[0051] Optionally, the cross-sectional shape of the receiving cavity 20 in the vertical height direction Z can be square, rectangular, circular, etc., without specific limitation.

[0053] Optionally, the first surface 10 is a plane, and the first surface 10 is arranged perpendicular to the height direction Z to facilitate the assembly of the spacer 100 and the battery cell.

[0054] Optionally, the extension path of the first section 31 can be any one of a straight line, a folded line and a curve. When the first section 31 extends along a straight line, the first direction is the extension direction of the straight line; when the first section 31 extends along a folded line or a curve, the first direction can be considered as the direction of the line connecting the center points of the openings at both ends of the first section 31.

The battery device includes a battery cell and a tab 200 located at at least one end of the battery cell, but the tab 200 is thin and easy to deform. The current solution is to set a spacer 100 on the tab 200 to fix the tab 200. As an important component of the battery device, the spacer 100 can improve the bending deformation of the tab 200, isolate the tab 200 from the outer shell of the battery device, and prevent the two from contacting each other, resulting in poor shell pressure, or even short circuit.

[0060] The existing spacer 100 is a symmetrical structure, the contact surface of the tab 200 and the spacer 100 is perpendicular to the cover plate (that is, the tab 200 extends into the receiving cavity 20 along the height direction Z), and the tab 200 is vertically inserted into the receiving channel 30 of the spacer 100. During assembly, the tab 200 needs to be connected to the lead-out piece 300 of the cover plate, so the tab 200 needs to have a certain length. After the cover plate is welded to the shell of the battery device, the tab 200 needs to be overlapped and bent to be accommodated in the receiving cavity 20. At this time, the bending angle of the tab 200 near the spacer 100 is nearly 180°, which poses a risk of breakage.

[0063] Optionally, the receiving channel 30 may include a second section 32, a third section 33, a fourth section, etc. in addition to the first section 31, and there is no specific limitation. The first section 31, the second section 32, the third section 33, the fourth section, etc. are sequentially connected to form the receiving channel 30, and the extension path of each section may be any one of a straight line, a broken line, and a curve, and the receiving channel 30 is any one or a combination of a straight line, a broken line, and a curve.

[0065] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The receiving channel 30 includes a first section 31 and a second section 32 . The first section 31 and the second section 32 both extend along a curve. The second section 32 is connected to the first section 31 and passes through the first surface 10 .

[0066] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The receiving channel 30 includes a first section 31, a second section 32 and a third section 33 connected in sequence, the third section 33 is connected to the first surface 10, the second section 32 connects an end of the first section 31 away from the receiving cavity 20 and an end of the third section 33 away from the first surface 10, wherein the first section 31 and the third section 33 both extend along a straight line, and the second section 32 extends along a curve.

[0067] By setting the extension path of the receiving channel 30 to be any one or a combination of a straight line, a broken line and a curve, it can meet the folding requirements of the tabs 200 of different lengths and expand the application range.

[0079] Optionally, the value of the first angle α and the value of the second angle β also satisfy: 0°≤|α-β|≤10°, so as to avoid a large difference between the value of the first angle α and the value of the second angle β, which would cause the first mounting portion 40 and the second mounting portion 50 to interfere with each other and prevent the tab 200 from passing through.

[0080] Optionally, the difference between the value of the first angle α and the value of the second angle β may be 0°, 3°, 5°, 6°, etc., without specific limitation.

[0081] By setting the first mounting surface 41 to have a first angle α with the first direction, satisfying: 20°≤α≤70°, and the second mounting surface 51 to have a second angle β with the first direction, satisfying: 20°≤β≤70°, and 0°≤|α-β|≤10°, when the tab 200 extends from the receiving channel 30 into the receiving cavity 20, the width of the receiving channel 30 is not too narrow to hinder the passage of the tab 200, and the first section 31 provides a certain inclination angle, which can reduce the bending degree of the tab 200 and reduce the risk of breakage.

The first plate body 60 is connected to the side of the first mounting portion 40 away from the first surface 10, and the second plate body 70 is connected to the side of the second mounting portion 50 away from the first surface 10. The first plate body 60 and the second plate body 70 enclose a receiving cavity 20, and at least a part of the pole ear 200 is received in the receiving cavity 20. The spacer 100 can reduce the movement and bumping of the pole ear 200, protect the pole ear 200, and improve the stability of the battery.

[0100] The following describes an assembly process of the spacer 100 in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0101] Optionally, the spacer 100 includes a first spacer and a second spacer, the first spacer includes a first plate 60 and a first mounting portion 40, and the second spacer includes a second plate 70 and a second mounting portion 50. The first spacer and the second spacer are butted in the width direction Y of the spacer 100, and the tab 200 is suitable for passing through the receiving channel 30 formed between the first spacer and the second spacer.

[0102] When assembling the battery device, first pre-weld the tab 200 with the battery cell, and then weld the tab 200 with the lead-out tab 300 of the cover plate. Then install and dock the first spacer and the second spacer, press the cover plate down toward the battery cell, and weld and fix it with the outer shell of the battery device to complete the assembly of the battery device.

[0103] In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship of terms such as "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside" and "outside" are based on the orientation or positional relationship described in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the referred device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0104] The above disclosure is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and certainly cannot be used to limit the scope of rights of the present invention. Ordinary technicians in this field can understand that all or part of the processes of the above embodiment and equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
