Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithium battery production, in particular to a slurry fluidity detection device. Background Art

[0002] The fluidity of lithium-ion battery slurry is an important parameter that reflects the quality of coating. It will directly affect the electrical performance of the subsequent finished battery (capacity, voltage and interface). As time changes, the slurry will have a certain degree of sedimentation or viscosity changes, resulting in changes in the slurry fluidity. There are currently two common methods for testing slurry fluidity. One is to measure the distance a certain volume or weight of slurry flows on an inclined plane per unit time, and the other is the weight of the slurry passing through a certain pore or screen per unit time. Although the above two technologies can currently compare the fluidity of the slurry to a certain extent, they are both one-time tests and cannot repeatedly measure the fluidity of the slurry within a certain time interval, which is insufficient. Summary of the invention

[0003] The utility model aims to at least improve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the utility model proposes a slurry fluidity detection device.

[0007] A connecting device, used for detachably arranging the screen between the openings of the two transparent containers;

[0008] A driving device is used to drive the connecting device to rotate.

[0009] According to the slurry fluidity detection device of the utility model, after a transparent container is filled with slurry, the screen is fixed between two transparent containers through the connecting device. During detection, the driving device drives the connecting device to rotate 180° and then starts timing. The time required for the slurry to completely flow from one transparent container to another transparent container is recorded, and the fluidity of the slurry can be obtained. When it is necessary to repeat the measurement of the fluidity of the slurry, the driving device drives the connecting device to rotate 180° again.

[0010] In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the transparent container has a circular opening portion and a truncated cone-shaped remaining portion, so that the connecting device can connect the two transparent containers and the screen together.

[0013] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the driving device includes a round rod, a vertical rod and at least two blocks, the vertical rod is provided with a through hole and at least two slots, the through hole is communicated with the slots, the block is arranged on the round rod, the round rod cooperates with the through hole, the block cooperates with the slots, the transparent container containing the slurry is below another transparent container, during testing, the round rod is moved so that the two blocks thereon are disengaged from the slots, the timing is started after the round rod is rotated 180°, the round rod is moved in the opposite direction so that the two blocks thereon cooperate with the slots, and the time required for the slurry to completely flow from one transparent container to another transparent container is recorded, and when repeated measurement is required, the above operation is repeated.
