AI Technical Summary
Existing cover plate assemblies have poor sealing performance due to insufficient contact area between the insulating adhesive layer and the cover plate or terminal post, which easily leads to battery leakage.
A cover plate assembly is designed, including a cover plate, an electrode post, and an insulating adhesive layer. The insulating adhesive layer is arranged in a ring shape and includes an adhesive layer body and an epitaxial layer. The adhesive layer forms a multi-layer structure at the contact between the cover plate and the electrode post, which increases the contact area and extends the water vapor flow path. The sealing performance is enhanced by setting multiple adhesive layers between the ring plate and the sealing plate.
By increasing the contact area between the insulating adhesive layer and the cover plate and terminals, the water vapor flow path is extended, significantly improving the sealing performance of the cover plate assembly and preventing battery leakage.

[0035] As an example, the columnar body includes a first column 22 arranged on one side of the ring plate 21 along the first direction, the first column 22 extends into the top opening 15 along the first direction, and the outer peripheral wall of the first column 22 is spaced apart from the inner wall of the top opening 15.

[0039] As an example, the third adhesive layer 33 has a thickness D along the radial direction of the ring plate, and D is 0.2-0.3 mm. In this embodiment, D is 0.2 mm. In this embodiment, the third adhesive layer 33 must have a certain thickness, otherwise the third adhesive layer 33 may be extruded and broken, or the third adhesive layer 33 is not thick enough to insulate the pole 2 and the cover plate 1, so that a short circuit phenomenon occurs between the cover plate 1 and the pole 2.
[0040] As an example, the side surface of the sealing plate 12 is flush with the surface of the cover plate 1. For aesthetic considerations, the upper side surface of the sealing plate 12 is flush with the upper side surface of the cover plate 1.
[0041] As an example, the ring plate 21 extends into the space between the sealing plate 12 and the bottom wall of the second groove 14 along the radial direction of the ring plate 21, that is, along the radial direction of the ring plate 21, and the extension distance is greater than 1.2 mm.
