[0002] Lithium ion batteries are secondary batteries that have characteristics such as high energy density, high specific power, good cycle characteristics, no memory effect, and no pollution, and are currently widely used in fields such as mobile phones, mobile notebook computers, hybrid cars, electric cars, and solar power generation systems. Lithium ion batteries usually consist of an electrode body and a battery case. The electrode body is disposed in the battery case.

[0003] The positive and negative electrode sheets typically include a tab, a current collector, and a coating attached to the current collector. The portion of the current collector where the coating layer is not attached forms a blank area. The tab is welded to the blank area. The current collector with the exposed blank area typically has a burr. The burr can easily penetrate the separator and come into contact with the coating of the other pole piece, causing a short circuit in the battery.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0049] Various embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that the relative arrangement of the components and steps, the formulas and numerical values ​​described in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present application unless specifically stated otherwise.

[0050] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way limiting of the invention, its application, or uses.

[0051] Techniques and devices known to those skilled in the art may not have been discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques and devices should be considered part of the specification.

[0052] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be construed as merely illustrative and not limiting, and thus other example embodiments may have different values.

[0053] It should be noted that in the following drawings, the same reference symbols and letters indicate the same items, so that when an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further described in the following drawings.

[0054] (First aspect) According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an electrode assembly is provided. As shown in FIG. 1, the electrode assembly includes a negative electrode sheet 12, a negative electrode tab 104, and a positive electrode sheet 11. The negative electrode sheet 12 includes a negative electrode current collector 102 and a negative electrode active material 106 attached to the negative electrode current collector 102. A negative electrode tab groove 111 is opened in the negative electrode active material 106. The negative electrode tab 104 is provided in the negative electrode tab groove 111. The positive electrode sheet 11 includes a positive electrode current collector 101 and a positive electrode active material 105 attached to the positive electrode current collector 101. The positive electrode active material 105 is provided with a first groove 112. The first groove 112 is provided opposite to the negative electrode tab groove 111. The projection of the first groove 112 on the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the negative electrode tab groove 111.

[0055] The electrode assembly further includes a separator 107. The separator 107 is located between the positive electrode sheet 11 and the negative electrode sheet 12.

[0056] The electrode assembly has a wound structure or a laminated structure. The electrode assembly includes a negative electrode sheet 12 and a positive electrode sheet 11.

[0057] The negative electrode sheet 12 includes a negative electrode current collector 102 and a negative electrode active material 106 attached to the negative electrode current collector 102. The negative electrode current collector 102 may be a copper foil, and of course, may be other suitable materials, which are not limited here and can be selected by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0058] The negative electrode active material 106 may be a graphite material, and of course may be other suitable materials, which are not limited here and can be selected by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0059] The negative electrode active material 106 is provided with a negative electrode tab groove 111. At the same time, the negative electrode tab 104 is provided in the negative electrode tab groove 111. The negative electrode tab 104 is provided in the negative electrode tab groove 111 by welding, and of course, other suitable connection methods may be used, which are not limited here and can be selected by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0060] The positive electrode sheet 11 includes a positive electrode current collector 101 and a positive electrode active material 105 attached to the positive electrode current collector 101. The positive electrode current collector 101 may be an aluminum foil, or of course, may be other suitable materials, which are not limited here and can be selected by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0061] The positive electrode active material 105 may be a lithium cobalt oxide material, or of course, may be other suitable materials, which are not limited here and can be selected by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0062] A first groove 112 is formed in the positive electrode active material 105 , the first groove 112 is disposed opposite the negative electrode tab groove 111 , and the projection of the first groove 112 onto the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the negative electrode tab groove 111 .

[0063] Taking a lithium ion battery as an example, in the process of charging and discharging, lithium ions are repeatedly absorbed and released between the positive and negative electrode sheets 12. During charging, lithium ions are released from the positive electrode active material 105 of the positive electrode sheet 11 and are absorbed into the negative electrode active material 106 of the negative electrode sheet 12 through the electrolyte and separator 107, and at this time the negative electrode sheet 12 is in a lithium-rich state. Conversely, during discharging, lithium ions in the negative electrode active material 106 are released from the negative electrode sheet 12 and are absorbed into the positive electrode active material 105 of the positive electrode sheet 11 through the electrolyte and separator 107 so as to form a potential difference between the positive and negative electrode sheets 12.

[0064] During processing, burrs are likely to be formed on the edges of the negative electrode tab groove 111 and / or the edges of the first recessed groove 112. If the burrs come into contact with the negative electrode active material 106 after piercing the separator 107, the electrode body will generate intense heat and even explode.

[0065] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 , the first groove 112 formed in the positive electrode active material 105 is disposed opposite the position of the negative electrode tab groove 111 formed in the negative electrode active material 106, and the projection of the first groove 112 on the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the negative electrode tab groove 111.

[0066] Furthermore, the projection of the first groove 112 onto the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the groove of the negative electrode tab 104, i.e., the negative electrode tab groove 111 can completely include the first groove 112, and the size of the negative electrode tab groove 111 is larger than the size of the first groove 112.

[0067] After the burrs, dendrites, and other substances in the negative electrode tab groove 111 and the first groove 112 break through the separator 107, the size of the negative electrode tab groove 111 is larger than the size of the first groove 112 and can completely include the first groove 112. Therefore, even if the burrs, dendrites, and other substances break through the separator 107 and reach the other side of the separator 107, there is a small probability that they will come into contact with the negative electrode active material 106 in the negative electrode sheet 12. This installation method significantly reduces the risk of the electrode body generating intense heat and even exploding. The use safety of the electrode body is significantly improved.

[0068] Although a phenomenon occurs in which burrs and / or dendrites come into contact with the negative electrode tab groove 111, the amount of heat generated by this contact is small, and therefore the safety risk of the electrode assembly is small.

[0069] Forming the first groove 112 in the positive electrode sheet 11 and forming the negative electrode tab groove 111 in the negative electrode sheet 12 may be performed by a method such as laser cleaning, intermittent coating, or adhesive peeling, and of course, is not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may select a groove forming method according to actual needs.

[0070] In one example, a second groove 113 is further formed in the negative electrode active material 106. The second grooves 113 are formed on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 102 symmetrically to the negative electrode tab groove 111.

[0071] The positive electrode active material 105 has a third groove 114 formed therein. The third groove 114 is formed opposite the second groove 113. The projection of the third groove 114 onto the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the second groove 113.

[0072] The negative electrode sheet 12 includes, for example, a negative electrode current collector 102 and a negative electrode active material attached to the negative electrode current collector 102. A negative electrode active material 106 is attached to both sides of the negative electrode current collector 102. A negative electrode tab groove 111 for attaching a negative electrode tab 104 is provided on a first side of the negative electrode current collector 102. A second groove 113 is provided on a second side of the negative electrode current collector 102. The second groove 113 and the negative electrode tab groove 111 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 102. In this way, the amount of the negative electrode active material 106 removed on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 102 can be made equal, and the second groove 113 and the negative electrode tab groove 111 formed respectively can be made smoother, which avoids the occurrence of more burrs and simplifies the process. At the same time, it ensures that a sufficient amount of negative active material 106 is still retained on the negative electrode sheet 12 so that the electrode assembly has enough active material to react and ensure the energy density of the battery formed by later winding of the electrode assembly.

[0073] The positive electrode active material 105 has a third groove 114 formed therein. The third groove 114 is formed opposite the second groove 113. A projection of the third groove 114 in the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the second groove 113.

[0074] The third groove 114 formed in the positive electrode active material 105 and the second groove 113 formed in the negative electrode active material 106 are arranged opposite each other, and the projection of the third groove 114 onto the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the second groove 113.

[0075] Furthermore, the projection of the third groove 114 onto the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the second groove 113, that is, the second groove 113 can completely include the third groove 114, and the size of the second groove 113 is larger than the size of the third groove 114.

[0076] After the burrs, dendrites, and other substances on the second groove 113 and the third groove 114 break through the separator 107, the size of the second groove 113 is larger than the size of the third groove 114 and can completely include the third groove 114. Therefore, even if the burrs, dendrites, and other substances break through the separator 107 and reach the other side of the separator 107, there is a small probability that they will come into contact with the negative electrode active material 106 on the negative electrode sheet 12. This installation method significantly reduces the risk of the electrode body generating intense heat and even exploding. The use safety of the electrode body is significantly improved.

[0077] Although a phenomenon occurs in which burrs and / or dendrites come into contact with the negative electrode tab groove 111, the amount of heat generated by this contact is small, and therefore the safety risk of the electrode assembly is small.

[0078] In one example, the electrode body further includes a first insulating adhesive layer 121, a second insulating adhesive layer 122, a third insulating adhesive layer 123, and a fourth insulating adhesive layer 124. The first insulating adhesive layer 121 is adhered to the groove bottom of the negative electrode tab groove 111 and extends to the negative electrode active material 106 on the side of the negative electrode tab groove 111. The negative electrode tab groove includes a left groove wall of the negative electrode tab groove and a right groove wall of the negative electrode tab groove. The first insulating adhesive layer 121 includes a first left insulating adhesive layer provided on the left groove wall of the negative electrode tab groove and a first right insulating adhesive layer provided on the right groove wall of the negative electrode tab groove. There is a gap between the first left insulating adhesive layer and the first right insulating adhesive layer at opposing positions at the groove bottom of the negative electrode tab groove. The negative electrode tab is provided between the first left insulating adhesive layer and the first right insulating adhesive layer. Alternatively, the first insulating adhesive layer 121 is adhered to the top surface of the negative electrode tab and extends to the negative electrode active material 106 on the side of the negative electrode tab groove.

[0079] The second insulating adhesive layer 122 is adhered to the bottom of the first groove 112 and extends to the positive electrode active material 105 on the side of the first groove 112. The third insulating adhesive layer 123 is adhered to the bottom of the second groove 113 and extends to the negative electrode active material 106 on the side of the second groove 113. The fourth insulating adhesive layer 124 is adhered to the bottom of the third groove 114 and extends to the positive electrode active material 105 on the side of the third groove 114.

[0080] In this example, an insulating adhesive layer is provided in each of the negative electrode tab groove 111, the first groove 112, the second groove 113, and the third groove 114, and the insulating adhesive layer completely covers the grooves and extends to the active material on the sides of the grooves. Since neither the positive electrode current collector 101 nor the negative electrode current collector 102 is a porous material, the electrolyte infiltrates and covers the edge adhesive layer on the active material from the porous active material (e.g., the positive electrode active material 105, the negative electrode active material 106). Even if the adhesiveness of the insulating adhesive layer covering the active material is weak or lost, The portions of the insulating adhesive layer that still cover the grooves (e.g., the negative electrode tab groove 111, the first groove 112, the second groove 113, and the third groove 114) are tightly bonded to the corresponding current collectors (e.g., the positive electrode current collector 101, the negative electrode current collector 102), so that the electrolyte cannot penetrate into the insulating adhesive layer and the radicals of the electrolyte cannot infiltrate into the insulating adhesive layer, and the insulating adhesive properties located in the grooves (e.g., the negative electrode tab groove 111, the first groove 112, the second groove 113, and the third groove 114) can still maintain good adhesion.

[0081] In addition, the grooves (e.g., the negative electrode tab groove 111, the first groove 112, the second groove 113, and the third groove 114) and the insulating adhesive layers covering the active materials (e.g., the positive electrode active material 105, the negative electrode active material 106) are integrally connected. As a result, the insulating adhesive layers covering the active materials (e.g., the first insulating adhesive layer 121, the second insulating adhesive layer 122, the third insulating adhesive layer 123, and the fourth insulating adhesive layer 124) do not shift from their initial bonding positions. Therefore, the insulating adhesive layers covering the active materials (e.g., the first insulating adhesive layer 121, the second insulating adhesive layer 122, the third insulating adhesive layer 123, and the fourth insulating adhesive layer 124) still maintain their initial insulating function, effectively reducing the risk of lithium precipitation, and improving the safety of the battery formed by winding the electrode body.

[0082] In one example, the first groove 112 is a through groove. The first groove 112 includes a first left groove wall and a first right groove wall. The second insulating adhesive layer 122 includes a second left insulating adhesive layer provided on the first left groove wall and a second right insulating adhesive layer provided on the first right groove wall.

[0083] The second left insulating adhesive layer and the second right insulating adhesive layer are positioned at opposing positions in the first groove 112 and overlap at the bottom of the groove, or the second left insulating adhesive layer and the second right insulating adhesive layer are positioned apart at opposing positions at the bottom of the first groove 112.

[0084] In one example, the third groove 114 is a through groove. The third groove 114 includes a third left groove wall and a third right groove wall. The fourth insulating adhesive layer 124 includes a fourth left insulating adhesive layer 1241 provided on the third left groove wall and a fourth right insulating adhesive layer 1242 provided on the third right groove wall.

[0085] The fourth left insulating adhesive layer 1241 and the fourth right insulating adhesive layer 1242 are arranged in opposing positions in the third groove 114 and overlap at the bottom of the groove, or the fourth left insulating adhesive layer 1241 and the fourth right insulating adhesive layer 1242 are arranged apart in opposing positions at the bottom of the third groove 114.

[0086] For example, the second left insulating adhesive layer and the second right insulating adhesive layer are arranged in opposing positions in the first groove 112 and overlap at the bottom of the groove, and the fourth left insulating adhesive layer 1241 and the fourth right insulating adhesive layer 1242 are arranged in opposing positions in the third groove 114 and overlap at the bottom of the groove.

[0087] In one example, the second left insulating adhesive layer and the second right insulating adhesive layer are positioned at opposing positions in the first groove 112 and overlap at the bottom of the groove, and the fourth left insulating adhesive layer 1241 and the fourth right insulating adhesive layer 1242 are positioned apart at opposing positions at the bottom of the third groove 114.

[0088] In one example, the fourth left insulating adhesive layer 1241 and the fourth right insulating adhesive layer 1242 are spaced apart at opposing positions at the bottom of the third groove 114, and the fourth left insulating adhesive layer 1241 and the fourth right insulating adhesive layer 1242 are arranged at opposing positions in the third groove 114 and overlap at the bottom of the groove.

[0089] In one example, the second left insulating adhesive layer and the second right insulating adhesive layer are spaced apart at opposing positions at the bottom of the first groove 112, and the fourth left insulating adhesive layer 1241 and the fourth right insulating adhesive layer 1242 are spaced apart at opposing positions at the bottom of the third groove 114.

[0090] In addition, if the insulating adhesive layers on the left and right sides of the groove are laminated, the depression caused by the removal of the active material can be filled more effectively, the flatness of the electrode body can be improved, which is advantageous for pressure formation and reduces bending deformation of the battery. Furthermore, problems such as short circuits caused by bending deformation of the cell can be avoided, and the safety of the battery formed by winding the cell can be improved.

[0091] In addition, the left and right insulating adhesive layers are stacked and installed, and thus, it is possible to prevent the electrolyte from penetrating the insulating adhesive layers covering the active materials from the porous active materials (e.g., the positive electrode active material 105 and the negative electrode active material 106) and thus weakening or losing the adhesiveness of the insulating adhesive layers covering the active materials. However, the portions of the insulating adhesive layers still covering the grooves (e.g., the negative electrode tab groove 111, the first groove 112, the second groove 113, and the third groove 114) are tightly bonded to the corresponding current collectors (e.g., the positive electrode current collector 101, the negative electrode current collector 102), so that the electrolyte cannot penetrate the insulating adhesive layers and the free radicals of the electrolyte cannot infiltrate into the insulating adhesive layers. As a result, the insulating adhesive layers located in the grooves (e.g., the negative electrode tab groove 111, the first groove 112, the second groove 113, and the third groove 114) can still maintain good adhesiveness.

[0092] If either one of the left and right insulating adhesive layers covering the grooves is infiltrated with the electrolyte, causing the adhesive strength of the insulating adhesive layer to weaken or to be lost, and if the adhesive application mechanism of one of them becomes abnormal and causes the adhesive cloth to be leaked, the remaining insulating adhesive layer on the other side can still maintain good adhesive performance, so as to ensure the initial effective insulating effect and reduce the risk of lithium precipitation.

[0093] When the adhesive strength of the insulating adhesive layer covering the active material is reduced or lost due to the infiltration of the electrolyte into both the left and right insulating adhesive layers covering the grooves, the left and right insulating adhesive layers are installed in a stacked manner, so that the stacked insulating adhesive layers and the grooves are tightly adhered to each other and good insulating effect can still be ensured; thus, the two-layer installation of the stacked insulating adhesive layers further improves the insulating effect and greatly improves the safety of use of the battery formed by winding the electrode body.

[0094] Furthermore, if there is a gap between the left and right insulating adhesive layers at opposing positions at the bottom of the groove, it is possible to save on the amount of insulating adhesive layer used, provided that the insulating effect is guaranteed, and the thickness of the electrode body is also reduced.

[0095] In addition, the provision of the insulating adhesive layer can also serve as a heat insulator, making it possible to prevent contact between the fallen positive electrode active material 105 and the negative electrode current collector 102, or between the fallen negative electrode active material 106 and the positive electrode current collector 101, thereby further reducing the risk of heat generation and explosion of the electrode body.

[0096] In one example, the electrode body further includes a positive electrode tab 103. The positive electrode active material 105 is provided with a positive electrode tab groove 115, the positive electrode tab 103 is provided in the positive electrode tab groove 115, and the negative electrode active material 106 is provided with a fourth groove 116, the fourth groove 116 is provided opposite the positive electrode tab groove 115, and the projection of the positive electrode tab groove 115 onto the negative electrode sheet is located within the fourth groove 116.

[0097] In one example, the positive active material 105 further includes a fifth groove 117, which is disposed on both sides of the positive current collector 101 symmetrically with the positive tab groove 115. The negative active material 106 includes a sixth groove 118, which is disposed opposite the fifth groove 117, and the projection of the fifth groove 117 onto the negative sheet 12 is located within the sixth groove 118.

[0098] In one example, the electrode body further includes a fifth insulating adhesive layer 125, a sixth insulating adhesive layer 126, a seventh insulating adhesive layer 127, and an eighth insulating adhesive layer 128. The fifth insulating adhesive layer 125 is attached to the bottom of the positive electrode tab groove 115 and extends to the positive electrode active material 105 on the side of the positive electrode tab groove 115, or the fifth insulating adhesive layer is attached to the top surface of the positive electrode tab and extends to the positive electrode active material on the side of the positive electrode tab groove. The sixth insulating adhesive layer 126 is attached to the bottom of the fourth groove 116 and extends to the negative electrode active material 106 on the side of the fourth groove 116. The seventh insulating adhesive layer 127 is attached to the bottom of the fifth groove 117 and extends to the positive electrode active material 105 on the side of the fifth groove 117. The eighth insulating adhesive layer 128 is adhered to the bottom of the sixth groove 118 and extends to the negative electrode active material 106 on the side of the sixth groove 118 .

[0099] In one example, the fourth groove 116 is a through groove including a fourth left groove wall and a fourth right groove wall, and the sixth insulating adhesive layer 126 includes a sixth left insulating adhesive layer provided on the fourth left groove wall and a sixth right insulating adhesive layer provided on the fourth right groove wall. The sixth left insulating adhesive layer and the sixth right insulating adhesive layer are disposed at opposing positions in the fourth groove 116 and overlap at the groove bottom, or the sixth left insulating adhesive layer and the sixth right insulating adhesive layer are disposed apart from each other at opposing positions at the groove bottom of the fourth groove 116. Alternatively, the sixth groove 118 is a through groove including a sixth left groove wall and a sixth right groove wall, and the eighth insulating adhesive layer 128 includes an eighth left insulating adhesive layer provided on the sixth left groove wall and an eighth right insulating adhesive layer provided on the sixth right groove wall. The eighth left insulating adhesive layer and the eighth right insulating adhesive layer are arranged in opposing positions in the sixth groove 118 and overlap at the bottom of the groove, or the eighth left insulating adhesive layer and the eighth right insulating adhesive layer are arranged apart in opposing positions at the bottom of the sixth groove 118.

[0100] In one example, the central axes of the negative electrode tab groove 111, the first groove 112, the second groove 113, and the third groove 114 are on the same straight line.

[0101] In one example, the central axes of the positive electrode tab groove 115, the fourth groove 116, the fifth groove 117, and the sixth groove 118 are on the same straight line.

[0102] According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, an electrode assembly is provided. As shown in FIG. 2-FIG. 3, the electrode assembly includes a positive electrode sheet 11, a positive electrode tab 103, and a negative electrode sheet 12. The positive electrode sheet 11 includes a positive electrode current collector 101 and a positive electrode active material 105 attached to the positive electrode current collector 101. A positive electrode tab groove 115 is opened in the positive electrode active material 105. The positive electrode tab 103 is provided in the positive electrode tab groove 115. The negative electrode sheet 12 includes a negative electrode current collector 102 and a negative electrode active material 106 attached to the negative electrode current collector 102. The negative electrode active material 106 is provided with a fourth groove 116. The fourth groove 116 is provided opposite to the positive electrode tab groove 115. Moreover, the projection of the positive electrode tab groove 115 onto the negative electrode sheet is located within the fourth groove 116.

[0103] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the fourth groove 116 opened in the negative active material 106 is located opposite the position of the positive electrode tab groove 115 opened in the positive electrode active material 105, and the projection of the positive electrode tab groove 115 onto the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the fourth groove 116.

[0104] In addition, the projection of the positive electrode tab groove 115 onto the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the fourth groove 116, that is, the fourth groove 116 can completely include the positive electrode tab groove 115, and the size of the fourth groove 116 is larger than the size of the positive electrode tab groove 115.

[0105] After the burrs, dendrites, and other materials in the positive electrode tab groove 115 and the fourth groove 116 break through the separator 107, the size of the fourth groove 116 is larger than the size of the positive electrode tab groove 115 and can completely contain the positive electrode tab groove 115. Therefore, even if the burrs, dendrites, and other materials break through the separator 107 and reach the other side of the separator 107, there is a low probability that they will come into contact with the negative electrode active material 106 in the negative electrode sheet 12. This installation method significantly reduces the risk of the electrode body generating intense heat and even exploding. The use safety of the electrode body is significantly improved.

[0106] Although a phenomenon occurs in which burrs and / or dendrites come into contact with the negative electrode tab groove 111, the amount of heat generated by this contact is small, and therefore the safety risk of the electrode assembly is small.

[0107] The formation of the fourth groove 116 in the negative electrode sheet 12 and the formation of the positive electrode tab groove 115 in the positive electrode sheet 11 may be performed by laser cleaning, intermittent coating, or adhesive peeling, and of course, is not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art may select a groove forming method according to actual needs.

[0108] In one example, the positive electrode active material 105 further includes a fifth groove 117. The fifth groove 117 is provided on both sides of the positive electrode current collector 101 symmetrically with the positive electrode tab groove 115.

[0109] The negative electrode active material 106 has a sixth groove 118 formed therein. The sixth groove 118 is formed opposite the fifth groove 117. The projection of the fifth groove 117 onto the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the sixth groove 118.

[0110] The positive electrode sheet 11 includes, for example, a positive electrode collector 101 and a positive electrode active material attached to the positive electrode collector 101. A positive electrode active material 105 is attached to both sides of the positive electrode collector 101. A positive electrode tab groove 115 for attaching a positive electrode tab 103 is provided on a first side of the positive electrode collector 101. A fifth groove 117 is formed on a second side of the positive electrode collector 101. The fifth groove 117 and the positive electrode tab groove 115 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the positive electrode collector 101. In this way, the amount of the positive electrode active material 105 removed on both sides of the positive electrode collector 101 can be made equal, and the fifth groove 117 and the positive electrode tab groove 115 formed respectively can be made smoother, which avoids the occurrence of more burrs and simplifies the process. At the same time, it ensures that a sufficient amount of positive active material 105 is still retained in the positive electrode sheet 11 so that there is enough active material in the electrode assembly to react and ensure the energy density of the battery formed by later winding of the electrode assembly.

[0111] The negative electrode active material 106 has a sixth groove 118 formed therein. The sixth groove 118 is formed opposite the fifth groove 117. The projection of the fifth groove 117 onto the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the sixth groove 118.

[0112] The sixth groove 118 formed in the negative active material 106 and the fifth groove 117 formed in the positive active material 105 are disposed opposite each other, and the projection of the fifth groove 117 on the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the sixth groove 118.

[0113] In addition, the projection of the fifth groove 117 on the negative electrode sheet 12 is located within the sixth groove 118, that is, the sixth groove 118 can completely include the fifth groove 117, and the size of the sixth groove 118 is larger than the size of the fifth groove 117.

[0114] After the burrs, dendrites, and other substances on the fifth groove 117 and the sixth groove 118 break through the separator 107, the sixth groove 118 is larger in size than the fifth groove 117 and can completely contain the fifth groove 117. Therefore, even if the burrs, dendrites, and other substances break through the separator 107 and reach the other side of the separator 107, there is a low probability that they will come into contact with the negative electrode active material 106 on the negative electrode sheet 12. This installation method significantly reduces the risk of the electrode body generating intense heat and even exploding. The use safety of the electrode body is significantly improved.

[0115] Although a phenomenon occurs in which burrs and / or dendrites come into contact with the negative electrode tab groove 111, the amount of heat generated by this contact is small, and therefore the safety risk of the electrode assembly is small.

[0116] In one example, the electrode body further includes a fifth insulating adhesive layer 125, a sixth insulating adhesive layer 126, a seventh insulating adhesive layer 127, and an eighth insulating adhesive layer 128. The fifth insulating adhesive layer 125 is adhered to the bottom of the positive tab groove 115 and extends to the positive active material 105 on the side of the positive tab groove 115. Alternatively, the fifth insulating adhesive layer 125 is adhered to the top surface of the positive tab and extends to the positive active material 105 on the side of the positive tab groove 115.

[0117] The sixth insulating adhesive layer 126 is attached to the bottom of the fourth groove 116 and extends to the negative electrode active material 106 on the side of the fourth groove 116. The seventh insulating adhesive layer 127 is attached to the bottom of the fifth groove 117 and extends to the positive electrode active material 105 on the side of the fifth groove 117. The eighth insulating adhesive layer 128 is attached to the bottom of the sixth groove 118 and extends to the negative electrode active material 106 on the side of the sixth groove 118.

[0118] In this example, an insulating adhesive layer is provided in each of the positive electrode tab groove 115, the fourth groove 116, the fifth groove 117, and the sixth groove 118, and the insulating adhesive layer completely covers the grooves and extends to the active material on the side of the grooves. Since neither the positive electrode current collector 101 nor the negative electrode current collector 102 is a porous material, even if the electrolyte penetrates from the porous active material (e.g., the positive electrode active material 105, the negative electrode active material 106) into the edge adhesive layer covering the active material and the adhesiveness of the insulating adhesive layer covering the active material becomes weak or lost, The portions of the insulating adhesive layer that still cover the grooves (e.g., the positive electrode tab groove 115, the fourth groove 116, the fifth groove 117, and the sixth groove 118) are tightly bonded to the corresponding current collectors (e.g., the positive electrode current collector 101, the negative electrode current collector 102), so that the electrolyte cannot penetrate into the insulating adhesive layer and the radicals of the electrolyte cannot infiltrate into the insulating adhesive layer, and the insulating adhesive layer located in the grooves (e.g., the positive electrode tab groove 115, the fourth groove 116, the fifth groove 117, and the sixth groove 118) can still maintain good adhesion.

[0119] In addition, the grooves (e.g., the positive electrode tab groove 115, the fourth groove 116, the fifth groove 117, and the sixth groove 118) and the insulating adhesive layer covering the active material (e.g., the positive electrode active material 105, the negative electrode active material 106) are integrally connected. As a result, the insulating adhesive layer covering the active material (e.g., the fifth insulating adhesive layer 125, the sixth insulating adhesive layer 126, the seventh insulating adhesive layer 127, and the eighth insulating adhesive layer 128) does not shift from the initial bonding position. Therefore, the insulating adhesive layer covering the active material (e.g., the fifth insulating adhesive layer 125, the sixth insulating adhesive layer 126, the seventh insulating adhesive layer 127, and the eighth insulating adhesive layer 128) still maintains its initial insulating function, effectively reducing the risk of lithium precipitation, and improving the use safety of the battery formed by winding the electrode body.

[0120] In one example, the fourth groove 116 is a through groove. The fourth groove 116 includes a fourth left groove wall and a fourth right groove wall. The sixth insulating adhesive layer 126 includes a sixth left insulating adhesive layer provided on the fourth left groove wall and a sixth right insulating adhesive layer provided on the fourth right groove wall.

[0121] The sixth left insulating adhesive layer and the sixth right insulating adhesive layer are arranged in opposing positions in the fourth groove 116 and overlap at the bottom of the groove, or the sixth left insulating adhesive layer and the sixth right insulating adhesive layer are arranged apart in opposing positions at the bottom of the fourth groove 116.

[0122] In one example, the sixth groove 118 is a through groove. The sixth groove 118 includes a sixth left groove wall and a sixth right groove wall. The eighth insulating adhesive layer 128 includes an eighth left insulating adhesive layer provided on the sixth left groove wall and an eighth right insulating adhesive layer provided on the sixth right groove wall.

[0123] The eighth left insulating adhesive layer and the eighth right insulating adhesive layer are positioned at opposing positions in the sixth groove 118 and overlap at the bottom of the groove, or the eighth left insulating adhesive layer and the eighth right insulating adhesive layer are positioned apart at opposing positions at the bottom of the sixth groove 118.

[0124] For example, the sixth left insulating adhesive layer and the sixth right insulating adhesive layer are arranged in opposing positions in the fourth groove 116 and overlap at the groove bottom, and the eighth left insulating adhesive layer and the eighth right insulating adhesive layer are arranged apart in opposing positions at the groove bottom of the sixth groove 118.

[0125] In one example, the sixth left insulating adhesive layer and the sixth right insulating adhesive layer are positioned in opposing positions in the fourth groove 116 and overlap at the groove bottom, and the eighth left insulating adhesive layer and the eighth right insulating adhesive layer are positioned apart in opposing positions at the groove bottom of the sixth groove 118.

[0126] In one example, the sixth left insulating adhesive layer and the sixth right insulating adhesive layer are spaced apart at opposing positions at the bottom of the fourth groove 116, and the eighth left insulating adhesive layer and the eighth right insulating adhesive layer are arranged at opposing positions in the sixth groove 118 and overlap at the bottom of the groove. In one example, there is a gap between the sixth left insulating adhesive layer and the sixth right insulating adhesive layer at a position where they face each other at the bottom of the fourth groove 116, and there is a gap between the eighth left insulating adhesive layer and the eighth right insulating adhesive layer at a position where they face each other at the bottom of the sixth groove 118.

[0127] In addition, if the insulating adhesive layers on the left and right sides of the groove are laminated, the depression caused by the removal of the active material can be filled more effectively, the flatness of the electrode body can be improved, which is advantageous for pressure formation and reduces bending deformation of the battery. Furthermore, problems such as short circuits caused by bending deformation of the cell can be avoided, and the safety of the battery formed by winding the cell can be improved.

[0128] In addition, the left and right insulating adhesive layers are stacked and installed, and thus, the adhesive strength of the insulating adhesive layer covering the active materials can be prevented from being weakened or lost due to the edge adhesive layer that is covered by the electrolyte permeating from the porous active materials (e.g., the positive electrode active material 105, the negative electrode active material 106) into the active materials. However, the portions of the insulating adhesive layer that still cover the grooves (e.g., the positive electrode tab groove 115, the fourth groove 116, the fifth groove 117, and the sixth groove 118) are tightly bonded to the corresponding current collectors (e.g., the positive electrode current collector 101, the negative electrode current collector 102), so that the electrolyte cannot permeate the insulating adhesive layer and the free radicals of the electrolyte cannot infiltrate into the insulating adhesive layer. As a result, the insulating adhesive layer located in the grooves (e.g., the positive electrode tab groove 115, the fourth groove 116, the fifth groove 117, and the sixth groove 118) can still maintain good adhesive strength.

[0129] If either one of the left and right insulating adhesive layers covering the grooves is infiltrated with the electrolyte, causing the adhesive strength of the insulating adhesive layer to weaken or to be lost, and if the adhesive application mechanism of one of them becomes abnormal and causes the adhesive cloth to be leaked, the remaining insulating adhesive layer on the other side can still maintain good adhesive performance, so as to ensure the initial effective insulating effect and reduce the risk of lithium precipitation.

[0130] Even if the adhesive strength of the insulating adhesive layer covering the active material is weakened or lost due to the infiltration of the electrolyte into both the left and right insulating adhesive layers covering the grooves, the left and right insulating adhesive layers are installed by stacking, so the stacked insulating adhesive layers and the grooves are tightly adhered and a good insulating effect can still be ensured; thus, the two-layer installation of the stacked insulating adhesive layers further improves the insulating effect and greatly improves the use safety of the battery formed by winding the electrode body.

[0131] Furthermore, if there is a gap between the left and right insulating adhesive layers at opposing positions at the bottom of the groove, it is possible to save on the amount of insulating adhesive layer used, provided that the insulating effect is guaranteed, and the thickness of the electrode body is also reduced.

[0132] In addition, the provision of the insulating adhesive layer can also serve as a heat insulator, making it possible to prevent contact between the fallen positive electrode active material 105 and the negative electrode current collector 102, or between the fallen negative electrode active material 106 and the positive electrode current collector 101, thereby further reducing the risk of heat generation and explosion of the electrode body.

[0141] The negative electrode sheet A12 includes a negative electrode current collector A102 and a negative electrode active material A106 attached to the negative electrode current collector A102. The negative electrode current collector A102 is provided with at least one second recessed area A113 to which the negative electrode active material A106 is not attached. The second recessed area A113 is not provided with a negative electrode tab A104. This makes it possible to avoid an explosion caused by contact between the negative electrode active material A106 and a burr or welding point of the positive electrode current collector A101 or the positive electrode tab A103 in the first recessed area A111 after piercing the separator. The second recessed area A113 is provided opposite the first recessed area A111. The separator is located between the positive electrode sheet A11 and the negative electrode sheet A12.

[0142] Specifically, the electrode body has a wound structure or a laminated structure. The positive electrode active material A105 includes a first active material. The negative electrode active material A106 includes a second active material. The first active material and the second active material are prepared as a slurry and applied to a corresponding current collector. When charging and discharging are performed, a conductive material migrates between the first active material and the second active material. Those skilled in the art can select the materials of the first active material and the second active material according to actual needs.

[0143] The first recessed area A111 and the second recessed area A113 can be formed by laser cleaning, intermittent coating, or adhesive peeling. The positive electrode tab A103 is fixed to the first recessed area A111. For example, the positive electrode tab A103 is fixed to the first recessed area A111 by a method such as laser welding, ultrasonic welding, resistance welding, or conductive adhesion. The positive electrode tab A103 is a metal foil material, a metal wire material, or the like.

[0144] For example, the first recessed area A111 may be located at 1 / 4-3 / 4 of the length from the beginning to the end of the first current collector, which can reduce the ohmic impedance and improve the fast charging performance of the battery device. Here, the length refers to the length of the first current collector when it is unfolded. Of course, the position of the first recessed area A111 on the first current collector is not limited here, and can be selected by those skilled in the art according to actual needs. In one example, the positive electrode sheet A11 is provided with a positive electrode groove. The bottom of the positive electrode groove is the first recessed area A111. The negative electrode sheet A12 is provided with a negative electrode groove pocket. The bottom of the negative electrode groove is the second recessed area A113.

[0145] For example, the positive electrode active material A105 is removed from the positive electrode sheet A11 to form the positive electrode groove, and the negative electrode active material A106 is removed from the negative electrode sheet A12 to form the negative electrode groove by laser cleaning, intermittent coating, or peeling. The positive electrode current collector A101 and the negative electrode current collector A102 play a role of electrical conductivity. Usually, the positive electrode current collector A101 and the negative electrode current collector A102 are metal foil materials.

[0146] For example, the material of the metal foil material or metal wire material may be copper, aluminum, iron, platinum, gold, silver, lead, tin, etc., but is not limited to these.

[0147] The first recessed region A111 and the second recessed region A113 are provided opposite each other. For example, the first recessed region A111 is located on one side of the separator and faces the separator. The second recessed region A113 is located on the other side of the separator and faces the separator. The first recessed region A111 and the second recessed region A113 are separated by the separator. The separator serves as an insulator, and can prevent the first recessed region A111 and the second recessed region A113 from coming into direct contact with each other and causing a short circuit.

[0148] Taking a lithium ion battery as an example, the conductive material is lithium ions. The first active material is lithium manganese oxide, lithium cobalt oxide, lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, lithium iron phosphate, etc. The positive electrode current collector A101 is aluminum foil. The second active material is graphite, silicon, etc. The negative electrode current collector A102 is copper foil.

[0149] During charging and discharging, lithium ions travel back and forth between the positive and negative electrode sheets A12 to be absorbed and released. During charging, lithium ions are released from the first active material of the positive electrode sheet A11, pass through the electrolyte and separator, and are absorbed into the second active material of the negative electrode sheet A12, at which point the negative electrode sheet A12 is in a lithium-rich state. Conversely, during discharging, lithium ions in the second active material are released from the negative electrode sheet A12, pass through the electrolyte and separator, and are absorbed into the first active material of the positive electrode sheet A11 so that a potential difference is formed between the positive and negative electrode sheets A12.

[0150] Of course, the specific components of the electrode body are not limited here, and those skilled in the art can select them according to actual needs.

[0151] Burrs are likely to form on the positive electrode foil material during processing. Burrs are likely to form on the edge of the first recessed region A111 and / or the edge of the positive electrode tab A103, and welding burrs are also likely to occur at the welded portion between the positive electrode tab A103 and the positive electrode current collector A101. If the burr penetrates the separator and comes into contact with the negative electrode active material A106, the electrode body will generate intense heat and eventually explode.

[0152] Furthermore, dendrites are formed in the first recessed region A111 and / or the positive electrode tab A103. If the dendrites penetrate the separator and then come into contact with the negative electrode active material A106, the electrode body will generate intense heat and eventually explode.

[0153] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first recessed area A111 and the second recessed area A113 are provided opposite each other. This reduces the probability that burrs, dendrites, etc. of the first recessed area A111 and the positive electrode tab A103 will come into contact with the negative electrode active material A106 even if they penetrate the separator and reach the other side of the separator. This installation method significantly reduces the risk of intense heat generation and explosion of the electrode body. The safety of use of the electrode body is significantly improved.

[0154] Although a phenomenon occurs in which burrs and / or dendrites come into contact with the second recessed region A113, the amount of heat generated by such contact is very small, and therefore the safety risk of the electrode body is small.

[0155] In one example, as shown in FIG. 6, the electrode body further includes a first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and a second insulating material adhesive layer A123.

[0156] At least one first recessed area A111 is adhered by a first insulating material adhesive layer A121.

[0157] In one example, at least one second recessed area A113 is adhered by a second insulating material adhesive layer A123.

[0158] For example, the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 are adhesive layers having adhesive properties, and are fixed together by adhesion.

[0159] A first insulating material adhesive layer A121 may be adhered to the first recessed area A111, or a second insulating material adhesive layer A123 may be adhered to the second recessed area A113.

[0160] A first insulating material adhesive layer A121 may be adhered to the first recessed area A111 and a second insulating material adhesive layer A123 may be adhered to the second recessed area A113.

[0161] The first insulating material adhesive layer A121 may be adhered to the first recessed area A111 such that the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 completely covers the first recessed area A111 or may only partially cover the first recessed area A111. The first insulating material adhesive layer A121 may only partially cover the first recessed area A111, and the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 may cover the edge positions of the first recessed area A111.

[0162] The second insulating material adhesive layer A123 may be adhered to the second recessed area A113 such that the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 completely covers the second recessed area A113 or may only partially cover the second recessed area A113. The second insulating material adhesive layer A123 may only partially cover the second recessed area A113, and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 may cover the edge positions of the second recessed area A113.

[0163] The first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 cover burrs and / or dendrites, thereby reducing the probability of the separator being punctured and further improving the safety of use of the electrode assembly.

[0164] 6, the projection of the negative electrode sheet A12 onto the first recessed region A111 is located within the range of the second recessed region A113. The area of ​​the second recessed region A113 is larger than the area of ​​the first recessed region A111.

[0165] For example, the shape of the first recessed region A111 is similar to the shape of the second recessed region A113. The area of ​​the second recessed region A113 is larger than the area of ​​the first recessed region A111. In this way, the area where burrs may occur in the first recessed region A111 is located within the range of the second recessed region A113, that is, outside the negative electrode active material A106, so even if the burrs, dendrites, etc. of the first recessed region A111 and the positive electrode tab A103 penetrate the separator and reach the other side of the separator, the burrs, dendrites, etc. will not come into contact with the negative electrode active material A106. Therefore, the risk of the electrode body generating intense heat and even exploding is extremely low. The use safety of the electrode body is very high.

[0166] For example, the first recessed region A111 and the second recessed region A113 are rectangular, and the width and length of the second recessed region A113 are both larger than the width and length of the first recessed region A111, for example, by 1 mm or more on each side. The length is the dimension along the X-axis. Within this range, burrs, dendrites, and the like can be effectively prevented from contacting the negative electrode active material A106.

[0167] The area of ​​the first recessed region A111 where burrs or dendrites may occur is located within the range of the second recessed region A113. In other words, since it is located outside the negative electrode active material A106, even if the burrs, dendrites, etc. of the first recessed region A111 and the positive electrode tab A103 penetrate the separator and reach the other side of the separator, the burrs, dendrites, etc. will not come into contact with the negative electrode active material A106. Therefore, the risk of the electrode body generating intense heat and even exploding is extremely low. The use safety of the electrode body is very high.

[0168] In one example, as shown in FIG. 13, the bottom of the positive electrode groove in the positive electrode sheet A11 is the first recessed area A111, and the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 is fixed to the first recessed area A111 and extends to the side of the positive electrode groove.

[0169] In one example, the bottom of the negative electrode groove in the negative electrode sheet A12 is the second recessed area A113, and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is fixed to the second recessed area A113 and extends to the side of the negative electrode groove.

[0170] In this example, a portion of the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 is located in the first recessed region A111, and another portion is located in the positive electrode active material A105.

[0171] In one example, a portion of the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is located in the second recessed area A113, and another portion is located in the negative electrode active material A106.

[0172] Since neither the positive electrode current collector A101 nor the negative electrode current collector A102 is made of a porous material, even if the electrolyte penetrates from the porous active material (e.g., the negative electrode active material A106, the positive electrode active material A105) into the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 that cover the active material, and the adhesiveness of the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 that cover the active material is weakened or lost, the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 do not become weak or lose their adhesiveness. The portions that cover the blank areas (e.g., the first recessed area A111, the second recessed area A113) are tightly bonded to the corresponding current collectors (e.g., the positive electrode current collector A101, the negative electrode current collector A102), so that the electrolyte cannot penetrate into the insulating adhesive layer and the radicals of the electrolyte cannot penetrate into the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123. As a result, the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 located in the blank areas (e.g., the first recessed area A111, the second recessed area A113) can still maintain good adhesion.

[0173] In addition, the first recessed region A111 and the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 bonded to the positive electrode active material A105 are integrally connected. The second recessed region A113 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 bonded to the negative electrode active material A106 are integrally connected. This prevents the insulating adhesive layer (e.g., the first insulating material adhesive layer A121, the second insulating material adhesive layer A123) covering the active material from shifting from the initial bonding position. Therefore, the insulating adhesive layer (e.g., the first insulating material adhesive layer A121, the second insulating material adhesive layer A123) covering the active material still maintains its initial insulating function, and the risk of lithium precipitation can be effectively reduced.

[0174] In one example, as shown in Figures 7-12, a first insulating material adhesive layer A121 covers the first recessed area A111.

[0175] In one example, the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 covers the second recessed area A113.

[0176] In this example, the insulating adhesive layer (e.g., the first insulating material adhesive layer A121, the second insulating material adhesive layer A123) can effectively protect the first recessed region A111 and / or the second recessed region A113 and prevent the electrolyte from excessively corroding the positive electrode current collector A101 and / or the negative electrode current collector A102.

[0177] In addition, the insulating adhesive layers (e.g., the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123) can also serve as heat insulators, preventing the heat generated when welding the positive electrode tab A103 and the external element from diffusing to other parts of the electrode body.

[0178] Furthermore, the first recessed region A111 and the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 covering the positive electrode active material A105 are connected together, and the second recessed region A113 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 covering the negative electrode active material A106 are connected together, which makes it possible to prevent the fallen positive electrode active material A105 from contacting the negative electrode current collector A102 or the fallen negative electrode active material A106 from contacting the positive electrode current collector A101, further reducing the risk of heat generation and explosion of the electrode body.

[0179] In one example, as shown in FIGS. 7-12, the side of the positive electrode groove has multiple surfaces, the multiple surfaces surround the first recessed area A111, and each surface is provided with a first insulating material adhesive layer A121; and / or The negative electrode groove has a side with multiple faces, which surround the second recessed area A113, and each face is provided with a second insulating material adhesive layer A123.

[0180] When the positive electrode groove penetrates the positive electrode active material along the width direction, i.e., when the first recessed region penetrates the positive electrode sheet along the width direction, the side of the positive electrode groove includes two opposing surfaces, and when the positive electrode groove is a notch along the width direction of the positive electrode active material, i.e., when the first recessed region is a notch on one side along the width direction of the positive electrode active material, the side of the positive electrode groove includes three surfaces connected in sequence.

[0181] When the negative electrode groove penetrates the negative electrode active material along the width direction, i.e., when the second recessed region penetrates the negative electrode sheet along the width direction, the side of the negative electrode groove includes two opposing surfaces, and when the negative electrode groove is a notch along the width direction of the negative electrode active material, i.e., when the second recessed region is a notch on one side along the width direction of the negative electrode active material, the side of the negative electrode groove includes three surfaces connected in sequence.

[0182] In this example, one insulating adhesive layer (e.g., the first insulating material adhesive layer A121, the second insulating material adhesive layer A123) may cover multiple surfaces. In this way, the insulating adhesive layer can cover burrs, dendrites, etc. in all directions. For example, the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 may have a U-shaped structure or an integral structure.

[0183] Different insulating adhesive layers (eg, the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123) may each cover a different surface.

[0184] Since each surface is covered with an insulating adhesive layer (e.g., the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123), the insulating adhesive layer (e.g., the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123) can effectively isolate the active materials (e.g., the positive electrode active material A105, the negative electrode active material A106) on each surface, thereby reducing the risk of lithium precipitation.

[0185] In one example, as shown in FIG. 13, the first insulating material adhesive layers A121 on different surfaces are provided independently.

[0186] In one example, the second insulating material adhesive layers A123 on different sides are provided independently.

[0187] For example, the positive electrode active material A105 has two sides parallel to the width direction. The region between the two sides is a first recessed region A111. A first insulating material adhesive layer A121 is provided on each of the two sides. The two first insulating material adhesive layers A121 are provided opposite each other. A portion of each first insulating material adhesive layer A121 is adhered to the positive electrode active material A105, and the other portion is adhered to the first recessed region A111.

[0188] The negative electrode active material A106 has two opposing surfaces parallel to the width direction, and the region between the two opposing surfaces is the second recessed region A113, i.e., the two opposing surfaces are the sides of the negative electrode groove. A second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is provided on each of the two opposing surfaces. The two second insulating material adhesive layers A123 are provided opposite each other. A portion of each second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is adhered to the negative electrode active material A106, and the other portion is adhered to the second recessed region A113.

[0189] The positive electrode active material A105 has two opposing surfaces parallel to the width direction, and the region between the two opposing surfaces is the first recessed region A111, i.e., the two opposing surfaces are the sides of the positive electrode groove. A first insulating material adhesive layer A121 is provided on each of the two opposing surfaces. The two first insulating material adhesive layers A121 are provided opposite each other. A portion of each first insulating material adhesive layer A121 is adhered to the positive electrode active material A105, and the other portion is adhered to the first recessed region A111.

[0190] Of course, the sides of the positive electrode groove and the negative electrode groove are not limited to two sides, and those skilled in the art can select according to actual needs.

[0191] In this example, the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 on different sides are provided independently, so that the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 do not affect each other. In this way, even if some insulating adhesive layers fall off, it does not affect the function of the other insulating adhesive layers.

[0192] In one example, the portions of the multiple first insulating material adhesive layers A121 located in the first recessed areas A111 are provided in a stacked manner.

[0193] In one example, the portions of the multiple second insulating material adhesive layers A123 located in the second recessed areas A113 are provided in a stacked manner.

[0194] In this example, the method of stacking a plurality of first insulating material adhesive layers A121 or a plurality of third insulating material adhesive layers A122 is as shown in Fig. 13. The stacked first insulating material adhesive layers A121 or the plurality of second insulating material adhesive layers A123 are less likely to be pierced by burrs, dendrites, etc. than a single first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or a single second insulating material adhesive layer A123. This can improve the safety of the electrode body when used.

[0195] In addition, the first recessed area A111 and the second recessed area A113 are usually the bottom of a groove. The thickness of the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is usually thin. The multi-layer insulating adhesive layer can fill the recessed groove, thereby making the overall thickness of the positive electrode sheet A11 and / or the negative electrode sheet A12 more uniform, and avoiding defects in the electrode assembly caused by uneven thickness of the positive and negative electrode sheets A12 during the manufacturing process.

[0196] In one example, the portions of the plurality of first insulating material adhesive layers A121 located in the first recessed regions A111 surround the sub-void regions.

[0197] In one example, the portions of the plurality of second insulating material adhesive layers A123 located in the second recessed areas A113 surround the sub-void areas.

[0198] In this example, the sub-blank area is a portion of the first recessed area A111 or the second recessed area A113. This portion is not covered with the insulating adhesive layer. In this way, the amount of the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 used can be reduced, and raw materials can be saved.

[0199] In addition, since the sub-blank areas are not covered with the insulating adhesive layer, the first current collector and the second current collector have better heat dissipation performance.

[0200] In one example, the first recessed areas A111 are provided symmetrically with respect to the positive electrode current collector A101 as shown in Fig. 8. A positive electrode tab A103 is provided in one of the first recessed areas A111.

[0201] In this example, two symmetrically arranged first recessed areas A111 provide a space for welding the positive electrode tab A103. For example, the positive electrode tab A103 is welded to one of the first recessed areas A111 by laser welding, resistance welding, or ultrasonic welding.

[0202] In this example, the two symmetrically arranged first recessed areas A111 provide a working space for resistance welding, laser welding, or ultrasonic welding of the positive electrode tab A103. The two first insulating material adhesive layers A121 can prevent burrs of the two first recessed areas A111 from piercing the separator.

[0203] In one example, at least one of the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is a single-sided tape, a high-temperature adhesive, or an insulating film.

[0204] In one example, at least one of the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is a double-sided tape or a hot melt adhesive, and at least one of the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 includes a first adhesive surface and a second adhesive surface having different adhesive strengths, the first adhesive surface is adhered to a separator, and the adhesive strength of the first adhesive surface is greater than the adhesive strength of the second adhesive surface.

[0205] In this example, when the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is a single-sided tape, a high-temperature adhesive, or an insulating film, the first adhesive layer has only one adhesive surface, that is, the surface that is adhered to the first recessed area A111 and the second recessed area A113. When the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is a double-sided tape or a hot melt adhesive, the second adhesive surface is a surface that has a weak adhesive effect, and the second adhesive surface is adhered to the first recessed area A111 and the second recessed area A113.

[0206] Here, the high-temperature adhesive is an adhesive that maintains its viscosity even under high-temperature operation of the battery device, and the insulating film is an adhesive film formed by curing a liquid adhesive in a corresponding region using a coating and curing method.

[0207] For example, single-sided tapes, double-sided adhesives, high-temperature adhesives or hot melt adhesives are adhesives based on polymer materials and coated with viscous components such as acrylic resin adhesives, SBR adhesives, SIS adhesives, etc. Those skilled in the art can select the materials of the base and viscous components according to actual needs.

[0208] Of course, the material of the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 or the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is not limited to the above embodiment, and those skilled in the art can select it according to actual needs.

[0209] In one example, the first recessed region A111 penetrates the positive electrode sheet A11 in the width direction. In this example, the width direction is the Y-axis direction. The positive electrode groove may penetrate the positive electrode sheet A11 in the width direction. In this case, the side portion of the positive electrode groove includes two opposing surfaces.

[0210] In one example, the positive electrode active material A105 has a notch on one side in the width direction of the positive electrode sheet A11. The first recessed region A111 is formed by the notch. In this example, the positive electrode active material A105 has a notch on one side in the width direction of the positive electrode sheet A11, and the first recessed region A111 is formed by the notch. That is, the positive electrode groove does not penetrate the positive electrode sheet A11. In this case, the side of the positive electrode groove includes three opposing surfaces.

[0211] As a result, provided that the positive electrode tab A103 can be normally installed in the first recessed area A111, some active material can still be reserved around the first recessed area A111 formed in the positive electrode sheet A11, and some of the reserved active material can still undergo lithium ion transfer reaction, thereby improving the energy density of the electrode body.

[0212] In one example, the second recessed area A113 penetrates the negative electrode sheet A12 in the width direction. In this example, the negative electrode groove may penetrate the negative electrode sheet A12 in the width direction. In this case, the side of the negative electrode groove includes two opposing surfaces.

[0213] In one example, the negative electrode active material A106 has a notch on one side in the width direction of the negative electrode sheet A12. The second recessed region A113 is formed by the notch. In this example, the negative electrode active material A106 has a notch on one side in the width direction of the negative electrode sheet A12, and the second recessed region A113 is formed by the notch, that is, the negative electrode groove does not penetrate the negative electrode sheet A12. In this case, the side of the negative electrode groove includes three opposing surfaces.

[0214] In this way, under the condition that the negative electrode tab A104 can be normally installed in the second recessed area A113, a portion of the active material can still be retained around the second recessed area A113 formed in the negative electrode sheet A12, and the migrated lithium ions can be absorbed, thereby reducing the risk of lithium precipitation occurring.

[0215] In addition, some of the reserved active material can still undergo lithium ion transfer reactions, improving the energy density of the electrode body.

[0216] According to the present disclosure, a battery device is provided. The battery device includes the electrode body described above. The battery device may be, but is not limited to, a lithium ion battery, a sodium ion battery, a nickel metal hydride battery, a nickel cadmium battery, or the like. The battery device may be a soft pack battery or a prismatic battery.

[0217] The battery device includes a case and an electrode body. The electrode body is provided within the case. The battery device is characterized by excellent safety performance.

[0218] According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided an electronic device, the electronic device including the battery device described above.

[0219] For example, the electronic device may be a vehicle, a mobile phone, an earphone, an electronic pen, VR, AR, etc., which is not limited here, and those skilled in the art can select according to actual needs.

[0220] This electronic device is characterized by a high safety factor.

[0221] Example 1 As shown in Figures 7 to 12, this embodiment provides a lithium ion battery. The lithium ion battery includes a positive electrode sheet A11, a negative electrode sheet A12, a separator A107, and an electrolyte. The positive electrode sheet A11 includes a positive electrode current collector A101, a positive electrode tab A103, a positive electrode active material A105, and a first recessed area A111. The positive electrode tab A103 is welded to the first recessed area A111.

[0222] The negative electrode sheet A12 includes a negative electrode current collector A102, a negative electrode tab A104, a negative electrode active material A106, and a third recessed area A112. The negative electrode tab A104 is welded to the third recessed area A112.

[0223] Neither the front nor the back of the first recessed region A111 nor the third recessed region A112 is coated with active material, and the second recessed region A113 is provided at a position on the negative electrode sheet A12 corresponding to the first recessed region A111. The back surface of the second recessed region A113 is coated with negative electrode active material A106.

[0224] The first insulating material adhesive layer A121 covers the first recessed region A111 and the surrounding positive electrode active material A105, and the third insulating material adhesive layer A122 covers the third recessed region A112 and the surrounding negative electrode active material A106.

[0225] The second insulating material adhesive layer A123 covers the second recessed region A113 and the surrounding negative electrode active material A106.

[0226] The length and width of the first recessed region A111 are smaller than the length and width of the second recessed region A113. The length is the dimension along the X-axis, and the width is the dimension along the Y-axis.

[0227] The length and width of the first insulating material adhesive layer A121 are greater than the length and width of the second insulating material adhesive layer A123. That is, to prevent lithium deposition, the length and width of the insulating adhesive layer on the positive electrode sheet A11 are greater than the insulating adhesive layer on the negative electrode sheet A12.

[0228] Taking a soft-pack battery (model: 466480, ie, cell thickness 4.6 mm, width 64 mm, height 80 mm) as an example, the manufacturing method of the lithium secondary battery of the embodiment of the present application will be described below.

[0229] The positive electrode sheet was produced as follows.

[0230] Cathode active material LiCoO 2 A carbon nanotube (CNT) conductive agent, a PVDF binder, and NMP were mixed in a mass ratio of 100:0.5:0.7:28 and stirred to obtain a positive electrode slurry.

[0231] The positive electrode slurry was applied onto an aluminum foil having a thickness of 9 μm to form a positive electrode active material A105. The surface density of the positive electrode active material A105 was 17.4 mg / cm 2 It was.

[0232] The mixture was dried, tableted, and slit to obtain a positive electrode sheet A11 having a width of 73 mm and a length of 1120 mm.

[0233] Using a laser cleaning device, the positive electrode active material A105 is cleaned at a position 1 / 4 of the total length from the end of the positive electrode sheet A11 to form a first recessed region A111. The first recessed region A111 has a length of 18 mm and a width of 10 mm.

[0234] The first recessed region A111 and its periphery are covered with a first insulating material adhesive layer A121. The first insulating material adhesive layer A121 is 24 mm long and 16 mm wide. The first insulating material adhesive layer A121 completely covers the first recessed region A111, partially covers the positive electrode active material, and covers one side by 3 mm.

[0235] The negative electrode sheet was produced as follows.

[0236] The negative electrode active material graphite, Super-P conductive agent, CMC-Li binder, and deionized water are stirred in a mass ratio of 100:0.3:1.1:110 to obtain a negative electrode slurry.

[0237] The negative electrode slurry was applied onto a copper foil having a thickness of 5 μm to form a negative electrode active material A106. The surface density of the negative electrode active material A106 was 9.6 mg / cm 2 It was.

[0238] The mixture was dried, tableted, and then slit to obtain a negative electrode sheet A12 having a width of 74.5 mm and a length of 1,040 mm.

[0239] Using a laser cleaning device, the third recessed region A112 is cleaned at a position of the central half of the negative electrode sheet A12. The third recessed region A112 has a length of 20 mm and a width of 12 mm.

[0240] At a position of the negative electrode sheet A12 corresponding to the first recessed area A111, a second recessed area A113 having a length of 20 mm and a width of 12 mm is cleaned.

[0241] The third recessed region A112 and the surrounding negative electrode active material are covered with a third insulating material adhesive layer A122. The third insulating material adhesive layer A122 has a width of 14 mm, a length of 22 mm, and a cover material on one side of 1 mm.

[0242] The second recessed regions A113 and the surrounding negative electrode active material are covered with a second insulating material adhesive layer A123. The second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is 14 mm wide and 22 mm long, with a portion covering the negative electrode active material A106 in the width direction being 1 mm and a portion covering the negative electrode active material A106 in the length direction being 2 mm. Two second recessed regions A113 are provided in the negative electrode sheet, and the second insulating material adhesive layer A123 is adhered to the two second recessed regions A113.

[0243] The electrolyte was prepared as follows.

[0244] EMC:DEC:EC:EP were uniformly mixed in a mass ratio of 30%:30%:30%:10%.

[0245] LiPF6 was added as a solute. The concentration of LiPF6 was 1M.

[0246] As additives, 2 mass % of adiponitrile and 1 mass % of 1,6-hexanetricarbonitrile were added, and the mixture was sufficiently dissolved to obtain an electrolyte solution.

[0247] The manufacture of a lithium battery is as follows.

[0248] The positive electrode sheet A11, the negative electrode sheet A12, and the separator A107 prepared above were wound in a winding device to prepare a winding core, and the winding core was baked and dried, and then an electrolyte was injected, sealed, and molded to prepare a final lithium battery.

[0249] This lithium-ion battery has a high safety factor.

[0250] Example 2 13, in this example, two independent second insulating material adhesive layers A123 are laminated in the second recessed area A113. After lamination, the recess caused by the negative electrode groove can be filled, which is beneficial to the overall flatness of the electrode body and reduces the bending deformation of the electrode body.

[0251] (Third aspect) According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided an electrode assembly for use in a battery device.

[0252] 14-15, the electrode assembly includes a first pole piece, a first insulating adhesive B124a and a second insulating adhesive B124b. The first electrode sheet is a positive electrode sheet B11 or a negative electrode sheet B12.

[0253] The first electrode sheet includes a current collector and an active material attached to a surface of the current collector, and a groove (e.g., a fourth escape groove B114) including a bottom and opposing first and second side wall portions is provided on the surface of the active material, and the active material is not attached to the bottom of the groove (e.g., the fourth escape groove B114).

[0254] A first insulating adhesive B124a is adhered to the bottom and extends over the active material of the first sidewall.

[0255] A second insulating adhesive B124b is adhered to the bottom and extends over the active material of the second sidewall.

[0256] Specifically, the current collector is a metal foil material. The groove (e.g., the fourth relief groove B114) can be formed by laser cleaning, intermittent coating, or adhesive peeling. The current collector is exposed at the bottom of the groove (e.g., the fourth relief groove B114). For example, the positive electrode current collector B101 is an aluminum foil, and the negative electrode current collector B102 is a copper foil.

[0257] The active material may be a positive electrode active material B105 or a negative electrode active material B106. Take an electrode body of a lithium ion battery as an example. The positive electrode active material B105 includes lithium manganese oxide, lithium cobalt oxide, lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, lithium iron phosphate, etc. The negative electrode active material B106 includes graphite, silicon, etc. The first side wall portion and the second side wall portion are formed after the active material is removed. The first side wall portion and the second side wall portion may be provided opposite to each other or adjacent to each other.

[0258] Of course, the active material is not limited to the above examples, and those skilled in the art can select it according to actual needs.

[0259] For example, as shown in Fig. 14, the electrode assembly further includes a second electrode sheet and a separator B107. The separator B107 is located between the first electrode sheet and the second electrode sheet.

[0260] Taking the electrode body of a lithium ion battery as an example, in the process of charging and discharging, lithium ions shuttle between the positive and negative electrode sheets B12 to be absorbed and released. During charging, lithium ions are released from the positive electrode active material B105 of the positive electrode sheet B11, and are absorbed in the negative electrode active material B106 of the negative electrode sheet B12 through the electrolyte and separator B107, at which time the negative electrode sheet B12 becomes lithium-rich. Conversely, during discharging, lithium ions in the negative electrode active material B106 are released from the negative electrode sheet B12, and are absorbed in the positive electrode active material B105 of the positive electrode sheet B11 through the electrolyte and separator B107 so that a potential difference is formed between the positive and negative electrode sheets B12.

[0261] Of course, the specific components of the electrode body are not limited here, and those skilled in the art can select them according to actual needs.

[0262] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first insulating adhesive B124a is attached to the bottom and extends onto the active material of the first sidewall. The second insulating adhesive B124b is attached to the bottom and extends onto the active material of the second sidewall. The first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are spaced apart and fixed to the bottom. In this way, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b can effectively cover the active material at the edge of the groove, thereby avoiding the release of conductive material and further avoiding the deposition of conductive material on the pole piece of the other polarity, such as avoiding the deposition of lithium.

[0263] In addition, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b cover a portion of the current collector, preventing conductive materials between the current collector and the pole piece of the other polarity, such as lithium ions, from reaching the current collector, thereby preventing the precipitation of conductive materials, such as lithium, on the current collector.

[0264] Furthermore, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b cover the current collector, thereby shielding burrs on the current collector and preventing the burrs from penetrating the separator B107.

[0265] Furthermore, even if one of the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b falls off, the effect of the other insulating adhesive in preventing lithium deposition and preventing burrs from puncturing the separator B107 is not affected, thereby improving the safety of using the electrode body.

[0266] In one example, the electrode assembly further includes a second electrode sheet and a separator B107, as shown in Figure 14. The separator B107 is located between the first electrode sheet and the second electrode sheet.

[0267] In one example, as shown in FIG. 16, the first insulating adhesive B124a extends from the first sidewall to the surface of the active material, and the second insulating adhesive B124b extends from the second sidewall to the surface of the active material.

[0268] In this example, a part of the first insulating adhesive B124a is located at the bottom of the groove (e.g., the fourth escape groove B114), and another part is located in the active material, e.g., the positive electrode active material B105. A part of the second insulating adhesive B124b is located at the bottom of the groove (e.g., the fourth escape groove B114), and another part is located in the active material.

[0269] Since neither the positive electrode current collector B101 nor the negative electrode current collector B102 is a porous material, even if the electrolyte penetrates from a porous active material (e.g., the negative electrode active material B106, the positive electrode active material B105) into the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b that cover the active material, and the adhesiveness of the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b that cover the active material is weakened or lost, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b can be maintained. Since the portion covering the bottom of 4b is tightly bonded to the corresponding current collector (e.g., positive electrode current collector B101, negative electrode current collector B102), the electrolyte cannot penetrate into the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b, and the radicals of the electrolyte cannot penetrate into the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b, so that the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b located at the bottom can still maintain good adhesion.

[0270] In addition, the first insulating adhesive B124a that covers the bottom and the active material (e.g., the negative electrode active material B106, the positive electrode active material B105) is integrally bonded. The bottom and the second insulating adhesive B124b that covers the active material (e.g., the negative electrode active material B106, the positive electrode active material B105) are integrally connected. This prevents the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b that cover the active material from shifting from their initial bonding positions. Therefore, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b that cover the active material still maintain their initial insulating function, and the risk of lithium precipitation can be effectively reduced.

[0271] In one example, as shown in FIGS. 14, 16, and 17, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are laminated on the portion located at the bottom.

[0272] In this example, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are laminated to effectively cover the bottom of the groove. The laminated installation method is less susceptible to puncture by burrs, dendrites, etc., compared to a single first insulating adhesive B124a or second insulating adhesive B124b. This can increase the safety of the electrode assembly when used.

[0273] In addition, the thickness of the first insulating adhesive B124a or the second insulating adhesive B124b is usually thin. The multi-layer insulating adhesive can fill the grooves (e.g., the fourth relief groove B114), making the overall thickness of the electrode sheet more uniform and avoiding defects in the electrode body caused by uneven thickness of the positive and negative electrode sheets B12 during the manufacturing process.

[0274] In addition, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b, which are stacked and installed, can fill in the depressions caused by the grooves, which is beneficial for the overall flatness of the electrode body, reduce bending deformation of the electrode body, and avoid problems such as short circuits caused by bending deformation of the electrode body, and ultimately improve the safety of use of the battery formed by winding the electrode body.

[0275] Furthermore, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are disposed in a layered manner in the recessed groove, thereby making it possible to improve the overall flatness of the electrode body.

[0276] In one example, as shown in FIGS. 18, 19, and 20, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are spaced apart at the portions located at the bottom.

[0277] For example, when the active material attached to the surface of the current collector is relatively thin, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are separated at the portion located at the bottom, there is no laminated portion, and the height after the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are laminated exceeds the height of the active material, thereby avoiding the problem of unevenness.

[0278] For example, a blank area is formed between the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b. This blank area is not covered with the insulating paste. In this way, the amount of the first insulating adhesive B124a or the second insulating adhesive B124b used can be reduced, and raw materials can be saved.

[0279] Furthermore, the current collectors, for example, the positive electrode current collector B101 and the negative electrode current collector B102, are exposed in the blank areas, which allows the current collectors to have better heat dissipation performance.

[0280] In one example, as shown in FIG. 18, the bottom portion is provided with an electrode tab located in a region where the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are separated from each other.

[0281] For example, the tab is a positive electrode tab B103 or a negative electrode tab B104. The tab is welded to the blank area by laser welding, resistance welding, or ultrasonic welding, or the tab is die-cut into the pole piece to form the tab. In this way, the space in the groove (for example, the fourth relief groove B114) can be fully utilized.

[0282] In one example, the length of the portion of the first insulating adhesive B124a that extends onto the surface of the active material is 0.5 mm or more, and the length of the portion of the second insulating adhesive B124b that extends onto the surface of the active material is 0.5 mm or more.

[0283] Within this range, the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b can effectively protect the active material.

[0284] Moreover, under the condition that the electrode sheet is the positive electrode sheet B11, this size range can effectively prevent the occurrence of the lithium deposition phenomenon in the negative electrode sheet B12.

[0285] In one example, as shown in FIG. 16, the groove (e.g., the fourth escape groove B114) is a through groove along the width direction of the pole piece. The width direction is the Y-axis direction. For example, the bottom is rectangular. The first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are provided on two sides of the rectangle, respectively, and extend to the side wall portions, and then extend to the surface of the active material. The first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are Z-shaped and symmetrical with respect to the central axis of the groove (e.g., the fourth escape groove B114).

[0286] In this example, the process of forming the groove (such as the fourth relief groove B114) is simple. When a tab needs to be welded, the bottom space is large, making it easy to weld the tab.

[0287] In one example, the recessed groove is an open groove extending toward one side in the width direction of the current collector, and further includes a third side wall portion connected between the first side wall portion and the second side wall portion. The third side wall portion faces an opening of the open groove.

[0288] The electrode body further includes a third insulating adhesive that is adhered to the bottom portion and extends onto the active material of the third sidewall portion.

[0289] In this example, the open groove is a non-through groove, which allows the first tab to be properly installed at the bottom, and allows some of the active material to be reserved around the bottom, allowing the lithium ions to be absorbed and the risk of lithium precipitation to be reduced.

[0290] In addition, some of the reserved active material can still undergo lithium ion transfer reactions, improving the energy density of the electrode body.

[0291] In one example, at least one of the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b is a single-sided tape, a high-temperature adhesive, an insulating film, a double-sided tape, or a hot melt adhesive.

[0292] In this example, under the condition that the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are single-sided tapes, high-temperature adhesives or insulating films, only one side of the first adhesive layer has an adhesive effect, that is, the side that is attached to the bottom. Under the condition that the first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are double-sided tapes or hot melt adhesives, the second adhesive side is the side that has a weak adhesive effect, and the second adhesive side is attached to the bottom. The first adhesive side is the side that has a strong adhesive effect. The first adhesive side is used for bonding to the separator B107 of the battery device. The first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b can effectively prevent lithium ions from passing through the separator B107, reducing the risk of lithium precipitation on the negative electrode sheet B12.

[0293] Here, the high-temperature adhesive is an adhesive that maintains its viscosity even under high-temperature operation of the battery device, and the insulating film is an adhesive film formed by curing a liquid adhesive in a corresponding region using a coating and curing method.

[0294] For example, single-sided tapes, double-sided adhesives, high-temperature adhesives or hot melt adhesives are adhesives based on polymer materials and coated with viscous components such as acrylic resin adhesives, SBR adhesives, SIS adhesives, etc. Those skilled in the art can select the materials of the substrate and viscous components according to actual needs.

[0295] Of course, the material of the insulating adhesive is not limited to the above embodiment, and those skilled in the art can select it according to actual needs.

[0296] In one example, as shown in FIG. 14, a tab groove is provided in the second electrode sheet, a tab is provided in the tab groove, the electrode body further includes a third insulating adhesive covering the tab groove, and the recessed groove is provided opposite the tab groove.

[0297] In this example, the tab is a negative electrode tab B104 under the condition that the second electrode sheet is a negative electrode sheet B12. The electrode tab is a positive electrode tab B103 under the condition that the second electrode sheet is a positive electrode sheet B11. For example, as shown in FIG. 14, a negative electrode tab B104 is provided in the negative electrode tab groove B112a. The negative electrode tab groove B112a is covered with a third insulating adhesive B122a (corresponding to the first insulating adhesive layer 121 in the first embodiment). A groove, for example, a fourth escape groove B114, faces the negative electrode tab groove B122a. The first insulating adhesive B124a and the second insulating adhesive B124b are coated in the fourth escape groove B114. The third insulating adhesive can cover the negative electrode tab groove B112a. This can effectively prevent the burrs of the negative electrode tab B104 from breaking through the separator B107.

[0298] Moreover, the third insulating adhesive 122a can effectively reduce lithium deposition in the negative electrode tab groove B112a.

[0299] Furthermore, even if a burr on the positive electrode sheet pierces the separator B107 and the third insulating adhesive 122a, the presence of the negative electrode tab groove B112a prevents the burr from coming into contact with the negative electrode active material, effectively preventing sudden heat generation in the electrode body.

[0300] According to the present disclosure, a battery device is provided. The battery device includes the electrode body described above. The battery device may be, but is not limited to, a lithium ion battery, a sodium ion battery, a nickel metal hydride battery, a nickel cadmium battery, or the like. The battery device may be a soft pack battery or a prismatic battery.

[0301] The battery device includes a case and an electrode body. The electrode body is provided within the case. The battery device is characterized by excellent safety performance.

[0302] According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided an electronic device, the electronic device including the battery device described above.

[0303] For example, the electronic device may be a vehicle, a mobile phone, an earphone, an electronic pen, VR, AR, etc., which is not limited here, and those skilled in the art can select according to actual needs.

[0304] This electronic device is characterized by a high safety factor.
