AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

When the internal pressure of lithium batteries is too high, after the explosion-proof diaphragm ruptures, oxygen and moisture in the air can easily enter the battery, causing the negative electrode plate to oxidize and increase the risk of thermal runaway from the battery.

Method used

An explosion-proof structure for the lithium battery cover is designed, including barrel one, barrel two, barrel three, barrel cover, sealing cover plate, spring and sealing rubber gasket. When the internal air pressure of the battery is too high, the gas enters the gap between barrel three and barrel two through the air inlet hole, causing the sealing cover to be flushed open, the gas is discharged through the exhaust hole, and then the sealing rubber pad is re-sealed to isolate the outside world.

Benefits of technology

It effectively reduces the risk of battery runaway, prevents oxygen and moisture from entering the battery, and improves battery safety.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithium battery cover plates, in particular to an explosion-proof structure of a lithium battery cover plate. Background Art

[0002] To prevent an explosion caused by excessive internal pressure in lithium batteries, an explosion-proof diaphragm is installed on the lithium battery cover. When the battery pressure rises to exceed the set pressure of the explosion-proof diaphragm, the explosion-proof diaphragm ruptures and the gas in the battery is released, thereby reducing the risk of battery explosion.

[0003] The existence of explosion-proof diaphragm can have a good explosion-proof effect on lithium batteries, but it also has defects. When the explosion-proof membrane ruptures, the inside of the battery is connected to the outside world, and oxygen and moisture in the air can easily enter the battery, causing the charged negative electrode to oxidize, causing the battery temperature to rise, and increasing the risk of thermal runaway of the battery. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the problems mentioned in the background technology, the purpose of the utility model is to provide an explosion-proof structure of a lithium battery cover.

[0005] In order to achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the utility model is:

[0006] The explosion-proof structure of a lithium battery cover comprises a cover body, on which an explosion-proof structure is arranged, the explosion-proof structure comprises a tube one, a tube two, a tube three, a tube cover, a sealing cover plate and a spring, the first axial ends of the tube one, the tube two and the tube three are all fixedly connected to the bottom of the cover body, the tube two is arranged inside the tube three, the tube one is arranged inside the tube two, the tube cover is threadedly connected to the second axial end of the tube three, the sealing cover plate is arranged in the tube cover, a connecting shaft is vertically fixedly connected to the first end face of the sealing cover plate, the connecting shaft is slidably fitted in the tube one, a spring is abutted between the second end face of the sealing cover plate and the bottom wall of the tube cover, a sealing rubber pad is bonded to the first end face of the sealing cover plate, the sealing rubber pad abuts on the second ports of the tube two and the tube three, a plurality of air inlet holes are arranged on the circumferential surface of the tube three, and a plurality of exhaust holes are opened on the cover body corresponding to the gap between the tube one and the tube two.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a damping rubber ring, which is sleeved on the connecting shaft and abuts against the inner wall of the cylinder.

[0008] Furthermore, a ring body is protrudingly formed on the outer wall of the cylinder three, and the cylinder cover is threadedly connected to the ring body.

[0009] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: when the internal air pressure of the battery is too high, the gas enters the gap between the tube three and the tube two from the air inlet hole, thereby pushing the sealing cover plate downward, and then the gas enters the gap between the tube two and the tube one, and is finally discharged from the exhaust hole, which has the traditional air release function. When the gas is released, under the action of the spring, the sealing gasket again contacts the second port of the tube three and the tube two, and isolates the inside of the battery from the outside world, preventing oxygen and moisture from entering the battery through the pressure relief hole, reducing the risk of battery loss of control, and improving the safety of the battery.
