CONVEYOR ADAPTED FOR BATTERY MANUFACTURING PROCESS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18380463 titled 'CONVEYOR ADAPTED FOR BATTERY MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure relates to a conveyor system designed to prevent rubbing of a long sheet material in a manufacturing process.
- The conveyor includes a roller for conveying the material, a shaft through the roller, a bearing between the roller and the shaft, and a driver to rotate the shaft in the same direction as the roller.
- The system is specifically adapted for use in a battery manufacturing process, circuit board manufacturing process, or printing process.
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in various industries such as battery manufacturing, circuit board manufacturing, and printing processes.
Problems Solved
The conveyor system prevents rubbing of the long sheet material by utilizing a driver to rotate the shaft in the same direction as the roller, thus avoiding damage to the material.
Benefits
The system ensures the smooth conveyance of long sheet materials without causing any damage, leading to improved efficiency and quality in the manufacturing process.
Potential Commercial Applications
The conveyor system can be utilized in battery manufacturing facilities, circuit board manufacturing plants, and printing companies to enhance the production process.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be conveyor systems with rollers, but the specific design of this system to prevent rubbing of long sheet materials may be a novel innovation.
Unanswered Questions
How does the conveyor system handle different types of long sheet materials?
The article does not provide information on the adaptability of the system to various materials and whether any adjustments are needed for different types of long sheet materials.
What maintenance is required for the conveyor system to ensure optimal performance?
The article does not mention any maintenance requirements or best practices for the upkeep of the conveyor system to ensure its longevity and efficiency.
Original Abstract Submitted
In a manufacturing process of a battery or a circuit board, or a printing process, there is a case where a long sheet material is conveyed from an unwinding unit to a winding unit. One object of the present disclosure is to provide a technique capable of preventing the long sheet material from being rubbed by a roller when the material is conveyed. The present disclosure relates to a conveyor adapted for a battery manufacturing process. The conveyor comprises a roller configured to convey a long sheet material, a shaft through the roller; a bearing installed between the roller and the shaft, and a driver configured to rotate the shaft in the same direction as a rotating direction of the roller conveying the long sheet material.
