Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of battery cell technology, and in particular to a battery cell. Background Art
[0002] At present, the positive and negative poles of the battery cell are made of different materials. The positive pole is copper and the negative pole is aluminum. The hardness of aluminum is lower than that of copper and it is relatively easy to deform, so riveting is easier. The material of copper is harder than aluminum and relatively not easy to deform, so riveting is difficult. At present, there is no distinction between the structures of the two poles of different materials. They are all designed to have the same shape. Most of them are cylindrical structures. For the negative pole made of copper, this can ensure that the force around the negative pole is uniform during riveting, the riveting effect is good, and it is more convenient to rivet. However, for the positive pole, its material is relatively soft and easy to rivet, so it does not need to be designed into the aforementioned cylindrical shape. In addition, due to the limitation of the width of the cover plate, the diameter of the pole is also easily limited, resulting in the cross-sectional area of the pole cannot be increased arbitrarily, and thus cannot meet higher overcurrent capacity.

The second rivet portion 201 made of aluminum and the first cover plate 4 must meet "2-100000Ω" or "at a voltage of 500VDC, the resistance is 0.05-100MΩ (including the end points)". Of course, it is not limited to this.
[0055] Further, preferably, along the first preset direction a, the second cover plate 9 is formed with a second mounting through hole running through the inner and outer sides thereof; wherein the second flow-through portion 202 is installed in the second mounting through hole, and the cross section of the second flow-through portion 202 along the direction perpendicular to the first preset direction a is a non-circular cross section; the second rivet portion 201 is arranged on the outer side of the second cover plate 9, and the second pole ear connection portion 203 is arranged on the inner side of the second cover plate 9.
[0056] Furthermore, preferably, the battery cell also includes a second riveted block 10 and a third plastic part 11. The second riveted block 10 is sleeved on the outside of the second riveted portion 201 and riveted to the second riveted portion 201.
