Problems solved by technology

Also, when repeated charging and discharging causes the electrode to swell, the outer surface of the protective case is deformed, so there is severe swelling that causes degradation of the safety performance of the battery

Embodiment 1

[0046] The jelly-like cylinder of the comparative example is inserted into a prism-shaped shell with a concave portion on the surface of a width of 34 mm, a height of 48 mm, and a thickness of 10 mm. shaped aluminum plate, such as Figure 5 shown. Electrolyte is injected into the jelly-like cylinder, and the seam between the edge of the case and the lid is laser welded to create a prismatic lithium-ion battery.

[0047] Just as in the comparative example, the three prismatic lithium-ion batteries manufactured were charged and discharged, and the measurements of the external dimensions of the batteries were recorded in Table 1. After the impedance was measured, the discharge capacity of each cycle was recorded and expressed as exist Figure 14 middle.

[0048] The battery external dimension of Example 1 changed less than the prismatic Li-ion battery of Comparative Example using a conventional case, and continued to show the same results even when the number of cycles was fur...

Embodiment 2

[0054] As in the comparative example, the jelly-like cylinder was inserted into a prismatic casing with a concave portion on the surface of a width of 34 mm, a height of 48 mm, and a thickness of 10 mm. into, such as Figure 8 shown. Electrolyte is then added, and the seam between the edge of the case and the lid is laser welded to create the prismatic lithium-ion battery.

[0055] As in Comparative Example, charge and discharge experiments were performed on the manufactured prismatic lithium ion battery and the measured external dimensions of the battery were recorded. The change in external dimensions of the battery of Example 2 was smaller than that of the prismatic lithium ion battery of Comparative Example using a conventional case, and like Example 1, continued to show the same results even when the number of cycles was further increased.

[0056] The results of the impedance measurement indicated that the battery conductivity of Example 2 was better than the prismatic...

Embodiment 3

[0059] Like the comparative example, the jelly-like cylinder was inserted into a prismatic shell with a concave portion on the surface of a width of 34 mm, a height of 48 mm, and a thickness of 10 mm. ,Such as Figure 11 shown. Electrolyte is then added, and the seam between the edge of the case and the lid is laser welded to create the prismatic lithium-ion battery.

[0060] As in Comparative Example, charge and discharge experiments were performed on the manufactured prismatic lithium ion battery and the measured external dimensions of the battery were recorded. The change in the external dimensions of the battery of Example 3 was smaller than that of the prismatic lithium ion battery of Comparative Example using a conventional case, and like Example 1, continued to show the same results even when the number of cycles was further increased.

[0061] The results of the impedance measurement showed that the battery conductivity of Example 3 was better than the prismatic Li-i...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a prismatic lithium ion battery, more particularly to a prismatic lithium ion battery, wherein jelly roll of a lithium ion battery is mounted and electrolyte is infused in a prismatic can. The present invention provides a prismatic lithium ion battery in which improved safety is provided to a battery itself as well as its battery pack by mounting a jelly roll into a prismatic can with surfaces with recessed portions so that battery volume change due to the electrode expansion and pressure rise inside the battery is restrained. Furthermore, a prismatic lithium ion battery of the present invention improves the cycle life characteristics of a battery by alleviating the jelly roll deformation caused by the expansion and contraction of a jelly roll of a lithium ion battery due to continuous charging and discharging. Accordingly, lithium metal can be uniformly and stably adsorbed in and detached from a jelly roll.

Description

[0001] This application is based on Application No. 98-58175 filed with the Korean Industrial Property Office on December 24, 1998, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0002] The invention relates to a prismatic lithium-ion battery, in particular to a prismatic lithium-ion battery in which a colloidal cylindrical lithium-ion battery is fixed in a prismatic shell and electrolyte is injected into the prismatic shell. Background technique [0003] Conventional cylindrical lithium ion batteries are changing to rectangular shapes used in smaller and thinner portable electronic devices, while batteries used in the portable electronic devices are changing from nickel metal hydride batteries to lithium ion batteries. [0004] However, when comparing prismatic Li-ion batteries to cylindrical Li-ion batteries, prismatic battery components have combined charge and discharge cycling issues that can cause damage to themselves and the electronic de...
