TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to lithium battery technical field, especially a kind of power type cylindrical battery busbar structure and cylindrical battery. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, with the rapid development of new energy industry, the energy density, safety performance, fast charging performance and other requirements of lithium ion battery are further improved, and large cylindrical battery, as a kind of widely recognized solution, welcomes broad market space.
[0003] There are mainly two welding methods between the pole of the existing cylindrical battery and the busbar, one is to use conductive handle to weld and connect, but the cross-sectional area of the conductive handle is small, which causes the internal resistance of the battery to be large, if the battery is charged and discharged with large current, the temperature of the conductive handle part is easy to rise, which affects the performance of the battery consistency, and there is a risk of failure. The other is to weld and connect through the edge of the liquid injection hole of the pole and the protruding part of the busbar. Since the diameter of the pole itself is small, the diameter of the liquid injection hole is smaller, and the circumference of the liquid injection hole is smaller, which determines that the welding area between the pole and the busbar is also smaller, which will also increase the internal resistance of the battery, which will easily lead to temperature rise at the welding position, and there is a risk of failure. Therefore, the inventor considers designing the pole into a sheet shape, and the busbar is welded with the pole, therefore, how to design a busbar which is convenient to directly and closely welded with the pole becomes a problem to be solved. SUMMARY
[0004] In view of the above technical problems of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a busbar structure and a cylindrical battery with reasonable structure design, which is convenient to closely weld with the pole, is conducive to increasing the welding area and reducing the internal resistance of the battery.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:
[0006] A power type cylindrical battery busbar structure, comprising a busbar body in a whole circular shape, the middle part of the busbar body has a welding boss formed by whole drawing, the diameter of the welding boss matches the diameter of the pole to be matched, the side wall of the welding boss has a flow hole arranged through in the radial direction, and a plurality of flow holes are arranged along the circumference of the welding boss.
[0007] With the above structure, the welding boss is formed by whole drawing in the middle part of the busbar body, which is convenient for the pole to be closely welded with the welding boss. Since the diameter of the welding boss matches the diameter of the pole, the welding area can be increased, which is conducive to reducing the internal resistance and temperature rise speed, and reducing the risk of battery failure. In addition, the flow holes are arranged on the side wall of the welding boss, which can allow the electrolyte to pass through the flow holes, and the electrolyte can be conveniently filled.
[0008] Furthermore, the diameter of the welding boss is 1.5 to 2 times the diameter of the center hole of the battery core.
[0009] In this way, the welding area between the busbar and the core tab can be increased while ensuring the welding area between the busbar and the core tab.
[0010] Furthermore, the manifold body has a through-flow groove that extends radially along the manifold body.
[0011] Furthermore, one end of the flow channel extends to the welding boss and is connected to one of the flow holes.
[0012] Furthermore, the other end of the flow channel has a weakening groove extending circumferentially to both sides.
[0013] In this way, the manifold body is divided into multiple regions by the flow channels and the damping channels, allowing each region to have better deformation capacity so that it can better fit the core electrode tabs for welding, ensuring the reliability of the welding. At the same time, the flow channels and damping channels also facilitate the flow of electrolyte.
[0014] A cylindrical battery includes a casing with one end open, and a power-type cylindrical battery busbar structure as described above; the other end of the casing has an annular end plate extending radially inward, and the annular end plate has concentrically arranged electrode plates in the middle, the electrode plates being insulatedly and sealed to the annular end plate; a welding boss faces the electrode plate and is fitted and welded to the electrode plate.
[0015] Furthermore, an annular rivet is provided between the electrode plate and the annular end plate. The cross-section of the rivet is in the shape of an "I" and it is riveted to the electrode plate and the annular end plate respectively. An insulating pad is provided between the rivet and the annular end plate.
[0016] Furthermore, the first insulating element includes a first insulating pad disposed on the inner side of the annular end plate, and a first flange protruding from the middle of the first insulating pad and engaging with the inner hole of the annular end plate; the outer side of the annular end plate has a first insulating ring in the shape of an annulus, and the inner side of the first insulating ring is connected to the first flange.
[0017] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the first insulating pad matches the inner diameter of the housing.
[0018] In this way, the first insulating pad can form an insulation barrier between the busbar and the housing, preventing short circuits.
[0019] In summary, the power-type cylindrical battery busbar structure and cylindrical battery of this utility model have advantages such as reasonable structural design, convenient welding with the terminal post, which helps to increase the welding area and reduce the internal resistance of the battery.

One end of the flow groove 34 extends to the welding boss 32 and connects to one of the flow holes 33, while the other end has a circumferentially extending, two-sided weakening groove 35. In this way, the manifold body is divided into multiple regions by the flow groove and the weakening groove, allowing each region to have better deformation capacity, thus enabling better contact with the core electrode tabs for welding and ensuring welding reliability. At the same time, the flow groove and the weakening groove also facilitate the flow of electrolyte.

A first flange protruding from the middle of the first insulating pad 12 is provided to mate with the inner hole of the annular end plate 11. The outer diameter of the first insulating pad 12 matches the inner diameter of the housing 1. The first insulating pad can form an insulating barrier between the busbar and the housing to avoid short circuits.
