Claim:
A coating device comprising: a bar which coats a coating liquid on a strip-shaped body conveyed in a given direction, an upstream side dam-shaped member disposed at an upstream side of the bar so as to face the bar, the coating device carrying out coating by supplying the coating liquid from between the upstream side dam-shaped member and the bar, means for setting a flow rate of the coating liquid passing through a gap between the bar and the upstream side dam-shaped member to be 5 mm/sec or more, and a downstream side dam-shaped member disposed at a downstream side of the bar so as to face the bar, wherein the flow rate of the coating liquid both at a primary side clearance which is the gap between the bar and the upstream side dam-shaped member, and at a secondary side clearance which is a gap between the bar and the downstream side dam-shaped member, is set to be 5 mm/sec or more.
