[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9The present invention proposes a stacked electrode body 100 that is easy to assemble. The stacked electrode body 100 includes: a negative electrode assembly 10, the negative electrode assembly 10 includes a negative electrode sheet 11 and a separator 12, the separator 12 is bonded to the surfaces on both sides of the negative electrode sheet 11 through a glue layer 13; and a positive electrode sheet 20, the positive electrode sheet 20 is stacked with the negative electrode assembly 10.
[0033] Specifically, the stacked electrode body 100 includes a negative electrode assembly 10 and a positive electrode sheet 20. The negative electrode assembly 10 is a combination of a negative electrode sheet 11 and a separator 12. The separator 12 is pre-bonded to the surface of the negative electrode sheet 11 through a glue layer 13, and the separator 12 is bonded to the surfaces on both sides of the negative electrode sheet 11. The two layers of separator 12 are respectively bonded to the surfaces on both sides of the negative electrode sheet 11.
[0034] The number of negative electrode assemblies 10 and positive electrode sheets 20 can be selected according to actual needs, and the stacking method and sequence can also be selected according to actual needs.
[0035] During the stacking process, since the diaphragm 12 has been bonded to the negative electrode sheet 11, when the positive electrode sheet 20 and the negative electrode assembly 10 are stacked, the diaphragm 12 can be prevented from moving or sliding during operation, which can avoid wrinkling and will not affect the position between the positive electrode sheet 20 and the negative electrode sheet 11, which has a good effect on battery performance.
[0036] Furthermore, by pre-bonding the separator 12 to the negative electrode sheet 11 , assembly is facilitated, stacking efficiency is ensured, and battery safety performance is improved.
[0037] The type of the adhesive layer 13 can be selected according to actual needs, and can be set as a PTFE adhesive layer 13, or as a PAA adhesive layer 13, or as a PVDF adhesive layer 13 as described below.
[0038] The technical solution of the present invention forms a negative electrode assembly 10 by bonding the diaphragm 12 and the negative electrode sheet 11 together through the adhesive layer 13, and the diaphragm 12 is set on both sides of the negative electrode sheet 11. The diaphragm 12 is bonded to the negative electrode sheet 11 in advance, which can keep the position of the diaphragm 12 unchanged during the stacking process to avoid wrinkling, and can reduce the adjustment and error of the diaphragm 12 during the assembly process, thereby ensuring that the positive electrode sheet 20 and the negative electrode sheet 11 are not easily misaligned, ensuring the stability and safety of the internal structure of the battery, and improving the battery performance.
[0039] In an embodiment of the present invention, the negative electrode sheet 11 includes a negative electrode body 111 and a negative electrode ear 112, wherein the negative electrode ear 112 is arranged at one end of the negative electrode body 111, and the diaphragm 12 is arranged on the surface of the negative electrode body 111, and the area of the diaphragm 12 is larger than the area of the negative electrode body 111.
[0040] In detail, the negative electrode sheet 11 has a negative electrode ear 112, which is located at the end of the negative electrode body 111, and the separator 12 is mainly adhered to the surface of the negative electrode body 111; at the same time, the area of the separator 12 is set to be larger than the area of the negative electrode body 111. By extending the separator 12 beyond the negative electrode sheet 11, a natural edge sealing layer can be formed when assembling the battery, which helps prevent the electrolyte from leaking from the edge of the battery and reduces the possibility of external contaminants entering the interior of the battery, thereby enhancing the sealing and reliability of the battery.
[0041] During assembly, the slightly larger separator 12 provides greater positioning tolerance, simplifies assembly steps, reduces production defects caused by misalignment, and improves production efficiency and yield. Furthermore, the overhanging portion of the separator 12 helps guide and store more electrolyte, especially at the edge of the battery. This increases the contact area between the electrode and the electrolyte, thereby improving the battery's electrochemical performance.
[0042] In an embodiment of the present invention, each side edge of the separator 12 exceeds the corresponding side edge of the negative electrode body 111 , and the exceeding distance is 1.5 to 2 mm.
[0043] In detail, the diaphragm 12 is bonded to the negative electrode body 111, and each edge of the diaphragm 12 corresponds to each edge of the negative electrode. The edge of each side of the diaphragm 12 is set beyond the edge of the negative electrode body 111, and the exceeding distance can be set to 1.5 to 2 mm, that is, the diaphragm 12 only slightly exceeds the edge of the negative electrode body 111, avoiding unnecessary increase in material costs, and can reduce the difficulty of battery packaging, making the packaging more compact.
[0044] In an embodiment of the present invention, the negative electrode tab 112 is disposed beyond the edge of the separator 12 .
[0045] It is worth noting that Figure 5 and Figure 6 , setting the negative electrode ear 112 beyond the edge of the diaphragm 12 can ensure that the ear is effectively connected to the external conductor, improve production efficiency and assembly accuracy, and reduce the risk of poor welding or damage to the diaphragm 12 due to obstruction by the diaphragm 12; the diaphragm 12 not covering the ear helps heat to be conducted to the outside through the ear, avoids local overheating, and maintains the thermal stability of the battery; therefore, this setting can ensure the reasonable layout of the internal structure of the battery while ensuring the electrical performance and safety of the battery.
[0046] In an embodiment of the present invention, the positive electrode sheet 20 includes a positive electrode body 21 and a positive electrode tab 22 . The positive electrode body 21 is stacked with the negative electrode assembly 10 , and the positive electrode tab 22 is staggered with the negative electrode tab 112 .
[0047] It is worth noting that Figure 1The positive electrode sheet 20 and the negative electrode assembly 10 are stacked, and the positive electrode ear 22 and the negative electrode ear 112 are staggered, which can effectively avoid direct contact between the positive and negative electrodes during the stacking process, thereby preventing short circuit and improving battery safety.
[0048] In an embodiment of the present invention, the adhesive layer 13 is hot-pressed onto the negative electrode sheet 11 and bonded and fixed to the separator 12 ; wherein the hot-pressing temperature is 80-100° C. and the hot-pressing time is 10-60 minutes.
[0049] Specifically, the adhesive layer 13 is connected to the negative electrode sheet 11 by hot pressing. The hot pressing process can make the adhesive layer 13 softer and more fluid when heated, so that it can penetrate into the negative electrode sheet 11. After cooling and solidification, a strong bond is formed, providing stronger bonding strength and durability, and easy operation.
[0050] The specific hot pressing method is: the negative electrode sheet 11 is placed at a certain distance between the two layers of separators 12, with the negative electrode sheets 11 spaced 3 to 4 mm apart, and the separator 12 is provided with a glue layer 13 on one side, and the upper and lower layers of separators 12 both have one side of the glue layer 13 facing the negative electrode sheet 11, and two hot pressing plates are provided outside the two layers of separators 12. The two hot pressing plates are started to make the separator 12 and the negative electrode sheet 11 fit tightly together, wherein the hot pressing temperature is 80 to 100°C, and the hot pressing time is 10 to 60 minutes; under the action of hot pressing, the glue layer 13 of the separator 12 and the negative electrode sheet 11 are heat-fused together, and then the heat-fused separator 12 and the negative electrode sheet 11 are cut to obtain the negative electrode assembly 10.
[0051] In an embodiment of the present invention, the negative electrode assemblies 10 are provided in N+1 groups, the positive electrode sheets 20 are provided in N sheets, and the positive electrode sheets 20 are provided between two adjacent groups of the negative electrode assemblies 10 .
[0052] It is worth noting that the number of negative electrode assemblies 10 is set to be one group more than the positive electrode sheets 20, and the negative electrode assemblies 10 and the positive electrode sheets 20 are stacked in sequence so that the two outermost layers are set as negative electrode sheets 11. After reaching the number of layers required by the process, the stacked electrode body 100 of the battery is formed.
[0053] In an embodiment of the present invention, the diaphragm 12 is a gel diaphragm 12 .
[0054] Specifically, the diaphragm 12 is a gel diaphragm 12 , which has better thermal stability and can reduce the risk of thermal runaway of the battery under overheating conditions; the pore structure of the gel diaphragm 12 is more uniform, and it is easier to connect to the glue layer 13 , and the interaction between the two is relatively stable.
[0055] In the embodiment of the present invention, the material of the adhesive layer 13 is polyvinylidene fluoride.
[0056] It is worth noting that the material of the adhesive layer 13 is polyvinylidene fluoride, also known as PVDF adhesive. The use of PVDF adhesive can provide stable bonding force, ensure close bonding between the diaphragm 12 and the negative electrode sheet 11, and improve the overall structural stability and electrical performance of the battery; and PVDF adhesive has excellent chemical stability, can resist corrosion from the electrolyte, and extend the service life of the battery. PVDF adhesive is resistant to high temperatures and has excellent electrical insulation properties, which can prevent internal short circuits in the battery and improve the safety of the battery.

After reaching the number of layers required by the process, the stacked electrode body 100 of the battery is formed.
[0058] The present invention further provides a battery (not shown), characterized in that it includes the stacked electrode body 100 as described above.
[0059] Specifically, the battery includes the above-mentioned stacked electrode body 100 and a shell, etc. Since the diaphragm 12 can be prevented from wrinkling during the stacking process, the positive electrode sheet 20 and the negative electrode sheet 11 are not easily misaligned, so that the internal structure of the battery is more stable and safer, and the battery performance is relatively excellent.
[0060] The stacked electrode body 100 can be applied to sodium ion batteries or lithium ion batteries.
