DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] The following detailed description and drawings of the embodiments of the present application are used to illustrate the principles of the present application, but cannot be used to limit the scope of the present application, that is, the present application is not limited to the described embodiments.

[0050] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means more than two; the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application. In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. "Vertical" is not strictly vertical, but is within the allowable error range. "Parallel" is not strictly parallel, but is within the allowable error range.

[0051] Reference to "embodiments" in this application means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described in this application may be combined with other embodiments.

[0052] The directional words appearing in the following description are all directions shown in the figures, and do not limit the specific structure of this application. In the description of this application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0053] At present, with the continuous development of battery technology, the application scenarios of battery cells are also increasing. There are many application scenarios with harsh working environments, such as high vibration environments, which cause damage to the internal structure of the battery cells and cause safety problems. Therefore, in the actual use of battery cells, the safety of battery cells has become one of the obstacles restricting its further promotion. In related technologies, a battery cell can generally include a shell and an electrode assembly disposed therein. The shell is generally provided with an electrode lead-out piece, and the electrode assembly is provided with a pole ear. The pole ear and the electrode lead-out piece are connected by a connecting component. In the production process of the battery cell, in order to ensure that the electrode assembly can smoothly enter the shell, a gap is usually left between the electrode assembly and the shell.

[0054] However, the existence of the gap makes it easy for the electrode assembly to shake inside the housing. The shaking of the electrode assembly drives the connecting components to shake, causing fatigue of the connecting components, which in turn causes the adapter to break, causing safety problems.

[0055] In order to improve the safety of battery cells, the applicant has found that adding a limiting structure in the connecting component can reduce the relative movement of the connecting component in the first direction, thereby improving the safety problem caused by the breakage of the connecting component and improving the safety of the battery cells.

[0056] Based on the above considerations, in order to improve the safety of battery cells, the inventors of the present application have designed a battery cell, a battery and an electrical device after in-depth research.

The vehicle 1000 may also include a controller 200 and a motor 300, and the controller 200 is used to control the battery 100 to power the motor 300, for example, for starting, navigating and driving the vehicle 1000.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present application, the battery 100 can not only serve as an operating power source for the vehicle 1000, but also serve as a driving power source for the vehicle 1000, replacing or partially replacing fuel or natural gas to provide driving power for the vehicle 1000.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of a battery 100 provided for some embodiments of the present application. The battery 100 includes a housing 110, and the housing 110 may include a first housing portion 111 and a second housing portion 112 connected to each other. A plurality of battery cells are connected in parallel, in series, or in a mixed combination and are placed in a space formed by connecting the first housing portion 111 and the second housing portion 112. The shape of the first housing portion 111 and the second housing portion 112 may be determined according to the shape formed by the combination of a plurality of battery cells. The battery cell may be cylindrical, flat, rectangular, or in other shapes, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

In addition, the battery 100 may also include other structures, such as a confluence component, for achieving electrical connection between a plurality of battery cells.

[0064] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, Figure 3 The schematic diagram of the structure of the battery provided by some embodiments of the present application is as follows: Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the structure of a battery cell provided in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the connecting component in the expanded state provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6A schematic diagram of the structure of the folded state of the connecting component provided in an embodiment of the present application. In some embodiments of the present application, a battery cell 10 is provided, including a shell 12, an electrode assembly 11 and a connecting component 2. The shell 12 is provided with an electrode lead-out member 123; the electrode assembly 11 is accommodated in the shell 12 and includes a first pole ear; the connecting component 2 is used to electrically connect the first pole ear and the electrode lead-out member 123, and includes a first connecting portion 21 and a second connecting portion 22, the first connecting portion 21 is bent relative to the second connecting portion 22, one of the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 is used to electrically connect to the first pole ear, and the other is used to electrically connect to the electrode lead-out member 123; the first connecting portion 21 is provided with a first limiting portion 3, and the second connecting portion 22 is provided with a second limiting portion 4, and the first limiting portion 3 and the second limiting portion 4 cooperate with each other to limit the relative movement of the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 in the first direction y, and the first direction is perpendicular to the thickness direction x of the first connecting portion 21.

[0065] The housing 12 can be used to contain electrolytes, such as electrolytes. The housing 12 can be in various structural forms, such as a cuboid. For example, the shape of the housing 12 can be determined according to the specific shape of the electrode assembly 11. If the electrode assembly 11 is a cylindrical structure, a cylindrical housing 12 can be selected. The housing 12 can be made of various materials, such as copper, iron, aluminum, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, plastic, etc.

[0066] The electrode assembly 11 may include a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet and a separator, and the separator is used to insulate and isolate the positive electrode sheet from the negative electrode sheet. The electrode assembly 11 may be a laminated structure, a wound structure or other structures.

[0067] The electrode lead-out member is used to electrically connect the electrode assembly to an external circuit to realize charging and discharging of the electrode assembly. Exemplarily, the electrode lead-out member 123 can be configured as a positive electrode terminal or a negative electrode terminal, which is used to electrically connect to the electrode assembly 11 to output the electrical energy generated by the electrode assembly 11.

[0068] The first limiting portion 3 and the second limiting portion 4 can be a recess matching structure, a snap-fit ​​structure or other structures.

[0069] The first connection part 21 and the second connection part 22 can be an integrated structure or a split structure. For example, the connection component 2 is bent, and the parts located on both sides of the fold are the first connection part 21 and the second connection part 22 respectively.

[0070] The thickness direction of the first connecting portion 21 is Figure 5 When the battery cell is a cylindrical battery cell, the thickness direction of the first connecting portion 21 is the axial direction of the cylindrical battery cell.

[0071] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 7for Figure 6 In the cross-sectional structural diagram along the AA direction, the first direction y is perpendicular to the thickness direction x of the first connecting portion 21 . When the battery cell is a cylindrical battery cell, the first direction is the radial direction of the cylindrical battery cell.

[0072] By providing the first limiting portion 3 and the second limiting portion 4, the relative displacement in the first direction y in the connecting component 2 is reduced, the possibility of the connecting component 2 breaking is reduced, and the battery safety is improved.

[0073] Optionally, after the first connection portion 21 and the second connection portion 22 are bent, they are stacked in the thickness direction x of either the first connection portion 21 or the second connection portion 22 .

[0074] In some embodiments, the housing 12 may include a shell 121 and an end cap 122, wherein the shell 121 is a hollow structure with an opening on one side, and the end cap 122 covers the opening of the shell 121 and forms a sealed connection to form a sealed space for accommodating the electrode assembly 11 and the electrolyte, and the positive electrode terminal and the negative electrode terminal are installed on the end cap 122.

[0076] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, Figure 8 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of a connecting component in a folded state provided by another embodiment of the present application. Fig. 9 A schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of a folded state of a connecting component provided for another embodiment of the present application. In some optional embodiments of the present application, one of the first limiting portion 3 and the second limiting portion 4 includes a receiving portion, and the other includes a first convex portion, and the first convex portion is at least partially received in the receiving portion. By setting the first limiting portion 3 and the second limiting portion 4 as the receiving portion or the first convex portion, the first limiting portion 3 and the second limiting portion 4 can be matched in a concave-convex manner to achieve limiting in the first direction, and the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 are mutually limited.

[0077] Optionally, the first position-limiting portion 3 is configured as a receiving portion, and the second position-limiting portion 4 is configured as a first convex portion. Optionally, the first position-limiting portion 3 is configured as a first convex portion, and the second position-limiting portion 4 is configured as a receiving portion.

[0078] Optionally, refer to Figure 7 The first limiting portion 3 is configured as a groove provided on the surface of the first connecting portion 21 and recessed toward the side away from the second connecting portion 22 in the thickness direction x. The second limiting portion 4 is configured as a protrusion structure provided on the second connecting portion 22 and capable of being inserted into the aforementioned groove.

[0079] Optionally, refer to Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The first limiting portion 3 is configured as a through hole that passes through both sides of the first connecting portion 21 in the thickness direction x, and the second limiting portion 4 is configured as a columnar structure that is arranged on the second connecting portion 22 and can be inserted into the aforementioned through hole.

[0080] As shown in some optional embodiments of the present application, the receiving portion includes a groove or a through hole. By setting the receiving portion as a groove or a through hole, it is not only easy to shape the receiving portion, but also enables the first protrusion to be more firmly limited to the receiving portion.

[0081] like Fig.10 As shown, Fig.10 A schematic diagram of the dimensions of the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion when the connecting component is folded in an embodiment of the present application. In some optional embodiments of the present application, a notch 31 is provided on the side wall of the receiving portion, and the size L1 of the notch 31 is smaller than the size L2 of the first convex portion. By setting the size of the notch 31 to be smaller than the size of the first convex portion, it is possible to prevent the first convex portion from detaching from the receiving portion through the notch 31, causing the problem of limiting failure.

[0082] Reference Figure 5 In some optional embodiments of the present application, the groove is in a closed shape. By setting the groove in a closed shape, the first convex portion can be stably arranged in the connecting portion, thereby improving the limiting effect of the accommodating portion on the first convex portion.

[0083] Optionally, on a plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the first protrusion, the first protrusion may be a closed circle or a closed square, and on a plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the groove or the through hole, the groove or the through hole may be a closed circle or a closed square.

[0084] like Figure 7 and Fig.11 As shown, Fig.11 A schematic diagram of the structure of an accommodating portion provided in an embodiment of the present application. In some optional embodiments of the present application, the side wall of the accommodating portion includes a first guide surface 32, and the side wall of the first convex portion includes a second guide surface 41, and the first guide surface 32 and the second guide surface 41 are correspondingly arranged in the accommodating portion. By providing the first guide surface 32 and the second guide surface 41, it is convenient for the first convex portion to enter the accommodating portion, and the limiting effect of the accommodating portion on the first convex portion is ensured.

[0085] Reference Fig.11Optionally, the first guide surface 32 is a side wall in the first direction y and / or the second direction z in the accommodating portion, and the first guide surface 32 is inclined. Exemplarily, in the thickness direction, the top end of the first guide surface 32 is inclined toward the side away from the inside of the accommodating portion, the second direction z is perpendicular to the first direction y and the thickness direction x, and the first guide surface 32 cooperates with the second guide surface 41 to make the passing area of ​​the top end of the accommodating portion larger than the passing area of ​​the bottom end of the accommodating portion, so as to facilitate the first protrusion to enter the accommodating portion.

[0086] like Figure 5 , Figures 7 and 8 As shown, in some optional embodiments of the present application, the first connection part 21 includes a first main body 211 and a second protrusion 212, the second protrusion 212 protrudes from the surface of the first main body 211 facing the second connection part 22, and at least part of the first limiting part 3 is arranged on the second protrusion 212. By providing the second protrusion 212, the first connection part 21 can be raised toward the second connection part 22, shortening the relative distance between the first protrusion and the accommodation part, and facilitating the connection between the first protrusion and the accommodation part. Secondly, after the first connection part 21 and the second connection part 22 are bent, a gap will be formed between the first connection part 21 and the second connection part 22 due to the bending angle, and the second protrusion 212 can also effectively make up for the gap, thereby improving the stability of the first protrusion and the accommodation part after being limited.

[0087] For example, refer to Figure 7 The second protrusion 212 can be separated from the first body 211, and the second protrusion 212 is fixed to the first body 211 by welding, gluing, etc. For example, referring to Figure 8 The second protrusion 212 can be integrally formed with the first body 211 .

[0088] In some optional embodiments of the present application, refer to Figure 7 The first limiting portion 3 includes a groove, which is formed by being recessed from the end surface of the second convex portion 212 facing the second connecting portion 22. By arranging the opening of the groove at the top of the second convex portion 212, the relative distance between the first convex portion and the groove can be shortened, making it easier for the first convex portion to enter the groove.

[0089] Optionally, the groove and the first protrusion may be formed by stamping the first connection portion 21 and the second connection portion 22 .
