[0070] In the above technical solution, on one hand, the minimum distance between the outer edge of the front projection of the first connecting portion in the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the wall portion and the front projection of the lead-out piece is set to be greater than or equal to 1mm, so as to increase the distance between the area of the lead-out piece forming a welding mark and the outer edge of the lead-out piece, thereby facilitating the reduction of the phenomenon of melting of the outer edge of the lead-out piece, so as to improve the welding quality between the lead-out piece and the busbar component; on the other hand, the minimum distance between the outer edge of the front projection of the first connecting portion in the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the wall portion and the front projection of the lead-out piece is set to be less than or equal to 2.5mm, so as to alleviate the phenomenon that the area of the lead-out piece for mutual welding with the busbar component is limited due to the excessively large distance, thereby increasing the size of the connecting portion formed by mutual welding of the lead-out piece and the busbar component, so as to further improve the connection stability and overcurrent effect between the lead-out piece and the busbar component.

[0071] In some embodiments, along the thickness direction of the wall portion, the thickness of the area of the busbar component and the lead-out piece welded and connected is D4, satisfying 1.2mm≤D4≤3mm.

[0072] In the above technical solution, by setting the thickness of the area of the busbar component and the lead-out piece for mutual welding to be 1.2mm to 3mm, on one hand, the thickness of the area of the busbar component and the lead-out piece for mutual welding is set to be greater than or equal to 1.2mm, so as to improve the overcurrent performance of the busbar component, thereby improving the conductive effect of the busbar component, and at the same time, the welding power and the welding molten pool between the busbar component and the lead-out piece are increased, so that the protective layer arranged on the side of the lead-out piece facing the wall portion can effectively separate the area of the lead-out piece welded and melted, thereby reducing the risk of affecting other components after the lead-out piece is welded and melted; on the other hand, the thickness of the area of the busbar component and the lead-out piece for mutual welding is set to be less than or equal to 3mm, so as to reduce the phenomenon of excessive waste of the busbar component or excessively large welding power required, thereby reducing the welding difficulty between the busbar component and the lead-out piece, and reducing the manufacturing cost of the busbar component.

[0073] In some embodiments, the lead-out piece is provided with a first limiting groove on a surface of the lead-out piece facing the wall portion in the thickness direction of the wall portion, the protective layer has a third surface facing away from the wall portion, the third surface is provided with a first limiting protrusion, and the first limiting protrusion is inserted into the first limiting groove; wherein the first limiting groove is formed with a notch on the surface of the lead-out piece facing the wall portion, and a projection of the first connecting portion in a projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the wall portion is located outside a projection of the notch.

[0074] In the above technical solution, the first limiting groove is arranged on the surface of the lead-out piece facing the wall portion, and the first limiting protrusion corresponding to the first limiting groove is arranged on the third surface of the protective layer facing away from the wall portion, so as to realize the limiting and positioning between the protective layer and the lead-out piece, thereby improving the assembly precision and stability between the protective layer and the lead-out piece. In addition, by arranging the projection of the first connecting portion of the connecting portion in the thickness direction of the wall portion outside the notch of the first limiting groove, the projection of the first connecting portion and the groove wall surface of the first limiting groove in the thickness direction of the wall portion do not overlap, thereby reducing the influence of the first limiting groove on the mutual welding connection between the lead-out piece and the busbar component, and improving the welding quality between the lead-out piece and the busbar component.

[0075] In a third aspect, the embodiments of the present application also provide a power utilization device comprising the battery monomer or the battery device. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0136] The battery device mentioned in the embodiments of the present application can include one or more battery cell assemblies for providing voltage and capacity. The battery cell assembly can include a plurality of battery cells connected in series, in parallel, or in a mixed connection through a busbar component.

[0137] In some embodiments, the battery cell assembly is generally formed by arranging a plurality of battery cells; as an example, the battery cell assembly can be a battery module formed by arranging and fixing a plurality of battery cells into an independent module. As an example, the battery module can be formed by bundling a plurality of battery cells with a cable tie.

[0138] In some embodiments, the battery device can be a battery pack including a box and one or more battery cell assemblies housed in the box.

[0139] As an example, the battery cell assembly can be a battery module, which can be housed in the box by fixing the battery module in the box.

[0140] As an example, the battery cell assembly can also be housed in the box by directly fixing a plurality of battery cells in the box.

[0141] As an example, the box can include a first box body and a second box body. The first box body and the second box body are buckled so that the inside of the box forms a closed space to accommodate the battery monomer assembly. The closed here refers to covering or closing, which can be sealed or unsealed. The first box body can be a top cover or a bottom plate.

[0142] As an example, the box can include a top cover, a frame and a bottom plate. The top cover and the bottom plate are connected with the frame respectively, so that the inside of the box forms a closed space to accommodate the battery monomer assembly.

[0143] As an example, the box can be part of the chassis structure of the vehicle. For example, the top cover of the box can be at least part of the floor of the vehicle, or the frame of the box can be at least part of the cross beam and the longitudinal beam of the vehicle.

[0144] In some embodiments, the battery device refers to an energy storage device, and the energy storage device includes a box, at least one side of which is provided with a door. The energy storage device includes an energy storage container, an energy storage cabinet, etc.

[0145] The battery device has the advantages of high energy density, small environmental pollution, large power density, long service life, wide adaptation range, small self-discharge coefficient, etc., and is an important part of the development of new energy today. The development of battery technology needs to consider many design factors, such as energy density, cycle life, discharge capacity, charge-discharge rate and other performance parameters, in addition, the reliability of the battery device also needs to be considered.

[0146] For a general battery monomer, the battery monomer includes a shell and an electrode assembly contained in the shell, and an electrode terminal is arranged on an end cover of the shell. The electrode terminal includes a connecting piece and a lead-out piece connected with each other. The connecting piece is arranged in the end cover, and the lead-out piece is located outside the end cover. The input or output of the electric energy of the battery monomer can be realized by connecting the connecting piece of the electrode terminal with the tab of the electrode assembly. An insulating component is arranged between the end cover and the lead-out piece of the electrode terminal to reduce the risk of short circuit between the lead-out piece of the electrode terminal and the end cover through the insulating component. In the related art, when a plurality of battery monomers are assembled to form a battery device, a busbar component is usually arranged in the battery device to realize the series connection or parallel connection between the plurality of battery monomers in the battery device by welding the busbar component with the lead-out pieces of the electrode terminals of the plurality of battery monomers. However, in order to meet the penetration requirement of the welding connection between the lead-out piece of the electrode terminal and the busbar component, the electrode terminal of the battery monomer in the related art is prone to the risk of the lead-out piece of the electrode terminal being welded through when being welded with the busbar component, which easily causes the insulating component arranged between the lead-out piece and the end cover to be melted or damaged, thereby causing the risk of insulation failure between the lead-out piece and the end cover, and making the electrode terminal and the shell prone to short circuit during use, which is not conducive to improving the use reliability of the battery monomer.

[0147] In view of the above, in order to solve the problem of low reliability in use of the battery cell, the battery cell provided by the embodiments of the present application includes a shell, an electrode assembly, a first electrode terminal, a first insulating member and a protective layer. The shell has a wall portion. The electrode assembly is accommodated in the shell. The first electrode terminal is electrically connected with the electrode assembly, and the first electrode terminal includes a lead-out member located on the side of the wall portion away from the electrode assembly, and the lead-out member is used to be welded with a busbar and form a first connecting portion on the lead-out member. At least part of the first insulating member is arranged between the lead-out member and the wall portion in the thickness direction of the wall portion, and in the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the wall portion, the orthographic projection of the first insulating member overlaps at least part of the orthographic projection of the first connecting portion. At least part of the protective layer is arranged between the lead-out member and the first insulating member, the melting point of the protective layer is greater than the melting point of the lead-out member, and in the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the wall portion, at least part of the orthographic projection of the first connecting portion is located in the orthographic projection of the protective layer.

[0148] In the battery cell with the above structure, the first electrode terminal is electrically connected with the electrode assembly, and the lead-out member of the first electrode terminal located on the side of the wall portion away from the electrode assembly is used to be welded with the busbar to realize the input or output of the electric energy of the battery cell through the first electrode terminal. In addition, the first insulating member is arranged between the lead-out member and the wall portion, so that the first insulating member can insulate and separate the lead-out member and the wall portion. However, since the orthographic projection of the first insulating member in the thickness direction of the wall portion overlaps at least part of the orthographic projection of the first connecting portion in the thickness direction of the wall portion, by arranging the protective layer between the lead-out member and the wall portion, the melting point of the protective layer is greater than the melting point of the lead-out member, and at least part of the orthographic projection of the first connecting portion in the thickness direction of the wall portion is located in the protective layer. Therefore, the protective layer can protect and separate the first insulating member when the lead-out member is welded with the busbar, so as to reduce the phenomenon that the lead-out member is burnt or melted after being welded through, thereby reducing the risk of the lead-out member being welded through without increasing the thickness of the lead-out member, so as to effectively reduce the risk of insulation failure between the lead-out member and the wall portion after the first insulating member is damaged while optimizing the thickness of the lead-out member, and further reducing the risk of short circuit of the first electrode terminal and the shell in use, thereby improving the reliability of the battery cell in use.

[0149] The battery cell disclosed by the embodiments of the present application can be used in an electric device such as a vehicle, a ship or an aircraft, etc. The power supply system of the electric device can be composed of the battery cell and the battery device disclosed by the present application. In this way, the problem that the battery cell is prone to short circuit in use can be solved, thereby improving the reliability of the battery cell in use.

[0150] The embodiments of the present application provide a power consumption device using a battery monomer or a battery device as a power supply. The power consumption device can be, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet, a notebook computer, an electric toy, an electric tool, an electric vehicle, an electric automobile, a ship, a spacecraft and the like. The electric toy can include a fixed or mobile electric toy, such as a game machine, an electric automobile toy, an electric ship toy and an electric aircraft toy and the like. The spacecraft can include an airplane, a rocket, a space shuttle and a spacecraft and the like.

The battery device 100 can be used to supply power for the vehicle 1000, for example, the battery device 100 can be used as an operating power supply or a use power supply of the vehicle 1000. The vehicle 1000 can further include a controller 200 and a motor 300. The controller 200 is used to control the battery device 100 to supply power for the motor 300, for example, to meet the power consumption demand of the vehicle 1000 during starting, navigation and driving.

[0153] In some embodiments of the present application, the battery device 100 can not only be used as an operating power supply or a use power supply of the vehicle 1000, but also be used as a driving power supply of the vehicle 1000, to replace or partially replace fuel or natural gas to provide driving power for the vehicle 1000.

[0154] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 A structural exploded view of the battery device 100 provided by some embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 2.

The battery device 100 includes a box body 10 and the battery monomer 20. The battery monomer 20 is used to be accommodated in the box body 10.

[0155] The box body 10 is used to provide an assembling space for the battery monomer 20, and the box body 10 can adopt various structures. In some embodiments, the box body 10 can include a first box body 11 and a second box body 12, the first box body 11 and the second box body 12 are mutually covered, and the first box body 11 and the second box body 12 jointly define an assembling space for accommodating the battery monomer 20.

[0157] In the battery device 100, the battery monomer 20 arranged in the box body 10 can be one or multiple. When the battery monomer 20 arranged in the box body 10 is multiple, the multiple battery monomers 20 can be in series connection, parallel connection or mixed connection, and the mixed connection means that the multiple battery monomers 20 are in both series connection and parallel connection. The multiple battery monomers 20 can be directly connected in series, parallel or mixed connection, and then the whole of the multiple battery monomers 20 is accommodated in the box body 10; of course, the battery device 100 can also be that the multiple battery monomers 20 are first connected in series, parallel or mixed connection to form a battery module, and then the multiple battery modules are connected in series, parallel or mixed connection to form a whole, which is accommodated in the box body 10.

[0158] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 , the battery device 100 can further include a current collecting component 30, which is used to connect the multiple battery monomers 20 to realize the electrical connection between the multiple battery monomers 20.

The present application provides a battery cell 20, which includes a housing 21, an electrode assembly 22, a first electrode terminal 23a, a first insulating member 24, and a protective layer 25. The housing 21 has a wall portion 211. The electrode assembly 22 is accommodated in the housing 21. The first electrode terminal 23a is electrically connected to the electrode assembly 22, and the first electrode terminal 23a includes a lead-out piece 231 located on a side of the wall portion 211 facing away from the electrode assembly 22, and the lead-out piece 231 is used for welding connection with the busbar component 30 and forming a first connection portion 41 on the lead-out piece 231. At least part of the first insulating member 24 is arranged between the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, and in a projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the orthographic projection of the first insulating member 24 at least partially overlaps the orthographic projection of the first connection portion 41. At least part of the protective layer 25 is arranged between the lead-out piece 231 and the first insulating member 24, the melting point of the protective layer 25 is greater than the melting point of the lead-out piece 231, and in the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction X of the wall portion, at least part of the orthographic projection of the first connection portion 41 is located within the orthographic projection of the protective layer 25.

[0161] The housing 21 can also be used to accommodate an electrolyte, for example, an electrolyte solution. The housing 21 can have various structural forms, such as a cylinder or a cuboid, etc. Similarly, the material of the housing 21 can also be various, such as copper, iron, aluminum, steel, or aluminum alloy, etc.

[0162] In some embodiments, the housing 21 can be a sealed structure, or a non-sealed structure. As an example, when the housing 21 is a sealed structure, the housing 21 can play a role in protecting the electrode assembly 22 and to some extent preventing electrolyte leakage, etc. When the housing 21 is a non-sealed structure, the housing 21 can play a role in protecting the electrode assembly 22, and a sealing bag can be further included between the housing 21 and the electrode assembly 22, which is used to package the electrode assembly 22 and the electrolyte, etc. Specifically, the sealing bag can be a bag-shaped insulating member or an aluminum plastic film.

[0163] Optionally, the shell 21 can include a shell body 212 and an end cover 213, the shell body 212 has an accommodating cavity formed inside for accommodating the electrode assembly 22, and the accommodating cavity has an opening 2121, that is, the shell body 212 is a hollow structure with the opening 2121 formed at one end, and the end cover 213 is sealedly connected to the opening 2121 of the shell body 212 to form a sealed space for accommodating the electrode assembly 22 and the electrolyte.

[0164] The shell body 212 includes a bottom wall and a side wall, the bottom wall is arranged opposite to the end cover 213, the side wall is arranged around the bottom wall, and one end of the side wall is connected to the bottom wall and the other end of the side wall forms the opening 2121.

[0165] It should be noted that the wall portion 211 can be the end cover 213 of the shell 21, or can be a wall of the shell body 212 of the shell 21. Exemplarily, in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the wall portion 211 is the end cover 213. Of course, the structure of the battery monomer 20 is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the wall portion 211 can also be the bottom wall of the shell body 212 arranged opposite to the end cover 213, and the wall portion 211 can also be the side wall of the shell body 212 adjacent to the end cover 213 and connected to each other.

[0166] In the assembly of the battery monomer 20, the electrode assembly 22 can be first placed into the shell body 212, and the electrolyte is filled into the shell body 212, and then the end cover 213 is sealed to the opening 2121 of the shell body 212 to complete the assembly of the battery monomer 20.

[0167] The shell body 212 can have various shapes, such as a cylindrical structure, a cuboid structure, or a prism structure, etc. The shape of the shell body 212 can be determined according to the specific shape of the electrode assembly 22. For example, if the electrode assembly 22 is a cylindrical structure, a cylindrical shell body 212 can be selected; if the electrode assembly 22 is a cuboid structure, a cuboid shell body 212 can be selected. Of course, the structure of the end cover 213 can also be various, such as a plate structure or a hollow structure with one end open, etc. Exemplarily, in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the shell body 212 is a cuboid structure.

[0168] Of course, it is understandable that the shell 21 is not limited to the above structure, and the shell 21 can also be other structures, for example, the shell 21 can include a shell body 212 and two end covers 213, the shell body 212 is a hollow structure with openings 2121 formed on opposite sides, and one end cover 213 corresponds to cover and form a sealed connection at one opening 2121 of the shell body 212 to form a sealed space for accommodating the electrode assembly 22 and the electrolyte, that is, the shell body 212 is formed with openings 2121 on opposite sides, and the two end covers 213 cover the two sides of the shell body 212 respectively to close the corresponding openings 2121.

[0169] Optionally, the structure of the electrode assembly 22 can be various, for example, the electrode assembly 22 can be a winding structure formed by winding the positive plate, the separator and the negative plate, or a laminated structure formed by laminating the positive plate, the separator and the negative plate.

[0170] Exemplarily, the separator is a separator film, and the main material of the separator film can be selected from at least one of glass fiber, non-woven fabric, polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinylidene fluoride.

[0171] Among them, the electrode assembly 22 includes a main body part 221 and a tab 222, the main body part 221 is the main part of the electrode assembly 22 for electrochemical reaction in the battery monomer 20, and exemplarily, in the Figure 5 Among them, the tab 222 is connected to one end of the main body part 221 facing the wall part 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall part, that is, in the thickness direction X of the wall part, the tab 222 is located between the main body part 221 and the wall part 211, so as to connect the tab 222 with the first electrode terminal 23a.

[0172] It should be noted that the tab 222 of the electrode assembly 22 is a part formed by mutually laminating the regions on the positive plate which are not coated with the positive active material layer or the regions on the negative plate which are not coated with the negative active material layer. If the tab 222 is the positive tab of the electrode assembly 22, the tab 222 is a part formed by mutually laminating the regions on the positive plate which are not coated with the positive active material layer; if the tab 222 is the negative tab of the electrode assembly 22, the tab 222 is a part formed by mutually laminating the regions on the negative plate which are not coated with the negative active material layer.

[0173] Optionally, the electrode assembly 22 accommodated in the shell 21 can be one or more. Exemplarily, in Figure 5 Among them, the shell 21 of the battery monomer 20 is provided with two electrode assemblies 22, and the two electrode assemblies 22 are laminated along the thickness direction of the battery monomer 20, of course, in other embodiments, the number of electrode assemblies 22 accommodated in the shell 21 of the battery monomer 20 can also be three, four, five or six, etc.

[0174] In the embodiment of the present application, the battery monomer 20 includes two electrode terminals 23, both of which serve to electrically connect the electrode assembly 22 as the positive and negative electrodes of the battery monomer 20, so as to be capable of matching the input or output of the electric energy of the battery monomer 20.

[0175] Among them, the two electrode terminals 23 include a first electrode terminal 23a and a second electrode terminal 23b with opposite polarities. For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the first electrode terminal 23a is the positive electrode of the battery monomer 20, and correspondingly, the second electrode terminal 23b is the negative electrode of the battery monomer 20. Of course, in other embodiments, the first electrode terminal 23a can also be the negative electrode of the battery monomer 20, and correspondingly, the second electrode terminal 23b is the positive electrode of the battery monomer 20.

[0176] In Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the first electrode terminal 23a and the second electrode terminal 23b are arranged on the wall portion 211, and correspondingly, each electrode assembly 22 has two tabs 222, both of which are connected to one end of the main body portion 221 facing the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion. The two tabs 222 are oppositely polarized and arranged in a spaced manner, i.e. the two tabs 222 are the positive and negative tabs of the electrode assembly 22, respectively. The first electrode terminal 23a and the second electrode terminal 23b are electrically connected to the two tabs 222 of the electrode assembly 22, respectively, so as to realize the input or output of the electric energy of the battery monomer 20.

[0177] In Figure 6 , the electrode terminal 23 includes a lead-out piece 231 and a connecting piece 232. The lead-out piece 231 is located on the side of the wall portion 211 away from the electrode assembly 22 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, and is used for welding connection with the busbar component 30. The connecting piece 232 is connected to the lead-out piece 231, and the connecting piece 232 is electrically connected to the tab 222 of the electrode assembly 22.

[0178] Among them, the connecting piece 232 and the tab 222 of the electrode assembly 22 can be directly connected structures, such as welding connection or abutment, etc., or can be indirectly connected structures, such as the tab 222 of the electrode assembly 22 being connected to the connecting piece 232 through other components.

[0179] In the embodiment of the present application, the current collecting component 30 is arranged on the side of the lead-out piece 231 away from the electrode assembly 22 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, and the current collecting component 30 is welded to the lead-out piece 231. The lead-out piece 231 is used to be welded to the current collecting component 30 and form the first connecting portion 41 on the lead-out piece 231, that is, the first connecting portion 41 is a welding mark formed on the lead-out piece 231 after the lead-out piece 231 and the current collecting component 30 are welded to each other, that is, the lead-out piece 231 is welded to the current collecting component 30 and forms the connecting portion 40, the connecting portion 40 includes the first connecting portion 41 and the second connecting portion 42 connected to each other, the first connecting portion 41 is embedded in the lead-out piece 231, and the second connecting portion 42 is embedded in the current collecting component 30. Correspondingly, the connecting portion 40 is a region of mutual melting or a region of welding mark formed by the mutual welding of the lead-out piece 231 and the current collecting component 30. The first connecting portion 41 is the part of the connecting portion 40 embedded in the lead-out piece 231, and the second connecting portion 42 is the part of the connecting portion 40 embedded in the current collecting component 30, and the second connecting portion 42 and the first connecting portion 41 are connected to each other.

[0180] It should be noted that the current collecting component 30 is connected to the electrode terminals 23 of the plurality of battery monomers 20, which can be parallel connection between the plurality of battery monomers 20 through the current collecting component 30, or series connection between the plurality of battery monomers 20 through the current collecting component 30. Exemplarily, in the embodiment shown in Figure 3 , each current collecting component 30 connects the electrode terminals 23 with different polarities in the two adjacent battery monomers 20, that is, each current collecting component 30 connects the first electrode terminal 23a of one of the two adjacent battery monomers 20 and the second electrode terminal 23b of the other battery monomer 20 to realize series connection between the plurality of battery monomers 20.

[0181] Optionally, the connecting structure between the lead-out piece 231 and the connecting piece 232 can be various, such as welding connection or riveting, etc. Exemplarily, referring to Figure 6 , the connecting piece 232 and the lead-out piece 231 are riveted to each other, the lead-out piece 231 is provided with a riveting hole 2311 penetrating through the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, and the connecting piece 232 is inserted into the riveting hole 2311 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion and is riveted to the lead-out piece 231.

[0182] Referring to Figure 6 , the wall portion 211 is provided with an electrode lead-out hole 2111 penetrating through the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, and the connecting piece 232 is inserted into the electrode lead-out hole 2111 so as to connect the connecting piece 232 to the tab 222 of the electrode assembly 22.

[0183] The connecting piece 232 includes a body part 2321 and a limiting part 2322 connected with each other. The body part 2321 is arranged in the electrode lead-out hole 2111 and the riveting hole 2311 along the thickness direction X of the wall part, and the body part 2321 is riveted with the lead-out piece 231. The limiting part 2322 is protruded on the outer circumferential surface of the body part 2321, and the limiting part 2322 is located on the side of the wall part 211 facing the electrode assembly 22. The limiting part 2322 and the lead-out piece 231 can clamp the wall part 211 to assemble the electrode terminal 23 on the wall part 211.

[0184] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the second electrode terminal 23b is the negative electrode of the battery monomer 20. Correspondingly, the lead-out piece 231 of the second electrode terminal 23b is usually a composite structure, that is, the lead-out piece 231 of the second electrode terminal 23b is a double-layer structure composed of two kinds of metal materials, such as hot rolling or cold rolling. Correspondingly, the material of one layer structure of the lead-out piece 231 of the second electrode terminal 23b is the same as that of the busbar 30, and the material of the other layer structure is the same as that of the negative tab of the electrode assembly 22.

[0185] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the battery monomer 20 can also include two current collecting members 26, which are arranged in the housing 21 and are spaced apart. Each current collecting member 26 is used to connect the connecting piece 232 of one electrode terminal 23 and the tabs 222 of the same polarity in the plurality of electrode assemblies 22, so as to realize the electrical connection between the two electrode terminals 23 and the electrode assemblies 22, and facilitate the assembly difficulty between the tabs 222 and the electrode terminals 23.

[0186] For example, the current collecting member 26 is welded with the tab 222. Of course, in other embodiments, the current collecting member 26 and the tab 222 can also be abutted or clamped.

[0187] For example, the material of the current collecting member 26 can also be various, such as copper, iron, aluminum, steel or aluminum alloy.

[0188] In the embodiment of the present application, the first insulating piece 24 serves to insulate and isolate the lead-out piece 231 and the wall part 211, so that the lead-out piece 231 is insulatively mounted on the wall part 211, and the lead-out piece 231 and the wall part 211 are not electrically connected.

[0189] Optionally, the material of the first insulating piece 24 can be various, such as rubber, plastic or silicone.

[0190] At least part of the first insulation piece 24 is arranged between the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, that is, the first insulation piece 24 can be a structure that is entirely located between the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, or can be a structure that is only partially located between the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion.

[0191] Exemplarily, in the wall portion 21, the first insulation piece 24 is a structure that is only partially located between the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion. Figure 6 and Figure 7 Exemplarily, in the wall portion 21, the first insulation piece 24 is a structure that is only partially located between the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion.

[0192] In the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the orthographic projection of the first insulation piece 24 at least partially overlaps the orthographic projection of the first connecting portion 41, that is, the welding marks formed on the lead-out piece 231 by the welding connection between the lead-out piece 231 and the busbar component 30 are at least partially located in the first insulation piece 24 in the projection in the thickness direction X of the wall portion.

[0193] In the embodiments of the present application, at least part of the protective layer 25 is arranged between the lead-out piece 231 and the first insulation piece 24, so as to separate the lead-out piece 231 and the first insulation piece 24 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, and to alleviate the damage to the first insulation piece 24 caused by the welding connection between the lead-out piece 231 and the busbar component 30.

[0194] In the embodiments of the present application, the melting point of the protective layer 25 is greater than the melting point of the lead-out piece 231, that is, the protective layer 25 is more resistant to high temperature than the lead-out piece 231, and the temperature required for the protective layer 25 to be destroyed, decomposed, softened or melted is higher than the temperature required for the lead-out piece 231 to be melted.

[0195] Exemplarily, the material of the lead-out piece 231 is aluminum, and correspondingly, the protective layer 25 can be a metal material, such as copper, iron, steel or the like. Of course, the protective layer 25 can also be a non-metal material, such as ceramic or mica. It should be noted that in the embodiments in which the protective layer 25 is a non-metal material, if the protective layer 25 does not have a fixed melting point, that is, the melting point of the protective layer 25 is a range value, in the embodiments of the present application, the lowest melting point of the protective layer 25 of this material is greater than the melting point of the lead-out piece 231.

[0196] In the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction X of the wall portion, at least part of the orthographic projection of the first connecting portion 41 is located in the orthographic projection of the protective layer 25, that is, the welding marks formed on the lead-out piece 231 by the welding connection between the lead-out piece 231 and the busbar component 30 are at least partially located in the protective layer 25 in the projection in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, so that the protective layer 25 can separate the first insulation piece 24 and the first connecting portion 41 from each other in the thickness direction X of the wall portion.

[0197] In some embodiments, the protective layer 25 and the first electrode terminal 23a are separately disposed, that is, the protective layer 25 and the first electrode terminal 23a are two independent components. Along the thickness direction X of the wall portion, at least a portion of the protective layer 25 is disposed between the wall portion 211 and the lead-out member 231. In other words, the protective layer 25 is disposed on the side of the lead-out member 231 facing the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, so that the protective layer 25 and the lead-out member 231 are stacked in the thickness direction X of the wall portion.

[0198] Optionally, the protective layer 25 and the lead-out member 231 can be interconnected or unconnected. For example, in this embodiment, the protective layer 25 and the lead-out member 231 abut against each other along the first direction. Of course, in other embodiments, the protective layer 25 and the lead-out member 231 can also be bonded or welded together.

[0199] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the battery cell 20 may also include a pressure relief component 27, which is used to release the internal pressure of the battery cell 20 when the internal pressure or temperature of the battery cell 20 reaches a predetermined value.

[0200] For example, the pressure relief component 27 is disposed on the end cap 213 of the housing 21. Of course, in other embodiments, the pressure relief component 27 may also be disposed on the housing 212 of the housing 21. Similarly, the pressure relief component 27 and the housing 21 may be integrally formed or separately disposed. If the pressure relief component 27 and the housing 21 are separately disposed, the pressure relief component 27 may be connected to the housing 21 by welding or other means. Correspondingly, the pressure relief component 27 may be a component such as an explosion-proof valve, explosion-proof disc, gas valve, pressure relief valve or safety valve. If the pressure relief component 27 and the housing 21 are integrally formed, the pressure relief component 27 is a region on the housing 21 with a weak structure, such as a region on the housing 21 with a groove.

[0201] In the embodiment, the first electrode terminal 23a is electrically connected with the electrode assembly 22, and the first electrode terminal 23a is located at the lead-out piece 231 on the side of the wall portion 211 away from the electrode assembly 22 for welding connection with the busbar component 30 to realize input or output of the electric energy of the battery monomer 20 through the first electrode terminal 23a. The first insulating piece 24 is arranged between the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211, so that the first insulating piece 24 can insulate and separate the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211. However, since the projection of the first insulating piece 24 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion at least partially overlaps with the projection of the first connecting portion 41 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, by arranging the protective layer 25 between the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211, the melting point of the protective layer 25 is greater than the melting point of the lead-out piece 231, and at least part of the projection of the first connecting portion 41 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, which is formed by welding the lead-out piece 231 and the busbar component 30 and is located on the lead-out piece 231, is located in the protective layer 25. Therefore, the protective layer 25 can play a certain protection and separation role for the first insulating piece 24 when the lead-out piece 231 is welded and connected with the busbar component 30, so as to reduce the phenomenon that the first insulating piece 24 is burned or melted after the lead-out piece 231 is welded through. Therefore, it is not necessary to increase the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 to reduce the risk of the lead-out piece 231 being welded through, so that the thickness size of the lead-out piece 231 can be optimized while effectively reducing the risk of insulation failure between the lead-out piece 231 and the wall portion 211 after the first insulating piece 24 is damaged, thereby reducing the risk of short circuit of the first electrode terminal 23a and the shell 21 during use, and improving the use reliability of the battery monomer 20.

[0202] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 As shown, in the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the orthographic projection of the first connecting portion 41 is entirely located in the orthographic projection of the protective layer 25. That is, the welding mark formed on the lead-out piece 231 by welding the lead-out piece 231 and the busbar component 30 with each other is a structure in which the projection in the thickness direction X of the wall portion falls entirely into the protective layer 25, so that the protective layer 25 can completely separate the first insulating piece 24 and the first connecting portion 41 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion.

[0203] In this embodiment, by welding the lead-out member 231 to the busbar 30 and projecting the first connecting portion 41 formed on the lead-out member 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion into a structure in which the entire portion is located within the protective layer 25, the protective layer 25 can effectively separate the first connecting wall and the first insulating member 24 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion. This further reduces the phenomenon of burning or melting the first insulating member 24 after the lead-out member 231 is welded through, thereby further reducing the risk of insulation failure between the lead-out member 231 and the wall portion 211 after the first insulating member 24 is damaged. This further reduces the risk of short circuit between the first electrode terminal 23a and the outer casing 21 during use, which is beneficial to further improve the reliability of the battery cell 20.

[0204] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the melting point of the protective layer 25 is T1, and the melting point of the lead-out part 231 is T2, satisfying that T1-T2≥200℃.

[0205] For example, the melting point T1 of the protective layer 25 may be 200°C, 205°C, 210°C, 220°C, 230°C, 240°C, 250°C, 280°C, 300°C, 320°C, 350°C, 380°C, 400°C, 450°C, 500°C, 550°C, 600°C, 650°C, 700°C, 750°C, 800°C, 900°C, 1000°C, 1100°C, or 1200°C higher than the melting point T2 of the lead-in 231.

[0206] In this embodiment, by setting the melting point of the protective layer 25 to be 200 degrees Celsius or more higher than that of the lead-out member 231, the phenomenon of the protective layer 25 being melted when the lead-out member 231 is welded to the busbar component 30 is further alleviated. This can further improve the separation and barrier effect of the protective layer 25, which is beneficial to further improve the protection effect of the protective layer 25 on the first insulating member 24 when the lead-out member 231 is welded to the busbar component 30.

[0207] In some embodiments, the melting point of the protective layer 25 is T1, satisfying 1000℃≤T1≤3000℃.

[0208] For example, the melting point T1 of the protective layer 25 can be 1000℃, 1100℃, 1200℃, 1300℃, 1400℃, 1500℃, 1600℃, 1700℃, 1800℃, 1900℃, 2000℃, 2100℃, 2200℃, 2300℃, 2400℃, 2500℃, 2600℃, 2700℃, 2800℃, 2900℃, or 3000℃, etc.

[0209] In this embodiment, on the one hand, the melting point of the protective layer 25 is set to be greater than or equal to 1000 degrees Celsius so that the protective layer 25 has a better high-temperature resistance effect. This allows the protective layer 25 to play a better role in separating and protecting the first insulating component 24 when the lead-out component 231 is welded to the busbar component 30, thereby reducing the risk of the lead-out component 231 being burned or melted after being welded through. On the other hand, the melting point of the protective layer 25 is set to be less than or equal to 3000 degrees Celsius to alleviate the phenomenon of excessive high-temperature resistance of the protective layer 25. This reduces the difficulty of material selection and manufacturing of the protective layer 25, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the protective layer 25.

[0210] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the lead-out member 231 and the protective layer 25 are stacked along the thickness direction X of the wall portion. In the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the orthographic projection of the lead-out member 231 is located within the orthographic projection of the protective layer 25.

[0211] In the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction X of the wall, the orthographic projection of the lead-out member 231 is located within the orthographic projection of the protective layer 25. That is, the projection of the lead-out member 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall is located within the protective layer 25, so that the protective layer 25 is a structure that covers the lead-out member 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall.

[0212] In this embodiment, by setting the lead-out member 231 and the protective layer 25 to be stacked along the thickness direction X of the wall, and the projection of the lead-out member 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall is located within the protective layer 25, the protective layer 25 can effectively separate the lead-out member 231 and the first insulating member 24 in the thickness direction X of the wall, thereby further improving the protective effect of the protective layer 25 on the first insulating member 24 when the lead-out member 231 is welded to the busbar 30, and further reducing the risk of the lead-out member 231 being burned or the first insulating member 24 being melted after being welded through.

[0213] According to some embodiments of this application, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the maximum dimension of the protective layer 25 and the lead-out member 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall is D1, which satisfies that D1 < 3mm.

[0214] The maximum dimension of the protective layer 25 and the lead-out member 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall is D1, where D1 < 3mm. This means the maximum thickness of the protective layer 25 and the lead-out member 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall is less than 3mm, and therefore the space occupied by the protective layer 25 and the lead-out member 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall is less than 3mm. For example, see...Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 17, if the protective layer 25 and the lead-out piece 231 are arranged in a stacked manner along the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the sum of the thickness of the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion and the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion is less than 3 mm; for example, as shown in FIG. 18, if the protective layer 25 is arranged on the first surface 2312 of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the sum of the thickness of the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion and the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion is less than 3 mm. Figure 9 and Figure 10 , Figure 9 FIG. 19 is a partial cross-sectional view of a battery cell 20 according to some embodiments of the present application, Figure 10 FIG. 20 is a partial cross-sectional view of the battery cell 20 and the busbar component 30 after being connected to each other according to some embodiments of the present application. If, in the embodiment in which the recess 2313 is arranged on the first surface 2312 of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion and the portion of the protective layer 25 is arranged in the recess 2313, the sum of the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion and the size of the portion of the protective layer 25 protruding from the first surface 2312 is less than 3 mm, and if the entire protective layer 25 is arranged in the recess 2313 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, i.e., the protective layer 25 does not protrude from the first surface 2312 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion is less than 3 mm.

[0215] In the present embodiment, since the separation effect of the protective layer 25 can reduce the risk of the lead-out piece 231 being welded through without increasing the thickness of the lead-out piece 231, the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion can be optimized to reduce the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, and the maximum size of the entire protective layer 25 and the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion is less than 3 mm, which can save the space occupied by the first electrode terminal 23a and the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, optimize the overall size of the battery cell 20, and improve the energy density of the battery cell 20.

[0216] According to some embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 17, Figure 6 and Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown in FIG. 17, if the protective layer 25 and the lead-out piece 231 are arranged in a stacked manner along the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the sum of the thickness of the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion and the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion is less than 3 mm; for example, as shown in FIG. 18, if the protective layer 25 is arranged on the first surface 2312 of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the sum of the thickness of the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion and the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion is less than 3 mm.

[0217] Exemplarily, the maximum dimension D1 of the protective layer 25 and the lead-out piece 231 as a whole in the thickness direction X of the wall portion can be 1.8 mm, 1.85 mm, 1.9 mm, 1.95 mm, 2 mm, 2.05 mm, 2.1 mm, 2.15 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.25 mm, 2.3 mm, 2.35 mm, 2.4 mm, 2.45 mm, 2.5 mm, 2.55 mm, 2.6 mm, 2.65 mm, 2.7 mm, 2.75 mm, or 2.8 mm, etc.

[0218] In the present embodiment, on the one hand, setting the maximum dimension of the protective layer 25 and the lead-out piece 231 as a whole in the thickness direction X of the wall portion to be greater than or equal to 1.8 mm can facilitate setting a thicker protective layer 25 and lead-out piece 231, which is conducive to improving the separation and protection effects of the protective layer 25 on the first insulating piece 24 when the lead-out piece 231 is welded to the busbar component 30, and is conducive to improving the structural strength of the lead-out piece 231 to reduce the risk of breakage or deformation of the lead-out piece 231 during use. On the other hand, setting the maximum dimension of the protective layer 25 and the lead-out piece 231 as a whole in the thickness direction X of the wall portion to be less than or equal to 2.8 mm can further save the space occupied by the lead-out piece 231 and the protective layer 25 as a whole in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, so as to further optimize the overall size of the battery monomer 20, which is conducive to further improving the energy density of the battery monomer 20.

[0219] According to some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 , along the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the thickness of the protective layer 25 is D2, and the thickness of the lead-out piece 231 is D3, which satisfies 0.1≤D2 / D3≤0.25.

[0220] wherein D2 is the maximum dimension of the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, and D3 is the maximum dimension of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion.

[0221] It should be noted that, as shown in Figure 9 , if in the embodiment in which the lead-out piece 231 is provided with a recess 2313 facing the first surface 2312 of the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, and part of the protective layer 25 is contained in the recess 2313, then D3 is the maximum distance between the surface of the lead-out piece 231 on the side away from the wall portion 211 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion and the first surface 2312.

[0222] Exemplarily, the thickness D2 of the protective layer 25 can be 0.1 times, 0.11 times, 0.12 times, 0.13 times, 0.14 times, 0.15 times, 0.16 times, 0.17 times, 0.18 times, 0.19 times, 0.2 times, 0.21 times, 0.22 times, 0.23 times, 0.24 times, or 0.25 times, etc. of the thickness D3 of the lead-out piece 231.

[0223] In the present embodiment, on the one hand, the thickness of the protective layer 25 is set to be greater than or equal to 0.1 times of the thickness of the lead-out piece 231, so that the protective layer 25 has sufficient thickness to separate and block when the lead-out piece 231 is welded to the busbar component 30, so as to alleviate the phenomenon that the protective layer 25 is welded through, and is beneficial to improve the separation effect and protection effect of the protective layer 25 on the first insulating piece 24 when the lead-out piece 231 is welded to the busbar component 30, on the other hand, the thickness of the protective layer 25 is set to be less than or equal to 0.25 times of the thickness of the lead-out piece 231, so as to reduce the waste phenomenon caused by the excessive thickness of the protective layer 25, and is beneficial to reduce the manufacturing cost of the battery monomer 20, and can save the space occupied by the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall part, and is beneficial to optimize the overall size of the battery monomer 20.

[0224] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7 As shown in the figure, along the thickness direction X of the wall part, the thickness of the protective layer 25 is D2, which satisfies 0.3mm≤D2≤1mm, and further, 0.5mm≤D2≤0.8mm.

[0226] In the present embodiment, on the one hand, the thickness of the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall part is set to be greater than or equal to 0.3mm, which is beneficial to improve the structural strength of the protective layer 25, and makes the protective layer 25 have sufficient thickness to separate and block when the lead-out piece 231 is welded to the busbar component 30, so as to alleviate the phenomenon that the protective layer 25 is welded through, and is beneficial to improve the separation effect and protection effect of the protective layer 25 on the first insulating piece 24 when the lead-out piece 231 is welded to the busbar component 30, on the other hand, the thickness of the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall part is set to be less than or equal to 1mm, so as to reduce the waste phenomenon caused by the excessive thickness of the protective layer 25, and is beneficial to reduce the manufacturing cost of the battery monomer 20, and can save the space occupied by the protective layer 25 in the thickness direction X of the wall part, and is beneficial to optimize the overall size of the battery monomer 20.

[0229] In the present embodiment, on one hand, the thickness dimension of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion is set to be greater than or equal to 1mm, which is beneficial to improve the structural strength of the lead-out piece 231, so as to reduce the risk of deformation or fracture of the lead-out piece 231 in the process of use, and can make the lead-out piece 231 have sufficient penetration when being welded with the busbar component 30, which is beneficial to improve the connection reliability and stability between the lead-out piece 231 and the busbar component 30, on the other hand, the thickness dimension of the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion is set to be less than or equal to 2.5mm, so as to save the space occupied by the lead-out piece 231 in the thickness direction X of the wall portion, thereby being able to optimize the overall size of the battery monomer 20, which is beneficial to improve the energy density of the battery monomer 20.

[0230] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, along the thickness direction X of the wall portion, the lead-out piece 231 has a first surface 2312 facing the wall portion 211, and the first surface 2312 is provided with a recess 2313, and at least part of the protective layer 25 is accommodated in the recess 2313.
