Specific implementation manner
[0021] 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.
[0022] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , the present invention provides a technical solution:
[0023] In this technical solution, a recycling device for the positive electrode of a regenerated lithium iron phosphate battery includes a recycling treatment box 1. A partition board 2 is installed on the upper wall of the recycling treatment box 1. A placing cylinder 3 is inserted and installed on the upper wall of the partition board 2. A discharge chute 4 is opened on the upper wall of the partition board 2;
[0024] A motor 5 is installed on the inner wall of the recycling treatment box 1. The motor 5 is electrically connected to an external power source. A rotating disk 6 is installed at the output end of the motor 5. A fixed column 7 is installed on the upper wall of the rotating disk 6. The fixed column 7 is arranged below the discharge chute 4;
[0025] A positive electrode plate 8 of a lithium iron phosphate battery is inserted and installed in the placing cylinder 3. The end of the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery is wound and connected to the fixed column 7;
[0026] A ventilation hole 9 is opened on the side wall of the recycling treatment box 1. An air extraction mechanism 10 is inserted and installed in the ventilation hole 9. The output end of the air extraction mechanism 10 is connected to an external condensation device;
[0027] In this technical solution, the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery can be put into the placing cylinder 3 in a roll. It only needs to insert one end of the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery into the clamping groove 13 on the fixed column 7. Compared with the method of cutting and then putting it into the positive electrode plate rack proposed in the background technology, this device does not need to cut the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery, which is very convenient, saves the time required for cutting, and improves the recycling efficiency of the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery;
[0028] The placement cylinder 3 in this text is a mesh cylinder, and a through groove communicating with the discharge chute 4 is provided on the side wall of the placement cylinder 3, so that the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery can penetrate the placement cylinder 3 and be connected to the fixed column 7, and the electrolyte on the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery can also flow into the material receiving groove 16 through the placement cylinder 3.
[0029] In some technical solutions, the air extraction mechanism 10 includes an air extraction fan 11 and a transfer pipe 12. The air extraction fan 11 is installed on the side wall of the recycling and treatment box 1. The air extraction fan 11 is electrically connected to an external power supply. The input end of the air extraction fan 11 is inserted and installed in the ventilation hole 9, and the output end of the air extraction fan 11 is installed with a transfer pipe 12, and the transfer pipe 12 is connected to an external condensation device.
[0030] In this technical solution, after the air extraction fan 11 in the air extraction mechanism 10 is started, the air in the recycling and treatment box 1 can be pumped outwards and sent into the external condensation device through the transfer pipe 12, so that the electrolyte can follow the air into the external condensation device after volatilization and be condensed into a liquid electrolyte, effectively avoiding the pollution of the environment and the damage to the human body caused by the volatilized electrolyte, which is more environmentally friendly and safer;
[0031] In addition, by setting the air extraction fan 11, it can also effectively avoid the gas residue generated by the volatilization of the electrolyte in the recycling and treatment box 1, and prevent the staff from inhaling toxic air when taking out the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery, which affects their physical health.
[0032] In some technical solutions, a clamping groove 13 is provided on the side wall of the fixed column 7. A support rod 14 is installed on the upper wall of the rotating disk 6. The support rod 14 is arranged in the clamping groove 13, and the end of the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery can be inserted into the clamping groove 13.
[0033] In this technical solution, by setting the clamping groove 13 and the support rod 14, the end of the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery can be clamped, which is convenient for fixing the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery.
[0034] In some technical solutions, a heating plate 15 is installed in the inner cavity of the recycling and treatment box 1. The heating plate 15 is electrically connected to an external power supply. A material receiving groove 16 is installed on the upper wall of the heating plate 15, and the material receiving groove 16 is arranged below the placement cylinder 3.
[0035] In this technical solution, the heating plate 15 proposed in this text is a prior art. After being powered on, it can generate heat, so that the temperature in the recycling and treatment box 1 rises, and the residual electrolyte on the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery volatilizes;
[0036] The provision of the material receiving groove 16 can prevent the electrolyte from flowing onto the inner wall of the recycling and treatment tank 1, avoiding contamination of the device by the electrolyte. At the same time, since the material receiving groove 16 is provided above the heating plate 15 and the two are in close contact with each other, the heating plate 15 can quickly heat the material receiving groove 16, causing the electrolyte that has fallen into the material receiving groove 16 to volatilize.
[0037] In some technical solutions, a top ring 17 is sleeved outside the fixed column 7. The top ring 17 can slide up and down outside the fixed column 7. One end of a connecting rod 18 is installed on the side wall of the top ring 17, and the other end of the connecting rod 18 penetrates through the upper wall of the partition plate 2 and is installed with a pull rod 19.
[0038] In this technical solution, when the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery is processed and there is no electrolyte residue, the pull rod 19 can be pulled upward to drive the top ring 17 to move upward, pushing the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery out of the discharge slot 4 and outside the recycling and treatment tank 1, facilitating the staff to take the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery.
[0039] In some technical solutions, a scraper 20 is installed on the lower wall of the partition plate 2. There are two scrapers 20 in total. The two scrapers 20 are respectively arranged on both sides of the discharge slot 4, and both scrapers 20 can be in close contact with the side wall of the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery.
[0040] In this technical solution, the scraper 20 can scrape off the electrolyte remaining on the side wall of the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery, causing it to fall into the material receiving groove 16, improving the cleaning effect of the electrolyte.
[0041] Working principle: The positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery is placed in a roll in the placing cylinder 3, and then one end of the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery is clamped in the card slot 13 on the fixed column 7;
[0042] Start the motor 5, the exhaust fan 11 and the heating plate 15, so that the motor 5 drives the fixed column 7 to rotate slowly to wind the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery. During this process, the heating plate 15 is energized to generate heat, raising the temperature inside the recycling and treatment tank 1, causing the electrolyte remaining on the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery to volatilize. The volatilized electrolyte will be drawn into an external condensation device by the exhaust fan 11 and the transfer pipe 12 and re-condensed into electrolyte, effectively avoiding environmental pollution and human damage caused by the volatilized electrolyte, and being more environmentally friendly and safer;
[0043] When the electrolyte on the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery is processed, the pull rod 19 can be pulled upward to drive the top ring 17 to move upward, pushing the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery out of the discharge slot 4 and outside the recycling and treatment tank 1, facilitating the staff to take the positive electrode plate 8 of the lithium iron phosphate battery.
