[0002] As the main power source of new energy vehicles, power batteries have become one of the key components of electric vehicles. In the existing technology of square battery top covers, pins are set at the bottom of the top cover, which are bent and fixed to the bottom of the pole by riveting and welding. The pins are perpendicular to the upper end surface of the cover. The current square battery top cover with pins requires both the upper and lower ends of the pole to be fixed by riveting and welding. The resistance of the top cover will be greater, and the eccentric structure of the riveting block and the pole will cause the riveting block to warp, resulting in the risk of over-tolerance of important characteristic dimensions, which reduces the safety of new energy batteries during use. Its structure directly affects the reliability and manufacturing cost of the battery pack.

[0003] Based on the above problems, it is necessary to design a new energy battery top cover with reliable structure, simple manufacturing process and low cost to improve the energy density of new energy batteries and reduce manufacturing costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned existing top cover structure, the utility model provides a new energy battery top cover with high safety which helps to improve the assembly efficiency of the top cover and reduce the production cost, and improve the energy density and safety of the new energy battery.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A new energy battery top cover with high safety is composed of a cover body, a lower plastic bracket, a pole assembly, an upper plastic fixing, a sealing ring, a pin, an explosion-proof valve, and an explosion-proof valve protection patch. The sealing ring, the upper plastic fixing, and the pole assembly are each two in number and are distributed at both ends of the cover body. The top of the pole assembly is higher than the highest point of the upper surface of the cover body.

[0007] Preferably, both ends of the cover body are provided with a first groove and a first through hole located in the first groove; the first bosses at both ends of the lower plastic bracket pass through the first through holes on the back side of the cover body and are assembled with the back side of the cover body.

[0008] Preferably, the pole assembly consists of a conductive block at the top, a second boss at the bottom and a third boss at the bottom. The pole assembly is installed in an upper plastic fixing, and the second boss and the third boss pass through a second through hole on the upper plastic fixing. The back side of the conductive block is attached to the upper plastic fixing, and the inner hole on the sealing ring is combined with the second boss to form a sealing structure.

[0009] Preferably, the pin is engaged with three positioning bosses on the lower plastic bracket through three positioning grooves; the third boss on the pole column assembly passes through the third through hole and the third groove on the pin, and the end of the third boss is in close contact with the end of the fourth boss on the pin; the sealing ring is located between the reverse side of the conductive block of the pole column assembly and the first groove, and the sealing ring is compressed to a required thickness to play a role in sealing the top cover.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: Compared with the existing structure of riveting the top cover with pins, the present utility model reduces the riveted aluminum block, reduces the number of structural parts, and reduces the cost. The pole column is directly riveted and welded to the pin, reducing the number of riveting and welding times. At the same time, it also reduces the internal resistance of the battery cell, simplifies the structure of the top cover parts, reduces the weight of the structural parts, reduces the space occupancy rate of the internal structural parts of the battery, improves the overall space utilization rate of the battery, further increases the battery capacity, and is assembled into a component through stamping, injection molding, riveting, laser welding, which simplifies the process flow and is suitable for large-scale automated production. Especially for the pin, on the basis of the unchanged volume, the contact area after riveting the pin and the pole column is increased through the stamping and flanging process, which can improve the ability of the pole column to withstand the pushing and pulling force in the Z direction and improve the safety of the power battery.
