A dryer for an electrode substrate of a rechargeable battery according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes: a drying oven for drying an electrode substrate by feeding the electrode substrate to an inlet and discharging it through an outlet; fixed guide rolls provided at a distance from each other between the inlet and the outlet to guide the electrode substrate; lifting guide rolls ascended or descended at one side of the respective fixed guide rolls to guide the moving electrode substrate; driving rolls disposed to correspond to locations of the lifting guide rolls; and a shuttle moving toward the outlet from the inlet.

Dryer for electrode substrate of rechargeable battery and controlling method of the same

The present invention provides an active material coating apparatus to form an active material layer having a uniform thickness in a width direction of a substrate when forming the active material layer on a substrate. An active material coating apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a lower die having a groove for supplying an active material of a slurry state and forming a first lip portion of an outlet slot connected to the groove and outputting the active material; an upper die disposed on an upper side of the lower die to face the first lip portion, having a second lip portion of the outlet slot, and having a hinge portion at the rear of the second lip portion according to the outlet direction of the active material; a fixing spacer interposed between the lower die and the upper die at the rear of the hinge portion according to the outlet direction of the active material and determining a fixing gap; a flexible spacer interposed between the first lip portion and the second lip portion on both sides of the width direction of the outlet slot and forming a variable gap; and a controller installed to the upper die and pushing/pulling the second lip portion with respect to the hinge portion to control the variable gap between the first lip portion and the second lip portion.

Active material coating apparatus and coating method using the same

A coating apparatus to apply a coating solution onto a base material, including a first body portion, a second body portion spaced-apart by a gap from the first body portion, a coating solution inlet arranged in one region of the second body portion, a coating solution passage connecting the coating solution inlet to said gap, a coating solution outlet arranged at one end of the gap to discharge the coating solution supplied to the coating solution inlet and a gap adjusting arrangement including a plurality of gap adjusting portions arranged on the first body portion to adjust a size of the coating solution outlet, the plurality of gap adjusting portions being arranged in a width direction of the base material.
