The utility model discloses a battery case and battery, the battery case is used for accommodating a laminated
cell, two opposite outermost
layers of the laminated
cell are both single-sided pole pieces, the battery case comprises a first half shell and a second half shell which are in
butt joint with each other, the first half shell and the second half shell are in
butt joint to form an accommodating cavity for accommodating the laminated
cell, and the first half shell and the second half shell are in
butt joint with each other. Each of the first half shell and the second half shell comprises a side wall opposite to the single-sided
pole piece, and at least one side wall is provided with a pressing part for pressing the side edge of the single-sided
pole piece. According to the battery shell disclosed by the utility model, the side edge of the single-sided
pole piece is correspondingly pressed through the pressing part arranged on the side wall of the first half shell and / or the side wall of the second half shell so as to tightly bind the laminated
battery cell, so that the single-sided pole piece of the laminated
battery cell can be kept in a flat state, and the periphery of the single-sided pole piece is tightly attached; therefore,
lithium precipitation caused by warping of the single-sided pole piece in the later cycle process is prevented, and the cycle performance of the
battery cell is improved.
