In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the components and arrangements of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present application.

[0037] The pole 200 of the secondary battery is connected with the welding block to clamp the plate body 100 between the part of the pole 200 and the welding block, so as to realize the limiting of the plate body 100 to the pole 200 in the extending direction of the pole 200 hole, and avoid the displacement of the pole 200.

[0038] In the assembly process of the secondary battery, the part of the pole 200 needs to pass through the pole 200 hole first, and then the welding block is welded on the pole 200, and then the connecting piece 300 is welded on the welding block to complete the assembly of the part of the pole 200. The assembly process has multiple welding steps, and the assembly of the pole 200 is more complex.

[0039] In order to solve the technical problem that the assembly of the pole 200 is more complex, the first embodiment of the present application provides a cover plate assembly, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The cover plate assembly comprises a plate body 100, a pole column 200 and a connecting piece 300. The plate body 100 has a first through hole 110 penetrating the plate body 100, and the first through hole 110 has a first hole wall 120. The pole column 200 comprises a main body part 210, a first limiting part 220 and a second limiting part 240. The main body part 210 is arranged in the first through hole 110, and the main body part 210 has a first surface 211 facing the first hole wall 120. The first limiting part 220 is connected to the first surface 211. The second limiting part 240 is connected to the first surface 211, and the first limiting part 220 and the second limiting part 240 are arranged at intervals. The connecting piece 300 has a second through hole 310, and the first limiting part 220 is arranged in the second through hole 310. At least part of the connecting piece 300 is connected to one side of the first limiting part 220 close to the second limiting part 240. Part of the plate body 100 is clamped between the second limiting part 240 and the connecting piece 300.

[0040] In some embodiments, the second limiting part 240 is arranged in the second through hole 310. In other embodiments, at least part of the second limiting part 240 is exposed to the second through hole 310.

[0041] In some embodiments, the connecting piece 300 is entirely connected to one side of the first limiting part 220 close to the second limiting part 240. In other embodiments, part of the connecting piece 300 is connected to one side of the first limiting part 220 close to the second limiting part 240, and another part of the connecting piece 300 is connected to the first limiting part 220 in the direction from the pole column 200 to the tab.

[0042] In some embodiments, the connecting piece 300 and the first limiting part 220 are welded. It can be understood that when the connecting piece 300 is arranged on the pole column 200, since the first limiting part 220 is connected to the first surface 211 of the main body part 210, and at least part of the connecting piece 300 is connected to one side of the first limiting part 220 close to the second limiting part 240, the first limiting part 220 can avoid the connecting piece 300 moving in the extending direction of the pole column 200 away from the plate body 100, so as to realize positioning of the connecting piece 300, and facilitate welding of the connecting piece 300 and the first limiting part 220.

[0043] In the above embodiments, part of the plate body 100 is located between the second limiting part 240 and the connecting piece 300, and part of the plate body 100 is clamped between the second limiting part 240 and the connecting piece 300, i.e. the plate body 100 is positioned relative to the pole column 200 in the extending direction of the pole column 200, i.e. the connecting piece 300 for electrically connecting the tab of the electrode assembly also realizes the function of positioning the pole column 200, and the cover plate assembly does not need to additionally arrange a welding block to position the pole column 200, thereby reducing the types of parts and simplifying the assembly difficulty of the cover plate assembly.

[0044] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10 The first limiting part 220 has a first connecting surface 221, the first connecting surface 221 is connected with the first surface 211, the first connecting surface 221 faces the plate body 100, and the first connecting surface 221 is inclined to the first surface 211.

[0045] The connecting sheet 300 has a third surface 330 and a fourth surface 340 facing away from each other, the third surface 330 faces the plate body 100, the second through hole 310 has a second hole wall 320, the second hole wall 320 has a second connecting surface 321, the second connecting surface 321 is located between the third surface 330 and the fourth surface 340 and is connected with the third surface 330 and the fourth surface 340 respectively, and the second connecting surface 321 is attached to and connected with the first connecting surface 221.

[0046] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 The first connecting surface 221 is a conical surface; that is, the first connecting surface 221 is neither perpendicular to the first surface 211 nor parallel to the first surface 211.

[0047] In the above embodiments, by setting the first connecting surface 221 and the second connecting surface 321 that can be attached to and connected with each other, the connecting area of the connecting sheet 300 and the first limiting part 220 can be increased, so that the connection of the connecting sheet 300 and the first limiting part 220 is more stable. At the same time, since the first connecting surface 221 is inclined to the first surface 211 and the second connecting surface 321 can be attached to the first connecting surface 221, it means that the second connecting surface 321 is also inclined to the first surface 211. When the connecting sheet 300 is sleeved on the pole 200, when the connecting sheet 300 moves in the direction away from the plate body 100 along the extension direction of the pole 200, the inclined first connecting surface 221 and the second connecting surface 321 can automatically center the connecting sheet 300 after contacting, so that the first limiting part 220 can position the connecting sheet 300, and the connection difficulty of the connecting sheet 300 and the pole 200 is reduced, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty of the cover plate assembly.

[0048] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 6 The angle α between the first connecting surface 221 and the plane where the third surface 330 is located satisfies: 5°≤α≤75°.

[0049] In the above embodiments, the value of a can be 5°, 6°, 7°, 8°, 9°, 10°, 11°, 12°, 13°, 14°, 15°, 16°, 17°, 18°, 19°, 20°, 21°, 22°, 23°, 24°, 25°, 26°, 27°, 28°, 29°, 30°, 31°, 32°, 33°, 34°, 35°, 36°, 37°, 38°, 39°, 40°, 41°, 42°, 43°, 44°, 45°, 46°, 47°, 48°, 49°, 50°, 51°, 52°, 53°, 54°, 55°, 56°, 57°, 58°, 59°, 60°, 61°, 62°, 63°, 64°, 65°, 66°, 67°, 68°, 69°, 70°, 71°, 72°, 73°, 74°, 75°. The smaller the value of a, the better the limiting effect of the first limiting portion 220 on the connecting sheet 300 along the extension direction of the pole 200, which can prevent the connecting sheet 300 from being separated from the pole 200 before being welded with the first limiting portion 220. The larger the value of a, the better the positioning effect of the first limiting portion 220 on the connecting sheet 300, which can better center the connecting sheet 300 with the pole 200. When the value of a is within the range defined in the present application, the first limiting portion 220 can better limit and position the connecting sheet 300.

[0050] In some embodiments, referring again to Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the first limiting portion 220 and the main body portion 210 are an integral structure.

[0051] In some embodiments, the pole 200 has a blind hole, part of the main body portion 210 surrounds the blind hole, and the first limiting portion 220 is obtained by turning the main body portion 210 outward away from the blind hole.

[0052] During the assembly of the cover plate, the pole 200 passes through the cover plate, the connecting sheet 300 is sleeved on the pole 200, and then the end of the main body portion 210 is turned outward to form the first limiting portion 220 to limit the connecting sheet 300, preventing the connecting sheet 300 from moving away from the plate body 100 to be separated from the pole 200.

[0053] Specifically, the first limiting portion 220 and the main body portion 210 are both annular, the maximum size of the first limiting portion 220 is greater than the maximum size of the main body portion 210 in the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the pole 200, and the maximum size of the first limiting portion 220 is greater than the maximum size of the second through hole 310 to limit the connecting sheet 300.

[0054] In the above embodiment, since the first limiting portion 220 is in an integral structure with the main body portion 210, and the first limiting portion 220 is obtained by turning the main body portion 210 outward, the limiting of the connecting sheet 300 by the pole post 200 is realized, and the number of parts of the pole post 200 is reduced, and the assembly difficulty of the cover plate assembly is further reduced.

[0055] In some embodiments, referring again to Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the pole post 200 further comprises a protruding portion 230, the protruding portion 230 is arranged around the main body portion 210 and connected with the first surface 211, the protruding portion 230 is connected to the side of the second limiting portion 240 facing the first limiting portion 220 and is arranged in a spaced manner with the first limiting portion 220, the protruding portion 230 is provided through the first through hole 110, the protruding portion 230 has a first sealing surface 231 and a second sealing surface 232, the first sealing surface 231 is located between the first surface 211 and the second sealing surface 232 and is connected with the first surface 211 and the second sealing surface 232 respectively, and the first sealing surface 231 faces the first limiting portion 220.

[0056] The cover plate assembly further comprises a sealing member 400, the sealing member 400 comprises a first portion 410 and a second portion 420, the first portion 410 is connected to the side of the second portion 420 away from the connecting sheet 300, the first portion 410 is arranged between the second sealing surface 232 and the first hole wall 120 and is connected with the second sealing surface 232 and the first hole wall 120 respectively; part of the second portion 420 is arranged between the first sealing surface 231 and the connecting sheet 300 and is connected with the first sealing surface 231 and the connecting sheet 300 respectively.

[0057] In some embodiments, the sealing member 400 is a sealing ring sleeved on the pole post 200.

[0058] In the above embodiment, the first portion 410 is used to fill the gap between the pole post 200 and the cover plate, seal the connection between the pole post 200 and the cover plate, and isolate the two sides of the cover plate; the second portion 420 is used to extend the sealing path of the first portion 410 and improve the sealing effect of the sealing member 400. At the same time, the protruding portion 230 is arranged around the main body portion 210 to increase the maximum dimension of the pole post 200 along the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the pole post 200, increase the degree of elastic deformation of the sealing member 400, and improve the sealing effect of the sealing member 400.

[0059] In some embodiments, part of the second portion 420 is arranged between the plate body 100 and the connecting sheet 300 and is connected with the plate body 100 and the connecting sheet 300 respectively.

[0060] In the above embodiment, the part of the second portion 420 is clamped between the plate body 100 and the connecting piece 300, further increasing the sealing path of the sealing member 400, and further improving the sealing effect of the sealing member 400. At the same time, the first portion 410 insulates the pole post 200 from the plate body 100, avoiding short circuit between the pole post 200 and the plate body 100, and the part of the second portion 420 insulates the connecting piece 300 from the plate body 100, avoiding short circuit between the connecting piece 300 and the plate body 100, improving the reliability of the cover plate assembly.

[0061] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the plate body 100 further has a first accommodating groove 130, the first accommodating groove 130 surrounds the first through hole 110, the first accommodating groove 130 is in communication with the first through hole 110, the first accommodating groove 130 forms an opening 131 on the plate body 100, and the opening 131 faces the connecting piece 300; the first accommodating groove 130 has a groove wall 140 facing the connecting piece 300, the groove wall 140 is connected with the first hole wall 120, and the part of the second portion 420 is arranged between the groove wall 140 and the connecting piece 300 and connected with the groove wall 140 and the connecting piece 300, respectively.

[0062] In the above embodiment, the part of the second portion 420 is clamped between the plate body 100 and the connecting piece 300, further increasing the sealing path of the sealing member 400, and further improving the sealing effect of the sealing member 400. At the same time, the first portion 410 insulates the pole post 200 from the plate body 100, avoiding short circuit between the pole post 200 and the plate body 100, and the part of the second portion 420 insulates the connecting piece 300 from the plate body 100, avoiding short circuit between the connecting piece 300 and the plate body 100, improving the reliability of the cover plate assembly. In addition, the first accommodating groove 130 is used to accommodate the second portion 420, so that the second portion 420 has sufficient size in the extension direction of the pole post 200, thereby having good elastic deformation capacity, and further making the sealing performance of the sealing member 400 better, but without making the second portion 420 occupy too much size in the extension direction of the pole post 200, so that the structure of the cover plate assembly is more compact.

[0063] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 , the connecting piece 300 comprises a connecting portion 350 and a pressing portion 360, the pressing portion 360 is connected to one side of the connecting portion 350 facing the plate body 100, the pressing portion 360 is arranged around the main body portion 210, and the part of the second portion 420 is located between the pressing portion 360 and the first sealing surface 231 and connected with the pressing portion 360 and the first sealing surface 231, respectively; the part of the second portion 420 is located between the pressing portion 360 and the groove wall 140 and connected with the pressing portion 360 and the groove wall 140, respectively.

[0064] In the above embodiments, the extrusion part 360 can further compress the second part 420 in the dimension along the extension direction of the pole column 200, so that the second part 420 has a larger elastic deformation range, thereby having a better sealing effect. In some embodiments, the minimum dimension of the extrusion part 360 along the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the pole column 200 is greater than the minimum dimension of the second part 420 along the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the pole column 200, so that the extrusion part 360 can completely cover the second part 420, and the extrusion effect of the second part 420 is better.

[0065] In some embodiments, the connecting sheet 300 has a third surface 330 and a fourth surface 340 facing away from each other, the third surface 330 faces the plate body 100, and the connecting sheet 300 further has a second accommodating groove 370 surrounding the second through hole 310, the second accommodating groove 370 communicates with the second through hole 310, and the second accommodating groove 370 penetrates the fourth surface 340.

[0066] In some embodiments, the connecting sheet 300 is welded to the first limiting part 220.

[0067] It can be understood that after the connecting sheet 300 and the first limiting part 220 are welded, a welding flash will be generated between the first limiting part 220 and the connecting sheet 300. Specifically, a welding flash can be generated at the connection between the first connecting surface 221 and the second connecting surface 321 away from the third surface 330.

[0068] In the above embodiments, the second accommodating groove 370 can accommodate the welding flash generated by welding, so as to avoid the welding flash protruding from the fourth surface 340, thereby avoiding the increase of the dimension of the cover plate assembly along the extension direction of the pole column 200, and avoiding the welding flash contacting other components after the cover plate assembly is assembled to the secondary battery, thereby avoiding short circuit and improving the use reliability of the cover plate assembly.

[0069] In some embodiments, the first through hole 110 extends along the first direction X; along the first direction X, the pole column 200 has a maximum dimension H, and the cover plate assembly has a maximum dimension L, and the following condition is satisfied: H < L.
