So as to be sent into and send out coating station by wind-up roll and let off roll driving on roller, wind-up roll and let off roll form to carry pole piece
And drive the movement supporting body of pole piece movement.
The top of coating station 11 is provided with applicator unit, and applicator unit includes applying head 3 and storage device 1, applying head 3
With storage device 1 by unicom pipeline unicom, the pole piece softening agent applicator system further includes control applicator unit and is smeared
The control unit of operation.Described control unit includes the controller 2 being set on unicom pipeline and pole piece position is determined
The Position monitoring devices 4 of position monitoring, locating and detecting device 4 are located at the downstream of applying head 3, and controller 2 is logical with Position monitoring devices 4
News connection and the break-make that unicom pipeline is controlled according to the feedback signal of Position monitoring devices, and then smear and soften to pole piece bent area
Agent softens the active material layer of pole piece bent area.In the present embodiment, the locating and detecting device 4 is to movement
The sensing detection device of location hole or lug location fit on pole piece.
In the present embodiment, there are one the applying heads 3, an applying head 3 is by being repeatedly coated with to the multiple curved of pole piece
Folding area is coated, because of increasing with the pole piece coiling number of plies, the spacing on pole piece between adjacent bend area gradually increases, because
This, controller 2 is connected with driving device communication with the movement speed by controlling pole piece, is carried out in the pole piece to a battery core soft
During change, the movement speed of pole piece is controlled gradually to become faster, so as to the distance from front to back for moving identical time interval interior pole
Increase, so that the spacing between the adjacent dispensing area of same pole piece becomes larger from front to back.
In addition, 11 downstream of coating station is provided with drying unit.In the present embodiment, the drying unit is baking oven
5, the channel passed through for pole piece is provided in baking oven.The applying head is fixed applying head, and for by spraying on pole piece
Smear the contactless applying head of softening agent.
