The cover plate 1' generally integrates functional areas such as pole posts, explosion-proof valves 3', and liquid injection holes. The pole group 4' is electrically connected to the pole post base of the cover plate 1' through laser welding of the pole ear 41' part, so as to lead the current inside the battery cell out of the housing.

[0041] According to the structure described above, the present application provides a new type of pole ear structure, which adopts a pole ear design scheme of unequal width, which can increase the size of the root of the pole ear 11, and narrow it at a certain proportion along the height direction of the pole ear 11 to ensure that the space layout requirements are met. In other words, this scheme can meet both the current requirements and the space requirements, and ensure that the exhaust hole 31 of the explosion-proof valve will not be blocked. In other words, it ensures that the exhaust channel of the explosion-proof valve is not blocked, thereby ensuring the exhaust effect, which helps to improve the safety factor of the battery cell.
[0042] Further, preferably, along the preset direction a, one end of the pole group 1 is formed with the aforementioned pole ear 11.
