[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are high-energy-density rechargeable batteries that store and release energy through the intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes. During charging, lithium ions are deintercalated from the positive electrode material, pass through the electrolyte and separator, and then intercalate into the negative electrode material. During discharge, lithium ions are released from the negative electrode material and reintercalated into the positive electrode material, releasing electrons and generating current for the external circuit. The reversible charge and discharge process of lithium-ion batteries gives lithium-ion batteries a long cycle life.

[0028] When in use, the battery cell 2 is connected to external circuits and electrical appliances via the electrode tabs 3. During charging, lithium ions are deintercalated from the positive electrode material in the battery cell 2, pass through the electrolyte and the separator, and are embedded in the negative electrode material. During discharging, lithium ions are released from the negative electrode material in the battery cell 2 and re-intercalated into the positive electrode material, while releasing electrons to generate current for use by the external circuit. The temperature sensor 402 uses this current to detect the surface temperature of the battery cell 2.

[0029] When the temperature sensor 402 detects that the surface temperature of the battery core 2 is abnormal and exceeds the threshold, the dual-axis motor 403 is started to rotate the first bevel threaded shafts 404 on both sides, so that the inner bevel threaded shaft 405 and the outer bevel threaded shaft 406 rotate. The rotation of the inner bevel threaded shaft 405 causes the blade slider 604 to rise and cut the perfluorohexanone capsule 605.

[0030] At the same time, the rotation of the first bevel threaded shaft 404 will also cause the pressure plate 606 to displace and squeeze the perfluorohexanone capsule 605 that has been scratched, so that the perfluorohexanone liquid in the perfluorohexanone capsule 605 flows out from the liquid outlet 603 and wraps and submerges the battery core 2. The perfluorohexanone liquid is completely squeezed out, and the sealing gasket 503 is completely inserted into the interior of the protective shell 1 and the inner liner 401. These two things are completed at the same time to isolate the battery core 2 from the air through the perfluorohexanone liquid. Perfluorohexanone is a non-conductive transparent liquid that is colorless and odorless at room temperature and is commonly used for battery fire extinguishing. It can quickly isolate the battery core 2 from external electrical appliances and air to reduce the probability of fire.

[0031] Through the above steps, by setting up the detection self-starting component, the shear partition component and the air isolation component, the surface temperature of the battery core 2 is constantly monitored. Once a temperature abnormality is detected, the battery core 2 is physically disconnected from the external electrical appliance to reduce the possibility of further heat increase. While the protective shell 1 is sealed, perfluorohexanone liquid commonly used for battery fire extinguishing is released to submerge the battery core 2 inside the protective shell 1, thereby isolating the battery core 2 from the air and significantly reducing the possibility of fire.
