Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of battery devices, and in particular to a battery device, an energy storage device, an energy storage system, and a charging network. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of science and technology, electricity has become an indispensable energy source for people's production and daily life. To improve the smoothness of electricity supply and ensure the normal operation of production and life, energy storage devices are needed. Energy storage devices can realize the cyclic storage and release of electric energy. By charging or discharging the battery of the energy storage device, the electric energy can be stored in the energy storage device or supplied to the power-consuming device. Energy storage devices are widely used in industrial power supply, household power supply, temporary power supply, mobile power supply, wind power generation, solar power generation, and energy storage power stations.

[0003] In the development of energy storage devices, in addition to improving the endurance of energy storage devices, improving the reliability of battery devices is also an issue that cannot be ignored. Therefore, how to improve the reliability of battery devices is a technical issue that needs continuous improvement in energy storage technology. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above problems, the present application provides a battery device, an energy storage device, an energy storage system and a charging network to reduce the possibility of emissions released by a battery cell in thermal runaway being sprayed onto the opposite battery cell, thereby improving the reliability of the battery device.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a battery device, comprising:

[0006] A first battery cell group, comprising a plurality of first battery cells arranged along a first direction, wherein the first battery cells include a first pressure relief mechanism;

[0007] a second battery cell group, comprising a plurality of second battery cells arranged along the first direction, the second battery cells comprising a second pressure relief mechanism, the first battery cell group and the second battery cell group being arranged along a second direction, the second direction intersecting the first direction;

[0008] a separation beam, disposed between the first battery cell group and the second battery cell group;

[0009] In which, the interior of the partition beam is provided with a first collection chamber and a second collection chamber that are not connected to each other. The first collection chamber is used to collect the emissions of the first battery cell when the first pressure relief mechanism is actuated, and the second collection chamber is used to collect the emissions of the second battery cell when the second pressure relief mechanism is actuated.

[0010] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, a first collection chamber and a second collection chamber that are not interconnected are provided within the partition beam. The first collection chamber is capable of collecting emissions from the first battery cell when the first pressure relief mechanism is activated, and the second collection chamber is capable of collecting emissions from the second battery cell when the second pressure relief mechanism is activated. When thermal runaway of a battery cell in one battery cell group occurs, the emissions ejected from the pressure relief mechanism of the thermally runaway battery cell can only enter the corresponding collection chamber and are unlikely to be ejected to the battery cells of the other battery cell group on the opposite side. This reduces the possibility of the pressure relief mechanism of the battery cell on the opposite side being damaged and opened, thereby preventing thermal runaway of the battery cell on the opposite side due to high-temperature heat transfer from the emissions. It also prevents short circuits between battery cells on the opposite side due to emissions ejection, and prevents multiple battery cells from being electrically connected to the partition beam simultaneously due to emissions ejection, thereby improving the reliability of the battery device.

[0011] In an optional embodiment, the first pressure relief mechanism is provided on a side of the first battery cell facing the partition beam, and the second pressure relief mechanism is provided on a side of the second battery cell facing the partition beam;

[0012] A first vent hole communicating with the first collecting chamber is provided on the side of the partition beam facing the first battery cell, and the first vent hole corresponds to the position of the first pressure relief mechanism; a second vent hole communicating with the second collecting chamber is provided on the side of the partition beam facing the second battery cell, and the second vent hole corresponds to the position of the second pressure relief mechanism.

[0013] By setting the first pressure relief mechanism on the side of the first battery cell facing the partition beam, and providing a first vent on the side of the partition beam facing the first battery cell, when the first pressure relief mechanism is actuated, the emissions from the first battery cell can be directly discharged from the first vent to the first collection chamber. At the same time, by setting the second pressure relief mechanism on the side of the second battery cell facing the partition beam, and providing a second vent on the side of the partition beam facing the second battery cell, when the second pressure relief mechanism is actuated, the emissions from the second battery cell can be directly discharged from the second vent to the second collection chamber. Since the first collection chamber and the second collection chamber are not connected to each other, the emissions from the first battery cell cannot contact the second battery cell through the second collection chamber, and the emissions from the second battery cell cannot contact the first battery cell through the first collection chamber.

[0014] In an optional embodiment, in a first projection plane perpendicular to the second direction, the orthographic projection of the first vent hole covers the orthographic projection of the first pressure relief mechanism.

[0015] By making the orthographic projection of the first vent hole in the first projection plane cover the orthographic projection of the first pressure relief mechanism in the first projection plane, on the one hand, the first pressure relief mechanism can be made unobstructed, which is conducive to the rapid opening of the first pressure relief mechanism, and avoids the first pressure relief mechanism being unable to open or unable to open completely due to being blocked by the partition beam when actuated, thereby avoiding the inability to exhaust or poor exhaust when the first battery cell has thermal runaway, and preventing the internal pressure of the first battery cell from being unable to be released quickly, causing the shell of the first battery cell to rupture or explode; on the other hand, it can also avoid the metal structure of the first pressure relief mechanism from contacting the shell and the partition beam of the first battery cell at the same time when the first pressure relief mechanism is actuated.

[0016] In an optional embodiment, the battery device further includes a first thermal insulation pad, which is disposed between the partition beam and the first battery cell group. The first thermal insulation pad is provided with a first avoidance hole, which is connected to the first vent hole.

[0017] A first thermal insulation pad is provided between the partition beam and the first battery cell group to prevent heat generated by the first battery cell in thermal runaway from being transferred to other battery cells via the partition beam, causing thermal diffusion. Heat discharged into the first collection chamber is also prevented from being transferred to other battery cells via the partition beam, causing thermal diffusion. A first avoidance hole is provided to prevent the first pressure relief mechanism from being blocked by the first thermal insulation pad when activated.

[0018] In an optional embodiment, in a first projection plane perpendicular to the second direction, the orthographic projection of the first avoidance hole covers the orthographic projection of the first ventilation hole.

[0019] By making the orthographic projection of the first avoidance hole in the first projection plane cover the orthographic projection of the first vent hole in the first projection plane, the first pressure relief mechanism is facilitated to open quickly, thereby preventing the first pressure relief mechanism from being unable to open or unable to open completely due to being blocked by the first thermal insulation pad when actuated.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, in a second projection plane perpendicular to the second direction, the orthographic projection of the second vent hole covers the orthographic projection of the second pressure relief mechanism.

[0021] By making the orthographic projection of the second vent hole in the second projection plane cover the orthographic projection of the second pressure relief mechanism in the second projection plane, on the one hand, the second pressure relief mechanism can be made unobstructed, which is conducive to the rapid opening of the second pressure relief mechanism, and avoids the second pressure relief mechanism being unable to open or unable to fully open due to being blocked by the partition beam when actuated, thereby avoiding the inability to exhaust or poor exhaust when the second battery cell has thermal runaway, and preventing the internal pressure of the second battery cell from being unable to be released quickly, causing the shell of the second battery cell to rupture or explode; on the other hand, it can also avoid the metal structure of the second pressure relief mechanism from contacting the shell and the partition beam of the second battery cell at the same time when the second pressure relief mechanism is actuated.

[0022] In an optional embodiment, the battery device further includes a second thermal insulation pad, which is disposed between the partition beam and the second battery cell group. The second thermal insulation pad is provided with a second avoidance hole, which is connected to the second vent hole.

[0023] A second thermal insulation pad is provided between the partition beam and the second battery cell group to prevent heat generated by the second battery cell in thermal runaway from being transferred to other battery cells via the partition beam, causing thermal diffusion. Heat from the exhaust discharged into the second collection chamber is also prevented from being transferred to other battery cells via the partition beam, causing thermal diffusion. A second avoidance hole is provided to prevent the second pressure relief mechanism from being blocked by the second thermal insulation pad when activated.

[0024] In an optional embodiment, in a second projection plane perpendicular to the second direction, the orthographic projection of the second avoidance hole covers the orthographic projection of the second ventilation hole.

[0025] By making the orthographic projection of the second avoidance hole in the second projection plane cover the orthographic projection of the second vent hole in the second projection plane, the second pressure relief mechanism is facilitated to open quickly, thereby preventing the second pressure relief mechanism from being unable to open or unable to open completely due to being blocked by the second thermal insulation pad when actuated.

For example, a battery module may be formed by bundling multiple battery cells using cable ties.

[0139] In a battery device with two rows of battery cells, the battery cells in the same row constitute a battery cell group. To ensure the safety of the battery device, a metal partition beam with an exhaust channel is usually provided between the two battery cell groups. The two battery cell groups are distributed on both sides of the partition beam, and the pressure relief mechanism of each battery cell is located on the side of each battery cell close to the partition beam. That is, the pressure relief mechanisms of the two rows of battery cells are located face to face on both sides of the partition beam, and the two rows of battery cells share the same exhaust channel.

[0140] At the same time, a layer of epoxy board or mica sheet serves as a thermal insulation plate between each battery cell group and the separator beam. The thermal insulation plate is designed with a plurality of first-level dense holes (each of which is smaller than the size of the pressure relief mechanism) at the position directly opposite each pressure relief mechanism. The separator beam is designed with a plurality of second-level dense holes (each of which is smaller than the size of the pressure relief mechanism) at the position directly opposite each pressure relief mechanism. When a battery cell experiences thermal runaway, emissions (such as high-temperature, high-pressure gas, liquid, and metallic solids) can be ejected from the pressure relief mechanism, then enter the exhaust duct through the first-level and second-level dense holes, and finally discharged to the outside of the battery device through the hollow channel of the end plate.

[0141] However, since the pressure relief mechanisms of the two rows of battery cells are located face to face on both sides of the partition beam, and the two rows of battery cells share the same exhaust channel, the exhaust positions of the battery cells on both sides are spatially interconnected. When thermal runaway occurs in the battery cells on one side, the released gas emissions will be sprayed from the second dense small holes of the partition beam to the battery cells on the opposite side, which can easily cause damage to the pressure relief mechanism of the battery cells on the opposite side or even the thermal runaway spray valve, causing the thermal runaway to spread. The emissions of liquid and metal solid substances will make the outer shell of the battery cell electrically conductive with the partition beam. When the thermal runaway battery cell and the battery cell on the opposite side are connected to the partition beam at the same time, a short circuit accident of the battery device will occur.

[0142] In addition, there is only one layer of insulation board between the battery cell group and the partition beam, which makes the distance between the battery cell and the partition beam relatively close. After the battery cell thermal runaway, the outer shell expands, causing the outer shell to contact the partition beam or making the distance between the outer shell and the partition beam closer. The closer distance will cause the pressure relief mechanism to be unable to open or unable to open completely, resulting in the inability to exhaust or poor exhaust. The internal pressure of the battery cell cannot be released quickly, which will cause the outer shell of the battery cell to rupture or explode.

[0143] In the same battery cell group, the space between the pressure relief mechanism and the partition beam of each battery cell is connected. When one of the battery cells in the same battery cell group experiences thermal runaway and a valve spray occurs, since the size of the second dense small holes is smaller than the size of the pressure relief mechanism, the sprayed emissions will be blocked by the adjacent second dense small holes, causing part of the emissions to enter the area where the adjacent battery cell is located, which can easily cause the thermal runaway to spread, or cause a short circuit between the outer shell of the adjacent battery cell and the partition beam.

[0144] In order to reduce the possibility of emissions released by battery cells during thermal runaway being sprayed onto the battery cells on the opposite side, research has found that the exhaust channel can be separated to form two collection chambers that are not connected to each other, so that the two rows of battery cells no longer share the same exhaust channel, and the emissions from each battery cell group can be collected in different collection chambers, thereby improving the reliability of the power battery device.

[0145] Based on the above considerations, and to address the issue of emissions released by battery cells experiencing thermal runaway spraying onto the opposite battery cells, a battery device has been designed. A first collection chamber and a second collection chamber, each independent of each other, are provided within a separator beam. The first collection chamber is configured to collect emissions from the first battery cell when the first pressure relief mechanism is activated, and the second collection chamber is configured to collect emissions from the second battery cell when the second pressure relief mechanism is activated. When thermal runaway occurs in one battery cell group, emissions ejected from the pressure relief mechanism of the runaway battery cell are confined to the corresponding collection chamber and are unlikely to be ejected onto the battery cells of the opposite battery cell group. This reduces the possibility of damage to the pressure relief mechanism of the opposite battery cell, thereby preventing thermal runaway of the opposite battery cell due to high-temperature heat transfer from the emissions. This also prevents short circuits between opposite battery cells caused by emissions, and prevents multiple battery cells from being simultaneously electrically connected to the separator beam due to emissions, thereby improving the reliability of the battery device.

[0146] The battery device disclosed in the embodiments of the present application can be applied to energy storage devices such as energy storage containers or energy storage cabinets.

[0147] The battery device 100 is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Embodiments of the present application provide a charging network 1000, which includes charging piles 300, which are used to charge electrical devices. Charging network 1000 may also include an energy storage device 200, which is electrically connected to charging piles 300 and is used to provide electrical energy to charging piles 300.

[0149] It should be noted that the charging pile 300 is electrically connected to the battery cells in the energy storage device 200 via a cable, and the battery cells can provide their stored energy to the charging pile 300. The charging pile 300 has a connector that can be connected to an electrical device to replenish energy. The application of the energy storage device 200 in the charging network 1000 can effectively improve the safety of the charging network 1000 and also help increase the flexibility of the charging network 1000 during deployment.

[0150] In a charging network 1000 , there may be one charging pile 300 , and the energy storage device 200 provides power to the one charging pile 300 ; there may also be multiple charging piles 300 , and the energy storage device 200 provides power to multiple charging piles 300 .

[0152] The energy storage device 200 may include a battery device 100 , which is electrically connected to the charging pile 300 so that the battery device 100 provides electrical energy to the charging pile 300 .

[0153] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of an energy storage system 2000 provided in some embodiments of the present application. Embodiments of the present application provide an energy storage system 2000. The energy storage system 2000 includes an energy storage converter 400, which can be electrically connected to a power generation device 3000 to convert the electric power provided by the power generation device 3000. The energy storage system 2000 may also include an energy storage device 200, which is electrically connected to the energy storage converter 400. The energy storage converter 400 converts the electric energy provided by the power generation device 3000 into the energy storage device 200 for storage.

[0154] The power conversion device is connected between the power generation device 3000 and the energy storage device 200. The power generation device 3000 is used to generate electrical energy, and the power generation device 3000 is used to store the generated electrical energy in the energy storage device 200 via the power conversion device.

In a specific implementation, the power generation equipment can specifically include solar panels, hydroelectric power generation equipment, thermal power generation equipment, etc. The specific type of power generation equipment is not limited in this application.

[0155] As an example, Figure 2 As shown, the energy storage system 2000 includes an energy storage device 200 and an energy storage conversion device 400. The two power generation devices 3000 respectively transmit the generated electric energy to the energy storage conversion device 400, and the electric energy is introduced into the energy storage device 200 for storage through the energy storage conversion device 400.

[0159] According to some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figures 4 to 9 , Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the exploded structure of the battery device 100 in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 is a schematic structural diagram of another battery device 100 in some embodiments of the present application. Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the exploded structure of the first battery cell 21 in some embodiments of the present application. Figure 7 for Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the exploded structure of another battery device, Figure 8 for Figure 5 The cross-sectional view at AA in the middle, Figure 9 for Figure 8 Enlarged schematic diagram of point A in the middle.

[0160] The present application provides a battery device 100, including a first battery cell group 20, a second battery cell group 30 and a partition beam 40, the first battery cell group 20 includes a plurality of first battery cells 21 arranged along a first direction x, the first battery cells 21 include a first pressure relief mechanism, the second battery cell group 30 includes a plurality of second battery cells 31 arranged along the first direction x, the second battery cells 31 include a second pressure relief mechanism 311, the first battery cell group 20 and the second battery cell group 30 are arranged along a second direction y, and the second direction y intersects with the first direction x.

[0161] The partition beam 40 is disposed between the first battery cell group 20 and the second battery cell group 30 .

[0162] Among them, the interior of the partition beam 40 is provided with a first collection chamber 401 and a second collection chamber 402 which are not connected to each other. The first collection chamber 401 is used to collect the emissions of the first battery cell 21 when the first pressure relief mechanism is actuated, and the second collection chamber 402 is used to collect the emissions of the second battery cell 31 when the second pressure relief mechanism 311 is actuated.

[0163] The first battery cell group 20 is an assembly consisting of a plurality of first battery cells 21 connected in series, in parallel, or in mixed series.

[0164] The second battery cell group 30 is an assembly consisting of a plurality of second battery cells 31 connected in series, in parallel, or in mixed series.

[0165] The first battery cell 21 has the same structure as the second battery cell 31. For example, taking the first battery cell 21 as an example, refer to Figure 6 The first battery cell 21 further includes a housing 211 , a battery cell assembly 212 and other functional components.

[0166] The outer shell 211 includes an end cap 2111 and a housing 2112. The end cap 2111 covers the opening of the housing 2112 to isolate the internal environment of the battery cell from the external environment. The shape of the end cap 2111 can be adapted to match the shape of the housing 2112 to fit the housing 2112. Optionally, the end cap 2111 can be made of a material with a certain degree of hardness and strength (such as aluminum alloy). This reduces deformation during compression and collision, providing the first battery cell 21 with greater structural strength and improved safety. Functional components such as a terminal 213 can be provided on the end cap 2111. The terminal 213 can be used to electrically connect to the battery cell assembly 212 to transmit or receive electrical energy from the first battery cell 21. In some embodiments, the end cap 2111 can also be provided with a pressure relief mechanism to release internal pressure when the internal pressure or temperature of the first battery cell 21 reaches a threshold. End cap 2111 can be made of a variety of materials, such as copper, iron, aluminum, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, and plastic, and this is not particularly limited in the present embodiment. In some embodiments, an insulating member can be disposed inside end cap 2111 to isolate electrical components within housing 2112 from end cap 2111, thereby reducing the risk of short circuits. Exemplary insulating members can be made of plastic, rubber, and the like.

[0167] The housing 2112 is a component that cooperates with the end cap 2111 to form an internal environment for the first battery cell 21. This internal environment can be used to accommodate the battery cell assembly 212, electrolyte, and other components. The housing 2112 and the end cap 2111 can be separate components. An opening can be provided in the housing 2112, and the end cap 2111 is closed over the opening to form the internal environment of the first battery cell 21. Alternatively, the end cap 2111 and the housing 2112 can be integrated. Specifically, the end cap 2111 and the housing 2112 can form a common connection surface before other components are inserted into the housing. When the interior of the housing 2112 needs to be encapsulated, the end cap 2111 is closed over the housing 2112. The housing 2112 can have a variety of shapes and sizes, such as a rectangular parallelepiped, a cylindrical shape, a hexagonal prism, etc. Specifically, the shape of the housing 2112 can be determined based on the specific shape and size of the battery cell assembly 212. The shell 2112 can be made of a variety of materials, such as copper, iron, aluminum, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, plastic, etc., and the embodiment of the present application does not impose any special restrictions on this.

[0168] The battery cell assembly 212 is a component in the first battery cell 21 where electrochemical reactions occur. One or more battery cell assemblies 212 may be contained in the shell 2112. The battery cell assembly 212 is mainly formed by winding or stacking positive and negative electrode sheets, and a separator is usually provided between the positive and negative electrode sheets. The parts of the positive and negative electrode sheets with active substances constitute the main body of the battery cell assembly 212, and the parts of the positive and negative electrode sheets without active substances each constitute a tab. The positive and negative electrode tabs may be located together at one end of the main body or respectively at both ends of the main body. During the charge and discharge process of the battery device 100, the positive electrode active substance and the negative electrode active substance react with the electrolyte, and the tabs connect the electrode terminals to form a current loop.

[0169] The first direction x and the second direction y are two horizontal directions perpendicular to each other. For example, the first direction x may be parallel to the width direction of the battery device 100, and the second direction y may be parallel to the length direction of the battery device 100; or, the first direction x may be parallel to the length direction of the battery device 100, and the second direction y may be parallel to the width direction of the battery device 100.

[0170] The pressure relief mechanism (including the first pressure relief mechanism and the second pressure relief mechanism 311) refers to an element or component that is activated to release the internal pressure or temperature when the internal pressure, temperature, or other conditions of the battery cell reach a predetermined threshold. The threshold design varies according to different design requirements. The threshold may depend on the material of one or more of the positive electrode plate, negative electrode plate, electrolyte, and separator in the battery cell. The pressure relief mechanism can take the form of an explosion-proof valve, an air valve, a pressure relief valve, or a safety valve, and can specifically adopt a pressure-sensitive or temperature-sensitive element or structure. That is, when the internal pressure, temperature, or other conditions of the battery cell reach a predetermined threshold, the pressure relief mechanism is activated or the weak structure provided in the pressure relief mechanism is destroyed, thereby forming an opening or channel for the internal pressure or temperature to be released.

[0171] The pressure relief mechanism may be an explosion-proof valve, specifically an explosion-proof disk.

[0172] The "activation" mentioned in the embodiments of the present application refers to the action of the pressure relief mechanism or its activation to a certain state, so that the internal pressure and temperature of the battery cell can be released. The action produced by the pressure relief mechanism may include but is not limited to: at least a part of the pressure relief mechanism is broken, shattered, melted, torn or opened, etc. When the pressure relief mechanism is actuated, the high-temperature and high-pressure substances inside the battery cell will be discharged outward from the actuated part as emissions. In this way, the pressure and temperature of the battery cell can be relieved under controllable pressure or temperature, thereby avoiding potential more serious accidents.

[0173] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, a first collection chamber 401 and a second collection chamber 402, which are not interconnected, are provided within the separator beam 40. The first collection chamber 401 is capable of collecting emissions from the first battery cell 21 when the first pressure relief mechanism is activated, and the second collection chamber 402 is capable of collecting emissions from the second battery cell 31 when the second pressure relief mechanism 311 is activated. When thermal runaway occurs in a battery cell group, emissions ejected from the pressure relief mechanism of the thermally runaway battery cell can only enter the corresponding collection chamber and are unlikely to be ejected onto the battery cells of the opposite battery cell group. This reduces the possibility of damage to the pressure relief mechanism of the opposite battery cell, thereby preventing thermal runaway of the opposite battery cell due to high-temperature heat transfer from the emissions. This also prevents short circuits between opposite battery cells caused by emissions. It also prevents multiple battery cells from being electrically connected to the separator beam 40 simultaneously due to emissions, thereby improving the reliability of the battery device 100.

[0174] Specifically, when a first battery cell 21 in a first battery cell group 20 experiences thermal runaway, the emissions ejected from the first pressure relief mechanism of the thermally runaway first battery cell 21 can only enter the corresponding first collection chamber 401, and are unlikely to be ejected to the second battery cell 31 of the opposite second battery cell group 30. When a second battery cell 31 in a second battery cell group 30 experiences thermal runaway, the emissions ejected from the second pressure relief mechanism 311 of the thermally runaway second battery cell 31 can only enter the corresponding second collection chamber 402, and are unlikely to be ejected to the first battery cell 21 of the opposite first battery cell group 20.

[0175] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7-Figure 9 , and refer to Figure 12-15 , Figure 12 for Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the assembly of the partition beam 40, the first end plate 13, the second end plate 14 and the bottom plate 15, Figure 13 for Figure 12 Cross-sectional view at the middle BB, Figure 14 for Figure 13 The enlarged schematic diagram of point B in the middle is shown in Figure 2. Figure 15 for Figure 13 The first pressure relief mechanism is provided on the side of the first battery cell 21 facing the partition beam 40 , and the second pressure relief mechanism 311 is provided on the side of the second battery cell 31 facing the partition beam 40 .

[0176] The side of the separator beam 40 facing the first battery cell 21 is provided with a first vent hole 403 that communicates with the first collection chamber 401. The first vent hole 403 corresponds to the position of the first pressure relief mechanism. The side of the separator beam 40 facing the second battery cell 31 is provided with a second vent hole 404 that communicates with the second collection chamber 402. The second vent hole 404 corresponds to the position of the second pressure relief mechanism 311.

[0177] By positioning the first pressure relief mechanism on the side of the first battery cell 21 facing the partition beam 40 and providing a first vent 403 on the side of the partition beam 40 facing the first battery cell 21, when the first pressure relief mechanism is activated, exhaust from the first battery cell 21 can be discharged directly through the first vent 403 into the first collection chamber 401. Simultaneously, by positioning the second pressure relief mechanism 311 on the side of the second battery cell 31 facing the partition beam 40 and providing a second vent 404 on the side of the partition beam 40 facing the second battery cell 31, when the second pressure relief mechanism 311 is activated, exhaust from the second battery cell 31 can be discharged directly through the second vent 404 into the second collection chamber 402. Because the first and second collection chambers 401 and 402 are not interconnected, exhaust from the first battery cell 21 cannot reach the second battery cell 31 through the second collection chamber 402, and exhaust from the second battery cell 31 cannot reach the first battery cell 21 through the first collection chamber 401.

[0178] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7-Figure 9 In a first projection plane perpendicular to the second direction y, the orthographic projection of the first vent hole 403 overlaps the orthographic projection of the first pressure relief mechanism. Exemplarily, the shape of the first vent hole 403 matches the shape of the first pressure relief mechanism, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the first vent hole 403 is not less than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first pressure relief mechanism, such that the orthographic projection of the first vent hole 403 overlaps the orthographic projection of the first pressure relief mechanism.

[0179] By ensuring that the orthographic projection of the first vent hole 403 within the first projection plane covers the orthographic projection of the first pressure relief mechanism within the first projection plane, the first pressure relief mechanism is unobstructed, facilitating its rapid opening and preventing the first pressure relief mechanism from being blocked by the partition beam 40 during actuation, preventing it from being unable to open or fully open. This, in turn, prevents the first battery cell 21 from being unable to vent or having its venting blocked during thermal runaway, and prevents the internal pressure of the first battery cell 21 from being unable to be quickly released, thereby preventing the outer shell of the first battery cell 21 from rupturing or exploding. Furthermore, this prevents the metal structure of the first pressure relief mechanism from simultaneously contacting the outer shell of the first battery cell 21 and the partition beam 40 when the first pressure relief mechanism is actuated. This, when the metal structure of the first pressure relief mechanism is simultaneously in contact with the outer shell of the first battery cell 21 and the partition beam 40, electrical communication may occur. When multiple first battery cells 21 are simultaneously electrically connected to the partition beam 40, this may cause a short circuit between the first battery cells 21.

[0180] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7 The battery device 100 further includes a first thermal insulation pad 50 , which is disposed between the partition beam 40 and the first battery cell group 20 . The first thermal insulation pad 50 is provided with a first avoidance hole 51 , which is communicated with the first vent hole 403 .

[0181] The first thermal insulation pad 50 can be a thin plate with high temperature resistance and thermal insulation properties, such as an epoxy plate or a mica plate.

[0182] By disposing a first thermal insulation pad 50 between the partition beam 40 and the first battery cell group 20, the first thermal insulation pad 50 prevents heat generated by the first battery cell 21 in thermal runaway from being transferred to other battery cells via the partition beam 40, causing thermal diffusion. It also prevents heat from the exhaust discharged into the first collection chamber 401 from being transferred to other battery cells via the partition beam 40, causing thermal diffusion. The first avoidance hole 51 is provided to prevent the first pressure relief mechanism from being blocked by the first thermal insulation pad 50 when it is activated.

[0183] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7 In a first projection plane perpendicular to the second direction y, the orthographic projection of the first avoidance hole 51 overlaps the orthographic projection of the first vent 403. For example, the shape of the first avoidance hole 51 can match the shape of the first vent 403, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the first avoidance hole 51 can be consistent with the cross-sectional area of ​​the first vent 403. In this case, the size of the first avoidance hole 51 is consistent with the size of the first vent 403.

[0184] By making the orthographic projection of the first avoidance hole 51 in the first projection plane cover the orthographic projection of the first vent hole 403 in the first projection plane, the first pressure relief mechanism is facilitated to open quickly, thereby preventing the first pressure relief mechanism from being unable to open or unable to open completely due to being blocked by the first thermal insulation pad 50 when actuated.

[0185] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7 The orthographic projection of the center of the first pressure relief mechanism in the first projection plane, the orthographic projection of the center of the first vent hole 403 in the first projection plane, and the orthographic projection of the center of the first avoidance hole 51 in the first projection plane overlap to ensure that the emissions ejected from the first pressure relief mechanism can quickly enter the first collecting chamber 401.

[0186] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7-Figure 9 In a second projection plane perpendicular to the second direction y, the orthographic projection of the second vent hole 404 overlaps the orthographic projection of the second pressure relief mechanism 311. Exemplarily, the shape of the second vent hole 404 matches the shape of the second pressure relief mechanism 311, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the second vent hole 404 is not less than the cross-sectional area of ​​the second pressure relief mechanism 311, such that the orthographic projection of the second vent hole 404 overlaps the orthographic projection of the second pressure relief mechanism 311.

[0187] By ensuring that the orthographic projection of the second vent hole 404 on the second projection plane covers the orthographic projection of the second pressure relief mechanism 311 on the second projection plane, the second pressure relief mechanism 311 is unobstructed, facilitating its rapid opening. This prevents the second pressure relief mechanism 311 from being blocked by the partition beam 40 during actuation, preventing it from being unable to open or fully open. This, in turn, prevents the second battery cell 31 from being unable to vent or venting properly during thermal runaway, and prevents the internal pressure of the second battery cell 31 from being unable to be quickly released, potentially causing the outer shell of the second battery cell 31 to rupture or explode. Furthermore, this prevents the metal structure of the second pressure relief mechanism 311 from simultaneously contacting the outer shell of the second battery cell 31 and the partition beam 40 when the second pressure relief mechanism 311 is actuated. This could result in electrical connection when the metal structure of the second pressure relief mechanism 311 is in contact with both the outer shell of the second battery cell 31 and the partition beam 40. This could cause a short circuit between the second battery cells 31 when multiple second battery cells 31 are simultaneously electrically connected to the partition beam 40.

[0188] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7 The battery device 100 further includes a second thermal insulation pad 60 , which is disposed between the partition beam 40 and the second battery cell group 30 . The second thermal insulation pad 60 is provided with a second avoidance hole 61 , which is communicated with the second vent hole 404 .

[0189] The second thermal insulation pad 60 can be a thin plate with high temperature resistance and thermal insulation properties, such as an epoxy plate or a mica plate.

[0190] By disposing a second thermal insulation pad 60 between the partition beam 40 and the second battery cell group 30, the second thermal insulation pad 60 prevents heat generated by the second battery cell 31 in thermal runaway from being transferred to other battery cells via the partition beam 40, causing thermal diffusion. It also prevents heat from the exhaust discharged into the second collection chamber 402 from being transferred to other battery cells via the partition beam 40, causing thermal diffusion. The second avoidance hole 61 is provided to prevent the second pressure relief mechanism 311 from being blocked by the second thermal insulation pad 60 when it is activated.

[0191] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7 In a second projection plane perpendicular to the second direction y, the orthographic projection of the second avoidance hole 61 overlaps the orthographic projection of the second vent 404. For example, the shape of the second avoidance hole 61 can match the shape of the second vent 404, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the second avoidance hole 61 can be consistent with the cross-sectional area of ​​the second vent 404. In this case, the size of the second avoidance hole 61 is consistent with the size of the second vent 404.

[0192] By making the orthographic projection of the second avoidance hole 61 in the second projection plane cover the orthographic projection of the second vent hole 404 in the second projection plane, the second pressure relief mechanism 311 can be quickly opened to avoid being unable to open or unable to fully open due to being blocked by the second thermal insulation pad 60 when the second pressure relief mechanism 311 is actuated.

[0193] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7 The orthographic projection of the center of the second pressure relief mechanism 311 in the second projection plane, the orthographic projection of the center of the second vent hole 404 in the second projection plane, and the orthographic projection of the center of the second avoidance hole 61 in the second projection plane overlap to ensure that the emissions ejected from the second pressure relief mechanism 311 can quickly enter the second collecting chamber 402.

[0194] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 10-11 , and refer to Figures 19-26 , Figure 10 for Figure 7 A first structural diagram of the middle partition beam 40, Figure 11 for Figure 10 A schematic cross-sectional view of the middle partition beam 40, Figure 19 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a second structure of the partition beam 40 in some embodiments of the present application.
