The positive tab and the negative tab are generally composed of a metal strip and a tab adhesive symmetrically attached to the two surfaces of the metal strip, and the tab adhesive mainly plays an insulating role to prevent the metal strip from directly contacting the aluminum plastic film to form a short circuit.
[0003] In the prior art, the Chinese utility model with the application number CN202020922278.5 discloses a tab adhesive, which includes a first adhesive part including an anti-overmelt layer and adhesive layers arranged on the two surfaces of the anti-overmelt layer, and a second adhesive part connected to the periphery of the first adhesive part and including a skeleton layer and a protective layer formed by co-extrusion, with the protective layer arranged on the surface of the skeleton layer. This utility model can not only avoid abnormal phenomena such as tab rebounding and tab breaking during PACK assembly, but also improve phenomena such as conduction between the tab and the aluminum plastic film, tab adhesive delamination, battery core water absorption, and liquid leakage.
[0004] The tab in the prior art is generally a rectangular metal strip with a rectangular tab adhesive, but the rectangular tab adhesive occupies a certain space inside the battery, which hinders the diaphragm and the tab insulating adhesive tape, and when the tab insulating adhesive tape is excessively attached with the tab adhesive, the top seal head is sealed to the adhesive tape, which is prone to liquid leakage. In addition, the tab inside the battery is not easy to bend, so a novel tab structure needs to be proposed. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
[0005] The utility model aims to provide a novel tab structure, which changes the inner side of the tab adhesive to an arc shape, increases the space inside the battery, and increases the length of the tab adhesive on the tab insulating adhesive tape, so that the top seal head is not sealed to the adhesive tape, which is not prone to liquid leakage, and the tab inside the battery is better bent, thereby solving the problems in the above background technology.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical scheme: a novel tab structure, which includes:
[0007] a tab body and a tab adhesive installed on the tab body;
[0008] The tab body is provided with a protruding end metal strip and a welding end metal strip which are integrally formed, and the length of the welding end metal strip is greater than that of the protruding end metal strip.
[0009] Preferably, the tab body is provided with a protruding end metal strip and a welding end metal strip which are integrally formed, and the length of the welding end metal strip is greater than that of the protruding end metal strip.
[0010] Preferably, the protruding end rubber and the welding end rubber are provided with metal strip through holes on opposite sides for the protruding end metal strip to pass through, and the cross section of the protruding end rubber is rectangular.
[0011] Preferably, the tab body is a rectangular metal strip, and the cross section of the welding end rubber is trumpet-shaped.
[0012] Preferably, the length of the protruding end metal strip extending out of the battery cell is 7.8±1mm, and the length of the protruding end rubber extending out of the battery cell is 0.8±0.5mm.
[0013] Preferably, the cross section length of the protruding end metal strip is 1.5±0.1mm, and the distance between the two groups of tab bodies is 5.5±0.5mm.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the beneficial effects that:
[0015] 1. The utility model mainly through the cooperation between the tab body and the tab rubber, through the inside of tab rubber changes to the shape of the inner arc, this design increases the space inside the battery, makes the tab insulating tape of welding end has more folding space, thereby reduces the risk of tab insulating tape to tab rubber seal, because of the change of tab rubber shape, tab insulating tape when pasting will not cover tab rubber too much, so the top seal head when sealing will not seal on the tape, thereby reduce the risk of leakage.
[0016] 2. The utility model discloses a welding end rubber and an inner arc groove, and the inside of the tab rubber is changed to an arc, which not only increases the space inside the aluminum plastic film, but also improves the utilization rate of the battery. This design avoids the tab rubber occupying too much space in the battery, reduces the hindering effect on the diaphragm and the tab insulating tape, and makes the tab body in the battery easier to bend, thereby improving the connection effect of the welding end metal strip in the battery and the protruding end metal strip of the tab rubber outside the battery.
