Abstract

PURPOSE:To efficiently and homogeneously pack a pasty active material into a continuous belt-like porous material by using a roller having several grooves which rotates in a direction reverse to the direction in which the porous material is moved. CONSTITUTION:A continuous belt-like porous material 1 is immersed in a pasty active material contained in a paste tank 2. A tension roll 8 is used to lift the material 1 through a reverse rotation roll 3 along a fixed plate 5. A roller 4 having several grooves is placed on the fixed plate 5 and then is rotated in a direction reverse to the direction in which the porous material is moved to pack pasty active material into the material 1. Rotation of the roller 4 produces a constant flow rate of the pasty active material thereby intermittently compressing and packing pasty active material into the material 1 and smoothly removing air bubbles. Therefore, it is possible to homogeneously pack pasty active material into the material 1 continuously and efficiently.

Since these continuous band-shaped porous bodies are not microporous like conventional sintered bodies of metal powder, they can be directly filled with the active material. Conventional methods for filling this continuous band-shaped porous body with active material for batteries include the so-called calendar roll method in which paste-like active material is forced into the material using a four-fiber, and the method in which the active material is sprayed using a spray gun.
The former takes time to fill uniformly, and the latter also requires some time.
The drawback was that it could only be filled with

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a filling method for filling a continuous strip-shaped porous body with a paste-like active material, in which a roller having a plurality of grooves that rotates in a direction opposite to the direction of movement of the porous body is provided. This is a filling method in which the porous body is filled in close proximity to the porous body with a gap provided therebetween without contacting the porous body.

The continuous strip-shaped porous body 1 is immersed in a paste tank 2 in which a paste-like active material is stored, and is pulled up through an inversion whirl 3. At this time, the porous body is pulled up along the fixing plate 5, and the paste-like active material is filled into the fields having a plurality of grooves on the fixing plate. This roller rotates in a direction opposite to the direction in which the porous body moves.

Normally, simply immersing a porous body in a paste-like active material does not push out the air bubbles inside the porous body, so that only the vicinity of the surface of the porous body is filled. In the present invention, a roller having a plurality of grooves is rotated in reverse in a paste solution and brought close to each other.

The pasty active material near the surface of the porous body is intermittently compressed by rotating a roller with a plurality of grooves in the pasty active material in reverse to generate a constant flow velocity. As a result, the paste-like active material is gradually pushed inside. Air bubbles forced out by internal penetration of the paste-like active material are removed by a rotating roller. Uniform filling becomes possible by smoothly penetrating the paste and removing air bubbles accordingly. If the rotation speed of the drum is too slow or too fast,
It was found that there was no effect and that there were appropriate conditions. This condition may vary depending on the size of the roller and the shape of the groove, but if the rotation speed is too slow, the paste will not flow in an intermittent manner with certain impingements, and will not flow quickly. If it is too high, the effect of the grooves on the roller will be reduced, and the paste will flow evenly.

0 r, p, m, degree is the most effective. ``A paste-like active material causes non-uniform dispersion of active material particles, but according to the present invention, non-uniformity can be prevented by rotating the paste-like active material at high speed. ” Effects of the Invention As described above, the present invention provides a filling method for filling a porous body with a paste-like active material. By generating a constant flow rate and filling with the resulting pressure I, it is possible to uniformly fill the paste-like active material continuously and efficiently.Also, the roller does not come into contact with the porous body. Therefore, it does not wear out due to its high industrial value.
