Moreover, a first feature being “above”, “above”, and “above” a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature.

[0061] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an electrode production device, which includes a stirring and breaking up device 100, a roller forming device 200, a guide unwinding device 300, a thinning device 400, a composite unwinding device 500, a roller composite device 600 and a winding device 700.
[0062] In some embodiments, before use, the powdered electrode material is easily agglomerated due to accumulation, thereby affecting the subsequent forming and thinning processes. For this reason, the stirring and breaking device 100 is used to stir and break the electrode material, the roller forming device 200 is located at the discharge end of the stirring and breaking device 100, and the roller forming device 200 is used to roll the electrode material from the stirring and breaking device 100 into an electrode film. The guide unwinding device 300 is located in the downstream direction of the roller forming device 200, and the guide unwinding device 300 has at least one unwinding position. The thinning device 400 is located at the discharge end of the guide unwinding device 300. The device 400 thins the electrode film formed by the roll-forming device 200, the composite unwinding device 500 is located at the discharge end of the thinning device 400, the composite unwinding device 500 has at least two unwinding positions, wherein at least one of the two unwinding positions can realize the winding function, the roller-compounding device 600 is located at the discharge end of the composite unwinding device 500, the roller-compounding device 600 is used to roll-compound multiple coils from the composite unwinding device 500 to form electrode sheets, and the winding device 700 is located at the discharge end of the roller-compounding device 600, and the winding device 700 is used to wind up the electrode sheets from the composite unwinding device 500.
[0063] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to prevent the electrode material from agglomerating, the electrode material is stirred and dispersed by the stirring and dispersing device 100, so that it can be better fed. The dispersed material will enter the roll forming device 200, and the electrode material will be initially formed by the roll forming device 200, that is, the electrode material is rolled to form an electrode film. Next, the initially formed electrode film from the roll forming device 200 will pass through the guide unwinding device 300 and finally be transported to the thinning device 400. The initially formed electrode film is rolled and thinned again by the thinning device 400, so as to reduce the thickness of the electrode film to reach the predetermined thickness. Set the thickness and density, and then the thinned electrode film is transported to the rolling composite device 600 through the composite unwinding device 500. It should be noted that the composite unwinding device 500 has at least two unwinding stations, specifically two stations, one of which unwinds the collector aluminum foil, and the other unwinds the rolled electrode film. Then, the electrode film and the current collector from the unwinding station of the composite unwinding device 500 and the electrode film from the thinning device 400 are roll-compounded and connected in the rolling composite device 600. After the composite connection, the electrode is formed, and finally it is rolled up by the winding device 700. The above is the process of electrode production.
[0064] It should be noted that when the electrode film cannot meet the thickness requirement after roller thinning by the thinning device 400, the composite unwinding device 500 can realize the unwinding position for rewinding, and the electrode film roll after winding is transported to the unwinding position of the guide unwinding device 300, and then passes through the thinning device 400 for thinning again until the electrode film can meet the thickness requirement.
[0065] Furthermore, the electrode film unwound by the composite unwinding device 500 is located below the current collector, and the electrode film from the thinning device 400 is located above the current collector, that is, the electrode film is composited on both the upper and lower surfaces of the current collector to form a complete electrode.
[0066] In this embodiment, with the cooperation of the composite unwinding device 500 and the guided unwinding device 300, the electrode film that does not meet the requirements after the initial thinning by the thinning device 400 can be thinned again or multiple times, so that the thickness of the electrode film meets the use requirements.
[0067] In some embodiments, the stirring and dispersing device 100 includes a barrel (not shown in the figure), dispersing blades (not shown in the figure), a conveyor belt (not shown in the figure) and a motor (not shown in the figure), etc. Specifically, a dispersing blade is rotatably installed in the material channel, and the dispersing blade is installed on the rotating shaft of the motor. The dispersing blade is driven by the motor, and the material channel also has a discharge port, and a conveyor belt is provided at the discharge port. It can be understood that the motor drives the dispersing blade to rotate to disperse the electrode material in the barrel, and the dispersed electrode material is conveyed to the roller forming device 200 through the conveyor belt at the outlet for the initial forming of the electrode film. The above is the working process of the stirring and dispersing device 100.
[0068] It can be understood that the scattering blades can be scattering rods, that is, multiple scattering rods are evenly spaced on the outer surface of the motor shaft, so that the scattering function can also be achieved. Furthermore, in order to drive the scattering blades to rotate, a reducer can be installed on the output shaft of the motor. By reducing the speed of the motor, its torque is increased to provide sufficient power for scattering.
[0069] It should be noted that a heating device is provided between the conveyor belt and the roller forming device 200, and specifically, the electrode material can be heated in a preset infrared manner.
[0070] The roll forming device 200 includes a forming frame 210, two forming rollers 220, two first limiting rollers 230, an oiling assembly 240, a hair removal assembly 250, a plurality of first guide rollers 260 and a tensioning adjustment device 900, wherein the forming rollers 220 are rotatably mounted on the forming frame 210, a first preset gap is formed between the two forming rollers 220, the first limiting rollers 230 are located on both sides of the two forming rollers 220, the outer surface of the first limiting rollers 230 is in contact with the forming rollers 220, and the oiling assembly 240 is located in the feeding direction of the forming rollers 220. The oiling assembly 240 is used to apply lubricating liquid to the forming roller 220, the hair removal assembly 250, the hair removal assembly 250 is located in the discharge direction of the forming roller 220, the hair removal assembly 250 is used to scrape off the electrode material on the outer surface of the forming roller 220, the first guide roller 260 is rotatably installed on the forming frame 210, the first guide roller 260 is used to guide the electrode film, the tensioning adjustment device 900 is installed on the forming frame 210, the tensioning adjustment device 900 is set on the electrode film conveying path, the tensioning adjustment device 900 is used to provide tension for the electrode film conveying.
[0071] See also Figure 3 As shown, the electrode material from the stirring and breaking device 100 passes through the first preset gap between the two forming rollers 220 to initially form the electrode film. Since the extrusion molding of the electrode material can easily cause the forming roller 220 to deform, a first limiting roller 230 is provided at the position of each forming roller 220. The outer surface of the first limiting roller 230 is tightly attached to the forming roller 220 to prevent it from deforming.
[0072] Furthermore, the position of the formed electrode film is guided by a plurality of first guide rollers 260 so that it can be transported downstream along a preset route, and during the transportation process, the electrode film is always in a tensioned state by providing a tension adjustment device 900 to prevent wrinkles due to insufficient tension.
[0073] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in order to prevent the electrode material from sticking to the surface of the forming roller 220, an oiling assembly 240 is arranged above the forming roller 220. Specifically, the oiling assembly 240 includes a first mounting plate 241 fixedly mounted on the forming frame 210, and a contact block 242 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the first mounting plate 241. The curvature of the surface of the contact block 242 is adapted to the forming roller 220, and the contact block 242 has an oil inlet and an oil outlet. It can be understood that the oil inlet is connected to the oil inlet pipe 243, and the oil outlet is toward the outer surface of the forming roller 220. The lubricating oil is coated on the surface of the forming roller 220 through the oil outlet, and the lubricating oil prevents the electrode material from sticking to the forming roller 220.
[0074] See also Figure 3 and5 A hair removal assembly 250 is provided below the forming roller 220, and the pole piece material that may exist on the outer surface of the forming roller 220 after film formation is removed by the hair removal assembly 250. Specifically, the hair removal assembly 250 includes a first rotating shaft 251, a cutting plate 252 is installed on the first rotating shaft 251, a fixing plate 253 is provided below the cutting plate 252, and a screwing member 254 is installed on the fixing plate 253. The distance between the cutting plate 252 and the outer surface of the forming roller 220 is adjusted by screwing the screwing member 254. Under the action of twisting, the cutting plate 252 contacts the surface of the forming roller 220. As the forming roller 220 rotates, the electrode material that may exist on its outer surface is scraped off under the action of the cutting plate 252 to prevent affecting the initial forming of the electrode film. A first suction pipe 255 is provided on one side of the cutting plate 252. The electrode material scraped off from the outer surface of the forming roller 220 is sucked under negative pressure through the first suction pipe 255. It can be understood that the first suction pipe 255 is connected to a negative pressure generating device, which can be a negative pressure machine, etc.
[0075] The guide unwinding device 300 includes a mounting frame 310, a plurality of second guide rollers 320, a first unwinding assembly 330, a first cutter 340, a second suction pipe 350 and a tensioning adjustment device 900, wherein the mounting frame 310 is located on the downstream side of the roll forming device 200, the second guide roller 320 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 310, the second guide roller 320 is used to guide the pole film initially formed from the roll forming device 200 to the thinning device 400, the first unwinding assembly 330 is mounted on the mounting frame 310, and the first unwinding assembly 330 is mounted on the mounting frame 310. Component 330 is used to unwind the electrode film wound from the composite unwinding device 500, the first cutter 340 is set on the path of conveying the electrode film from the roller forming device 200, the first cutter 340 is used to remove the burrs of the electrode film, the second suction pipe 350 is located on one side of the first cutter 340, the second suction pipe 350 is used to suck the burrs cut off by the first cutter 340, the tensioning adjustment device 900 is installed on the unwinding path of the first unwinding component 330, the tensioning adjustment device 900 is used to provide tension to the unwound electrode film.
[0076] See also Figure 6As shown, the electrode film initially formed by the roll forming device 200 is transported to the thinning device 400 for thinning through the path formed by each second guide roller 320. In the transport path, a first cutter 340 is installed on the mounting frame 310. The electrode film from the roll forming device 200 is trimmed by the first cutter 340 to remove the burrs or burrs that may exist on the outer surface of the initially formed electrode film to prevent affecting the final electrode quality. Correspondingly, a second extraction roller 320 is also provided on one side of the first cutter 340. The suction tube 350 sucks away the scraped burrs through the second suction tube 350. Furthermore, in order to be able to scrape the burrs or burrs at different positions, the guide rail 360 is installed on the mounting frame 310, and the first cutter 340 is slidably installed on the guide rail 360. The cutting position is changed by moving the first cutter 340. Correspondingly, the second suction tube 350 should also change with the position change of the first cutter 340, so that the suction port of the second suction tube 350 is located at the position of the first cutter 340.
[0077] Furthermore, in order to further thin the electrode film that does not meet the thickness requirement, a first unwinding assembly 330 is also installed on the mounting frame 310, and a plurality of second guide rollers 320 are also provided on the unwinding path of the first unwinding assembly 330. The unwinding path is guided by the second guide rollers 320. A tensioning adjustment device 900 is also installed on the unwinding path. The tensioning adjustment device 900 provides tension for the unwound electrode film to prevent wrinkles caused by insufficient tension from affecting the final molding effect.
[0078] See also Figure 7As shown, the first unwinding assembly 330 includes a connecting plate 331, a driven plate 332 is slidably mounted on the bottom surface of the connecting plate 331, a first linear driving member 333 is mounted on the upper surface of the connecting plate 331, a driving end of the first linear driving member 333 is connected to the driven plate 332, and the first linear driving member 333 drives the driven plate 332 to move linearly.

In the present embodiment, the unwinding shaft 335 is an inflatable shaft, and the unwinding shaft 335 is used to place the pole piece film roll that is thinned again. It can be understood that when the unwinding shaft 335 is unwinding, if the pole piece film is offset, the driven plate 332 is driven to move by the first linear driving member 333, thereby changing the position of the unwinding shaft 335. The position of the pole piece membrane is now corrected. The end face of the suspended side of the unwinding shaft 335 has a supporting hole for support.

The height of the bearing seat 3363 is adjusted by tightening the bolts 3365, so that the support shaft 3364 can smoothly enter the supporting hole for support.
[0079] Furthermore, when it is necessary to place or remove the material roll on the unwinding shaft 335, first, the connection between the support shaft 3364 and the unwinding shaft 335 is released, that is, the support shaft 3364 withdraws from the support hole at the end of the unwinding shaft 335, and then the second linear drive member 3361 drives the movable plate 3362 to move so that the support shaft 3364 leaves the axial position of the unwinding shaft 335 to prevent collision with the support shaft 3364, the movable plate 3362 and other components during unloading.
[0080] In this embodiment, a tension sensor is provided at the position of the second guide roller 320 at the position of the first cutter 340, and the tension of the pole piece film at this time is detected by the sensor, so as to facilitate the tension adjustment device 900 to adjust the tension of the pole piece film. Furthermore, the second guide roller 320 at the position of the first cutter 340 is driven by a motor, specifically a servo motor.

The circumferential surface of the second limiting roller 430 abuts against the circumferential surface of the thinning roller 420. A third guide roller 440 is rotatably mounted at the feed end and the discharge end of the thinning roller 420.
[0082] participate Figure 8 As shown, the transported electrode film is thinned by two thinning rollers 420. Specifically, a second preset gap is formed between the two thinning rollers 420. The second preset gap is the thickness of the electrode film after thinning. This gap can be adjusted according to needs and is not limited here. In order to prevent the thinning roller 420 from deforming, a second limiting roller 430 is provided at the position of each thinning roller 420. The outer surface of the second limiting roller 430 contacts the outer surface of the thinning roller 420 to prevent the thinning roller 420 from deforming. It can be understood that the diameter of the second limiting roller 430 is larger than the diameter of the thinning roller 420, so that the second limiting roller 430 is more rigid and less prone to deformation.
[0083] Please continue reading Figure 8 As shown, in order to enable better loading and unloading, a third guide roller 440 is provided at the feeding port and the unloading port of the thinning roller 420, and the path of the electrode film before and after thinning is guided by the third guide roller 440.

[0087] Please continue reading Fig. 9 As shown, in this embodiment, a suction tube is also provided on one side of the second cutter 530. After the second cutter 530 removes the burrs or burrs on the outer surface of the electrode film, the removed burrs or burrs are sucked away by the suction tube to prevent the removed burrs or burrs from falling on the electrode film and causing damage to it.
[0088] like Fig.10 As shown, if the thickness of the electrode film after thinning by the thinning device 400 cannot meet the requirements, the electrode film is rolled up in the third unwinding assembly 560 of the composite unwinding device 500, and the electrode film that cannot meet the thickness requirements is guided to the position of the third unwinding assembly 560 for rolling up through the fourth guide roller 520, the fifth guide roller 550 and the sixth guide roller 570. The rolled electrode film is transported to the guide unwinding device 300 for re-rolling and thinning until it meets the use requirements.
[0089] In this embodiment, the structure of the third unwinding assembly 560 is the same as that of the first unwinding assembly 330 , and therefore, the structure of the third unwinding assembly 560 will not be described in detail herein.
[0090] The structure of the second unwinding component 540 can be composed of an unwinding air shaft, a brake, etc., and the unwinding speed is controlled by the magnetic powder brake.
[0091] In this embodiment, since there are multiple fourth guide rollers 520, fifth guide rollers 550 and sixth guide rollers 570, in order to facilitate the control of the unwinding tension, a corresponding tension sensor is installed at one of the fourth guide rollers 520, fifth guide rollers 550 and sixth guide rollers 570 to sense the tension of the electrode film and the current collector, thereby adjusting the tension.
[0092] The roller-pressed composite device 600 includes a composite frame 610, on which two composite rollers 620 are rotatably mounted, a third preset gap is defined between the two composite rollers 620, a seventh guide roller 630 is installed at the feed end and the discharge end of the composite roller 620, and a heating component 640 is also provided at the feed end of the composite roller 620.
[0093] See also Fig.11 As shown, two composite rollers 620 are installed on the composite frame 610, and a third preset gap is formed between the two composite rollers 620. Since the two composite rollers 620 need to rotate to roll and composite the current collector and the two pole piece films to form the pole piece, the third preset gap is the thickness of the pole piece.
[0094] Specifically, the seventh guide roller 630 needs to be provided at both the feeding end and the discharging end of the composite roller 620 , and the seventh guide roller 630 is used to guide the current collector and the electrode film as well as the composite-formed electrode.
[0095] Furthermore, in order to enable the electrode film on the upper and lower sides to be fully compounded on the current collector, a heating component 640 is set on the upper and lower sides of the feed port position of the third preset gap, and the electrode film on the upper and lower sides of the current collector is heated by the heating component 640, so that the electrode film can be fully compounded on the current collector.

A heating lamp 643 is provided on the side of the lifting plate 641 facing the electrode membrane. The electrode membrane is heated by irradiation with the heating lamp 643. It can be understood that when it is necessary to adjust the temperature of heating the electrode membrane, it is only necessary to control the power of the heating lamp 643, that is, when the temperature needs to be increased, the power of the heating lamp 643 is increased to produce a higher temperature to meet the needs of the electrode membrane. When the temperature needs to be reduced, it is only necessary to reduce the power of the heating lamp 643 to reduce the temperature. It should be noted here that the third linear drive member 642 drives the lifting plate 641 to change the position of the heating lamp 643 in order to avoid the electrode membrane and prevent it from direct contact with the electrode membrane.
[0098] Exemplarily, the third linear drive member 642 may be a cylinder.
[0099] Please continue reading Fig.11 As shown, since the electrode film after being compounded by the two compound rollers 620 still has a certain temperature, it is necessary to cool the electrode film.
