[0040] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application more clear, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0041] First, see Figure 1-3 The utility model discloses a pole piece cutting mechanism 1, which can cut the pole piece 2, cut the foil materials on both sides of the pole piece 2 that have not been coated, and retain the pole piece 2 that has been coated.
[0042] The electrode cutting mechanism 1 includes a transmission roller 11, a fixed component 12 and two cutting components 13. The cutting component 13 is used to cut the electrode 2. The two cutting components 13 are installed on the fixed component 12. The cutting component 13 is movably connected to the fixed component 12. The cutting direction of the cutting component 13 is parallel to the transmission direction of the electrode 2. The transmission roller 11 is in contact with the cutting mechanism, and the electrode 2 is transmitted between the transmission roller 11 and the cutting mechanism.
[0043] Specifically, on the electrode cutting mechanism 1, by installing a cutting component 13 on the conveyed electrode 2, the electrode 2 passes between the transmission roller 11 and the cutting mechanism during transportation, and the two ends are cut by the cutting component 13, so that the foil without coating treatment at both ends is cut. The cutting component 13 moves on the fixed component 12. By adjusting the position of the cutting component 13, it can be closer to the dividing line between the coated part and the uncoated part, so that the subsequent rolled electrode 2 can maintain the same thickness, avoiding the electrode 2 from warping when it is not rolled.
[0044] The fixing assembly 12 includes a fixing plate 121 and a mounting frame 122 . The fixing plate 121 is connected to the mounting frame 122 . The fixing plate 121 is located in a direction perpendicular to the transmission direction of the pole piece 2 .
[0045] The fixed plate 121 is provided with a movable groove 1211 , and the cutting assembly 13 is provided with a sliding portion 1341 at a position corresponding to the movable groove 1211 . The sliding portion 1341 and the knife holder 1311 are provided on two opposite surfaces, and the sliding portion 1341 cooperates with the movable groove 1211 .
[0046] Specifically, the cutting component 13 is installed in the movable groove 1211 of the fixed plate 121 through the sliding part 1341. Since the sliding part 1341 can move on the movable groove 1211, the cutting component 13 can move along the direction of the movable groove 1211. By moving the cutting component 13, the cutting position of the cutting component 13 can be adjusted to be closer to the boundary between the coated part and the uncoated part on the electrode 2.
[0047] The cutting assembly 13 includes a knife holder 1311 , a spindle 1312 , a cutter 131 , a connecting block 132 , a quick clamp 133 , a linkage rod 1331 , a fixing member 134 , a sliding member 1343 , a guide rail 1342 , a mounting plate 135 , and a limiting block 136 .
[0048] The cutter 131 is connected to the main shaft 1312, and the main shaft 1312 is arranged on the central axis of the cutter 131. The main shaft 1312 is arranged through the cutter seat 1311. The cutter 131 is circular. The cutter 131 and the pole piece 2 are arranged vertically relative to each other. The linkage rod 1331 respectively connects the quick clamp 133 and the connecting block 132, the connecting block 132 is connected to the cutter seat 1311, the guide rail 1342 is connected to the fixing member 134, the sliding member 1343 is slidably connected to the guide rail 1342, and the sliding member 1343 is connected to the connecting block 132. The limit block 136 and the mounting plate 135 are respectively installed at both ends of the fixing member 134, and the quick clamp 133 is arranged on the mounting plate 135.
[0049] The main shaft 1312 is arranged perpendicular to the linkage rod 1331. The main shaft 1312 can adjust the cutter 131 to move along the direction of the movable groove 1211. The main shaft 1312 is arranged through the knife seat 1311. The cutter 131 is installed at one end of the main shaft 1312. By adjusting the other end of the main shaft 1312, the cutting position of the cutter 131 can be adjusted.
[0050] The fixing member 134 is mounted on the fixing plate 121. The fixing member 134 is provided with a fastening hole for installing the fastener. The fixing plate 121 is provided with a mounting groove corresponding to the fastener, so that the cutting assembly 13 can be installed on the fixing plate 121. Limit blocks 136 and a mounting plate 135 are provided at both ends of the fixing member 134. The sliding portion 1341 is mounted on the fixing member 134. The sliding portion 1341 and the guide rail 1342 are respectively provided on two opposite surfaces of the fixing member 134. The fixing member 134 is mounted on the fixing plate 121 via the sliding portion 1341. The connecting block 132 and the limit block 136 are provided at the same end. The linkage rod 1331 is provided on the mounting plate 135 and the connecting block 132. The quick clamp 133 is provided on one side of the mounting plate 135. The linkage rod 1331 passes through the mounting plate 135 and connects to the quick clamp 133. The quick clamp 133 can drive the linkage rod 1331 to move, pull the connecting block 132 to move, thereby driving the knife holder 1311 and the cutter 131 away from or close to the transmission roller 11, adjusting the distance between the cutter 131 and the transmission roller 11, and improving the cutting effect of the cutter 131. The quick clamp 133 is provided to make it more convenient for the operator to adjust the cutter 131. The sliding member 1343 is installed on the connecting block 132. The sliding member 1343 can move up and down along the guide rail 1342. When the quick clamp 133 pulls the linkage rod 1331 to move, the sliding member 1343 drives the knife holder 1311 to move up and down along the guide rail 1342, so that the knife holder 1311 and the connecting block 132 move with the sliding member 1343.
[0051] Optionally, the connection block 132 is provided with a contact member 1322, and the contact member 1322 is connected to the connection block 132. The contact member 1322 abuts against the limit block 136. The contact member 1322 is provided with an elastic member. When the connection block 132 and the limit block 136 are close to each other, the limit block 136 compresses the elastic member of the contact member 1322, thereby preventing the quick clamp 133 from applying a force that causes the cutter 131 to drop too much, thereby preventing damage to the transmission roller 11 below.
[0052] Optionally, the connecting block 132 includes a fine-tuning screw 1321, which passes through the connecting block 132 and is connected to the knife seat 1311. By adjusting the fine-tuning screw 1321, the distance between the connecting block 132 and the knife seat 1311 can be adjusted, thereby fine-tuning the distance between the cutter 131 and the transmission roller 11, and the cutter 131 can adapt to cutting pole pieces 2 of different thicknesses.
[0053] Second, see Figure 4The utility model discloses a battery electrode sheet rolling device 100, which includes the above-mentioned electrode sheet cutting mechanism 1, rolling mechanism 3, unwinding mechanism 4, and winding mechanism 5. The unwinding mechanism 4 loads the uncut electrode sheet 2, the electrode sheet cutting mechanism 1 cuts the uncoated foil on both sides of the electrode sheet 2, the rolling mechanism 3 rolls the cut electrode sheet 2, and the winding mechanism 5 rolls the electrode sheet 2 after rolling.
[0054] It can be understood that for the battery electrode rolling device 100, the cutting mechanism can cut the two ends of the input electrode 2, so that the electrode 2 undergoing rolling treatment maintains the same thickness, avoids stress, prevents the entire electrode 2 from irregularly warping after rolling, and makes the edge of the winding mechanism 5 smooth after winding, ensuring the normal operation of subsequent production processes such as the slitting process.
