[0035] The embodiment of the present application provides an infrared heating device, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The infrared heating device includes a lampshade 1, an infrared lamp 2 and multiple connecting structures 3. The lampshade 1 includes a top shell 110 and a bottom shell 120. The top shell 110 and the bottom shell 120 are assembled to form a receiving space 130. The bottom shell 120 is made of transparent material. The infrared lamp 2 is arranged in the receiving space 130. Multiple connecting structures 3 are arranged on the top of the top shell 110 along the length direction of the top shell 110. The bottom of the connecting structure 3 is connected to the lampshade 1, and the top of the connecting structure 3 is connected to the physical structure 6. The height of the lampshade 1 and the infrared lamp 2 can be adjusted by adjusting the length of the connecting structure 3 at the bottom of the physical structure 6.

[0036] Illustratively, the infrared heating device of the present application is applied to a coating oven for battery electrode production.

[0037] Optionally, the physical structure 6 may be a box body of a coating oven, or the physical structure 6 may also be a prefabricated mounting steel plate.

[0038] In the embodiment of the present application, the infrared heating device includes a lampshade 1, an infrared lamp 2 and a plurality of connecting structures 3. The infrared lamp 2 is arranged in the accommodating space 130 of the lampshade 1. The plurality of connecting structures 3 are arranged on the top of the top shell 110 along the length direction of the top shell 110. The bottom of the connecting structure 3 is connected to the lampshade 1, and the top of the connecting structure 3 is connected to the solid structure 6. By adjusting the length of the connecting structure 3 at the bottom of the solid structure 6 to adjust the height of the lampshade 1 and the infrared lamp 2, the drying effect of the infrared lamp 2 can be adaptively changed according to the actual needs of the electrode, thereby avoiding the processing of different material thicknesses. The problem that the distance between the infrared lamp 2 and the electrode cannot be adjusted when drying the electrode is solved, and the problem of cracking, burning or slow drying speed on the surface of the electrode is avoided, thereby improving the drying effect of the battery electrode; at the same time, the top shell 110 and the bottom shell 120 of the lampshade 1 are spliced ​​to form a accommodating space 130, and the bottom shell 120 is made of transparent material, so as to achieve the effect of completely wrapping the infrared lamp 2 in the lampshade 1, and isolate the flammable and explosive gases volatilized during drying from the high-temperature infrared lamp 2, avoiding the explosion caused by the NMP gas generated by drying contacting with the high-temperature infrared lamp 2 when reaching a specific concentration range.

[0039] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connecting structure 3 includes a screw 310, two first locking nuts 320 and two second locking nuts 330. The bottom of the screw 310 passes through the top shell 110 and extends into the accommodating space 130, and the top of the screw 310 passes through the entity structure 6; the two first locking nuts 320 are screwed to the screw 310 and are arranged on opposite sides of the top shell 110. The two first locking nuts 320 are used to fix the top shell 110 and the screw 310 together; the two second locking nuts 330 are screwed to the screw 310 and are arranged on opposite sides of the entity structure 6. The height of the lampshade 1 and the infrared lamp 2 can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the two second locking nuts 330.

[0040] Specifically, the two first locking nuts 320 rotate toward each other, and once the two first locking nuts 320 press against the two side surfaces of the top shell 110, the top shell 110 and the screw 310 are secured together. It is understood that the principle by which the two first locking nuts 320 secure the solid structure 6 and the screw 310 together is similar to that described above and will not be further elaborated here. To adjust the length of the screw 310 at the bottom of the solid structure 6, the position of the two second locking nuts 330 is adjusted to move the screw 310 upward or downward.

[0041] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connecting structure 3 is an electric telescopic rod, which can adjust the height of the lampshade 1 and the infrared lamp 2 more conveniently and quickly.

[0042] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 There are two connecting structures 3, which are respectively arranged at the two ends of the top surface of the top shell 110, and the load-bearing is relatively uniform.

[0043] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The infrared heating device also includes a plurality of spring clips 4 corresponding one to one with the plurality of connecting structures 3. The spring clips 4 are arranged in the accommodating space 130 and connected to the bottom of the connecting structure 3. The spring clips 4 are used to clamp the infrared lamp 2 and use elastic force to fix the infrared lamp 2. The loading and unloading is relatively convenient, which is convenient for subsequent maintenance or replacement.

[0044] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The infrared heating device also includes a cooling structure 5, which includes a mesh plate 510, an air inlet duct 520 and an air outlet duct 530. The mesh plate 510 is arranged in the accommodating space 130 and above the infrared lamp 2. The mesh plate 510 is fixed on the connecting structure 3; the air inlet duct 520 passes through the top shell 110, and the air inlet duct 520 is connected to the accommodating space 130 above the mesh plate 510. The air inlet duct 520 is used to transport cooling gas; the air outlet duct 530 passes through the top shell 110 and the mesh plate 510, and the air outlet duct 530 is connected to the accommodating space 130 below the mesh plate 510.

[0045] Through the above arrangement, the cooling gas can enter the interior of the lampshade 1 through the air inlet duct 520, and after reaching the mesh plate 510, it flows along the mesh plate 510 and flows through the mesh to the surface of the lamp tube of the infrared lamp 2, thereby reducing the temperature of the infrared lamp 2 and improving safety.

[0046] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The air inlet duct 520 and the air outlet duct 530 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the top surface of the top shell 110, and the mesh holes on the mesh plate 510 gradually increase from the end corresponding to the air inlet duct 520 to the end corresponding to the air outlet duct 530.

[0047] Specifically, the flow rate of the cooling gas close to the air inlet duct 520 is faster, and the flow rate of the cooling gas away from the air inlet duct 520 is slower. The mesh holes on the mesh plate 510 gradually increase from one end corresponding to the air inlet duct 520 to the end corresponding to the air outlet duct 530, so that the cooling gas of the mesh holes at various locations of the mesh plate 510 tends to be the same, thereby improving the uniformity of cooling and improving the cooling effect.

[0048] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Through holes are provided on the sides of both ends of the top shell 110 for the cable 210 of the infrared lamp 2 to pass through. The connection between the cable 210 and the through hole is coated with sealant, which can prevent external NMP gas from entering the lampshade 1 and prevent the cooling gas in the lampshade 1 from leaking and causing a reduction in the cooling effect.

[0049] Alternatively, the cable 210 may be connected to the inside and outside of the lampshade 1 using a KF connector.

[0050] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The inner side surface of the top shell 110 is coated with a reflective coating, or the inner side surface of the top shell 110 is polished to improve the reflectivity of the lampshade 1 to infrared light.

[0051] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bottom shell 120 is an explosion-proof quartz glass plate. The quartz glass plate has high mechanical strength, is hard and wear-resistant, and is not easy to be scratched. It also has many advantages such as not easy to change color and penetrate, good heat resistance, corrosion resistance and flame retardancy.

[0052] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0053] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that a person of ordinary skill in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present patent application shall be determined by the appended claims.
