Referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of a coated gasket according to the present invention is representatively illustrated. In this exemplary embodiment, the present invention provides a coating pad that is exemplified by a coating apparatus applied to the surface of a battery foil. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications, additions, substitutions, deletions, or other changes may be made to the specific embodiments described below in order to apply the inventive concepts described herein to other types of coating equipment or other processes, and such changes are within the scope of the principles of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the coating pad of the present invention includes a pad body 100 and a baffle plate 200. Referring to fig. 2 and 3 in combination, a side view of the coated gasket is representatively illustrated in fig. 2; a partial cross-sectional view taken along line a-a of fig. 1 is representatively illustrated in fig. 3. The structure, connection and functional relationship of the main components of the coated gasket according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
As shown in fig. 1 to 3, in the present embodiment, the gasket body 100 has the gasket opening 110 facing the first direction X, that is, the opening direction of the gasket opening 110 is the first direction X. The flow baffle 200 is disposed in the gasket opening 110, and the flow baffle 200 has a connection end 201 and a free end 202, and the connection end 201 of the flow baffle 200 is connected to the gasket body 100. On this basis, the choke plate 200 is provided with a relief area 210, the relief area 210 extends from the connecting end 201 to the free end 202 and penetrates the free end 202, and the thickness of the relief area 210 is smaller than the thickness d0 of the gasket body. Accordingly, when the utility model provides a coating gasket is installed in the coating die head, subduct at least a part of regional 210 and the position of the feeding chamber of coating die head corresponding. Through the structure design, the utility model provides a coating gasket is when installing in the coating die head, can not lead to the pressure release difficulty because of hiding the feeding cavity, the utility model discloses can flow through the regional 210 that subduct that keep off and flow board 200 supplies the thick liquids to flow, avoids the inhomogeneous problem of areal density of flash and pole piece.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, in the present embodiment, the abatement region 210 of the baffle plate 200 may have three sub-regions, and the three sub-regions are sequentially arranged along the extending direction of the baffle plate 200. For convenience of distinction and understanding, the three sub-regions are defined as a first sub-region 211, a second sub-region 212, and a third sub-region 213 in this specification. At least part of the first sub-region 211 is located at the connection end 201, the third sub-region 213 intersects the free end 202, and the second sub-region 212 is located between the first sub-region 211 and the third sub-region 213. On the basis of the structural design in which the thickness of the abatement zone 210 is less than the thickness d0 of the gasket body 100, the thickness d2 of the second sub-zone 212 is less than the thickness d1 of the first sub-zone 211 and greater than the thickness d3 of the third sub-zone 213.

In other embodiments, the abatement zone 210 of the flow baffle 200 may also include other numbers of sub-zones, and when the abatement zone 210 includes two or more sub-zones, the sub-zones are sequentially disposed along the extending direction (e.g., the first direction in the present embodiment) of the flow baffle 200. And at least part of one of the sub-areas is located at the connection end 201, and the other sub-area extends through the free end 202. On this basis, of any two sub-regions of the abatement zone 210, the thickness of the sub-region relatively close to the connection end 201 is greater than the thickness of the sub-region relatively far from the connection end 201, for example, the thickness d1 of the first sub-region 211 in the present embodiment is greater than the thickness d2 of the second sub-region 212, and the thickness d2 of the second sub-region 212 is greater than the thickness d3 of the third sub-region 213. In other words, in some embodiments, when the abatement region 210 of the baffle plate 200 comprises a plurality of sub-regions connected in series along the extension direction of the baffle plate 200, the thickness of the sub-regions may decrease in the direction from the connection end 201 to the free end 202.

In other embodiments, the ratio of the thickness d1 of the first sub-region 211 to the thickness d0 of the gasket body 100 may also be less than 70%, or may be greater than 80%, for example, 65%, 90%, etc., which is not limited to the embodiment.
Further, as shown in fig. 3, based on the structural design that the abatement region 210 of the baffle 200 includes three sub-regions, in the present embodiment, the thickness d2 of the second sub-region 212 may be 45% to 55%, for example, 45%, 48%, 50%, 55%, etc., of the thickness d0 of the gasket body 100. In other embodiments, the ratio of the thickness d2 of the second sub-region 212 to the thickness d0 of the gasket body 100 may also be less than 45%, or may be greater than 55%, for example, 40%, 60%, etc., which is not limited to the embodiment.
Further, as shown in fig. 3, based on the structural design that the abatement region 210 of the baffle 200 includes three sub-regions, in the present embodiment, the thickness d3 of the third sub-region 213 may be 20% to 30%, for example, 20%, 25%, 28%, 30%, etc., of the thickness d0 of the gasket body 100. In other embodiments, the ratio of the thickness d3 of the third sub-region 213 to the thickness d0 of the gasket body 100 may also be less than 20%, or may be greater than 30%, for example, 15%, 35%, and the like, which is not limited to the embodiment.

As shown in fig. 5, in the present embodiment, the thickness of the abatement zone 210 may decrease from the connection end 201 to the free end 202 in the extending direction of the baffle 200, and the thickness of the baffle 200 decreases from the connection end 201 to the free end 202 because the abatement zone 210 penetrates through the connection end 201 and the free end 202 of the baffle 200. That is, the thickness d4 of the connecting end portion 201 is greater than the thickness d5 of the free end portion 202.

Coated gasket example five
Based on the above detailed description of the first embodiment of the coated gasket proposed by the present invention, a fifth embodiment of the coated gasket will be described below with reference to fig. 7 to 9.

The structural design of this fifth embodiment, which differs from the first embodiment described above, will be explained below with reference to the above-mentioned drawings.
As shown in fig. 7 to 9, in the present embodiment, the flow baffle 200 may be provided with a drainage groove 220 penetrating the connection end 201 and the free end 202, and one end of the drainage groove 220 penetrates the free end 202, so that the drainage groove 220 is the subtraction area 210. On this basis, the thickness of the baffle 200 minus the depth of the drainage slots 220 is the thickness d6 of the abatement zone 210. Furthermore, the portions of the flow baffle 200 that form the walls of the flow directing grooves 220, i.e., the portions of the flow baffle 200 that are not provided with flow directing grooves 220, are blocking regions 230, and the blocking regions 230 include two regions that are located on two sides of the flow directing grooves 220. In addition, an overflow hole 240 is formed at a position of the bottom of the drainage groove 220 at the connection end 201, and the overflow hole 240 penetrates the baffle 200 in the thickness direction. Through the structural design, the overflow holes 240 and the drainage grooves 220 can drain slurry from the lower side of the flow channel, so that the situation that the surface density of pole pieces on two sides is high due to the fact that the flow baffle 200 blocks the slurry flowing to two sides fast is reduced, and the consistency of the surface density of the pole pieces is improved. Specifically, the overflow hole 240 can allow the slurry to overflow from the hole, so as to realize pressure relief, and the slurry flows in the drainage groove 220, so that on one hand, the pressure relief can be realized, on the other hand, the amount of the extracted fluid is small, and the effect of thinning the middle part can be realized.
Further, as shown in fig. 7 to 9, in the present embodiment, a leveling area 250 may be disposed on a side of the free end 202 of the baffle plate 200 away from the connection end 201, a thickness d7 of the leveling area 250 may be smaller than a thickness d0 of the gasket body, and one end of the drainage groove 220 located at the free end 202 is open, so that a groove cavity of the drainage groove 220 is communicated with the leveling area 250. Through the structural design, the slurry from the two sides of the drainage groove 220 and the leveling area 250 are gathered to the leveling area 250 together to form a low-slurry depression area, and finally the low-slurry depression area is coated on a foil to form middle thinning, and meanwhile, the stability of the size of the thinning area can be controlled.
Further, as shown in fig. 7, when the baffle plate 200 extends along the first direction, unlike the structure design in which the free end 202 of the baffle plate 200 extends to a position flush with the lip of the gasket opening 110, in the present embodiment, the free end 202 of the baffle plate 200 may have a gap G with the lip of the gasket opening 110. In other words, the free end 202 of the baffle 200 and the lip line L of the gasket opening 110 may have a gap G therebetween.
Further, as shown in fig. 8 and 9, unlike the structural design of the baffle plate 200 of the first to fourth embodiments in which the subtractive region 210 is disposed on all of the surface of the baffle plate 200, in the present embodiment, the subtractive region 210 of the baffle plate 200 does not occupy all of the surface thereof, that is, the thickness d8 of the other regions (e.g., the blocking regions 230) of the baffle plate 200 except for the flow-guiding grooves 220 (i.e., the subtractive region 210) may be equal to the thickness d0 of the gasket body 100.
Further, in this embodiment, the thickness d7 of the leveling region 250 may be approximately equal to the thickness d6 of the relief region 210.
