Description
본 발명(Disclosure)은, 이차전지 실링공정용 가압장치에 관한 것으로서, 구체적으로 이차전지 파우치의 실링공정에서 실링 위치에 관계없이 균일한 누름력을 제공할 수 있는 이차전지 실링공정용 가압장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention (Disclosure) relates to a pressurizing device for a secondary battery sealing process, and specifically, to a pressurizing device for a secondary battery sealing process capable of providing a uniform pressing force regardless of the sealing position in the sealing process of a secondary battery pouch. will be.
여기서는, 본 발명에 관한 배경기술이 제공되며, 이들이 반드시 공지기술을 의미하는 것은 아니다(This section provides background information related to the present disclosure which is not necessarily prior art).Here, background technology related to the present invention is provided, and these do not necessarily mean known technology (This section provides background information related to the present disclosure which is not necessarily prior art).
일반적인 파우치형 이차전지셀은, 양극과 음극판 및 분리막을 포함하는 전극 조립체가 적층되어, 전해액과 함께 파우치 포일(foil)에 수용된 구조이다. 파우치 포일은 그 끝단이 가열 압착되어 접합된 실링부를 갖는 봉지구조이다. A typical pouch-type secondary battery cell has a structure in which an electrode assembly including a positive electrode, a negative electrode plate, and a separator is stacked and accommodated in a pouch foil together with an electrolyte. The pouch foil is an encapsulation structure having a sealing portion joined by heating and pressing the ends thereof.
끝단이 접합되어 실링부가 형성된 파우치 포일은, 내부에 수용되는 전극 조립체를 외부의 물리적 충격으로부터 보호한다. 또한 내부에 수용되는 전극 조립체 및 전해액이 외부 환경과 화학적으로 반응하거나 외부로 누출되는 것을 방지한다. 뿐만 아니라, 노출된 파우치 포일 끝단면의 화학적 변성을 방지함으로써 파우치 포일 자체의 파손을 방지한다.The pouch foil with its ends joined to form a sealing part protects the electrode assembly accommodated therein from external physical impact. In addition, the electrode assembly and the electrolyte contained therein are prevented from chemically reacting with the external environment or leaking to the outside. In addition, the pouch foil itself is prevented from being damaged by preventing chemical modification of the exposed end of the pouch foil.
따라서 파우치형 이차전지에서 파우치 포일의 실링부는, 그 길이 방향으로 균일한 접합 특성을 가져야 한다.Therefore, in the pouch-type secondary battery, the sealing portion of the pouch foil must have uniform bonding characteristics in the longitudinal direction.
실링부의 균일한 접합 특성을 구현함에 있어서, 접합 두께의 균일성은 가장 중요한 요소중에 하나이다. In realizing the uniform bonding characteristics of the sealing portion, the uniformity of the bonding thickness is one of the most important factors.
상술한 바와 같이 실링부는, 파우치 포일이 가열 압착됨으로써 형성되므로, 실링부의 두께가 균일하지 않으면, 파우치 포일에 인가된 압력 또는 열이 불균일하다는 것을 의미한다. 실링부의 일반적인 두께 규격은 15㎛이다. As described above, since the sealing portion is formed by heating and pressing the pouch foil, if the thickness of the sealing portion is not uniform, it means that the pressure or heat applied to the pouch foil is non-uniform. The general thickness standard of the sealing part is 15㎛.
도 1은 종래의 이차전지 실링공정용 가압장치를 설명하는 도면이다.1 is a diagram illustrating a conventional pressurizing device for a secondary battery sealing process.
도 1에 나타낸 바와 같이, 종래의 이차전지 실링공정용 가압장치의 구조는, 내부에 히터(p11)가 길이 방향으로 내장된 실링 바(p10)와 실링을 위한 구동력을 실링 바(p10)에 제공하는 구동부(p20)를 포함한다. As shown in FIG. 1, the structure of a conventional pressurizing device for a secondary battery sealing process provides a sealing bar p10 in which a heater p11 is built in the longitudinal direction and a driving force for sealing to the sealing bar p10. It includes a driving unit (p20).
구동부(p20)는 실링 바(p10)의 길이방향으로 전체에 균일한 구동력을 제공하지 못하고, 특정 위치에서 구동력을 제공하는 구조이다. The driving unit p20 does not provide a uniform driving force to the entire length in the longitudinal direction of the sealing bar p10, and has a structure that provides driving force at a specific position.
실링 바(p10)의 길이방향 전체에 균일한 구동력을 제공할 수 있는 구동부(p20)의 구조는, 매우 복잡하고 비용 면에서 합리적이지 않다. The structure of the driving unit p20 capable of providing a uniform driving force to the entire longitudinal direction of the sealing bar p10 is very complex and not reasonable in terms of cost.
그런데, 실링 바(p10)의 길이가 확장되면, 실링 바(p10)에 인가되는 구동력의 불균일이 더 커진다. However, when the length of the sealing bar p10 is extended, the non-uniformity of the driving force applied to the sealing bar p10 becomes larger.
도 1을 참조하면, 구동부(p20)가 실링 바(p10)에 구동력을 제공하여 파우치 포일(1)을 가압할 때, 실링 바(p10)가 휘어진다(p10a). 휘어진 실링 바(p10a)는, 파우치 포일(1)에 균일한 압력을 인가하지 못한다.Referring to FIG. 1, when the driving unit p20 presses the
따라서 가열 압착되는 파우치 포일(1)의 두께 균일성이 확보되지 못하며, 길이방향을 따른 접합 특성이 균일성을 확보하지 못하는 문제점이 있다. Therefore, there is a problem in that the uniformity of the thickness of the
한편, 최근 이차전지의 대형화되면서, 실링부의 길이가 길어지고 있다. 이에 따라 길이가 확장된 실링 바를 장착한 실링공정용 가압장치에 대한 개발이 필요한 실정이다.On the other hand, with the recent increase in the size of secondary batteries, the length of the sealing portion is getting longer.

도 8에서 확인할 수 있듯이, 도 7과 비교하여 그외 방향의 팽창 작용(b2)에서 실링 바(40)의 휨현상에 작용하는 벡터 성분이 더 크다. As can be seen in FIG. 8, compared to FIG. 7, the vector component acting on the bending phenomenon of the sealing
만일, 도 7에서, 육면체 형상의 팽창블럭(30)을 사용하고, 가압구동 바(20)와 실링 바(40)에 육면체 형상의 함몰부가 형성되면, 도 8과 같이 그외 방향의 팽창 작용(b1)이 실링 바(40)의 휘어짐 보정에 더 그게 작용할 수 있다. If, in FIG. 7, a
그러나 이렇게 되면, 팽창블럭(30)의 돌출된 모서리와 그에 맞춤되는 가압가동 바(20)와 실링 바(40)의 모서리에 팽창력이 집중되어, 파손의 위험이 발생한다. However, in this case, the expansion force is concentrated in the protruding corner of the
따라서 본 발명에 따른 이차전지 실링공정용 가압장치에서, 가압구동 바(20)와 실링 바(40)는, 바람직하게는, 복수의 팽창블럭(30)의 일부가 맞춤되는 함몰부가 형성된다. 이때, 복수의 팽창블럭(30)은, 바람직하게는, 원통형형상이다. Therefore, in the pressurizing apparatus for a secondary battery sealing process according to the present invention, the
