[0027] A negative busbar and a battery system are provided to solve the problem of poor welding effect between the negative busbar and the steel shell in the related art.

[0028] As Figures 1 to 4As shown, the negative busbar in the present application comprises a busbar body 10, one side of the busbar body 10 is provided with a tab welding area, the other side of the busbar body 10 is provided with a welding boss 20, the end face of the welding boss 20 is provided with a shell welding area, and the area of the tab welding area is greater than the area of the shell welding area.

[0029] When the negative busbar in the present application is used, by setting the tab welding area on one side of the busbar body 10 and the welding boss 20 on the other side, the stable welding of the cell tab and the busbar is effectively realized, and at the same time, the welding of the shell and the shell welding area of the welding boss 20 enhances the overall structural strength and the reliability of the electrical connection of the battery system. Moreover, since the welding boss 20 is arranged on the other side of the busbar body 10 and the tab welding of the cell, the problem of gap between the busbar and the shell due to the difference in flatness of the busbar and the cell of the battery system can be solved by welding the shell welding area on the welding boss 20 and the shell of the battery system. On the other hand, the side of the busbar with the welding boss 20 can be in contact with the shell under the force of the cell of the battery system except the welding boss 20. Therefore, the negative busbar in the present application effectively solves the problem of poor welding effect between the negative busbar and the steel shell in the prior art.

[0030] Moreover, a battery system is also provided in the present application, and the battery system in the present application has the negative busbar in the present application. At the same time, the battery system further comprises a cell and a shell, at least a part of the cell and the negative busbar are arranged in the interior of the shell respectively, and the tab of the cell is welded with the tab welding area of the negative busbar, and the shell is welded with the shell welding area of the negative busbar.

[0031] Optionally, the side of the busbar body 10 with the tab welding area is provided with a sink groove to form the welding boss 20. Or in other words, the interior of the welding boss 20 in the present application can be hollow. Of course, the specific structure and shape of the welding boss 20 can be adaptively adjusted according to the actual use in the present application.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the welding boss 20 is cylindrical, and the welding boss 20 is coaxial with the busbar body 10. Moreover, in the present embodiment, the welding boss 20 of the negative busbar is arranged corresponding to the center hole of the cell of the battery system. By such arrangement, the welding boss 20 can be effectively prevented from being subjected to the force of the cell.

[0033] Optionally, the ratio of the radius R2 of the welding boss 20 to the radius R1 of the busbar body 10 is greater than or equal to 0.2 and less than or equal to 0.3. Of course, the relationship between R1 and R2 can be adaptively adjusted according to the actual use and design requirements in the present application.

[0034] Specifically, the area of the shell welding area is less than or equal to the area of the end surface of the welding boss 20. In one embodiment of the present application, the end surface of the welding boss 20 is the shell welding area, and the welding line between the shell and the shell welding area is a curved welding line, and the curved welding line is a sinusoidal spiral line 30. At this time, the center of the sinusoidal spiral line 30 coincides with the axis of the welding boss 20, and the radius R3 of the sinusoidal spiral line 30 is less than the radius R2 of the welding boss 20, so as to ensure that the welding of the shell and the negative bus bar does not interfere with the welding of the cell tab and the negative bus bar. In the present application, laser welding can be used to weld the shell welding area of the shell and the negative bus bar. The welding line trajectory of the sinusoidal spiral line 30 is longer than that of a straight line, and the area is larger, thereby ensuring that the welding area is increased, the overcurrent capacity of the negative bus bar and the shell is better, and the cell is more suitable for high-rate discharge.

[0035] Optionally, the distance between the two sides of the bus bar body 10 is H1, the distance between the surface of the bus bar body 10 where the tab welding area is located and the end surface of the welding boss 20 is H2, and the ratio between H1 and H2 is greater than or equal to 0.55 and less than or equal to 0.65. In the present application, such setting can ensure that the side of the bus bar body 10 away from the cell can be in contact with the shell under the action of the cell force, thereby ensuring the use performance of the battery system. Of course, in the present application, the relationship between H1 and H2 can be adaptively adjusted according to actual use and design requirements.

[0036] In one embodiment of the present application, H1 is 0.15mm, H2 is 0.25mm, and the height of the welding boss 20 is 0.1mm.

[0038] 1. Effectively solve the problem of poor welding effect between the negative bus bar and the steel shell in the prior art;

[0039] 2. Simple structure and stable performance.
