In this process, the lithium-ion battery exhibits excellent properties such as high voltage, high specific energy, and low self-discharge rate. At the same time, the lithium battery is an excellent energy storage device.

[0018] The following will be combined with the attached Figure 1 To Attachment Figure 5 The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0019] It should be noted that if there are directions involved in the embodiments of the present invention, they shall be based on the directions shown in the drawings, such as front and back.

If a certain posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.
[0020] Reference Figures 1 - 8As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a lithium-ion battery, which includes a lithium-ion battery body 5, and also includes an outer shell 1. Four sides of the top surface of the outer shell 1 are respectively provided with pressure components 4. The bottom surface of the inner cavity of the outer shell 1 is provided with a support member 10. The top surface of the support member 10 is provided with an outer shell 2 3. The bottom surface of the inner cavity of the outer shell 2 3 is provided with a lithium-ion battery body 5. Four inner side walls of the outer shell 2 3 are respectively provided with storage components 11. The top cover 2 is installed above the inner cavity of the outer shell 2 3. Through holes 2 15 are evenly opened on the side wall of the outer shell 1. Through holes 1 13 are evenly opened on the side wall of the outer shell 2 3; Four fire guiding grooves 16 are formed in a rectangular shape on the bottom surface of the outer shell 2 3. Four flow holes 17 are evenly opened on the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the outer shell 2 3; Among them, when the lithium-ion battery body 5 catches fire, the support member 10 can be quickly burned through the fire guiding groove 16, so that the support member 10 burns out; Four installation holes 14 are evenly opened on the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the outer shell 1. A diversion pipe 9 is installed in the inner cavity of the installation hole 14. The diversion pipe 9 is designed to be bent and folded; Among them, the support member 10 is made of cotton. After the cotton is compressed, the compressed cotton is shaped and sealed with a plastic bag. When the support member 10 encounters fire, it is easy to burn out quickly, so that the outer shell 2 3 descends; Furthermore, the thickness of the support member 10 does not exceed 5 mm to avoid too slow burning speed of the support member 10. At the same time, the diameters of the through holes 2 15 and the through holes 1 13 should be smaller than the thickness of the support member 10. The distance between adjacent through holes 2 15 or through holes 1 13 should be greater than 5 mm to avoid the inability to seal each other between the outer shell 1 and the outer shell 2 3.
[0021] In a further embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 8 , the pressure component 4 includes an installation frame 401. The four sides of the top surface of the outer shell 1 are respectively provided with the installation frame 401. Two sides of the inner cavity of the installation frame 401 are respectively provided with sliding grooves 402. The bottom surface of the inner cavity of the sliding groove 402 is provided with a spring 404. The top of the spring 404 is provided with a connecting member 403; The connecting member 403 is symmetrically provided with limit blocks 405. The limit blocks 405 and the sliding grooves 402 slide relative to each other. The connecting member 403 is in an "L" shape. The side of the connecting member 403 away from the installation frame 401 is connected to the top cover 2; Among them, when the support member 10 burns out, the outer shell 2 3 will move downward under the gravity of the lithium-ion battery body 5; Furthermore, under the action of the spring 404, the connecting member 403 will press down the top cover 2 and the outer shell 2 3, thereby accelerating the descending speed of the outer shell 2 3.
[0022] In a further embodiment, refer to Figure 1 - Figure 4, the storage component 11 includes a storage box 111 and a column 114. A plurality of storage boxes 111 are evenly arranged on the inner walls of the four sides of the outer shell two 3 from top to bottom. A plurality of through grooves 112 are formed on the bottom surface of the storage box 111. The column 114 is connected to the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the outer shell one 1; Among them, fixing blocks 12 are symmetrically arranged on the storage box 111. The fixing blocks 12 further increase the contact area with the lithium-ion battery body 5 and enhance the stability of the lithium-ion battery body 5.
[0023] In a further embodiment, referring to Figure 1 - Figure 4 , the column 114 penetrates the top or bottom surface of the storage box 111, and the column 114 and the storage box 111 slide relative to each other. A plurality of groups of clamping blocks 113 are arranged on the side wall of the column 114. There are two clamping blocks 113 in a group, and they are symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the column 114. The clamping blocks 113 are slidably installed in the inner cavity of the through groove 112; Among them, the storage box 111 stores dry powder (mainly composed of ammonium phosphate and other components).
[0024] In a further embodiment, referring to Figure 1 - Figure 7 , a connection disk 6 is installed in the inner cavity of a plurality of through holes two 15, a connection disk 6 is installed in the inner cavity of a plurality of through holes one 13, and a plurality of inclined grooves 18 are evenly formed on the connection disk 6; Among them, the inclined grooves 18 of the connection disks 6 on the through holes two 15 and the through holes one 13 are staggered with each other, reducing the probability of foreign objects entering the outer shell two 3. At the same time, the staggered design can play a certain blocking role when a fire breaks out.
[0025] In a further embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , the ear of the lithium-ion battery body 5 penetrates the top cover 2 and extends above the top cover 2.
[0026] In a further embodiment, referring to Figure 1 - Figure 3 , a fixing plate 7 is installed on the bottom surface of the outer shell one 1, and the inner wall of the outer shell one 1 is in contact with the outer shell two 3; Among them, the outer shell one 1 and the outer shell two 3 are in contact with each other. When the outer shell two 3 slides downward, the through holes two 15 and the through holes one 13 on the outer shell one 1 and the outer shell two 3 are staggered with each other, thereby reducing the air circulation and the channels for the spread of flames.
[0027] An energy storage device, the energy storage device includes the above-mentioned lithium-ion battery.
[0028] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: When the lithium-ion battery body 5 catches fire for various reasons during the use of the device, the flame will quickly burn out the support member 10, and then the outer shell two 3 will quickly descend under the gravity of the lithium-ion battery body 5 and the pressure of the spring 404; Subsequently, the through hole two 15 and the through hole one 13 on the outer shell one 1 and the outer shell two 3 are staggered with each other, thereby reducing the air circulation and the flame spread channel So that the burning smoke is discharged along the flow hole 17 and the diversion pipe 9. Due to the curved and folded design of the diversion pipe 9, the probability of the flame spreading out is avoided, and the possibility of the flame spreading is reduced; At the same time, when the outer shell two 3 descends, the column 114 and the storage box 111 will slide relative to each other, so that the through groove 112 will be opened, and the dry powder in the storage box 111 will fall into the outer shell two 3, which can absorb heat, reduce the flame temperature, and inhibit the combustion reaction.
[0029] According to the disclosure and teachings of the above specification, those skilled in the art of the present invention can also make changes and modifications to the above embodiments. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed and described above, and some modifications and changes to the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention. In addition, although some specific terms are used in this specification, these terms are only for convenience of description and do not constitute any limitation to the present invention.
