Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of CTP batteries, in particular to a CTP battery box and a CTP battery system. Background Art
[0002] The CTP battery system adopts a module-free structure. The bottom of the battery is directly fixed to the box by gluing, and the battery cell is directly bonded to the bottom plate (or side plate) of the battery box. In order to improve the insulation of the battery cell, it is usually necessary to wrap a layer of insulating film around the outer periphery of the battery cell. The insulating film (blue film) is usually a roll material, and its structure is similar to that of a tape. One surface of the insulating film is sticky so that it can be bonded to the battery cell shell, and the other surface of the insulating film usually contains a certain amount of silicone oil to facilitate the peeling of the insulating film from the roll material.
[0003] However, battery cells that are completely covered with insulating film are difficult to be firmly fixed on the casing due to the presence of silicone oil on the surface. When the battery pack is impacted, the battery cells are easily detached from the casing due to insufficient bonding strength between the battery cells and the battery casing, resulting in failure of the battery module. If the battery cells are not fully covered, for example, no insulating film is provided at the bottom of the battery cells and only the insulating film is wrapped around the battery casing, the insulation performance between the battery cells and the casing will be reduced, and the insulation requirements cannot be met.
