[0039] The following reference Figures 1 to 3 This invention introduces the battery cover structure provided by this utility model.
[0040] This embodiment provides a battery cover structure that integrates an intelligent detection module 40, which can detect the pressure and / or temperature inside each individual battery cell in real time. This allows for timely control when abnormal temperature and / or pressure changes occur, thereby improving thermal runaway or thermal propagation and enhancing the safety and lifespan of the individual batteries with this battery cover structure installed.
[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2Specifically, the battery cover structure includes a cover body 10, a first insulating element 20, an intelligent detection module 40, and two terminals 30. The first insulating element 20 is disposed on one side of the cover body 10, and the two terminals 30 are spaced apart. Each terminal 30 passes through the first insulating element 20 and the cover body 10 and is insulated and sealed to the cover body 10. One of the two terminals 30 is a positive terminal, and the other is a negative terminal. The intelligent detection module 40 is insulatedly disposed on the side of the cover body 10 facing the first insulating element 20. The intelligent detection module 40 is used to detect the pressure and / or temperature inside the single cell. The two electrodes of the intelligent detection module 40 are electrically connected one-to-one to the two terminals 30.
[0042] In this embodiment, the battery cover structure integrates an intelligent detection module 40, enabling real-time monitoring of the internal pressure and / or temperature of the individual cells on which the cover structure is installed. This allows for timely control when abnormal temperature and / or pressure changes occur, mitigating thermal runaway or thermal propagation and improving the safety and lifespan of the individual cells. Furthermore, the intelligent detection module 40 is integrated into the cover body 10, resulting in a compact structure that does not occupy internal battery space, thus maximizing space utilization. Additionally, the two electrodes of the intelligent detection module 40 are electrically connected to the two terminals 30, enabling self-supply of power to the module and ensuring a continuous power supply. Since it is directly electrically connected to the individual cells, no other electrical connection structures are required, reducing the weight of the battery cover structure.
[0043] Specifically, when a single battery cell is charged through the positive and negative terminals, the current is also transferred through the positive and negative terminals to the electrodes and then enters the intelligent detection module 40 to supply power to it; when a single battery cell is discharged through the positive and negative terminals, the current is also transferred through the positive and negative terminals to the electrodes and then enters the intelligent detection module 40 to supply power to it; thus, the intelligent detection module 40 can be continuously powered.
[0044] Optionally, the first insulating member 20 can be either separately installed or integrally formed, both of which can achieve insulation of the cover plate body 10 and the inside of the battery. Exemplarily, in this embodiment, the first insulating member 20 is integrally formed, resulting in a simple structure.
[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In this embodiment, the intelligent detection module 40 includes an intelligent detection body 41 and two electrode connection lines 42. The intelligent detection body 41 can be electrically connected to an external control system to detect and transmit pressure signals and / or temperature signals within a single cell. One end of each of the two electrode connection lines 42 is electrically connected to the intelligent detection body 41, and the other end is provided with an electrode to be electrically connected to two terminals 30 respectively, thereby enabling power supply to the intelligent detection module 40 and ensuring its real-time detection and transmission of pressure signals and / or temperature signals within a single cell.
[0046] Optionally, the intelligent detection unit 41 is connected to the external control system via wireless communication. This enables real-time detection of the internal pressure and temperature of a single battery cell, eliminating the need for additional electrical connection paths and reducing space requirements. Of course, in other embodiments, the intelligent detection unit 41 can also be connected via other low-voltage communication lines to achieve real-time detection of the internal pressure and temperature of a single battery cell. The design can be adapted to actual space and needs, and no specific limitations are made here. Preferably, the detection signal transmission of the intelligent detection unit 41 can be achieved not only via wireless communication but also via low-voltage communication lines. This improves the reliability of its external connections; even if one connection fails, other communication methods remain, enhancing the reliability of the battery cover structure.
[0047] Specifically, the intelligent detection body 41 includes a pressure detection element for detecting and transmitting pressure signals within a single battery cell; and / or the intelligent detection body 41 includes a temperature detection element for detecting and transmitting temperature signals within a single battery cell. This enables the detection of pressure and / or temperature within a single battery cell. Preferably, the intelligent detection body 41 includes both a pressure detection element and a temperature detection element, which allows for more comprehensive information detection. It is understood that the intelligent detection body 41 may also include other detection elements, which are not specifically limited here.
[0048] Optionally, a pressure sensor can be used for the pressure detection element, and a temperature sensor can be used for the temperature detection element. This method has a simple structure, low cost, and high detection accuracy.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 3Furthermore, the cover plate body 10 has two electrode post holes 101, and the electrode posts 30 are correspondingly and insulatedly sealed through the electrode post holes 101. The cover plate body 10 has a mounting groove 102 on the side facing the first insulating member 20, and the intelligent detection module 40 is disposed in the mounting groove 102, which is connected to the electrode post holes 101. This allows the installation of the intelligent detection module 40 to only modify the structure of the cover plate body 10, without requiring changes to the first insulating member 20 or other structures, simplifying component structure modifications and eliminating the need to occupy internal space of the individual battery. Moreover, the connection between the mounting groove 102 and the electrode post holes 101 provides space for the installation of the electrode connection wires 42 of the intelligent detection module 40.
[0050] Specifically, the mounting slot 102 includes a first slot 1021 and two second slots 1022. The intelligent detection body 41 is disposed in the first slot 1021. One end of each of the two second slots 1022 is connected to the first slot 1021, and the other end is connected to the two electrode holes 101 respectively. The two electrode connecting lines 42 are disposed in the two second slots 1022 in a one-to-one correspondence, thereby realizing the integration of the cover plate body 10 with the intelligent detection module 40.
[0051] Furthermore, an insulating film is provided on the side of the cover plate body 10 facing the first insulating member 20. The insulating film covers at least the contact area between the cover plate body 10 and the intelligent detection module 40, thereby achieving insulation between the intelligent detection module 40 and the cover plate body 10, avoiding problems such as short circuits, and improving the reliability and safety of the battery cover plate structure.
[0052] Specifically, the insulating film and the cover plate body 10 are integrally stamped using coated aluminum material; or the cover plate body 10 is stamped and the insulating film is sprayed onto the cover plate body 10; both methods can achieve the setting of an insulating layer.
[0053] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the pole post 30 and the cover plate body 10 are riveted or glued together. More specifically, the pole post 30 passes through the first insulating member 20 and the cover plate body 10 and is fixed to the cover plate body 10 by forming a riveted part; or, it also includes a riveting block, the pole post 30 passes through the first insulating member 20, the cover plate body 10 and the riveting block and is riveted together with the riveting block to fix it to the cover plate body 10; or, the pole post 30 passes through the first insulating member 20 and the cover plate body 10 and is glued together with the cover plate body 10 by a glued part; or, the cover plate body 10 has a riveting flange 103, the pole post 30 passes through the first insulating member 20 and the cover plate body 10 and is riveted to the cover plate body 10 by the riveting flange 103 of the cover plate body 10. All of these methods can achieve a fixed connection between the pole post 30 and the cover plate body 10.
[0054] Furthermore, the battery cover structure also includes a sealing element 50, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the terminal post 30 to insulate and seal the terminal post 30 from the cover body 10. Specifically, the sealing element 50 is partially sandwiched between the outer periphery of the terminal post 30 and the hole wall of the terminal post hole 101 to achieve insulation and sealing performance between the terminal post 30 and the hole wall of the terminal post hole 101.
[0055] Furthermore, the battery cover structure also includes a second insulating member 60, which is sandwiched between the terminal post 30 and the cover body 10 on the side away from the first insulating member 20, to ensure insulation between the side of the terminal post 30 away from the battery interior and the cover body 10. Through the mutual connection of the sealing member 50, the first insulating member 20 and the second insulating member 60, insulation can be achieved between the various positions where the terminal post 30 contacts the cover body 10, thereby improving the reliability of the battery cover structure.
[0056] Furthermore, the battery cover structure also includes an explosion-proof valve 70, which is disposed on the cover body 10 for releasing pressure when the internal pressure of the battery is too high. Optionally, the battery cover structure also includes an explosion-proof film 71, which is affixed to the side of the explosion-proof valve 70 away from the inside of the battery to protect the explosion-proof valve 70 from damage when not in use.
[0057] Furthermore, the battery cover structure also includes an injection hole 80, which is formed on the cover body 10 for injecting electrolyte into the individual battery cells.
[0058] This embodiment also provides a single-cell battery, which includes the battery cover structure described in any of the above embodiments. By employing the battery cover structure, the single-cell battery can detect the pressure and / or temperature within each cell in real time, thereby enabling timely control when abnormal temperature and / or pressure changes occur, thus improving thermal runaway or thermal propagation and enhancing the safety and lifespan of the single-cell battery with the battery cover structure installed.
