Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0028] like Figures 1-7 As shown, a coating machine for lithium battery production includes a coating frame 1, a coating die head 5 fixed on the upper side inside the coating frame 1, a conveying mechanism 4 provided on the lower side inside the coating frame 1, and multiple drying boxes 2 arranged in a linear array fixed at the film outlet end of the coating frame 1. The drying boxes 2 are equipped with three rotating rollers for supporting the bottom side of the film, and each rotating roller is rotatably connected to the drying box 2. A winding mechanism 6 is provided at the end of the drying box 2 away from the coating frame 1. The machine also includes a cleaning mechanism 3 located on one side of the coating die head 5.

[0029] In this embodiment: the cleaning mechanism 3 includes a dust suction hood 31. The bottom of the dust suction hood 31 has a suction groove for adsorbing dust from the film surface. Inside the dust suction hood 31 is a lint roller 35 for pressing onto the film. Support shafts 34 are fixed to both ends of the lint roller 35. The ends of the two support shafts 34 that are far apart from each other pass through the dust suction hood 31, and each end of the two support shafts 34 extending out of the dust suction hood 31 is provided with a limiting component. Suction pipes 32 are fixed to both ends of the dust suction hood 31. Located on the upper side of the support shaft 34, the dust suction pipe 32 extends out of one end of the coating frame 1 and is fixed with a vacuum generator 33. By sending compressed air into the vacuum generator 33, suction is generated in the dust suction hood 31 through the dust suction pipe 32, and the film to be coated is then dusted. At the same time, a lint roller 35 is provided in the dust suction hood 31. The lint roller 35 rolls on the top of the film to stick and adsorb hair that is attracted by electrostatics, so as to prevent hair and other debris from entering the coating area with the film.

[0030] In this embodiment: the limiting assembly includes two fixed plates 38, which are respectively fixed on the front and rear sides of the coating machine frame 1. Each fixed plate 38 is fixed with a spring 37, and each spring 37 is fixed with a limiting seat 36 at its upper end. The two limiting seats 36 are rotatably connected to two support shafts 34. The bottom of the limiting seat 36 is provided with a limiting shaft, which is located at the center of the spring 37. The lower end of the limiting shaft is slidably connected to the fixed plate 38. The spring 37 pulls the limiting seat 36 towards the fixed plate 38, and the limiting shaft follows the limiting seat 36 through the fixed plate 38, thereby preventing the limiting seat 36 from shifting during downward movement.

[0031] In this embodiment: the conveying mechanism 4 includes a pressure roller 41, a rotating roller 42 is provided on the lower side of the pressure roller 41, a rotating motor 43 is fixedly installed at the input end of the rotating roller 42, an auxiliary roller 44 is provided on the lower side of the coating die head 5, an auxiliary motor 45 is fixedly installed at the input end of the auxiliary roller 44, and a support roller 46 is provided on the side of the auxiliary roller 44 away from the rotating roller 42. The front and rear ends of the pressure roller 41 are rotatably connected to the coating frame 1, the rotating roller 42 is rotatably connected to the coating frame 1, the auxiliary roller 44 is rotatably connected to the coating frame 1, and the support roller 46 is rotatably connected to the coating frame 1. The rotating part of the rotating motor 43 drives the rotating roller 42 to rotate, and at the same time, the pressure roller 41 presses the film to be coated onto the rotating roller 42. As the rotating roller 42 rotates, the film to be coated is conveyed. At the same time, the auxiliary motor 45 drives the auxiliary roller 44 to rotate to assist in the conveying of the coated film. Then, the support roller 46 rolls and supports the coated film, so that the coated film enters multiple drying boxes 2 for drying.

[0032] In this embodiment: the winding mechanism 6 includes a winding frame 62, a winding roller 61 is rotatably connected to the middle position of the winding frame 62, and a winding motor 63 is fixed on the front side of the winding frame 62 for driving the winding roller 61 to rotate. The winding roller 61 is driven to rotate by the rotating part of the winding motor 63, and the winding frame 62 provides rolling support for the winding roller 61.

[0033] Working principle: In use, firstly, one end of the film to be coated is passed between the pressure roller 41 and the rotating roller 42, and one end of the film is placed on the auxiliary roller 44 and the support roller 46. Then, the stretched end of the film is passed through multiple drying boxes 2 and wound onto the take-up roller 61. Subsequently, the mixed coating material is fed into the coating die head 5 by an external feed pump. The coating material is coated onto the film on the upper side of the auxiliary roller 44 by the coating die head 5. Then, the rotating motor 43, the auxiliary motor 45 and the take-up motor 63 are started simultaneously. The rotating part of the rotating motor 43 drives the rotating roller 42 to rotate. At the same time, the pressure roller 41 presses the film to be coated onto the rotating roller 42. As the rotating roller 42 rotates, the film to be coated is conveyed. At the same time, the spring 37 pulls the limit seat 36 to move towards the fixed plate 38, so that the lint roller 35 adheres to the top of the film to be coated, and at the same time, the suction roller 35 is pulled to move towards the fixed plate 38. The dust suction slot on the lower side of the dust hood 31 is close to the top of the film. Compressed air is then introduced into the vacuum generator 33, thereby generating suction in the dust hood 31 through the dust suction pipe 32, and then the film to be coated is suctioned. At the same time, a lint roller 35 is provided in the dust hood 31. The lint roller 35 rolls on the top of the film to stick and adsorb hair attracted by electrostatics, preventing hair and other debris from entering the coating area with the film. In addition, when coating the material on the top of the film, the auxiliary motor 45 drives the auxiliary roller 44 to rotate to assist the transport of the coated film. Then, the support roller 46 rolls and supports the coated film, and then the coated film enters multiple drying chambers 2 for drying. After the coating material on the film is dried, the rotating part of the winding motor 63 drives the winding roller 61 on the winding frame 62 to rotate, thereby winding the coated film around the outside of the winding roller 61.

[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
