Abstract: An apparatus for picking and placing battery cell elements, and a high-speed stacking apparatus including the same are proposed. In detail, an apparatus for picking and placing battery cell elements, the apparatus automatically and alternately stacking a cathode plate and an anode plate, which are fed by a cathode plate feeder and an anode plate feeder, in gaps of a separator, which is folded and provided in a zigzag manner, and a high-speed stacking apparatus including the apparatus for picking and placing battery cell elements.

Abstract: An electrode assembly includes: a plurality of first electrodes, each including a first electrode portion having a first active material layer thereon and a first uncoated region electrically connected to the first electrode portion; a separation membrane including a plurality of receiving portions arranged at intervals and respectively accommodating the first electrode portions, the separation membrane being folded so that surfaces of adjacent ones of the receiving portions face each other; and a plurality of second electrodes respectively positioned between adjacent ones of the receiving portions that face each other to overlap a corresponding one of the first electrode portions. The plurality of second electrodes each include a second electrode portion having a second active material layer thereon and a second uncoated region electrically connected to the second electrode portion.

Abstract: An apparatus of correcting belt-meandering for a secondary battery is disclosed. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes i) upper and lower rollers configured to receive a base material therebetween, wherein the base material comprises positive and negative electrode materials and an insulating material interposed between the electrode materials and ii) a driver portion configured to rotate the upper and lower rollers such that the base material is transferred in a first direction during the rotation. The apparatus may also include i) a support portion configured to support shafts of the driver portion and the upper and lower rollers and ii) a transverse moving mechanism configured to move the support portion in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction.
