[0002] With the continuous development of mobile energy storage technology, the requirements for the reliability and safety of its compatible batteries are more extreme. It is expected that the battery can broaden the usage scenarios and reduce geographical restrictions while ensuring safety. Based on this, the conventional metal foil current collectors used in batteries can no longer meet the above requirements at the same time, and composite current collectors have emerged. They integrate the advantages of metal foils and polymers and can meet the comprehensive performance requirements of batteries.

[0003] The structure of the composite current collector is similar to a "sandwich" structure. The inner layer is a substrate layer made of polymer polymers (such as polymer materials like PP / PET / PI, etc.). Conductive layers (such as Al or Cu) are provided on both surfaces of the substrate layer. On the electrode sheet, the tab is usually arranged on one side of the electrode sheet, and one conductive layer of the composite current collector on the corresponding side is welded to the tab and cooperates with the tab to perform charge and discharge. However, the conductive layer on the other side of the composite current collector is not electrically connected to the tab, resulting in the "idle" of the non-conductive conductive layer on that side, which is not fully utilized, wastes materials and occupies space, leading to a low energy density of the battery cell. Summary of the Utility Model

[0012] The length of the second folding portion is greater than the length of the welding portion, and the length of the second folding portion is less than 1 / 4 of the width of the composite current collector.

[0013] In some embodiments, after cutting the folding area, the empty foil area is formed with a cutting hole, and the cutting hole has a plurality of inner corners, and all of the plurality of inner corners are chamfered.

[0014] In some embodiments, the width of the overlapping part of the second folding portion and the non-folding area is greater than the width of the tab.

[0015] In some embodiments, the tensile value of the welding of the tab and the first conductive layer is greater than the peeling force value of the first conductive layer and the substrate layer; and / or,

[0016] The tensile value of the welding of the tab and the second conductive layer is greater than the peeling force value of the second conductive layer and the substrate layer.

[0017] In some embodiments, the thickness of the tab is greater than or equal to the thickness of the composite current collector; and / or,

[0018] The thicknesses of both the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer are less than or equal to the thickness of the substrate layer.

[0033] An embodiment of the present utility model provides a pole piece. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the pole piece includes:

[0034] A composite current collector 100, the composite current collector 100 has a coating area 110 and a bare foil area 120 arranged along its length direction. Both the coating area 110 and the bare foil area 120 include a first conductive layer 101, a substrate layer 102, and a second conductive layer 103 arranged in a stacked manner. The bare foil area 120 is at least divided into a non-folding area 121 and a folding area 122 located at one end of the non-folding area 121. The folding area 122 is formed by two folds from one end of the non-folding area 121 to form a first folding portion 1221 and a second folding portion 1222 connected to the first folding portion 1221. The second folding portion 1222 extends into the folding space of the first folding portion 1221 and at least partially overlaps with the non-folding area 121;

[0035] An active material layer 200, the active material layer 200 is disposed on the first conductive layer 101 and / or the second conductive layer 103 of the coating area 110;

[0036] The tab 300 is clamped between the first conductive layer 101 at the second folding part 1222 and the second conductive layer 103 in the non-folding area 121. The tab 300 is respectively connected to the first conductive layer 101 at the second folding part 1222 and the second conductive layer 103 in the non-folding area 121, so that the first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 are electrically connected.

[0037] The electrode sheet involved in this embodiment can be a positive electrode sheet or a negative electrode sheet, and there is no limitation in this regard. The electrode sheet is applied to the battery cell, and the electrode sheet, another electrode sheet with the opposite polarity thereto, and a separator, etc. are combined to form a battery cell.

[0038] In this electrode sheet, the composite current collector 100 has a coating area 110 and a bare foil area 120. Taking the length direction of the composite current collector 100 as the reference direction, the coating area 110 and the bare foil area 120 are arranged in sequence, and the bare foil area 120 is located at one end of the coating area 110. Moreover, the composite current collector 100 has a multi-layer structure. Both the coating area 110 and the bare foil area 120 of the composite current collector 100 include a first conductive layer 101, a substrate layer 102, and a second conductive layer 103. The substrate layer 102 is a polymer layer, such as a PE polyethylene polymer layer or a PP polypropylene polymer layer, etc. The first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 are metal conductive layers, such as metal layers like an aluminum layer, a copper layer, a nickel layer, etc., or other alloy layers, etc. And the first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 can be the same metal or different metals.

[0039] The active material layer 200 is disposed on the coating area 110 of the composite current collector 100. Correspondingly, the bare foil area 120 of the composite current collector 100 is not coated with the active material. Among them, the active material layer 200 can be set in one layer, and this active material layer 200 is coated on the first conductive layer 101 of the coating area 110 or coated on the second conductive layer 103 of the coating area 110; or, the active material layer 200 can be set in two layers, one active material layer 200 is coated on the first conductive layer 101 of the coating area 110, and the other active material layer 200 is coated on the second conductive layer 103 of the coating area 110.

[0040] Among them, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the empty foil area 120 is divided into regions, and at least a non-folding area 121 and a folding area 122 are divided. The folding area 122 is located at one end of the non-folding area 121. Optionally, the folding area 122 can be located at one end of the non-folding area 121 away from the coating area 110. In addition to this, the folding area 122 can also be located at one end of the non-folding area 121 close to the coating area 110. Within the area of the empty foil area 120, in addition to the divided non-folding area 121 and folding area 122, other areas can also be included, and there is no limitation on this. The folding area 122 is folded from one end of the non-folding area 121 through two folds to form a first folding portion 1221 and a second folding portion 1222, and the second folding portion 1222 is connected to the first folding portion 1221. Moreover, the second folding portion 1222 extends into the folding space of the first folding portion 1221 and has a superimposed relationship with the non-folding area 121 at least partially. Specifically, the first folding portion 1221 is formed by the first fold of the folding area 122 towards the other end of the non-folding area 121, and the second folding portion 1222 is formed by the second fold of the folding area 122 into the folding space of the first folding portion 1221 on the basis of the already folded first folding portion 1221.

[0041] On this basis, the tab 300 is clamped between the first conductive layer 101 at the second folding portion 1222 and the second conductive layer 103 of the non-folding area 121, and is respectively connected to the first conductive layer 101 at the second folding portion 1222 and the second conductive layer 103 of the non-folding area 121, so that the first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 are electrically connected. Both the first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 cooperate with the tab 300 to perform charge and discharge, improving the utilization rate of the conductive layers of the composite current collector 100, thereby avoiding waste of materials and occupation of space, and improving the energy density of the battery cell. Optionally, the connection method between the tab 300 and the first conductive layer 101 at the second folding portion 1222 can be a welding connection, and the connection method between the tab 300 and the second conductive layer 103 of the non-folding area 121 can be a welding connection.

[0042] It should be noted that the so-called electrical connection between the first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 means that the first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 in the coating area 110 and the first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 in the empty foil area 120 are all electrically connected.

[0043] There can be various situations for the setting position of the folding area 122 divided in the empty foil area 120. For example:

[0044] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3, the folding area 122 is located in the end area of the end of the empty foil area 120 away from the coating area 110. By arranging the folding area 122 in the end area of the empty foil area 120, the height of the folding area 122 is equal to the height of the pole piece. Therefore, the folding area 122 can be directly folded from the end area of the empty foil area 120 to form the first folding part 1221 and the second folding part 1222, without the need to perform processing operations such as cutting on the folding area 122 in advance, which saves time and effort. Moreover, the burrs on the end edge of the empty foil area 120 after folding are wrapped in the folding space of the first folding part 1221, realizing hidden setting, which can reduce the risk of the edge burrs piercing the diaphragm and is beneficial to improving the safety of the battery cell.

[0045] In addition to the above setting positions, it can also be that, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , the folding area 122 is located between the two ends of the empty foil area 120 and is formed by cutting on the empty foil area 120. Specifically, when the folding area 122 is located between the two ends of the empty foil area 120, the folding area 122 can be located at the edge position of the empty foil area 120 along the length direction of the composite current collector 100; or, the folding area 122 can be located at a non-edge position of the empty foil area 120, and the non-edge position of the empty foil area 120 can be the middle position of the empty foil area 120, etc. Moreover, in order to realize folding, the folding area 122 is obtained by cutting, and the cutting method can be, for example, knife cutting, laser cutting, etc., which is not limited thereto. Among them, when the folding area 122 is arranged at the edge position of the empty foil area 120, the folding area 122 is cut inward from the edge line of the empty foil area 120.

[0046] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the tab 300 has a welding part 310 for welding and connecting with the first conductive layer 101 at the second folding part 1222 and the second conductive layer 103 at the non-folding area 121;

[0047] The length of the second folding part 1222 is greater than the length of the welding part 310 and less than 1 / 4 of the width of the composite current collector 100.

[0048] In this embodiment, the tab 300 extends between the second folding portion 1222 and the non-folding area 121 through its welding portion 310, and is welded to the first conductive layer 101 at the second folding portion 1222 and the second conductive layer 103 at the non-folding area 121. Among them, by setting the length of the second folding portion 1222 to be greater than the length of the welding portion 310, when the welding portion 310 of the tab 300 is clamped between the second folding portion 1222 and the non-folding area 121, in the common length direction, the welding portion 310 of the tab 300 can be completely welded to the second folding portion 1222 and the non-folding area 121, maximizing the welding length of the welding portion 310 of the tab 300, thereby ensuring the welding strength of the tab 300 and enhancing the connection stability between the tab 300 and the second folding portion 1222 and the non-folding area 121.

[0049] Meanwhile, the length of the second folding portion 1222 is set to be less than 1 / 4 of the width of the composite current collector 100. That is, in the width direction of the composite current collector 100, the corresponding limited folding area 122 is cut with a smaller length, thereby preventing the folding area 122 from affecting the structural strength of the composite current collector 100 due to excessive cutting length and preventing the pole piece from breaking.

[0050] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , after cutting the folding area 122, the empty foil area 120 forms a cutting hole K, and the cutting hole K has a plurality of inner corners, and all the inner corners are chamfered. The cutting hole K penetrates through the empty foil area 120 and has the same contour shape as the folding area 122. For example, the cutting hole K is a square hole with four inner corners, and the four inner corners are respectively distributed at the four corners of the cutting hole K and are all chamfered. Among them, the chamfer can be a rounded corner, etc. By chamfering each inner corner of the cutting hole K, it is beneficial to reduce the stress concentration at the inner corner position of the cutting hole K, and the stress can be better dispersed and balanced.

[0051] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the width of the overlapping part of the second folding portion 1222 and the non-folding area 121 is greater than the width of the tab 300. In this embodiment, by setting the width of the overlapping part of the second folding portion 1222 and the non-folding area 121 to be greater than the width of the tab 300, when the tab 300 is clamped between the second folding portion 1222 and the non-folding area 121, in the common width direction, the tab 300 can be completely welded to the second folding portion 1222 and the non-folding area 121, maximizing the welding width of the tab 300, thereby ensuring the welding strength of the tab 300 and enhancing the connection stability between the tab 300 and the second folding portion 1222.

[0052] In some embodiments, the tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the first conductive layer 101 is greater than the peel force value of the first conductive layer 101 from the substrate layer 102. Herein, the so-called tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the first conductive layer 101 refers to the maximum tensile force that the tab 300 and the first conductive layer 101 can withstand after welding. When the external tensile force applied to the tab 300 is less than the tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the first conductive layer 101, the tab 300 will not detach from the first conductive layer 101. When the external tensile force applied to the tab 300 is greater than the tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the first conductive layer 101, the tab 300 will detach from the first conductive layer 101. The peel force value of the first conductive layer 101 from the substrate layer 102 refers to the force value at which the first conductive layer 101 peels off from the substrate layer 102. When the peeling force applied to the first conductive layer 101 reaches this force value, the first conductive layer 101 will peel off from the substrate layer 102. In this embodiment, by setting the tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the first conductive layer 101 to be greater than the peel force value of the first conductive layer 101 from the substrate layer 102, when the tab 300 is subjected to an external force, when the external force is large, first, the first conductive layer 101 will peel off from the substrate layer 102, and the tab 300 will not detach from the first conductive layer 101, thus ensuring the welding strength of the tab 300. And / or, the tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the second conductive layer 103 is greater than the peel force value of the second conductive layer 103 from the substrate layer 102. Herein, the so-called tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the second conductive layer 103 refers to the maximum tensile force that the tab 300 and the second conductive layer 103 can withstand after welding. When the external tensile force applied to the tab 300 is less than the tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the second conductive layer 103, the tab 300 will not detach from the second conductive layer 103. When the external tensile force applied to the tab 300 is greater than the tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the second conductive layer 103, the tab 300 will detach from the second conductive layer 103. The peel force value of the second conductive layer 103 from the substrate layer 102 refers to the force value at which the second conductive layer 103 peels off from the substrate layer 102. When the peeling force applied to the second conductive layer 103 reaches this force value, the second conductive layer 103 will peel off from the substrate layer 102. In this embodiment, by setting the tensile force value of the tab 300 welded to the second conductive layer 103 to be greater than the peel force value of the second conductive layer 103 from the substrate layer 102, when the tab 300 is subjected to an external force, when the external force is large, first, the second conductive layer 103 will peel off from the substrate layer 102, and the tab 300 will not detach from the second conductive layer 103, thus ensuring the welding strength of the tab 300.

[0053] In some embodiments, the thickness of the tab 300 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the composite current collector 100. Specifically, by setting the thickness of the tab 300 to be greater than or less than the thickness of the composite current collector 100, sufficient strength can be ensured during the welding of the electrode tab and the composite current collector 100, thereby improving the welding stability of the tab 300. And / or, in some embodiments, the thicknesses of both the first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 are less than or equal to the thickness of the substrate layer 102. Specifically, by setting the thicknesses of both the first conductive layer 101 and the second conductive layer 103 to be less than or equal to the thickness of the substrate layer 102, the thickness of the substrate layer 102 can be ensured to be relatively thick, so that the internal structure of the battery can be better isolated and protected, reducing the occurrence of safety risks such as short circuits and overheating, and effectively improving the overall safety of the battery cell. Moreover, setting a relatively thick substrate layer 102 can reduce the demand for expensive metal materials while ensuring the performance of the battery cell, thereby reducing production costs and improving economic benefits.
