Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithium battery technology, specifically to a positive electrode pad and a negative electrode pad for mounting cylindrical lithium battery tabs. Background Technology

[0002] Cylindrical lithium batteries possess advantages such as high capacity, high output voltage, good charge-discharge cycle performance, stable output voltage, electrochemical stability, safety during use, and a wide operating temperature range, leading to their widespread application in various fields. A cylindrical lithium battery comprises a wound cell, a negative electrode pad mounted on the underside of the wound cell, and a positive electrode pad mounted on the topside of the wound cell. Both the positive and negative electrode pads are made of insulating material and have tab through-holes to facilitate connection between the tabs and the wound cell.

[0003] For example, Chinese Patent No. 20232061349.1, published on September 15, 2023, discloses a negative electrode pad for a cylindrical lithium battery, including an insulating pad body. The insulating pad body is circular in shape. A first tab through hole is opened on one side of the insulating pad body, and a second tab through hole is opened on the other side. The first tab through hole and the second tab through hole are both fan-shaped. The center of the first tab through hole and the second tab through hole are at the same point as the center of the insulating pad body. The distance between the second tab through hole and the center is greater than the distance between the first tab through hole and the center. The axis of symmetry of the first tab through hole and the axis of symmetry of the second tab through hole are on the same straight line as the center of the insulating pad body.

[0004] The aforementioned literature describes a method where different tab through-holes are provided on both sides of the insulating pad body, allowing the tabs connected to the wound battery core to be connected together from both sides of the insulating pad body. However, due to the difference in the position of the tabs on the wound battery core, the position of the tabs cannot be guaranteed after the battery core is wound, thus making it impossible for the position of the tabs to correspond with the position of the tab through-holes. This makes it inconvenient for the tabs to pass through the pad. In addition, when the tabs are bent, the negative electrode pad is easily warped. Utility Model Content
