Description

Technical Field

[0002] Lithium batteries are a type of battery that uses lithium metal or lithium alloy as positive / negative electrode materials and non-aqueous electrolyte solutions. With the continuous development of the battery industry, lithium-ion batteries are widely used in the field of power batteries due to their high energy density to provide power for vehicle operation. Explosion-proof valves play a vital role in the safety of battery cells. When the battery cells have problems such as short circuit, overcharging, overheating, etc., the explosion-proof valve opens in time by sensing the changes in air pressure inside the battery cells to exhaust and relieve pressure, avoiding the risk of battery cell explosion or fire.
