Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithium battery separator equipment, and particularly relates to a heat treatment device for lithium battery separators. Background Technique
[0002] The four key materials of lithium-ion batteries are the positive electrode material, negative electrode material, electrolyte, and separator. The main function of the separator is to isolate the positive and negative electrodes and prevent electrons from passing through, while allowing ions to pass through, so as to complete the rapid transmission of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes during the charge and discharge process. The quality of the separator directly affects the battery internal resistance, discharge capacity, cycle service life, and battery safety performance. The thinner the separator and the higher the porosity, the smaller the internal resistance of the battery and the better the high-rate discharge performance. In the structure of a lithium battery, the separator is one of the key inner components. The performance of the separator determines the interface structure, internal resistance, etc. of the battery, and directly affects the characteristics such as the capacity, cycle, and safety performance of the battery. A separator with excellent performance plays an important role in improving the comprehensive performance of the battery.
[0003] In the prior art, lithium battery separators need to be heated by specific heat treatment equipment. For example, a heat treatment device for lithium battery separators with the publication number CN209880716U includes a preheating chamber, a heat treatment chamber, and a air supply chamber. The heat treatment chamber is arranged on one side of the preheating chamber, the air supply chamber is arranged on one side of the top of the preheating chamber, a vertical plate is arranged near the middle position of the top of the heat treatment chamber, a telescopic motor is arranged on one side of the vertical plate, and a telescopic sleeve rod is arranged on one side of the telescopic motor.
[0004] This kind of heat treatment equipment only dries and heats one side of the lithium battery separator, and the dryer cannot directly contact the other side of the separator, so the heat treatment and drying efficiency of the two sides are different. At the same time, the air flowing through the return pipe of this kind of heat treatment equipment directly blows the film surface of the separator, causing the separator to shake itself and become slack, which affects the transmission.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-4As shown in the figure, the utility model relates to a heat treatment device for a lithium battery separator, which includes a bottom plate 1. A preheating structure 3 and a heating structure 2 are arranged on the top surface of the bottom plate 1. The preheating box 6 of the preheating structure 3 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the bottom plate 1. Entering grooves 32 and communicating grooves 33 are respectively formed on both sides of the preheating box 6, and the entering groove 32 and the communicating groove 33 are located in the same horizontal plane. A heating box 21 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the bottom plate 1, and the surface of the heating box 21 is in contact with the surface of the preheating box 6 where the communicating groove 33 is arranged. A communicating groove 33 is arranged on the surface of the heating box 21 close to the preheating box 6, and the two communicating grooves 33 communicate the inner cavities of the heating box 21 and the preheating box 6. Two driving rollers 22 are rotatably arranged in the inner cavity of the heating box 21. An outlet film groove 26 is arranged on the surface of the heating box 21 far from the preheating box 6. The outlet film groove 26 is arranged along the horizontal direction and is located below the communicating groove 33. A horizontal dryer 23 is arranged on the top surface of the heating box 21, and the output end of the horizontal dryer 23 is arranged on the top surface of the inner cavity of the heating box 21. A vertical dryer 24 is arranged in the inner cavity of the heating box 21, and the vertical dryer 24 is located on the inner wall of the heating box 21 close to the preheating box 6. A heat conducting plate 25 is fixedly connected to the surface of the vertical dryer 24, and the heat conducting plate 25 is located in the inner walls of the heating box 21 and the preheating box 6. A reflux structure 4 is arranged between the surfaces of the heating box 21 and the preheating box 6. The reflux pipe 41 of the reflux structure 4 is fixedly arranged on the sides of the preheating box 6 and the heating box 21, and both ends of the reflux pipe 41 are communicated with the inner cavities of the preheating box 6 and the heating box 21. An installation tank 42 is arranged on the surface of the reflux pipe 41, and the inner cavity of the installation tank 42 is communicated with the reflux pipe 41 at both ends. Connecting plates 43 are fixedly arranged on the inner walls on both sides of the installation tank 42, and an exhaust fan 44 is fixedly connected between the two connecting plates 43. Communication holes are formed on the surface of each connecting plate 43. The processing film 5 to be heat treated passes through the inner cavities of the preheating box 6 and the heating box 21. The processing film 5 enters the inner cavity of the preheating box 6 from the entering groove 32 of the preheating box 6, and then enters the inner cavity of the heating box 21 through the communicating groove 33. The surface of the processing film 5 is successively in contact with the two driving rollers 22 with different heights, and then is discharged from the outlet film groove 26 of the heating box 21.
[0025] When using this lithium battery separator heat treatment device, the processing film 5 is set from the inlet tank 32 and enters the inner cavity of the heating box 21 through the connecting tank 33. The processing film 5 sequentially contacts the driving rollers 22 in the inner cavity of the heating box 21 for tensioning and bending, and then is discharged from the film outlet slot 26. At this time, the horizontal dryer 23 and the vertical dryer 24 of the heating box 21 are started. Due to the two driving rollers 22 with different heights, the processing film 5 is bent. The horizontal dryer 23 can heat-treat the upper surface of the lower processing film 5. The bent processing film 5 inclines the lower surface towards the vertical dryer 24, and the vertical dryer 24 can heat-treat the lower surface of the processing film 5. The inner cavity of the heating box 21 can simultaneously perform heat treatment on the upper and lower surfaces of the processing film 5, so as to uniformly and comprehensively perform heat treatment on the separator of the lithium battery. Before entering the heating box 21, the preheating box 6 preheats the processing film 5. The drying box heats the inner cavity temperature of the heating box 21, and the hot air in the heating box 21 can enter the return pipe 41. At this time, the exhaust fan 44 is started, and the exhaust fan 44 drives the hot air to flow back into the preheating box 31 through the return pipe 41, thereby increasing the temperature inside the preheating box 6. The processing film 5 first enters the preheating box 6 for preheating and preliminary heat treatment to avoid rapid expansion of the film surface due to too high a heat treatment temperature gradient of the processing film 5. During the operation of the vertical dryer 24, the heat generated by the vertical dryer 24 itself will be transferred through the heat conduction plate 25, further increasing the heat of the preheating box 6. At the same time, the excellent heat transfer performance of the heat conduction plate 25 itself can dissipate the temperature of the vertical dryer 24 itself, avoiding the inner wall of the heating box 21 being scalded by the high-temperature vertical dryer 24. The return pipe 41 is arranged on the sides of the heating box 21 and the preheating box 6 to prevent the returned air from blowing the film surface of the processing film 5 and causing the processing film 5 to not be tensioned.
[0026] The working principle of the present utility model: A lithium battery separator heat treatment device of the present utility model is provided with a heating structure 2. The driving roller 22 of the heating structure 2 can bend and incline the processing film 5 in the inner cavity, so that the horizontal dryer 23 and the vertical dryer 24 simultaneously heat-treat the upper and lower surfaces of the processing film 5, making the heat treatment on the surface of the lithium battery separator uniform; by setting a preheating structure 3, the processing film 5 enters the preheating box 6 for preheating to avoid film surface deformation caused by too high a temperature gradient in the heating box 21; the return pipe 41 can drive the hot air in the heating box 21 into the preheating box 6. The return pipe 41 is arranged on the sides of the preheating box 6 and the heating box 21 to prevent the blown hot air from directly blowing the film surface of the processing film 5 and causing the processing film 5 to not be tensioned during movement; during the operation of the vertical drying box, its own heat can be transferred to the preheating box 6 through the heat conduction plate 25, thereby increasing the temperature of the preheating box 6; at the same time, the vertical drying box itself can dissipate heat through the heat conduction plate 25 to avoid the inner wall of the heating box 21 being scalded by the vertical drying box.
[0027] The above has described in detail an embodiment of the present utility model, but the above content is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and cannot be considered as limiting the scope of implementation of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made according to the scope of application of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope covered by the patent of the present utility model.
