Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is an electrode drying device, which includes a drying chamber configured to accommodate a roll-shaped electrode, and a drying unit provided in the drying chamber to dry the electrode, the drying unit being configured to surround the electrode.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An electrode drying device, comprising: a drying chamber configured to accommodate a roll-shaped electrode; and a drying unit provided in the drying chamber to dry the electrode, the drying unit being configured to surround the electrode. 2 . The electrode drying device according to claim 1 , wherein the drying unit includes: a heat source for giving heat to dry the electrode; and a clamping part for supplying the heat provided from the heat source to the electrode, the clamping part being configured to surround an outer surface of the electrode. 3 . The electrode drying device according to claim 2 , wherein an inner surface of the clamping part is in direct contact with the outer surface of the electrode. 4 . The electrode drying device according to claim 3 , wherein the clamping part presses the electrode to prevent heat loss of the electrode. 5 . The electrode drying device according to claim 2 , wherein a heat wire is provided at an inner surface of the clamping part. 6 . The electrode drying device according to claim 2 , wherein the clamping part is made of thermally conductive material. 7 . The electrode drying device according to claim 6 , wherein the clamping part is made of stainless steel. 8 . The electrode drying device according to claim 2 , wherein the clamping part includes: a first clamping member configured to surround a portion of the outer surface of the electrode; and a second clamping member pivotally mounted to the first clamping member to surround the other portion of outer surface of the electrode. 9 . The electrode drying device according to claim 2 , wherein the drying chamber has a vacuum atmosphere therein. 10 . A battery cell, comprising an electrode manufactured using the electrode drying device defined in claim 1 .
