[0078] Combination Figures 3 to 7 As shown, in a possible embodiment, the battery 100 includes a shell 4, the shell 4 includes a accommodating cavity 42 with an opening 41 on one side, the battery cell 1 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity 42, the shell 4 also includes a top wall 43, and the top wall 43 is provided with a first through hole 431 and a second through hole 432 at intervals, the first pole 2 is passed through the first through hole 431, and the second pole 3 is passed through the second through hole 432.

[0079] The shell 4 provides physical protection for the internal battery cell 1 to prevent external physical impact, friction or other environmental factors from causing damage to the battery cell 1. At the same time, the shell 4 provides structural support to keep the various components of the battery 100 (such as the battery cell 1, the pole, etc.) in a stable position during use to prevent the displacement of the components due to vibration or impact.

[0080] In a possible implementation, the housing 4 may be prepared by integral stamping.

[0081] In the present application, there is no need to set a cover plate, which can reduce the welding area of ​​the battery 100 and thus improve the safety of the battery 100.

[0082] In a possible implementation, the housing 4 includes a side peripheral wall 44 connected to the top wall 43 , and the side peripheral wall 44 is connected to the top wall 43 to provide structural support and protect the internal battery core 1 .

[0083] In a possible implementation, the housing 4 further includes a bottom plate 45 , the bottom plate 45 covers the opening 41 , and the bottom plate 45 is connected to the side peripheral wall 44 .

[0084] The bottom plate 45 covers the opening 41 , which can effectively seal the interior of the battery 100 to prevent the intrusion of dust, moisture and other external environmental factors, and provide a stable working environment for the battery cell 1 , thereby enabling the battery 100 to operate stably and improving the safety of the battery 100 .

[0085] The battery cell 1 can be installed in the accommodating cavity 42 through the opening 41 for easy operation. When the battery 100 fails, the bottom plate 45 can be disassembled to maintain the battery 100 or the internal parts of the battery 100 can be recycled.

[0087] The first seal 5 is located between the first column 21 and the top wall 43, providing a sealing condition for the first through hole 431 for installing the first battery cell 1, and preventing the electrolyte or chemical substances inside the battery 100 from leaking into the external environment. The first seal 5 can protect the environment around the battery 100 from potential pollution and damage. At the same time, the seal can prevent moisture, dust and other external contaminants from entering the battery 100, thereby providing a stable environment for the battery cell 1 to work.

[0088] In a possible implementation, the first seal 5 also has an insulating property. The first seal 5 can separate the first pole 2 from the top wall 43 , provide insulation, and reduce the risk of a short circuit between the first pole head 21 and the top wall 43 .

[0092] Continue to see Figures 3 to 7 As shown, in a possible embodiment, the battery 100 includes a first fastener 6 (see Figure 5 ), the first fastener 6 is arranged on the side of the top wall 43 away from the first column head 21 and is fixedly connected to the pole.

[0093] The first fastener 6 and the first column head 21 are respectively located on both sides of the top wall 43. The first pole 2 can be limited by the clamping action of the first fastener 6 and the first column head 21, so as to fix the first pole 2 to prevent the first positive pole and the second pole piece 12 from being short-circuited when the battery 100 is vibrated by external force, thereby causing a short circuit.

[0094] The first fastener 6 is welded to the first pole 2 when the pole head squeezes the sealing member, so that the sealing ring can be locked and the sealing effect of the sealing member is improved.

[0095] In a possible implementation, the battery 100 includes a second fastener, which is disposed on a side of the top wall 43 away from the second column head 31 and is fixedly connected to the pole.

[0096] The effect of the second fastener on the second pole 3 can be seen from the effect of the first fastener 6 on the first pole 2 .

The first insulating member 71 provides physical insulation between the battery cell 1 and the top wall 43, which helps to reduce the risk of short circuit and ensure the safety and reliability of the battery 100.

[0098] In a possible implementation, a groove 711 is provided on the side of the first insulating member 71 away from the top wall 43, and the first fastener 6 is accommodated in the groove 711. The groove 711 facilitates the installation of the first fastener 6, so that the first fastener 6 can be easily positioned during installation. The first insulating member 71 has a limiting effect on the first fastener 6, which can reduce the displacement of the first pole 2 during use, thereby reducing the risk of the first pole 2 contacting the second pole piece 12. Thereby, the safety of the battery 100 is improved.

[0099] In a possible implementation, a groove 711 is provided on a side of the second insulating member 73 away from the top wall 43, and the second fastener is accommodated in the groove 711. The function and beneficial effect of the groove 711 on the second fastener can refer to the function and beneficial effect of the groove 711 on the first fastener 6.

[0100] In a possible implementation, the battery 100 includes a second insulating member 73, which is spaced apart from the first insulating member 71 and disposed on both sides of the battery cell 1. The second insulating member 73 provides physical insulation between the battery cell 1 and the bottom plate 45, which helps reduce the risk of short circuit and ensures the safety and reliability of the battery 100.

[0101] The battery 100 includes an insulating film 72, which is located between the side wall 44 and the battery cell 1 along a direction perpendicular to the stacking of the first pole piece 11 and the second pole piece 12. The insulating film 72 provides physical insulation between the battery cell 1 and the side wall 44 of the housing 4, which helps reduce the risk of short circuit and ensures the safety and reliability of the battery 100.

[0102] During the production process, the insulating film 72 covers the battery cell 1 and is connected to the second insulating member 73 , and they are installed together in the accommodating cavity 42 , which can save steps, simplify the installation and save time.

[0103] In a possible implementation, the battery 100 includes a third insulating member 74 . The third insulating member 74 is located on a side of the top wall 43 away from the battery cell 1 . The third insulating member 74 is disposed between the first column head 21 and the top wall 43 .

[0104] The third insulating member 74 is disposed between the column head and the top wall 43, which can provide physical insulation between the column head and the top wall 43, thereby reducing the risk of short circuit. At the same time, the third insulating member 74 can reduce the exposed area of ​​the column head, thereby reducing the risk of leakage caused by the column head contacting other conductive objects outside.

[0105] In a possible implementation, the battery 100 includes an explosion-proof valve 8 , which is disposed on the housing 4 and passes through the top wall 43 , and is spaced apart from the first through hole 431 and the second through hole 432 .

[0107] In a possible implementation, the battery 100 includes a liquid injection hole 9 , which is opened on the shell 4 , connected to the accommodating cavity 42 , and spaced apart from the first through hole 431 and the second through hole 432 .

[0108] The injection hole 9 is used to inject electrolyte into the accommodating chamber 42, which facilitates the injection of electrolyte and helps the battery 100 maintain a suitable electrolyte level during use.

[0109] In a possible implementation, the liquid injection hole 9 may be disposed on the top wall 43 , the side peripheral wall 44 or the bottom plate 45 .

[0110] The present application also provides an assembly method of a battery 100, the assembly method comprising:

[0111] Provide a first pole 2, and alternately sleeve at least one first pole piece 11 and at least one second pole piece 12 on the first pole 2, and make at least one first pole piece 11 electrically connected to the first pole 2, and at least one second pole piece 12 insulated from the first pole 2. In this way, pole piece installation is facilitated.

[0112] At the same time, such installation can improve the space utilization inside the battery 100 , and more first pole pieces 11 and second pole pieces can be arranged in the same space, thereby improving the capacity of the battery 100 .

[0113] Such an assembly method can also simplify the manufacturing process of the battery 100, reduce the need for complex connection structures, reduce production costs, and improve production efficiency.

[0114] In a possible embodiment, the assembly method also includes providing a second pole 3, alternately sleeved at least one first pole piece 11 and at least one second pole piece 12 on the second pole 3 in sequence, and insulating at least one first pole piece 11 from the second pole 3, and electrically connecting at least one second pole piece 12 to the second pole 3.

[0115] When at least one first pole piece 11 and at least one second pole piece 12 are alternately sleeved on the first pole 2 in sequence, at least one first pole piece 11 and at least one second pole piece 12 can also be alternately sleeved on the second pole 3 in sequence. In this way, the first pole piece 11 and the second pole piece 12 are simultaneously sleeved on the first pole 2 and the second pole 3, which can simplify the operation process, increase the assembly speed, and thus improve the production speed of the battery 100.

[0116] Before at least one first pole piece 11 and at least one second pole piece 12 are alternately sleeved on the first pole 2 and the second pole 3 in sequence, the first pole 2 and the second pole 3 can be inserted into the shell 4 and the first insulating member 71 can be sleeved on the first pole 2 and the second pole 3.

[0117] In a possible implementation, after the first insulating member 71 is sleeved on the first pole 2 and the second pole 3, the first fastener 6 and the second fastener may also be sleeved on the first pole 2 and the second pole 3 to fix the first insulating member 71 and fix the first pole 2 and the second pole 3 at the same time.

[0118] After all the devices in the accommodating chamber 42 are assembled, the bottom plate 45 is closed. The electrolyte is injected from the injection hole 9 provided on the housing 4.

[0119] Through the above-mentioned assembly method, welding points can be reduced, the circuit structure can be simplified, and the space utilization rate inside the battery 100 can be improved.
