Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery bipolar plate structure technology, specifically to a flow channel battery electrode plate with an overflow groove. Background Technology

[0002] Bipolar plates, also known as current collectors, use designed and manufactured flow channels to evenly distribute gas to the reaction layer of the electrodes for electrode reactions. The flow channels on the surface of the bipolar plate ensure uniform penetration and flow of electrolyte on the electrodes, avoiding uneven distribution of electrolyte on the electrodes, thereby improving the charge and discharge performance of the battery and the system capacity.

[0003] To ensure the sealing of the bipolar plate and the battery, the electrode plate needs to be glued to the battery. In order to ensure that the glue is evenly distributed on the outside of the flow channel, a sealing groove is set on the outside of the coolant flow channel. A hybrid structure flow field fuel cell bipolar plate can be referred to in the announcement number CN 206697552U. By setting a sealing groove around the outer periphery of the flow channel, the glue is applied in the sealing groove, thereby restricting the flow range of the glue. However, it is difficult to control the amount of glue sprayed during filling. If too much glue is sprayed, the glue will overflow after the electrode plate is bonded to the battery, which will affect the flatness of the bipolar plate pressing and thus affect the flow of electrolyte in the flow channel.

[0004] To solve the problem of glue overflow, a hydrogen fuel cell anode plate flow channel structure with a glue overflow groove structure can be referred to in the announcement number CN220692061U. The cooling flow channel sealing groove is provided with a first glue overflow groove and a second glue overflow groove. The second glue overflow groove is arranged parallel to the outside of the cooling flow channel sealing groove, and the first glue overflow groove is arranged vertically to the cooling flow channel sealing groove and passes through the second glue overflow groove and the cooling flow channel sealing groove in sequence.

[0005] The aforementioned sealing groove can guide excess glue, which is squeezed onto the overflow groove, preventing it from overflowing into other parts outside the sealing groove. However, the first overflow groove, the second overflow groove, and the cooling channel sealing groove form a right angle at their through-connection. The glue itself has a certain viscosity. If the assembly environment temperature is high, the glue may become too viscous, causing poor flow. Glue residue may accumulate at some of the through-connection right angles, resulting in different glue overflow situations in the multiple first overflow grooves. This leads to uneven glue distribution in the sealing groove, affecting the flatness of the bipolar plate pressing. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flow channel battery plate with an overflow groove, which can improve the technical problem of glue sticking in the overflow groove.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, a flow channel battery electrode plate with overflow grooves includes an electrode plate body, a groove is formed in the center of the electrode plate body, a flow channel is formed in the groove, an adhesive channel is formed on the outer periphery of the flow channel, a plurality of overflow grooves are formed along the outer periphery of the adhesive channel, a conical arc surface is formed at the corner of the overflow groove and the adhesive channel, a first arc-shaped surface is formed at the bottom of the adhesive channel groove, an adhesive outlet is formed at the end of the overflow groove, and a second arc-shaped surface is formed on the surface of the adhesive outlet and the electrode plate.

[0008] Further configuration involves the curved conical surface contacting the bottom of the adhesive channel, and the bottom surface of the curved surface contacting the top of the adhesive channel.

[0009] A further feature is that the top of the overflow groove is provided with rounded corners.

[0010] Further, the outlet cross-section is set to be U-shaped.

[0011] Further configured, the second arc extends to the side of the electrode body.

[0012] A further configuration is that the overflow groove is perpendicular to the glue channel.

[0013] Further configuration involves several overflow grooves evenly arranged on the outside of the glue channel.

[0014] Further configured, the bottom surfaces of the overflow groove and the glue channel have the same maximum width.

[0015] Further settings include setting the flow channel to an S-shape.

[0016] Further configuration involves mounting holes located on the outer periphery of the serpentine flow channel and at the four corners of the groove.

[0017] The beneficial effects of one or more of the above technical solutions:

[0018] A conical arc surface is set at the junction of the overflow groove and the glue channel. The larger arc surface contacts the top of the groove, while the smaller arc surface contacts the bottom of the groove. This ensures smooth cornering while reducing the corner area. At the same time, the bottom of the overflow groove and the inner wall of the groove are provided with an arc surface. The glue outlet of the overflow groove has a U-shaped cross section, and the surface connecting the glue outlet and the electrode plate is provided with an arc surface. There are no right angles at the junction of the overflow groove, which reduces the occurrence of glue jamming and improves glue flow performance. An overflow groove is set on the outside of the glue channel of the electrode plate. When the glue volume is large, the excess glue can flow out of the glue channel through the overflow groove, making the glue flow more uniform and the sealing effect better.
