Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithium battery core structure technology, specifically to a cylindrical lithium battery cell structure. Background Technology
[0002] Cylindrical lithium batteries (especially 18650 and 21700 models) are currently the mainstream battery type widely used in portable electronic devices, power tools, electric vehicles, energy storage systems, and other fields. The design and manufacturing technology of their cell structure has a significant impact on the safety, performance, lifespan, and cost of the battery. The optimization and development of cylindrical lithium battery cell structure involves technological advancements in multiple fields, including material innovation, improvements in battery processes, enhanced safety design, and intelligent battery management systems.
[0003] As disclosed in CN222052005U, this is a high-safety cylindrical lithium battery core and lithium battery. The core is made by winding a positive electrode sheet, a separator, and a negative electrode sheet onto a winding needle. A central hole is formed after the winding needle is pulled out from the center of the core. The outermost ring of the core is a copper foil sheet without negative electrode active material coated on either side. If the lithium battery experiences an internal short circuit due to harsh external environments such as high temperature, impact, or combustion, the battery can quickly expel the high-temperature gas carrying heat to the outside of the battery through the central hole, preventing the battery from exploding.
[0004] The aforementioned patent states that although a central hole is designed in the center of the battery to reduce internal pressure, the battery does not have a fireproof layer. The fireproof layer design can effectively isolate heat sources, slow down temperature rise, and prevent the spread of fire. During the use of the battery, a reasonable pressure-resistant buffer layer can effectively disperse external impacts or internal pressure, reduce structural damage caused by collisions or external forces, and avoid dangers such as battery short circuits, overheating, or electrolyte leakage.

[0010] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of this invention, the surface of the outer protective body of the battery cell is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0011] Beneficial effects: The technical solution of this application has the following technical effects: This utility model has the advantages of heat dissipation and fire prevention against harsh external environments. Through the setting of the central heat dissipation pipe, it can effectively promote the rapid conduction and dispersion of heat, reduce the heat accumulation of the battery during operation, reduce the risk of overheating, and thus improve the safety and stability of the battery. Through the setting of the anti-pressure and shock-absorbing sheet, it can effectively reduce the damage to the battery core caused by external impact and pressure, extend the battery life, and improve the safety and stability of the battery. Especially in the environment of high vibration and frequent impact, the anti-pressure and shock-absorbing sheet can ensure the normal operation of the battery, reduce the occurrence of damage and failure, and thus improve the reliability of the entire device. Through the setting of the fireproof sheet, it can play a physical isolation role, isolating the high-temperature part inside the battery from the external environment. When an abnormal reaction occurs inside the battery, the fireproof sheet can slow down the spread of heat and fire source, reducing the threat to the external components of the battery and the surrounding environment.

[0023] Specifically, the diaphragm 6 is made of PE / PP composite material, and the inner cavity of the diaphragm 6 has multiple micropores.
[0024] In this embodiment: the multiple micropores in the inner cavity of the diaphragm 6 facilitate electrolyte penetration, making ion transport inside the battery smoother, thereby improving the charging and discharging efficiency of the battery.
