The invention provides an improved explosion-proof valve, a battery shell and a
battery pack aiming at the problems that an existing explosion-proof valve is easy to crack in charge-
discharge circulation and cannot be normally opened under extreme conditions. Annular and directional nicks are arranged on the valve plate of the anti-explosion valve to form a weak area, and the
mechanical property is optimized and the structural strength and the pressure relief sensitivity are balanced by accurately controlling the nick size (a = c = b / 2, and d: c = (0.25-0.45)). The nick
layout comprises transverse nicks, longitudinal nicks and oblique nicks, a multi-dimensional stress release network can be formed through combination, the response speed is increased, and the anti-fatigue performance is improved. The battery shell comprises the anti-explosion valve and is installed on a pressure relief hole in the bottom wall of the shell,
electric arc discharge is avoided, and the space
utilization rate and the overall protection performance are improved. The
battery pack is composed of a battery shell, a pole group and an end cover, the explosion-proof valve is installed at the bottom, high-temperature gas is prevented from impacting electronic elements, the risk of secondary damage is reduced, meanwhile, a pressure relief channel is kept unblocked through gravity, and the safety of a
battery system is remarkably improved.
