[0002] In the prior art, the internal structure of the short blade battery of lithium batteries is mostly assembled using a single stacked cell. Since the manufacturing process of the stacked cell requires stacking positive / negative electrode sheets layer by layer, the forming efficiency of the stacked cell is slower than that of the wound cell, which has become a bottleneck in the manufacturing efficiency of the short blade battery.
[0003] In addition, due to the easy misalignment and sliding between the positive and negative electrodes inside the stacked battery cell, its manufacturing qualification rate is lower than that of the wound battery cell. When the design capacity of the short blade battery is large, the number of stacking layers and electrode size required for a single stacked battery cell will increase rapidly, greatly increasing the risk of short blade batteries being scrapped due to short circuits during the manufacturing process.
[0004] In addition, the positive and negative poles of the existing short blade battery are located at both ends respectively. It is necessary to first insert a single stacked battery cell into an aluminum shell, and then directly weld the pole tabs to the poles using a laser. When the design capacity of the short blade battery is larger, the number of pole tab layers and the total thickness become larger, and the laser welding between multiple layers of pole tabs is prone to the risk of cold welding.
