Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of battery manufacturing technology, and in particular relates to a high-temperature resistant sealing ring for batteries. Background Technology

[0002] Battery sealing rings are critical components in battery modules, primarily used to prevent electrolyte leakage, isolate external environments (such as moisture and oxygen), and maintain internal pressure balance. Their performance directly affects the battery's safety, lifespan, and reliability. Common applications include cylindrical batteries (such as 18650 and 21700), prismatic batteries, pouch batteries, and special batteries (such as lithium thionyl chloride batteries). However, they still have the following drawbacks in practical use:

[0003] During the use of battery sealing rings, the sealing rings usually change with the operating temperature. When the battery is at a high temperature, the sealing ring expands. After the temperature drops, the sealing ring returns to its original shape. After long-term working cycles, the elasticity of the sealing ring is easily reduced. The elasticity has no compensation effect, which affects the battery's suitability for high-temperature operating environments.

[0004] Secondly, during battery sealing ring operation, if the battery overheats and catches fire, the flames will directly burn through the sealing ring and spread to the outside of the battery. Furthermore, some battery sealing rings are made of flammable materials, which can easily accelerate battery combustion and affect battery safety. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-temperature resistant sealing ring for batteries. By setting up a connecting component, a flexible sealing ring, a protective component, and a housing, it solves the problems that the battery sealing ring is not suitable for high-temperature environments and that the sealing ring can easily accelerate the combustion of the battery after an internal fire.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model relates to a high-temperature resistant sealing ring for batteries, comprising a connecting assembly, a flexible sealing ring, a protective assembly, and a receiving box. The connecting assembly includes an inner cylinder and a flexible outer cylinder. The flexible outer cylinder is disposed around the periphery of the inner cylinder. The protective assembly is fixed to the inner wall of the inner cylinder. The protective assembly includes a sealing sheet and a reinforcing ring. The reinforcing ring is fixed at the bottom edge of the sealing sheet. Both the sealing sheet and the reinforcing ring are fixed to the inner wall of the inner cylinder. The receiving box is fixed at the bottom center of the sealing sheet. The flexible sealing ring is fixed around the periphery of the flexible outer cylinder. During operation, the connecting assembly fixes the protective assembly in the inner cylinder, and the flexible sealing ring is fixed around the periphery of the flexible outer cylinder. Through the operation of the protective assembly, the inner cylinder is sealed, and the receiving box is placed in the inner cylinder. The flame-retardant dry powder is placed in the receiving box, and the interior of the battery is sealed by the flexible sealing ring.

[0008] Furthermore, the connecting assembly also includes an elastic ring. The diameter of the inner cylinder is smaller than the inner diameter of the flexible outer cylinder. The upper and lower parts of the inner cylinder and the flexible outer cylinder are both fixed with elastic rings. During operation, the elastic ring increases the squeezing effect of the flexible outer cylinder on the flexible sealing ring.

[0009] Furthermore, the flexible sealing ring is hollow, and an inner filling ring is fixed inside the flexible sealing ring. An outer ring is fixed around the periphery of the flexible sealing ring. The inner filling ring inside the flexible sealing ring increases elasticity and is pressed against the inner wall of the battery by the outer ring to seal the inside of the battery.

[0010] Furthermore, the protective assembly also includes a fixing plate one and a fixing plate two, which are fixed to each other. During operation, the fixing plate one and the fixing plate two are fixed in the inner cylinder to increase strength.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom end of the second fixing piece is fixed to the top end of the sealing piece, and both the first fixing piece and the second fixing piece are fixed to the inner wall of the inner cylinder, increasing the connection strength of the protective components.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottom of the container is open, a flexible membrane is fixed to the lower part of the inner wall of the container, and flame-retardant dry powder is placed inside the container at the top of the flexible membrane. During operation, the flame-retardant dry powder is sealed inside the container by the flexible membrane.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This invention solves the problem of insufficient adaptability of battery sealing rings to high-temperature environments by setting up a connecting component and a flexible sealing ring. The connecting component is inserted into the battery, ensuring that the receiving box is facing the energy storage component inside the battery. At this time, the outer ring of the flexible sealing ring is pressed against the inner wall of the battery, sealing the inside of the battery. During this process, the inner filling ring inside the flexible sealing ring increases the sealing strength, while the elastic ring between the inner cylinder and the flexible outer cylinder increases the compressive force and compensates for the sealing effect. This allows the battery sealing ring to compensate for the sealing compressive force and increases the adaptability of the sealing ring to high-temperature environments.

[0015] This invention solves the problem that the sealing ring can easily accelerate the combustion of a battery after an internal fire by setting up a connecting component, a protective component, and a housing box. When a fire breaks out inside the battery, the flame rises into the inner cylinder, burns the sealing sheet inside the inner cylinder, and damages the flexible membrane at the bottom of the housing box. The flame-retardant dry powder falls into the energy storage structure inside the battery, slowing down the combustion rate of the energy storage structure inside the battery and increasing the safety of battery use.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Specific Implementation Example 1

[0025] Please see Figure 1-3This utility model relates to a high-temperature resistant sealing ring for batteries, comprising a connecting component 1, a flexible sealing ring 2, a protective component 3, and a receiving box 4. The connecting component 1 includes an inner cylinder 101 and a flexible outer cylinder 103. The flexible outer cylinder 103 is disposed around the periphery of the inner cylinder 101, and the protective component 3 is fixed within the inner cylinder 101. The flexible outer cylinder 103 is used to connect the flexible sealing ring 2. The protective component 3 is fixed on the inner wall of the inner cylinder 101, and the protective component 3 seals the interior of the inner cylinder 101. The protective component 3 includes a sealing sheet 303 and a reinforcing ring 304. A reinforcing ring 304 is fixed at the bottom edge of the inner cylinder 101. Both the sealing sheet 303 and the reinforcing ring 304 are fixed to the inner wall of the inner cylinder 101. The sealing sheet 303 seals the inner cylinder 101. The reinforcing ring 304 increases the fixing strength between the sealing sheet 303 and the inner cylinder 101. A receiving box 4 is fixed at the bottom center of the sealing sheet 303. The receiving box 4 contains the flame-retardant dry powder 401. If a fire breaks out inside the battery, the flame-retardant dry powder 401 falls into the battery and slows down the spread of the flame. A flexible sealing ring 2 is fixed around the flexible outer cylinder 103. The flexible sealing ring 2 seals the gap between the flexible outer cylinder 103 and the battery.

[0026] Specifically, the connecting assembly 1 also includes an elastic ring 102. The diameter of the inner cylinder 101 is smaller than the inner diameter of the flexible outer cylinder 103. The upper and lower parts of the inner cylinder 101 and the flexible outer cylinder 103 are both fixed with elastic rings 102. The elastic rings 102 included in the connecting assembly 1 connect the inner cylinder 101 and the flexible outer cylinder 103 together, and compensate for the deformation of the flexible outer cylinder 103 and the flexible sealing ring 2 through the elastic rings 102, thereby increasing the sealing effect.

[0027] Furthermore, the flexible sealing ring 2 is hollow, and an inner filling ring 201 is fixed inside the flexible sealing ring 2. An outer ring 202 is fixed around the periphery of the flexible sealing ring 2. The inner filling ring 201 inside the flexible sealing ring 2 increases the elasticity of the flexible sealing ring 2, and the outer ring 202 contacts the battery and is squeezed against the inside of the battery to perform the sealing work.

[0028] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: During operation, the connecting component 1 is inserted into the battery, and the receiving box 4 is positioned facing the energy storage component inside the battery. At this time, the outer ring 202 on the periphery of the flexible sealing ring 2 is pressed against the inner wall of the battery to seal the inside of the battery. During this process, the inner filling ring 201 inside the flexible sealing ring 2 increases the sealing strength, and at the same time, the elastic ring 102 between the inner cylinder 101 and the flexible outer cylinder 103 increases the compressive force and compensates for the sealing effect. Specific Implementation Example 2

[0029] Please see Figure 1 , 24, 5. Based on the first specific embodiment, the protection component 3 also includes a first fixing piece 301 and a second fixing piece 302. The first fixing piece 301 and the second fixing piece 302 are fixed to each other. The first fixing piece 301 and the second fixing piece 302 of the protection component 3 are fixed on the inner cylinder 101 and fixed to each other to protect the sealing piece 303.

[0030] Specifically, the bottom end of the fixing piece 302 is fixed to the top end of the sealing piece 303. Both the fixing piece 301 and the fixing piece 302 are fixed to the inner wall of the inner cylinder 101, so that the inner cylinder 101 is sealed during operation, preventing the sealing piece 303 from being damaged by the pressure inside the battery during operation.

[0031] Furthermore, the bottom of the receiving box 4 is open, and a flexible membrane 402 is fixed to the lower part of the inner wall of the receiving box 4. Flame retardant dry powder 401 is disposed inside the receiving box 4 at the top of the flexible membrane 402. The flame retardant dry powder 401 is contained in the receiving box 4 and sealed inside the receiving box 4 by the flexible membrane 402. When the battery catches fire, the flexible membrane 402 is broken, and the flame retardant dry powder 401 falls into the battery, slowing down the burning rate of the battery's internal structure.

[0032] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: During operation, when a fire occurs inside the battery, the flame rises into the inner cylinder 101, burns the sealing sheet 303 inside the inner cylinder 101, and destroys the flexible membrane 402 in the lower part of the container 4. The flame-retardant dry powder 401 falls into the energy storage structure inside the battery, slowing down the burning rate of the energy storage structure inside the battery and increasing the safety of battery use.
