摘要： The system for separating battery cell cores includes a cell core holder for receiving and holding a battery cell core. A cutter cuts an outer wrapping layer of the battery cell core to form an open loose end. A first roller rotates the battery cell core and a sheet opener engages the open loose end to unroll a laminate, which includes a cathode layer, an anode layer, and a polymer separator layer sandwiched therebetween. A pair of second rollers receive, grip and selectively drive movement of the laminate. A cathode breaker applies breaking force to the cathode layer to produce broken cathode layer pieces, which are then collected. An anode breaker then grasps and vibrates the laminate to produce broken anode layer pieces, which are also collected. Finally, a polymer separator layer cutter selectively cuts the polymer separator layer to produce cut polymer separator layer pieces, which are collected.

摘要： A system and method for separating battery components provides for the separation of batteries into their individual layers of anodes, cathodes, first polymer separator layers, and second polymer separator layers. A battery casing of a battery is cut to uncover a battery cell core, which is then washed to remove an electrolyte therefrom. An outer wrapping layer of the washed battery cell core is cut to form an open loose end, and the open loose end is engaged by first and second rollers to unroll a laminate therefrom. The laminate includes a cathode layer, an anode layer, a first polymer separator layer, and a second polymer separator layer. The laminate is then separated into the cathode layer, the anode layer, the first polymer separator layer, and the second polymer separator layer with the first roller, the second roller, a third roller, and a fourth roller. Each layer is then collected.
