[0054] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0055] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a battery cell, which mainly includes a winding structure in which a negative electrode sheet 2, a separator (not shown in the figure) and a positive electrode sheet 1 are stacked, and the negative electrode sheet 2 includes a negative electrode collector 21. Along the length direction of the negative electrode collector 21, one side surface of the negative electrode collector 21 is provided with a first negative electrode active layer 23 and a second negative electrode active layer 24 adjacent to each other, and the other side surface of the negative electrode collector is provided with a third negative electrode active layer 25; in the orthographic projection of the plane where the negative electrode collector 21 is located, the second negative electrode active layer 24 and the third negative electrode active layer 25 at least partially overlap, and the first negative electrode active layer 23 is located outside the projection of the third negative electrode active layer 25. Exemplarily, in the negative electrode sheet 2, the area where the first negative electrode active layer 23 is located is a single-sided area of the negative electrode sheet 2, and the area where the second negative electrode active layer 24 and the third negative electrode active layer 25 are located is a double-sided area of the negative electrode sheet 2; The third negative electrode active layer 25 faces the center of the winding structure; the positive electrode sheet 1 includes a positive electrode collector 11, along the length direction of the positive electrode collector 11, one side surface of the positive electrode collector 11 is provided with a first positive electrode active layer 13 and a second positive electrode active layer 14 adjacent to each other, and the other side surface of the positive electrode collector 11 is provided with a third positive electrode active layer 15; in the orthographic projection of the plane where the positive electrode collector 11 is located, the second positive electrode active layer 14 and the third positive electrode active layer 15 at least partially overlap, and the first positive electrode active layer 13 is located outside the projection of the third positive electrode active layer 15. Exemplarily, in the positive electrode sheet 1, the area where the first positive electrode active layer 13 is located is a single-sided area of the positive electrode sheet 1, and the area where the second positive electrode active layer 14 and the third positive electrode active layer 15 are located is a double-sided area of the positive electrode sheet 1; the first positive electrode active layer 13 and the second positive electrode active layer 14 face the center of the winding structure. Among them, the winding center of the winding structure refers to Figure 1 The area shown in A; the end of the first negative electrode active layer 23 refers to Figure 1 The length direction of the negative electrode current collector 21 refers to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The direction indicated by the double-headed arrow X2 is the length direction of the positive electrode current collector 11. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The direction is indicated by the double-headed arrow X1.
[0056] Specifically, in order to improve the energy density of the battery, the roller pressing device is required to apply a greater roller pressure to the active layer of the electrode sheet. The increase in roller pressure will cause the third negative electrode active layer 25 and the second negative electrode active layer 24 of the negative electrode sheet 2 to be subjected to a greater roller pressure in the end area 26 close to the first negative electrode active layer 23, which will cause the porosity between the active materials in the end area 26 to decrease, which will cause the battery composed of the above-mentioned negative electrode sheet 2 to have a reduced ability to insert lithium in the end area 26 during charging, resulting in the end area 26 being easy to precipitate lithium. Based on this, the negative electrode sheet 2 has a second negative electrode bend 4 close to the end of the first negative electrode active layer 23, the positive electrode sheet 1 has a second positive electrode bend 6 corresponding to the second negative electrode bend 4, the second positive electrode active layer 14 is located in the first area 121 of the second positive electrode bend 6 to set a first recess, the end area 26 of the second negative electrode active layer 24 is close to the first negative electrode active layer 23, the end area 26 is located in the second negative electrode bend 4, or the end area 26 is close to the second negative electrode bend 4. In this way, the first recess is opened in the first area 121 where the second positive electrode active layer 14 is located at the second positive electrode bend 6. When the end area 26 is located at the second negative electrode bend 4, when the battery cell composed of the above-mentioned winding structure is charged and discharged, a lithium ion migration reaction occurs between the first area 121 and the end area 26. The first recess is opened in the first area 121, which reduces the mass and surface capacity of the positive electrode active material in the first area 121, increases the liquid storage capacity of the area, increases the CB value of the position, and at the same time increases the potential of the end area 26, thereby improving the lithium precipitation of the end area 26; when the end area 26 is close to the second negative electrode bend 4, the position A first recess is provided in the first region 121 of the second positive electrode bend 6. Since the size of the first region 121 is larger than that of the second negative electrode bend 4, a first recess is also provided in the region of the second positive electrode active layer 14 corresponding to the end region 26. Thus, when the battery cell composed of the above-mentioned winding structure is charged and discharged, a lithium ion migration reaction occurs between the first region 121 and the end region 26. The first recess is provided in the first region 121, which reduces the mass and surface capacity of the positive electrode active material in the first region 121, increases the liquid storage capacity in the region, increases the CB value at the position, and at the same time increases the potential of the end region 26, thereby improving lithium deposition in the end region 26.
[0057] It should be noted that, in the winding structure formed by stacking the positive electrode sheet 1, the separator, the negative electrode sheet 2 and the separator, the bending times of the positive electrode sheet 1 and the negative electrode sheet 2 can be the same or different, wherein the second negative electrode bending portion 4 refers to the portion where the negative electrode sheet 2 is bent for the second time and can undergo a lithium ion migration reaction with the positive electrode sheet 1, and the second positive electrode bending portion 6 refers to the portion where the positive electrode sheet 1 is bent for the second time and can undergo a lithium ion migration reaction with the negative electrode sheet 2; correspondingly, the first negative electrode bending portion 3 refers to the portion where the negative electrode sheet 2 is bent for the first time and can undergo a lithium ion migration reaction with the positive electrode sheet 1, and the first positive electrode bending portion 5 refers to the portion where the positive electrode sheet 1 is bent for the first time and can undergo a lithium ion migration reaction with the negative electrode sheet 2. Among them, in some winding structures, although Figure 1 The negative electrode sheet 2 is also bent at the position O shown in the figure, but since there is no lithium ion migration reaction between this area and the positive electrode sheet 1, the negative electrode sheet 1 is bent at Figure 1 The bending at position O is not counted in the bending times of the negative electrode plate 2 .
[0058] It should also be noted that the positive electrode sheet 1 has a second positive electrode bend portion 6 corresponding to the second negative electrode bend portion 4, wherein the correspondence refers to the region where the positive electrode sheet 1 can undergo a lithium ion migration reaction with the second negative electrode bend portion 4. Correspondingly, the positive electrode sheet 1 hereinafter has a first positive electrode bend portion 5 corresponding to the first negative electrode bend portion 3, wherein the correspondence refers to the region where the positive electrode sheet 1 can undergo a lithium ion migration reaction with the first negative electrode bend portion 3.
[0059] It should also be noted that the first recess and the second recess mentioned below can both be grooves and / or holes, wherein the first recess and the second recess can both be provided with one or more recesses, and the first and second mentioned above do not represent the number of grooves and / or holes.
[0060] The winding structure of the above structure is achieved by setting a first recess in the first area 121 of the second positive electrode active layer 14 located at the second positive electrode bend 6, and the end area 26 of the second negative electrode active layer 24 is close to the first negative electrode active layer 23, the end area 26 is located at the second negative electrode bend 4, or the end area 26 is close to the second negative electrode bend 4, thereby reducing the mass and surface capacity of the second positive electrode active layer 14 located in the first area 121, thereby increasing the CB value of the area, increasing the potential of the negative electrode plate 2, improving lithium deposition at the position, and thereby increasing the service life of the battery and improving the safety of the battery during use.
[0061] In some embodiments, the negative electrode sheet 2 has a first negative electrode bend portion 3 away from the end of the first negative electrode active layer 23. In the winding structure, since the end of the first negative electrode active layer 23 is located at the winding center, the first negative electrode active layer 23 located in the first negative electrode bend portion 3 area needs to be bent nearly 360°, which can easily cause the active material of the first negative electrode active layer 23 located in the first negative electrode bend portion 3 area to fall off, resulting in insufficient CB value in the first negative electrode bend portion 3 area, making the first negative electrode active layer 23 located in the first negative electrode bend portion 3 prone to lithium deposition problems. Here, the positive electrode sheet 1 has a first positive electrode bend portion 5 corresponding to the first negative electrode bend portion 3, and a first recess is set in the second area 122 of the second positive electrode active layer 14 located at the first positive electrode bend portion 5. When the battery cell composed of the above-mentioned winding structure is charged and discharged, a lithium ion migration reaction occurs between the second area 122 located at the first positive electrode bend portion 5 and the first negative electrode active layer 23 located at the first negative electrode bend portion 3. The first recess is opened in the second area 122, which reduces the mass and surface capacity of the positive electrode active material in the second area 122, increases the CB value at this position, and improves the lithium deposition of the first negative electrode active layer 23 located at the first negative electrode bend portion 3.
[0062] In some embodiments, in the length direction of the positive electrode current collector 11, the width of the first region 121 is W; the arc length of the outermost bend of the winding structure is M; wherein W and M satisfy: M≤W≤M+10mm; and / or, in the width direction of the positive electrode current collector 11, the length of the first region 121 is equal to the width of the positive electrode sheet 1. Since the end of the third negative electrode active layer 25 close to the first negative electrode active layer 23 is located at the second negative electrode bend 4, the winding structure is formed by stacking the positive electrode sheet 1, the separator, the negative electrode sheet 2 and the separator, the outermost bend of the winding structure ( Figure 1 The arc length of the first region 121 (in the region shown in B) is greater than the arc length of the second negative electrode bend 4. Since the positive electrode sheet 1 and the negative electrode sheet 2 may be misaligned when winding when the positive electrode sheet 1 and the negative electrode sheet 2 form a winding structure, it is ensured that the width of the first region 121 is greater than or equal to the arc length of the outermost circle of the winding structure, and the arc length of the outermost circle of the winding structure is greater than the arc length of the second negative electrode bend 4 provided with the end region 26, so that it can be further ensured that the width of the first region 121 where the first recess is provided is greater than the arc length of the second negative electrode bend 4 provided with the end region 26, so that when the positive electrode sheet 1 and the negative electrode sheet 2 form a winding structure and there is a slight misalignment, it is further ensured that the first recess can alleviate the lithium deposition of the second negative electrode bend 4 provided with the end region 26. Moreover, it is ensured that the width of the first area 121 is less than or equal to the arc length of the outermost circle of the winding structure plus 10 mm, so as to avoid the first area 121 with the first recess being too large, and to avoid excessive reduction in the energy density of the battery while avoiding lithium deposition in the end area 26.
[0063] Since the area with smaller porosity in the end region 26 of the second negative electrode bend 4 is located in the entire area in the width direction of the negative electrode plate 2, it is ensured that in the width direction of the positive electrode plate 1, the length of the first area 121 is equal to the width of the positive electrode plate 1, thereby alleviating lithium deposition in the local area 26 of the width direction of the end region 26 of the negative electrode plate 2.
[0064] It should be noted that the length direction of the positive electrode current collector 11 refers to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The direction indicated by the double-headed arrow X1 in FIG. 1 is the width direction of the positive electrode current collector 11. Figure 3 The direction shown by Y1.
[0065] In some embodiments, in the length direction of the positive electrode current collector 11, the width of the second region 122 is P, and the arc length of the outermost bend of the winding structure is M, wherein P and M satisfy: M≤P≤M+10mm; and / or, in the width direction of the positive electrode current collector 11, the length of the second region 122 is equal to the width of the positive electrode sheet 1. Since the winding structure is formed by winding the positive electrode sheet 1 and the negative electrode sheet 2 layer by layer, the arc length of the outermost bend of the winding structure is greater than the arc length of the first positive bend 5. Since the positive electrode sheet 1 and the negative electrode sheet 2 may be misaligned when the winding structure is wound, it is ensured that the width of the second region 122 is greater than or equal to the arc length of the outermost circle of the winding structure, and the arc length of the outermost circle of the winding structure is greater than the arc length of the first positive electrode bend 5, so that the length of the second region 122 with the first recess is further ensured to be greater than the arc length of the first negative electrode bend 3, thereby further ensuring that the lithium deposition of the first negative electrode bend 3 can be alleviated. Moreover, it is also ensured that the width of the second region 122 is less than or equal to the arc length of the outermost circle of the winding structure plus 10mm, so that the size of the second region 122 with the first recess is avoided to be too large, and while avoiding the lithium deposition of the first negative electrode bend 3, the energy density of the battery can be avoided to be reduced too much.
[0066] Since there is a probability of negative active material falling in each area of the first negative electrode bend 3 in the width direction of the negative electrode current collector 21, it is ensured that the length of the first area 121 in the width direction of the positive electrode current collector 11 is equal to the width of the positive electrode plate 1, so that the local lithium plating of the first negative electrode bend 3 in the width direction of the negative electrode active layer 22 can be alleviated.
[0067] In some embodiments, the third positive electrode active layer 15 includes a third region 123 where a first recess is provided. Preferably, the difference between the projection dimensions of the first region 121 and the third region 123 in the length direction of the positive electrode current collector 11 is N, where N≤5 mm. Specifically, a first recess is also provided in the third region 123 to increase the CB value of the third region 123 and the fifth negative electrode bend 8, which can further prevent lithium deposition in the negative electrode active layer 22 located at the fifth negative electrode bend 8 of the negative electrode sheet 2.
[0068] Correspondingly, a first recess may be provided in the seventh region 124 of the positive active layer 12 arranged opposite to the second region 122 on the other side of the positive current collector 11 , so as to alleviate lithium deposition in the fourth negative electrode bend 7 of the negative electrode sheet 2 arranged corresponding to the seventh region 124 .
[0069] It should be noted that the direction perpendicular to the positive electrode current collector 11 refers to Figure 2 the fourth negative electrode bending portion 7 is also the location where the negative electrode sheet 2 is bent for the fourth time, and the fifth negative electrode bending portion 8 is also the location where the negative electrode sheet 2 is bent for the fifth time.
[0070] It should also be noted that, when the electrode sheet is in the unfolded state, the aligned arrangement means that the first region 121 and the third region 123 are respectively located on both sides of the positive electrode current collector 11 in a direction perpendicular to the positive electrode sheet 1 .
[0071] In some embodiments, a first recess is provided in the second region 122, which increases the contact area between the positive electrode active layer 12 and the electrolyte, increases the porosity of the positive electrode active layer 12, increases the mobility of lithium ions at this position, and improves the dynamic performance of the second region 122. On the basis of the above, a second recess is provided in the fourth region 221 of the first negative electrode active layer 23 located at the first negative electrode bending portion 3, which correspondingly increases the contact area between the negative electrode active layer 22 and the electrolyte, increases the porosity of the negative electrode active layer 22, increases the mobility of lithium ions at this position, and improves the dynamic performance of the fourth region 221, thereby matching the dynamic performance of the positive electrode sheet 1 and the negative electrode sheet 2.
[0072] In the length direction of the negative electrode current collector 21, the width of the fourth region 221 is R, and R and P satisfy: P-2mm≤R≤P; in the width direction of the negative electrode current collector 21, the length of the fourth region 221 is not greater than the length of the second region 122. In this way, the opening size of the fourth region 221 of the negative electrode active layer 22 is smaller than the opening size of the second region 122 of the positive electrode active layer 12, ensuring that when the dynamic performance of the positive electrode plate 1 and the negative electrode plate 2 are matched, the opening area of the fourth region 221 is prevented from being too large, and the lithium analysis of the fourth region 221 beyond the second region 122 is avoided, and the opening area of the fourth region 221 is prevented from being too small, and the dynamic matching of the positive electrode plate 1 and the negative electrode plate 2 is not greatly improved.
[0073] It should be noted that the length direction of the negative electrode current collector 21 refers to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The direction indicated by the double-headed arrow X2 in FIG. 1 is the width direction of the negative electrode current collector 21. Figure 6 The direction is indicated by the double-headed arrow Y2.
[0074] In some embodiments, a first recess is provided in the first region 121, which increases the contact area between the positive electrode active layer 12 and the electrolyte, increases the porosity of the positive electrode active layer 12, increases the mobility of lithium ions at this position, and improves the kinetic performance of the first region 121. On the basis of the above, a second recess is provided in the fifth region 222 of the second negative electrode active layer 24 and the first negative electrode active layer 23, which correspondingly increases the contact area between the negative electrode active layer 22 and the electrolyte, increases the porosity of the negative electrode active layer 22, increases the mobility of lithium ions at this position, and improves the kinetic performance of the fifth region 222, thereby achieving kinetic matching between the positive electrode sheet 1 and the negative electrode sheet 2.
[0075] In the length direction of the negative electrode current collector 21, the width of the fifth region 222 is S, and the width of the first region 121 is W, wherein: S and W satisfy: W-2mm≤S≤W; and / or, in the width direction of the negative electrode current collector 21, the length of the fifth region 222 is not greater than the length of the first region 121. In this way, the opening size of the fifth region 222 is smaller than the opening size of the first region 121, ensuring that when the dynamic performance of the positive electrode plate 1 and the negative electrode plate 2 are matched, the opening area of the fifth region 222 is prevented from being too large, thereby alleviating lithium deposition in the fifth region 222, and the opening area of the fifth region 222 is prevented from being too small, thereby preventing the dynamic matching of the positive electrode plate 1 and the negative electrode plate 2 from being greatly improved.
[0076] In some embodiments, since the compaction density of the second negative electrode active layer 24 and the third negative electrode active layer 25 located in the end region 26 is relatively large, there is a situation where the active material is crushed to death. On the basis of opening a second recess in the fifth region 222, a second recess is set in the sixth region 223 located in the third negative electrode active layer 25 close to the first negative electrode active layer 23. This setting improves the porosity of the fifth region 222 and the sixth region 223, avoids the fifth region 222 and the sixth region 223 from being crushed to death, and improves the mobility rate of lithium ions during charging and discharging.
[0077] In this embodiment, further, in the length direction of the negative electrode current collector 21, the width of the sixth region 223 is ensured to be not less than 3 mm, and the overlap width of the fifth region 222 and the third negative electrode active layer 25 is not less than 3 mm, and the width of the fifth region 222 and the sixth region 223 can exceed the width of the corresponding grooved region of the first region 121. Such a configuration can increase the porosity of the surface of the fifth region 222 and the sixth region 223, allowing lithium ions to more easily penetrate the dense layer on the surface of the negative electrode and embed into the graphite in the thickness direction when the battery is charged, thereby improving lithium precipitation.
[0078] It should be noted that the overlapping width between the fifth region 222 and the third negative electrode active layer 25 refers to the width of the overlapping region in a direction perpendicular to the negative electrode current collector 21 .
[0079] Illustratively, in the length direction of the negative electrode current collector 21, the width of the fifth region 222 may be 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, etc.; correspondingly, the width of the sixth region 223 may be 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, etc.
[0080] In some embodiments, in the direction perpendicular to the current collector, the depth of the first recess is E; in the direction perpendicular to the negative electrode current collector 21, the depth of the second recess is F; wherein E and F satisfy: 1<E:F≤2; the outer diameter of the first recess is H, and the outer diameter of the second recess is K, wherein H and K satisfy: 1<H:K≤2; multiple first recesses and second recesses are provided, that is, multiple first recesses are opened in the first region 121, the second region 122, the third region 123 and the seventh region 124, and multiple second recesses are opened in the fourth region 221, the fifth region 222 and the sixth region 223; wherein the groove spacing between adjacent first recesses is T, the groove spacing between adjacent second recesses is U, and T and U satisfy: 0.5≤T:U≤1. In order to improve the lithium deposition of the negative electrode plate 2, it is necessary to ensure that the content of the positive electrode active layer 12 is less than the content of the corresponding negative electrode active layer 22, and a first recess is opened on the positive electrode active layer 12 and a second recess is opened on the corresponding negative electrode active layer 22, so that the dynamic performance of the above-mentioned areas matches. Here, it is ensured that the depth, outer diameter and groove spacing of the first recess and the second recess meet the above relationship, which can improve the porosity of the negative electrode active layer 22 and improve the mobility efficiency of lithium ions, so that the dynamic performance of the positive and negative electrodes is matched, and it can also ensure that the lithium deposition at the above-mentioned position is alleviated, and the ability to store electrolyte at the position where the groove is set is improved.
[0081] It should be noted that the direction perpendicular to the positive electrode current collector 11 refers to Figure 2 The direction indicated by the double-headed arrow Z1 in FIG. 2 is perpendicular to the negative electrode current collector 21. Figure 5 The direction is indicated by the double-headed arrow Z2.
[0082] It should also be noted that there are multiple first recesses and multiple second recesses, and the values of the depth of the first recess, the depth of the second recess, the outer diameter of the first recess, the outer diameter of the second recess, the groove spacing between adjacent first recesses, and the groove spacing between adjacent second recesses are the average values of the multiple values measured.
[0083] Exemplarily, the ratio of the depth of the first recess to the depth of the second recess can be: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, etc.; the ratio of the outer diameter of the first recess to the outer diameter of the second recess can be: 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, etc.; the ratio of the groove spacing of the first recess to the groove spacing of the second recess can be: 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, etc.
[0084] It should be noted that the outer diameter of the first recess and the second recess refers to the outer diameter of the notches of the first recess and the second recess. When the notch is circular, the outer diameter is the diameter of the notch; when the notch is non-circular such as elliptical, polygonal or irregular, the outer diameter is the diameter of the circumscribed circle of the notch.
[0085] In some embodiments, the groove spacing T between adjacent first recesses satisfies: 50μm≤T≤1000μm, and the groove spacing U between adjacent second recesses satisfies: 50μm≤U≤5000μm; and the groove spacing between adjacent first recesses is ensured to be smaller than the groove spacing between adjacent second recesses.
[0086] In some embodiments, the depth of the first recess is E and satisfies: 3μm≤E≤35μm; and the depth of the second recess is F and satisfies: 5μm≤F≤35μm; and the depth of the first recess is greater than the depth of the second recess; and the depth of the first recess is greater than the depth of the second recess. And the distance between the bottom of the second recess and the negative electrode collector 21 is greater than 0, and the distance between the bottom of the first recess and the positive electrode collector 11 is greater than 0. Such a configuration can avoid damage to the positive electrode collector 11 and the negative electrode collector 21.
[0087] In some embodiments, the maximum distance between the first concave portion near the edge of the positive electrode sheet 1 and the edge of the positive electrode sheet 1 is 50 μm to 970 μm, and the minimum distance between the first concave portion near the edge of the positive electrode sheet 1 and the edge of the positive electrode sheet 1 is 10 μm to 630 μm; wherein the maximum distance between the first concave portion near the edge of the positive electrode sheet 1 and the edge of the positive electrode sheet 1 is Figure 8 The distance shown by D in the figure is the minimum distance between the first concave portion close to the edge of the positive electrode sheet 1 and the edge of the positive electrode sheet 1. Figure 8 The distance shown by G in the figure. The maximum distance between the second concave portion near the edge of the negative electrode sheet 2 and the edge of the negative electrode sheet 2 is 50 μm to 970 μm, and the minimum distance between the second concave portion near the edge of the negative electrode sheet 2 and the edge of the negative electrode sheet 2 is 10 μm to 630 μm. Fig.10 The distance shown in I in the figure is the minimum distance between the second concave portion close to the edge of the negative electrode sheet 2 and the edge of the negative electrode sheet 2. Fig.10 The distance shown by J in the figure. Ensuring that the maximum distance and the minimum distance between the first recess and the second recess and the edge of the pole piece are within the above range can prevent the first recess and the second recess from being opened outside the active layer, improve the accuracy of setting the first recess and the second recess in the active layer, and improve the product yield.
[0088] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the bottom of the first recess and the second recess is smaller than the outer diameter of the notch, that is, the first recess and the second recess are both tapered recesses with the inner diameter of the bottom smaller than the outer diameter of the notch. Such a configuration can make it easier for the electrolyte to enter the first recess and the second recess, improve the efficiency of the electrolyte infiltrating the winding structure, and improve the mobility efficiency of lithium ions and the charging and discharging efficiency.
[0089] It should be noted that if Figure 8 and Fig. 9As shown, the outer diameter of the first recess is H, and the inner diameter of the first recess is H1; Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, the outer diameter of the second recess is K, and the inner diameter of the second recess is K1.
[0090] In some embodiments, the first negative electrode active layer 23, the second negative electrode active layer 24 and the third negative electrode active layer 25 are not provided with recesses in the remaining negative electrode bends of the negative electrode sheet 2. It should be noted that the remaining negative electrode bends of the negative electrode sheet 2 refer to the remaining bends of the negative electrode sheet 2 other than the first negative electrode bend 3 and the second negative electrode bend 4. Moreover, the first positive electrode active layer 13, the second positive electrode active layer 14 and the third positive electrode active layer 15 are not provided with recesses in the remaining positive electrode bends of the positive electrode sheet 1. It should be noted that the remaining positive electrode bends of the positive electrode sheet 1 refer to the remaining bends of the positive electrode sheet 1 other than the first positive electrode bend 5 and the second positive electrode bend 6. With such a configuration, compared with the scheme in which recesses are provided in each bend, this scheme effectively alleviates the lithium precipitation of the negative electrode active layer 22 while avoiding excessive reduction in the energy density of the battery cell.
