Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of lithium battery coating and drying, and in particular to coating and drying apparatus. Background Technology
[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are rechargeable batteries that primarily function by the movement of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes. The manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries is a tightly linked process involving a series of interconnected steps, including electrode manufacturing, battery assembly, and final processes such as electrolyte injection, pre-charging, formation, and aging. Each of these three stages can be further divided into several key processes, each significantly impacting the final battery performance. Electrode manufacturing is the core of the entire lithium battery manufacturing process, directly affecting the battery's electrochemical performance.
[0003] The baking and heating process in electrode manufacturing mainly includes the following stages: preheating, accelerated drying, stable drying, and decelerated drying. During the stable drying stage, as the surface solvent evaporates, the solvent deep within the electrode begins to leach out. This stage is prone to uneven heating leading to cracking and localized stress concentration in the material area, which in turn causes uneven surface tension in the coating, resulting in a series of appearance defects, including edge curling, cracking in the material area, and shrinkage stress lines. Foil cracking and breakage severely impact production efficiency, leading to electrode scrap, increased defects, and affecting cell production costs and coating pass rates. Utility Model Content

[0048] The applicant noted that the electrode sheet undergoes multiple baking steps during the baking process, including preheating, accelerated drying, stabilizing drying, and decelerating drying. During the stabilizing drying stage, as the surface solvent evaporates, the solvent from deeper layers begins to leach out. This stage is prone to uneven heating leading to cracking and localized stress concentration in the material area, which in turn causes uneven surface tension in the coating, resulting in a series of appearance defects, including edge curling, cracking in the material area, and shrinkage stress lines. Therefore, the problems that arise with the electrode sheet vary depending on the baking step.
[0049] To address the problems in the relevant technologies, firstly, referring to... Figure 1One embodiment of this application provides a coating and drying apparatus, including a tension release roller assembly 20, a material area smoothing roller assembly 30, and an edge smoothing roller assembly 40; the tension release roller assembly 20 is used to reduce stress accumulation inside the electrode sheet 10; the material area smoothing roller assembly 30 is used to press down on the electrode sheet 10 to make the electrode sheet 10 flat; the edge smoothing roller assembly 40 is used to press down on the edge of the electrode sheet 10 to make the edge of the electrode sheet 10 flat; wherein, the tension release roller assembly 20, the material area smoothing roller assembly 30, and the edge smoothing roller assembly 40 are sequentially arranged in different processing areas inside the drying oven along the electrode sheet 10 conveying direction.
[0050] Among them, the tension release roller assembly 20 is used to make the surface tension of the electrode 10 uniform and reduce the local stress accumulation caused by uneven force inside the electrode 10; the material area smoothing roller assembly 30 presses down on the surface of the electrode 10 to make the surface of the electrode 10 flat; the edge smoothing roller assembly 40 presses down to the two sides of the electrode 10 to prevent the edges of the electrode 10 from curling.
[0051] In this embodiment, the tension release roller assembly 20, the material area smoothing roller assembly 30, and the edge smoothing roller assembly 40 are arranged according to different processing areas within the oven. This allows the tension release roller assembly 20, the material area smoothing roller assembly 30, and the edge smoothing roller assembly 40 to process the electrode sheet 10 sequentially. The tension release roller assembly 20 reduces the accumulation of local stress caused by uneven force within the electrode sheet 10, thereby preventing shrinkage stress lines from appearing on the electrode sheet 10. The material area smoothing roller assembly 30 and the edge smoothing roller assembly 40 press down and flatten the electrode sheet 10, improving the stability of the electrode sheet 10's conveyor belt and preventing abnormalities such as edge curling and cracking after the electrode sheet 10 has finished baking. To address the problems that may occur in different processing areas of the electrode sheet 10 within the oven, multiple roller pressing mechanisms are used to sequentially and specifically process the electrode sheet 10, improving the yield and production efficiency of the electrode sheet 10.
[0052] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the tension release roller assembly 20 is disposed in the stable drying area inside the oven. The tension release roller assembly 20 includes a tension release roller 202, which is tactilely connected to the first surface of the electrode 10. The tension release roller 202 is provided with uniformly distributed concave and convex textures, so that the tension of the electrode 10 is uniformly distributed when the electrode 10 passes through the tension release roller 202.
[0053] The tension release roller assembly 20 also includes a tension release roller bracket 204, which is disposed on both sides of the electrode sheet 10 and is used to install the tension release roller 202. The tension release roller bracket 204 has a tension release roller groove 206 in the vertical direction, which is used to adjust the position of the tension release roller 202 in the vertical direction.
[0054] Specifically, the release roller brackets 204 are respectively disposed on both sides of the electrode 10. After the release roller 202 is installed on the release roller brackets 204, the release roller 202 is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the electrode 10. The release roller brackets 204 have a release roller groove 206 in the vertical direction, and the release roller 202 can be adjusted up and down in the vertical direction within the release roller groove 206. When the release roller 202 is adjusted to a suitable position (such as a position that can reduce uneven tension inside the electrode 10), the release roller 202 is fixed on the release roller brackets 204 by the release roller fasteners 208.
[0055] For example, the release roller 202 is in rolling contact with the first surface of the electrode 10. Through the uneven texture of its surface, the release roller 202, combined with the weight of the electrode 10, applies appropriate compression and friction to the electrode 10 as it advances, thereby achieving a uniform distribution of surface tension and dispersing any previously uneven tension across the entire surface of the electrode 10. Optionally, the uneven texture on the release roller 202 can be a thread.
[0056] In this embodiment, the uneven texture on the surface of the release roller 202 allows for the uniform distribution of tension on the surface of the electrode 10. Because the internal stress of the electrode 10 is evenly distributed, the electrode 10 no longer experiences shrinkage stress marks due to excessive localized stress during subsequent deceleration drying and conveyor belt operation. The release roller groove 206 precisely adjusts the vertical position of the release roller 202 to accommodate electrodes 10 of different thicknesses or drying levels, ensuring that the contact pressure between the release roller 202 and the electrode 10 is optimal, further optimizing the stress distribution effect.
[0057] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the material leveling roller assembly 30 is disposed in the deceleration drying area inside the oven. The material leveling roller assembly 30 includes a material leveling roller 302 and a material leveling roller mounting component. The material leveling roller 302 is tactilely connected to the second surface of the electrode 10. The material leveling roller mounting component is disposed opposite to both sides of the electrode 10 and is used to mount the material leveling roller 302.
[0058] Specifically, the material leveling roller mounting components are respectively positioned on both sides of the electrode 10. After the material leveling roller 302 is installed, it is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the electrode 10. The material leveling roller 302 makes rolling contact with the second surface of the electrode 10 by pressing down, achieving smooth contact with the surface of the electrode 10. The first surface and the second surface of the electrode 10 are two opposing surfaces.
[0059] For example, after the stable drying stage, the electrode 10 enters the deceleration drying zone. At this time, the solvent on the surface of the electrode 10 has basically evaporated. However, due to the process and temperature changes in the previous stage, there may be local unevenness or minor irregularities on the surface of the electrode 10 caused by internal stress. When the electrode 10 enters the deceleration drying zone, the material leveling roller 302 makes continuous rolling contact with the second surface of the electrode 10. Through the rolling action, the surface of the electrode 10 is pressed down and leveled, eliminating the surface unevenness and minor local bulges caused by the front release roller 202, so that the surface of the electrode 10 reaches an ideal flat state.
[0060] In this embodiment, the even downward pressure of the material leveling roller 302 ensures that the electrode 10 is subjected to uniform force during the conveying process, reducing the risk of belt deviation or belt breakage caused by local unevenness. The material leveling roller mounting parts are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the electrode 10, so that the electrode 10 is subjected to balanced force during the leveling process of the material leveling roller 302, preventing belt deviation or local overpressure problems caused by uneven force on one side.
[0061] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the material leveling roller mounting component includes a material leveling roller fixing frame 304, a material leveling roller bracket 306, and a material leveling roller adjusting component; the material leveling roller bracket 306 is connected to both ends of the material leveling roller 302; the material leveling roller adjusting component is connected to the material leveling roller bracket 306 and the material leveling roller fixing frame 304, and is used to adjust the relative position of the material leveling roller bracket 306 and the electrode 10.
[0062] The material leveling roller adjustment component includes an adjusting screw 308, a handwheel 310, and a material leveling roller groove 312. The adjusting screw 308 is mounted on the material leveling roller support 306, and its first end is connected to the material leveling roller fixing frame 304. The handwheel 310 is connected to the second end of the adjusting screw 308 and is used to rotate and adjust the relative position of the material leveling roller support 306 and the adjusting screw 308. The material leveling roller groove 312 is mounted on the material leveling roller support 306 and is connected to one end of the material leveling roller 302 and is used to adjust the relative position of the material leveling roller 302 and the electrode sheet in the length direction of the material leveling roller 302.
[0063] Specifically, taking the material leveling installation on either side as an example, the material leveling roller fixing frame 304 and the material leveling roller bracket 306 are connected by an adjusting screw 308, which passes through the material leveling roller bracket 306. The first end of the adjusting screw 308 is connected to the material leveling roller fixing frame 304, and the second end is connected to the handwheel 310. By rotating the handwheel 310, the adjusting screw 308 is rotated, causing the material leveling roller bracket 306 to move up and down vertically.
[0064] The material leveling roller groove 312 is provided on one side, and it is connected to the material leveling roller bracket 306 on either side. Since the position of the material leveling roller bracket 306 is adjusted individually from both sides, after adjusting the vertical position of one side's material leveling roller bracket 306, the material leveling roller 302 will tilt. When adjusting the position of the other side's material leveling roller bracket 306 at this time, misalignment and jamming may easily occur. In this situation, by loosening the connection between the material leveling roller groove 312 and the material leveling roller 302, the position of the material leveling roller 302 along its length can be adjusted, allowing the other side's material leveling roller bracket 306 to be freely adjusted.
[0065] Optionally, the material leveling roller mounting component also includes a limiting member 316 and a guide member 314. The limiting member 316 is disposed between the adjusting screw 308 and the handwheel 310 to prevent the material leveling roller bracket 306 from disengaging from the screw. The guide member 314 is mounted parallel to the adjusting screw 308 on the material leveling roller fixing frame 304, passes through the material leveling roller bracket 306, and its other end is connected to the limiting member 316 to prevent the material leveling roller bracket 306 from rotating horizontally during adjustment.
[0066] In this embodiment, by adjusting the relative position between the material area smoothing roller support 306 and the electrode 10, it can be ensured that the electrode 10 is subjected to uniform downward pressure during the deceleration drying stage, eliminating local unevenness, improving the overall flatness of the electrode 10, and enhancing the belt running stability.
[0067] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the edge smoothing roller assembly 40 is disposed in the deceleration drying area inside the oven. The edge smoothing roller assembly 40 includes a first edge smoothing roller 402, a second edge smoothing roller 404, a first edge smoothing roller 402 support, and a second edge smoothing roller 404 support. The first edge smoothing roller 402 and the first edge smoothing roller 402 support are connected, and the second edge smoothing roller 404 and the second edge smoothing roller 404 support are connected and disposed opposite to each other on both sides of the electrode sheet 10.
[0068] The first edge smoothing roller 402 bracket and the second edge smoothing roller 404 are provided with edge smoothing roller grooves 410 in the vertical direction for installing and adjusting the position of the first edge smoothing roller 402 and the second edge smoothing roller 404 in the vertical direction.
[0069] Specifically, the first edge smoothing roller 402 bracket and the second edge smoothing roller 404 bracket are respectively disposed on both sides of the electrode 10. The first edge smoothing roller 402 is connected to the first edge smoothing roller 402 bracket, and the second edge smoothing roller 404 is connected to the second edge smoothing roller 404 bracket, so that the first edge smoothing roller 402 and the second edge smoothing roller 404 are perpendicular to the movement direction of the electrode 10. The first edge smoothing roller 402 and the second edge smoothing roller 404 respectively press down on both sides of the electrode 10. The first edge smoothing roller 402 bracket and the second edge smoothing roller 404 bracket are provided with edge smoothing roller grooves 410 in the vertical direction, and the first edge smoothing roller 402 and the second edge smoothing roller 404 can be adjusted up and down in the vertical direction within the edge smoothing roller grooves 410. When the first edge smoothing roller 402 and the second edge smoothing roller 404 are adjusted to the appropriate position, the first edge smoothing roller 402 and the second edge smoothing roller 404 are respectively fixed on the first edge smoothing roller 402 bracket and the second edge smoothing roller 404 bracket by the edge smoothing roller fastener 412.
[0070] Furthermore, the opposite ends of the first edge smoothing roller 402 and the second edge smoothing roller 404 are rounded to form spherical ends, which helps to provide a gentler contact during the edge smoothing process and reduce the risk of mechanical damage to the edge of the electrode 10.
[0071] In this embodiment, the edge smoothing roller assembly 40 is set in the deceleration drying area, which can apply uniform pressure to both sides of the electrode 10. The first edge smoothing roller 402 support and the second edge smoothing roller 404 support are provided with vertical grooves, so that the edge smoothing roller can be precisely adjusted in height, thereby better adapting to different electrode thicknesses and process conditions. In the deceleration drying stage, the electrode 10 is pressed down to the edge area of the electrode 10 by the edge smoothing roller before it leaves the oven, preventing abnormal cracking caused by edge curling before the electrode 10 leaves the oven.
