Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithium battery diaphragm processing and manufacturing, in particular to a wet-process diaphragm waste edge guiding device. Background Art
[0002] Lithium battery separators are one of the core components of lithium-ion batteries, and their performance directly impacts battery safety, energy density, and cycle life. Currently, lithium battery separator production primarily utilizes dry and wet processes, with the common process flow encompassing the following key steps: extrusion casting, sheet casting, stretching, heat treatment, winding, and slitting.
[0003] After the diaphragm is produced, due to material deformation or operating errors, the diaphragm edge is prone to width fluctuation and thickness deviation. The diaphragm needs to be trimmed to ensure product dimensional accuracy and neat edges.
[0004] Existing technology generally uses waste edge guide wheels to achieve continuous trimming. The process is as follows: After the trimming tool removes the diaphragm edge material, the guide groove structure of the guide wheel constrains the transmission direction of the waste edge material, and then the waste edge material is stably recovered by the winding equipment. However, in actual production, it has been found that when the production line speed is fast or the trimming width is large, the high speed operation or wide trimming width causes the restraining capacity of the guide groove to decrease. The trimmed edge material easily escapes the guide groove, resulting in broken edge and film on the production line, causing significant production capacity loss.
[0005] In summary, in the prior art, when the production line speed is fast or the cutting width is large, the cut edge material is easy to fall out of the guide groove, resulting in broken edges and films on the production line, causing significant production capacity loss. Utility Model Content

[0028] The specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific implementation methods.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the utility model provides a wet-process diaphragm waste edge guide device, comprising a spiral ring guide 1, a support rod 2 and a sleeve 3, wherein one end of the support rod 2 is fixedly connected to the spiral ring guide 1, and the other end of the support rod 2 is rotatably installed in the sleeve 3, and the support rod 2 and the sleeve 3 are coaxially arranged;
[0030] The spiral ring guide 1 extends in a continuous spiral shape, forming a spiral structure with at least two ring layers in a natural state, and there is a gap between adjacent ring layers;
[0031] The installation and use process of the wet-process diaphragm waste edge guide device in actual production is as follows: after the production line passes the film normally, the lower cutter cuts out the diaphragm waste edge, and the operator presses the diaphragm waste edge from the outermost end of the spiral ring guide 1 into the central ring layer of the spiral ring guide 1, passes through it, and then leads the diaphragm waste edge to the waste edge machine for winding, and then installs the sleeve 3 to a suitable position on the production line, and matches its height with the winding position of the waste edge machine to complete the installation of the guide device and the guiding installation operation of the diaphragm waste edge.
[0032] After the actual application verification of the guide device, specifically, after a long period of edge trimming verification on the edge trimming machine, it was found that after using the device, there has never been a case of edge or film breakage due to mismatch of waste edge direction.
[0033] During the installation and use process of the wet-process diaphragm waste edge guide device in actual production, the installation position of the sleeve 3 is between the waste edge machine and the lower cutter mounting seat.
[0034] The spiral ring guide 1 extends in a continuous spiral shape, forming a spiral structure with at least 2 ring layers in a natural state; and a waste edge installation notch 4 is formed between the radial outermost end of the spiral ring guide 1 and the adjacent ring layer. This arrangement has the following advantages: First, by setting up the spiral ring guide 1 that extends in a continuous spiral shape, a spiral structure with multiple ring layers is formed, which effectively limits the guide path within a limited space, increases the contact area between the diaphragm waste edge and the spiral ring guide 1, and maintains the stability of the spiral ring guide 1 structure. In addition, the spiral structure can maintain the stability of the diaphragm waste edge guidance and avoid the occurrence of derailment problems; second, the waste edge installation notch 4 formed realizes the rapid installation of the diaphragm waste edge, so that the diaphragm waste edge can quickly enter the central ring layer of the spiral ring guide 1 through the waste edge installation notch 4, and enter The diaphragm waste edge can be quickly guided to ensure that the diaphragm waste edge is transported in an orderly manner during high-speed production, avoiding material accumulation or jamming; thirdly, since one end of the support rod 2 is fixedly connected to the spiral ring guide 1, the other end of the support rod 2 is rotatably installed in the sleeve 3, and the diaphragm waste edge is arranged in the central ring layer of the spiral ring guide 1, this design has adaptive characteristics and can be applied to production under different working conditions, reducing the need for manual intervention, and realizing the automatic connection of the entire process of diaphragm waste edge from output to winding, so that the guiding device can still maintain stable guidance under high-speed transmission conditions or wide cutting conditions, significantly reducing the frequency of production line shutdown maintenance.
[0035] The wet-process diaphragm waste edge guiding device can rotate arbitrarily in the sleeve 3 because the support rod 2 is rotatably installed in the sleeve 3, and the support rod 2 and the sleeve 3 are coaxially arranged. Based on this, the spiral ring guide 1 fixedly installed on the top of the support rod 2 can also rotate with the rotation of the support rod 2, thereby realizing universal adjustment of the direction of the diaphragm waste edge, better matching the need of the diaphragm waste edge to move back and forth.
[0036] The wet-process diaphragm waste edge guide device, through the structural innovation of the spiral ring guide 1 and the coordinated action of the spiral ring guide 1, the support rod 2 and the sleeve 3, can synergistically improve the production continuity and system reliability of the wet-process diaphragm production line, effectively avoid the risk of derailment, and improve operating efficiency.

This is because within this range, if the number of sides of the polygon is 3, the triangular cross-section forms a stable structure, and its torsional strength can be improved; if the number of sides of the polygon is 4, anisotropic strengthening can be achieved, and its bearing capacity is improved; if the number of sides of the polygon is 5-8, the number of sides increases and approaches a circular shape, and the compressive stability is improved. At the same time, the local strengthening characteristics of the polygonal edges are retained, and under the same load, the deformation amount is effectively reduced. In addition, within the range of 3-8, the processing and manufacturing cost of the spiral ring guide 1 is effectively reduced.

[0056] Specifically, the outermost end of the spiral ring guide 1 is connected to the top of the support rod 2 in an integrally formed manner;
