Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0042] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides a button cell casing for preparing a three-electrode battery, comprising a positive electrode casing 1, a negative electrode casing 2, an insulating ring 3, and a reference electrode 4.
[0043] In this structure, a notch 101 is provided on the side of the positive electrode shell 1, through which one end of the reference electrode 4 extends into the interior of the positive electrode shell 1 to connect with the separator; the insulating ring 3 is embedded inside the positive electrode shell 1 and abuts against the top of the reference electrode 4; the negative electrode shell 2 is fastened to the top of the insulating ring 3. This structure introduces a third electrode as a reference electrode based on the existing button cell shell, thereby enabling it to function as a three-electrode battery.
[0044] Compared to the existing pouch-type three-electrode battery structure, using this button cell casing to manufacture three-electrode batteries can not only shorten the manufacturing cycle and cost of three-electrode batteries and reduce the requirements for manual skills, but also improve the yield rate and reduce material waste.
[0045] Specifically, when installing a button cell, the reference electrode 4 is connected to the separator via copper wire 6. For example... Figure 4 As shown, copper wire 6 is placed at the bottom inside the positive electrode shell 1, and one end of copper wire 6 is welded and fixed to the end of the reference electrode 4 that extends into the positive electrode shell 1. Since copper wire 6 can be bent at will and has good flexibility, it facilitates the connection operation between copper wire 6 and the separator, further improving the manufacturing efficiency of the three-electrode battery.
[0046] It should be noted that the reference electrode 4 is a rectangular sheet-shaped nickel electrode. During the fabrication of this button-type three-electrode battery, the copper wire 6 needs to be treated with sulfuric acid to remove surface oxides.
[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, the positive electrode shell 1, the negative electrode shell 2, and the insulating ring 3 are coaxially arranged. During assembly, the insulating ring 3 is first installed inside the positive electrode shell 1, and then the negative electrode shell 2 is installed on the insulating ring 3.Figure 1 In the embodiment, the top of the insulating ring 3 is provided with a ring groove 301, and the lower end of the negative shell 2 is embedded in the ring groove 301 to realize the installation of the negative shell 2.

During assembly, one end of the reference electrode 4 extends into the interior of the positive shell 1 through the gap 101, and then the insulating ring 3 is embedded on the inner side of the positive shell 1. After embedding, the positioning groove 302 is sleeved on the outer side of the reference electrode 4, and at the same time, the groove bottom of the positioning groove 302 abuts downward against the reference electrode 4 to fix the extending end of the reference electrode 4 at the bottom of the positive shell 1.
[0049] As shown in Figures 4-5 , the side of the insulating ring 3 is provided with a planar key table 303, and the key table 303 and the positive shell 1 form an embedding groove 102 in communication with the gap 101; one end of the insulating key 5 is embedded in the embedding groove 102, and the other end is embedded in the gap 101, and in combination Figure 3 , the bottom of the insulating key 5 abuts against the top of the reference electrode 4. Specifically, the bottom of the insulating key 5 is provided with a matching groove 501 with an opening downward, wherein the reference electrode 4 penetrates through the matching groove 501, and the top of the reference electrode 4 abuts against the groove bottom of the matching groove 501.
[0050] The shape of the embedding groove 102 is matched with the insulating key 5. When the insulating ring 3 is embedded, the insulating key 5 is embedded in the embedding groove 102, and after embedding, the side end of the insulating key 5 abuts against the key table 303. At the same time, the embedding groove 102 is sleeved on the outer side of the reference electrode 4, and the groove bottom of the embedding groove 102 abuts downward against the reference electrode 4 to fix the reference electrode 4 at the bottom of the gap 101. This mechanism realizes the secondary fixation of the reference electrode 4, improves the stability of the reference electrode 4, and at the same time, seals the gap 101 through the insulating key 5 to ensure the sealing performance of the side of the three-electrode battery.
[0051] The end of the insulating key 5 away from the key table 303 is aligned with the outer side of the positive shell 1. Figure 1 In the embodiment, the positive shell 1, the negative shell 2 and the insulating ring 3 are circular, the end of the insulating key 5 close to the key table 303 is a straight surface, and the other end is an arc surface matched with the outer arc surface of the insulating ring 3. At the same time, the middle of the arc surface is convex, the convex is used to embed in the gap 101, and the outer end of the convex is also arc-shaped, which is matched with the arc surface on the outer side of the positive shell 1.
[0052] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the inner side of the positive shell 1 and the outer side of the negative shell 2 and the top of the insulating ring 3 form a sealing glue filling groove 103 for filling sealing glue to ensure the sealing of the top of the three-electrode battery.
[0053] The assembly process of the button cell shell for preparing the three-electrode battery is as follows:
[0054] First, the copper wire 6 is welded on the reference electrode 4, then the copper wire 6 is put into the positive shell 1, and one end of the reference electrode 4 is located at the inner side of the notch 101. Then, the insulating ring 3 is embedded in the positive shell 1, after being in place, the reference electrode 4 is located at the inner side of the positioning groove 302, at this time, the copper wire 6 is located at the inner side of the insulating ring 3. Subsequently, the insulating key 5 is embedded in the embedding groove 102, after being in place, the reference electrode 4 is located at the inner side of the embedding groove 102. Finally, the lower end of the negative shell 2 is embedded in the ring groove 301.
[0055] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not used to limit the present application, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. within the spirit and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
