Abstract
Description
これらの塗布層の代表的な製造方法には、いくつかの方法がある。例えば、集電体上に連続的に活物質を塗布した電極原反を、電極打ち抜き手段によって所定の大きさの電極を作製する方法である。また、集電体上に間欠的に活物質を塗布した後に電極打ち抜き手段によって所望の電極を作製する方法である。
電極層を間欠的に塗布する方法では、電池製造工程での最終的な電池電極において利用しない塗布層を減少させることができるという利点はあるが、表裏の電極塗布層を一致させるための手段が必要となる。
図5は、従来の間欠塗布電池電極製造方法の一例を説明する図であり、図5Aは、塗布工程を説明する図である。また、図5Bは、両面に塗布層を形成した図5AのDの部分の断面を拡大して説明する断面図である。また、図5Cは、第一面上に間欠的に形成した電極活物質の塗布層を説明する平面図である。
次いで、先端検出手段104が検出した第一面間欠塗布層103aの先端部の検出信号を受信した第二面塗布ダイ制御手段105bは、集電体の移動速度によって決まる前記先端部裏面が到達する時点で第二面塗布ダイ102bに設けたシャッターを開いて塗布を開始し、所定の時間の経過後にシャッターを閉じることで、第一面間欠塗布層103aの反対面に第二面間欠塗布層103bを形成している。
リチウムイオン二次電池では、セパレーターを介して対向する正極活物質層と負極活物質層の位置ずれが電池の特性に大きな影響を及ぼすために、表裏で活物質層の位置ずれを生じた電極を電池に利用することはできず、作製した電極を廃棄せざるを得なかった。
図5Cに示す様に、集電体101の第一面に間欠塗布層103を形成した場合には塗布層の先端には基準面からずれを生じた不規則面105の形成を避けるという問題の解消は困難であった。
上記の問題は、前記の不規則面105が電池の充放電特性に悪影響を及ぼすことがない程度の小さなものであっても、塗布部の先端を検出する先端検出手段104がこれらの不規則面105の一部を先端部107であると誤認して検出することに起因するものであった。
また、第二面塗布ダイの制御手段105bに対しても誤った先端部検出信号を送信する結果、第一面間欠塗布層103aと第二面間欠塗布層103bとが集電体の表裏では一致せずに位置ずれが生じざるを得なかった。
図1は、本発明の間欠塗布電池電極製造方法における集電体の製造工程の一実施態様を説明する図である。
集電体ロール100から引き出した集電体101の活物質の塗布を予定していない部分に、レーザー刻印機またはインクジェット印刷手段等の金属表面に先端指標を形成可能な先端指標形成手段120によって、図1Bに平面図を示すように、先端指標125を形成する。
隣接する先端指標125間の間隔は、集電体の長さ方向の間欠塗布層の長さに、正極タブ、負極タブとして利用する部分の長さ、および製造時の取り扱いに必要な長さを考慮して作製することができる。
以上の様にして、先端指標を125を形成した集電体101は、巻き取りロール100bに巻き取った後に、間欠塗布工程において集電体の両面に電極活物質を塗布することができる。
図2Aは、集電体ロール100から引き出した集電体101の活物質を塗布しない領域に、レーザー刻印機またはインクジェット塗布手段等の金属表面に先端指標を形成可能な先端位置形成手段120によって、図2Bに平面図を示すように、先端指標125を形成する。
隣接する先端指標125間は、集電体の長さ方向の間欠塗布層の長さに、正極タブ、負極タブとして利用する部分の長さ、および製造時の取り扱いに必要な長さを考慮して設定することができる。
このように、一方の面側の活物質の塗布は先端位置検出手段を用いずに、先端位置形成手段の動作信号を、間欠塗布層の塗布ダイの動作信号とすればよい。
また、先端位置検出手段を用いた場合には、先端位置形成手段側にも先端位置検出手段を設ける必要が生じるが、先端位置形成手段の動作信号を用いることで、以下の利点を得ることができる。
すなわち、図2のように先端位置検出手段を集電箔に対して一方の面側だけに設ければよいことになり、塗布機の部品点数を減少することが可能となる。
間欠塗布層を形成した集電体101は、乾燥炉200によって乾燥した後に、巻き取りロール100bによって巻き取って、一方の面に活物質の間欠塗布層を形成した巻き取りロールを得ることができる。
更に乾燥炉200で乾燥して両面に活物質の間欠塗布層を形成した集電体を巻き取りロール100cに巻き取ることで両面に活物質の間欠塗布層を形成した巻き取りロールを得ることができる。
以上の説明では、前記先端位置形成手段120の動作信号に基づいて、先端指標125の形成と同時に、先端位置に対応する部分から塗布ダイ102によって活物質の間欠塗布層103aを形成する例について説明したが、塗布装置の両面に先端指標検出手段を設けても良い。
なお、先端位置形成手段および先端位置検出手段は、集電箔に加わる張力の微小な変化やたわみ等の影響を受けて動作のばらつきが生じることがないように、塗布ダイとの距離を可能な範囲で近づけるのが好ましい。
図3Aに示すように、集電体ロール100から取り出した集電体101を、塗布ダイ方向へと一定の速度で引き出すと、先端指標形成手段120で先端指標125を形成する。 先端指標の形成と同時に、形成した先端指標125の先端位置に対応して第一面塗布ダイ102aのシャッターを開いて間欠電極層の塗布を開始する。次いで、所定の塗布長に達した時点で第一面塗布ダイ102aのシャッターを閉じる。
次いで、第一面間欠塗布層103aを形成した集電体は、乾燥炉200aにおいて乾燥を行って第一面間欠塗布層が完成する。
その結果、集電体101の移動速度から演算した先端位置の到達時点で、第二面塗布ダイ102bのシャッターを開き、第二面へ活物質層の塗布を開始する。
そして、所定の塗布長に達した時点で第二面塗布ダイ102bのシャッターを閉じることで、図3Cに示すように第二面間欠塗布層103bを形成する。
次いで、第二面間欠塗布層103bを形成した集電体は、乾燥炉200bにおいて乾燥を完了して塗布層が完成する。
したがって、第一面の反対面に相互の位置ずれを生じることなく第二面にも間欠塗布層を形成することができるので、位置精度の優れた間欠塗布電極を製造することができる。
また、第二先端位置検出手段104bを、第二面塗布ダイの直前に設けているダンサーロール(図示せず)よりも第二面塗布ダイ102b側に配置することが好ましい。更に、第二先端位置検出手段104bを可能な範囲で第二面塗布ダイに近い位置に形成するのが好ましい。なお、第二面の活物質の間欠塗布の動作を先端位置形成手段120の動作信号に基づいて行わないのは以下の理由による。すなわち、ダンサーロールによって先端位置形成手段から第二面塗布ダイまでの距離が一定にならないためである。
本実施態様は、図1、図2、図3で説明した先端指標に代えて、先端指標125に加えて識別情報127を一体に形成した識別情報付先端指標129を設けている点が相違している。
したがって、先端指標125による先端位置の検出とともに、それぞれの間欠塗布層103の識別を可能としている。
間欠塗布層の作製後の検査において、例えば厚みの異常を検出した場合には、集電体の幅方向の位置を示すA,B,C,D,Eのそれぞれの位置と、厚みの異常等の欠陥を検出した部位等を識別情報127と関連づけて記録することができる。その結果、間欠塗布層から単位電極を切り出した場合に、先の検査において欠陥を検出した単位電極を選別して排除することが可能となる。
図4Cで示す実施態様では、集電体から切り出して作製する各単位電極毎に、それぞれの電極タブの形成部位に、識別情報付先端指標を、集電体の長さ方向に直角な一直線上に並ぶように配置したものである。
このように、集電体から切り出す単位電極のそれぞれの電極タブの形成部に前記識別情報付き先端指標を設けると、作製した各単位電極をそれぞれの識別情報で管理することが可能となる。したがって、本実施態様の単位電極を使用して作製した電池についてはトレーサビリティーを向上することができる。
また、前記識別情報付先端指標が、電池組立後に電池外装材の内部に位置するものにあっては、電池の電解液等によって溶出しないようにするために金属面にレーザー刻印機によって形成する必要がある。一方、電池外装材の外部に位置するものでは、インクジェット印刷手段を用いて形成することができる。
なお、本発明において活物質の位置ずれとは、必ずしも集電体の表裏で活物質の塗布端が完全に一致していないもののみを指すのではなく、意図した状態から電極がずれていることを意味する。例えば、集電体の表裏で活物質の塗布端を意図的に一致させない状態で電極を形成した場合には、その意図的に一致させない状態からのずれのことを意味する。
