[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium-ion power batteries, and in particular to a high-safety lithium power battery equipped with a CID and a built-in PTC. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries currently dominate the energy vehicle battery market. Amidst the fierce competition in the new energy battery market, high-performance cylindrical lithium-ion batteries have emerged as a clear winner. Their environmental friendliness, long lifespan, high energy density, and low cost have earned them widespread recognition. Furthermore, battery safety has become a key consideration for manufacturers.

[0003] Safety issues with lithium-ion batteries are generally caused by both internal and human factors, including leakage, spontaneous combustion, and even explosion. Impurities, moisture, and other process defects within the battery can cause defects, resulting in a short circuit and continuous heat release. If heat cannot be stopped or dissipated, the battery may spontaneously combust or explode. Excessive charging and discharging, as well as severe impacts and other human factors, can cause abnormal currents within the battery. These high currents increase the battery temperature and internal pressure, leading to bulging, deformation, and even explosion.

[0004] Therefore, how to process lithium-ion power batteries is a technical problem that those skilled in the art currently need to solve. Summary of the Invention

[0018] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] like Figure 1-2As shown, the present invention proposes a high-safety lithium-powered battery equipped with a CID and a built-in PTC, comprising a battery body 1 consisting of a shell 11, a winding core 12, a positive electrode component 13 and a negative electrode component 14. The positive electrode component 13 and the negative electrode component 14 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the shell 11 and form a conductive path. The positive electrode component 13 includes a positive bus bar 131 arranged inside the shell 11. Above the positive bus bar 131 are arranged in sequence a positive lower top plate 132, a positive upper support plate 133 and a positive plastic separator 135. Among them, a CID component 134 is installed on the positive upper support plate 133, and a positive column 137 and an explosion-proof valve 138 are installed on the positive upper cover plate 136.

[0021] The negative electrode component 14 includes a negative busbar 141 disposed within the housing 11. Below the negative busbar 141 are sequentially arranged a negative lower conductive sheet 142, a PTC sheet 143, a negative upper conductive sheet 144, a negative plastic separator 145, and a negative upper cover 146. A negative electrode post 147 is mounted on the negative upper cover 146.

[0022] In this embodiment, the PTC sheet 143 is a thermosensitive polymer material with low resistance and excellent conductivity. It is made of nickel-plated copper foil welded on both sides and compacted to form a thin sheet with a thickness between 0.1 and 3 mm. The PTC sheet 143 designed in this invention has a withstand voltage of 4-5V and a maximum current of 200A. Abnormal temperature changes within the battery body 1 are the key to the activation of the PTC sheet 143.

[0023] In this embodiment, CID 134 functions as a circuit breaker under normal circumstances. When subjected to high internal pressure within the battery body 1, it acts as a current interrupter, reducing the possibility of spontaneous combustion and explosion. The present invention utilizes PTC sheet 143 in conjunction with CID 134 to protect the battery body 1, significantly improving the safety of the battery body 1.

[0024] The operating principle of a high-safety lithium-ion power battery equipped with a CID and a built-in PTC according to Example 1 is as follows: When the battery body 1 is operating normally, the maximum current does not exceed 80A. At this time, the resistance of the PTC sheet 143 is extremely low, between 0.1-0.5mΩ. The low power consumption does not affect the normal use of the battery body 1. If the current increases abnormally to an operating current of 100A-160A, the PTC sheet 143 will activate, rapidly heating to a temperature within the range of 90-120°C. Its resistance also increases sharply, reducing the current in the circuit by more than ten times, thereby effectively protecting the battery body 1. After the battery circuit fault is eliminated, the PTC sheet 143 quickly cools down and returns to a low resistance level (approximately 0.3-0.5mΩ), allowing the battery body to be used again.

[0025] CID 134 serves as a second line of defense for battery body 1, with a set flipping pressure of 5-15 kg. If the battery body 1 fault persists and internal pressure continues to rise to within the 5-15 kg range, CID 134 will automatically flip upward and disconnect from the center, severing contact with the busbar. This disconnects the battery body 1, and internal reactions cease. Furthermore, disconnecting CID 134 releases internal pressure, preventing further danger. The bursting pressure of CID 134 is lower than that of explosion-proof valve 138, so it explodes before explosion-proof valve 138, providing dual protection.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, based on the first embodiment, this embodiment further includes: the winding core 12 is arranged inside the shell 11, and the two ends of the winding core 12 are respectively connected to the positive bus bar 131 and the negative bus bar 141. A hole is provided at the center of the positive upper cover plate 136, and the positive pole column 137 is provided in the hole, and a positive pole sealing ring for insulation is provided in the positive pole column 137. The bottom end of the positive pole column 137 passes through the positive pole plastic separator 135 and is connected to the positive pole upper support plate 133. The side of the hole is provided with a slot and a through hole located on the positive upper cover plate 136. The slot is located directly above the CID component 134, and the explosion-proof valve 138 is provided in the through hole.

[0028] In this embodiment, the positive electrode upper cover plate 136 and the positive electrode upper support plate 133 are insulated by a positive electrode plastic separator 135. At the same time, the positive electrode plastic separator 135 extends downward to block the contact between the positive electrode upper support plate 133 and the positive electrode lower top plate 132 and the housing 11.

[0029] Example 3

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, based on the above-mentioned first or second embodiment, this embodiment further includes: a connection hole is opened at the center of the negative electrode upper cover plate 146, and a negative electrode column 147 is disposed in the connection hole. The top of the negative electrode column 147 passes through the negative electrode plastic separator 145 and contacts the negative electrode upper conductive sheet 144, forming a conductive path. A negative electrode sealing ring is disposed in the connection hole for insulation.

[0031] In this embodiment, the negative electrode upper conductive sheet 144 and the negative electrode upper cover plate 146 are insulated by a negative electrode plastic separator 145, and the negative electrode plastic separator 145 extends upward for a circle, thereby preventing the negative electrode upper conductive sheet 144, the negative electrode lower conductive sheet 142 and the peripheral wall of the PTC sheet 143 from contacting the inner wall of the shell 11.

[0032] The above specific embodiments are only several preferred embodiments of the present invention. Based on the technical solutions of the present invention and the relevant inspirations of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
