In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0034] Embodiment 1

[0035] This embodiment provides a battery top cover, which can reduce the probability of micro-deformation in the local area of ​​the top cover edge near the QR code, and can also reduce the probability of micro-deformation in the local area of ​​the pole hole edge near the QR code, which has the effect of improving the yield of the battery top cover product.

[0036] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the battery top cover includes a top cover sheet 100, on which a QR code 110 and a pole hole 120 are provided, the QR code 110 includes a plurality of recessed portions (not shown in the figure), the minimum spacing between the outermost recessed portion of the QR code 110 and the edge of the top cover sheet 100 is a, the minimum spacing between the outermost recessed portion of the QR code 110 and the hole wall of the pole hole 120 is b, a≥1.5mm, b≥1.5mm, illustratively, a can be 1.5mm, 2.0mm or 2.5mm, etc., b can be 1.5mm, 2.0mm or 2.5mm, etc., in addition, a and b can be equal or unequal.

[0037] Based on the above design, the minimum spacing between the outermost recessed portion of the two-dimensional code 110 and the edge of the top cover sheet 100 is greater than or equal to 1.5 mm, and the spacing between the two-dimensional code 110 and the edge of the top cover sheet 100 is widened as much as possible to reduce the probability of micro-deformation of the local area of ​​the edge of the top cover sheet 100 close to the two-dimensional code 110; at the same time, the minimum spacing between the outermost recessed portion of the two-dimensional code 110 and the hole wall of the pole hole 120 is greater than or equal to 1.5 mm, and the spacing between the two-dimensional code 110 and the pole hole 120 is widened as much as possible to reduce the probability of micro-deformation of the local area of ​​the edge of the pole hole 120 close to the two-dimensional code 110, which has the effect of improving the yield of battery top cover products.

[0038] The two-dimensional code 110 also includes a plurality of plane parts, a plurality of recessed parts and a plurality of plane parts distributed on the top cover sheet 100 according to a certain rule to record the production information of the battery top cover. It should be pointed out that the distribution method and design of the plurality of recessed parts and the plurality of plane parts on the top cover sheet 100 change with the change of the production information of the battery top cover, and the specific distribution method and design are all prior arts and will not be described here.

[0039] In the prior art, the two-dimensional code 110 on the top cover sheet 100 is usually made by a coding device. When the size of the two-dimensional code 110 changes, it is necessary to manually adjust the position of the top cover sheet 100 fixed on the coding device. This method is prone to inaccurate positioning of the two-dimensional code 110 due to human operation errors and size deviations of the coding device, and thus it is easy to make the spacing between the two-dimensional code 110 and the edge of the top cover sheet 100 less than 1.5mm, or the spacing between the two-dimensional code 110 and the hole wall of the pole hole 120 less than 1.5mm, and then the problem of micro-deformation of the local area of ​​the top cover sheet 100 occurs. To solve this technical problem, in this embodiment, the two-dimensional code 110 and the top cover sheet 100 are integrally stamped, that is, when the top cover sheet 100 is prepared by a stamping process, the two-dimensional code 110 is stamped out together, thereby improving the position accuracy of the two-dimensional code 110 on the top cover sheet 100, ensuring that a and b are both greater than or equal to 1.5mm, so as to further reduce the probability of micro-deformation problems in the local area of ​​the top cover sheet 100.

[0040] It should be noted that the above-mentioned integrated stamping process is a common production process in the art, and will not be described in detail here. In addition, the top cover sheet 100 can be made of common materials in the art such as a plain aluminum sheet.

[0041] Alternatively, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the two-dimensional code 110 is a square, and the shortest side length of the two-dimensional code 110 is c, c ≥ 9 mm. For example, c can be 9 mm, 10 mm or 12 mm, etc., to facilitate the stamping of the two-dimensional code 110. In this embodiment, the two-dimensional code 110 is a square structure, that is, the four sides of the two-dimensional code 110 are all c. Of course, in other embodiments, the two-dimensional code 110 can also be a rectangle, in which case the short side of the rectangle can be c.

[0042] In this embodiment, the opening of the recessed portion faces away from the battery shell to prevent the recessed portion of the two-dimensional code 110 from scratching hands or being worn.

[0043] Optionally, the depth of the recessed portion is L, 0.02mm≤L≤2mm, illustratively, L may be 0.02mm, 0.1mm, 1.5mm or 2mm, etc. If L is less than 0.02mm, the recessed portion of the two-dimensional code 110 is too shallow, and it is not easy for the electronic device to recognize the production information recorded in the two-dimensional code 110. If L is greater than 2mm, the recessed portion of the two-dimensional code 110 is too deep, which is easy to reduce the local structural strength of the top cover sheet 100, and it is easy to deform the surface of the top cover sheet 100 facing the battery shell, and then contact and rub with other electrical connection components inside the battery shell.

[0044] Alternatively, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the top cover sheet 100 is also provided with an injection hole 130 and an explosion-proof valve 140, and the two-dimensional code 110 and the injection hole 130 are respectively located on opposite sides of the explosion-proof valve 140. After the electrolyte is injected into the battery shell through the injection hole 130, it is easy for the electrolyte to remain at the edge of the injection hole 130. If the two-dimensional code 110 and the injection hole 130 are arranged adjacent to each other, the electrolyte remaining at the edge of the injection hole 130 is easy to flow into the recessed part of the two-dimensional code 110, and it is difficult to clean the electrolyte in the recessed part. In this embodiment, the structure in which the two-dimensional code 110 and the injection hole 130 are respectively located on opposite sides of the explosion-proof valve 140 increases the distance between the injection hole 130 and the two-dimensional code 110 as much as possible, thereby reducing the probability of the electrolyte remaining at the edge of the injection hole 130 flowing into the recessed part.

[0045] Alternatively, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the battery top cover also includes a pole 200 and a plastic part 300. The pole 200 includes a column 210. The column 210 is inserted into the pole hole 120. Part of the plastic part 300 is filled between the side wall of the column 210 and the hole wall of the pole hole 120. Part of the plastic part 300 is covered on the surface of the top cover sheet 100 to insulate and fix the pole 200 on the top cover sheet 100.

[0046] Furthermore, if Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a chamfer 121 is provided on the edge of the pole hole 120 facing the plastic part 300 , and part of the plastic part 300 is wrapped around the chamfer 121 . The design of the chamfer 121 can prevent the plastic part 300 wrapped around the edge of the pole hole 120 from generating local stress.

[0047] Alternatively, if Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the battery top cover also includes a sealing ring 400, which includes a first sealing segment 410. The first sealing segment 410 is sleeved on the column 210, and the first sealing segment 410 is clamped between the side wall of the column 210 and the hole wall of the pole hole 120 to achieve sealing between the column 210 and the top cover sheet 100.

[0048] Furthermore, if Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the pole 200 further includes a base 220, which is disposed on the side of the top cover sheet 100 away from the plastic part 300. One end of the column 210 is connected to the base 220, and the other end is penetrated by a pole hole 120. The sealing ring 400 further includes a second sealing section 420, which is connected to the first sealing section 410 and is clamped between the base 220 and the top cover sheet 100 to achieve sealing between the base 220 and the top cover sheet 100.

[0049] This embodiment also provides a battery cell with a higher product yield.

[0050] Specifically, the battery cell includes a core, a battery shell and the above-mentioned battery top cover, the core is arranged in the battery shell, and the top cover sheet 100 is arranged at the opening of the battery shell. The battery cell adopts the above-mentioned battery top cover, and the probability of micro-deformation of the edge of the top cover sheet 100 near the QR code 110 is low, and the probability of micro-deformation of the pole hole 120 near the QR code 110 is low, so that the product yield of the battery top cover is high, which provides a strong guarantee for the use performance and safety performance of the battery cell.

[0051] Embodiment 2

[0052] This embodiment provides a battery top cover, which is different from the battery top cover provided in the first embodiment in that:

[0053] like Figure 5 As shown, a liquid injection hole 130 is also provided on the top cover sheet 100, and the two-dimensional code 110 and the liquid injection hole 130 are respectively located on two opposite sides of the pole hole 120, that is, the two-dimensional code 110 and the liquid injection hole 130 are respectively located on two opposite sides of the pole 200, so as to increase the distance between the liquid injection hole 130 and the two-dimensional code 110 as much as possible, thereby reducing the probability of the electrolyte remaining at the edge of the liquid injection hole 130 flowing into the recessed portion.

[0054] The remaining structures of the battery top cover provided in this embodiment are the same as those in the first embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0055] Embodiment 3

[0056] This embodiment provides a battery top cover, which is different from the battery top cover provided in the first embodiment in that:

[0057] like Figure 6 As shown, a liquid injection hole 130 and an explosion-proof valve 140 are also provided on the top cover sheet 100, and the pole hole 120 and the explosion-proof valve 140 are both located between the liquid injection hole 130 and the two-dimensional code 110, that is, the pole 200 and the explosion-proof valve 140 are both located between the liquid injection hole 130 and the two-dimensional code 110, so as to increase the distance between the liquid injection hole 130 and the two-dimensional code 110 as much as possible, thereby reducing the probability of the electrolyte remaining at the edge of the liquid injection hole 130 flowing into the recessed portion.

[0058] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the number of poles 200 is two, one of which is a positive pole 200, and the other is a negative pole 200. The pole 200 and the explosion-proof valve 140 are both located between the injection hole 130 and the two-dimensional code 110. The explosion-proof valve 140 and one pole 200 may be both located between the injection hole 130 and the two-dimensional code 110, or the explosion-proof valve 140 and two poles 200 may be both located between the injection hole 130 and the two-dimensional code 110. Figure 6 As shown, the explosion-proof valve 140 and a pole 200 are both located between the injection hole 130 and the two-dimensional code 110 .

[0059] The remaining structures of the battery top cover provided in this embodiment are the same as those in the first embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0060] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods of the present invention.
