[0003] Lithium battery cells are made up of wound positive and negative electrodes and a separator. During the manufacturing process, adhesive tape is applied to the left and right edges of the coating on the positive and negative electrodes, as well as the back of the electrodes. This prevents damage to the ion exchange membrane at the junction of the positive and negative aluminum and copper foils, and prevents separator damage and short circuits. Existing techniques typically use manual labor with mechanical assistance to apply green adhesive tape to the electrodes. However, this method cannot precisely control the adhesive tape placement, resulting in a low yield rate. Utility Model Content

[0014] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art should fall within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0015] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , is a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The material strip product correction mechanism is suitable for lithium battery electrode gluing, including a gluing module, a transmission module, an ultrasonic sensor 1, an optical corrector 2 and a control unit (not shown in the figure).

[0016] The gluing module is used to stick the material tape 100 (i.e., the tape) to the specified position of the product 200 (i.e., the electrode), and includes a support plate 3, a reel 4, a plurality of rollers 5, a first gluing roller 6, a first heater 7, and a second gluing roller 8. The support plate 3 is vertically arranged and perpendicular to the surface of the product 200. The reel 4, the plurality of rollers 5, the first gluing roller 6, the first heater 7, and the second gluing roller 8 are all installed on the support plate 3. The reel 4 is used to wind the material tape 100, and the first gluing roller 6, the first heater 7, and the second gluing roller 8 are moved along the transmission direction of the product 200 (e.g., Figure 1 Several rollers 5 are arranged in sequence (in the direction of the arrow). A plurality of rollers 5 are located between the unwinding reel 4 and the first gluing roller 6. The supply tape 100 is wound onto the first gluing roller 6. A first heater 7 is used to heat-melt the tape 100 so that it adheres to the product 200. It is located between the first gluing roller 6 and the second gluing roller 8 to heat the product 200 and the tape 100 located between the two rollers.

[0017] The transmission module is used to drive the gluing module to translate left and right in a direction perpendicular to the transmission direction of the product 200, and includes a motor 9, a screw (not shown in the figure) and a screw nut (not shown in the figure). The screw is connected to the motor 9 in a transmission manner, which is perpendicular to the transmission direction of the product 200 and parallel to the surface of the product 200. The screw nut is installed on the screw, and the support plate 3 is fixed on the screw nut. When the motor 9 drives the screw to rotate, the screw nut translates along the screw, thereby driving the gluing module to translate. In order to make the gluing module move more smoothly, in this embodiment, the transmission module also includes two guide rails 10, the guide rails 10 are parallel to the screw, and the support plate 3 is slidably mounted on the guide rails 10 through a slider.

[0018] The ultrasonic sensor 1 is used to detect the position deviation of the material strip 100 and feed it back to the control unit. It is located between two adjacent rollers 5. In this embodiment, the arrangement direction of the rollers 5 on both sides of the ultrasonic sensor 1 is parallel to the conveying direction of the product 200.

[0019] The optical deflection corrector 2 is used to detect the position deviation of the product 200 and feed it back to the control unit. It is located on one side of the first glue roller 6 and upstream of the first glue roller 6 in the transmission direction of the product 200.

[0020] The control unit can calculate the difference between the ultrasonic sensor 1 and the optical deflection corrector 2 in real time based on the data fed back from the two, and control the operation of the transmission module to compensate for the difference.

[0021] To ensure that the material strip 100 is more firmly attached to the product 200, in this embodiment, the gluing module further includes a second heater 11. The second heater 11 is mounted on the support plate 3 and is located between the first gluing roller 6 and the optical deflection corrector 2 in the direction of transmission of the product 200. The second heater 11 is used to preheat the product 200 before it enters the area of the first gluing roller 6. When the product 200 passes through the area of the second heater 11, the second heater 11 can heat the product 200 at room temperature to a temperature suitable for gluing. In this way, when the preheated product 200 moves to the first gluing roller 6, the material strip 100 can be attached to the product 200. After the subsequent secondary pressing by the second gluing roller 8, the bonding strength between the product 200 and the material strip 100 can be enhanced to prevent false adhesion.

[0022] In addition, considering that there is a section of the product 200 between the second heater 11 and the first glue roller 6 where the material tape 100 is not adhered, it will cool down after power failure. After power is turned on, the second heater 11 cannot heat this section, and the material tape 100 cannot be adhered to this section of the product 200. In this embodiment, a heating tube (not shown in the figure) is provided in the first glue roller 6. The first glue roller 6 can heat the material tape 100 at the same time when extruding the material tape 100, thereby better ensuring the bonding effect of the adhesive on the material tape 100.

[0023] During the process of attaching the material tape 100, the product 200 is heated by the second heater 11 to a temperature at which the material tape 100 can be adhered. The unwinding disk 4 rotates, and the material tape 100 passes through several rollers 5 and then merges with the product 200 at the first gluing roller 6. The first gluing roller 6 squeezes the material tape 100 to cover the specified position on the surface of the product 200 and heats the material tape 100. Then, the product 200 covered with the material tape 100 is heated by the first heater 7 so that the material tape 100 adheres to the product 200. After that, it is squeezed again by the second gluing roller 8 so that the material tape 100 is firmly attached to the product 200. In the above process, the deviation of the material strip 100 is detected by the ultrasonic sensor 1 and fed back to the control unit, and then the deviation of the product 200 is detected by the optical deflection corrector 2 and fed back to the control unit. The control unit automatically calculates the difference between the two in real time based on the data provided by the ultrasonic sensor 1 and the optical deflection corrector 2, and then drives the gluing module to move through the transmission module to compensate for the difference, thereby realizing deviation correction and making the material strip 100 accurately fit the specified position of the product 200.

[0024] The above embodiments are only preferred implementation methods of the present invention, but the implementation methods of the present invention are not limited to the above embodiments. Any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications that do not deviate from the spirit and principles of the present invention should be regarded as equivalent replacement methods and are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
