Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of lithium battery manufacturing, in particular to a high-speed coating integrated machine for lithium battery gravure extrusion. BACKGROUND
[0002] The coating of lithium battery foil is one of the core processes of battery manufacturing, and its purpose is to uniformly coat the active material slurry on the metal foil to form a coating with consistent thickness and no defects. Traditional coating techniques include gravure coating and extrusion coating. Gravure coating transfers the slurry through a gravure roller engraved with micron-sized cells, which is suitable for thin-layer and high-precision coating. Extrusion coating extrudes the slurry through a slit die, which is suitable for high-viscosity slurry and thick coating. The high-speed coating integrated machine for lithium battery gravure extrusion combines the advantages of gravure coating and extrusion coating, saving equipment space, greatly improving the utilization rate, speed, and precision of the equipment, and improving the drying efficiency and time of the gravure coating and extrusion coating equipment. The high-speed coating integrated machine for lithium battery gravure extrusion can achieve low COV value, ensure the uniformity of the coating surface density, and improve product quality. However, the existing high-speed coating integrated machine for lithium battery gravure extrusion still has the following problems:
[0003] 1. Since the gravure coating layer is thin and dries quickly, the coating speed is about 100 m / min. However, the extrusion coating layer is thick, and the single extrusion coating machine has a coating speed of about 80 m / min. When integrated into a gravure extrusion integrated machine, if the overall coating speed is 100 m / min, the coating layer is prone to wrinkling and cracking after drying in the extrusion coating oven.
[0004] 2. The existing oven exit conversion mechanism is provided with multiple over rollers. The over rollers contact the two surfaces of the lithium battery foil, apply a certain pressure and support to the lithium battery foil, eliminate the deformation of the lithium battery foil due to the non-uniformity of the coating layer or thermal stress, and ensure that the lithium battery foil remains flat during transmission. However, during extrusion coating, the single-sided oven cannot completely dry the slurry on the lithium battery foil coating. When the over rollers contact the two surfaces of the lithium battery foil, the slurry on the lithium battery foil is easily attached to the over rollers of the oven exit conversion mechanism, resulting in uneven coating and affecting the quality of the coating layer.

[0041] As shown in Figure 11 , the air nozzle 30305 is provided with a movable baffle 30306 in the middle, and the movable baffle 30306 balances the temperature difference between the coating area on the lithium battery foil 1, i.e. high heat absorption and empty foil area, i.e. low heat absorption, by adjusting the air flow direction and air volume distribution, to avoid local overheating or insufficient heating, reduce the edge lifting and cracking of the lithium battery foil 1 on both sides; the air nozzle 30305 includes a mesh type air nozzle, an outer eight air nozzle, and an inner eight air nozzle.

[0044] As shown in Figure 5As shown, the extrusion oven 30300 folds three layers, including the first baking layer 30301, the second baking layer 30302 and the third baking layer 30303, the first baking layer 30301 is fixed with one oven hull 30304 at the top and the bottom, the upper side air nozzle 30305 of the oven hull 30304 at the top blows air downward, the lower side air nozzle 30305 of the oven hull 30304 at the bottom blows air upward, and the upper side air nozzle 30305 and the lower side air nozzle 30305 are arranged in an up-down staggered manner, and 100-120℃ double-sided air blowing drying is adopted; the second baking layer 30302 is fixed with one oven hull 30304 at the bottom, the lower side air nozzle 30305 of the oven hull 30304 at the bottom blows air upward, and 90-110℃ lower side single-sided air blowing drying is adopted; the third baking layer 30303 is fixed with one oven hull 30304 at the top, the upper side air nozzle 30305 of the oven hull 30304 at the top blows air downward, and 80-100℃ upper side single-sided air blowing drying is adopted, which increases the drying length in a limited space and can improve the coating speed.
[0045] In actual implementation, the folding design of the oven baking layer, the optimization of the oven air nozzle 30305 design and the temperature control solve the problem that the coating speed is limited by the oven, and the problem of wrinkling and cracking easily occurs in the drying of the extrusion coating oven.
[0046] As shown in Figure 1 , the extrusion oven 30300 component 3030 of the extrusion coating system 3000 includes an A-side oven component 3031 and a B-side oven component 3032; each extrusion oven component 3030 is composed of a plurality of series-connected extrusion ovens 30300, the extrusion oven 30300 includes a first baking layer 30301, a second baking layer 30302 and a third baking layer 30303, and the first baking layer 30301 and the second baking layer 30302 are provided with the first oven outlet conversion mechanism 3040; the second baking layer 30302 and the third baking layer 30303 are provided with the second oven outlet conversion mechanism 3050.
[0047] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 9 , the traction machine 3062 includes a two-layer traction mechanism 3060 and a one-layer traction mechanism 3090, the A-side oven component 3031 and the B-side coating mechanism 3070 are provided with the two-layer traction mechanism 3060, and the B-side oven component 3032 and the winding system 4000 are provided with the one-layer traction mechanism 3090, the two-layer traction mechanism 3060 includes a two-layer material outlet deviation device 3061, a traction machine 3062 and a laser ray integrated machine 3063 arranged in sequence; the one-layer traction mechanism 3090 includes a one-layer material outlet deviation mechanism 3091, a one-layer traction machine 3062 and a laser ray integrated machine 3063 arranged in sequence.
[0048] As shown in Figure 10 The winding system 4000 includes a winding deviation correction device 4010 and a winding device 4020.
[0049] As shown in Figure 1 And Figure 8 A climbing system is also included, which includes an A-surface climbing mechanism 3020 and a B-surface climbing mechanism 3080. The A-surface climbing mechanism 3020 is arranged between the A-surface coating mechanism 3010 and the A-surface oven assembly 3031. The B-surface climbing mechanism 3080 is arranged between the B-surface coating mechanism 3070 and the B-surface oven assembly 3032.
[0050] As shown in Figure 2 In the first oven exit conversion mechanism 3040, two deviation correction rollers, one suction roller 3041 and one deviation correction roller are arranged in sequence. Compared with the prior art oven exit conversion mechanism, the number of over rollers is reduced. Since the lithium battery foil 1 is dried by the first drying layer 30301, the A surface or the B surface is not completely dry. Therefore, when the lithium battery foil 1 enters the first oven exit conversion mechanism 3040, the un-dried coating surface does not contact the deviation correction roller and the suction roller 3041, so that the paste on the lithium battery foil 1 does not adhere to the over roller, causing uneven coating. At the same time, since the first drying layer 30301 uses 100-120°C double-sided up-down staggered air nozzles 30305 to blow hot air from different angles to the foil, a convection effect is formed, reducing the warping deformation caused by single-sided heating. A variety of air nozzles 30305 are combined to blow and dry, ensuring that the hot air uniformly covers the full width of the lithium battery foil 1, avoiding local drying too fast or too slow. Two deviation correction rollers are arranged in sequence for pre-deviation correction, which preliminarily corrects the transverse deviation of the lithium battery foil 1. The suction roller 3041 adsorbs the lithium battery foil 1 by negative pressure, making it adhere to the roller surface and eliminating local wrinkles. The last deviation correction roller of the mechanism finely adjusts the lithium battery foil 1, ensuring that the foil is completely centered before entering the next drying layer.
[0051] As shown in Figures 3-4 In the second oven exit conversion mechanism 3050, a plurality of deviation correction rollers and a plurality of suction rollers 3041 are arranged in sequence. Compared with the prior art oven exit conversion mechanism, the use of over rollers is reduced. The second oven exit conversion mechanism 3050 forms an air cushion through the air floating roller 30511 roller surface or the high-pressure air jet nozzle on both sides, so that the lithium battery foil 1 is suspended and transmitted in a non-contact state, relying on the air flow buoyancy to evenly distribute the tension and reduce the risk of deformation.
[0052] As shown in Figures 3-4As shown, the second out-of-oven conversion mechanism 3050 includes a second out-of-oven conversion mechanism type I 3051 and a second out-of-oven conversion mechanism type II 3052, which differ in that different numbers of the air float roller 30511 and the deviation correction roller are arranged according to the installation position.
[0053] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the first baking layer 30301 outlet in the same oven is provided with the adsorption roller 3041, and the baking layer outlet other than the first baking layer 30301 is provided with the air float roller 30511. Such a combined use mode realizes high-quality transmission of the lithium battery foil 1.
[0054] The out-of-oven conversion mechanism of the present application, although reducing the over roller compared with the prior art out-of-oven conversion mechanism, through the combined use of the adsorption roller 3041 of the first out-of-oven conversion mechanism 3040 and the air float roller 30511 of the second out-of-oven conversion mechanism 3050, even if the over roller is removed, the lithium battery foil 1 can still be transmitted flat, and the problem of uneven coating caused by the attachment of sizing material on the over roller is also solved.
[0055] Since the prior art first out-of-oven conversion mechanism uses an over roller, the over roller has two surface contacts with the lithium battery foil 1, that is, the lithium battery foil 1 is controlled by double-sided friction; after the over roller is changed to the adsorption roller 3041 of the present application, the adsorption roller 3041 has one surface contact with the lithium battery foil 1, that is, the lithium battery foil 1 is controlled by single-sided friction, and when the speeds of the two sides of the lithium battery foil 1 are different, the problem of deviation will occur, and when the speeds of the two sides of the lithium battery foil 1 are the same but the rotation speed of the adsorption roller 3041 is different, the problem of slipping will occur, therefore, the speeds of the two sides of the lithium battery foil 1 need to be monitored in real time.
[0056] The high-speed coating all-in-one machine for the intaglio extrusion of the lithium battery of the present application further includes a control system (not shown in the figure), which is used to receive the signals transmitted by other systems, and sends command signals to other systems after discriminant analysis.
[0057] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, a roller shaft encoder (not shown in the figure) is connected to the roller shaft of the adsorption roller 3041, which is used to read the rotation speed ω of the adsorption roller shaft, and an ultrasonic speed sensor (not shown in the figure) is arranged on the left and right sides of the bottom of the first out-of-oven conversion mechanism 3040, which is used to measure the left side linear speed V L and the right side linear speed V R of the lithium battery foil 1 on the output end of the adsorption roller 3041, the roller shaft encoder and the ultrasonic speed sensor are electrically connected with the control system, and the control system reads the roller shaft rotation speed ω, the left side linear speed V L and the right side linear speed V R at a set interval time s, respectively, and makes deviation correction and slipping determination:
[0058] 1. Calculate the linear velocity of the adsorption roller V0= ω·r
[0059] Wherein: V0 is the linear velocity, unit m / s; ω is the roller shaft speed, unit rad / s; r is the adsorption roller radius, unit m;
[0060] 2. Deviation correction determination
[0061] If V L ≠ V R , it means that the lithium battery foil 1 has a lateral deviation; the lateral deviation Δ is determined by the left and right speed difference of the lithium battery foil 1: Δ = |V L -V R |; When monitoring the left and right speed V L and V R of the lithium battery foil 1, even if there is no deviation, the actual measured value may have a small difference due to sensor error or slight vibration, so a threshold Δ' = η·V0 is set;
[0062] Wherein: Δ' is the deviation correction threshold, unit m / s; η is the proportional coefficient, unit %; In actual implementation, η takes 0.5-2%;
[0063] When Δ> Δ', it is determined that V L ≠ V R needs to be corrected, then adjust the parallelism of the axis of the adsorption roller 3041 or the tension distribution until the left and right forces are balanced; If the deviation is frequent, the roller shaft installation angle needs to be calibrated or the lithium battery foil 1 tension uniformity needs to be checked.
[0064] When Δ≤ Δ', it is determined that V L = V R , then no correction is needed, and the next step of slip determination is continued;
[0065] 3. Slip determination
[0066] If V L = V R ≠ V0, it means that there is overall slip between the adsorption roller and the foil, and the slip coefficient ξ needs to be calculated:
[0067]
[0068] Wherein: V 平 is the average value of V L and V R , unit m / s; ξ is the slip coefficient, unit %;
[0069] Set ξ' as the slip threshold, unit %, in actual implementation, ξ' takes 1-3%;
[0070] When ξ>ξ', it is determined that the slip occurs, the adsorption roller 3041 pressure is increased, and the feeding speed is reduced until ξ≤ξ'; if the slip occurs frequently, the surface of the adsorption roller 3041 is checked for wear.

[0079] Step six, B-side extrusion coating: the lithium battery foil 1 enters the pre-coating deviation correcting device 3011 to be corrected, to ensure that the starting position of B-side extrusion coating is accurate; then enters the B-side coating machine 3071, the active material slurry is extruded and coated on the B-side of the lithium battery foil 1 by the coating machine die, to cover the gravure coating, then enters the wet film thickness gauge 3013 to detect the wet film thickness, and according to the detection result, the die gap or the feeding pressure is adjusted in real time; the lithium battery foil 1 enters the oven through the B-side climbing mechanism 3080 at a designed angle, to reduce the tension mutation;
