It is described a winding apparatus for wrapping a material around a core of flat shape that rotates around a rotation axis rotating in its turn with a circular trajectory, controlling the laws of motion both of the core rotation around its axis and of the circular trajectory of its rotation axis, motor driven independently by means of electric cams, such as to cancel the variations of position and speed of the material at the entrance of the core The winding apparatus is used for producing electric energy accumulating devices.

The disclosure provides a strap pulling device, the strap pulling device comprises a cutter mechanism, a first strap pulling mechanism and a second strap pulling mechanism. The first strap pulling mechanism and the second strap pulling mechanism are configured to alternately clamp a strap at a pulling position located upstream of a cutting position and pull the strap to a transfer position located downstream the cutting position. When the first strap pulling mechanism pulls the clamped strap to the transfer position, the second strap pulling mechanism clamps the strap at the pulling position, the cutter mechanism cuts the strap at the cutting position to acquire a strap segment. When the second strap pulling mechanism pulls the clamped strap to the transfer position, the first strap pulling mechanism clamps the strap at the pulling position, the cutter mechanism cuts the strap at the cutting position to acquire a strap segment.

A method is provided for producing an electrode stack with flat electrode elements, including: a) providing a first electrode element; b) inserting the first electrode element into an intermediate space formed by stacking fingers of a stacking wheel which rotates about a rotation axis; c) transporting the first electrode element with the stacking wheel; d) removing the first electrode element from the intermediate space; e) arranging the first electrode element in a stacking position; f) providing a second electrode element; g) inserting the second electrode element into a further intermediate space different from the intermediate space and formed by stacking fingers of the stacking wheel; h) removing the second electrode element from the further intermediate space; and i) arranging the second electrode element in the stacking position and producing the electrode stack. The first electrode element is moved to a lateral target position by a movable alignment element.

A bobbin installation unit includes a bobbin, a film supply unit configured to supply an electrode-connecting film to the bobbin, a transfer unit configured to transfer the electrode-connecting film installed in the film supply unit to the bobbin installation unit, an adhesive tape attaching unit installed above the bobbin installation unit and configured to attach an end portion of the electrode-connecting film drawn out to the transfer unit to the bobbin. It also includes a double-sided tape attaching unit configured to attach a double-sided tape to the electrode-connecting film wound on the bobbin, and a frame body on which the adhesive tape attaching unit and the double-sided tape attaching unit are movably installed.

An apparatus for generating a roll map of a merge-wound electrode includes a position measurement device configured to acquire coordinate value data for a longitudinal position of an electrode according to an amount of rotation of the rewinder. The apparatus includes an input device configured to input an input signal indicating a start of merge-winding or an end of merge-winding, a seam detector configured to detect a seam, a reference point detector configured to detect a plurality of reference points of the merge-wound electrode, and a roll map generator configured to generate a roll map for simulating the merge-wound electrode moving in a roll-to-roll state based on the input signal of the input device, and to display the longitudinal coordinate values of the electrode, the electrode coordinate values of the seam, and the electrode coordinate values of the plurality of reference points of the merge-wound electrode on the roll map.

A stacking apparatus includes a stacking stage, a correction mechanism, a driving mechanism, and a linear-motion mechanism. The stacking stage has a stacking surface, on which objects are to be stacked in layers. The correction mechanism moves the stacking stage in a direction parallel to the stacking surface. The driving mechanism moves the stacking stage in a direction perpendicular to the stacking surface. The linear-motion mechanism connects the stacking stage and the correction mechanism, gives freedom of movement in the direction perpendicular to the stacking surface and constrains movement in the direction parallel to the stacking surface. The driving mechanism includes a main body part that does not overlap the stacking stage when viewed in the direction perpendicular to the stacking surface, and an arm part that extends from the main body part and between the stacking stage and the correction mechanism and supports the stacking stage.
