Generally, the granulating cavity 20 may be provided in a square or circular shape, and in this embodiment, the granulating cavity 20 is provided in a circular shape for convenience in other components and the arrangement of the movement mechanism therein, and for improving the utilization efficiency of the granulating apparatus.
The granulation cardboard 30, this granulation cardboard 30 is last the equipartition to set up a plurality of granulation holes 301, and granulation hole 301 sets up and sets up to the through-hole along granulation cardboard thickness direction for can form the granular material that will obtain when impressing the granulation downthehole with the material, set up to the through-hole structure and then make things convenient for the material granule to discharge in the granulation hole, in order to realize continuous granulation operation. The granulation clamping plate 30 is fixedly arranged in the granulation cavity 20, and at this time, the granulation clamping plate 30 divides the cavity in the granulation cavity into two independent cavities, namely a feeding cavity 201 positioned at the upper part and a discharging cavity 202 positioned at the lower part.

The effect that the electrode material granulating apparatus in the above embodiment can achieve in preparing an electrode material will be further described below with reference to specific examples.
Examples
The preparation method comprises the steps of taking nano silicon serving as a precursor, taking asphalt as a carbon source, mechanically mixing the nano silicon and the asphalt for 2 hours, taking out, and starting the granulating device to granulate, wherein the power of a motor is 2kw, the rotating speed is set to 500r/min, the weights of two pressing rollers are respectively 20kg, the discharge diameter of a granulating hole is 5mm, the granulating length is 10mm, and the pushing and withdrawing interval time of a cutting push plate is 30s.

The assembled button cell was subjected to electrochemical performance testing, and the relevant performance data are shown in table 1.
Comparative example
