AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

As the length of secondary battery cells increases, the tabs become more prone to shaking inside the casing, resulting in poor structural stability. Furthermore, the tabs are easily bent or damaged during assembly, affecting the battery's electrical performance and safety.

Method used

The design employs a restraint component, which uses through holes and protrusions to limit and guide the tabs, ensuring that the tabs bend in an orderly manner, avoiding contact with the housing, and improving structural stability and electrical connection reliability.

Benefits of technology

This effectively prevents the tabs from bending and being damaged during assembly, improves the structural stability and electrical performance of the energy storage device, reduces assembly difficulty, and ensures the stability and safety of the electrical connection.

Abstract

This application relates to an energy storage device and an electrical system. The energy storage device includes: a housing, an electrode assembly, an end cap assembly, and a restraining member. The housing has a receiving cavity; the electrode assembly is disposed within the receiving cavity and includes multiple electrically connected tabs and electrode bodies, which are arranged along a first direction; the end cap assembly is disposed on one side of the housing for sealing the receiving cavity; the restraining member is located between the end cap assembly and the electrode bodies; the restraining member has a through hole that penetrates two opposing surfaces of the restraining member along the first direction; the through hole extends along a second direction, and the multiple tabs pass through the through hole, wherein the first direction and the second direction intersect; the through hole has a first sidewall and a second sidewall disposed opposite each other along the second direction, and the distance between the first sidewall and the second sidewall along the second direction is greater than the size of the ends of the multiple tabs near the electrode bodies.
