Problems solved by technology

Not only the cost is high, but also the production efficiency is low, making it difficult to realize continuous and mechanized production
The integration of the stack is also difficult to achieve fully mechanized integrated assembly
As a result, the cost of flow battery stacks has been high, and the advantages compared with lithium batteries cannot be brought into play, which seriously hinders its commercialization and industrialization.
At the same time, the above-mentioned rubber sealing gasket will also age and lose its sealing function with the increase of operating time, and the maintenance of the stack will increase the cost input

Embodiment

[0025] Place the ion-conducting membrane in the strip-shaped step of the No. 1 electrode frame, which is surrounded by the through hole in the middle and the bottom edge of the groove. Laser welding is used to weld the ion-conducting membrane and the strip-shaped steps together. This constitutes a frame-membrane integrated structure ( figure 1 ). This welding can prevent the active materials in the positive and negative electrodes inside the battery from contacting each other, causing a decrease in the coulombic efficiency of the battery.

[0026] Place the bipolar plate in the strip-shaped step of the No. 2 electrode frame, which is surrounded by the through hole in the middle and the bottom edge of the groove. Laser welding is used to weld the bipolar plate and the strip steps together. This constitutes a frame-plate integrated structure ( figure 2 ). This welding can also prevent the active materials in the positive and negative electrodes inside the battery from cont...

Abstract

The invention relates to an electrode frame of a liquid flow battery, an application thereof, and a liquid flow battery. It is a plate-like structure, with a groove in the middle of one side or a pair of symmetrical grooves in the middle of both sides of the plate-like structure, and a middle through hole in the middle of the bottom of the groove. With this structure, the electrode frame can form an integrated structure with the ion-conducting membrane or bipolar plate, and the integrated structure can be assembled into a stack by welding or bonding, which simplifies the process of stack integration and can realize fully mechanized production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a liquid flow battery structure, in particular to an electrode frame structure of a liquid flow battery and an electric stack formed therefrom. Background technique [0002] The development and utilization of renewable energy is an important choice for developing strategic emerging industries and promoting the transformation of economic development mode. The large-scale development and utilization of renewable energy will significantly reduce the consumption of fossil energy resources for economic development, reduce the damage to the environment, and gradually transform my country's development model that relies heavily on resource consumption into a scientific development model that consumes less resources and lowers environmental pollution. At the same time, renewable energy is a fast-growing strategic emerging industry. The development of renewable energy plays a significant role in stimulating the development of high-end e...
