Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of supercapacitors, in particular to a supercapacitor upper cover, a supercapacitor, and a supercapacitor module. Background Art

[0002] Supercapacitors are a new type of energy storage device between traditional capacitors and rechargeable batteries, with a capacity of several hundred to thousands of farads. Compared with traditional capacitors, they have larger capacity, specific energy or energy density, wider operating temperature range and extremely long service life, while compared with batteries, they have higher specific power and are environmentally friendly.

[0003] Supercapacitor is an emerging charge energy storage device with long life, safety, reliability, huge energy storage, and is an ideal energy storage device. It combines the large current fast charging and discharging characteristics of ordinary capacitors with the energy storage characteristics of batteries, filling the gap between ordinary capacitors and batteries in specific energy and specific power. At present, customers have higher and higher performance requirements for supercapacitor products.

[0004] At present, a supercapacitor module including multiple supercapacitor cells is equipped with a balancing resistor, which is mainly externally mounted on a PCB (integrated circuit board) by welding or connected to external electrical components by welding through a wiring harness. Therefore, problems such as wrong welding and missing welding are prone to occur.

[0005] It should be noted that the balancing resistor is directly connected in parallel with the supercapacitor monomer. During the charging process of the supercapacitor module including multiple supercapacitor monomers, the supercapacitor monomers are also discharged through Req, among which the supercapacitor monomers with high voltage discharge faster, thereby playing a role of balancing protection.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a technology that can solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a supercapacitor upper cover, a supercapacitor, and a supercapacitor module in view of the technical defects in the prior art.

[0008] To this end, the utility model provides a supercapacitor upper cover, including a cover plate, a positive electrode tab, a negative electrode tab, a balancing resistor and a sealing gasket;

[0009] The horizontally distributed cover plate is provided with spaced positive pole tabs and negative pole tabs, and a downwardly concave balancing resistor accommodation groove;

[0010] The balancing resistor is accommodated in the groove, and the balancing resistor is embedded therein;

[0011] The two ends of the balancing resistor each have a lead wire connected to the positive electrode tab and the negative electrode tab respectively;

[0012] Each lead is located in a lead embedding groove;

[0013] The top of the cover plate is covered with a sealing gasket;

[0014] The lead embedding groove and the balancing resistor accommodating groove are both located directly below the sealing gasket.

[0015] In addition, the utility model also provides a supercapacitor, which includes the supercapacitor upper cover as described above.

[0016] In addition, the utility model also provides a supercapacitor module, comprising a plurality of supercapacitors as described above connected in series;

[0017] Each supercapacitor is connected in parallel with a balancing resistor.

[0018] It can be seen from the technical solution provided by the above utility model that, compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a supercapacitor upper cover and a supercapacitor, and a supercapacitor module, whose structural design is scientific. The supercapacitor upper cover has a built-in balancing resistor (i.e., a balancing resistor), so that after the supercapacitor upper cover is manufactured to obtain a supercapacitor, the supercapacitor module including a plurality of supercapacitor cells obtained by further assembly no longer requires an external balancing resistor, thereby effectively avoiding the problems of miswelding and leaking welding caused by the need to weld an external balancing resistor (i.e., a balancing resistor) in the supercapacitor module of the prior art, thereby improving the yield rate of the supercapacitor module finally produced, which has great practical significance.

[0042] In the present invention, in a specific implementation, the lead wire 6 can be a copper wire or a CP wire (tinned copper clad steel wire).

[0043] In the present invention, in a specific implementation, two lead wires 6 are riveted to the positive electrode tab 2 and the negative electrode tab 3 respectively.

[0044] It should be noted that, in the present invention, the balancing resistor is located in the cover plate 1, and there is no welding process required for the balancing resistor in the prior art. Therefore, there is no welding problem such as poor welding.

[0045] In a specific implementation, the positive electrode tab 2 and the negative electrode tab 3 are riveted to the positive electrode post 20 and the negative electrode post 30 respectively.

[0046] The positive electrode column 20 and the negative electrode column 30 each vertically penetrate through a through hole reserved on the cover plate 1;

[0058] Based on the supercapacitor upper cover provided by the above-mentioned utility model, due to the built-in balancing resistor, the supercapacitor module can be assembled after the supercapacitor is assembled, and the part of the external balancing circuit in the module is omitted. In addition, due to the application of the utility model, the balancing resistor (i.e., the balancing resistor) is compounded with the supercapacitor, saving the space of the supercapacitor module. Since there is no need to weld the balancing resistor, the problems of wrong welding and missing welding caused by the need to weld an external balancing resistor in the supercapacitor module of the prior art are effectively avoided.
