Disclosed herein is a folding device to manufacture a stacked/folded type electrode assembly having unit cells sequentially stacked in a state in which a separation film is disposed between the respective unit cells, the folding device including a web supply unit to supply a web having plate-shaped unit cells arranged at the top of a separation film at predetermined intervals, a winding jig to rotate the unit cells while holding a first one of the unit cells of the web so that the unit cells are sequentially stacked in a state in which the separation film is disposed between the respective unit cells, and a Y-axis directional rotary shaft compensation unit to compensate for a position of a rotary shaft of the winding jig in a direction (Y-axis direction) perpendicular to an advancing direction of the web, wherein the Y-axis directional rotary shaft compensation unit periodically changes the position of the rotary shaft in the direction (Y axis) perpendicular to the advancing direction (X axis) of the web to minimize vertical amplitude of the web during winding.

Device for folding electrode assembly

Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a battery cell including an electrode assembly and electrolyte provided in a battery case made of a laminate sheet having a resin layer and a metal layer, which includes: (a) mounting the electrode assembly in the battery case and sealing the periphery of the battery case except for one end part thereof through thermal fusion; (b) introducing the electrolyte through the unsealed end part and sealing the end via thermal fusion; (c) charging-discharging the battery cell to activate the same; (d) transferring gas generated during activation and excess electrolyte to the foregoing end part of the battery cell by centrifugal force; and (e) removing the gas and excess electrolyte from the end part.

Degassing method of secondary battery using centrifugal force

Disclosed is a device for notching, at an interval of a unit electrode, a continuous electrode sheet in which an electrode active material is applied to one or both surfaces thereof, to form a plurality of unit electrodes from the electrode sheet, the device including a press to press notches on the top and the bottom of the electrode sheet at a set position, and a drawing member arranged at the rear of the press based on a feed direction of the electrode sheet, the drawing member drawing and transporting the electrode sheet by one pitch, a size corresponding to the unit electrode according to operation of the press, wherein, when one of the grippers draws and transports the electrode sheet, the remaining grippers move to a position for drawing.

Device for notching and secondary battery manufactured using the same

Disclosed is a unit cell transfer apparatus for arranging and delivering unit cells to a folding device, which is used in a continuous process for manufacturing a stack/folding type electrode assembly having a structure of planar unit cells wound up over a separate film.
