Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithium batteries, and in particular to a full-ear cylindrical lithium battery negative electrode busbar and a lithium battery. Background Art

[0002] The rapid development of the power tool industry and the complex application scenarios currently facing power tools pose significant challenges to the performance of traditional lithium-ion batteries. Conventional lithium-ion batteries use a single-pole design for the positive electrode. Under continuous high-current discharge conditions, they experience rapid temperature rise and insufficient transient high-current performance, making them unsuitable for some high-power power tools.

[0003] The use of full-tab cylindrical lithium-ion batteries can greatly improve the above-mentioned problems. However, the busbar welding method currently used in full-tab cylindrical lithium-ion batteries is to weld the flattened electrode group to the busbar in all directions. As a result, the positive and negative electrodes have no space to expand during the charge and discharge process and are subjected to huge compression, which easily leads to the risk of electrode breakage, thereby affecting the electrical and safety performance of the battery.

[0006] disc body;

[0019] The second welding area is arranged on the disk body and away from the center. The welding mark of the second welding area includes a plurality of first dots, and the plurality of first dots form a circular ring concentric with the disk body.

[0020] Optionally, the weld mark shape of the first welding area includes a plurality of second dots, and the second dots are convex upward.

This ensures welding strength, avoiding cold welds or insufficient welding strength, while also preventing overly tight welding that could cause electrode sheet breakage during charging and discharging. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has a simple structure, improves welding quality and efficiency, and ensures the electrical and safety performance of the battery.

[0035] Figure 1This figure is a schematic diagram of a negative busbar according to one embodiment of the present invention. The figure shows the negative busbar, which includes a body 1, a first welding area 2, and a second welding area 3. The first welding area 2 is located at the center of the body 1, while the second welding area 3 is located on the body 1, further away from the center. The weld marks of the second welding area 3 include multiple first circular dots, which form a circular ring concentric with the body 1. By providing the first and second welding areas 2 and 3 on the body 1, the electrode sheets can expand freely, reducing the possibility of fracture and improving various battery performances.

[0036] In this embodiment, the weld shape of the first weld region 2 can be any of various shapes known to those skilled in the art. In one example of the present invention, the weld mark of the first weld region 2 includes a plurality of second dots. These second dots are upwardly protruding, which helps prevent weak welds and improves weld quality.

[0037] In this embodiment, the dimensions of the second welding region 3 can be various sizes known to those skilled in the art. In one example of the present invention, the distance from the center of the first circle to the center of the disk body 1 is 50%-90% of the radius of the disk body 1. Specifically, when the distance from the center of the first circle to the center of the disk body 1 is 50% of the radius of the disk body 1, the welding force is 85 N, the internal resistance is 3.7 mΩ, and the battery undergoes 600 cycles of charge and discharge testing at 6 A and 30 A, with the battery performance retaining 87% of the original performance. Ten tested batteries were disassembled and found to be intact with no fractures in the electrode sheets. When the distance from the center of the first circle to the center of the disk body 1 is 70% of the radius of the disk body 1, the welding force is 91 N, the internal resistance is 3.6 mΩ, and the battery undergoes 600 cycles of charge and discharge testing at 6 A and 30 A, with the battery performance retaining 87% of the original performance. Ten tested batteries were disassembled and found to be intact with no fractures in the electrode sheets. When the distance from the center of the first point to the center of the disk 1 was 90% of the radius of the disk 1, the welding force was 95N and the internal resistance was 3.5mΩ. The battery was tested for 600 cycles at 6A charge and 30A discharge, and the battery performance remained 88% of the original performance. Disassembly of the ten tested batteries revealed that the electrodes were intact and without any cracks. When the distance from the center of the first point to the center of the disk 1 was 30% of the radius of the disk 1, the welding force was 72N and the internal resistance was 4.3mΩ. The battery was tested for 600 cycles at 6A charge and 30A discharge, and the battery performance remained 83% of the original performance, resulting in a failed test result. Under the conditions that the distance from the center of the first point to the center of the disk body 1 is 30% of the radius of the disk body 1 and the distance from the center of the first point to the center of the disk body 1 is 70% of the radius of the disk body 1, the welding tension is 105N, the internal resistance is 3.3mΩ, and the battery is subjected to 600 cycle charge and discharge tests under the conditions of 6A charging and 30A discharging. After the ten tested batteries were disassembled, it was found that the battery electrodes of three were broken, and the test results failed.

[0038] Test results show that a larger weld area results in a greater weld force, a lower internal resistance, and improved cycle performance. In normal production, when the battery's performance parameters are a weld force greater than 80N and an internal resistance less than 4.5mΩ, the battery undergoes 500 cycles of charge and discharge testing at 6A and 30A, maintaining over 85% of its original performance and ensuring no electrode breakage. The battery is deemed qualified. The distance from the center of the first circle to the center of the disc 1 is 50%-90% of the radius of the disc 1. This ensures weld strength, preventing cold welds or insufficient weld strength, while also preventing overly tight welds that could cause electrode breakage during charge and discharge.

[0039] In this embodiment, to improve liquid absorption efficiency, the disc body 1 is provided with openings. The locations of these openings can be various locations known to those skilled in the art. In one example of the present invention, specifically, the first welding region 2 is provided with a first opening 4, and the edge of the disc body 1 is provided with a second opening 5. The first opening 4 is semicircular in shape. The first opening 4 and the second opening 5 create a gap between the disc body 1 and the electrode assembly, which improves liquid absorption efficiency, reduces absorption time, and enhances efficiency when the electrolyte is injected.

[0040] In this embodiment, the number of the second openings 5 ​​can be a number known to those skilled in the art. In one example of the present invention, the number of the second openings 5 ​​is 4, and the interval between two adjacent second openings 5 ​​is 90°.

[0041] On the other hand, the present invention provides a full-pole lug cylindrical lithium battery, which includes a battery electrode group, a positive electrode busbar and a negative electrode busbar. The positive electrode busbar is connected to one end of the battery electrode group for collecting current, and the negative electrode busbar is connected to the other end of the battery electrode group for collecting current. Furthermore, the negative electrode busbar includes a disk body 1, a first welding area 2 and a second welding area 3. The first welding area 2 is arranged at the center of the disk body 1, and the second welding area 3 is arranged on the disk body 1 and away from the center. The weld mark of the second welding area 3 includes multiple first dots, and the multiple first dots form a circular ring concentric with the disk body 1. By arranging the first welding area 2 and the second welding area 3 on the disk body 1, the pole piece can be expanded freely, reducing the possibility of its breakage, and improving the various performances of the battery. In one example of the present invention, the preparation method of the full-pole lug cylindrical lithium battery includes preparing the positive electrode sheet, preparing the negative electrode sheet and assembling the battery. Among them, the preparation of positive electrode sheets includes first adding the positive electrode main material (ternary material), positive electrode auxiliary materials (conductive agent, binder), solvent, etc. into a slurry pot in order, stirring and kneading at high speed, stirring for 120-130 minutes, adding solvent and continuing to stir until the appropriate viscosity is reached, so as to obtain a positive electrode slurry that meets the requirements, and finally evenly coating the above slurry on the front and back sides of aluminum foil, and baking and rolling to obtain a positive electrode sheet that meets the requirements. The preparation of negative electrode sheets includes first adding the negative electrode main material (carbon material), negative electrode auxiliary materials (conductive agent, binder), solvent, etc. into a slurry pot in order, stirring and kneading at high speed, stirring for 100-110 minutes, adding solvent and continuing to stir until the appropriate viscosity is reached, so as to obtain a negative electrode slurry that meets the requirements, and finally evenly coating the above slurry on the front and back sides of copper foil, and baking and rolling to obtain a negative electrode sheet that meets the requirements. When assembling the battery, the positive and negative electrodes and the separator are first wound, and then the shell is installed, flattened, liquid is injected, the busbar is welded, and the sealing process is carried out. Finally, a full-ear cylindrical lithium battery is produced.
