For traditional square aluminum shell batteries, the assembly structure of the top cover and the core is generally from bottom to top, the core, the pole ear, the connecting piece, and the bottom surface of the pole column of the top cover, where the connecting piece connects the pole ear and the bottom surface of the pole column of the top cover respectively, but the pole column passes through the lower plastic and the bottom surface of the pole column is usually higher than the lower plastic, that is, from the height direction, there is a certain distance between the bottom surface of the pole column and the lower plastic. According to the traditional assembly position, this part of the space cannot be effectively utilized. It is necessary to reserve a large space between the core and the cover plate for assembly during assembly, and the bending amplitude of the pole ear is large, the pole ear is easy to collapse the diaphragm, and the bending pokes into the end surface of the core, which is easy to cause a short circuit.

There is a certain distance in height between the bottom surface of the pole and the lower plastic. During assembly, a large space needs to be reserved between the winding core and the cover plate for assembly. In addition, the bending amplitude of the pole ear is large, and the pole ear is easy to collapse the diaphragm. The bending may poke into the end surface of the winding core, which may easily cause a short circuit. Summary of the invention

[0022] A square aluminum shell battery top cover and winding core assembly structure, including a top cover 1 and a winding core 2, the top cover 1 includes a top cover substrate 1.1 and a pole 1.2 and a lower plastic 1.3 installed on the top cover substrate 1.1, the pole 1.2 includes a positive pole 1.2.1 and a negative pole 1.2.2, the number of the winding cores 2 is two, the two winding cores 2 are respectively provided with a positive pole ear 2.1 and a negative pole ear 2.2, the connecting piece 3 includes a positive pole connecting piece 3.1 and a negative pole connecting piece 3.2, the positive pole ear 2.1 and the bottom surface of the positive pole 1.2.1 are respectively connected to the upper surface of the positive pole connecting piece 3.1, the negative pole ear 2.2 and the bottom surface of the negative pole 1.2.2 are respectively connected to the upper surface of the negative pole connecting piece 3.2.

[0023] The pole 1.2 passes through the lower plastic 1.3 and there is a distance between the bottom surface of the pole 1.2 and the bottom surface of the lower plastic 1.3. The distance between the bottom surface of the pole 1.2 and the bottom surface of the lower plastic 1.3 is equal to the thickness of the pole ear (wherein, the thickness of the positive pole ear 2.1 and the negative pole ear 2.2 is the larger one). The positive electrode connecting sheet 3.1 and the negative electrode connecting sheet 3.2 both include an ultrasonic welding portion 4.1 and a laser welding portion 4.2 formed by protruding from one end of the ultrasonic welding portion 4.1, that is, the ultrasonic welding portion 4.1 and the laser welding portion 4.2 are stepped.

[0024] The positive electrode connecting sheet 3.1 includes an ultrasonic welding portion 4.1 connected to the positive electrode tab 2.1 and a laser welding portion 4.2 connected to the bottom surface of the positive electrode column 1.2.1.

[0025] The negative electrode connecting sheet 3.2 includes an ultrasonic welding portion 4.1 connected to the negative electrode ear 2.2 and a laser welding portion 4.2 connected to the bottom surface of the negative electrode column 1.2.2.

[0026] An assembly process of a square aluminum shell battery top cover and a winding core includes the following steps:

[0027] Step 1: Place the positive electrode connecting sheet 3.1 on the fixture, place the positive electrode ears 2.1 of the two winding cores 2 above the positive electrode connecting sheet 3.1 and at the ultrasonic welding part 4.1, and fix the positive electrode ears 2.1 of the winding core 2 to the positive electrode connecting sheet 3.1 through ultrasonic welding.

[0028] Step 2: Place the negative electrode connecting sheet 3.2 on the fixture, place the negative electrode ears 2.2 of the two winding cores 2 above the negative electrode connecting sheet 3.2 and at the ultrasonic welding part 4.1, and fix the negative electrode ears 2.2 of the winding core 2 to the negative electrode connecting sheet 3.2 by ultrasonic welding; the structural diagram of the connection between the winding core 2 and the connecting sheet is shown in FIG. Figure 3 shown.

[0029] Step 3: Turn over the winding core 2 connected to the positive electrode connecting sheet 3.1 and the negative electrode connecting sheet 3.2 as a whole, so that the positive electrode connecting sheet 3.1 and the negative electrode connecting sheet 3.2 are located at the top.

[0030] Step 4: Place the bottom surface of the positive electrode column 1.2.1 in the top cover 1 on one side of the positive electrode connecting piece 3.1 on the same surface as the positive electrode ear 2.1 and located at the laser welding portion 4.2, and fix the bottom surface of the positive electrode column 1.2.1 on the positive electrode connecting piece 3.1 by laser welding.

Figure 4 As shown, the specific angle is related to the reserved length of the pole ear, the thickness of the winding core, etc., and can be adjusted accordingly, so that when the pole ear is shorter, the laser can also pass through the winding core 2 to weld the positive connecting piece 3.1 and the negative connecting piece 3.2 to the bottom surface of the pole in the top cover 1 respectively. Specifically, when the winding core is unfolded and the connecting piece is clamped, the pole ear will not be torn off and the laser can pass through to achieve welding.

[0033] Step 6: Flip the two cores 2 60 degrees along the top cover 1 and fit them together. Turn the assembled square aluminum shell battery top cover and core over as a whole to obtain a structure in which the core 2, the connecting piece 3, the pole ear, and the pole 1.2 of the top cover 1 are arranged from bottom to top. The cross-sectional view of the top cover and core assembly structure is shown in the figure. Figure 1 As shown, the exploded view of the top cover and the winding core assembly structure is shown in Figure 5.
