Abstract: Provided is a fabricating apparatus for a secondary battery, the fabricating apparatus including: a base material supplier configured to supply a base material; a winder configured to wind the base material through a mandrel; and a controller configured to control a base material supply amount of the base material supplier and a mandrel rotation amount of the winder, wherein the controller is further configured to store a profile of the base material supply amount with respect to the mandrel rotation amount, and to synchronously control the base material supply amount and the mandrel rotation amount based on the profile.

Abstract: A system for rolling electrode plates includes: supplying units for supplying first and second electrode plates and separators; electrode processing units for forming first electrode tabs having gradually increasing intervals between tabs on one side of the first electrode plate and second electrode tabs having gradually increasing intervals between tabs on one side of the second electrode plate by performing cutting processes on the sides of the first and second electrode plates; an assembling unit for forming an electrode assembly by rolling the first and second electrode plates and the separators; and buffer units for temporarily storing the first and second electrode plates to compensate for differences in processing rates and base material transfer amounts between the electrode processing units and the assembling unit, and for transmitting the temporarily stored first and second electrode plates to the assembling unit.

Abstract: A device for winding an electrode plate includes a feed roller configured to guide a first electrode plate or a second electrode plate, each of the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate including a plurality of electrode tabs protruding from one side, a deformation reducing member spaced apart from an outer circumferential surface of one end of the feed roller and configured to guide the electrode tabs fed to the feed roller to be brought into close contact with the outer circumferential surface of the one end of the feed roller to reduce deformation of the electrode tabs, and a winding unit configured to wind together the first electrode plate or the second electrode plate transferred by the feed roller and a separator interposed between the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate.

Abstract: A rechargeable battery and a manufacturing method of the same are provided, which can aid in preventing an electric short from occurring between electrode plates by forming a cutting portion of each on the electrode plates in the shape of a curved surface or a bead having a uniform thickness and/or a diameter sufficient to prevent or substantially prevent the cutting portion from piercing a separator separating the electrode plates from each other. In a present embodiment, the electrode assembly includes an electrode plate having a current collector plate, a coating portion having an electrically active material coated on the current collector plate, a non-coating portion formed at an edge of the current collector plate and not coated with the electrically active material, a cutting portion inwardly formed from the non-coating portion, and a curved portion formed along the cutting portion in a thickness direction of the non-coating portion.
