[0060] The battery cells may be, but are not limited to, lithium ion batteries, sodium ion batteries, sodium lithium ion batteries, lithium metal batteries, sodium metal batteries, lithium sulfur batteries, magnesium ion batteries, nickel hydrogen batteries, nickel cadmium batteries, lead storage batteries, etc.
[0061] As an example, the battery cell may be a cylindrical battery cell, a prismatic battery cell, a pouch battery cell, or a battery cell of other shapes, the prismatic battery cell including a square case battery cell.
[0062] A battery cell generally includes an electrode assembly. The electrode assembly includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator. During the charge and discharge process of the battery cell, active ions (such as lithium ions) are embedded and removed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The separator is set between the positive electrode and the negative electrode to prevent the positive and negative electrodes from short-circuiting, while allowing active ions to pass through.
[0063] In some embodiments, the positive electrode may be a positive electrode sheet, and the positive electrode sheet may include a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode active material disposed on at least one surface of the positive electrode current collector.
[0064] As an example, the positive electrode current collector has two surfaces facing each other in its thickness direction, and the positive electrode active material is disposed on either or both of the two facing surfaces of the positive electrode current collector.
[0065] As an example, the positive electrode current collector may be a metal foil or a composite current collector. For example, as the metal foil, aluminum with a silver-plated surface, stainless steel with a silver-plated surface, stainless steel, copper, aluminum, nickel, carbon electrode, carbon, nickel or titanium, etc., may be used. The composite current collector may include a polymer material base and a metal layer. The composite current collector may be formed by forming a metal material (aluminum, aluminum alloy, nickel, nickel alloy, titanium, titanium alloy, silver and silver alloy, etc.) on a polymer material substrate (such as a substrate of polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, polystyrene, polyethylene, etc.).
[0066] As an example, the positive electrode active material may include at least one of the following materials: lithium-containing phosphates, lithium transition metal oxides, and their respective modified compounds. However, the present application is not limited to these materials, and other conventional materials that can be used as positive electrode active materials for batteries may also be used.
[0067] In some embodiments, the negative electrode may be a negative electrode sheet, and the negative electrode sheet may include a negative electrode current collector.
[0068] As an example, the negative electrode current collector may be a metal foil or a composite current collector. For example, as the metal foil, aluminum with a silver-plated surface, stainless steel with a silver-plated surface, stainless steel, copper, aluminum, nickel, carbon electrode, carbon, nickel or titanium, etc. may be used.
[0069] In some embodiments, the negative electrode current collector has two surfaces opposite to each other in its thickness direction, and the negative electrode active material is disposed on any one or both of the two opposite surfaces of the negative electrode current collector.
[0070] As an example, the negative electrode active material may adopt the negative electrode active material for the battery known in the art. As an example, the negative electrode active material may include at least one of the following materials: artificial graphite, natural graphite, soft carbon, hard carbon, silicon-based materials, tin-based materials and lithium titanate, etc. The silicon-based material may be selected from at least one of elemental silicon, silicon oxide compounds, silicon-carbon composites, silicon-nitrogen composites and silicon alloys. The tin-based material may be selected from at least one of elemental tin, tin oxide compounds and tin alloys. However, the present application is not limited to these materials, and other traditional materials that can be used as negative electrode active materials for batteries may also be used. These negative electrode active materials may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0071] In some embodiments, the separator is a membrane. The present application has no particular limitation on the type of the membrane, and any known porous membrane with good chemical stability and mechanical stability can be selected.
[0072] As an example, the main material of the separator can be selected from at least one of glass fiber, non-woven fabric, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, and ceramic. The separator can be a single-layer film or a multi-layer composite film, without special restrictions. When the separator is a multi-layer composite film, the materials of each layer can be the same or different, without special restrictions. The separator can be a separate component located between the positive and negative electrodes, or it can be attached to the surface of the positive and negative electrodes.
[0073] In some embodiments, the separator is a solid electrolyte, which is disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode and serves to transmit ions and isolate the positive and negative electrodes.
[0074] In some embodiments, the electrode assembly is a wound structure, wherein the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet are wound into a wound structure.
[0075] At present, from the perspective of market development, batteries have been widely used in electric vehicles such as electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric cars, as well as electric tools, drones, energy storage equipment, etc. With the continuous expansion of battery application areas, the market demand is also constantly expanding.
[0076] The development of battery technology must take into account many design factors at the same time, such as energy density, cycle life, discharge capacity, charge and discharge rate and other performance parameters. In addition, as environmental conditions and / or internal conditions of the battery change, the reliability of the battery cell is also one of the key factors to consider.
[0077] At present, in a wound electrode assembly, the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet are arranged opposite to each other, and the electrode assembly is formed by winding, and the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet are separated by a diaphragm. In the process of forming the electrode assembly, the active material on the surface of the positive electrode sheet may fall off, thereby hindering the transfer of metal ions from the positive electrode sheet to the negative electrode sheet, thereby causing metal ion precipitation in the negative electrode sheet, which may reduce the charge and discharge performance of the battery, shorten the life, or cause other safety hazards.
[0078] In order to reduce the risk of active materials falling off the surface of the positive electrode sheet, adhesive tape is usually applied to the surface of the positive electrode sheet, especially the bent section of the positive electrode sheet with greater stress. However, in the process of forming the electrode assembly, the adhesive layer of the adhesive tape may overflow from the edge of the adhesive tape due to extrusion, and the overflowing adhesive layer may adhere to the diaphragm, thereby affecting the passage of metal ions, causing metal precipitation from the negative electrode sheet, and affecting the reliability of the battery cell.
[0079] In order to reduce the risk of adhesive layer overflow of adhesive tape affecting the reliability of battery cells, the present application provides an adhesive tape. The adhesive tape includes a substrate and an adhesive layer. The substrate has a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other in the thickness direction thereof, and the substrate has a first side surface in the first direction, the first side surface connects the first surface and the second surface, and the first direction is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the substrate. The adhesive layer is arranged on the first surface.
[0080] The first surface includes a glue-coated area coated with a glue layer and a first blank area not coated with a glue layer, and the first blank area connects the glue-coated area and the first side surface.
[0081] Alternatively, the adhesive layer includes a main body and a first edge portion, and along the first direction, the first edge portion is closer to the first side surface than the main body. In the thickness direction of the substrate, the thickness of the first edge portion is less than the thickness of the main body.
[0082] By connecting the glue coating area and the first side surface through the first blank area, or by setting the first edge portion closer to the first side surface than the main body portion, the probability of the glue layer overflowing from the first surface from the first side surface is reduced, and the risk of the glue tape being attached to the electrode piece and the diaphragm being adhered due to the overflow of the glue layer, which causes the precipitation of metal ions from the electrode assembly, is reduced, thereby improving the reliability of the battery cell.
[0083] The battery disclosed in the embodiment of the present application can be used in, but not limited to, electrical equipment such as vehicles, ships or aircraft. The battery disclosed in the present application can be used to form a power supply system of the electrical equipment.

Fig. 9 The adhesive tape in Figure 5 and Figure 6 An embodiment of the adhesive tape, Fig.10 The adhesive tape in Figure 7 and Figure 8 The embodiment of the present application also provides a battery cell 100. The battery cell 100 includes an electrode assembly 110, and the electrode assembly 110 is a wound structure. The electrode assembly 110 includes a first pole piece 1101, a second pole piece 1102 and a diaphragm 1103, the first pole piece 1101 and the second pole piece 1102 have opposite polarities, and the diaphragm 1103 is arranged between the first pole piece 1101 and the second pole piece 1102. Among them, the adhesive tape 1 of any of the above embodiments is affixed to at least one bending section 11011 of the first pole piece 1101, and the first direction X is the winding direction of the electrode assembly 110.

[0176] According to the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the bent section 11011 of the first pole piece 1101 is affixed with adhesive tape 1 to reduce the risk of the material of the first pole piece 1101 falling off when forming the electrode assembly 110, thereby causing the electrode assembly 110 to precipitate metal ions. At the same time, the adhesive tape 1 reduces the risk of the adhesive layer 20 overflowing and thereby adhering to the diaphragm 1103, thereby causing the electrode assembly 110 to precipitate metal ions, thereby improving the reliability of the battery cell 100.
[0177] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, adhesive tape 1 is attached to both sides of at least one bending section 11011 in the thickness direction.

[0182] According to the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, adhesive tape 1 is affixed on both sides of the bending section 11011 in the thickness direction, so that the two sides of the bending section have better consistency, reducing the risk of breakage of the first pole piece 1101, and at the same time reducing the risk of surface material falling off on both sides of the bending section 11011, thereby improving the reliability of the battery cell 100.

[0185] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the innermost bent section 11011 of the first pole piece 1101 is adhered with the adhesive tape 1, so as to reduce the risk of metal ion precipitation in the innermost bent section 11011 of the first pole piece 1101 and improve the reliability of the battery cell 100.

[0188] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, adhesive tape 1 is attached to the positive electrode sheet to reduce the risk of material falling off the surface of the first electrode sheet 1101 and causing metal ions to precipitate from the second electrode sheet 1102 , thereby improving the reliability of the battery cell 100 .
[0189] The embodiment of the present application further provides a battery 200 , comprising the battery cell 100 of any of the above embodiments.
[0190] An embodiment of the present application further provides an electrical device, comprising a battery cell 100 of any of the above embodiments or a battery 200 of any of the above embodiments, wherein the battery cell 100 or the battery 200 is used to provide electrical energy.
[0191] Please refer to Figures 4 to 10In some embodiments, the battery cell 100 includes an electrode assembly 110, and the electrode assembly 110 is a wound structure. The electrode assembly 110 includes a first pole piece 1101, a second pole piece 1102, and a diaphragm 1103. The first pole piece 1101 and the second pole piece 1102 have opposite polarities. The diaphragm 1103 is disposed between the first pole piece 1101 and the second pole piece 1102. The first pole piece 1101 is a positive pole piece. The innermost bending section 11011 of the first pole piece 1101 is affixed with adhesive tape 1, and the adhesive tape 1 is affixed to both sides of the first pole piece 1101 in the thickness direction. In the electrode assembly 110 after manufacturing, the glue of the adhesive tape 1 does not flow out.
[0192] The adhesive tape 1 includes a substrate 10 and an adhesive layer 20. The substrate 10 has a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 opposite to each other in the thickness direction Y thereof, and has a first side surface 13 and a second side surface 14 in the first direction X, and the first side surface 13 and the second side surface 14 are arranged opposite to each other. The first side surface 13 connects the first surface 11 and the second surface 12, and the second side surface 14 connects the first surface 11 and the second surface 12. The first direction X is perpendicular to the thickness direction Y of the substrate 10. The adhesive layer 20 is arranged on the first surface 11.
[0193] In some embodiments, the first surface 11 includes a first blank area 112 not coated with the glue layer 20, a glue-coated area 111 coated with the glue layer 20, and a second blank area 113 not coated with the glue layer 20, which are sequentially arranged along the first direction X. The first blank area 112 connects the glue-coated area 111 and the first side surface 13, and the second blank area 113 connects the glue-coated area 111 and the second side surface 14. That is, when the adhesive tape 1 is attached to the first electrode 1101, the glue layer 20 does not flow out from the first blank area 112 to the first side surface 13, and the glue layer 20 does not flow out from the second blank area 113 to the second side surface 14.
[0194] In such a battery cell, the adhesive tape 1 has a first blank area 112 and a second blank area 113. During the manufacturing process of the electrode assembly 110, due to the setting of the first blank area 112 and the second blank area 113, the adhesive layer 20 can occupy part of the first blank area 112, or part of the second blank area 113, or the adhesive layer 20 can be flush with the first side surface 13, or the adhesive layer can be flush with the second side surface 14, thereby reducing the probability of the adhesive layer 20 overflowing from the first side surface 13, reducing the probability of the adhesive layer 20 overflowing from the second side surface 14, reducing the risk of the adhesive tape 1 adhering to the diaphragm 1103, and further reducing the risk of metal ion precipitation, thereby improving the reliability of the battery cell 100.
[0195] In other embodiments, the adhesive layer 20 includes a first edge portion 22, a main body portion 21, and a second edge portion 23 sequentially arranged along the first direction X. Along the first direction X, the first edge portion 22 is closer to the first side surface 13 than the main body portion 21, and the second edge portion 23 is closer to the second side surface 14 than the main body portion 21. In the thickness direction Y of the substrate 10, the thickness of the first edge portion 22 is less than the thickness of the main body portion 21, and the thickness of the second edge portion 23 is less than the thickness of the main body portion 21. That is, when the adhesive tape 1 is attached to the first pole piece 1101, the first edge portion 22 of the adhesive layer 20 does not flow out to the first side surface 13, and the second edge portion 23 of the adhesive layer 20 does not flow out to the second side surface 14.
[0196] In such a battery cell, when the adhesive tape 1 has a first edge portion 22 and a second edge portion 23, during the manufacturing process of the electrode assembly 110, since the thickness of the first edge portion 22 of the adhesive layer 20 is less than the thickness of the main body 21, the main body 21 can flow to the first edge portion 22, or the adhesive layer 20 can be flush with the first side surface 13, which can reduce the probability of the first edge portion 22 of the adhesive layer 20 flowing out from the first side surface 13. Since the thickness of the second edge portion 23 of the adhesive layer 20 is less than the thickness of the main body 21, the main body 21 can flow to the second edge portion 23, or the adhesive layer 20 can be flush with the second side surface 14, which can reduce the probability of the second edge portion 23 of the adhesive layer 20 flowing out from the second side surface 14, thereby reducing the risk of the adhesive tape 1 adhering to the diaphragm 1103, thereby reducing the risk of metal ion precipitation and improving the reliability of the battery cell 100.
[0197] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application is to stick the adhesive tape 1 on the first pole piece 1101, reduce the probability of the adhesive layer 20 overflowing, reduce the risk of the adhesive tape 1 being stuck to the pole piece and the adhesive layer 20 overflowing and thus adhering to the diaphragm 1103, causing the electrode assembly 110 to precipitate metal ions, and improve the reliability of the battery cell 100.

In particular, the various technical features mentioned in the various embodiments may be combined in any manner as long as there are no structural conflicts.
