In order to improve the safety of new energy vehicles, the current batteries usually adopt a thermal-electric separation scheme with the pole column facing upward and the explosion-proof valve facing downward.

[0003] Supporting members are often used in batteries to separate the bottom wall of the battery from the internal electrode assembly; when the battery adopts the thermal-electric separation scheme with the pole column facing upward and the explosion-proof valve facing downward, the electrode assembly presses the supporting member due to its own gravity, which causes the supporting member to press the bottom wall of the battery, which easily causes the explosion-proof valve to be blocked by the supporting member, thereby reducing the exhaust efficiency, causing the exhaust rate to be less than the gas production rate after the battery thermal runaway, causing the internal pressure of the battery to continuously rise, and ultimately causing the battery to explode, affecting the safety performance of the new energy vehicle.

[0043] As shown in Figure 1 Embodiments of the present application provide a single battery 100, mainly applied to a battery pack. The single battery 100 has a third direction Z, and the single battery 100 comprises a shell 110, a first end cover 121, a pole 1211, a second end cover 122, an electrode assembly 130 and an exhaust support 140.

[0044] The shell 110 has a containing cavity 111, the first end cover 121 is connected with the shell 110 along the third direction Z, so that the first end cover 121 is sealed in the containing cavity 111, and the pole 1211 is provided in the first end cover 121. The second end cover 122 is connected with the shell 110 along the third direction Z, so that the second end cover 122 is sealed in the containing cavity 111, the second end cover 122 is arranged opposite to the first end cover 121 along the third direction Z, the second end cover 122 is provided with an explosion-proof valve 1221, the electrode assembly 130 is arranged in the containing cavity and connected with the pole 1211.

[0045] The exhaust support 140 is arranged in the containing cavity 111, the exhaust support 140 is arranged between the electrode assembly 130 and the second end cover 122 along the third direction Z, and abuts with the electrode assembly 130 and the second end cover 122 respectively, the exhaust support 140 is provided with an exhaust hole 141 penetrating along the third direction Z, the exhaust hole 141 corresponds to the explosion-proof valve 1221, and the exhaust support 140 is provided with an exhaust groove 142 on the side close to the second end cover 122, and the exhaust groove 142 communicates with the exhaust hole 141.

[0046] The single battery 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application can effectively improve the exhaust efficiency and reduce the risk of explosion of the single battery 100 by arranging the exhaust support 140 between the electrode assembly 130 and the second end cover 122 along the third direction Z, abutting the electrode assembly 130 and the second end cover 122 respectively, and arranging the exhaust hole 141 penetrating along the third direction Z on the exhaust support 140, so that part of the high-temperature gas generated when the electrode assembly 130 is in thermal runaway can be quickly exhausted through the exhaust hole 141 and the explosion-proof valve 1221, and the exhaust hole 141 can also play a role in avoiding the explosion-proof valve 1221, avoiding the contact between the exhaust support 140 and the explosion-proof valve 1221 to block the explosion-proof valve 1221.

[0047] The exhaust groove 142 is located on the side of the exhaust support 140 close to the second end cover 122, which can prevent the insulating layer 150 outside the electrode assembly 130 from blocking the exhaust groove 142, and effectively improve the exhaust efficiency.

[0048] Specifically, the exhaust support 140 has a gap between the cavity wall of the accommodating cavity 111, and the exhaust groove 142 is arranged on the side of the exhaust support 140 close to the second end cover 122 and communicates with the exhaust hole 141, so that another part of the high-temperature gas generated when the electrode assembly 130 is in thermal runaway can be quickly exhausted to the exhaust hole 141 through the gap and the exhaust groove 142 in turn, and then exhausted through the exhaust hole 141 and the explosion-proof valve 1221. The exhaust groove 142 can play a shunt effect, further improve the exhaust efficiency, and further reduce the risk of explosion of the single battery 100.

[0049] As shown in the drawings, Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present application, the second end cover 122 is arranged in a protruding manner along the third direction Z away from the electrode assembly 130, so that a groove 1222 is formed on the side of the second end cover 122 facing the electrode assembly 130, and the groove 1222 communicates with the exhaust hole 141.

[0050] In the embodiment, the second end cover 122 is arranged in a protruding manner along the third direction Z away from the electrode assembly 130, so that a groove 1222 is formed on the side of the second end cover 122 facing the electrode assembly 130, and the groove 1222 communicates with the exhaust hole 141. In this way, when the electrode assembly 130 is in thermal runaway, the existence of the groove 1222 not only avoids the area of the exhaust support 140 blocking the explosion-proof valve 1221, but also increases the exhaust space, which is beneficial to the more rapid exhaust of the high-temperature gas and reduces the risk of explosion as much as possible.

[0051] As shown in the drawings, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the single cell 100 also has a first direction X intersecting with the third direction Z, and the exhaust groove 142 includes a first exhaust groove 1421, which extends from the edge of the exhaust support 140 along the first direction X and communicates with the exhaust hole 141.

[0052] In this embodiment, by extending the first exhaust groove 1421 from the edge of the exhaust support 140 along the first direction X and connecting it with the exhaust hole 141, the high-temperature gas on both sides of the electrode assembly 130 along the first direction X can be quickly discharged to the exhaust hole 141 through the gap and the first exhaust groove 1421 in sequence, and then quickly discharged through the explosion-proof valve 1221 via the exhaust hole 141, which effectively improves the exhaust efficiency and reduces the risk of explosion of the single cell battery 100.

[0053] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the above embodiments of this application, the single cell 100 also has a second direction Y intersecting with the third direction Z, and the exhaust groove 142 further includes a second exhaust groove 1422. The second exhaust groove 1422 extends from the edge of the exhaust support member 140 along the second direction Y and communicates with the exhaust hole 141.

[0054] In this embodiment, by extending the second exhaust groove 1422 from the edge of the exhaust support 140 along the second direction Y and connecting it with the exhaust hole 141, the high-temperature gas on both sides of the electrode assembly 130 along the second direction Y can be quickly discharged to the exhaust hole 141 through the gap and the second exhaust groove 1422 in sequence, and then quickly discharged through the explosion-proof valve 1221 via the exhaust hole 141, which effectively improves the exhaust efficiency and reduces the risk of explosion of the single cell battery 100.

[0055] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the above embodiments of this application, multiple sets of second exhaust grooves 1422 are provided. The multiple sets of second exhaust grooves 1422 are arranged opposite to each other along the second direction Y. Each set of second exhaust grooves 1422 includes multiple second exhaust grooves 142, and the multiple second exhaust grooves 142 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X.

[0056] In the embodiment, by setting the number of the second exhaust grooves 1422 as multiple groups, and oppositely arranging the multiple groups of the second exhaust grooves 1422 along the second direction Y, the high-temperature gas generated at one side of the electrode assembly 130 along the second direction Y can be quickly exhausted to the exhaust hole 141 through one group of the second exhaust grooves 1422, and then quickly exhausted to the outside through the explosion-proof valve 1221 via the exhaust hole 141; and the high-temperature gas generated at the other side of the electrode assembly 130 along the second direction Y can be quickly exhausted to the exhaust hole 141 through the other group of the second exhaust grooves 1422, and then quickly exhausted to the outside through the explosion-proof valve 1221 via the exhaust hole 141, which effectively improves the exhaust efficiency and reduces the risk of explosion of the single battery 100.

[0057] Meanwhile, by setting each group of the second exhaust grooves 1422 to include multiple second exhaust grooves 1422 arranged at intervals along the first direction X, the exhaust area of the second exhaust grooves 1422 is increased, thereby further improving the exhaust efficiency and further reducing the risk of explosion of the single battery 100.

[0058] For example, the first exhaust grooves 1421 and the second exhaust grooves 1422 can be arranged on the same side of the exhaust support 140 along the third direction Z. In other embodiments, the first exhaust grooves 1421 and the second exhaust grooves 1422 can be arranged on two opposite sides of the exhaust support 140 along the third direction Z, respectively.

[0059] In the above embodiments of the present application, the side of the exhaust support 140 away from the second end cover 122 is provided with the exhaust grooves 142; the first exhaust grooves 1421 and the second exhaust grooves 1422 are arranged on two opposite sides of the exhaust support 140 along the third direction Z, respectively.

[0060] In the embodiment, the side of the exhaust support 140 away from the second end cover 122 is also provided with the exhaust grooves 142, and the first exhaust grooves 1421 and the second exhaust grooves 1422 are arranged on two opposite sides of the exhaust support 140 along the third direction Z, respectively. In this way, the high-temperature gas generated at both sides of the electrode assembly 130 along the first direction X can be quickly exhausted to the exhaust hole 141 along the first exhaust grooves 1421 arranged on one side of the exhaust support 140 along the third direction Z, and then quickly exhausted to the outside through the explosion-proof valve 1221 via the exhaust hole 141. And the high-temperature gas generated at both sides of the electrode assembly 130 along the second direction Y can be quickly exhausted to the exhaust hole 141 along the second exhaust grooves 1422 arranged on the other side of the exhaust support 140 along the third direction Z, and then quickly exhausted to the outside through the explosion-proof valve 1221 via the exhaust hole 141. In this way, the high-temperature gas is more beneficially divided, thereby maximizing the exhaust efficiency and minimizing the risk of explosion of the single battery 100.

[0061] For example, Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown in the above embodiments of this application, along the direction of the exhaust support 140 near the second end cover 122, the width of the first exhaust groove 1421 and the second exhaust groove 1422 gradually increases.

[0062] In this embodiment, by setting the width of the first exhaust groove 1421 and the second exhaust groove 1422 to gradually increase along the direction of the exhaust support 140 near the second end cover 122, the exhaust area of ​​the first exhaust groove 1421 and the second exhaust groove 1422 is increased, which helps to improve the exhaust efficiency and reduce the risk of explosion of the single cell battery 100.

[0063] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the above embodiments of this application, a plurality of first exhaust grooves 1421 are provided, and the plurality of first exhaust grooves 1421 are respectively arranged opposite to each other along the first direction X.

[0064] In this embodiment, by setting the number of first exhaust channels 1421 to multiple, and arranging the multiple first exhaust channels 1421 opposite to each other along the first direction X, the high-temperature gas generated on one side of the electrode assembly 130 along the first direction X can be quickly discharged to the exhaust port 141 through one of the first exhaust channels 1421, and then quickly discharged through the explosion-proof valve 1221 via the exhaust port 141. Furthermore, the high-temperature gas generated on the other side of the electrode assembly 130 along the first direction X can be quickly discharged to the exhaust port 141 through the other first exhaust channel 1421, and then quickly discharged through the explosion-proof valve 1221 via the exhaust port 141, effectively improving exhaust efficiency and reducing the risk of explosion of the single battery 100.

[0065] In one embodiment of this application, the second end cap 122 is provided with a first positioning hole, which penetrates the second end cap 122 in a third direction Z. The exhaust support 140 is provided with a first positioning post that cooperates with the first positioning hole on the side away from the electrode assembly 130.

[0066] In this embodiment, a first positioning hole is opened in the second end cover 122 along the third direction Z, penetrating the second end cover 122. A first positioning post is provided on the side of the exhaust support 140 away from the electrode assembly 130, which cooperates with the first positioning hole. Under the cooperation of the first positioning hole and the first positioning post, the exhaust support 140 is stably and accurately positioned on the side of the second end cover 122 close to the electrode assembly 130, so as to avoid the exhaust support 140 from being displaced relative to the second end cover 122 and affecting the exhaust efficiency.

[0067] like Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, the single battery cell 100 further comprises an insulation layer 150, which is arranged in the accommodating cavity 111 and wraps the electrode assembly 130, and the exhaust support 140 is heat-fusedly connected with the insulation layer 150. The exhaust support 140 and the insulation layer 150 abut at one end along the third direction Z and are heat-fusedly connected together.

[0068] In the present embodiment, the insulation layer is arranged in the accommodating cavity 111 and wraps the electrode assembly 130 to play an insulation protection role for the electrode assembly 130, avoiding the technical problem of short circuit caused by the contact between the electrode assembly 130 and the exhaust support 140 or the shell 110.

[0069] Meanwhile, the exhaust support 140 is heat-fusedly connected with the insulation layer 150 to make the exhaust support 140 stably and accurately abut at the side of the electrode assembly 130 close to the second end cover 122, avoiding the displacement of the exhaust support 140 relative to the electrode assembly 130 or the second end cover 122 to affect the exhaust efficiency.

[0070] It can be understood that the exhaust support 140 is provided with a second positioning hole penetrating therethrough along the third direction Z, and the side of the insulation layer 150 close to the second end cover 122 is provided with a second positioning column matched with the second positioning hole, and the second positioning column is heat-fusedly connected with the exhaust support 140 after being penetrated into the second positioning hole, so as to make the exhaust support 140 stably and accurately abut at the side of the electrode assembly 130 close to the second end cover 122 under the heat-fused connection, avoiding the displacement of the exhaust support 140 relative to the electrode assembly 130 or the second end cover 122 to affect the exhaust efficiency.

[0071] For example, the insulation layer 150 and the second positioning column can be integrally formed by injection molding or heat-fusedly connected.

[0072] The embodiments of the present application also provide a battery pack comprising the single battery cell 100 in any of the above embodiments.

[0073] The battery pack has the single battery cell 100 in any of the above embodiments, and thus has all the beneficial effects of the single battery cell 100, which will not be repeated here.

When there are multiple single battery cells 100, the multiple single battery cells 100 can be connected in series or in parallel, or in a combination of series and parallel connection.
