[0045] Currently, if Figure 1 As shown, a battery generally includes a shell, a battery cell and a top cover assembly. The battery cell is arranged in the shell. The top cover assembly includes a cover plate 1, a pole 2 and an additional component installed on the cover plate 1. The cover plate 1 is arranged at the opening of the shell to seal the shell. The pole 2 is arranged through the cover plate 1. The tabs on the battery cell are electrically connected to the pole 2, thereby realizing electrical conduction between the inside and the outside of the battery.
[0046] The cover plate 1 is provided with a welding process hole 11, which provides a physical connection interface for mounting an additional component on the top cover assembly. The additional component is then welded and positioned on the cover plate 1 through the welding process hole 11. However, in the top cover assembly provided by the prior art, during the subsequent welding process of the additional component to the cover plate 1 through the welding process hole 11, the material of the cover plate 1 near the welding point is affected by the high temperature and melts, causing the material of the cover plate 1 around the welding process hole 11 to flow toward the center of the welding process hole 11. This causes deformation of the cover plate 1 near the welding process hole 11, which reduces the performance of the cover plate 1.
[0047] In order to solve the above technical problems, this embodiment provides a cover plate 1, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the cover plate 1 is further provided with a sink 12, which is arranged around the periphery of the welding process hole 11. The sink 12 blocks the flow path between the welding process hole 11 and the area of the cover plate 1 outside the sink 12. When additional components are welded to the welding process hole 11, only the material of the cover plate 1 within the sink 12 and close to the center of the welding process hole 11 is affected. There is no possibility of material in the area of the cover plate 1 outside the sink 12 melting or even moving toward the center of the welding process hole 11. This effectively reduces the deformation area of the cover plate 1 near the welding process hole 11 and improves the geometric stability and performance of the cover plate 1.
[0048] In this embodiment, the horizontal cross-section of the sink 12 is annular, that is, the sink 12 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the welding process hole 11. Compared with the sink 12 composed of multiple annular trough structures arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction, it can not only reduce the difficulty of production and manufacturing, but also ensure that only the cover plate 1 material in the internal area of the sink 12 melts and moves toward the center of the welding process hole 11, which facilitates the control of the welding process effect and quality.
[0049] In this embodiment, the vertical cross-sectional area of the trough 12 gradually decreases along the direction from the opening of the trough 12 to the bottom of the trough 12. In this way, when the side wall material of the trough 12 close to the center of the welding process hole 11 melts, due to the gradual decrease in cross-sectional area, the side wall of the trough 12 away from the center of the welding process hole 11 will be subjected to less stress transfer, so that it can better maintain its shape and reduce the possibility of its deformation, thereby reducing the risk of melting and deformation of the material in the cover plate 1 area outside the trough 12.
[0050] In this embodiment, reference Figure 5 As shown, the welding process hole 11 includes a first hole 111, which is arranged through the cover plate 1 and is used to inject electrolyte into the battery shell; the additional components include a liquid injection sealing nail (not shown in the figure) and an explosion-proof valve assembly 31, the liquid injection sealing nail is arranged in the first hole 111, and is sealed and fitted with the inner wall of the first hole 111 and welded, and the explosion-proof valve assembly 31 is installed on the cover plate 1 so that when the internal air pressure of the battery is large, the battery will open the explosion-proof valve and discharge the gas out of the shell; the sink 12 includes a first groove 121, the first groove 121 is annular in structure, and is circumferentially arranged around the first hole 111.
[0051] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, during the process of welding the liquid injection sealing nail, the first groove 121 can cut off the possibility of movement of the cover plate 1 material between the first groove 121 and the explosion-proof valve assembly 31, and will only affect the cover plate 1 material between the first groove 121 and the first hole 111 when welding the liquid injection sealing nail, thereby eliminating the possibility that the cover plate 1 material between the first hole 111 and the explosion-proof valve assembly 31 will all move toward the center of the first hole 111 due to the welding of the liquid injection sealing nail, thereby causing poor welding of the explosion-proof valve assembly 31.
[0052] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first hole 111 includes a first stepped hole 1111 and a second stepped hole 1112. The first stepped hole 1111 and the second stepped hole 1112 are arranged in sequence along the direction from the top surface of the cover plate 1 to the bottom surface of the cover plate 1, and the aperture of the first stepped hole 1111 is larger than the aperture of the second stepped hole 1112. The liquid injection sealing nail is T-shaped and includes a large diameter section and a small diameter section. After the liquid injection sealing nail is inserted into the first hole 111, the large diameter section is sealed and fitted with the inner wall of the first stepped hole 1111 and welded, and the small diameter section is sealed and fitted with the inner wall of the second stepped hole 1112, and the second stepped surface is fitted and connected to the first stepped surface. Through the above arrangement, not only can the sealing surface area between the liquid injection sealing nail and the first hole 111 be effectively increased, thereby improving the sealing effect, but also the liquid injection sealing nail can be prevented from sinking and moving during the welding process, thereby ensuring the welding quality of the liquid injection sealing nail.
[0053] In this embodiment, to ensure that the first groove 121 maintains its shape and reduces the possibility of deformation during welding, the horizontal cross-sectional area of the first groove 121 gradually decreases along the direction from the top surface of the cover plate 1 to the bottom surface of the cover plate 1. Exemplarily, the top diameter d1 of the first groove 121 ranges from d1 greater than or equal to 1 mm to less than or equal to 2 mm. For example, d1 is 1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.8 mm, or 2 mm. The bottom diameter d2 of the first groove 121 ranges from d2 greater than or equal to 0.6 mm to less than 1 mm. For example, d2 is 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm, or 0.9 mm.
[0054] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the depth of the first groove 121 is h1, and h1 is greater than or equal to 0.2 mm and less than or equal to 0.5 mm. For example, h1 is 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm, 0.4 mm, or 0.5 mm. By setting the depth of the first groove 121 within the above range, it is not only possible to prevent the depth of the first groove 121 from exceeding the threshold and affecting the structural strength of the cover plate 1, but also to ensure that the material of the cover plate 1 in the area between the first groove 121 and the first hole 111 can respond in time during welding, melt, and move toward the first hole 111, thereby reducing the degree of impact on the material of the cover plate 1 in the area between the first groove 121 and the explosion-proof valve assembly 31.
[0055] Furthermore, in this embodiment, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the radial distance between the first groove 121 and the first hole 111 is m1, which is greater than or equal to 2 mm. The size of m1 is determined based on the external dimensions of the cover plate 1. By setting the radial distance between the first groove 121 and the first hole 111 within the above range, the impact of welding on the cover plate 1 material in the area between the first groove 121 and the explosion-proof valve assembly 31 can be further reduced, thereby ensuring the reliability of the sealed installation of the explosion-proof valve assembly 31 on the cover plate 1.
[0056] In this embodiment, reference Figure 6 As shown, the welding process hole 11 also includes a second hole 112, which is provided through the cover plate 1. The explosion-proof valve assembly 31 is provided in the second hole 112 and is sealed and welded to the inner wall of the second hole 112. The sink 12 includes a second groove 122, which is provided around the second hole 112. Preferably, the second hole 112 and the second groove 122 are both waist-shaped annular structures to match the shape of the explosion-proof valve assembly 31.
[0057] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, during the welding process of the explosion-proof valve assembly 31, the second groove 122 can cut off the possibility of the cover plate 1 material moving between the second groove 122 and the edge of the cover plate 1. When welding the explosion-proof valve assembly 31, only the cover plate 1 material between the second groove 122 and the second hole 112 will be affected, thereby eliminating the possibility of deformation of the cover plate 1 caused by the entire cover plate 1 material between the second hole 112 and the edge of the cover plate 1 moving toward the center of the second hole 112 due to the welding of the explosion-proof valve assembly 31. It should be noted that when welding the explosion-proof valve assembly 31, the length dimension of the cover plate 1 will not be substantially affected. Therefore, the main effect of the arrangement of the above-mentioned second groove 122 is to ensure that the width of the cover plate 1 will not suddenly shrink and deform, thereby avoiding structural failure of the cover plate 1, maintaining stable welding quality between the cover plate 1 and the battery shell, and ensuring that the weld is uniform and defect-free, thereby ensuring the sealing safety of the battery.
[0058] In this embodiment, the horizontal cross-sectional area of the second groove 122 gradually decreases from the bottom surface of the cover plate 1 to the top surface of the cover plate 1. For example, the bottom diameter d3 of the second groove 122 ranges from d3 greater than or equal to 1 mm to less than or equal to 2 mm. For example, d3 is 1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.8 mm, or 2 mm. The top diameter d4 of the second groove 122 ranges from d2 greater than or equal to 0.6 mm to less than 1 mm. For example, d4 is 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm, or 0.9 mm.
[0059] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the depth of the second groove 122 is h2, and h2 is greater than or equal to 0.2 mm and less than or equal to 0.5 mm. For example, h2 is 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm, 0.4 mm, or 0.5 mm. Similar to the principle of the first groove 121, by setting the depth of the second groove 122 within the above-mentioned range, it is possible not only to ensure that the structural strength of the cover plate 1 will not be reduced due to the excessive depth of the second groove 122, but also to enable the material of the cover plate 1 in the area between the second groove 122 and the second hole 112 to melt in time and move to the second hole 112 when welding the explosion-proof valve assembly 31, thereby preventing the melting and movement of the material of the cover plate 1 in the area between the second groove 122 and the explosion-proof valve assembly 31.
[0060] Furthermore, refer to Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the radial distance between the second groove 122 and the second hole 112 is m2, which is greater than or equal to 2 mm. The radial distance between the second groove 122 and the second hole 112 can be determined based on the external dimensions of the cover plate 1 and is not limited in this embodiment. By setting the radial distance between the second groove 122 and the second hole 112 within the above range, the impact of welding on the cover plate 1 material in the area between the second groove 122 and the edge of the cover plate 1 can be further reduced, thereby maintaining the dimensions of the cover plate 1 stable and preventing sudden shrinkage and deformation.
[0061] This embodiment also provides a top cover assembly, which has a square structure and is applied to square batteries. The top cover assembly includes a positive electrode post 21, a negative electrode post 22, an additional assembly, and the cover plate 1 of the above embodiment. The two ends of the surface of the cover plate 1 are penetrated by a post hole 13. The positive electrode post 21 is inserted into one of the post holes 13 for electrically connecting to the positive electrode tab of the battery cell. The negative electrode post 22 is inserted into the other post hole 13 for electrically connecting to the negative electrode tab of the battery cell so as to charge or discharge through the positive electrode post 21 and the negative electrode post 22. The additional assembly includes multiple components, such as a positive electrode aluminum block 32, a negative electrode aluminum block 33, a positive electrode upper plastic part 34, a negative electrode upper plastic part 35, a lower plastic part 36, a positive electrode sealing ring 37, a negative electrode sealing ring 38, a liquid injection sealing nail, and an explosion-proof valve assembly 31. Each component in the additional assembly is a commonly used component of square batteries in this field, so this embodiment will not further elaborate on the structure and function of the above components.
[0062] The above-mentioned cover plate 1 is provided with a sink groove 12 on the periphery of the external welding process hole 11, so that the sink groove 12 can block the flow path between the welding process hole 11 and the area of the cover plate 1 outside the sink groove 12. When the additional components are welded, only the material of the cover plate 1 in the internal area of the sink groove 12 and close to the center of the welding process hole 11 will be affected. There is no possibility that the material of the cover plate 1 outside the sink groove 12 will melt or even move toward the center of the welding process hole 11, thereby effectively reducing the deformation area of the cover plate 1 near the welding process hole 11, improving the geometric stability and performance of the cover plate 1, and effectively increasing the production quality and stable reliability of the top cover assembly.
[0063] This embodiment also provides a battery comprising a housing, a battery cell, and the top cover assembly of the above embodiment, wherein the battery cell is disposed within the housing. Because the battery is manufactured using the above-described top cover assembly, the welding quality between the housing and the top cover assembly is excellent, ensuring the sealing and safety of the battery during use, extending the battery's service life, and saving costs.
