Intermittent coating of moving surfaces
View Patent ↗A method of intermittently coating a moving surface with paste containing electrochemically active particles by a nozzle having a slot-shaped delivery opening includes supplying paste to the delivery opening from a paste reservoir via a transport channel and regulating paste supply to the delivery opening with a rotatably mounted control axle which enables the paste supply to the delivery opening in a first switching position and, in a second switching position, blocks the transport channel and disconnects a section of the transport channel extending as far as the delivery opening from the paste supply, wherein the rotatably mounted control axle comprises a passage via which the paste reservoir is in communicating connection with the delivery opening in the first switching position and the disconnected section of the transport channel is in communicating connection with the reduced pressure source in the second switching position.
1. A method of intermittently coating a moving surface with paste containing electrochemically active particles by a nozzle having a slot-shaped delivery opening comprising:
supplying paste to the delivery opening from a paste reservoir via a transport channel; and
regulating paste supply to the delivery opening with a rotatably mounted control axle which enables the paste supply to the delivery opening in a first switching position and, in a second switching position, blocks the transport channel and disconnects a section of the transport channel extending as far as the delivery opening from the paste supply,
wherein the rotatably mounted control axle comprises a passage
via which the paste reservoir is in communicating connection with the delivery opening in the first switching position and
via which the delivery opening is in communicating connection with the reduced pressure source in the second switching position.
2. A method of intermittently coating a moving surface with paste containing electrochemically active particles by a nozzle having a slot-shaped delivery opening comprising:
supplying the paste to the delivery opening from a paste reservoir via a transport channel,
regulating the paste supply to the delivery opening with a controller which enables the paste supply to the delivery opening in a first switching position and, in a second switching position, blocks the transport channel and disconnects a section of the transport channel extending as far as the delivery opening from the paste supply, and
applying a reduced pressure to the section of the transport channel disconnected from the paste supply when the controller is in the second switching position, the controller being formed such that it connects the delivery opening to a reduced pressure source in the second switching position.
3. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the controller is a rotatably mounted control axle comprising a passage via which the paste reservoir is in communicating connection with the delivery opening in the first switching position and the disconnected part of the transport channel is in communicating connection with the reduced pressure source in the second switching position.
4. The method as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the control axle is rotatably mounted in a bore into which the transport channel and a reduced pressure channel coming from the reduced pressure source open.
