[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Example: Figure 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a swing roller assembly for lithium battery production, including a wall panel 1. The wall panel 1 has two symmetrically distributed components. The top of the two wall panels 1 is fixedly fitted with a first bearing 11 with a seat. The middle of the first bearing 11 is fixedly fitted with a rotating shaft 2. The two ends of the rotating shaft 2 are fixedly fitted with swing arms 3. The two ends of the rotating shaft 2 are machined with steps. The steps are fixedly fitted with fixed seats 21. The top of the swing arm 3 is movably sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 2. The top of the swing arm 3 is fixedly mounted on the fixed seat 21 to fix the rotating shaft 2 and the swing arm 3, thereby facilitating the rotation of the swing arm 3 along the rotating shaft 2.

[0028] The bottom of the swing arm 3 is provided with a floating roller 4, one of the wall panels 1 is provided with a swing assembly 5 on the side near the swing arm 3, and the other wall panel 1 is provided with an auxiliary mechanism 7 on the side near the rotating shaft 2.

[0029] The swing assembly 5 includes a cylinder seat shaft 51, which is fixedly installed on one of the wall plates 1 near the swing arm 3. A rotating seat 511 is rotatably sleeved on the end of the cylinder seat shaft 51 away from the wall plate 1. A low-friction cylinder 52 is fixedly installed on the side of the rotating seat 51 away from the cylinder seat shaft 51 by bolts. The thrust output by the low-friction cylinder 52 is constant and controllable, and the tension can be precisely controlled. A sleeve 53 is fixedly installed on the drive end of the low-friction cylinder 52. A cylinder rod shaft 54 ​​is rotatably clamped on the side of the sleeve 53 away from the low-friction cylinder 52. The end of the cylinder rod shaft 54 ​​away from the sleeve 53 is fixedly clamped on the swing arm 3. By controlling the opening of the low-friction cylinder 52, the swing arm 3 is pushed to rotate along the rotating shaft 2, thereby controlling the floating roller 4 to swing automatically.

[0030] The auxiliary mechanism 7 includes a large gear 71 and a potentiometer bracket 72. The large gear 71 is movably sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 2 and is fixedly installed on the top of the swing arm 3. The potentiometer bracket 72 is fixedly installed on the wall plate 1. A precision potentiometer 73 is fixedly installed at the end of the potentiometer bracket 72. A small gear 74 is fixedly installed at the input end of the precision potentiometer 73. The large gear 71 and the small gear 74 are meshed together. When the swing arm 3 rotates, the large gear 71 drives the small gear 74 to rotate, which in turn controls the precision potentiometer 73. The rotation angle of the rotating shaft 2 is transmitted to the precision potentiometer 73, which outputs the rotation angle as an electrical signal to provide feedback on the current tension change of the membrane.

[0031] A protective cover 75 is fixedly installed on the outside of the potentiometer bracket 72. The large gear 71, potentiometer bracket 72, precision potentiometer 73 and small gear 74 are all located in the protective cover 75. By setting the protective cover 75, the large gear 71, potentiometer bracket 72, precision potentiometer 73 and small gear 74 are protected.

[0032] Two pressure plates 6 are fixedly installed on the inner side of the wall panel 1. A hydraulic damper 61 is fixedly installed on the pressure plate 6. The two hydraulic dampers 61 are located on both sides of the swing arm 3. By setting the two hydraulic dampers 61, the swing amplitude of the swing arm 3 is limited, the impact is reduced, and the low friction cylinder 52 is protected.

[0033] Multiple mounting holes 301 are provided along the central axis of the swing arm 3. A second bearing 41 is fixedly mounted in the middle of one of the mounting holes 301. The two ends of the floating roller 4 are respectively fixedly mounted in the middle of the corresponding second bearing 41. By providing multiple mounting holes 301, it is convenient to install the floating roller 4 in different positions, which increases the flexibility of the entire swing roller assembly.

[0034] A first cover 111 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the wall panel 1 near the first bearing 11 by bolts. By setting the first cover 111, grease inside the first bearing 11 is prevented from splashing.

[0035] A second cover 411 is bolted to the side of the outer wall of the swing arm 3 near the second bearing 41. The second cover 411 is installed to prevent grease from splashing inside the second bearing 41.

[0036] Working principle: such as Figure 5 As shown, the thrust of the low-friction cylinder 52 is set by the precision pressure reducing valve. At this time, the thrust acting on the floating roller 4 is set to F1. Then, after the lithium battery separator passes through the floating roller 4, the tension of the membrane will pull the swing arm 3 to rotate. At this time, the tension acting on the floating roller 4 is F2. F1 and F2 are opposite in direction. F1 is the set value, F2 is the actual value, V1 is the speed of the front end of the membrane, and V2 is the speed of the rear end of the membrane.

[0037] Comparing F1 and F2: If F1 > F2, the tension is too low. The low-friction cylinder 52 controls the swing arm 3 to swing to the right. The precision potentiometer 73 reads the signal, and the system increases the speed V2 of the membrane's rear section, making V2 > V1. The membrane tightens, and the tension increases. At this time, F2 increases until F1 = F2, at which point the acceleration of V2 stops. If F1 < F2, the tension is too high. The low-friction cylinder 52 controls the swing arm 3 to swing to the left. The precision potentiometer 73 reads the signal, and the system slows down the speed V2 of the membrane's rear section, making V2 < V1. The membrane loosens, and the tension decreases. At this time, F2 decreases until F1 = F2, at which point the deceleration of V2 stops.

[0038] By repeating this process, the membrane tension can be controlled to fluctuate within a small range. By setting a low-friction cylinder 52, a constant thrust can be ensured. In conjunction with a precision potentiometer 73, the signal can be sensitively acquired, thus making tension control more accurate.

[0039] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
