[0001] The utility model relates to the field of lithium-ion batteries, in particular to a sealing structure for a liquid injection hole of a secondary battery. Background Art
[0002] With the vigorous development of the new energy industry, electric vehicles have gradually come into people's view and the demand has increased rapidly. Among them, power batteries, as the core power source of electric vehicles, play a vital role.
[0003] In traditional power battery structures, an injection hole for adding electrolyte is opened on the top cover. After the lithium-ion battery is injected for the second time, the injection hole needs to be sealed in order to ensure a negative pressure environment inside the shell to prevent external gas and moisture from entering the battery cell.
[0004] Repeated charge and discharge processes of the battery will lead to electrolyte loss, resulting in a decline in battery performance. The electrolyte in the battery needs to be replenished to ensure that the battery continues to work normally.
[0005] In most existing processes, after the electrolyte is injected, a sealing glue nail is used to seal the injection hole, and then a sealing aluminum nail and a top cover plate are used for welding, so that the seal cannot be disassembled and the electrolyte cannot be replenished, resulting in a low battery reuse rate.
[0006] To this end, we propose a secondary battery filling hole sealing structure to solve the problem that the electrolyte cannot be replenished after the filling hole is welded and sealed. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0022] Reference Figures 1-4A secondary battery filling hole sealing structure comprises: a top cover sheet 1, wherein the inner cavity of the top cover sheet 1 is provided with a rectangular groove 11, and the upper and lower ends of the rectangular groove 11 are respectively provided with a countersunk hole 12 and a through hole 13, and the rectangular groove 11 is connected with the countersunk hole 12 and the through hole 13; a sealing nail 2, which is detachably inserted into the countersunk hole 12; a slider 4, which is installed in the rectangular groove 11, and a through hole 2 41 is provided on the surface of the slider 4; a spring 3, which is installed in the rectangular groove 11, and the spring 3 is located on one side of the slider 4. When the spring 3 is in a free state, the through hole 2 41 is misaligned with the countersunk hole 12 and the through hole 13 respectively; a sealing gasket 5, which is adhered to the upper and lower surfaces of the slider 4.
[0023] In the embodiment: a rectangular groove 11, a countersunk hole 12 and a through hole 13 are provided on the top cover sheet 1, and a sealing nail 2 is detachably connected to the countersunk hole 12 through a thread, and a primary sealing of the countersunk hole 12 is achieved by the sealing nail 2, and the slider 4 is slidably engaged in the rectangular groove 11. When the spring 3 is in a free state, the through hole 2 41 is respectively misaligned with the countersunk hole 12 and the through hole 1 13; at this time, the sealing gasket 5 on the upper and lower surfaces of the slider 4 achieves a secondary sealing of the countersunk hole 12 and the through hole 1 13. Through the two sealings, the sealing effect is ensured to prevent battery leakage.
[0024] In one embodiment, the countersunk hole 12 and the through hole 13 can be concentrically arranged or eccentrically arranged, which is not limited here.
[0025] In the embodiment: when the battery needs to be replenished, the sealing nail 2 is removed from the countersunk hole 12, and the slider 4 is manually moved toward the side of the spring 3 to compress the spring 3 until the second through hole 41 is connected with the countersunk hole 12 and the first through hole 13 respectively. At this time, the external injection device ejector mechanism is inserted into the countersunk hole 12, the second through hole 41 and the first through hole 13 in sequence, so that the inner and outer channels are opened and the electrolyte can flow in; the utility model adopts a detachable sealing structure, which is easy to install and has good sealing performance. It can replenish the battery for the second time while preventing the battery from leaking.

[0031] In the embodiment: the sealing nail 2 of the T-shaped structure can fit the sealing ring onto the sealing nail 2 through the nail head 22 and press it into the countersunk hole 12 to enhance the sealing effect. The groove 21 on the nail head 22 allows the hexagonal wrench to easily rotate the sealing nail 2 through the groove 21, which is beneficial to the installation of the sealing nail 2 and the countersunk hole 12.
[0032] A blind hole 42 is formed on the upper surface of the slider 4 .
[0033] In the embodiment, a blind hole 42 is provided on the upper surface of the slider 4, and the blind hole 42 facilitates the movement of the slider 4 toward the spring 3.
[0034] The utility model is provided with a rectangular groove 11, a countersunk hole 12 and a through hole 13 on the top cover sheet, and the sealing nail 2 is detachably connected to the countersunk hole 12 through a thread, and the countersunk hole 12 is sealed once by the sealing nail 2, and the slider 4 is slidably engaged in the rectangular groove 11. When the spring 3 is in a free state, the through hole 2 41 is respectively misaligned with the countersunk hole 12 and the through hole 13; at this time, the sealing gasket 5 on the upper and lower surfaces of the slider 4 is used to achieve a secondary sealing of the countersunk hole 12 and the through hole 13.
