[0078] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0079] The specific structure is as follows: Figures 1 to 9 As shown.

[0080] This embodiment provides an ultrasonic laser measuring instrument, including: a conveying assembly, a base 1, a driving assembly, a movable frame 2, and a measuring module; the conveying assembly includes a roller seat and a conveying roller for conveying electrode 3, the roller seat is disposed on the base 1, and the conveying roller is disposed on the roller seat; the driving assembly is disposed on the base 1, the movable frame 2 is disposed on the axial side of the conveying roller and is connected to the driving assembly for transmission, the end of the movable frame 2 facing the conveying roller is provided with a clearance notch for avoiding the electrode 3, the driving assembly is used to drive the movable frame 2 to reciprocate along the axial direction of the conveying roller, so that the movable frame 2 extends into and exits the conveying path of the electrode 3 on the conveying roller; the measuring module includes an ultrasonic probe group 4, a laser probe group 5, an ultrasonic calibration component 6, and a laser calibration component 7, the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 are both disposed on the end of the movable frame 2 facing the conveying roller, the ultrasonic calibration component 6 and the laser calibration component 7 are both disposed on the roller seat and respectively cooperate with the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5.

[0081] Specifically, base 1 serves as the basic platform for the measuring instrument, providing a stable support benchmark for the entire instrument; the conveyor assembly ensures the smoothness of the electrode 3's conveyor belt movement; the drive assembly provides stable power for the reciprocating motion of the movable frame 2; the high-precision measurement module, composed of ultrasonic probe group 4, laser probe group 5, ultrasonic calibration component 6, and laser calibration component 7, constitutes the core measurement system of the measuring instrument. These functional modules work collaboratively to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the measuring instrument, completely avoiding the radioactive hazards of traditional X-ray measurement methods. No special protective measures are required, greatly improving measurement safety. Furthermore, the dual data fusion of direct ultrasonic measurement and laser thickness compensation effectively overcomes the errors caused by material density variations in single laser measurement methods, improving data reliability. Simultaneously, it breaks through the limitations of traditional methods on the measurement environment, enabling accurate measurement in both dry and wet film conditions, expanding its applicability.

[0082] In this preferred embodiment, the base 1 is made of marble to reduce vibration during the operation of the measuring instrument.

[0083] In the optional technical solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown in the first embodiment, the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 are located on a first straight line and spaced apart, the first straight line being parallel to the conveying path of the electrode 3 on the conveying roller. A drive assembly drives a movable frame 2 to move the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5, enabling the movable frame 2 to scan the electrode 3 synchronously when extending into and exiting the conveying path of the electrode 3 on the conveying roller, i.e., scanning the same position at the same time node, with no time difference. This achieves synchronous acquisition of dual parameters in a single scan, and the measurement delay caused by the distance between the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 is eliminated through a space-time registration algorithm.

[0084] In the optional technical solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 8 As shown in the third embodiment, two drive components and two movable frames 2 are provided, and they are connected one-to-one in a transmission manner; the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 are respectively mounted on the two movable frames 2. The two drive components drive the two movable frames 2 to move the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 respectively, so that the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 can follow the movable frames 2 to perform parallel synchronous (no time difference) scanning measurement or alternating asynchronous (with time difference) scanning measurement on the electrode 3 to obtain the real-time areal density data of the electrode 3 material.

[0085] In the optional technical solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 7As shown in the second embodiment, the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 are located on a second straight line and spaced apart, the second straight line being parallel to the axis of the conveyor roller. A drive assembly drives a movable frame 2 to move the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5, allowing the movable frame 2 to asynchronously scan the electrode 3 as it extends into and exits the conveyor roller's path, meaning the scanning positions differ at the same time point, resulting in a time difference. The electrode 3 is then measured to obtain real-time areal density data of the electrode 3 material.

[0086] In the optional technical solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 9 As shown, in the fourth embodiment, two drive components and two movable frames 2 are provided, each connected in a one-to-one transmission manner, and two measurement modules are provided. The ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 in the two measurement modules are respectively mounted on the two movable frames 2. The two drive components drive the two movable frames 2 to move one measurement module, so that the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 in the two measurement modules can follow the movable frames 2 to perform parallel scanning measurements on the electrode 3 (the two movable frames 2 move synchronously without time difference, but the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 on the movable frames 2 are located on the second straight line and are spaced apart, so there is a time difference) or alternating scanning measurements (the two movable frames 2 move alternately with time difference, and the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 on the movable frames 2 are located on the second straight line and are spaced apart, so there is also a time difference) to obtain the real-time areal density data of the electrode 3 material. At this time, the ultrasonic probe group 4 and the laser probe group 5 in each measurement module are located on the second straight line and are spaced apart, and the second straight line is parallel to the axis of the conveyor roller.

[0088] Specifically, motor 9 is connected to ball screw 11 via coupling 10. Nut seat 14 on ball screw 11 is connected to guide rail mounting base 12. Movable frame 2 is fixed to the upper surface of guide rail mounting base 12, and its lower surface is connected to linear guide rail 8 via slider 13. An external power source drives motor 9 to rotate, enabling the drive assembly to achieve the required precise reciprocating linear motion. The structure is simple, and the drive is stable.

[0089] In this embodiment, the limiting structure includes a photoelectric sensor 21 and / or a collision avoidance block 22; preferably, the photoelectric sensor 21 and the collision avoidance block 22 are provided simultaneously to improve the limiting effect. A photoelectric switch sensor is installed next to the linear guide rail 8, and the photoelectric sensor 21 limits the stroke of the moving parts. A collision avoidance block 22 is installed below the ball screw 11 to prevent mechanical runaway from damaging the drive components. The collision avoidance block 22 is made of polyurethane, but it is not limited to this; other materials can also be used, as long as they meet the requirements.

[0090] In this embodiment, the linear guide rails 8 can be set in any number as needed.

[0091] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the roller seat includes a front column 15, a rear column 16, and a mounting base 17. The conveying roller includes two main rollers 18 and two auxiliary rollers 19. The front column 15 and the rear column 16 are arranged opposite to each other on the top of the base 1, and the movable frame 2 is arranged on the side of the rear column 16 away from the front column 15. The two ends of the two main rollers 18 are respectively arranged on the front column 15 and the rear column 16, and the gap between the two main rollers 18 corresponds to the movable frame 2. The two auxiliary rollers 19 are arranged on the side of the base 1 through the mounting base 17, and one auxiliary roller 19 is located in front of the two main rollers 18, and the other auxiliary roller 19 is located in rear of the two main rollers 18.

[0092] Specifically, two main rollers 18 are mounted on the upper surface of the base 1 via front column 15 and rear column 16, and the two main rollers 18 are kept parallel and horizontal to each other. Two auxiliary rollers 19 are fixed to the two sides of the base 1 via mounting base 17. Four conveying rollers provide support for the electrode 3, ensuring that the electrode 3 is stable during conveying.

[0093] In this embodiment, the front column 15 can be integrally formed, and one of the two main rollers 18 is set accordingly; or it can be made separately, and one of the main rollers 18 is set accordingly; the rear column 16 is the same, and will not be described in detail here.

[0094] In this preferred embodiment, the movable frame 2 is C-shaped, but it is not limited to this and can be other shapes to meet the requirements. The ultrasonic probe assembly 4 and the laser probe assembly 5 are both mounted on the movable frame 2, and the ultrasonic calibration component 6 and the laser calibration component 7 are fixed to the front column 15. The movable frame 2 is hollow inside, and the circuit board 24 is installed inside the movable frame 2. The power cord and signal cable are connected to the outside through the interior of the movable frame 2 and the cable chain 23.

[0095] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the base 1 is provided with lifting rings 20 for hoisting. The number of lifting rings 20 can be any number, as long as the hoisting requirements are met.

[0096] In this preferred embodiment, four lifting rings 20 are provided, and the four lifting rings 20 are installed on the side of the base 1 to facilitate the hoisting of the measuring instrument.

[0097] This embodiment provides a method for compensating the surface density of an electrode 3, which is implemented using the aforementioned ultrasonic laser measuring instrument. Therefore, the technical advantages and effects achieved by this method for compensating the surface density of the electrode 3 include those achieved by the aforementioned ultrasonic laser measuring instrument, which will not be elaborated here.

The data is fed back to the coating closed-loop system.
