As the power source of new energy vehicles, batteries are widely used. In a battery, the battery cell includes a cover body and a housing, and the cover body and the housing are sealed by welding, and the two form a space for placing an electrode assembly.

[0003] During the operation of the battery, due to reasons such as electrochemical reactions inside the battery cell, the battery cell expands, or when stress is applied to the battery cell, the cover body and the housing are prone to break under the action of stress in the heat affected zone formed by welding, and the battery cell is prone to expand and deform, thereby affecting the use of the battery cell. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] Based on this, in view of the problem of poor connection structure strength of the battery cell, it is necessary to provide a battery cell, a battery and an electrical device.

[0005] A battery cell includes a cover body, a housing and a strengthening structure. The housing has an opening, and the cover body is welded to the opening. Along the height direction of the housing, the housing is divided into a heat affected zone and a body zone located below the heat affected zone, and the strengthening structure is arranged in the heat affected zone. Wherein, the strengthening structure includes at least one strengthening part, and the strengthening part is a protrusion protruding from the inner wall of the housing. For the above battery cell, by arranging a strengthening structure in the heat affected zone of the housing, the compressive strength and structural strength of the heat affected zone are improved, the deformation force received by the heat affected zone can be decomposed, and the deformation caused by gas production inside the housing or welding heating in the heat affected zone can be reduced, which is beneficial to improving the connection quality between the housing and the cover body.

[0006] In some embodiments, the strengthening part is a protrusion protruding from the inner wall of the housing towards the inside of the housing, and the arched surface of the strengthening part is an arc surface. In this way, the deformation force received by the heat affected zone is utilized by the arched structure, the compressive strength and structural strength of the heat affected zone are improved, and the deformation caused by high heat in the heat affected zone is reduced.

[0007] In some embodiments, the arch height H of the strengthening part 0 and the span L of the strengthening part 0 The ratio range is 2 / 3 to 1 / 3. In this way, on the basis that the strengthening part is not easily deformed under pressure, it can be ensured that the strengthening part does not occupy too much internal space of the housing, does not hinder the accommodation of the electrode assembly inside the housing, and makes the structure of the housing more compact and reasonable.

[0008] In some embodiments, the arch height H of the strengthening part0 The ratio to the span L of the strengthening part 0 is 1 / 2. In this way, the strengthening part can bear a large pressure without deformation, and at the same time, the occupied space of the strengthening part can be minimized as much as possible.

[0009] In some embodiments, the strengthening structure includes at least two strengthening parts, and all the strengthening parts are arranged side by side and spaced apart on the inner wall of the housing. In this way, the strengthening parts can be reasonably arranged according to requirements to further improve the compressive strength and structural strength of the heat-affected zone and reduce the deformation caused by high heat in the heat-affected zone.

[0010] In some embodiments, all the strengthening parts are configured as dot structures. In this way, the heat dissipation area can be increased, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the heat-affected zone when the temperature rises due to welding or other factors.

[0011] In some embodiments, all the strengthening parts are strip structures, and the strip structures extend along the height direction of the housing. In this way, the heat dissipation area can be increased, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the heat-affected zone when the temperature rises due to welding or other factors.

[0012] In some embodiments, the heat-affected zone has at least two strengthening parts in the height direction of the housing, and the distance between two adjacent strengthening parts in the height direction of the housing is d 0 , 4L 0 ≤d 0 ≤6L 0 . In this way, by limiting the distance between two adjacent strengthening parts in the height direction of the housing, the distribution density of the strengthening parts in the height direction of the heat-affected zone can be limited, which is beneficial to providing sufficient strengthening effect for the heat-affected zone.

[0013] In some embodiments, the battery cell further includes a lower insulating part, which is arranged on the side of the cover body facing the housing and is received in the housing. In this way, the insulation of the cover body and the electrode terminals can be realized, and the stability of the battery cell structure can be further improved.

[0014] In some embodiments, the outer side wall of the lower insulating part is spaced from the inner wall of the housing, and the distance therebetween is D, H 0 <D. In this way, the strengthening part does not contact the outer side wall of the lower insulating part, and there is no mutual interference between the strengthening part and the lower insulating part, so that the assembly of the electrode assembly into the housing and the cover body is not affected, and the rationality of the housing structure is improved.

[0015] In some of these embodiments, the heat affected zone has at least two reinforcing portions in the height direction of the housing, and the distribution of each reinforcing portion in the height direction of the housing does not exceed a first distribution boundary; wherein, the first distribution boundary is the higher one of the bottom edge of the lower insulating member and the bottom edge of the heat affected zone.

[0016] In some of these embodiments, the housing includes a housing bottom surface, two large housing surfaces oppositely arranged in a first direction, and two housing side surfaces oppositely arranged in a second direction, and the first direction, the second direction and the height direction of the housing intersect pairwise; the housing bottom surface, the two large housing surfaces and the two housing side surfaces enclose a cavity, and the cavity has an opening. In this way, a cavity with an opening can be formed so that the electrode assembly is placed through the opening and received in the cavity.

[0017] In some of these embodiments, the dimension of the housing in the first direction is length L, and the dimension of the housing in the second direction is width W; when W > 1 / 5L, a reinforcing structure is provided in the heat affected zone of any one of the large housing surfaces and the heat affected zone of any one of the housing side surfaces; when W ≤ 1 / 5L, a reinforcing structure is provided in the heat affected zone of any one of the large housing surfaces. In this way, according to the ratio of the length to the width of the housing, the reinforcing structure can be flexibly selected to be provided in the heat affected zone of the housing side surface and / or the large housing surface, saving costs and being beneficial to providing sufficient strengthening effect for the heat affected zone.

[0018] In some of these embodiments, the reinforcing structure is also provided in the body area of any one of the large housing surfaces. In this way, the deformation force received by the body area of the large housing surface can be decomposed, and the deformation of the body area of the large housing surface caused by gas generation or welding heating inside the housing can be reduced.

[0019] In some of these embodiments, the body area of any one of the large housing surfaces has at least two reinforcing portions in the first direction, and the distribution of each reinforcing portion in the first direction does not exceed a second distribution boundary; the distance between the second distribution boundary and the edge of the large housing surface in the first direction is D1, and 1 / 5L ≤ D1 ≤ L. In this way, the distribution of each reinforcing portion in the first direction has a certain distance from the edge of the large housing surface, so that the assembly of the electrode assembly into the housing and the cover is not affected.

[0020] In some of these embodiments, the body area of any one of the large housing surfaces has at least two reinforcing portions in the second direction, and the distribution of each reinforcing portion in the second direction does not exceed a third distribution boundary; the distance between the third distribution boundary and the edge of the large housing surface in the second direction is D2, and 1 / 5W ≤ D2 ≤ W. In this way, the distribution of each reinforcing portion in the second direction has a certain distance from the edge of the large housing surface, so that the assembly of the electrode assembly into the housing and the cover is not affected.

[0021] In some of these embodiments, a strengthening structure is also provided in the body area on any side surface of the shell. In this way, the deformation force received by the body area on the side surface of the shell can be decomposed, and the deformation of the body area on the side surface of the shell caused by gas generation or welding heating inside the shell can be reduced.

[0022] In some of these embodiments, a strengthening structure is also provided on any bottom surface of the shell. In this way, the deformation force received by the bottom surface of the shell can be decomposed, and the deformation of the bottom surface of the shell caused by gas generation or welding heating inside the shell can be reduced.

[0023] In some of these embodiments, the bottom surface of the shell includes a flat portion and chamfered portions located at both ends of the flat portion in a first direction; in the height direction of the shell, the arch height H of the strengthening portion 0 < the height H of the chamfered portion 1 , and a bottom support plate is covered on the side of the bottom surface of the shell facing the cover body, and the bottom support plate has a groove that is inserted and cooperated with the strengthening portion.

[0070] In the embodiments of the present application, the span L 0 is defined as the distance between two support points of the arch, and the size of the span determines the compressive capacity of the strengthening portion 310.

[0071] Through the above settings, on the basis that the strengthening portion 310 is not easily deformed under pressure, it is possible to take into account that the strengthening portion 310 does not occupy too much internal space of the housing 200, does not interfere with the accommodation of the electrode assembly inside the housing 200, and makes the structure of the housing 200 more compact and reasonable.

[0072] According to some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 6 , the arch height H of the strengthening portion 310 0 and the span L of the strengthening portion 310 0 The ratio is 1 / 2.

[0078] With the above settings, the reinforcing portions 310 can be reasonably arranged according to requirements to further improve the compressive strength and structural strength of the heat-affected zone 202 and reduce the deformation of the heat-affected zone 202 caused by high heat.

[0079] According to some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 8 , all the reinforcing portions 310 are configured as dot-like structures.

[0080] In the embodiments of the present application, the outer contour of the dot-like structure is circular, oval, rectangular, square, or other irregular shapes. Here, the outer contour of the dot-like structure is not limited.

[0081] In the embodiments of the present application, the sizes of all the reinforcing portions 310 can be exactly the same or different.

[0082] With the above settings, the heat dissipation area can be increased, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the heat-affected zone 202 when the temperature rises due to welding or other factors.

[0083] According to some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 9 , all the reinforcing portions 310 are strip-like structures, and the strip-like structures extend along the height direction of the housing 200.

[0084] In the embodiments of the present application, the outer contour of the strip structure is a long straight shape, a long wavy shape or other irregular shapes. Here, the outer contour of the strip structure is not limited.

[0085] In the embodiments of the present application, the sizes of all the reinforcing portions 310 may be exactly the same or may not be the same.

[0086] Through the above settings, the heat dissipation area can be increased, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the heat affected zone 202 when the temperature rises due to welding or other factors.

[0087] According to some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 6 , the heat affected zone 202 has at least two reinforcing portions 310 in the height direction of the housing 200, and the distance between two adjacent reinforcing portions 310 in the height direction of the housing 200 is d 0 , 4L 0 ≤d 0 ≤6L 0 .

[0088] It can be understood that in the height direction of the housing 200, the heat affected zone 202 has at least two spaced-apart reinforcing portions 310, and L 0 is the span of the reinforcing portion 310.

[0089] Preferably, the distance d between two adjacent reinforcing portions 310 in the height direction of the housing 200 0 is 5L 0 .

[0090] Through the above settings, by limiting the distance between two adjacent reinforcing portions 310 in the height direction of the housing 200, the distribution density of the reinforcing portions 310 of the heat affected zone 202 in the height direction of the housing 200 can be limited, which is beneficial to providing sufficient strengthening effect for the heat affected zone 202.

[0091] According to some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 6 , the battery cell 22 further includes a lower insulating member 400, the lower insulating member 400 is disposed on the side of the cover 100 facing the housing 200, and the lower insulating member 400 is received in the housing 200.

[0092] In the embodiments of the present application, the battery cell 22 further includes an electrode terminal 500, the electrode terminal 500 penetrates through the cover 100 in the thickness direction of the cover 100, and is used for electrically connecting with the electrode assembly of the battery cell 22. The lower insulating member 400 is configured to isolate the cover 100 and the electrode terminal 500 to reduce the risk of short circuit. Exemplarily, the lower insulating member 400 may be plastic, rubber, etc.

[0093] In an embodiment of the present application, a groove may be provided on the side of the cover 100 facing the housing 200, so that the lower insulating member 400 can be received in the groove.

[0094] Through the above arrangement, insulation of the cover 100 and the electrode terminal 500 can be achieved, further improving the structural stability of the battery cell 22.

[0095] In some embodiments according to the present application, please refer to Figure 6 , the outer sidewall of the lower insulating member 400 is spaced from the inner wall of the housing 200, and the distance therebetween is D, H 0 <D.

[0096] It should be noted that H 0 is the arch height of the reinforcing portion 310, and H 0 <D, indicating that the reinforcing portion 310 does not contact the outer sidewall of the lower insulating member 400.

[0097] In an embodiment of the present application, the lower insulating member 400 is in the shape of a cuboid and has four outer sidewalls, and the housing 200 is in the shape of a cuboid and has four inner walls. The distance between each outer sidewall and the corresponding inner wall of the housing 200 is D.

[0098] Through the above arrangement, the reinforcing portion 310 does not contact the outer sidewall of the lower insulating member 400, and there is no mutual interference between the reinforcing portion 310 and the lower insulating member 400, so that the assembly of the electrode assembly into the housing and the cover 100 is not affected, improving the rationality of the structure of the housing 200.

[0099] In some embodiments according to the present application, please refer to Figure 8 , the heat affected zone 202 has at least two reinforcing portions 310 in the height direction of the housing 200, and the distribution of each reinforcing portion 310 in the height direction of the housing 200 does not extend beyond the first distribution boundary; wherein, the first distribution boundary is the higher one of the bottom edge of the lower insulating member 400 and the bottom edge of the heat affected zone 202.

[0100] It should be noted that the heat affected zone 202 has at least two reinforcing portions 310 in the height direction of the housing 200. Since the lower insulating member 400 has a certain height, when designing the distribution range of each reinforcing portion 310 in the height direction of the housing 200, it is necessary to consider how to utilize the space and make each reinforcing portion 310 not affect the assembly of the electrode assembly into the housing.

[0101] Here, the distribution of each reinforcing portion 310 in the height direction of the housing 200 does not extend beyond the first distribution boundary, and the first distribution boundary is the higher one of the bottom edge of the lower insulating member 400 and the bottom edge of the heat affected zone 202, that is, the distribution of each reinforcing portion 310 in the height direction of the housing 200 always does not exceed the height range of the lower insulating member 400.

[0102] For example, in the height direction of the housing 200, when the bottom edge of the lower insulating member 400 is lower than the bottom edge of the heat affected zone 202, the first distribution boundary line is the bottom edge of the heat affected zone 202, that is, the distribution of each reinforcing portion 310 in the height direction of the housing 200 does not extend beyond the bottom edge of the heat affected zone 202;

[0103] For example, in the height direction of the housing 200, when the bottom edge of the lower insulating member 400 is higher than the bottom edge of the heat affected zone 202, the first distribution boundary line is the bottom edge of the lower insulating member 400, that is, the distribution of each reinforcing portion 310 in the height direction of the housing 200 does not extend beyond the bottom edge of the lower insulating member 400.

[0104] Through the above settings, the distribution of each reinforcing portion 310 in the height direction of the housing 200 is always within the height range of the lower insulating member 400, so that the assembly of the electrode assembly into the housing and the cover 100 is not affected, and it is beneficial to improve the space utilization rate of the battery cell 22.

[0111] It can be understood that when W ≤ 1 / 5L, the width of the housing 200 is small, and the deformation of the housing side surface 230 is not significant compared with the deformation of the large housing surface 220. Here, the strengthening structure 300 can be provided only in the heat affected zone 202 of the large housing surface 220; when W > 1 / 5L, the deformation of the housing side surface 230 and the deformation of the large housing surface 220 both need to be considered.
