[0002] Ternary battery electrode recycling refers to the process of recycling electrodes from waste ternary lithium batteries. The aim is to extract useful components and achieve resource recycling. This process mainly includes the recycling of materials such as lithium iron phosphate electrodes or ternary electrodes. Through a series of physical and chemical methods, useful components such as copper, carbon powder, aluminum, and lithium iron phosphate powder are separated from the electrodes. A collection hopper is required in the ternary battery electrode processing.

[0003] During the processing and production of ternary lithium battery electrode sheets, the crushed material is collected through a hopper and then flows into the feed pipe. During processing and transmission, when the material gathers from all sides of the hopper to the feed pipe inlet, the small opening of the feed pipe prevents the material from passing through in time, causing blockage. Currently, most hoppers rely on manual inspection and discharge to prevent blockage, which increases the workload of the personnel and reduces the effectiveness and efficiency of the equipment. This application proposes an alternative technical solution to address this problem. Utility Model Content

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The ternary battery electrode recycling anti-clogging hopper in this embodiment includes a hopper body 1, an anti-clogging component installed on the hopper body 1, and a stirring component installed on the hopper body 1.

[0024] Example 1: The anti-blocking component includes a mounting frame 2 fixedly installed on the outside of the hopper body 1. The mounting frame 2 has a connection hole inside. The hopper body 1 extends to the outside of the mounting frame 2 through the connection hole. A controller is fixedly installed on the top of the mounting frame 2.

[0025] A connecting plate 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the hopper body 1, and a bushing 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the connecting plate 3.

[0026] The bushing 4 has a rotating rod 5 rotatably mounted inside it, and the top and bottom of the connecting frame 7 are provided with first extension holes, through which the rotating rod 5 passes into the interior of the connecting frame 7.

[0027] A auger blade 6 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the rotating rod 5, and a connecting frame 7 is fixedly installed inside the hopper body 1. A first conical tooth 8 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the rotating rod 5. When the rotating rod 5 rotates, it drives the auger blade 6 to rotate synchronously, thereby causing the material to rotate and be discharged, reducing the possibility of blockage at the discharge port of the hopper body 1.

[0028] It should be noted that the anti-clogging hopper for ternary battery electrode recycling, by installing anti-clogging components, reduces the situation where material blocks the discharge port when the hopper body 1 is discharging, reduces the need for personnel to monitor it repeatedly, reduces labor, and improves the efficiency of the device's discharge and the quality of the device's use.

[0029] Specifically, the ternary battery electrode recycling anti-clogging hopper collects the crushed material into the hopper body 1. The second conical tooth 12 meshes with the first conical tooth 8, and the bushing 4 drives the rotating rod 5 to rotate, which in turn drives the auger 6 to rotate, so that the material is transmitted and discharged. This reduces the situation where the material is blocked at the discharge port when the hopper body 1 is discharging, and improves the discharge efficiency and the quality of the device.

[0030] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 1 Based on Embodiment 1, a stirring assembly is also installed on the hopper body 1. The stirring assembly includes a horizontal plate 9 fixedly installed on the right side of the hopper body 1. A drive motor 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the horizontal plate 9. The drive motor 10 is connected to the controller signal, so that the user can control the start time of the drive motor 10.

[0031] A rotating rod 11 is fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor 10. A through hole is provided on the right side of the hopper body 1, and the output end of the drive motor 10 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 11 through the through hole.

[0032] The connecting frame 7 has second extension holes on both sides. The rotating rod 11 passes through the second extension holes to the outside of the connecting frame 7. The stirring assembly also includes a second conical tooth 12 that is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating rod 11 and meshes with the first conical tooth 8.

[0033] Among them, an agitator 13 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the rotating rod 11, and a sealing ring 14 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the rotating rod 11. There are two sealing rings 14, and the sealing rings 14 are in contact with the inner wall of the second extension hole to reduce the material in the hopper body 1 from seeping into the connecting frame 7.

[0034] It should be noted that the ternary battery electrode recycling anti-clogging hopper is equipped with a stirring component, which improves the material discharge efficiency, reduces the occurrence of material agglomeration inside the hopper body 1, and improves the quality of the device.

[0035] Specifically, in use, the ternary battery electrode recycling anti-clogging hopper is activated by the controller to drive the drive motor 10, which drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate, thereby causing the second conical tooth 12 to rotate. The second conical tooth 12 meshes with the first conical tooth 8. The rotation of the rotating rod 11 drives the stirring rod 13 to rotate, reducing the agglomeration of materials inside the hopper body 1 and improving the quality of the device.

[0036] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0037] (1) The ternary battery electrode recycling anti-clogging hopper concentrates the crushed material into the hopper body 1, and then the second conical tooth 12 meshes with the first conical tooth 8. The bushing 4 drives the rotating rod 5 to rotate, which in turn drives the auger 6 to rotate, so that the material is transmitted and discharged. This reduces the situation where the material is blocked at the discharge port when the hopper body 1 is discharging, and improves the discharge efficiency of the device and the quality of the device.

[0038] (2) When the ternary battery electrode recycling anti-clogging hopper is in use, the controller starts the drive motor 10, which drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate, thereby causing the second conical tooth 12 to rotate, so that the second conical tooth 12 meshes with the first conical tooth 8. The rotating rod 11 rotates, which drives the stirring rod 13 to rotate, reducing the occurrence of material agglomeration inside the hopper body 1 and improving the quality of the device.
