A cylindrical battery sealing mold comprises a mold body with a hollow cylindrical structure, the mold body comprises an upper mounting body 1 and a lower forming body 2, the upper mounting body 1 is assembled on the upper pressing plate of the sealing machine, the lower end surface of the lower forming body 2 is provided with a forming groove 3, the inner contour of the forming groove 3 is adapted to the shape of the battery top cover, and the depth of the forming groove 3 is greater than the sum of the depths of the battery top cover and the battery neck.

[0021] The utility model provides a cylindrical battery sealing die. Compared with the prior art, the upper mounting body 1 is assembled with the upper pressure plate of the sealing machine, and the lower end surface of the lower forming body 2 is provided with a forming groove 3. Among them, the inner contour of the forming groove 3 is adapted to the shape of the battery top cover, and the depth of the forming groove 3 is greater than the sum of the depths of the battery top cover and the battery neck. The utility model provides a cylindrical battery sealing die, which increases the depth of the forming groove 3. Through this structure, the battery top cover and the neck are integrally inserted into the forming groove 3, avoiding the different sizes of the upper and lower ends of the neck caused by the shallow forming groove 3. At the same time, the inner diameter of the forming groove 3 is reduced, so that the inner diameter of the forming groove 3 is adapted to the outer diameter of the battery steel shell, effectively tightening the outer diameter of the steel shell. After sealing, the outer diameter ratio of the battery is the same as the outer diameter of the battery steel shell, which can efficiently utilize space and avoid problems that affect the capacity design of the battery.

[0022] The outer wall and / or inner wall of the upper mounting body 1 are provided with mounting threads 4.
