[0070] Lithium-ion batteries are developing rapidly, especially lithium-ion batteries used as automotive power batteries. Lithium batteries are a type of battery that uses lithium metal or lithium alloy as positive / negative electrode materials and non-aqueous electrolyte solutions. Lithium batteries are divided into lithium metal batteries and lithium-ion batteries. Among them, lithium-ion batteries do not contain metallic lithium and are rechargeable. They mainly rely on the movement of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes to work, that is, during the charging and discharging process, Li+ is embedded and de-embedded back and forth between the two electrodes: when charging, Li+ is de-embedded from the positive electrode and embedded in the negative electrode through the electrolyte (or electrolyte), and the negative electrode is in a lithium-rich state; the opposite is true during discharge.
[0071] In the production process of lithium-ion batteries, workers need to add electrolyte into the lithium-ion battery through the injection hole and then seal the hole. However, in the related art, the outer periphery of the injection hole is directly welded and sealed. Since electrolyte is likely to remain on the outer periphery of the hole, welding will cause the electrolyte to vaporize and expand due to heat, and then form a welding explosion point at the end of welding, affecting the air tightness of the welding.
[0072] Therefore, the present application provides a battery cell, which provides a first seal and a second seal, so that the first seal is inserted into the injection hole to seal the injection hole, and then the second seal is inserted into the first sealing groove from the side of the second sealing groove to limit the first seal, and the second seal is limited on the outer shell at the same time, thereby completing the sealing of the injection hole. There is no need to weld the outer periphery of the injection hole to reduce the probability of forming an explosion point due to welding gasification, which is beneficial to improving the sealing of the injection hole.
[0073] Specifically, the embodiment of the present application provides a battery cell 1110, which refers to the smallest unit constituting the battery device 1100. Each battery cell 1110 may be a secondary battery cell 1110 or a primary battery cell 1110; it may also be a lithium-sulfur battery cell, a sodium-ion battery cell, or a magnesium-ion battery cell, but is not limited thereto. The battery cell 1110 may be cylindrical, flat, rectangular, or in other shapes.
[0074] Each battery cell 1110 includes one or more electrode assemblies 1115. The electrode assembly 1115 can be understood as a bare cell in the battery cell 1110. The electrode assembly 1115 is accommodated in the housing 1111 and is electrically connected to the pole. After the electrode assembly 1115 is accommodated in the housing 1111, the electrolyte can be poured into the interior of the housing 1111 through the injection hole 11115, and then the opening of the injection hole 11115 is sealed.
[0075] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 3-8As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a battery cell 1110, the battery cell 1110 includes a shell 1111, a first sealing member 1112 and a second sealing member 1113, wherein the shell 1111 has an accommodating cavity 11111 inside, the shell 1111 has an assembly surface 11112, the assembly surface 11112 has a first sealing groove 11113 and a second sealing groove 11114, both of which have a groove depth along a first direction X, in a second direction Y, the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 are interlinked, and the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 are interlinked. A direction X is perpendicular to a second direction Y, and a bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113 has a liquid injection hole 11115 connected to the accommodating cavity 11111; the first sealing member 1112 is inserted into the liquid injection hole 11115 and seals the liquid injection hole 11115; the second sealing member 1113 is inserted into the first sealing groove 11113 along the second direction Y through the second sealing groove 11114, and in the first direction X, the second sealing member 1113 is limited in the first sealing groove 11113, and the second sealing member 1113 abuts against the first sealing member 1112 for limiting the position.
[0076] For the housing 1111, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the housing 1111 may include two parts, namely, a first part 11117 and a second part 11118, the first part 11117 and the second part 11118 cover each other, and the first part 11117 and the second part 11118 jointly define a housing for accommodating the electrode assembly 1115. The second part 11118 may be a hollow structure with one end open, the first part 11117 may be a plate-like structure, the first part 11117 covers the open side of the second part 11118, so that the first part 11117 and the second part 11118 jointly define the accommodating cavity 11111; the first part 11117 and the second part 11118 may also both be hollow structures with one side open, and the open side of the first part 11117 covers the open side of the second part 11118. Of course, the housing 1111 formed by the first part 11117 and the second part 11118 may be in various shapes, such as a cylinder, a cuboid, etc.
[0077] It should be noted that the assembly surface 11112, the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 can be arranged on the first part 11117, or the assembly surface 11112, the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 can also be arranged on the second part 11118, that is, the first seal 1112 and the second seal 1113 can be connected to the first part 11117, or the first seal 1112 and the second seal 1113 can also be connected to the second part 11118.
[0078] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, an assembly surface 11112 is formed on the shell 1111, and the assembly surface 11112 can be a part of the surface of the shell 1111, and a first sealing groove 11113 and a second sealing groove 11114 are opened on the assembly surface 11112, and the groove depth directions of the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 are both along the first direction X. It can be seen that the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 are arranged side by side in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, that is, the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 are arranged side by side in the second direction Y, and the second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction X. The first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 are penetrated in the second direction Y, and a through opening 11119 is formed at the position where the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 are penetrated. The through opening 11119 is the entrance for the second sealing component 1113 to be inserted into the first sealing groove 11113. Therefore, it can be known that the second sealing component 1113 can enter the first sealing groove 11113 along the second direction Y from the second sealing groove 11114.
[0079] Combination Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the injection hole 11115 is a channel for the electrolyte to enter the accommodating cavity 11111 of the shell 1111. The injection hole 11115 is opened at the bottom of the first sealing groove 11113. The injection hole 11115 passes through the bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113 to the accommodating cavity 11111.
[0080] Reference Figure 8-10 As shown, for the first sealing member 1112, the first sealing member 1112 is inserted into the injection hole 11115 to block and seal the opening of the injection hole 11115. Therefore, it can be known that the first sealing member 1112 and the injection hole 11115 can be inserted in an interference fit manner.
[0081] The second seal 1113 can be inserted into the first seal groove 11113 and limited in the first seal groove 11113. The second seal 1113 can abut and limit the first seal 1112 in the first seal groove 11113, so that the first seal 1112 is not easy to fall out of the injection hole 11115. Therefore, it can be known that the second seal 1113 abuts against the end position of the main control exposed outside the first seal 1112, and limits the first seal 1112 in the direction of falling out of the injection hole 11115.
[0082] Since the second sealing groove 11114 is interlinked with the first sealing groove 11113, the second sealing member 1113 is inserted into the first sealing groove 11113 from the second sealing groove 11114. It can be seen that the second sealing member 1113 is inserted into the first sealing groove 11113 from the side by side by side plugging. The side plugging method makes the structure of the second sealing member 1113 simpler, and the second sealing member 1113 can enter the first sealing groove 11113 without designing a complex elastic telescopic structure, which is conducive to simplifying the structure of the second sealing member 1113.
[0083] In this embodiment, the first sealing member 1112 is inserted into the injection hole 11115 to seal the injection hole 11115, and the second sealing member 1113 is inserted into the first sealing groove 11113 from the lateral second sealing groove 11114 to abut against the first sealing member 1112 to limit the first sealing member 1112, so that the first sealing member 1112 is not easy to fall out of the injection hole 11115. At the same time, the second sealing member 1113 is limited in the first sealing groove 11113, so that the limiting of the first sealing member 1112 by the second sealing member 1113 is more firm and reliable, thereby reducing the risk of the first sealing member 1112 falling out of the injection hole 11115; furthermore, the limiting of the first sealing member 1112 by the second sealing member 1113 makes it unnecessary to weld the first sealing member 1112 and the injection hole 11115, so that the problem of welding explosion point is not easy to occur, thereby reducing the risk of sealing failure.
[0084] In some embodiments, reference Figure 8 As shown, the battery cell 1110 further includes a fixing structure 1114 , and the fixing structure 1114 is connected between the second sealing member 1113 and the housing 1111 .
[0085] Specifically, the fixing structure 1114 is used to limit and fix the second sealing member 1113 on the housing 1111. For example, the fixing structure 1114 may be a riveted structure, a bolted structure, a snap-fit structure, or a bolted structure.
[0086] After the second sealing member 1113 is connected to the outer shell 1111 through the fixing structure 1114, a detachable connection or a fixed connection can be realized between the second sealing member 1113 and the outer shell 1111. The second sealing member 1113 can be detached from the outer shell 1111, or the second sealing member 1113 can be connected to the outer shell 1111 to form an integral structure.
[0087] In this embodiment, by adding the fixing structure 1114 , the reliability of the connection between the second sealing member 1113 and the housing 1111 is improved, thereby improving the sealing reliability of the first sealing member 1112 to the injection hole 11115 .
[0088] In some embodiments, the second sealing member 1113 is fixed to the housing 1111 by welding.
[0089] Specifically, the second sealing member 1113 and the outer shell 1111 are fixed by welding, and the welding position is at the connection position between the second sealing member 1113 and the outer shell 1111. For example, the end of the second sealing member 1113 away from the first sealing member 1112 is welded between the outer shell 1111, so that the welding position is away from the opening of the injection hole 11115, thereby reducing the risk of the welding position touching the electrolyte, thereby reducing the occurrence of welding explosion point problems and improving the reliability of the seal.
[0090] In this embodiment, the second sealing member 1113 and the outer shell 1111 are further fixed by welding, which is beneficial to improve the reliability of the connection between the second sealing member 1113 and the outer shell 1111, and further improve the sealing reliability of the first sealing member 1112 to the injection hole 11115.
[0091] In some embodiments, reference Figure 7-10 As shown, a first limiting structure 11120 is connected to the groove wall of the first sealing groove 11113, and a second limiting structure 11131 is connected to the second sealing member 1113. In the second direction Y, the first limiting structure 11120 and the second limiting structure 11131 are plugged together.
[0092] It can be understood that the second sealing member 1113 and the housing 1111 are connected by means of plug-in limiting means, specifically, a first limiting structure 11120 is provided so that the first limiting structure 11120 is located on the groove wall of the first sealing groove 11113. The groove body shape of the first sealing groove 11113 can be rectangular, so it can be seen that the first sealing groove 11113 has two opposite groove walls, which are two opposite groove walls of the first sealing groove 11113 perpendicular to the first direction X and perpendicular to the second direction Y; therefore, one or two first limiting structures 11120 can be provided. When two first limiting structures 11120 are provided, the two first limiting structures 11120 can be respectively located on two opposite groove walls.
[0093] The second limiting structure 11131 is correspondingly arranged on the second sealing member 1113. The second sealing member 1113 is inserted into the first sealing groove 11113 through the through opening 11119. Two surfaces opposite to the groove wall of the first sealing groove 11113 are formed on the second sealing member 1113. One or both of the two surfaces are provided with the second limiting structure 11131. When the second sealing member 1113 is inserted into the first sealing groove 11113 through the through opening 11119 along the second direction Y, the first limiting structure 11120 and the second limiting structure 11131 are also plugged and matched in the second direction Y, so that the first limiting structure 11120 limits the second limiting structure 11131 in the first direction X, so that the second sealing member 1113 squeezes the first sealing member 1112 into the injection hole 11115.
[0094] In this embodiment, the first limiting structure 11120 and the second limiting structure 11131 are plugged together for limiting, which has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. While limiting, it also has the function of guiding the second sealing member 1113 to enter the first sealing groove 11113.
[0095] In some embodiments, reference Figure 7-10 As shown, any one of the first limiting structure 11120 and the second limiting structure 11131 is a groove structure, and the other is a protrusion structure. The notch of the groove structure extends along the second direction Y, and along the second direction Y, the protrusion structure is plugged into and matched with the groove structure.
[0096] One of the ways is that the first limiting structure 11120 is a groove structure, and correspondingly, the second limiting structure 11131 is a protrusion structure, the groove structure is opened on the groove wall of the first sealing groove 11113 and extends along the second direction Y, and the extended end of the groove structure located on the side of the through opening 11119 forms an insertion interface for the protrusion structure to enter; the protrusion structure protrudes from the surface of the second sealing member 1113, and the protrusion structure extends along the second direction Y to form a certain length, so that the protrusion structure is plugged into and matched with the groove structure through the insertion interface.
[0097] Another way is that the first limiting structure 11120 is a protruding structure, and correspondingly, the second limiting structure 11131 is a groove structure, the protruding structure protrudes from the groove wall of the first sealing groove 11113 and extends along the second direction Y, and the protruding structure extends along the second direction Y to form a certain length; the groove structure is opened on the surface of the second sealing member 1113, and an extended end of the groove structure forms an insertion interface for the protruding structure to enter, so that the protruding structure is plugged into and matched with the groove structure through the insertion interface.
[0098] The cross-sectional outer contours of the groove structure and the protrusion structure match each other. For example, the cross-sectional outer contours of the groove structure and the protrusion structure may be arc-shaped, polygonal, etc. For example, the cross-sectional outer contours of the groove structure and the protrusion structure may be a part of a circular contour, a part of a rectangular contour, a part of a trapezoidal contour, etc. For example, the groove structure is a rectangular groove, and the shape of the protrusion structure matches the rectangular groove and is plugged into and matched with the rectangular groove.
[0099] The raised structure may be a continuously extending strip structure, with the length of the raised structure matching that of the groove structure; or, the raised structure may be an intermittent, non-continuous structure, with a spacing space formed between two adjacent raised structures, to reduce material usage and reduce the overall weight of the raised structure.
[0100] In this embodiment, the layout positions of the groove structure and the protrusion structure are more flexible and can be adaptively selected according to the convenience of actual processing. The groove structure and the protrusion structure are plugged into each other, which not only limits the position but also has a guiding function, and the connection is convenient and reliable.
[0101] In some embodiments, reference Fig. 9 As shown, the groove structure is a dovetail groove, and the shape of the protrusion structure matches the dovetail groove and is plugged into and matched with the dovetail groove.
[0102] The dovetail groove is a groove structure that is inclined relative to the groove wall, and the groove walls on both sides are reduced and approached at the groove opening. Correspondingly, the cross-sectional outer contour shape of the protruding structure should match the cross-sectional outer contour shape of the dovetail groove.
[0103] The dovetail groove is used as the guiding and limiting groove structure. On the one hand, it can improve the accuracy and stability of the guide and reduce vibration and shaking noise; on the other hand, it can also save the space occupied by the grooving and improve space utilization.
[0104] Regarding the shape of the second sealing member 1113, the second sealing member 1113 may be in a cubic shape, and the surface of the second sealing member 1113 is a combination of multiple planes. Of course, the second sealing member 1113 may also be in a columnar shape with an arc-shaped surface. Fig.16 and Fig.17 As shown, in some embodiments, the second sealing member 1113 extends in a columnar shape along the first direction X, and the surface of the second sealing member 1113 on the side of the groove bottom surface facing away from the first sealing groove 11113 is in a semicircular arc shape, and the second sealing member 1113 forms a protruding structure at two edges perpendicular to the first direction X; the two opposite groove walls of the first sealing groove 11113 match the protruding structure to form a groove structure.
[0105] Specifically, the second sealing member 1113 extends in a columnar shape along the first direction X, and the surface of the second sealing member 1113 forms two surface areas, one area is a plane area, and the plane area is arranged opposite to and parallel to the bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113, and the other area is a curved area, which is the surface of the second sealing member 1113 on the side facing away from the bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113, and the curved area is semicircular, and a protruding structure is formed at the edge of the curved area of the second sealing member 1113.
[0106] When the second sealing member 1113 is inserted into the first sealing groove 11113, the raised structure is the portion that matches, contacts and fits with the first sealing groove 11113. Therefore, the two relative groove walls of the first sealing groove 11113 are matched with the raised structure to form a groove structure. It can be seen that the upper groove wall of the groove structure is also semicircular in shape to match the upper surface of the raised structure, so that the groove structure forms a limit on the raised structure along the first direction X.
[0107] In this embodiment, the purpose of limiting the second seal 1113 is achieved by forming a semicircular curved surface on the side surface of the second seal 1113 facing away from the bottom surface of the first seal groove 11113 and matching the groove wall of the first seal groove 11113.
[0108] Reference Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, in some embodiments, an end of the second sealing member 1113 close to the second sealing groove 11114 is provided with an outwardly convex or inwardly concave positioning structure 11132 .
[0109] The positioning structure 11132 may be an outwardly convex structure or an inwardly concave structure. For example, the positioning structure 11132 may be a groove structure provided on the surface of the second sealing member 1113 , or the positioning structure 11132 may be an outwardly convex structure provided on the surface of the second sealing member 1113 .
[0110] The positioning structure 11132 is the point of action for external force to act on the second sealing member 1113 to move the second sealing member 1113, which is convenient for the operator to grasp and position the second sealing member 1113. Therefore, it can be understood that the positioning structure 11132 should be located at one end of the second sealing member 1113 close to the second sealing groove 11114, and the positioning structure 11132 can also be exposed in the second sealing groove 11114, so that the external force can directly act on the positioning structure 11132, so that the second sealing member 1113 can smoothly enter and exit the first sealing groove 11113.
[0111] In this embodiment, a positioning structure 11132 is provided on the second sealing member 1113 to facilitate quick installation and removal of the second sealing member 1113 .
[0112] Reference Figure 8-12 As shown, in some embodiments, the first sealing member 1112 includes a column 11121 and a cap body 11122 connected to one end of the column 11121, the column 11121 is inserted into the injection hole 11115 and has an interference fit with the injection hole 11115, and the cap body 11122 abuts against the bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113; the second sealing member 1113 abuts against the cap body 11122.
[0113] The column 11121 and the cap 11122 are fixedly or detachably connected, for example, the column 11121 and the cap 11122 can be fixed by welding, bonding, or by a fastening assembly, or the column 11121 and the cap 11122 are an integrally formed structure. The column 11121 and the cap 11122 can be connected to form a T shape.
[0114] The column 11121 is inserted into the injection hole 11115 of the housing 1111 and is interference-fitted with the injection hole 11115 to seal the injection hole 11115. The cap body 11122 is exposed outside the injection hole 11115 and abuts against the surface around the opening of the injection hole 11115. The surface around the opening of the injection hole 11115 is the bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113, that is, the cap body 11122 abuts against the bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113.
[0115] The second sealing member 1113 is inserted into the first sealing groove 11113 and abuts against the cap body 11122 , so that the column 11121 is limited in the injection hole 11115 , and the cap body 11122 is limited and abuts against the bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113 .
[0116] In this embodiment, the cap body 11122 can limit the column 11121, making it difficult for the column 11121 to enter the accommodating cavity 11111 through the injection hole 11115. The cap body 11122 can also increase the contact area with the second sealing member 1113 to increase the squeezing force on the second sealing member 1113.
[0117] Reference Figure 8-10 As shown, in some embodiments, a recessed groove 11116 is formed on the bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113 , and the cap body 11122 matches the recessed groove 11116 and is plugged into and engaged with the recessed groove 11116 .
[0118] The outer diameter of the groove 11116 is larger than the outer diameter of the opening of the injection hole 11115, so that a shoulder structure is formed on the periphery of the injection hole 11115. When the second seal 1113 is connected to the injection hole 11115, the cap body 11122 can be accommodated in the groove 11116, thereby reducing the space occupied by the cap body 11122 in the first accommodating groove, which is beneficial to increase the thickness of the second seal 1113 and enhance the structural strength of the second seal 1113.
[0119] The outer contour of the recessed groove 11116 is matched with the outer contour of the cross section of the cap body 11122 to facilitate positioning and limiting the cap body 11122. The depth of the recessed groove 11116 can be less than or equal to the thickness of the cap body 11122, so that the cap body 11122 can form a portion protruding from the bottom surface of the first sealing groove 11113, so that the second sealing member 1113 can contact the cap body 11122.
[0120] In this embodiment, the groove 11116 is used to position and limit the cap body 11122, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the second sealing member 1113 and the injection hole 11115.
[0121] Reference Figure 8 and Fig.11 As shown, in some embodiments, the cap body 11122 forms a protruding outer convex portion 11125 outside the notch of the recess 11116 , and the second sealing member 1113 abuts against the outer convex portion 11125 .
[0122] Specifically, the bottom end of the cap body 11122 abuts against the bottom of the groove 11116, and the top end of the cap body 11122 protrudes outside the notch of the groove 11116, so that the top end of the cap body 11122 forms an outer protrusion 11125, which is used to directly abut against the second sealing member 1113.
[0123] Since the top of the cap body 11122 forms an outer protrusion 11125, it can be known that after the second seal 1113 is inserted into the first sealing groove 11113, the second seal 1113 will press the outer protrusion 11125, so that the cap body 11122 squeezes the bottom surface of the groove 11116, thereby enhancing the extrusion force between the cap body 11122 and the bottom surface of the groove, thereby improving the sealing effect.
[0124] In this embodiment, the outer protrusion 11125 protrudes outside the groove 11116, which makes it easier for the second sealing member 1113 to squeeze the cap body 11122, thereby improving the sealing effect.
[0125] In some embodiments, the cap body 11122 is elastic.
[0126] The cap body 11122 can be made of elastic material to make the cap body 11122 elastic. For example, the cap body 11122 can be made of rubber, silicone, polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride, polytetrafluoroethylene, elastic fiber and other materials.
[0127] The cap body 11122 has elastic fingers, and the cap body 11122 can be elastically deformed in a direction perpendicular to the depth of the groove 11116, so that when the second seal 1113 is squeezed against the cap body 11122, the cap body 11122 can be squeezed and elastically deformed, thereby reducing the looseness problem between the second seal 1113 and the cap body 11122 and allowing the second seal 1113 to maintain the squeezing force between the cap body 11122.
[0128] In this embodiment, the elastic cap body 11122 can improve the sealing performance of the liquid injection hole 11115.
[0129] Reference Figure 12-14 As shown, in some embodiments, the end of the column 11121 away from the cap body 11122 has an inserting surface 11123, and the inserting surface 11123 is a spherical surface.
[0130] The end of the column 11121 away from the cap body 11122 is the plug-in end of the column 11121, and the end face of the plug-in end is the plug-in surface 11123, so that the plug-in surface 11123 is a spherical surface, and the spherical surface is a smooth curved surface, so that the plug-in end can pass through the opening of the injection hole 11115 more smoothly, so as to reduce the interference problem between the plug-in end and the opening.
[0131] In this embodiment, the spherical plug-in end is more conducive to inserting the column 11121 into the injection hole 11115, so as to reduce the scratching problem on the hole mouth and hole wall of the injection hole 11115 and reduce the risk of sealing leakage.
[0132] In some embodiments, the column 11121 is an elastic column 11121.
[0133] The column 11121 can be made of elastic material to make the column 11121 elastic. For example, the column 11121 can be made of rubber, silicone, polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride, polytetrafluoroethylene, elastic fiber and other materials.
[0134] The column 11121 is elastic and may include the ability of the column 11121 to elastically deform in the diameter direction, so that after the column 11121 is inserted into the injection hole 11115, the hole wall of the injection hole 11115 can squeeze the outer cylindrical surface of the column 11121 to enhance the sealing between the column 11121 and the hole wall of the injection hole 11115.
[0135] The column 11121 is elastic and can also be elastically deformed in the length direction, so that when the second seal 1113 squeezes the cap body 11122, the column 11121 can be squeezed and elastically deformed, which is convenient for reducing the looseness problem between the second seal 1113 and the cap body 11122, so that the second seal 1113 maintains the squeezing force between the cap body 11122.
[0136] In this embodiment, the elastic column 11121 can improve the sealing performance of the injection hole 11115 .
[0137] Reference Fig.13 As shown, in some embodiments, the first sealing member 1112 also includes an elastic telescopic portion 11124 connected between the column 11121 and the cap body 11122 .
[0138] The elastic telescopic portion 11124 is arranged between the column 11121 and the cap body 11122. The elastic telescopic portion 11124 can be telescopically deformed along the length direction of the column 11121, so that the cap body 11122 can be elastically deformed when squeezed by the second sealing member 1113. It can be understood that when the squeezing force of the second sealing member 1113 on the cap body 11122 is reduced, the elastic telescopic portion 11124 can stretch and deform, thereby maintaining the contact between the cap body 11122 and the second sealing member 1113.
[0139] The elastic telescopic part 11124 can be an integrally formed structure with the column 11121 and the cap body 11122 to facilitate manufacturing; alternatively, the elastic telescopic part 11124 can be detachably connected to the column 11121 or the cap body 11122, thereby improving the sealing reliability between the first sealing member 1112 and the injection hole 11115.
[0140] In this embodiment, an elastic telescopic portion 11124 is additionally provided to help maintain the squeezing force between the second sealing member 1113 and the cap body 11122 at all times, thereby improving the sealing performance between the first sealing member 1112 and the injection hole 11115 .
[0141] Reference Figure 3-6 As shown, in some embodiments, the outer shell 1111 includes a shell body and a cover body connected to the shell body, the cover body and the shell body together form a accommodating cavity 11111, and the assembly surface 11112, the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 are all located on the cover body.
[0142] Specifically, the cover body can be considered as the first part 11117 mentioned above, and the shell body can be considered as the second part 11118 mentioned above. The shell body has a cavity, and the cover body and the shell body are detachably connected. The cover body is connected to the shell body to close the cavity to form a accommodating cavity 11111.
[0143] During the manufacturing process of the battery device 1100, the electrode assembly 1115 needs to be accommodated in the cavity of the shell body, and the liquid is injected after the cover body is installed. The cover body is generally connected to the upper end of the shell body. Therefore, the injection hole 11115 is opened on the cover body, which is convenient for operation from above, so as to inject electrolyte into the accommodating cavity 11111 from above.
[0144] In this embodiment, the injection hole 11115, the assembly surface 11112, the first sealing groove 11113 and the second sealing groove 11114 are all arranged on the cover body. The cover body is generally flat and has a small volume and regular shape compared to the shell body, which is easier to process, thereby reducing the processing difficulty and improving work efficiency.
