[0028] The liquid injection auxiliary tool 100 of the battery 40 according to embodiments of the present application is described below with reference to Figures 1-4

[0029] The liquid injection auxiliary tool 100 of the battery 40 according to embodiments of the present application, with reference to Figures 1-4 , comprises a gas bag 10 and an electrolyte bag 20.

[0030] The gas bag 10 is adapted to be connected to one side of the battery 40 and used to buffer the gas generated in the formation process of the battery 40.

[0031] ​For example, the battery 40 can include a shell 41, which can be an aluminum plastic film, an electrode assembly 42 disposed in the shell 41, and a tab 43 connected to the electrode assembly 42 and partially located outside the shell 41. The tab 43 of the battery 40 can be disposed on the same side of the battery 40 or on the opposite side of the battery 40.

[0032] For example, the battery 40 can be a soft-pack battery 40, and the shell 41 of the battery 40 and the shell 41 of the air bag 10 are both aluminum plastic films and are integrally formed. Before the battery 40 is formed, the periphery of the aluminum plastic film is sealed to ensure the sealing of the battery 40.

[0033] The electrolyte bag 20 stores electrolyte and is placed in the air bag 10. The electrolyte bag 20 can release electrolyte to supplement the electrolyte in the battery 40. By allowing the electrolyte bag 20 to release electrolyte to supplement the electrolyte in the battery 40, the amount of electrolyte in the battery 40 can be increased, and the performance of the battery 40 can be improved. By placing the electrolyte in the air bag 10, the process of supplementing the electrolyte in the battery 40 can be simple and convenient without breaking the seal of the battery 40, and the battery 40 can always be in a sealed state to avoid contact between the electrolyte and water vapor in the air when the electrolyte is injected.

After the battery 40 is formed, the electrolyte bag 20 releases electrolyte to supplement the electrolyte in the battery 40 without breaking the seal of the battery 40. The electrolyte consumed during the formation of the battery 40 is supplemented while ensuring the sealing of the battery 40 after the formation, so that the content of electrolyte in the battery 40 is sufficient, and the performance of the battery 40 is improved. At the same time, the supplemented electrolyte formula can be different from the electrolyte before the formation to adjust the electrolyte formula in the battery to improve the performance of the battery.

[0035] According to some embodiments of the utility model, referring to Figures 1-4 The electrolyte bag 20 is fixedly connected to the air bag 10. By fixedly connecting the electrolyte bag 20 to the air bag 10, the electrolyte bag 20 can be prevented from moving in the air bag 10.

[0036] According to some embodiments of the utility model, referring to Figures 1-4The electrolyte bag 20 comprises a containing part 21 and a fixing part 22, the containing part 21 is internally provided with a containing cavity 23 for storing electrolyte, and the fixing part 22 is connected to one side of the containing part 21 and is fixed to the air bag 10 by means of hot melting.

[0037] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the air bag 10 is adapted to be connected to one side of the battery 40 along a first direction (for example, the e1 direction in the drawings), the distance between the electrolyte bag 20 and the battery 40 in the first direction is d, the width of the air bag 10 in the first direction is W1, and the ratio of d to W1 is greater than 1 / 5. For example, the ratio of d to W1 can be 1 / 4, 1 / 3, 1 / 2, etc. By making the ratio of d to W1 greater than 1 / 5, the air exchange between the battery 40 and the air bag 10 can be smooth enough, and the risk of the battery 40 being overcharged can be more fully avoided.

[0038] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the air bag 10 is adapted to be connected to one side of the battery 40 along a first direction, the width of the air bag 10 in the first direction is W1, the length of the air bag 10 in a second direction (for example, the e2 direction in the drawings) is L1, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, the width of the electrolyte bag 20 in the first direction is W2, the length of the electrolyte bag 20 in the second direction is L2, the ratio of W2 to W1 ranges from 0.2 to 0.7, and the ratio of L2 to L1 ranges from 0.2 to 0.7.

By making the ratio of L2 to L1 not less than 0.2, the length of the electrolyte bag 20 in the second direction can be long enough, and the electrolyte stored in the electrolyte bag 20 can be sufficient; by making the ratio of L2 to L1 not greater than 0.7, the space in the air bag 10 for containing gas can be sufficient, and the risk of the electrolyte bag 20 occupying too much space in the air bag 10 and reducing the amount of gas contained in the air bag 10 can be avoided.

[0039] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The electrolyte bag 20 has a weak portion 24, and the electrolyte bag 20 is adapted to release electrolyte at the weak portion 24. By making the electrolyte bag 20 have the weak portion 24, the electrolyte bag 20 is adapted to release electrolyte at the weak portion 24, so that the electrolyte bag 20 can be easily broken at the weak portion 24 to release the electrolyte contained in the electrolyte bag 20.

[0040] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The weak portion 24 is formed with a notch 25. By making the weak portion 24 formed with the notch 25, the weak portion 24 can be easily broken.

[0041] For example, the electrolyte bag 20 has a weak portion 24, and the weak portion 24 is formed with a notch 25. During the formation of the battery 40, the electrolyte bag 20 is sealed; when the formation of the battery 40 is completed and electrolyte needs to be supplemented, the notch 25 of the electrolyte bag 20 is broken by external pressure, and the electrolyte in the electrolyte bag 20 is released and flows into the battery 40.

[0042] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1-4 The liquid injection auxiliary tool 100 includes a flow guide pipe 30, one end of the flow guide pipe 30 is connected with the electrolyte bag 20, and the other end of the flow guide pipe 30 is connected with the battery 40. The flow guide pipe 30 is used to guide the electrolyte in the electrolyte bag 20 to flow into the battery 40. After the electrolyte bag 20 finishes supplementing the electrolyte to the battery 40, the battery 40 usually needs to be cut and separated from the gas bag 10, and then the cutting part needs to be sealed. If there is a lot of electrolyte at the connection between the gas bag 10 and the battery 40, it may cause the electrolyte in the battery 40 to leak due to poor sealing. By making one end of the flow guide pipe 30 connected with the electrolyte bag 20 and the other end connected with the battery 40, the content of the electrolyte remaining at the connection between the gas bag 10 and the battery 40 can be reduced, and the problem of poor sealing after cutting the battery 40 from the gas bag 10 can be avoided. In addition, the electrolyte released from the electrolyte bag 20 can flow into the battery 40 through the flow guide pipe 30, and the flow guide pipe 30 can guide the electrolyte and reduce the waste caused by the electrolyte remaining in the gas bag 10.

[0043] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3The electrolyte bag 20 has a weak portion 24, the electrolyte bag 20 is adapted to release electrolyte at the position of the weak portion 24, and the weak portion 24 is opposite to the pipe orifice of the flow guide pipe 30. By making the electrolyte bag 20 have the weak portion 24, the electrolyte bag 20 is adapted to release electrolyte at the position of the weak portion 24, the electrolyte bag 20 can be broken more easily at the weak portion 24 to release the electrolyte contained in the electrolyte bag 20; by making the weak portion 24 opposite to the pipe orifice of the flow guide pipe 30, the electrolyte released by the electrolyte bag 20 can flow into the battery 40 through the flow guide pipe 30, and the flow guide pipe 30 plays a guiding role on the electrolyte and reduces the waste caused by the residual electrolyte in the air bag 10.

[0044] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 the other end of the flow guide pipe 30 is adapted to be connected with the upper part of the battery 40. By making the other end of the flow guide pipe 30 adapted to be connected with the upper part of the battery 40, the electrolyte flows downward to the lower part of the battery 40 under its own gravity, so that the electrolyte can be more evenly soaked into the pole group in the battery 40.
