Therefore, the working safety of the battery cells is the basis for ensuring the safety of the battery and thus the safety of new energy equipment and devices or energy storage systems.
[0003] Existing lithium battery overheating usually uses a temperature fuse to implement overheat protection for the battery cell. Although this protection method is effective, it is impossible to know which lithium battery cell has a problem.
[0004] Therefore, in view of the above problems, the present invention proposes a lithium battery cell with reduced overheating risk. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the problem that the existing lithium battery overheats because the temperature fuse is often used to implement overheat protection of the battery core.

[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0018] Reference Figures 1 to 3 A lithium battery cell with reduced overheating risk includes a lithium battery cell 3, wherein the positive and negative electrodes on the upper part of the lithium battery cell 3 are respectively overlapped with series metal sheets 301 for transmitting current, and an overheating protection mechanism is provided between the lithium battery cells 3 and the lithium battery cells 3.
[0019] Preferably: the overheat protection mechanism comprises: a connecting plate 1, a plurality of mounting holes 102 are arranged inside the connecting plate 1, a lithium battery cell 3 which can slide up and down is placed in each mounting hole 102, a plurality of legs 101 are fixedly arranged in an integrated manner at the lower part of the connecting plate 1, and the mounting position of the legs 101 is located on both sides of the mounting hole 102, a deformable support sheet 2 is arranged in the middle part of each leg 101, the lithium battery cell 3 is placed on the upper part of the support sheet 2, and the support force is given by the support sheet 2, the mounting position height of the support sheet 2 is lower than the height of the connecting plate 1, a visual sensor is fixedly installed on the leg 101, and is electrically connected to an external control system, so as to observe whether the lithium battery cell 3 slides down, the support sheet 2 is L-shaped, one end of which is fixedly installed in the leg 101 by screws, and a lithium battery cell 3 is placed on the upper part of the other end, and the support sheet 2 is made of The thermal bimetallic strip will bend downward when heated. Under normal conditions, the thermal bimetallic strip will not bend at the temperature generated by normal use of the lithium battery. When the lithium battery cell 3 is overheated during use, the lithium battery cell 3 with a larger amount of heat will transfer the heat to the lower support sheet 2 for support. Since the support sheet 2 is composed of a thermal bimetallic strip that bends downward when heated, when the support sheet 2 bends when heated, the lithium battery cell 3 originally supported will slide down along the mounting hole 102 directly and fall onto the heat conducting plate 2 104 due to the bending of the support sheet 2. In addition, due to the sliding of the lithium battery cell 3, the originally overlapped series metal sheets A will also disconnect. At this time, while ensuring that other lithium battery cells 3 continue to work, a single lithium battery cell 3 with an overheating problem is isolated.
[0020] Preferably: a plurality of vertical heat conducting plates 103 are fixedly installed between the mounting holes 102 and the mounting holes 102 provided inside the connecting plate 1, and a horizontal heat conducting plate 2 104 is integrally fixedly connected to the lower part of the heat conducting plate 103, and a heat dissipation fin 105 is bonded to the lower part of the heat conducting plate 2 104 with silicone grease, and the installation height of the heat conducting plate 2 104 is lower than the installation height of the lithium battery cell 3, and the heat conducting plate 2 104 and the heat conducting plate 1 103 are made of alumina ceramics with good insulation performance and strong thermal conductivity. The left and right sides of the heat conducting plate 1 103 are in contact with the lithium battery cell 3 respectively, and by providing the heat conducting plate 1 103 and the heat conducting plate 2 104 between the lithium battery cell 3 and the lithium battery cell 3, when the lithium battery cell 3 generates heat, a large amount of heat can be introduced into the heat conducting plate 1 103 and the heat conducting plate 2 104, and then an external fan is used for auxiliary cooling.
[0021] Preferably, one side of the heat dissipation fin 105 can be used in conjunction with an existing heat dissipation fan for cooling.
[0022] Working principle:
[0023] When the lithium battery cell 3 is overheated during use, the lithium battery cell 3 with greater heat will transfer the heat to the support sheet 2 at the bottom. Since the support sheet 2 is composed of a thermal bimetallic sheet that bends downward when heated, when the support sheet 2 bends due to heat, the lithium battery cell 3 originally supported will slide down along the mounting hole 102 and fall onto the heat conducting plate 2 104 due to the bending of the support sheet 2. In addition, due to the sliding of the lithium battery cell 3, the originally overlapped series metal sheet A will also be disconnected, thereby ensuring that the other lithium battery cells 3 continue to work. When the lithium battery cell 3 has an overheating problem, a single lithium battery cell 3 with an overheating problem is isolated, and the visual sensor can be used to inform the user which specific lithium battery cell 3 has a problem. In addition, by providing a heat conducting plate 103 and a heat conducting plate 2 104 between the lithium battery cells 3, when the lithium battery cells 3 generate heat, a large amount of heat can be introduced into the heat conducting plate 103 and the heat conducting plate 2 104, and then an external fan is used to assist in cooling. In addition, the lithium battery cells 3 that fall onto the heat conducting plate 2 104 can also directly contact the heat conducting plate 2 104 better, thereby increasing the heat conduction area and facilitating faster heat dissipation.
