  • Patent number: 11839993
    Abstract: Discussed is an apparatus for notching an electrode sheet, the apparatus including a transfer unit having first and second transfer rollers provided on a bottom surface of the electrode sheet to transfer the electrode sheet at regular intervals, a jig unit provided below the electrode sheet, and supporting the bottom surface of the non-coating portion and a notching unit provided above the electrode sheet to notch the non-coating portion supported on the jig unit to provide the electrode tab, wherein the jig unit includes a rotation member provided between the first and second transfer rollers and rotated in a direction perpendicular to a transfer direction of the electrode sheet, two or more jigs provided on an outer circumferential surface of the rotation member to alternately support the non-coating portion disposed between the first and second transfer rollers when the rotation member is rotated.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220149422
    Abstract: Disclosed are an electrode assembly manufacturing method including sequentially stacking a first electrode, a separator, and a second electrode on a separation film having a continuous length to form mono-cells, each of the first electrode, the separator, and the second electrode being cut to a predetermined size from a winding roll so as to have a discontinuous structure, bonding the stacked mono-cells using a lamination device, locating a bi-cell at a folding start part, from which folding starts, on the separation film so as to be spaced apart from the mono-cells by a distance for folding, and performing folding in one direction with the bi-cell as a beginning, whereby it is possible to immediately perform the folding process without a separate preparation process after the lamination process in order to simplify the electrode assembly production process, and an electrode assembly manufactured by the method.
