Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of batteries, and specifically provides a cylindrical battery monomer and a battery module. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries have outstanding advantages such as high energy density, low environmental pollution, high power density, long service life, wide adaptability, and small self-discharge coefficient. They are one of the most widely used batteries in the world today and an important part of the development of new energy.

[0003] With the continuous upgrading of market demand, cylindrical batteries have developed from 18650 and 21700 to the larger and more energy-dense 4680 series cylindrical batteries. Compared with 18650 and 21700 cylindrical cells, the 4680 cylindrical battery adopts a full-ear design, which effectively shortens the current path, promotes smoother movement of electrons inside the battery, reduces the internal resistance of the cell itself, and significantly reduces Joule heat loss. In addition, cylindrical batteries are made of stainless steel, have higher mechanical strength, and can effectively absorb the pressure caused by the expansion of the negative electrode, so they are more suitable for high-silicon and high-nickel systems.

[0004] In the prior art, in order to avoid thermal runaway inside large cylindrical batteries, an explosion-proof valve is generally installed at the end of the battery cell, for example, on the negative electrode cover. When the gas production inside the battery causes the pressure to increase, the explosion-proof valve on the electrode terminal or the negative electrode cover explodes, and the gas inside the battery is released or discharged in time to prevent the battery from further explosion. However, when the battery is slowly producing gas, after the explosion-proof valve on the negative electrode cover explodes, the winding core inside the battery will erupt, and the erupted pole piece may contact with other components and produce adverse effects; in addition, when the battery is violently producing gas, the explosion-proof valve of the negative electrode cover cannot guarantee sufficient valve opening area, and rapid gas production causes the battery to explode, which has poor safety. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a battery structure that can take into account different working conditions at the same time. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to solve the above technical problem, that is, to solve the technical problem of poor safety performance caused by the adverse effects of core ejection and small valve opening area when a cylindrical battery cell is thermally runaway under different working conditions.

[0007] In the above technical scheme, by electrically connecting the first plate body to the shell and the electrode assembly respectively, and the second plate body is sealed and connected to the first plate body, the welding process of the first plate body, the second plate body and the shell is simplified, the cost of parts and assembly is reduced, and the efficiency of production and manufacturing is improved; at the same time, the first weak part and the second weak part are respectively provided on the first plate body and the second plate body, which can meet the safety requirements of the battery cell under different working conditions.

[0019] In the above technical solution, if the thickness of the first plate is set too thin, it will be detrimental to the welding of the first plate and the shell, and if it is set too thick, it will lead to poor welding with the pole ear; if the thickness of the second plate is set too thin, it will affect the deformation and thus affect the valve opening area, and if it is set too thick, it will increase the cost.

[0020] In some embodiments, the material of the first plate is the same as that of the shell, and / or the material of the first plate is the same as that of the second plate.

[0021] In the above technical solution, the material of the first plate and the shell is set to be the same; and / or the material of the first plate and the second plate is set to be the same, which can reduce the difficulty of welding between the first plate, the second plate and the shell and enhance the overall strength.

[0022] In some embodiments, the shell, the first plate and the second plate are all made of low carbon steel.

[0023] In the above technical solution, the shell, the first plate and the second plate are made of low-carbon steel, which reduces the internal resistance of the battery cell structure.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cylindrical battery cell of the embodiment of the present application includes: a shell 1, one end of which has an opening. In this embodiment, the shell 1 is a hollow structure with an opening on one side, which is used to accommodate the electrode assembly 2 and the electrolyte. The electrode assembly 2 is arranged in the accommodating cavity of the shell 1. The shell 1 includes a side wall 11 and a top wall (not shown in the figure) connected to the side wall 11.

In this embodiment, the electrode assembly 2 is a cylindrical structure, and the shell 1 is selected as a cylindrical shell 1. The shell 1 can be positively charged, negatively charged, or uncharged.

Specifically, the laser is irradiated along the inner surface 3121 of the extension 312 and the outer end face 112 of the side wall 11, and the laser radiation heats the surface to be processed. The surface heat diffuses to the inside through heat conduction, so that the surface of the workpiece melts and forms a specific molten pool, and then the extension 312 and the side wall 11 of the shell 1 are welded as a whole.

At the same time, the first plate body 3 and the second plate body 4 are interference fit, and no external equipment is required to fix the first and second plate bodies 4, which simplifies the assembly process. Optionally, the second outer peripheral surface 4211 of the second vertical portion 421 and the inner peripheral surface of the first vertical portion 311 are connected by laser welding. During welding, the laser is irradiated on the connection, and the laser partially melts and connects them together to achieve sealing and reduce the risk of electrolyte leakage from the connection.
