Detailed implementation mode

[0024] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 - 4 , a carbonization device for negative electrode materials, including a main body device for external heating and overall rotation, and further including a transmission device installed inside the main body device for internal heating of negative electrode materials and meshing transmission. Twelve rotating components for separately rotating negative electrode materials after placement are evenly arranged in a circle around the transmission device.

[0026] In this embodiment: The main body device includes a frame 101. On both sides of the top of the frame 101, a driving roller 102 and a supporting roller 103 are symmetrically installed. In front of the driving roller 102, a motor 104 is installed. Between the driving roller 102 and the supporting roller 103, a carbonization furnace 105 is arranged. Inside the carbonization furnace 105, a heat insulation layer 106 is arranged. Inside the heat insulation layer 106, an external heating ring 107 is arranged. In front of the carbonization furnace 105, a furnace door 108 is installed. At the central position of the furnace door 108, a pressure relief pipe 109 is arranged. The heat insulation layer 106 is made of heat insulation ceramic material. The heat insulation layer 106 is bolted to the carbonization furnace 105. Open the furnace door 108, put the negative electrode material into the carbonization furnace 105, and then close the furnace door 108. The external heating ring 107 heats the negative electrode material from the outside under the heat preservation of the heat insulation layer 106. At the same time, the frame 101 supports the motor 104 to drive the driving roller 102 to drive the carbonization furnace 105 to rotate under the support of the supporting roller 103, so that the hot air inside the carbonization furnace 105 rotates and flows, ensuring the uniformity of the internal temperature. After carbonization, the carbonization furnace 105 is depressurized through the pressure relief pipe 109, and then the furnace door 108 is opened to take out the negative electrode material;

[0027] In this embodiment: The transmission device includes a support column 201. A fixed column 202 is provided at the top of the support column 201. An internal heating tube 203 is installed in front of the fixed column 202. A sun gear ring 204 is provided at the front end of the internal heating tube 203. The fixed column 202 is bolted to the internal heating tube 203. The support column 201 supports the internal heating tube 203 through the fixed column 202 to heat the negative electrode material from the inside. The sun gear ring 204 is used to drive the rotating assembly;

[0028] In this embodiment: The rotating assembly includes a fixed ring 301. A rotating shaft 302 is provided at the back of the fixed ring 301. A placement net 303 is installed in front of the fixed ring 301. An installation ring 304 is provided in front of the placement net 303. A planetary gear ring 305 is installed on the outside of the installation ring 304. The rotating shaft 302 is integrally formed with the fixed ring 301. The placement net 303 is made of silicon carbide. During the rotation of the carbonization furnace 105, the rotating assembly will revolve around the sun gear ring 204 following the carbonization furnace 105, while the sun gear ring 204 is fixed on the internal heating tube 203 and remains stationary. Therefore, the sun gear ring 204 will engage with the planetary gear ring 305 to drive the negative electrode material in the placement net 303 to rotate on its own under the support of the fixed ring 301 and the rotating shaft 302, making the negative electrode material heated more evenly and improving the carbonization quality.

[0029] Working principle: The shape and size of the placement net 303 are the same as those of the negative electrode material. When in use, open the furnace door 108, stuff the negative electrode material into the placement net 303, and then close the furnace door 108. The support column 201 supports the internal heating tube 203 through the fixed column 202 to heat the negative electrode material from the inside. The external heating ring 107 heats the negative electrode material from the outside under the heat preservation of the heat insulation layer 106. At the same time, the frame 101 supports the motor 104 to drive the power roller 102 to drive the carbonization furnace 105 to rotate under the support of the support roller 103, so that the hot air inside the carbonization furnace 105 rotates and flows, ensuring the uniformity of the internal temperature; during the rotation of the carbonization furnace 105, the rotating assembly will revolve around the sun gear ring 204 following the carbonization furnace 105, while the sun gear ring 204 is fixed on the internal heating tube 203 and remains stationary. Therefore, the sun gear ring 204 will engage with the planetary gear ring 305 to drive the negative electrode material in the placement net 303 to rotate on its own under the support of the fixed ring 301 and the rotating shaft 302, making the negative electrode material heated more evenly and improving the carbonization quality; after carbonization is completed, relieve the pressure of the carbonization furnace 105 through the pressure relief pipe 109, and then open the furnace door 108 to take out the negative electrode material.

[0030] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
