Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithium batteries, in particular to a combined structure for heat insulation of lithium batteries. Background Art

[0002] Lithium batteries are a type of battery that uses lithium metal or lithium alloy as positive / negative electrode materials and uses non-aqueous electrolyte solutions. Lithium batteries have relatively high energy and high storage energy density, which is 6-7 times that of lead-acid batteries. At the same time, lithium batteries have a long service life of more than 6 years.

[0003] In the prior art, when installing a lithium battery pack, multiple lithium battery cells are arranged in parallel and then connected in series or in parallel to form a lithium battery pack. Since the lithium battery cells generate heat during use, a heat insulation structure is set between two adjacent battery cells to isolate the heat generated by the lithium battery to prevent the lithium battery module from self-igniting due to excessive heat. However, as the use cycle of the lithium battery module increases, the lithium battery module will expand during use, resulting in mutual squeezing between the lithium battery modules, which can easily cause damage to the lithium battery pack. For this reason, we propose a combined structure for lithium battery heat insulation. Utility Model Content
