[0037] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0038] This embodiment provides a lithium battery cap assembly, which improves the corrosion resistance of the lithium battery cap assembly, enhances the safety of the lithium battery, and extends its service life.
[0039] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the lithium battery cap assembly mainly includes a top cover 100, an explosion-proof sheet 200, a conductive adhesive layer 300, and a separator 400. The conductive adhesive layer 300 is disposed on the top cover 100 and / or the explosion-proof sheet 200, and the top cover 100 is connected to the explosion-proof sheet 200 through the conductive adhesive layer 300. The separator 400 is disposed between the top cover 100 and the explosion-proof sheet 200, and is located above the explosion-proof sheet 200, configured to isolate the explosion-proof sheet 200 from the external environment.
[0040] Based on the above design, in this embodiment, the conductive adhesive layer 300 is disposed on the top cover 100 and / or the explosion-proof sheet 200, thereby enabling the top cover 100 and the explosion-proof sheet 200 to be connected through the conductive adhesive layer 300 to ensure current conduction. That is, in this embodiment, the conductive adhesive layer 300 is disposed at the connection between the top cover 100 and the explosion-proof sheet 200. Simultaneously, since there is a pressure relief space between the top cover 100 and the explosion-proof sheet 200, and the top cover 100 has a pressure relief hole that communicates with the pressure relief space, in the prior art, the explosion-proof sheet directly contacts the external high-temperature and high-humidity environment through the pressure relief hole. In this embodiment, the isolation plate 400 is located above the explosion-proof plate 200, and the isolation plate 400 completely covers the explosion-proof plate 200 in the pressure relief space. This achieves the purpose of isolating the explosion-proof plate 200 from the pressure relief hole on the top cover 100. The isolation plate 400 protects the explosion-proof plate 200, preventing it from directly contacting the external high-temperature and high-humidity environment. This reduces or avoids the corrosion of the explosion-proof plate 200 by the external high-temperature and high-humidity environment, improves the corrosion resistance of the lithium battery cap assembly, enhances the safety of the lithium battery, and extends its service life.
[0041] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the edge of the insulating sheet 400 is connected to the conductive adhesive layer 300, which can improve the stability and reliability of the insulating sheet 400 and prevent misalignment and other defects in the insulating sheet 400.
[0042] Optionally, the conductive adhesive layer 300 in the embodiment overlaps the isolation sheet 400 by 1 / 10 to 1 / 5 of the total area of the isolation sheet 400. This not only ensures the stability and reliability of the adhesive connection between the conductive adhesive layer 300 and the isolation sheet 400, but also reduces the area of the isolation sheet 400 and saves costs. When the ratio is less than 1 / 10, the connection area between the edge of the isolation sheet 400 and the conductive adhesive layer 300 is too small, which reduces the stability of the fixed isolation sheet 400 and causes displacement of the isolation sheet 400 during later use, thereby reducing the corrosion resistance of the lithium battery cover assembly. When the ratio is greater than 1 / 5, the overlap area between the isolation sheet 400 and the conductive adhesive layer 300 is too large, thereby increasing the consumption of the isolation sheet 400 and increasing the cost.
[0043] Optionally, the radial length of the isolation sheet 400 in contact with the conductive adhesive layer 300 in the embodiment is 1 / 4 to 1 / 2 of the length of the top cover 100 connected to the conductive adhesive layer 300. The ratio can be set to 1 / 4, 1 / 3, 1 / 2, etc. to further improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the isolation sheet 400 and the conductive adhesive layer 300 and reduce or avoid the phenomenon that the isolation sheet 400 is misaligned and cannot completely cover the explosion-proof sheet 200 in the pressure relief space.
[0044] Optionally, the conductive adhesive layer 300 in the embodiment can be epoxy resin. The epoxy resin is applied in the form of glue on the top cover 100 and / or the explosion-proof sheet 200 by brushing, which is simple and efficient.
[0045] Epoxy resin includes various curing agents and modifiers. The prepared conductive adhesive layer 300 can be cured at a relatively low temperature, but its melting temperature is much higher than the curing temperature. The curing agent and modifier formula can be designed to meet the temperature requirements of the battery cell.
[0046] Optionally, the volume resistivity of the conductive adhesive layer 300 in the embodiment is 10 -3 Ω·cm to 10 -4 Ω·cm.
[0047] Optionally, the isolation sheet 400 in the embodiment is a plastic part, which is low in cost and easy to obtain.
[0048] Optionally, as shown in Figures 1-2 The isolation sheet 400 in the embodiment is provided with a plurality of notches 410 or a circle of notches 410. When the lithium battery is in thermal runaway, the notches 410 on the isolation sheet 400 can be broken by high-pressure gas after the explosion-proof sheet 200 is opened, or directly broken by the pressure inside the lithium battery, thereby improving safety and reducing the risk of thermal runaway.
[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the notch 410 is annular, and multiple notches 410 are concentrically arranged. This ensures that the separator 400 can be opened in time when thermal runaway occurs in the lithium battery, facilitating pressure relief and improving the safety of the lithium battery.
[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the lithium battery cap assembly further includes a perforated plate 500, an insulating gasket 510, and a sealing ring 600. The perforated plate 500 is located below the explosion-proof sheet 200 and is welded to the explosion-proof sheet 200. Specifically, the connection can be made by ultrasonic welding. The perforated plate 500 is then laser-welded to the electrode tab of the battery cell to achieve the positive electrode lead-out of the lithium battery.
[0051] An insulating gasket 510 is disposed between the orifice plate 500 and the explosion-proof sheet 200. One side of the insulating gasket 510 abuts against the orifice plate 500, and the other side abuts against the explosion-proof sheet 200. The insulating gasket 510 prevents the orifice plate 500 and the explosion-proof sheet 200 from reconnecting after the cell CID is disconnected, which could lead to continued chemical reactions in the cell and cause a short circuit.
[0052] Alternatively, the insulating gasket 510 may be made of insulating materials such as plastic.
[0053] The sealing ring 600 covers part of the explosion-proof sheet 200, part of the top cover 100, and part of the perforated plate 500 to ensure the sealing performance of the lithium battery and extend its service life.
[0054] Optionally, the sealing ring 600 can be made of silicone.
[0055] This embodiment also provides a lithium battery, which includes a casing, a cell housed in the casing, and the aforementioned lithium battery cap assembly. One end of the casing has an opening, and the lithium battery cap assembly seals the opening.
[0056] Because this lithium battery has the aforementioned lithium battery cap assembly, it has high corrosion resistance, which improves the safety of the lithium battery and extends its service life.
[0057] Alternatively, the housing in this embodiment may be made of stainless steel.
[0058] Obviously, the above only preferred embodiments of the present application and the use of technical principles. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments here, those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, re-adjustment and replacement without departing from the scope of the present application. Therefore, although the above embodiments of the present application has been described in more detail, but the present application is not limited to the above examples, without departing from the present application, the idea can also include more other equivalent embodiments, and the scope of the present application is determined by the appended claims.
[0059] Note that in the description of the present specification, the description referring to the terms "some embodiments", "other embodiments", and the like means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in connection with the embodiments or examples are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present application. In the present specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiments or examples. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.
