Detailed Implementation
[0016] To more clearly illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0017] See Figure 1-2 A lithium battery cathode material mixing and stirring device includes a vacuum stirring drum 1, a drum cover 2, a stirring device 3, a motor 4, and a filter box 5.
[0018] See Figure 1-2 The vacuum mixing drum 1 has a support 11 at the bottom and a cover 2 at the top. A stirring device 3 is installed inside the vacuum mixing drum 1, and a motor 4 is installed at the bottom of the vacuum mixing drum 1. The power output end of the motor 4 is connected to the power input end of the stirring device 3. A discharge pipe 12 is opened at the bottom of the side wall of the vacuum mixing drum 1, and a filter box 5 is installed at the outlet of the discharge pipe 12. The support 11 supports the vacuum mixing drum 1 to ensure its stable placement and prevent tilting or movement during the stirring process. The cover 2 covers the top of the vacuum mixing drum 1 to ensure airtightness. The stirring device 3 is used to stir the lithium battery positive electrode material, and the motor 4 provides stirring power to the stirring device 3. The discharge pipe 12 is used to export the stirred material from the vacuum mixing drum into the filter box 5 to filter the stirred material.
[0019] See Figure 1-2The stirring device 3 includes a stirring roller 31, a roller shaft 32, a base 33, and a scraper rod 34. The stirring roller 31 is coaxially mounted to the vacuum stirring cylinder 1 via the roller shaft 32. A scraper arm 35 is provided at the top of the roller shaft 32, and the bottom surface of the scraper arm 35 is tangent to the upper surface of the base 33. The base 33 and the roller shaft 32 are mounted via bearings. The scraper rod 34 is mounted on the base 33 and is tangent to the inner wall of the vacuum stirring cylinder 1. The stirring roller 31 directly participates in the stirring process, mixing the materials evenly through rotation. The roller shaft 32 supports the stirring roller 31 and is coaxially mounted with the vacuum stirring cylinder 1, ensuring that the rotation center of the stirring roller 31 is consistent with the center of the stirring cylinder 1. The base 33 serves as the bottom support structure of the stirring device and is mounted to the roller shaft 32 via bearings, ensuring the stable rotation of the stirring roller 31. The scraper rod 34 is mounted on the base 33 and is tangent to the inner wall of the stirring cylinder 1, used to scrape off the material on the inner wall, ensuring that there are no dead corners in the stirring.
[0020] See Figure 1-2 The vacuum mixing drum 1 has a partition 13 at the top, and a temperature and humidity detector 14 is installed above the partition 13. The partition 13 has through holes. The partition 13 divides the internal space of the vacuum mixing drum 1 to prevent the material from directly contacting the temperature and humidity detector 14. The temperature and humidity detector 14 monitors the temperature and humidity inside the mixing drum 1 to ensure that the mixing process is carried out under suitable temperature and humidity conditions. This plays an important role in improving material performance and preventing material deterioration. The through holes are used for vacuuming, exhausting and ventilation inside the mixing drum 1.
[0021] See Figure 1-2 The cylinder cover 2 is provided with a handle 21, and a vacuum interface 22 is provided next to the handle 21. The handle 21 makes it convenient for operators to lift or move the cylinder cover, improving the convenience of operation. The vacuum interface 22 is used to connect to the vacuum system to ensure that the inside of the mixing cylinder can reach the required vacuum level.
[0022] See Figure 1-2 The stirring roller 31 is equipped with a spiral stirring blade 36 via a connecting rod. The stirring blade 36 is used to mix and stir the lithium battery cathode material, so as to evenly mix the components in the material. The stirring blade 36 is connected to the stirring roller 31 via the connecting rod, so that the stirring range of the stirring blade 36 is expanded and the stirring dead zone is avoided.
[0023] See Figure 1-2 The filter box 5 is equipped with a replaceable filter membrane 51; the replaceable filter membrane 51 is used to filter the material after stirring to ensure the purity of the material, and the replaceable design makes maintenance and cleaning more convenient.
[0024] See Figure 1-2 The filter membrane 51 has a mesh size of 120 mesh; this type of filter membrane can effectively filter out larger particles of impurities while allowing sufficiently small particles to pass through, ensuring that the filtered material meets the fineness requirements of lithium battery cathode materials.
[0025] According to the above embodiments, the working process of this utility model is as follows:
[0026] First, the lithium battery positive electrode material is added to the vacuum stirring drum 1. Then, the stirring roller 31 in the stirring device 3 is driven to rotate by the motor 4. The stirring roller is coaxially installed with the vacuum stirring drum via the roller shaft 32. At the same time, the scraper rod 34 is tangential to the inner wall of the stirring drum to ensure that there are no dead corners or uneven mixing during the stirring process. During the stirring process, the temperature and humidity detector 14 monitors the environment inside the drum to ensure suitable temperature and humidity conditions. After the stirring is completed, the material is discharged through the discharge pipe 12 and filtered through the 120-mesh filter membrane 51 in the filter box 5 to remove impurities and obtain pure positive electrode material. Throughout the process, the vacuum interface 22 on the drum cover 2 is connected to the vacuum system. After the ingredients are added to the vacuum stirring drum 1, the vacuum is drawn. When the vacuum degree inside the drum reaches the target value, the connection pipe between the vacuum interface 22 and the vacuum system is sealed by the vacuum valve. During the stirring process, the vacuum degree inside the drum is monitored at all times to ensure that the inside of the stirring drum is kept in a vacuum state, reduce material oxidation, and improve material dispersion.
