Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present application.

[0028] The present application embodiment provides a battery cell. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 1 An exploded view of a battery cell provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown; Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of a shell in a battery cell provided in an embodiment of the present application is illustrated; Figure 3 Indicated Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the cross section of AA; Figure 4 Indicated Figure 3A partial enlarged schematic diagram of the B area in the middle. A battery cell provided in an embodiment of the present application includes: a shell 100, an electrode assembly 600, an explosion-proof valve 300, a first protective film 400 and a first connecting member 410; the shell 100 has a receiving cavity 130; the electrode assembly 600 is arranged in the receiving cavity 130; the shell 100 includes a bottom wall 120, the bottom wall 120 has a first surface 121 facing the electrode assembly 600 and a second surface 122 away from the electrode assembly 600, the bottom wall 120 has a pressure relief port 110, and the pressure relief port 110 passes through the first surface 121 and the second surface 122 along the thickness direction X of the bottom wall 120; the explosion-proof valve 300 is connected to the hole wall of the pressure relief port 110 and covers the pressure relief port 110; the first protective film 400 is provided The first protective film 400 is in the accommodating cavity 130, and the orthographic projection of the first protective film 400 on the first surface 121 along the thickness direction X covers the pressure relief port 110; the first connecting member 410 is located between the first protective film 400 and the first surface 121 and is connected to the first protective film 400 and the first surface 121 respectively, so that the first protective film 400 seals the pressure relief port 110; wherein, the orthographic projection area of ​​the first connecting member 410 on the first surface 121 along the thickness direction X is S1, the orthographic projection area of ​​the first protective film 400 on the first surface 121 along the thickness direction X is S2, and the area of ​​the pressure relief port 110 on the first surface 121 is S8; the battery cell satisfies: 0.4≤(S2-S1) / S8≤1.5. The present application sets a first protective film 400 on the surface of the explosion-proof valve 300 facing the accommodating cavity 130, which can prevent the electrolyte from contacting the explosion-proof valve 300 when the explosion-proof valve 300 is facing downward or in vibration conditions, causing the explosion-proof valve 300 to be corroded by the electrolyte and affecting the safety performance of the battery cell.

[0029] See also Figure 8 , Figure 8 The schematic diagram of the structure of the first connector and the first protective film in the battery cell provided by the embodiment of the present application is illustrated. Furthermore, the application increases the peeling force between the first protective film 400 and the first connector 410 by setting the first protective film 400 and the first connector 410, and sets an area ratio relationship between the first connector 410, the first protective film 400 and the pressure relief port 110, so as to prevent the first protective film 400 from peeling off from the first surface 121, so that the electrolyte leakage causes corrosion to the explosion-proof valve 300, and improve the reliability of the battery cell.

[0030] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, existing dimension measuring tools such as vernier calipers and micrometers are used to measure the length and width of the orthographic projection of the first connecting member 410 on the first surface 121 along the thickness direction X, the length and width of the orthographic projection of the first protective film 400 on the first surface 121 along the thickness direction X, and the length and width of the pressure relief port 110 on the first surface 121, and then calculate S1, S2, and S8. The value of (S2-S1) / S8 is in the range of 0.4 to 1.5, that is, the value can be any value among 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5, or a range value between any two values. When the thickness of the first connecting member 410 is not changed, the smaller the value is, the greater the peeling force between the first protective film 400 and the first surface 121 is. When the value of (S2-S1) / S8 is in the range of 0.4~1.5, since the ratio does not exceed 1.5, it can ensure that the first protective film 400 is firmly fixed to the first surface 121 through the first connecting member 410, and ensure that the first protective film 400 is always located on the side of the explosion-proof valve 300 facing the accommodating chamber 130, so as to prevent the explosion-proof valve 300 from being corroded by the electrolyte in the accommodating chamber 130; at the same time, since the ratio is not less than 0.4, it can be avoided that the area of ​​the first connecting member 410 located at the position of the explosion-proof valve 300 is too large. When the explosion-proof valve 300 is opened, the solid and liquid substances rushing out of the explosion-proof valve 300 will adhere to the first connecting member 410, hindering the pressure relief rate. The first connecting member 410 will affect the pressure relief rate of the explosion-proof valve 300, and at the same time increase the difficulty and cost of rework.

[0031] In some embodiments, the battery cell further includes: a second protective film 200 and a second connecting member 210, the second protective film 200 is disposed outside the accommodating cavity 130, and at least a portion of the second protective film 200 can be exposed from the pressure relief port 110; the second connecting member 210 is located between the second protective film 200 and the second surface 122 and is respectively connected to the second protective film 200 and the second surface 122, so that the second protective film 200 seals the pressure relief port 110; wherein, the orthographic projection area of ​​the second connecting member 210 along the thickness direction X on the second surface 122 is S3, the orthographic projection area of ​​the second protective film 200 along the thickness direction X on the second surface 122 is S4, and the area of ​​the pressure relief port 110 on the second surface 122 is S9; the battery cell satisfies: 0.4≤(S4-S3) / S9≤1.5. Specifically, the present application provides a second protective film 200 outside the accommodating cavity 130 to prevent external debris from impacting the explosion-proof valve 300 and damaging the explosion-proof valve 300 during the movement of the battery cell, thereby affecting the function of the explosion-proof valve 300 and improving the reliability of the battery cell.

[0032] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, existing dimension measuring tools such as vernier calipers and micrometers are used to measure the length and width of the orthographic projection of the second connecting member 210 on the second surface 122 along the thickness direction X, the length and width of the orthographic projection of the second protective film 200 on the second surface 122 along the thickness direction X, and the length and width of the pressure relief port 110 on the second surface 122, and then calculate S3, S4, and S9. The value of (S4-S3) / S9 is in the range of 0.4 to 1.5, that is, the value can be any value among 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5, or a range value between any two values. The smaller the value, the greater the peeling force between the second protective film 200 and the second surface 122.

[0033] When the value of (S4-S3) / S9 is in the range of 0.4~1.5, since the ratio does not exceed 1.5, it can ensure that the first protective film 400 is firmly fixed to the first surface 121 through the first connecting piece 410, ensuring that the first protective film is always located on the side of the explosion-proof valve 300 facing the accommodating chamber 130. During the movement of the cell monomer, external debris will impact the explosion-proof valve 300 and damage the explosion-proof valve 300, affecting the function of the explosion-proof valve 300. At the same time, since the ratio is not less than 0.4, it can avoid that the area of ​​the first connecting piece at the explosion-proof valve position is too large. When the explosion-proof valve is opened, the solid and liquid substances rushing out of it will adhere to the first connecting piece 410, hindering the pressure relief rate. The first connecting piece 410 will affect the pressure relief rate of the explosion-proof valve 300, while increasing the difficulty and cost of rework.

[0034] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection area of ​​the first connecting member 410 on the first surface 121 along the thickness direction X is S1 mm. 2 , satisfying 242≤S1≤1400, the orthographic projection area of ​​the first protective film 400 on the first surface 121 along the thickness direction X is S2mm 2 , satisfying: 105≤S2≤5000, the area of ​​the pressure relief port 110 on the first surface 121 is S8mm 2 , satisfying: 100≤S8≤2000.

[0035] It should be noted that the value of S1 is in the range of 242~1400, that is, the value can be any value among 242, 300, 500, 880, 1400 or a range value between any two values; the value of S2 is in the range of 105~5000, that is, the value can be any value among 370, 2200, 3000, 2200, 3000, 5000 or a range value between any two values; the value of S3 is in the range of 100~2000, that is, the value can be any value among 100, 320, 1066, 1154, 2000 or a range value between any two values.

[0036] S1, S2, and S3 satisfy the above ranges, which can ensure the bonding strength of the first protective film and reduce the difficulty of rework.

[0037] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection area of ​​the second connecting member 210 on the second surface 122 along the thickness direction X is S3 mm. 2 , satisfying: 24≤S3≤1920, the orthographic projection area of ​​the second protective film 200 on the second surface 122 along the thickness direction X is S4mm 2 , satisfying: 120≤S4≤3200, the area of ​​the pressure relief port 110 on the second surface 122 is S9mm 2 , satisfying: 100≤S9≤2000.

[0038] It should be noted that the value of S3 is in the range of 24~1920, that is, the value can be any value among 24, 107, 150, 200, 372, 400, 611, 651, 967, 1500, 1920, or a range value between any two values; the value of S4 is in the range of 120~3200, that is, the value can be any value among 120, 500, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1605, 2250, 1600, 3200, or a range value between any two values; the value of S9 is in the range of 100~2000, that is, the value can be any value among 100, 200, 320, 1066, 1154, 2000, or a range value between any two values.

[0039] S3, S4, and S9 meet the above ranges, which can ensure the bonding strength of the second protective film and reduce the difficulty of rework.

[0040] See also Figure 5 , Figure 5 Indicated Figure 4A partial enlarged schematic diagram of the middle C region. In some embodiments, the thickness of the first connector 410 along the thickness direction X is D1 mm, the thickness of the second connector 210 along the thickness direction X is D2 mm, and the battery cell satisfies: 0.01≤D1≤0.1; and / or, 0.01≤D2≤0.1.

[0041] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, existing dimension measuring tools such as vernier calipers and micrometers are used to measure the thickness of the first connecting member 410 along the thickness direction X and the thickness of the second connecting member 210 along the thickness direction X. The value of D1 is in the range of 0.01 to 0.1, that is, the value can be any value in 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06, 0.07, 0.08, 0.09, 0.1 or a range value between any two values. The value of D2 is in the range of 0.01 to 0.1, that is, the value can be any value in 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06, 0.07, 0.08, 0.09, 0.1 or a range value between any two values. Controlling the values ​​of D1 and D2 within the above range can ensure the bonding strength while avoiding waste and increasing costs.

[0042] It should be noted that the thickness of the first connecting member 410 and the second connecting member 210 may be the same. In one embodiment, the thickness of the first connecting member 410 and the second connecting member 210 may both be 0.05 mm.

[0043] It should be noted that the first connecting member 410 and the second connecting member 210 are adhesive layers. The first connecting member 410 and the second connecting member 210 can use an adhesive layer of model 3M467, a double-sided adhesive tape under the 3M brand, or other domestic glue or double-sided adhesive tape.

[0044] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the first protective film 400 on the first surface 121 just covers the explosion-proof valve 300; and / or, the orthographic projection of the second protective film 200 on the second surface 122 just covers the explosion-proof valve 300. The protection effect of the explosion-proof valve 300 can be guaranteed, and at the same time, the usage of the first protective film 400 and the second protective film 200 can be reduced, thereby reducing the cost.

[0045] See also Figure 6 , Figure 6The schematic diagram of the structure of the second connector and the second protective film in the battery cell provided by the embodiment of the present application is illustrated. In some embodiments, the second protective film 200 has a plurality of air holes 220, and the air holes 220 penetrate the second protective film 200 along the thickness direction X. When the battery cell is baked at high temperature, since the internal accommodating cavity 130 is a closed space, the internal air will expand and contract due to heat, which will cause the second protective film 200 to collapse after baking. For this reason, the embodiment of the present application is provided with air holes 220, so that the internal and external air pressures of the battery cell are consistent, so as to avoid the second protective film 200 from collapsing and losing its protective effect, thereby improving the safety of the battery cell.

[0046] In some embodiments, multiple vent holes 220 are arranged in an array perpendicular to the thickness direction X. Specifically, the array arrangement of multiple vent holes 220 can further increase the speed of maintaining consistency of air pressure inside and outside the battery cell, further prevent the second protective film 200 from collapsing and losing its protective effect, and improve the safety of the battery cell.

[0047] In some embodiments, it further includes: a bottom support plate 500, which is disposed between the electrode assembly 600 and the bottom wall 120, and is connected to the housing 100; the bottom support plate 500 has an avoidance hole 510, which penetrates the bottom support plate 500 along the thickness direction X and corresponds to the position of the pressure relief port 110, and the first protective film 400 is disposed in the avoidance hole 510. In this way, the electrode assembly 600 is isolated from the bottom wall 120 by providing the bottom support plate 500 to prevent the electrode assembly 600 from short-circuiting, and the provision of the avoidance hole 510 can ensure the function of the explosion-proof valve 300 during thermal runaway.

[0048] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection area of ​​the explosion-proof valve 300 on the bottom wall 120 along the thickness direction X is S5 mm. 2 , the area of ​​the first surface 121 is S6mm 2 , the area of ​​the second surface 122 is S7 mm 2 , the battery cell satisfies: 0.01<S5 / S6≤0.5; and / or, 0.008<S5 / S7≤0.5.

[0049] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, existing dimension measuring tools such as vernier calipers and micrometers are used to measure the orthographic projection of the explosion-proof valve 300 on the bottom wall 120 along the thickness direction X, the length and width of the first surface 121 and the second surface 122, and then calculate S5, S6 and S7. The value of S5 / S6 is in the range of 0.01~0.5, that is, the value can be any value among 0.01, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 or the range between any two values. The value of S5 / S7 is in the range of 0.008~0.5, that is, the value can be any value among 0.008, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 or the range between any two values. Under the premise of ensuring that the explosion of the explosion-proof valve 300 is normal, the production cost of the battery cell is avoided to be too high.

[0050] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the first protective film 400 on the first surface 121 along the thickness direction X is an ellipse or a polygon, and / or the orthographic projection of the second protective film 200 on the second surface 122 along the thickness direction X is an ellipse or a polygon. In this way, the orthographic projection shape of the ellipse or polygon can more effectively utilize the space of the first surface 121 and the second surface 122, thereby covering the pressure relief port 110 or the explosion-proof valve 300 to the greatest extent, and providing more comprehensive protection without wasting space.

[0051] See also Figure 7 , Figure 7 The structure diagram of the explosion-proof valve in the battery cell provided by the embodiment of the present application is illustrated. In some embodiments, the battery cell further includes: a top cover sheet 800, the top cover sheet 800 is connected to the shell 100 and covers the accommodating cavity 130, and the bottom wall 120 is arranged toward the top cover sheet 800. In the embodiment of the present application, the explosion-proof valve 300 includes a welding portion 310, a weak portion 320 and a reinforcing portion 330, wherein the welding portion 310 is welded to the top cover sheet 800 to seal the pressure relief port 110, and the weak portion 320 is arranged between the welding portion 310 and the reinforcing portion 330. During the use of the battery cell, the positive and negative electrode materials of the electrode assembly 600 will generate gas. When the internal pressure of the battery cell increases due to thermal runaway and other reasons and reaches a predetermined value, the gas and high-temperature foreign matter are in place from the inside, and successively break through the first protective film 400, the weak portion 320 of the explosion-proof valve 300 and the second protective film 200, and are ejected in time to achieve the purpose of timely pressure relief, so as to avoid safety risks such as explosion caused by failure to timely relieve pressure. Generally speaking, the battery cell is vertical in the vehicle, that is, the top cover sheet 800 is close to the passenger compartment, and the bottom wall 120 is close to the chassis and close to the ground. In the embodiment of the present application, the pressure relief port 110 is arranged toward the top cover sheet 800, and when thermal runaway occurs, gas and high-temperature foreign matter can be discharged downward or to the side to avoid being sprayed into the passenger compartment and causing personal injury.

[0052] Next, specific embodiments of the battery cell of the present application are provided, and the present application is described in more detail through the specific embodiments.

[0053] It should be noted that the thickness of the first connecting member 410 and the second connecting member 210 in the following embodiments are both the same, which is 0.05 mm. The first connecting member 410 and the second connecting member 210 are both made of double-sided adhesive of model 3M467, a 3M brand.

[0054] Among them, the peeling force test method is: place a sample with a width of 25mm and a length greater than 175mm close to the steel plate, leave it for 20 minutes, fix the steel plate, clamp the sample with a clamp, peel the sample in a 180° direction at a speed of 300mm / min, and record the maximum force during the peeling process, which is the peeling force.

[0055] The test method for whether the burst value is normal is to fill the battery with gas until the explosion-proof valve 300 ruptures and releases pressure. The pressure when the explosion-proof valve 300 ruptures and releases pressure is the burst value. If the value is within the normal range of the battery cell of the corresponding volume model, the burst value is considered normal. If it is not within the range, the burst value is considered abnormal.

[0056] Whether the housing 100 is deformed can be confirmed by observation. If the surface of the housing 100 is cracked, dislocated, deformed, etc., it can be considered that the housing 100 is deformed.

[0057] Among them, the difficulty of rework refers to the difficulty of operation during rework and the increased cost caused. If the difficulty is increased, the rework difficulty is considered to be high. If there is no additional increase in rework difficulty and rework cost, the rework difficulty is considered to be low.

[0058] Examples 1 to 9 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 are shown in Tables 1 to 2: Table 1

[0059] Table 2

[0060] It can be seen from the above-mentioned Examples 1-9 and Comparative Examples 1-2 that when the battery cell satisfies 0.4≤(S2-S1) / S8≤1.5, the bonding strength of the first protective film can be guaranteed and the difficulty of rework is low. On the contrary, when (S2-S1) / S8 is too small, the adhesion area between the first connecting member and the explosion-proof valve will be too large, which may cause damage to the explosion-proof valve during rework, increasing the difficulty and cost of rework. When (S2-S1) / S8 is too large, the first protective film is easily peeled off and the connection strength of the first protective film is too small.

[0061] It can be seen from the above-mentioned embodiments 1-9 and comparative examples 1-2 that when the battery cell satisfies 0.4≤(S4-S3) / S9≤1.5, the bonding strength of the second protective film can be guaranteed and the difficulty of rework is low. On the contrary, when (S4-S3) / S9 is too small, the adhesion area between the first connecting member and the explosion-proof valve will be too large, which may cause damage to the explosion-proof valve during rework, increasing the difficulty and cost of rework. When (S4-S3) / S9 is too large, the first protective film is easily peeled off and the connection strength of the first protective film is too small.

[0062] It can be seen from the above-mentioned embodiments 1-9 and comparative examples 1-2 that when the battery cell satisfies 0.01≤S5 / S6≤0.5 and 0.008≤S5 / S7≤0.5, the explosion value of the battery cell is normal and the shell will not be deformed due to insufficient strength. On the contrary, if the ratio of S5 / S6 to S5 / S7 is too small, the explosion value of the battery cell is abnormal, the battery cell cannot explode normally, and the shell will be deformed, increasing the safety risk. If the ratio of S5 / S6 to S5 / S7 is too large, the area of ​​the explosion-proof valve on the bottom wall of the shell accounts for too large a proportion, which will lead to insufficient strength of the shell.
