[0018] Furthermore, an annular groove is circumferentially formed on the top of the aluminum nail.

[0019] The circular groove on the top allows for easy operation when inserting or removing the aluminum nail.

[0020] Furthermore, a surface of one end of the nail rod away from the nail head is provided with a notch surface, and the notch surface is recessed inwards.

[0021] The notched surface can be used for exhaust when installing the nails to reduce the resistance of the nail assembly.

[0022] Furthermore, the notch surface is a plane.

[0023] Furthermore, three notch surfaces are evenly spaced around the circumference.

[0024] Multiple evenly spaced notch surfaces allow for better air flow and facilitate installation.

[0036] The following embodiments of the technical solution of the utility model are described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, and are therefore only used as examples, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model.

[0037] See also Figures 1 to 3 The utility model provides a fluororubber sealing nail structure for a power battery, including a nail 20 and an aluminum nail 30. When the welding seal of the aluminum nail 30 fails, the nail 20 can continue to ensure the sealing effect of the injection hole 11.

[0038] Specifically, the glue nail 20 is inserted into the injection hole 11 of the battery cover 10. The injection hole 11 is a countersunk hole. The end of the glue nail 20 is located in the countersunk groove. The aluminum nail 30 is welded and fixed in the head groove, and clamps the end of the glue nail 20 with the countersunk groove of the injection hole 11. The compression amount of the end of the glue nail 20 is 25%-40%. The glue nail 20 is made of elastic material with good elasticity. The aluminum nail 30 is welded in the countersunk groove to seal the injection hole 11. The aluminum nail 30 will compress the glue nail 20 during welding, thereby forming a double-layer sealing effect, which can not only prevent the welding slag from penetrating into the battery cell when the aluminum nail is welded, but also rely on the glue nail 20 to ensure the sealing effect when the welding seal of the aluminum nail 30 fails, thereby protecting the safety of the battery cell.

[0039] The specific compression size and compression amount of the above-mentioned glue nails are as follows Figure 4 As shown, all of them can meet the standards after testing.

[0040] Specifically, the glue nail 20 is a T-shaped structure, including a nail rod 21 and a nail head 22. The nail rod 21 is inserted into the straight hole of the injection hole 11, and the nail head 22 is located in the countersunk groove of the injection hole 11. The length of the nail rod 21 is greater than the length of the straight hole of the injection hole, and the diameter of the nail head 22 is greater than the diameter of the straight hole of the injection hole. The T-shaped structure, the nail head 22 is used to compress the injection hole 11 to seal, and the nail rod 21 is inserted into the injection hole 11 to seal, and can also prevent the glue nail from falling into the battery cell, thereby improving the safety protection of the battery cell.

[0041] In this embodiment, the nail head 22 is made of fluororubber, and the nail rod 21 is made of plastic. Fluorine rubber has good elasticity, so that the compression amount of the nail head can reach 25%-40%.

[0042] The middle of the aluminum nail 30 has a recessed portion 31, and the nail head 22 is located in the recessed portion 31. The aluminum nail 30 is welded in the countersunk groove of the injection hole 11 around the circumference, and can seal the injection hole 11. The top of the aluminum nail 30 is provided with an annular groove 32 around the circumference. The aluminum nail 30 is welded in the countersunk groove of the injection hole 11, which can not only seal the injection hole 11, but also accommodate the nail head 22 through the recessed portion 31 and compress the nail head 22 to seal the injection hole 11. The annular groove 32 on the top can facilitate operation when inserting or pulling out the aluminum nail.

[0043] Specifically, a plurality of notch surfaces 23 are circumferentially provided at one end of the nail rod 21 away from the nail head 22. The notch surfaces are concave inward and are flat. The notch surfaces 23 can exhaust air outward when the glue nail 20 is inserted to reduce the assembly resistance of the glue nail 20. In this embodiment, three notch surfaces 23 are circumferentially provided at even intervals.

[0044] Furthermore, the countersunk groove of the injection hole 11 and the edges of the straight hole are rounded, and the corners of the nail head 22 and the rubber nail 20 are also rounded. The rounded edges can increase the contact surface, thereby improving the sealing effect.

[0045] In the above-mentioned power battery fluororubber sealing nail structure, the nail 20 is made of elastic fluororubber material, which improves the elastic performance. When the aluminum nail 30 is welded in the countersunk groove for sealing, the nail 20 can be compressed at the same time and reach a compression amount of 25%-40%, thereby forming a double seal. Even if the welding seal of the aluminum nail 30 fails, the nail 20 can be relied on to ensure a good sealing effect, and the T-shaped structure prevents the nail from falling off, and can also prevent welding slag from penetrating during welding, thereby improving safety.

[0046] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein by equivalents. These modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, and they should all be included in the scope of the claims and specification of the present invention.
