[0040] An embodiment of the present application provides an electrical connecting sheet, which will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 5 , showing a schematic diagram of the structure of four electrical connecting sheets provided in the embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 6 , showing a schematic diagram of the structure of a battery pack provided in an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 7 , shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a separator of a battery pack provided in an embodiment of the present application. It should be noted that, for ease of understanding, the drawings of the embodiment of the present application schematically separate the middle area 111, the edge area 112 and the transition area 113 with dotted lines.
[0042] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present application provides an electrical connection sheet 1, which is applied to a battery pack. The battery pack includes a single battery 2, and the single battery 2 is provided with a pole 21. The electrical connection sheet 1 has a first direction X and a second direction Y that are perpendicular to each other. The electrical connection sheet 1 includes: a recessed portion 11 and two fixing portions 12; the two fixing portions 12 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X, and the fixing portions 12 are used to connect with the pole 21. The recessed portion 11 is arranged between the two fixing portions 12 and is respectively connected to the two fixing portions 12; along the second direction Y, the recessed portion 11 has a middle area 111 and edge areas 112 located on both sides of the middle area 111, and the width of the recessed portion 11 in the middle area 111 along the first direction X is smaller than the width of the recessed portion 11 in the edge area 112 along the first direction X.
[0043] In the embodiment of the present application, when the battery pack expands or is affected by external vibration, causing the poles 21 of two adjacent single cells 2 to be displaced, on the one hand, since the recessed portion 11 is provided between the two fixing portions 12, that is, the electrical connection sheet 1 as a whole has a certain ductility, the displacement change of the pole 21 can be buffered by the deformation of the recessed portion 11, so that the pole 21 and the electrical connection sheet 1 are reliably connected together. On the other hand, since the width of the recessed portion 11 in the middle area 111 along the first direction X is smaller than the width of the recessed portion 11 in the edge area 112 along the first direction X, that is, the recessed portion 11 is roughly in the shape of a narrow middle and wide edge. In this way, the recessed portion 11 can have a greater deformation capacity in a larger direction angle, so that the electrical connection sheet 1 as a whole has a certain ductility in multiple directions, so that the displacement change of the pole 21 in different directions can be buffered, so that the pole 21 and the electrical connection sheet 1 maintain an effective connection, which is beneficial to the connection stability between the single cell 2 and the electrical connection sheet 1.
[0044] It should be noted that the first direction X refers to the length direction of the electrical connection sheet 1, the second direction Y refers to the width direction of the electrical connection sheet 1, and the third direction Z refers to the thickness direction of the electrical connection sheet 1. The first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other. In practical applications, each single cell 2 is provided with two poles 21, namely a positive pole and a negative pole. The electrical connection sheet 1, also known as a busbar, is used to connect two adjacent single cells 2 to achieve convergence. Specifically, the two fixing portions 12 of the electrical connection sheet 1 are respectively connected to the positive pole of one of the two adjacent single cells 2 and the negative pole of the other one to achieve convergence, wherein the current flows along the length direction of the electrical connection sheet 1, namely the first direction X. In addition, in practical applications, the battery pack generally also includes a voltage acquisition terminal, which is used to collect voltage information of the electrical connection sheet 1, thereby realizing real-time monitoring of the battery pack voltage. In the embodiment of the present application, the voltage collection terminal can be connected to the recessed portion 11. This not only avoids the voltage collection terminal from occupying the battery pack space, but also protects the voltage collection terminal from being damaged, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of voltage monitoring.
[0045] In practical applications, the fixing portion 12 and the recessed portion 11 can be integrally formed, or they can be separately formed and then connected. This is not limited here, and those skilled in the art can adjust it according to actual needs. It can be understood that when the fixing portion 12 and the recessed portion 11 are integrally formed, on the one hand, the processing technology of the electrical connection sheet 1 can be simplified, and on the other hand, the overall structural strength of the electrical connection sheet 1 can be improved. In one embodiment, the fixing portion 12 and the recessed portion 11 are integrally formed by stamping.
[0046] In practical applications, the recessed portion 11 of the electrical connecting sheet 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application has four specific structures, which are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0047] Embodiment 1
[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the width of the recessed portion 11 along the first direction X increases gradually from the middle region 111 to the edge region 112. In this way, on the one hand, the direction angle of the deformation of the recessed portion 11 can be maximized, thereby effectively buffering the displacement changes of the pole 21 in different directions, so that the pole 21 and the electrical connection sheet 1 maintain an effective connection, which is beneficial to the connection stability between the single battery 2 and the electrical connection sheet 1. On the other hand, the recessed portion 11 has a simple structure, which can simplify the processing technology of the recessed portion 11, which is beneficial to reducing the processing cost of the electrical connection sheet 1.
[0049] Embodiment 2
[0050] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, along the direction from the middle area 111 to the edge area 112, the width of the recessed portion 11 in the middle area 111 along the first direction X is the same, and the width of the recessed portion 11 in the edge area 112 along the first direction X increases gradually. In this way, compared with the structure of the recessed portion 11 in the first embodiment, the recessed portion 11 in this embodiment can effectively alleviate the problem of stress concentration in the middle area 111, which is conducive to improving the overall structural strength of the electrical connection sheet 1.
[0051] Embodiment 3
[0052] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, along the direction from the middle area 111 to the edge area 112, the width of the recessed portion 11 in the middle area 111 along the first direction X increases gradually, and the width of the recessed portion 11 in the edge area 112 along the first direction X is the same. In this way, compared with the structure of the recessed portion 11 in the first embodiment, when the electrical connection sheet 1 connects two poles 21 with larger outer diameters, interference between the edge area 112 of the recessed portion 11 and the pole 21 can be effectively avoided, so that the electrical connection sheet 1 and the pole 21 are smoothly connected, which is conducive to improving the connection reliability between the electrical connection sheet 1 and the single battery 2.
[0053] Embodiment 4
[0054] like Figures 4 to 5As shown, in one embodiment, the recessed portion 11 further includes a transition area 113; the transition area 113 is located between the middle area 111 and the edge area 112; along the direction from the middle area 111 to the edge area 112, the width of the recessed portion 11 in the middle area 111 along the first direction X is the same, the width of the recessed portion 11 in the transition area 113 along the first direction X increases gradually, and the width of the recessed portion 11 in the edge area 112 along the first direction X is the same. In this way, compared with the structure of the recessed portion 11 in the first embodiment, on the one hand, the stress concentration problem in the middle area 111 can be effectively alleviated, which is conducive to improving the overall structural strength of the electrical connection sheet 1. On the other hand, when the electrical connection sheet 1 connects two poles 21 with larger outer diameters, interference between the edge area 112 of the recessed portion 11 and the pole 21 can be effectively avoided, so that the electrical connection sheet 1 and the pole 21 are smoothly connected, which is conducive to improving the connection reliability between the electrical connection sheet 1 and the single battery 2.
[0055] It should be noted that the middle area 111, the transition area 113 and the edge area 112 are distributed along the width of the electrical connection sheet 1, that is, the second direction Y. The middle area 111 refers to the area close to the center of the recessed portion 11, the edge area 112 refers to the area close to the edge of the recessed portion 11, and the transition area 113 refers to the area between the middle area 111 and the edge area 112. The middle area 111 and the edge areas 112 on both sides of the middle area 111 of the first to third embodiments can be symmetrically distributed or asymmetrically distributed; the middle area 111 of the fourth embodiment, the transition area 113 and the edge area 112 distributed on both sides of the middle area 111 can be symmetrically distributed or asymmetrically distributed, wherein the symmetrical distribution and / or asymmetrical distribution is based on the axis parallel to the first direction X and passing through the center of the recessed portion 11.
[0056] In practical applications, in order to further alleviate the stress concentration at the junction of the middle area 111, the edge area 112 and the transition area 113, the junctions of the middle area 111 and the edge area 112 of Examples 1 to 3 are rounded; the junctions of the middle area 111 and the transition area 113, and the junctions of the transition area 113 and the edge area 112 of Example 4 are all rounded.
[0057] In some optional embodiments of the present application, the electrical connecting sheet 1 also includes a third direction Z, which is perpendicular to the first direction X and the second direction Y respectively; the recessed portion 11 includes a plurality of layers of metal sheets, which are stacked in sequence along the third direction Z, and each metal sheet is connected to the two fixing portions 12 at both ends along the first direction X respectively.
[0058] In the embodiment of the present application, since the recessed portion 11 includes multiple layers of metal sheets stacked in sequence along the third direction Z, on the one hand, the heat dissipation area of the recessed portion 11 can be increased, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the electrical connecting sheet 1; on the other hand, the overall flexibility of the recessed portion 11 can be improved, which is beneficial to improving the ability of the recessed portion 11 to buffer deformation.
[0059] It should be noted that, in one embodiment, both the recessed portion 11 and the fixed portion 12 include multi-layer metal sheets, that is, the electrical connection sheet 1 includes multi-layer metal sheets. During the processing, in order to make the fixed portion 12 reliably electrically connected to the pole 21, the multi-layer metal sheets of the fixed portion 12 are welded into a whole by polymer diffusion welding to ensure reliable current transmission, while the multi-layer metal sheets of the recessed portion 11 maintain a free multi-layer structure, wherein the metal sheets include but are not limited to aluminum foil. In another embodiment, the fixed portion 12 is a metal plate. During the processing, the two ends of each layer of the metal sheet of the recessed portion 11 along the first direction X are respectively connected to the metal plates on both sides, thereby realizing current transmission, wherein the metal plates include but are not limited to aluminum plates.
[0060] In summary, the electrical connecting sheet provided in the embodiments of the present application has at least the following advantages:
[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, the electrical connection sheet includes: a recessed portion and two fixed portions; the two fixed portions are arranged at intervals along the first direction, the fixed portion is used to connect with the pole, the recessed portion is arranged between the two fixed portions and is respectively connected with the two fixed portions; along the second direction, the recessed portion has a middle area and edge areas located on both sides of the middle area, and the width of the recessed portion in the middle area along the first direction is smaller than the width of the recessed portion in the edge area along the first direction. In this way, when the battery pack expands or is affected by external vibrations, causing the poles of two adjacent single cells to be displaced, on the one hand, since the recessed portion is arranged between the two fixed portions, that is, the electrical connection sheet as a whole has a certain degree of ductility, the displacement change of the pole can be buffered by the deformation of the recessed portion, so that the pole and the electrical connection sheet are reliably connected together. On the other hand, since the width of the recessed portion in the middle area along the first direction is smaller than the width of the recessed portion in the edge area along the first direction, that is, the recessed portion is roughly in a shape of narrow in the middle and wide at the edge, the recessed portion has a deformation ability in a larger direction angle. In this way, the electrical connecting piece as a whole has a certain ductility in multiple directions, which can buffer the displacement changes of the pole in different directions, further improve the connection reliability between the pole and the electrical connecting piece, and is conducive to the reliable transmission of electric energy.
[0062] like Figure 6As shown, an embodiment of the present application further provides a battery pack, comprising: at least two single cells 2, at least two single cells 2 are arranged in sequence along a first direction X, each single cell 2 comprises a top cover 22 arranged perpendicular to a third direction Z and a pole 21 arranged on the top cover 22, the third direction Z is respectively perpendicular to the first direction X and the second direction Y; and an electrical connecting sheet 1 of any of the above items, the two fixing portions 12 are respectively connected to the poles 21 of two adjacent single cells 2, the recessed portion 11 is located between the poles 21 of two adjacent single cells 2, and the recessed portion 11 is recessed toward the direction of the top cover 22.
[0063] In the embodiment of the present application, since the electrical connection sheet 1 includes two fixing portions 12, the confluence of two adjacent single cells 2 can be achieved by connecting the two fixing portions 12 with the poles 21 of two adjacent single cells 2. Since the electrical connection sheet 1 includes a recessed portion 11, the recessed portion 11 is located between the poles 21 of two adjacent single cells 2. Thus, on the one hand, the assembly tolerance of the battery pack assembly process can be eliminated so that the poles 21 and the electrical connection sheet 1 can be smoothly connected. On the other hand, when the battery pack expands or is affected by external vibrations, causing the poles 21 of two adjacent single cells 2 to be displaced, the recessed portion 11 can be deformed to buffer the displacement changes of the poles 21 in different directions, so that the poles 21 and the electrical connection sheet 1 maintain an effective connection, which is beneficial to the connection stability between the single cell 2 and the electrical connection sheet 1. In addition, since the recessed portion 11 is recessed in the direction of the top cover 22, the occupation of the battery pack space by the electrical connection sheet 1 can be reduced.
[0064] It should be noted that the pole 21 includes a positive pole and a negative pole, and the two fixing portions 12 of the electrical connection sheet 1 are respectively connected to the positive pole of one of the two adjacent single cells 2 and the negative pole of the other one of the two adjacent single cells 2. In the embodiment of the present application, the structure of the electrical connection sheet 1 is the same as that of the electrical connection sheet 1 in any of the above embodiments, and its beneficial effects are also similar, which will not be described in detail here.
[0065] like Figure 7 As shown, in some optional embodiments of the present application, the battery pack also includes an isolation plate 23, which is arranged on the side of the top cover 22 away from the center of the single battery 2; the isolation plate 23 is provided with a mounting groove 231 at the corresponding position of the electrical connecting plate 1, and the mounting groove 231 has a bottom wall 2311 and a side wall 2312, the bottom wall 2311 is provided with a through hole 23111, the pole 21 is passed through the through hole 23111 to be connected to the electrical connecting plate 1, and the side wall 2312 is provided with one of an anti-error protrusion 23121 or an anti-error recess 131; the electrical connecting plate 1 has a peripheral wall 13, and the peripheral wall 13 is provided with the other of the anti-error protrusion 23121 or the anti-error recess 131, and the anti-error protrusion 23121 is embedded in the anti-error recess 131.
[0066] In the embodiment of the present application, since the isolation plate 23 is provided, not only the installation and positioning of the electrical connection piece 1 can be achieved, but also the electrical isolation and insulation protection inside the battery pack can be achieved. Since the side wall 2312 of the installation groove 231 is provided with one of the anti-mistake protrusions 23121 or the anti-mistake recesses 131, the peripheral wall 13 of the electrical connection piece 1 is provided with the other of the anti-mistake protrusions 23121 or the anti-mistake recesses 131. In this way, during the assembly of the electrical connection piece 1 and the pole 21, by embedding the anti-mistake protrusions 23121 in the anti-mistake recesses 131, the problem of the electrical connection piece 1 being placed upside down can be prevented, which is conducive to improving the convenience of assembly of the battery pack.
[0067] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific shapes of the error-proofing protrusion 23121 and the error-proofing recess 131, and those skilled in the art can adjust them according to actual needs. Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the peripheral wall 13 of the electrical connection piece 1 is provided with two anti-error recesses 131, and the two anti-error recesses 131 are arranged along the diagonals of the electrical connection piece 1. The anti-error recesses 131 are essentially bevel structures processed on the peripheral wall 13 of the electrical connection piece 1. The side wall 2312 of the mounting groove 231 is provided with two anti-error protrusions 23121 at the corresponding positions of the two anti-error recesses 131, respectively, and one anti-error protrusion 23121 corresponds to one anti-error recess 131, so that mistakes can be effectively prevented. During the assembly process of the electrical connection piece 1 and the pole 21, the one-to-one fitting connection between the two anti-error protrusions 23121 and the anti-error recess 131 can effectively avoid the problem that the recessed portion 11 protrudes away from the top cover 22 due to the electrical connection piece 1 being placed upside down, which is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency and assembly reliability of the battery pack.
[0068] In some optional embodiments of the present application, the pole 21 has a connection end face, which is used to connect with the fixing portion 12, and the connection end face is provided with a positioning groove; the fixing portion 12 is provided with a positioning hole 121 at a corresponding position of the positioning groove. In this way, during the assembly process of the electrical connection sheet 1 and the pole 21, the electrical connection sheet 1 can be positioned by aligning the positioning hole 121 with the positioning groove of the pole 21, which is conducive to improving the connection reliability between the electrical connection sheet 1 and the pole 21.
