[0002] Lithium-ion battery is a highly efficient energy storage device, and the selection of its positive electrode material has an important influence on its performance. Among them, lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) is widely used as the positive electrode material of lithium-ion batteries due to its high energy density and good electrochemical properties. At present, in the process of preparing lithium cobalt oxide positive electrode materials, mixing is a key step, the purpose of which is to evenly mix various raw materials to ensure the quality of the final product. However, some problems may arise in the mixing process. For example, when the existing mixing equipment is running, some lithium carbonate will gather above the breathable cap due to its low true density and cannot enter the mixing system, resulting in a large deviation between the lithium content in the final mixed material and the calculated value, causing the material to be lithium-deficient, seriously affecting the mixing effect of the material, and then affecting the performance of the final product. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solution of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0029] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the utility model provides a high-speed mixer, the structural schematic diagram of which is shown in Figure 1 As shown, including:
[0030] The high-mixer body 31; the high-mixer body 31 includes a high-mixer upper cover 30 and a high-mixer air permeable cap 18 located above the high-mixer upper cover 30;
[0031] And a pulse backflush device 1 fixedly connected to the high-pressure mixer upper cover 30 via a support column 19.
[0032] In some embodiments of the present invention, a pulse back-blowing device 1 is installed above the high-mixer air cap 18, and a support column 19 of a certain height (1~5 cm, preferably 2~4 cm) is installed between the spray outlet and the high-mixer upper cover 30. If the height of the support column is lower than 1 cm, it will cause poor exhaust and affect the airflow of the mixing system. If it is higher than 5 cm, the spraying effect will be poor and the design requirements cannot be met. The number of support columns 19 is greater than or equal to 3, and can be specifically 3 to 6, so as to reduce the impact on the mixing system.
[0033] The pulse backflush device 1 provided by the utility model can intermittently generate pulse high-pressure airflow (0.1-1 MPa) to return the materials gathered in the high-mixer air cap 18 to the mixing system, thereby making the mixed materials more uniform and reducing abnormal material loss.
[0034] In the present invention, the design and installation position of the pulse back-blowing device 1 should ensure that it can effectively remove the materials on the high-mixer air cap 18 and will not interfere with the normal operation of the mixing system. Therefore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the position and angle of the pulse back-blowing device 1 are precisely controlled: the pulse back-blowing device 1 is directly above the high-mixer air cap 18, and the specific position is that the distance between the lower edge of the pulse back-blowing device 1 and the high-mixer upper cover 30 is 1 to 5 cm, and the angle is that the acute angle between the central axis of the pulse back-blowing device 1 and the high-mixer upper cover 30 is 87 to 90°, preferably 88 to 90°, and most preferably 90°. In the present invention, the position and angle of the pulse back-blowing device 1 can be achieved by using a precise positioning device and an angle measurement tool to ensure that the pulse back-blowing device 1 can be accurately aligned with the high-mixer air cap 18 and effectively remove the accumulated materials.
[0035] In the present invention, the structural schematic diagram of the pulse backflush device 1 is as follows Figure 2 As shown, including:
[0036] A throttle hole 17 through which the compressed air in the air tank 21 enters;
[0037] A front air chamber 13 connected to the throttle hole 17;
[0038] A diaphragm 14 isolating the front air chamber 13 and the rear air chamber 15;
[0039] a nozzle 16 in communication with the rear air chamber 15;
[0040] The nozzle is used to blow compressed air into the high-mixer air cap 18 .
[0041] In some embodiments of the present invention, the pulse backflush device 1 further comprises an air vent 12, and the air vent 12 is connected to the atmosphere to reduce the internal pressure.
[0042] In some embodiments of the present invention, the pulse back-blowing device 1 further comprises an armature 11; the armature is connected to a pulse controller, and when a signal is received, the armature is sucked up and opened by electromagnetic force to achieve the purpose of rapid passage of compressed air.
[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, in order to reduce the impact of the pulse back-blowing device 1 on the complexity and maintenance cost of the equipment, it is necessary to optimize its design and material selection. The present invention selects lightweight and durable materials to make the pulse back-blowing device 1 to reduce the weight of the equipment and reduce the need for maintenance. At the same time, the design of the pulse back-blowing device 1 is simple, that is, after the pulse controller 20 receives the signal, the compressed air in the air tank 21 enters the front air chamber 13 and the rear air chamber 15 through the armature 11 switch and the throttle hole 17, and then the gas is ejected through the nozzle 16, and the equipment is easy to install and maintain, that is, it can be fixed above the high-mixer air cap through a columnar bracket. The diaphragm 14 that isolates the front air chamber 13 and the rear air chamber 15 is a porous diaphragm, which can adjust the pressure of the compressed gas to reach the nozzle to ensure the blowing effect on the material on the high-mixer air cap 18. In some embodiments of the present invention, in order to reduce the impact of the pulse back-blowing device 1 on the material properties, it is necessary to monitor and adjust its working parameters. By monitoring the working time (0.1~2 s), working frequency (1~30 min / time) and other parameters of the pulse backflush device 1, it is ensured that it will not have excessive impact on the temperature or humidity and other properties of the material.
[0044] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by the utility model mainly solves the following technical problems:
[0045] 1) A pulse back-flushing device 1 is installed above the high-mixer air cap 18 to mix the materials evenly and avoid a large deviation between the lithium content of the mixed materials and the calculated value; 2) The installation position and angle of the pulse back-flushing device 1 can be precisely controlled to effectively remove the accumulated materials; 3) The use of the pulse back-flushing device 1 may increase the complexity and maintenance cost of the equipment. The utility model selects lightweight and durable materials to reduce the weight of the equipment and the need for maintenance; 4) The use of the pulse back-flushing device may affect the properties of the material, such as changing the temperature, humidity, magnetism, etc. of the material. The utility model monitors the working parameters of the pulse back-flushing device 1 to ensure that it does not have an excessive impact on the temperature or humidity and other properties of the material.
[0046] In order to further illustrate the utility model, the following examples are used to explain the utility model in detail. The experimental raw materials used in the following examples of the utility model are all common commercial products. Example 1

The compressed air pushes the uneven materials gathered on the high-mixer air cap 18 back to the mixer, and the remaining gas is discharged through the gap between the support columns. The pulse backflush 1 is connected to the atmosphere through the vent hole 12 to reduce the internal pressure.
