[0036] The cover plate assembly provided in this embodiment can realize riveting fixation of the pins, so that the cover plate assembly has good insulation and sealing properties and low cost.
[0037] Specific as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the cover plate assembly includes a cover plate 100, a terminal 200, and a pin 300. The cover plate 100 is provided with a first mounting hole 101. The terminal 200 includes a column 210, a base 220, and a first connecting portion 230, which are connected in sequence from top to bottom. The radial dimensions of the column 210 and the first connecting portion 230 are both smaller than the radial dimensions of the base 220. The column 210 passes through the first mounting hole 101, and the base 220 abuts the bottom of the cover plate 100. The pin 300 is sleeved on the first connecting portion 230 and abuts the bottom of the base 220. The bottom edge of the first connecting portion 230 is turned outward to form a rivet 240, which is riveted to the bottom of the pin 300.
[0038] Based on the above design, the cover plate 100 is provided with a first mounting hole 101. The pole 200 includes a column 210, a base plate 220, and a first connecting portion 230. The column 210 is provided with the first mounting hole 101, and the base plate 220 abuts the bottom of the cover plate 100. This allows the pole 200 to be inserted upward through the first mounting hole 101 from the bottom of the cover plate 100, thereby enabling the pole 200 to be assembled from the bottom up. The pin 300 is sleeved on the first connecting portion 230 and abuts the bottom of the base plate 220. The bottom edge of the first connecting portion 230 is turned outward to form a rivet 240, which is riveted to the bottom of the pin 300, achieving a riveted connection between the pin 300 and the pole 200, thereby securing the pin 300. Compared to the laser welding method used in the prior art to secure the pin 300, this riveting method can avoid the effects of laser welding heat on insulating components and seals, improve the insulation and sealing performance of the cover assembly, and reduce costs.
[0039] It should be noted that since both the pole 200 and the pin 300 are conductors, riveting can also achieve electrical connection between the pole 200 and the pin 300. Furthermore, the first connecting portion 230 can be a hollow tubular structure, which helps reduce the weight of the pole 200 and, in turn, the weight of the cover assembly, thereby better meeting the battery energy density requirements.
[0040] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, a first groove 301 is provided at the bottom of the pin 300, and the rivet portion 240 is riveted to the first groove 301, thereby increasing the riveting strength between the pin 300 and the first connecting portion 230. The thickness of the rivet portion 240 is less than or equal to the depth of the first groove 301, which helps to reduce the overall thickness of the cover assembly and improve the energy density of the battery.
[0041] In this embodiment, the thickness of the rivet portion 240 is smaller than the thickness of the column 210 , which can reduce the hardness of the rivet portion 240 , facilitate the forming of the rivet portion 240 when assembling the pole 200 , and reduce the difficulty of operation for the staff.
[0042] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the radial dimension of the riveted portion 240 is also smaller than the radial dimension of the column 210 .
[0043] In order to insulate and isolate the pole 200 from the cover plate 100, and to increase the sealing performance of the cover plate assembly, the cover plate assembly also includes a sealing ring 400, which is sleeved on the column 210, with a portion of the sealing ring 400 clamped between the column 210 and the wall of the first mounting hole 101, and another portion of the sealing ring 400 clamped between the cover plate 100 and the chassis 220.
[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the cover assembly further includes an aluminum block 500 , which is provided with a second mounting hole 501 . The aluminum block 500 is disposed above the cover plate 100 , and the column 210 passes through the second mounting hole 501 and is connected to the aluminum block 500 to increase the fixing performance of the pole 200 .
[0045] Furthermore, a second connecting portion 250 is provided around the outer periphery of the upper end of the column 210 , and the second mounting hole 501 is a stepped hole. The pole 210 and the aluminum block 500 are riveted together through the second connecting portion 250 and the stepped hole, thereby increasing the fixity of the pole 200 .
[0046] In this embodiment, the upper end surface of the second connecting portion 250 is lower than the upper end surface of the aluminum block 500 , that is, the pole 200 is embedded in the aluminum block 500 , thereby increasing protection for the pole 200 .
[0047] Alternatively, as Figure 1 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the cover assembly also includes a rubber coating 600, which is located on the upper end surface of the cover sheet 100. The rubber coating 600 is sleeved on the column 210 and wrapped around the outside of the aluminum block 500, insulating and isolating the aluminum block 500 from the cover sheet 100, thereby increasing the insulation and sealing performance of the cover assembly.
[0048] It should be noted that the sealing ring 400 is partially sandwiched between the column 210 and the rubber coating 600 .
[0049] Furthermore, in order to increase the connection strength between the rubber coating 600 and the aluminum block 500, a plurality of first pins 610 are provided on one of the bottom of the aluminum block 500 and the inner end surface of the rubber coating 600, and a plurality of first sockets 502 are provided on the other, and the first pins 610 are inserted into the corresponding first sockets 502.
[0050] The number of the first plug posts 610 can be one, two, three, four, etc., which is not specifically limited in the present invention and can be set according to actual needs.
[0051] In this embodiment, the first plug post 610 is located on the inner end surface of the rubber coating 600 , and the first plug hole 502 is located in the aluminum block 500 , thereby reducing the weight of the aluminum block 500 .
[0052] Similarly, in order to increase the connection strength between the rubber laminating 600 and the cover plate 100 , a plurality of second plug posts 620 are provided on one of the bottom of the rubber laminating 600 and the upper end surface of the cover plate 100 , and a plurality of second insertion holes 102 are provided on the other end, and the second plug posts 620 are inserted into the second insertion holes 102 .
[0053] The number of the second plug posts 620 can be one, two, three, four, etc., which is not specifically limited in the present invention and can be set according to actual needs.
[0054] In this embodiment, the second plug post 620 is located at the bottom of the rubber package 600 , and the second plug hole 102 is located on the upper end surface of the cover plate 100 , thereby reducing the weight of the cover plate 100 .
[0055] It should be noted that the second insertion holes 102 are arranged at intervals along the outer circumference of the first mounting hole 101 , and each second insertion hole 102 is directly opposite to the corresponding first insertion hole 502 .
[0056] In this embodiment, there are four second insertion holes 102 , and the four second insertion holes 102 are symmetrical about the center of the first mounting hole 101 .
[0057] Furthermore, a first boss 110 is provided on the upper end surface of the cover plate 100 along the outer circumference of the first mounting hole 101, and the second insertion hole 102 is located on the first boss 110, thereby increasing the structural strength around the first mounting hole 101 of the cover plate 100 and compensating for the structural strength loss caused by the setting of the second insertion hole 102.
[0058] Continue as Figure 1 As shown, the cover assembly also includes a lower plastic 700, which is provided with a third mounting hole. The lower plastic 700 is clamped between the cover plate 100 and the pin 300, insulating and isolating the cover plate 100, and the chassis 220 is connected to the lower plastic 700 through the third mounting hole.
[0059] In this embodiment, a second groove is provided at the bottom of the cover plate 100 along the outer circumference of the first mounting hole 101, and a second boss is provided on the upper end surface of the lower plastic 700. The second boss is clamped in the second groove, thereby increasing the connection strength between the lower plastic 700 and the cover plate 100 and also increasing the insulation isolation of the cover plate 100.
[0060] This embodiment also provides a battery cell with good insulation and sealing properties and low cost.
[0061] Specifically, the battery cell includes a cell, a housing, and the aforementioned cover assembly, wherein the cell is located within the housing and the cover assembly covers the housing opening. Due to the good insulation and sealing performance and low cost of the cover assembly, the battery cell has good insulation and sealing performance and low cost.
[0062] The cover plate assembly in this embodiment is square. In other embodiments, the cover plate assembly can also be circular, oval, etc., and the present invention does not make specific restrictions on this.
[0063] In this embodiment, the housing is a pole cylinder structure. In other embodiments, it can also be other structural forms, which are not specifically limited by the present invention.
