The first channel 333 passes through the first adapter 33 along the first direction Z, enabling medium flow between the electrode body region and the explosion-proof valve 22 region without hindering exhaust from the electrode body. Gas generated by the electrode body can flow to the explosion-proof valve 22 region through the first channel 333, thereby reducing gas accumulation in the electrode body region, inhibiting shell expansion, facilitating the opening of the explosion-proof valve 22, and improving safety.

The first channel 333 passes through the first adapter 33 along the first direction Z, enabling the flow of medium (gas and / or liquid) between the area where the electrode body is located and the area where the explosion-proof valve 22 is located, without hindering the exhaust of the electrode body. The gas generated by the electrode body can be passed to the area where the explosion-proof valve 22 is located through the first channel 333, thereby reducing gas accumulation in the area where the electrode body is located, suppressing shell expansion, facilitating the opening of the explosion-proof valve 22, and improving safety.
[0077] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 7 As shown, the first adapter 33 includes a first collecting part 332 and a first adapter part 331.

The area of the first main channel 3331 is larger than that of the first auxiliary channel 3332. The first adapter part 331 is respectively connected to the first collecting part 332 and the shell.
[0078] The first current collecting portion 332 and the first adapter portion 331 can be integrally formed or separately formed and then connected. The first adapter 33 serves as a conductor. The first current collecting portion 332 is connected to the tab (either the positive or negative tab), collecting the current from the tab and transferring it to the first adapter portion 331. The first adapter portion 331 is connected to the housing (either the cover plate 23 or the electrode terminal 21), transmitting current to the housing.
[0079] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, a first channel 333 is provided on the first flow collecting portion 332, which collects current without obstructing the exhaust of the electrode assembly. The first channel 333 comprises a first main channel 3331 and a first auxiliary channel 3332.

In the first direction Z, the first adapter portion 331 is located between the first current collecting portion 332 and the explosion-proof valve 22. The first adapter portion 331 contacts the housing, while the first current collecting portion 332 does not. The first current collecting portion 332 collects the current from the tabs and transmits it to the housing (the cover plate 23 or the electrode terminal 21) through the first adapter portion 331.
[0082] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the first collecting part 332 is fan-shaped, and the first adapter part 331 is connected to the central angle of the first collecting part 332, which can reduce the cross-sectional area at the junction of the first adapter part 331 and the first collecting part 332, so that the first adapter 33 can safely transmit current when the current is normal, and can fuse when the current is abnormal (significantly increased) to reduce the risk and achieve power-off protection.

[0084] The first auxiliary channel 3332 is located between the first main channel 3331 and the first adapter 331. There can be one or more first auxiliary channels 3332. When there is one first auxiliary channel 3332, its shape can be any of rectangular, circular, triangular, trapezoidal, or rhombus-shaped. When there are multiple first auxiliary channels 3332, their shapes can be any combination of the aforementioned shapes. There can be only one first main channel 3331. The arc center of the first main channel 3331 coincides with the axis of the first manifold 332, and the central angle of the first main channel 3331 is smaller than the central angle of the first manifold 332.
[0085] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the first main channel 3331 is arc-shaped, with the center of the arc coinciding with the axis of the first collecting portion 332. This increases the span of the first collecting portion 332 and facilitates exhaust from the electrode body. The first auxiliary channel 3332 is located between the first main channel 3331 and the first adapter portion 331, thereby increasing the exhaust path and further facilitating exhaust from the electrode body.

[0088] The second adapter 34 is spaced apart from the first adapter 33, and may be in the order of the cover plate 23, the first adapter 33, the second adapter 34, and the electrode assembly in the first direction Z, or in the order of the cover plate 23, the second adapter 34, the first adapter 33, and the electrode assembly in the first direction Z, or the first adapter 33 and the second adapter 34 may be spaced apart on a plane perpendicular to the first direction Z.
[0089] The first adapter 33 is connected to the housing and the tab, respectively. The second adapter 34 is connected to the housing and the tab, respectively. When connected, if the first adapter 33 is connected to the positive tab, the second adapter 34 is connected to the negative tab; if the first adapter 33 is connected to the negative tab, the second adapter 34 is connected to the positive tab. If the first adapter 33 is connected to the electrode terminal 21, the second adapter 34 is connected to the cover plate 23; if the first adapter 33 is connected to the cover plate 23, the second adapter 34 is connected to the electrode terminal 21.
[0090] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the adapter assembly 3 includes a first adapter 33 and a second adapter 34. Both first and second adapters 33 and 34 are located on the same side of the electrode body. Accordingly, the positive and negative electrode tabs are connected to the same end of the electrode body, which can reduce the space occupied by the tabs and thus improve the energy density of the battery cell. In addition, the second adapter 34 is provided with a second channel 343 to facilitate exhaust from the electrode body.
[0091] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 8 As shown, the second adapter 34 includes a second collecting part 342 and a second adapter part 341. The second collecting part 342 is connected to the pole ear. The second channel 343 is located on the second collecting part 342. The second channel 343 includes a second main channel 3431 and a second auxiliary channel 3432. Along the center to the outer edge of the second collecting part 342, there are the second auxiliary channel 3432 and the second main channel 3431 in sequence. The area of the second main channel 3431 is larger than that of the second auxiliary channel 3432. Along the first direction Z, the second adapter part 341 is located between the second collecting part 342 and the explosion-proof valve 22, and is respectively connected to the second collecting part 342 and the shell.
[0092] The second current collecting part 342 and the second adapter part 341 can be integrally formed or separately formed and then connected. The second current collecting part serves as a conductor. In the first direction Z, the second adapter part 341 is located between the second current collecting part 342 and the explosion-proof valve 22. The second adapter part 341 contacts the housing (electrode terminal 21 or cover plate 23), while the second current collecting part 342 does not contact the housing. The second current collecting part 342 is connected to the electrode tab, and the second adapter part 341 is connected to the housing. The second current collecting part 342 can collect the current from the electrode tab and transfer it to the housing through the second adapter part 341.
[0093] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, a second channel 343 is provided on the second flow collecting portion 342, which collects current without hindering the exhaust of the electrode assembly. The second channel 343 comprises a second main channel 3431 and a second auxiliary channel 3432. This dual-channel design not only increases the flow path for the medium but also provides a dual safety mechanism for facilitating the exhaust of the electrode assembly. The area of the second main channel 3431 is larger than that of the second auxiliary channel 3432, which improves the flow of the medium.
[0094] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 8 As shown, the second collecting part 342 is fan-shaped, and an avoidance groove is provided at the central angle of the fan, and the avoidance groove is used to avoid the first adapter 33; the second adapter part 341 is connected to the arc edge of the second collecting part 342, and the second adapter part 341 is circular, and the axis coincides with the axis of the second collecting part 342.
[0095] The central angle of the sector is provided with an avoidance groove to avoid the first adapter portion 331 of the first current collecting member. The second adapter portion 341 is integrally formed with the second current collecting portion 342. The second adapter portion 341 is connected to the arc edge of the second current collecting portion 342. The second current collecting portion 342 collects the current and transfers it to the second adapter portion 341.
[0096] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the second current collecting portion 342 is fan-shaped to facilitate current collection. The second adapter portion 341 is annular, coaxially arranged with the second current collecting portion 342, and connected to the arc edge of the second current collecting portion 342. Therefore, the portion of the second adapter portion 341 not connected to the second current collecting portion 342 has a small cross-section. This allows the second adapter 34 to safely transmit current when the current is normal, and to melt due to Joule heating when the current is abnormal (suddenly increased), reducing risks.
[0097] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 8 As shown, the second main channel 3431 is arc-shaped, and the center of the arc coincides with the axis of the second collecting portion 342; the second auxiliary channel 3432 is rectangular, circular, triangular, trapezoidal, diamond-shaped or any one or a combination thereof.
[0098] Along the radial direction of the second collecting section 342, from the center to the outer edge, there are, in order, the second auxiliary channel 3432 and the second main channel 3431. There can be one or more second auxiliary channels 3432. When there is one second auxiliary channel 3432, its shape can be any one of a rectangle, a circle, a triangle, a trapezoid, and a diamond; when there are multiple second auxiliary channels 3432, their shape can be any combination of the above shapes. There can be one second main channel 3431, the arc center of the second main channel 3431 coincides with the axis of the second collecting section 342, and the central angle of the second main channel 3431 is smaller than the central angle of the second collecting section 342.
[0099] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the second main channel 3431 is arc-shaped, with the center of the arc coinciding with the axis of the second manifold 342. This increases the span of the second manifold 342 and facilitates exhaust of the electrode body. The second auxiliary channel 3432 is located between the avoidance groove and the first main channel 3331, providing an additional exhaust path between the second main channel 3431 and the avoidance groove, further facilitating exhaust of the electrode body.
[0100] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 5 A schematic structural diagram of the first insulating member provided in some embodiments of the present application.
[0101] In some embodiments of the present application, the adapter assembly 3 also includes a first insulating part 31, the first insulating part 31 includes a mounting portion 311, the mounting portion 311 is respectively connected to the first collecting portion 332 and the second collecting portion 342, isolating the first adapter 33 and the second adapter 34; a third channel 313 is provided on the mounting portion 311, and the third channel 313 passes through the mounting portion 311 along the first direction Z.
[0102] When the mounting portion 311 isolates the first adapter 33 and the second adapter 34, it may be the first collecting portion 332, the mounting portion 311, the second collecting portion 342, and the electrode body in sequence along the first direction Z; it may be the second collecting portion 342, the mounting portion 311, the first collecting portion 332, and the electrode body in sequence along the first direction Z; or it may be that on a plane perpendicular to the first direction Z, the mounting portion 311 is located between the first collecting portion 332 and the second collecting portion 342.
[0103] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the adapter assembly 3 is provided with a first insulating member 31, which provides a mounting location for the first adapter 33 and the second adapter 34. The first insulating member 31 physically isolates the first adapter 33 from the second adapter 34, thereby improving reliability. The third channel 313 extends through the mounting portion 311 along the first direction Z, enabling medium flow between the area where the electrode body is located and the area where the explosion-proof valve 22 is located, thereby facilitating the exhaust of the electrode body to reach the explosion-proof valve 22.
[0104] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 As shown, there are multiple third channels 313, and in the second direction Y, the multiple third channels 313 are symmetrically arranged, and the second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction Z; the third channel 313 includes a third main channel 3131 and a third auxiliary channel 3132, and along the center to the outer edge of the mounting portion 311, there are the third auxiliary channel 3132 and the third main channel 3131 in sequence, and the area of the third main channel 3131 is larger than the area of the third auxiliary channel 3132.
[0105] For example, there may be two third channels 313, which are symmetrical in the second direction Y. That is, within the plane where the mounting portion 311 is located, the two third channels 313 may overlap when folded in half perpendicular to the second direction Y. Each third channel 313 includes a third main channel 3131 and a third auxiliary channel 3132. The number of third main channels 3131 may be one or more, and the number of third auxiliary channels 3132 may be one or more.
[0106] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, multiple third channels 313 are symmetrically arranged to improve medium circulation and facilitate exhaust from various locations on the end face of the electrode body (the end face of the electrode body facing the third channels 313). The third main channel 3131, serving as the primary exhaust path, has an area larger than that of the third auxiliary channel 3132, further improving exhaust efficiency.
[0107] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 As shown, the third main channel 3131 is arc-shaped, and the center of the arc coincides with the axis of the mounting portion 311; the third auxiliary channel 3132 is rectangular, circular, triangular, trapezoidal, diamond-shaped or any one of their combinations.

[0109] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the third main channel 3131 is arc-shaped, which can increase the span on the mounting portion 311 and facilitate exhaust of the electrode body. The third auxiliary channel 3132, as a supplement to the third main channel 3131, can further facilitate exhaust of the electrode body.
[0110] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, along the third direction X, the mounting portion 311 is located between the first collecting portion 332 and the second collecting portion 342 , and the third direction X, the second direction Y and the first direction Z are all perpendicular to each other.

The first collecting section 332 and the second collecting section 342 are fan-shaped, and the mounting section 311 is connected between the first collecting section 332 and the second collecting section 342. The mounting section 311, the first collecting section 332, and the second collecting section 342 form a circular plate that blocks the electrode body from the cover plate 23. The first channel 333, the second channel 343, and the third channel 313 each allow exhaust gas from the electrode body to pass through.
[0112] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, along the third direction X, the mounting portion 311 is located between the first current collecting portion 332 and the second current collecting portion 342, and the first current collecting portion 332, the second current collecting portion 342, and the mounting portion 311 are on the same plane, which can reduce the space occupied by the adapter assembly 3 in the first direction Z, thereby improving the energy density of the battery cell.
[0113] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the first collecting part 332 and the second collecting part 342 are both provided with overlapping edges 334; along the first direction Z, the overlapping edge 334 is located between the explosion-proof valve 22 and the mounting part 311, and is in contact with the mounting part 311; the mounting part 311 is provided with a plug-in protrusion 3111, and the overlapping edge 334 is provided with a plug-in hole 3341, and the plug-in protrusion 3111 is plug-connected with the plug-in hole 3341.
[0114] Mounting portion 311 is provided with a plug-in protrusion 3111, which can be cylindrical, rectangular, conical, or wedge-shaped. Insertion hole 3341 matches plug-in protrusion 3111. Overlapping edge 334 overlaps mounting portion 311, while plug-in protrusion 3111 is inserted into insertion hole 3341, plugging into insertion hole 3341. When plugging protrusion 3111 and insertion hole 3341 are plugged together, they can achieve a clearance fit, a transition fit, or an interference fit.
[0115] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the first collecting part 332 and the second collecting part 342 are both overlapped and connected with the mounting part 311 through the overlapping edge 334, so that the mounting part 311 can provide the first collecting part 332 and the second collecting part 342 with a limit in the first direction Z; the first collecting part 332 and the second collecting part 342 are both plug-connected with the mounting part 311, so that the mounting part 311 can provide the first collecting part 332 and the second collecting part 342 with a limit in the second direction Y and the third direction X, thereby fixing the relative positions of the first collecting part and the second collecting part, thereby improving the reliability of the connection.
[0116] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the first insulating member 31 also includes a support portion 312, which is annular and connected to the outer peripheral surface of the mounting portion 311; along the first direction Z, the second adapter portion 341 is located between the explosion-proof valve 22 and the support portion 312, and the support portion 312 is in contact with the second adapter portion 341.
[0117] The mounting portion 311 and support portion 312 are integrally formed.

The first adapter 33 is mounted within the first mounting groove, the second manifold 342 of the second adapter 34 is located within the second mounting groove, and the second adapter portion 341 of the second adapter 34 is in contact with the support portion 312.
[0118] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the support portion 312 is connected to the outer circumference of the mounting portion 311, which can improve the structural strength of the first insulating member 31. In addition, the support portion 312 is in contact with the second adapter portion 341, providing support for the second adapter portion 341, thereby improving the connection strength between the second adapter portion 341 and the housing.
[0119] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a schematic structural diagram of the second insulating member provided in some embodiments of the present application.
[0120] In some embodiments of the present application, the adapter assembly 3 also includes a second insulating member 32, which is located between the explosion-proof valve 22 and the overlapping edge 334 along the first direction Z; the second insulating member 32 is annular, with an avoidance hole 322 provided in the center, and the first adapter portion 331 is inserted into the avoidance hole 322; a fourth channel 321 is provided on the second insulating member 32, and the fourth channel 321 passes through the second insulating member 32 along the first direction Z.
[0121] In the first direction Z, the second insulating member 32 is located between the explosion-proof valve 22 and the overlapping edge 334, and the second insulating member 32 is in contact with the overlapping edge 334. A clearance hole 322 is provided in the center of the second insulating member 32. The first adapter 331 passes through the clearance hole 322 and can be connected to the housing (electrode terminal 21 or cover plate 23). The second adapter 341 is located outside the circumference of the second insulating member 32.
[0122] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the second insulating member 32 is located between the explosion-proof valve 22 and the overlapping edge 334 in the first direction Z, and can press the first adapter 33 and the second adapter 34 against the first insulating member 31 to prevent the overlapping edge 334 from falling off the mounting portion 311. The fourth channel 321 penetrates the second insulating member 32 along the first direction Z. Thus, the medium in the area where the explosion-proof valve 22 is located and the area where the electrode assembly is located can flow through the fourth channel 321, facilitating the flow of exhaust gas from the electrode body into the area where the explosion-proof valve 22 is located.
[0123] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 As shown, the fourth channel 321 is arc-shaped, and the center of the arc coincides with the axis of the second insulating member 32; there are multiple fourth channels 321, and they are distributed in a circular array around the axis of the second insulating member 32; along the first direction Z, the projection of the fourth channel 321 at least partially overlaps with the projection of the first channel 333, the projection of the second channel 343, and the projection of the third channel 313.

Exhaust gas from the electrode body can pass through the first channel 333 and / or the second channel 343 and / or the third channel 313, and then enter the area where the explosion-proof valve 22 is located through the fourth channel 321. When projected along the first direction Z, the projections of the multiple fourth channels 321 can overlap with the projection of the first main channel 3331, or the projection of the fourth channel 321 can cover the projection of the first main channel 3331; can overlap with the projection of the second main channel 3431, or the projection of the fourth channel 321 can cover the projection of the second main channel 3431; and can overlap with the projection of the third main channel 3131, or the projection of the fourth channel 321 can cover the projection of the third main channel 3131.
[0125] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, multiple fourth channels 321 are distributed in a circular array around the axis of the second insulating member 32, facilitating exhaust from various locations on the end surface of the electrode body. In the first direction Z, the projection of the fourth channels 321 at least partially overlaps with the projections of the first channel 333, the second channel 343, and the third channel 313. Consequently, the fourth channels 321 can directly communicate with the first channel 333, the second channel 343, and the third channel 313, reducing medium flow resistance and facilitating exhaust from the electrode body.
[0126] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 3 As shown, the shell is cylindrical; the tabs include a positive tab and a negative tab.

The first adapter 33 is made of aluminum, with the first adapter 331 connected to the electrode terminal 21, which serves as the positive electrode. The second adapter 34 is made of copper, with the second adapter 341 connected to the cover plate 23, which serves as the negative electrode.
[0128] In the technical solution of the above embodiment, the battery cell is a cylindrical battery with positive and negative electrodes on the same side, the electrode terminal 21 is the positive electrode, and the cover plate 23 is the negative electrode. The gas generated by the electrode body can enter the area where the explosion-proof valve 22 is located through the adapter component 3, making it easier to open the explosion-proof valve 22.
