When the electrode assembly is placed in a shell for packaging, there is a risk that the ends of some diaphragms will enter the shell packaging area, which may lead to failure of the shell packaging. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of the above situation, it is necessary to provide an electrochemical device to reduce the influence of the diaphragm on the shell packaging.
[0004] An embodiment of the present application provides an electrochemical device, including a shell and an electrode assembly. The shell includes a first shell and a second shell, and the first shell and the second shell are connected to each other to form a cavity space. The electrode assembly is arranged in the cavity space, and the electrode assembly includes a first pole piece, a second pole piece and a diaphragm arranged between the first pole piece and the second pole piece. The first pole piece, the diaphragm and the second pole piece are stacked and arranged in sequence along a first direction, and the first direction is the thickness direction of the shell.

Along the first direction, the projection of the second pole piece is located within the projection of the first pole piece, the projection of the first pole piece is located within the projection of the diaphragm, and the projection of the diaphragm is located within the projection of the cavity space. In a direction perpendicular to the first direction, the diaphragm exceeds the first pole piece, and the portion of the diaphragm that exceeds the first pole piece is surrounded by the first shell and the second shell to form a first area.
[0005] The diaphragm of the electrochemical device is arranged in the cavity space of the shell, and the part of the diaphragm that protrudes beyond the first pole piece and the second pole piece is surrounded by the first shell and the second shell to form a first area, which can prevent the diaphragm from entering the connection area between the first shell and the second shell, reduce the influence of the diaphragm on the shell packaging, and improve the yield rate of the electrochemical device.

[0060] In one embodiment, a liquid injection hole 15 is provided on the shell 10 , and the liquid injection hole 15 is used to inject electrolyte into the shell 10 after the electrode assembly 20 is encapsulated in the shell 10 .
[0061] In one embodiment, the electrochemical device 100 further includes a first output terminal 31 and a second output terminal 32, wherein the first output terminal 31 is electrically connected to the first electrode terminal 24 and exposed from the shell 10, and the second output terminal 32 is electrically connected to the second electrode terminal 25 and exposed from the shell 10, and the first output terminal 31 and the second output terminal 32 are used to electrically connect to an external device so that the electrochemical device 100 can be charged and discharged.

As an example, the electrochemical device 100 is a hard shell battery, and the housing 10 includes a steel shell as an example for further description.
[0063] In one embodiment, the first output terminal 31 is located on the outer surface of the housing 10 and is electrically connected to the housing 10, and the first electrode terminal 24 is electrically connected to the housing 10 and thus electrically connected to the first output terminal 31. In one embodiment, the first output terminal 31 is welded to the outer surface of the housing 10. In one embodiment, the first electrode terminal 24 is welded to the inner surface of the housing 10. In one embodiment, the first output terminal 31 is a nickel sheet.
[0064] In one embodiment, part of the second output terminal 32 is located inside the housing 10 and connected to the second electrode terminal 25, and part of the second output terminal 32 is located outside the housing 10. The part of the second output terminal 32 located outside the housing 10 is used to connect an external device. The electrochemical device 100 also includes a second seal (not shown), which connects the second output terminal 32 and the housing 10. The second seal can prevent the second output terminal 32 from contacting the housing 10, reducing the risk of short circuit caused by the electrical connection between the second output terminal 32 and the housing 10. In one embodiment, the second output terminal 32 is a pole.
[0065] Please combine Figure 2 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, part of the first output terminal 31 is located inside the housing 10 and connected to the first electrode terminal 24, and part of the first output terminal 31 is located outside the housing 10. The first output terminal 31 located outside the housing 10 is used to connect an external device. The electrochemical device 100 further includes a first seal (not shown), which connects the first output terminal 31 and the housing 10. The first seal can prevent the first output terminal 31 from contacting the housing 10, thereby reducing the risk of short circuit caused by the electrical connection between the first output terminal 31 and the housing 10. In one embodiment, the first output terminal 31 is a pole.
[0066] As an example, the following further describes the first output terminal 31 as a nickel sheet and the second output terminal 32 as a pole.
[0067] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, one of the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22 is a positive electrode, and the other is a negative electrode. As an example, the first electrode 21 is a negative electrode, and the second electrode 22 is a positive electrode for further description.
[0068] In one embodiment, the first pole piece 21 includes a first current collector and a first active material layer, and the first active material layer is disposed on the surface of the first current collector. Optionally, the first current collector is made of copper foil. Optionally, the first active material layer is made of graphite.
[0069] In one embodiment, the second electrode 22 includes a second current collector and a second active material layer, and the second active material layer is disposed on the surface of the second current collector. Optionally, the second current collector is made of aluminum foil. Optionally, the second active material layer is made of lithium cobalt oxide.
[0070] The shell 10 includes a first shell 11 and a second shell 12 . The first shell 11 and the second shell 12 are arranged opposite to each other along a first direction X. The first shell 11 and the second shell 12 are connected to each other to form a cavity space 13 . The electrode assembly 20 is arranged in the cavity space 13 .
[0071] In one embodiment, there are multiple first pole pieces 21, diaphragms 23 and second pole pieces 22, a diaphragm 23 is provided between any adjacent first pole pieces 21 and second pole pieces 22, and all first pole pieces 21, diaphragms 23 and second pole pieces 22 are stacked.
[0072] In one embodiment, along the first direction X, the outermost pole piece is the first pole piece 21 , and the first current collector of the outermost first pole piece 21 contacts the inner surface of the connection housing 10 .
[0073] In one embodiment, the first electrode terminal 24 connects all the first electrode sheets 21 . In one embodiment, the second electrode terminal 25 connects all the second electrode sheets 22 .
[0074] Along the first direction X, the projection of the second pole piece 22 is located within the projection of the first pole piece 21 , which can reduce the risk of lithium deposition.
[0075] Along the first direction X, the projection of the first pole piece 21 is located within the projection of the diaphragm 23, and along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the diaphragm 23 is beyond the first pole piece 21, which can reduce the risk of short circuit between the first pole piece 21 and the adjacent second pole piece 22. In the present application, the direction perpendicular to the first direction X refers to all directions on the plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the housing 10.
[0076] Along the first direction X, the projection of the diaphragm 23 is located within the projection of the cavity space 13. Along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the portion of the multilayer diaphragm 23 that exceeds the first pole piece 21 is surrounded by the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 to form a first region 40. The presence of the first region 40 can reduce the risk of the diaphragm 23 entering the connection region 14 of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, reduce the impact of the diaphragm 23 on the packaging of the shell 10, and improve the yield rate of the electrochemical device 100. In the present application, the connection region 14 of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 refers to the region where the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 contact each other. When the shell 10 is packaged, the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 are usually sealed and connected in the connection region 14 of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12. If part of the diaphragm 23 enters the sealed connection region of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, it may cause the sealing failure of the shell 10, thereby scrapping the electrochemical device 100.
[0077] In one embodiment, the first region 40 includes a first portion 41 and a second portion 42 . Along the first direction X, a projection of the first portion 41 is located inside a projection of the diaphragm 23 , and a projection of the second portion 42 is located outside the projection of the diaphragm 23 .
[0078] In one embodiment, taking the electrode assembly 20 as an object, along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the first portion 41 is formed by the end of the multilayer diaphragm 23 being recessed in a direction close to the first pole piece 21 and the second pole piece 22. In one embodiment, the first portion 41 is formed by shaping a portion of the diaphragm 23. Specifically, after all the first pole pieces 21, the diaphragms 23 and the second pole pieces 22 are stacked, a shaping process is used to form a recessed notch at the end of a portion of the diaphragm 23 to form the first portion 41. In one embodiment, the shaping process for the diaphragm 23 includes but is not limited to hot stamping, laser cutting, and mechanical cutting.
[0079] In one embodiment, the second part 42 is formed at the chamfered portion of the first shell 11 and / or the second shell 12. Along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, one side of the second part 42 is the first part 41, and the other side of the second part 42 is the connection area 14 between the first shell 11 and the second shell 12.
[0080] In one embodiment, along the first direction X, the length of the first region 40 is L1 (i.e., the maximum length of the first region in the first direction), and L1>0. Along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the width of the first region 40 is W1 (i.e., the maximum width of the first region in the direction perpendicular to the first direction), and W1>0.
[0081] In one embodiment, along the first direction X, the maximum width of the first region 40 is located at the connection region 14 of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, which can further reduce the risk of the diaphragm 23 entering the connection region 14. In addition, along the first direction X, starting from the connection region 14 of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, the width of the first region 40 gradually decreases in the direction away from the connection region 14 until it becomes zero, so that the end of part of the diaphragm 23 can abut against the first shell 11 and / or the second shell 12, reducing the risk of relative displacement between the electrode assembly 20 and the shell 10, and improving the anti-seismic performance of the electrochemical device 100.
[0082] In one embodiment, along the first direction X, the length of the cavity space 13 is H, H ≥ 2*L1, so that more diaphragms 23 can be abutted against the first shell 11 and / or the second shell 12, reducing the risk of relative displacement between the electrode assembly 20 and the shell 10, and improving the anti-seismic performance of the electrochemical device 100. In one embodiment, H / 3 ≤ L1 ≤ H / 2. Optionally, L1 = H / 3.
[0083] In one embodiment, along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the minimum distance D between the first portion 41 and the first pole piece 21 is D, and D ≥ 0.45 mm, so that the portion of the diaphragm 23 extending beyond the first pole piece 21 can be isolated, thereby reducing the risk of short circuit between the first pole piece 21 and the adjacent second pole piece 22. In one embodiment, the minimum distance D between the first portion 41 and the first pole piece 21 is a safe length of the diaphragm 23 extending beyond the first pole piece 21. Optionally, the value of D is one of 0.45 mm, 0.5 mm, and 0.55 mm.
[0084] In one embodiment, along a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the maximum length of the diaphragm 23 extending beyond the first pole piece 21 is W, W>D, W>2*W1, which can reduce the influence of the first region 40 on the safe length of the diaphragm 23 extending beyond the first pole piece 21.
[0085] In one embodiment, the second shell 12 has a second groove 121, and the first shell 11 covers the second shell 12, so that the second groove 121 forms a cavity space 13. Along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the projection of the cavity space 13 and the first area 40 is located within the projection of the second shell 12, and the end of part of the diaphragm 23 abuts against the second shell 12. In one embodiment, the portion of the second shell 12 between the cavity space 13 and the connection area 14 has a second chamfer 122, and along the first direction X, the second portion 42 is located between the second chamfer 122 and the first shell 11. In one embodiment, the second chamfer 122 is a rounded corner, which can reduce the impact of the second chamfer 122 on the diaphragm 23 and reduce the risk of the second chamfer 122 puncturing the diaphragm 23.
[0086] like Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the first shell 11 has a first groove 111, the second shell 12 has a second groove 121, and the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 are buckled together to form a cavity space 13. Along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, a portion of the cavity space 13 is projected within the projection of the first shell 11, and another portion is projected within the projection of the second shell 12, and a portion of the first area 40 is projected within the projection of the first shell 11, and another portion is projected within the projection of the second shell 12. In one embodiment, the first shell 11 has a first chamfer 112 at a location between the first groove 111 and the connection area 14, and the second shell 12 has a second chamfer 122 at a location between the second groove 121 and the connection area 14. Along the first direction X, the second portion 42 is located between the first chamfer 112 and the second chamfer 122.
[0087] In one embodiment, the first chamfer 112 is a rounded corner, which can reduce the impact of the first chamfer 112 on the diaphragm 23 and reduce the risk of the first chamfer 112 puncturing the diaphragm 23. In one embodiment, the second chamfer 122 is a rounded corner, which can reduce the impact of the second chamfer 122 on the diaphragm 23 and reduce the risk of the second chamfer 122 puncturing the diaphragm 23.
[0088] As an example, the following further describes the example in which the first shell 11 covers the second shell 12 and the second groove 121 forms the cavity space 13 .
[0089] Please continue reading Figure 3 In one embodiment, along a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the diaphragm 23 abutting against the second shell 12 is in a squeezed and deformed state, which can further improve the stability of the electrode assembly 20 connected to the shell 10, reduce the risk of displacement of the electrode assembly 20 relative to the shell 10, and improve the seismic resistance of the electrochemical device 100.
[0090] In one embodiment, along the first direction X, the portions of the diaphragm 23 that are squeezed and deformed by the second shell 12 are bent toward the second portion 42, and along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the multiple diaphragms 23 in the bending area are stacked in sequence, which can reduce the risk of the ends of the first pole piece 21 and the second pole piece 22 puncturing part of the diaphragm 23 and then contacting the shell 10 to cause a short circuit, thereby improving the safety performance of the electrochemical device 100.
[0091] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in one embodiment, the electrochemical device 100 further includes an adhesive 50, one end of the adhesive 50 is connected to one end of the electrode assembly 20 along the first direction X, and the other end of the adhesive 50 is connected to the other end of the electrode assembly 20 along the first direction X. The adhesive 50 can improve the connection tightness of the electrode assembly 20 along the first direction X, reduce the risk of relative displacement between the first pole piece 21, the diaphragm 23 and the second pole piece 22, improve the seismic resistance of the electrode assembly 20, and improve the seismic resistance of the electrochemical device 100. Optionally, the adhesive 50 is an insulating tape.
[0092] In one embodiment, there are multiple adhesives 50, which are spaced apart from each other along the circumference of the electrode assembly 20, and can fasten the electrode assembly 20 at multiple locations, further improving the seismic resistance of the electrode assembly 20 and the seismic resistance of the electrochemical device 100.
[0093] In one embodiment, along a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the end of the diaphragm 23 abuts against the adhesive 50 to prevent the adhesive 50 from loosening, thereby reducing the risk of relative displacement between the first pole piece 21, the diaphragm 23 and the second pole piece 22.
[0094] Please combine Figure 3 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, along the first direction X, the projection of the adhesive 50 is located within the projection of the cavity space 13. The adhesive 50, the first shell 11, and the second shell 12 are surrounded to form a second area 60, wherein the second area 60 is located within the first area 40, which can reduce the risk of the adhesive 50 entering the connection area 14, reduce the impact of the adhesive 50 on the packaging of the shell 10, and improve the yield rate of the electrochemical device 100.
[0095] In one embodiment, the second region 60 includes a third portion 61 and a fourth portion 62, wherein the third portion 61 constitutes part of the first portion 41, and the fourth portion 62 is the same as the second portion 42. Along the first direction X, the projection of the third portion 61 is located within the projection of the adhesive 50, and the projection of the fourth portion 62 is located outside the projection of the adhesive 50.
[0096] In one embodiment, after all the first electrode sheets 21, diaphragms 23, and second electrode sheets 22 are stacked, a shaping process is used to form a concave notch at the end of part of the diaphragm 23. After the electrode assembly 20 is placed in the shell 10, the concave notch formed at the end of the diaphragm 23 forms a first part 41. After the adhesive 50 is attached to the electrode assembly 20, a third part 61 is formed in the first part 41.
[0097] The fourth portion 62 is the same as the second portion 42 and will not be described again herein.
[0098] In one embodiment, along the first direction X, the length of the second region 60 is L2, where L2>0. Along a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the width of the second region 60 is W2, where W2>0.
[0099] In one embodiment, along the first direction X, the maximum width of the second region 60 is located at the connection region 14 of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, which can further reduce the risk of the diaphragm 23 and / or the adhesive member 50 entering the connection region 14. In addition, along the first direction X, starting from the connection region 14 of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, the width of the second region 60 gradually decreases in the direction away from the connection region 14 until it becomes zero, so that the end of part of the adhesive member 50 can abut against the second shell 12, reduce the risk of relative displacement between the electrode assembly 20 and the shell 10, and improve the anti-seismic performance of the electrochemical device 100.
[0100] In one embodiment, L2≤H / 2, so that more adhesives 50 can be in contact with the second housing 12, reducing the risk of relative displacement between the electrode assembly 20 and the housing 10, and improving the anti-seismic performance of the electrochemical device 100. In one embodiment, H / 3≤L2≤H / 2. Optionally, L2=H / 3.
[0101] In one embodiment, along a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, the diaphragm 23 abutting against the adhesive 50 is in a state of being squeezed and deformed, which can further improve the connection stability of the first pole piece 21, the diaphragm 23 and the second pole piece 22, reduce the risk of relative displacement of the first pole piece 21, the diaphragm 23 and the second pole piece 22, improve the seismic resistance of the electrode assembly 20, and improve the seismic resistance of the electrochemical device 100.
[0102] In one embodiment, along the first direction X, the portions of the diaphragm 23 that are squeezed and deformed by the adhesive 50 are bent toward the fourth portion 62, and the multiple diaphragms 23 in the bending area are stacked in sequence along the direction perpendicular to the first direction X, which can reduce the risk of the ends of the first pole piece 21 and the second pole piece 22 puncturing part of the diaphragm 23 and the adhesive 50 and then contacting the shell 10 to cause a short circuit, thereby improving the safety performance of the electrochemical device 100.
[0103] In summary, the diaphragm 23 of the electrochemical device 100 of the present application is arranged in the cavity space 13 of the shell 10, and the portion of the diaphragm 23 that extends beyond the first pole piece 21 and the second pole piece 22 is surrounded by the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 to form a first area 40, which can prevent the diaphragm 23 from entering the connection area 14 of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, reduce the impact of the diaphragm 23 on the packaging of the shell 10, and improve the yield rate of the electrochemical device 100.

[0105] In one embodiment, the power-consuming device 200 includes but is not limited to a mobile phone, a computer, a tablet computer, a digital camera, a drone, and a new energy vehicle.
[0106] The electrical equipment 200 of the present application adopts the electrochemical device 100 described in any of the above embodiments, which can reduce the impact of the electrochemical device 100 on the electrical equipment 200 due to quality problems.
[0107] In addition, those skilled in the art may also make other changes within the spirit of the present application. Of course, these changes made according to the spirit of the present application should be included in the scope disclosed in the present application.
