Description

[0002] In recent years, with the surge in demand for electric vehicles, consumer electronics, and renewable energy storage systems, the market size of lithium batteries, as an important energy storage device, has continued to expand. The performance of lithium batteries directly affects the efficiency and safety of these applications. During the manufacturing and lifecycle of batteries, disassembly is necessary to verify, analyze, and improve the product, resulting in better and more efficient products. The disassembled negative electrode contains lithium ions and other substances, which are highly susceptible to violent combustion during everyday storage. Therefore, the safe and compliant disposal of the disassembled negative electrode is of great significance. However, current technologies often handle the disassembled negative electrode as follows: 1. Immersion in water and retrieval; 2. Incineration and collection using water spray in an incinerator.

[0055] This application provides an electrode soaking device.

[0056] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0057] like Figures 1-3 As shown in the figure, this application provides an electrode soaking device, which includes a reaction mechanism 1 and a transfer mechanism 2. The reaction mechanism 1 includes a reaction chamber 11 for holding a soaking solution. The transfer mechanism 2 can transfer the electrode to enter the reaction chamber 11 and to leave the reaction chamber 11. The reaction mechanism 1 and the transfer mechanism 2 are independent of each other and can move relative to each other for position adjustment.

[0058] It should be noted that the soaking solution is water. The electrode soaking device of this application can soak waste positive electrode sheets or waste negative electrode sheets; preferably, it soaks waste negative electrode sheets. The electrode sheets to be discarded are placed in the reaction chamber 11 and soaked in water; the lithium ions and other substances contained on the electrode sheets undergo a violent combustion reaction with the water to be consumed, thereby avoiding the risk of violent combustion when placed in the everyday environment.

[0059] "Reaction mechanism 1 and transfer mechanism 2 are independent of each other" means that reaction mechanism 1 and transfer mechanism 2 are not integrally connected structures, but are separate structures with no physical connection between them. "Reaction mechanism 1 and transfer mechanism 2 can move relative to each other" means that, ignoring the movement of the electrode caused by transfer mechanism 2 within transfer mechanism 2, and considering transfer mechanism 2 as a macroscopic whole, transfer mechanism 2 and reaction mechanism 1 can move relative to each other, thereby achieving adjustment of their placement positions.

[0060] The electrode soaking device of this application is equipped with a transfer mechanism 2. The placement and removal of the electrode in the reaction chamber 11 do not require the participation of operators. The placement and removal of the electrode are controlled by the program, the soaking time is precisely controlled, and the standardization and consistency of the actions are good. This not only eliminates the dependence on the experience of operators and improves the processing efficiency, but also greatly avoids the risk of fire accidents caused by the electrode during the soaking process and injury to operators.

[0061] Furthermore, the reaction mechanism 1 and the transfer mechanism 2 are two independent structures. Before operation, the relative movement of the reaction mechanism 1 and the transfer mechanism 2 allows for flexible adjustment of their positions to meet operational requirements. Once adjusted, the positions of the reaction mechanism 1 and the transfer mechanism 2 are fixed. As described above, there is no need to design the electrode soaking device as a single unit, which not only facilitates the manufacturing of each separate mechanism but also facilitates transportation.

[0062] In some embodiments of this application, the transfer mechanism 2 includes a frame 21, a transverse moving assembly 22, and a vertical moving assembly 23. The frame 21 forms a clearance space for the reaction mechanism 1 to enter and exit. The transverse moving assembly 22 is disposed on the frame 21 and located above the reaction mechanism 1, and is used to drive the electrode sheet into or out of the reaction mechanism 1 along a first direction. The vertical moving assembly 23 is fixed to the transverse moving assembly 22 and is used to drive the electrode sheet to move vertically to enter or leave the reaction chamber 11. The first direction is perpendicular to the vertical direction. Please refer to the appendix for the first direction and the vertical direction. Figure 1 The direction indicated by the middle arrow.

[0063] The frame 21 provides a mounting support for the horizontal movement assembly 22 and the vertical movement assembly 23, and provides support height for the horizontal movement assembly 22 and the vertical movement assembly 23, so that they are fixedly installed above the reaction mechanism 1. The combined structure of the horizontal movement assembly 22 and the vertical movement assembly 23 allows the electrode to have two degrees of freedom in two directions, thereby realizing the flexible placement and removal of the electrode in the reaction chamber 11.

[0064] In some embodiments, the frame 21 includes a first longitudinal beam 211 and a second longitudinal beam 212 spaced apart along a first direction, and a supporting crossbeam 213 fixed to the top of the first longitudinal beam 211 and the second longitudinal beam 212. The supporting crossbeam 213 is located above the reaction mechanism 1; the space enclosed by the first longitudinal beam 211, the second longitudinal beam 212, and the supporting crossbeam 213 is the clearance space for the reaction mechanism 1 to enter and exit. A lateral movement assembly 22 is disposed on the supporting crossbeam 213. A first reinforcing beam 214 is provided on each side of the first longitudinal beam 211 along a second direction, and a first supporting beam 215 is provided at the bottom of the first longitudinal beam 211 and the first reinforcing beam 214; the first reinforcing beam 214 and the first supporting beam 215 form a stable triangular support. A second reinforcing beam is provided on each side of the second longitudinal beam 212 along a second direction, and a second supporting beam is provided at the bottom of the second longitudinal beam 212 and the second reinforcing beam; the second reinforcing beam and the second supporting beam form a stable triangular support. Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 The second direction is attached Figure 1 The direction indicated by the middle arrow.

[0065] Optionally, the transverse component 22 can be a guide rail slider structure, that is, the transverse component 22 includes a guide rail disposed on the support beam 213 and a slider that can slide along the guide rail.

[0066] Optionally, the vertical movement component 23 can be a hoisting structure, i.e., the vertical movement component 23 includes a drum and a wire rope wound on the drum. The drum is fixedly mounted on the slider of the horizontal movement component 22; by winding and unwinding the wire rope through the drum, the pole pieces hooked on the wire rope can be moved vertically. Furthermore, the hoisting mechanism includes a drive motor to drive the drum to perform the winding and unwinding of the wire rope.

[0067] In some embodiments of this application, the reaction mechanism 1 includes a pick-and-place chamber 12 located above the reaction containment chamber 11 and communicating with the top opening of the reaction containment chamber 11. The walls of the pick-and-place chamber 12 can cover the top opening of the pick-and-place chamber 12. The pick-and-place chamber 12 has an inlet and outlet 121 on a first side wall 123 perpendicular to a first direction; the electrode enters and exits the pick-and-place chamber 12 along the first direction through the inlet and outlet 121. The walls of the pick-and-place chamber 12 have a clearance hole 122, which is located above the inlet and outlet 121 and communicates with the inlet and outlet 121, so as to provide clearance space for the vertical moving assembly 23 to move along the first direction, so that the vertical moving assembly 23 can move unimpeded into the pick-and-place chamber 12, thereby realizing that the vertical moving assembly 23 drives the electrode into the pick-and-place chamber 12. The pick-and-place chamber 12 includes a switch door to seal or open the inlet and outlet 121; when the electrode needs to enter the pick-and-place chamber 12, the switch door is opened, and the switch door is closed after the electrode enters the pick-and-place chamber 12.

[0068] It should be noted that the shape of the reaction chamber 11 is not specifically limited; optionally, the reaction chamber 11 is a cuboid structure with a top opening. The shape of the pick-up and put-down chamber 12 is not specifically limited; optionally, the pick-up and put-down chamber 12 is a cuboid structure with a bottom opening; the top opening of the reaction chamber 11 can be sealed and connected with the bottom opening of the pick-up and put-down chamber 12.

[0069] Optionally, the door can be a double door.

[0070] The steel wire rope can pass through the clearance hole 122 in the vertical moving component 23, so the width of the clearance hole 122 does not need to be too large, as long as it can accommodate the passage of the steel wire rope.

[0071] The loading / unloading chamber 12 provides a transit space for the electrode to enter the reaction chamber 11. When the door is opened, the horizontal moving assembly 22 moves the electrode along the first direction through the inlet / outlet 121 into the interior of the loading / unloading chamber 12. When the door is closed, the vertical moving assembly 23 moves the electrode vertically from the loading / unloading chamber 12 down into the interior of the reaction chamber 11. When the door is closed, the loading / unloading chamber 12 covers the reaction chamber 11, providing a covered space for the reaction chamber 11. The fire generated by the reaction of the electrode with water will not extend beyond the reaction mechanism 1, thus ensuring the safety of the working environment and preventing fire accidents.

[0072] In some embodiments of this application, the clearance hole 122 includes a first clearance hole 122 formed in the first sidewall 123 and a second clearance hole 122 formed in the top wall of the retrieval chamber 12; the first clearance hole 1221 has an extension length in the vertical direction; the second clearance hole 1222 has an extension length in the first direction. A first guide member 124 and a second guide member 125 are respectively provided on both sides of the width of the first clearance hole 1221. Along the first direction, and from the interior of the retrieval chamber 12 to the direction pointing to the inlet / outlet 121, the distance between the first guide member 124 and the second guide member 125 gradually increases.

[0073] Optionally, the loading / unloading chamber 12 is a cuboid structure with a bottom opening. It should be noted that the first clearance hole 1221 and the second clearance hole 1222 are connected. The width direction of the first clearance hole 1221 is parallel to the second direction; the second direction is perpendicular to both the first direction and the vertical direction. Please refer to the appendix for details. Figure 1 The direction indicated by the middle arrow.

[0074] Along the direction of the vertical moving component 23 entering the pick-up and put-down chamber 12, the first guide member 124 and the second guide member 125 form a guide limiting space that is larger in the front and smaller in the back. Therefore, even if there is a certain deviation in the setting position of the vertical moving component 23, the wire rope of the vertical moving component 23 can pass smoothly through the avoidance hole 122 under the guidance and limitation of the guide limiting space, thereby realizing that the vertical moving component 23 drives the electrode to smoothly enter the interior of the pick-up and put-down chamber 12.

[0075] Please see the appendix Figure 3 In some embodiments of this application, the electrode soaking apparatus includes an exhaust gas treatment mechanism 3. The reaction mechanism 1 includes a loading and unloading chamber 12 capable of covering the top opening of the reaction containment chamber 11. The wall of the loading and unloading chamber 12 is provided with an exhaust port 126, which is connected to the exhaust gas treatment mechanism 3.

[0076] Optionally, the top and bottom walls of the loading / unloading chamber 12 are provided with air outlets 126. Optionally, the top wall of the loading / unloading chamber 12 has two parallel air outlets 126. The exhaust gas treatment mechanism 3 includes exhaust branch pipes 33 and exhaust main pipes 34. Each air outlet 126 is connected to an exhaust branch pipe 33, and all exhaust branch pipes 33 are connected to the exhaust main pipe 34; thus, the loading / unloading chamber 12 and the exhaust gas treatment mechanism 3 are connected.

[0077] By setting up the exhaust gas treatment mechanism 3, the combustion exhaust gas generated by the combustion reaction of the electrode and the soaking liquid (i.e., water) can be treated to purify the combustion exhaust gas and make it meet the emission standards before being discharged into the outside atmosphere, thus avoiding any impact on the environment.

[0078] In some embodiments of this application, the exhaust gas treatment mechanism 3 includes a hazardous substance adsorption element 31.

[0079] It should be noted that when the electrode comes into contact with the immersion solution, it will undergo a violent combustion reaction with the active lithium metal. Due to the presence of active materials and / or residual electrolyte on the electrode, harmful gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrofluoric acid (HF) will be generated. By setting up the harmful substance adsorption element 31, the above-mentioned harmful gases can be adsorbed, thereby purifying the combustion exhaust gas.

[0080] Furthermore, the harmful substance adsorbent 31 is an activated carbon adsorbent, which includes a shell and activated carbon adsorbent particles contained inside the shell.

[0081] In some embodiments of this application, the electrode soaking device further includes an exhaust fan 32, which drives the airflow in the pick-up and drop-off chamber 12 to be discharged from the air outlet 126.

[0082] It should be noted that the exhaust fan 32 can be a component of the exhaust gas treatment mechanism 3, or it can be set up independently of the exhaust gas treatment mechanism 3. Preferably, the exhaust fan 32 is a component of the exhaust gas treatment mechanism 3. When the electrode reacts with water for combustion, the airflow in the intake and discharge chamber 12 is the combustion exhaust gas.

[0083] The exhaust fan 32 can quickly draw out the combustion exhaust gas generated by the reaction of the electrode and water. The airflow in the intake and release chamber 12 is discharged to the outside atmosphere through the combustion exhaust gas emission path. In the combustion exhaust gas emission path, the harmful substance adsorbent 31 can be located relatively upstream or relatively downstream of the exhaust fan 32, as long as the combustion exhaust gas passes through the harmful substance adsorbent 31 before being discharged to the outside atmosphere, so as to fully adsorb the harmful substances in the combustion exhaust gas and purify the combustion exhaust gas discharged to the outside atmosphere.

[0084] It should be noted that, under the action of the exhaust fan 32, the negative pressure at the air outlet 126 of the intake and release chamber 12 is relatively large, and the combustion exhaust gas in the intake and release chamber will be concentrated and discharged to the outside through the air outlet 126, without leakage at the avoidance hole 122.

[0085] Please see the appendix Figure 2 In some embodiments of this application, the electrode soaking device includes a material frame 4, the walls of which are provided with leakage holes. The material frame 4 is used to hold the electrode, and the material frame 4 can be connected to a transfer mechanism 2 so that the transfer mechanism 2 can move the material frame 4 together with the electrode.

[0086] It should be noted that the shape of the material frame 4 is not specifically limited; optionally, the material frame 4 can be a cuboid structure with a top opening. Each of the four corners of the top opening of the material frame 4 has a lifting component, and these four lifting components converge to form a hook. The lifting components can be lifting ropes, lifting wires, etc., and are not specifically limited here. The steel wire rope of the vertical moving assembly 23 is equipped with a hook, which can hook onto or unhook the hook of the material frame 4.

[0087] The material frame 4, along with the electrode, moves into the reaction chamber 11. The soaking solution enters the material frame 4 through the leakage hole and reacts with the electrode located inside the material frame 4. After the reaction is completed, the material frame 4, along with the electrode, moves out of the reaction chamber 11. As described above, by setting the material frame 4, it is convenient to place or remove the electrode in the reaction chamber 11, making the operation convenient, fast, and time-saving.

[0088] In some embodiments of this application, the electrode soaking device includes a temporary storage mechanism 5, which includes a waste liquid containing cavity and a support member 51 with a top opening in the waste liquid containing cavity. The support member 51 has drainage holes. The transfer mechanism 2 can drive the electrode to be transferred to the support member 51.

[0089] After the electrode and the soaking solution have reacted, the material frame 4, together with the electrode, is moved to the reaction chamber 11 and placed on the support 51. The residual soaking solution on the material frame 4 and the electrode will drip onto the support 51 and then drip through the drain hole into the waste liquid collection cavity for collection, so as to avoid the dripping of residual soaking solution during the subsequent transfer of the electrode and thus ensure the cleanliness of the working environment.

[0090] It should be noted that the temporary storage mechanism 5, the reaction mechanism 1, and the transfer mechanism 2 are three independent structures. Before operation, the relative positions of these three mechanisms are flexibly adjusted to meet operational requirements. Once adjusted, their positions are kept fixed. As such, the electrode soaking device does not need to be a single integrated structure, which not only facilitates the manufacturing of each separate mechanism but also facilitates transport and transfer.

[0091] In some embodiments, the temporary storage mechanism 5 is provided with a waste liquid discharge port that communicates with the waste liquid containment cavity. By unblocking the waste liquid discharge port, the waste liquid collected in the waste liquid containment cavity can be discharged from the temporary storage mechanism 5.

[0092] In some embodiments of this application, the reaction mechanism 1 includes a waste transfer chamber 13. The soaking solution in the reaction containment chamber 11 can be discharged into the waste transfer chamber 13.

[0093] It should be noted that a liquid outlet is provided on the bottom wall of the reaction chamber 11; by unblocking the liquid outlet, the soaking liquid can be discharged into the waste liquid transfer chamber 13 through the liquid outlet.

[0094] The waste liquid after the reaction is temporarily stored in the waste liquid transfer chamber 13 to avoid direct discharge of waste liquid and pollution to the environment; the waste liquid collected in the waste liquid transfer chamber 13 is centrally treated until it meets the discharge standards before being discharged, or it is uniformly recycled to a recycling site for treatment.

[0095] Furthermore, the waste liquid transfer chamber 13 is located at the bottom of the reaction container chamber 11, and the waste liquid transfer chamber 13 can be disassembled and detached from the reaction mechanism body. The shape of the waste liquid transfer chamber 13 is not specifically limited; optionally, the waste liquid transfer chamber 13 is a cuboid structure with a top opening. The outlet of the reaction container chamber 11 is connected to an outlet pipe, which extends towards the top opening of the waste liquid transfer chamber 13.

[0096] In some embodiments, a liquid inlet is provided on the side wall of the reaction chamber 11, through which soaking solution is injected into the reaction chamber 11.

[0097] Furthermore, the inlet is connected to an inlet valve, which is connected to the water supply system via an inlet pipe. By opening the inlet valve, the soaking solution can be injected into the reaction chamber 11 through the inlet. As described above, this allows for convenient and rapid injection of the soaking solution into the reaction chamber 11, simplifying operation.

[0098] In some embodiments of this application, a first universal wheel 14 is provided at the bottom of the reaction mechanism 1. As mentioned above, the position of the reaction mechanism 1 can be adjusted by the first universal wheel 14, which is convenient, fast and flexible.

[0099] Furthermore, a second caster wheel 24 is provided at the bottom of the transfer mechanism 2. As mentioned above, the position of the transfer mechanism 2 can be adjusted through the second caster wheel 24, making operation convenient, fast, flexible, and highly adaptable.

[0100] Furthermore, a third caster wheel 52 is provided at the bottom of the temporary storage mechanism 5. As mentioned above, the position of the temporary storage mechanism 5 can be adjusted by means of the third caster wheel 52, which is convenient, quick and flexible.

[0101] In some embodiments, the temporary storage mechanism 5 includes a push-pull portion 53; the push-pull portion 53 can be a rigid push-pull handle. By providing the push-pull portion 53, it is easier to manually push and pull the temporary storage mechanism 5, and it is also easier to adjust the position of the temporary storage mechanism 5.
