Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithium ion battery production coating, in particular to a device for preventing dark marks from being generated in lithium ion battery coating. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries have the characteristics of high energy density, long cycle life, high safety and fast charging and discharging. They have important applications in various fields of the national economy, including automobiles and electronic information.

[0003] As one of the most complex and critical links in the production of lithium batteries, the coating process affects the energy density, cycle life and safety of lithium batteries. Although the setting parameters of the oven wind frequency and temperature have been defined in the process documents in the coating production, there are fluctuations in the wind frequency and temperature in the actual production. At the same time, the surface density of the coating will exceed the standard upper limit when the coating is started, which will cause the pole roll to not be completely dried in the oven after coating, and it will leave the oven in a wet film or slightly wet film state. At this time, the film will contact the second coating back roller and the wet slurry will stick to the roller. If the sticky roller slurry cannot be cleaned up in time, the sticky roller area will lift up the foil at the corresponding position, shortening the gap between the foil and the coating lip during coating, resulting in a coating surface density lower than the normal area. After the pole roll is compacted by roller, it will be a dark mark defect and appear periodically. This defect occurs in the positive electrode coating, and black spots will form in the dark mark area after the battery cell is made, affecting the battery capacity and cycle life; if this defect occurs in the negative electrode coating, lithium precipitation will occur in the dark mark area after the battery cell is made, affecting the battery safety. The general practice in the industry is to stop the coating machine at a fixed time and use the stop window to manually clean the backing roller. However, the slurry sticking to the roller during the coating process cannot be cleaned in time. When the backing roller is adhered to the slurry, the coating machine is running continuously, and the abnormality cannot be found by naked eyes under the dynamic conditions of foil feeding. At the same time, dark marks cannot be found on the pole rolls that have not been rolled and compacted. Therefore, when the production staff finds the dark marks, the coated pole rolls produced during this period may have defects, resulting in batch quality problems.
