Problems solved by technology

[0003] For example, the Chinese Utility Model Patent Application (Application No.: 200920112517.4) discloses a bipolar lead-acid battery, including a casing, a positive terminal piece and a negative terminal piece drawn from the casing, and a sealed battery cover with a one-way valve. On the two side walls of the inner cavity of the housing, there are respectively provided positive and negative terminal plates parallel to each other, a layer of positive active material layer is provided on the side of the positive terminal plate close to the negative terminal plate, and a positive electrode active material layer is provided on the negative terminal plate. A layer of negative active material layer is arranged on the side of the plate close to the positive pole plate, and a plurality of bipolar plates parallel to the positive and negative pole plates are fixed between the positive and negative pole plates. The bipolar plate is made of carbon fiber substrate , the positive active material layer and the negative active material layer located on both sides of the substrate, the positive and negative active material layers are arranged in sequence, the bipolar plate divides the inner cavity of the shell into multiple compartments, and a diaphragm is arranged in the compartment, but the battery is charging. Exhaust is required during the process. In view of the small width of the compartments, it is difficult to install one-to-one check valves. Therefore, the multiple compartments of the battery are connected to one air chamber, and are exhausted through a one-way valve on the air chamber. Gas, that is, the upper parts of multiple compartments need to be connected, and it is difficult to individually seal each compartment. This structure is easy to cause electrolyte to cross between compartments, resulting in micro-short circuit, self-discharge, etc.
[0004] In view of the above problems, the Chinese invention patent application (application number: 03133542.X) discloses a bipolar storage battery, in which several intermediate single cells are fixed between the left side single cells and the right side single cells. The outer side of the single battery on the left side and the single battery on the right side are respectively fixed with a pressure plate, and a through hole is opened on the pressure plate on one side, and a safety valve is fixed in the through hole on the pressure plate, and the air chamber passes through the through hole are connected to each other, and the annular ring made of hydrophobic material is fixed in the through hole on the bipolar substrate. The compartments in this battery are still not separated from the air chambers, and are directly connected, and the compartments are still not individually sealed, and A one-way valve is used for exhaust, and after several compartments are connected through through holes, a hydrophobic ring is installed in the through holes to prevent the electrolyte from crossing each other. However, the hydrophobic ring is an external component, which has service life problems and is difficult to guarantee Absolutely block the electrolyte crossover, which also leads to the low specific energy of the battery, that is, the electrode material that participates in the electrode reaction emits low electric energy per unit mass. At the same time, the shell of the battery is preformed, and then the single battery is inserted into the shell Therefore, it is necessary to wrap the stacked cells in advance with adhesive tape or use a fixed frame for positioning, resulting in a larger specific volume of the battery, that is, a larger volume occupied by the battery per unit mass

Embodiment 1

[0036] Such as figure 1 As shown, a bipolar lead-acid battery includes a casing 1 and a top cover 2 , the casing 1 is rectangular and has an upper opening, and reinforcing ribs 17 are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the casing 1 . Such as figure 2 , image 3 As shown, a plurality of bipolar plates 6 are fixedly connected in the housing 1, and the plurality of bipolar plates 6 are arranged in parallel, and the inner cavity of the housing 1 is divided into several independent sealed compartments 11 by the plurality of bipolar plates 6. 11 is flat, and several compartments 11 are arranged in sequence along the width direction of the casing 1, and a battery cell 3 is fixedly arranged in each compartment 11, and each battery cell 3 includes a separator 31, a negative electrode plate 32 and The positive plate 33 and the negative plate 32 are located on one side of the separator 31, and the positive plate 33 is located on the other side of the separator 31. The separator 3...

Embodiment 2

[0040] The structure of this bipolar lead-acid battery is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1, the difference is that the top cover 2 includes several air chamber cavities 22, and each air chamber cavity 22 is located above the cover plate 21 and is independent of each other. The inner cavity of the cavity 22 is an air chamber 24, and several air chamber cavities 22 and cover plate 21 are integrally structured to ensure the airtightness of the air chamber 24. Of course, the top cover 2 can also be designed into several lengths in the actual processing process. Strip-shaped air chamber cavity 22, the inner cavity of the air chamber cavity 22 is divided into several air chambers 24 along the length direction, that is, an exhaust chamber 24 is formed in each air chamber cavity 22, which can also ensure that the air chamber 24 of tightness.
