AI Technical Summary
Existing energy storage cells face challenges in maintaining uniform electrolyte distribution, leading to uneven electrolyte retention which can affect performance and stability.
The energy storage cell design incorporates an intervening film with a specific thickness distribution, where the center region is thicker than the surrounding areas, inhibiting electrolyte movement and enhancing uniform electrolyte distribution by including a porous intervening film with inorganic particles and a binder, and a separator with a zigzag pattern to alternately sandwich electrodes.
This design reduces unevenness in electrolyte retention, improving the cell's performance and stability by ensuring a more uniform distribution of electrolyte, thereby enhancing the cell's operational efficiency.

[0008] 1. A storage cell in one aspect of the present disclosure includes the following configuration: The storage cell includes a case, an electrolyte, and an electrode body. The case houses the electrolyte and the electrode body. The electrode body includes a first electrode, a second electrode, a separator, and an intervening film. The first electrode and the second electrode are stacked alternately. The separator separates the first electrode from the second electrode. The intervening film is interposed between the first electrode and the separator. In a plane perpendicular to the stacking direction of the first and second electrodes, the intervening film includes a first region and a second region. The first region includes the center of the intervening film in that plane. The second region surrounds the first region. The intervening film satisfies the following relationship: T2 <T1 (1) T1 indicates the thickness of the intervening film in the first region. T2 indicates the thickness of the intervening film in the second region.
[0009] In one aspect of this disclosure, the electrode body includes an intervening film in addition to the electrode and separator. The intervening film has a specific thickness distribution; that is, a first region (center) of the intervening film is thicker than the surrounding area. The movement of the electrolyte around the first region can be inhibited by the first region. By inhibiting the movement of the electrolyte, it is expected that the unevenness of the amount of electrolyte held will be reduced.
[0010] 2. The energy storage cell described in "1" above may include, for example, the following configuration: The energy storage cell has a height direction, a width direction, and a thickness direction. The height direction, width direction, and thickness direction are orthogonal to each other. The thickness direction is parallel to the stacking direction. In a plane orthogonal to the stacking direction, the first region extends in the width direction. The second region includes the third and fourth regions. In the height direction, the first region is located between the third and fourth regions. The intercalated membrane further satisfies the relationship shown in equation (2) below. T3 <T4 (2) T3 indicates the thickness of the intervening film in the third region. T4 indicates the thickness of the intervening film in the fourth region.
[0011] Because the first region extends in the width direction, the movement of the electrolyte can be inhibited over a wide area. Furthermore, in the height direction, because the third region (thin-walled section) is located on one side of the first region (thick-walled section), it is expected that the electrolyte will be stored in the third region. The synergistic effect of these factors is expected to reduce unevenness in the amount of electrolyte held.
[0012] 3. The energy storage cell described in "2" above may include, for example, the following configuration: The intervening film further satisfies the relationships of equations (3) and (4) below. 10 μm ≤ T1 ≤ 20 μm (3) T3 ≤ 3 μm (4)
[0013] 4. The energy storage cell described in any one of items "1" to "3" above may include, for example, the following configuration: An intervening film is formed on at least one surface of the first electrode and the separator. The intervening film is porous. The intervening film contains inorganic particles and a binder.
[0014] 5. The energy storage cell described in any one of items "2" to "4" above may include, for example, the following configuration: The separator includes a zigzag section. In the zigzag section, the separator is folded in a zigzag pattern. At both ends in the height direction, the separator is folded back. The separator is folded back so as to alternately sandwich the first electrode or the second electrode.
[0015] Embodiments of the present disclosure (which may be abbreviated as "Embodiments") are described below. However, these embodiments do not limit the technical scope of the present disclosure. These embodiments are illustrative in all respects. These embodiments are non-restrictive. The technical scope of the present disclosure includes all modifications within the meaning and scope equivalent to the claims. For example, it is intended from the outset that any configuration may be extracted from these embodiments and combined in any way.
[0016] Geometric terms should not be construed in a strict sense. Examples of geometric terms include, for example, "parallel", "perpendicular", "orthogonal", etc. For example, "parallel" may deviate somewhat from "parallel" in the strict sense. Geometric terms may include, for example, tolerances, errors, etc. in design, operation, manufacturing, etc. The dimensional relationships in each figure may not match the actual dimensional relationships. In order to assist the reader's understanding, the dimensional relationships in each figure may be changed. For example, the length, width, thickness, etc. may be changed. Furthermore, some components may be omitted.
[0017] A numerical range such as "from m to n%" includes both ends, unless otherwise specified. That is, "from m to n%" indicates a numerical range of "m% or more and n% or less". "m% or more and n% or less" includes "more than m% and less than n%". "or more" and "or less" are represented by the inequality sign "≦" with an equal sign. "more than" and "less than" are represented by the inequality sign "<" that does not include an equal sign. A numerically arbitrarily selected value within the numerical range may be used as a new upper limit value or lower limit value. For example, a new numerical range may be set by arbitrarily combining a numerical value within the numerical range with a numerical value described in another part of this specification, in a table, in a figure, etc.

[0019] 1. Storage cell FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view showing an example of a storage cell in the present embodiment. FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of a storage cell in the present embodiment. The storage cell 1 may have, for example, a height direction, a width direction, and a thickness direction. The height direction, the width direction, and the thickness direction are perpendicular to each other. The "height direction" is the H direction in FIG. 1 and the like. The "width direction" is the W direction in FIG. 1 and the like. The "thickness direction" is the D direction in FIG. 1 and the like.

"Height" indicates the dimension in the height direction. "Width" indicates the dimension in the width direction. "Thickness" indicates the dimension in the thickness direction or the thickness of the object.
[0020] The storage cell 1 includes a case 200, an electrolytic solution (not shown), and an electrode body 100. The electrolytic solution is a liquid electrolyte. The electrolytic solution may contain, for example, an organic solvent and a lithium salt.
[0021] 2. Electrode body The electrode body 100 may have, for example, a rectangular parallelepiped outer shape. The "first aspect ratio" indicates the ratio of the width to the height in the electrode body 100. The first aspect ratio may be any of, for example, 1 or more, 1.5 or more, 2 or more, 2.5 or more, 3 or more, 5 or more, or 10 or more. The first aspect ratio may be any of, for example, 10 or less, 5 or less, 3 or less, 2.5 or less, 2 or less, or 1.5 or less. The "second aspect ratio" indicates the ratio of the thickness to the height in the electrode body 100.

The second aspect ratio may be any of, for example, 1 or less, 0.5 or less, 0.3 or less, or 0.2 or less.
[0022] 2-1. First electrode, second electrode Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view showing an example of an electrode body in this embodiment. The electrode body 100 includes one or more first electrodes 110, one or more second electrodes 120, one or more separators 130, and an intervening film 140. In the thickness direction, the first electrodes 110 and the second electrodes 120 are stacked alternately. That is, the thickness direction is parallel to the stacking direction of the first electrodes 110 and the second electrodes 120. The number of first electrodes 110 and second electrodes 120 may be 2 or more, 5 or more, 10 or more, 50 or more, or 100 or more, respectively. The number of first electrodes 110 and second electrodes 120 may be 200 or less, 100 or less, 50 or less, 10 or less, or 5 or less, respectively.
[0023] The second electrode 120 has a different polarity from the first electrode 110. For example, the first electrode 110 may be the positive electrode and the second electrode 120 may be the negative electrode.
[0024] The first electrode 110 may include, for example, a first current collector 112 and a first active material layer 114. The first current collector 112 may include, for example, a metal foil. The metal foil may include, for example, Al, Cu, Ni, Ti, Fe, etc. The first active material layer 114 is disposed on the surface of the first current collector 112. The first active material layer 114 may be disposed on only one side of the first current collector 112. The first active material layer 114 may be disposed on both sides of the first current collector 112. The first active material layer 114 includes a positive electrode active material or a negative electrode active material. The positive electrode active material may include, for example, a lithium nickel composite oxide. The negative electrode active material may include, for example, graphite, SiO, Si, etc.
[0025] The second electrode 120 may include, for example, a second current collector 122 and a second active material layer 124. The second current collector 122 may include, for example, a metal foil. The second active material layer 124 is disposed on the surface of the second current collector 122. The second active material layer 124 may be disposed on only one side of the second current collector 122. The second active material layer 124 may be disposed on both sides of the second current collector 122. The second active material layer 124 includes a positive electrode active material or a negative electrode active material. The second active material layer 124 may have the same area as the first active material layer 114, or it may have a different area. For example, the area of the second active material layer 124 may be larger than the area of the first active material layer 114. The ratio of the area of the second active material layer 124 to the area of the first active material layer 114 may be, for example, 1.01 or more, 1.05 or more, or 1.1 or more. The ratio of the area of the second active material layer 124 to the area of the first active material layer 114 may be, for example, 1.1 or less, 1.05 or less, or 1.01 or less.
[0026] 2-2. Separator The separator 130 has electrical insulating properties. The separator 130 is porous. The separator 130 may include, for example, a microporous membrane made of polyolefin. The thickness of the separator 130 may be, for example, 5 to 50 μm, 5 to 30 μm, or 5 to 15 μm. The separator 130 separates the first electrode 110 from the second electrode 120. There may be, for example, two or more separators 130. For example, one separator 130 may be inserted between the first electrode 110 and the second electrode 120.
[0027] The separator 130 may be, for example, a single sheet. For example, the separator 130 may include a zigzag section 135. In the zigzag section 135, the separator 130 is folded in a zigzag pattern. The zigzag section 135 includes a flat section 131 and a folded-back section 132. In the flat section 131, the separator 130 extends in a flat shape. In the folded-back section 132, the separator 130 is folded back. The folded-back sections 132 are located at both ends in the height direction. The separator 130 is folded back so as to alternately sandwich the first electrode 110 or the second electrode 120. The flat section 131 sandwiches the first electrode 110 or the second electrode 120. The separator 130 may further include, for example, an outer peripheral section 136. The outer peripheral section 136 may be wound around the zigzag section 135. Furthermore, the separator 130 may be folded back at both ends in the width direction to form a zigzag section.
[0028] 3.Intervening membrane The intervening membrane 140 is interposed at least between the first electrode 110 and the separator 130. The intervening membrane 140 may also be interposed between the second electrode 120 and the separator 130. The intervening membrane 140 may be porous. The porosity of the intervening membrane 140 may be higher or lower than that of the separator 130. The average pore diameter of the intervening membrane 140 may be higher or lower than that of the separator 130.
[0029] The intervening film 140 may contain, for example, a heat-resistant material. The intervening film 140 may also contain, for example, inorganic particles and a binder. The intervening film 140 may contain, for example, 0.1 to 50% by mass fraction of binder and the remainder being inorganic particles. The mass fraction of the binder may be, for example, 1 to 30%, 1 to 10%, 1 to 5%, or 1 to 3%.
[0030] The inorganic particles may include, for example, at least one selected from the group consisting of alumina, boehmite, titania, magnesia, silica, and zirconia. The binder may include, for example, at least one selected from the group consisting of polyvinylidene fluoride, polyvinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene copolymer, styrene-butadiene rubber, carboxymethylcellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl butyral, polyethylene oxide, polyacrylic acid, acrylic resins, and methacrylic resins.
[0031] The intervening film 140 may be, for example, a self-supporting film. "Self-supporting film" refers to a film that maintains its shape by itself. The intervening film 140 may also be, for example, a non-self-supporting film. "Non-self-supporting film" refers to a film that maintains its shape by being supported by a support. For example, the intervening film 140 may be supported on at least one of the first electrode 110 and the separator 130. That is, the intervening film 140 may be formed on at least one of the first electrode 110 and the separator 130. For example, the intervening film 140 may be formed by coating the surface of the separator 130 with a heat-resistant material. For example, the intervening film 140 may be formed by coating the surface of the first electrode 110 with a heat-resistant material. For example, the intervening film 140 may be formed by coating the surfaces of both the first electrode 110 and the separator 130 with a heat-resistant material. If the separator 130 includes a zigzag portion 135, the intervening film 140 may be formed only on the flat portion 131, or it may be formed on both the flat portion 131 and the folded portion 132.
[0032] Figure 4 is a schematic plan view showing an example of an interlayer film. Figure 4 shows a plane perpendicular to the stacking direction (thickness direction). This plane is parallel to the height and width directions. The interlayer film 140 includes a first region 141 and a second region 142. The first region 141 includes the center 145 of the interlayer film 140. The "center" refers to the geometric center of the figure formed by the contour lines of the interlayer film 140. The first region 141 is, so to speak, a thicker portion. The first region 141 can inhibit the movement of the electrolyte. It is expected that the unevenness in the amount of electrolyte held will be reduced by the first region 141 inhibiting the movement of the electrolyte.
[0033] The first region 141 may, for example, extend in the width direction. The ratio of the width of the intervening film 140 to the width of the electrode body 100 may be, for example, 0.25 or more, 0.5 or more, or 0.75 or more. The ratio of the width of the intervening film 140 to the width of the electrode body 100 may be, for example, 0.75 or less, 0.5 or less, or 0.25 or less. The ratio of the height of the intervening film 140 to the height of the electrode body 100 may be, for example, 0.01 or more, 0.05 or more, 0.1 or more, 0.2 or more, or 0.3 or more. The ratio of the height of the intervening film 140 to the height of the electrode body 100 may be, for example, 0.3 or less, 0.2 or less, 0.1 or less, 0.05 or less, or 0.01 or less.
[0034] The second region 142 surrounds the first region 141. The second region 142 may include, for example, a third region 143 and a fourth region 144. In the height direction, the first region 141 is located between the third region 143 and the fourth region 144. The third region 143 is, so to speak, a thin-walled portion. Electrolyte can be stored in the third region 143.
[0035] For example, the third region 143 may be located vertically above the first region 141. When the height direction is parallel to the vertical direction, the region vertically above the first region 141 tends to have the lowest electrolyte retention rate. For example, this tendency may become more pronounced as the first aspect ratio of the electrode body 100 increases. It is expected that the unevenness in the electrolyte retention rate will be reduced because this region is a thin-walled section (electrolyte storage section).
[0036] The fourth region 144 may be adjacent to the third region 143. The fourth region 144 may be adjacent to the first region 141. In the width direction, the fourth region 144 may be located on both sides of the third region 143. In the width direction, the fourth region 144 may be located on both sides of the first region 141. The fourth region 144 may be located vertically below the first region 141.
[0037] Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view of AA in Figure 4. Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view of BB in Figure 4. Figure 7 is a cross-sectional view of CC in Figure 4. The intervening film 140 satisfies the relationship of equation (1) below. T2 <T1 (1) T1 indicates the thickness of the intercalation film 140 in the first region 141. T2 indicates the thickness of the intercalation film 140 in the second region 142.
[0038] The ratio of T1 to T2 (T1 / T2) can be any of the following: 1.01 or greater, 1.05 or greater, 1.1 or greater, 1.2 or greater, 1.5 or greater, or 2 or greater. The ratio (T1 / T2) can be any of the following: 3 or less, 2 or less, 1.5 or less, 1.2 or less, 1.1 or less, or 1.05 or less.
[0039] The intervening film 140 may satisfy, for example, the relationship shown in equation (2) below. T3 <T4 (2) T3 indicates the thickness of the intervening film 140 in the third region 143. T4 indicates the thickness of the intervening film 140 in the fourth region 144.
[0040] The ratio of T3 to T4 (T3 / T4) can be any of the following: 0.99 or less, 0.95 or less, 0.90 or less, 0.75 or less, or 0.5 or less. The ratio (T3 / T4) can be any of the following: 0.3 or more, 0.5 or more, 0.75 or more, 0.90 or more, or 0.95 or more.
[0041] Furthermore, when equation (2) above is satisfied, equation (2)' below is also satisfied. T3 <T4≦T2 (2)’
[0042] The intervening membrane 140 may satisfy, for example, the relationships shown in equations (3) and (4) below. 10 μm ≤ T1 ≤ 20 μm (3) T3 ≤ 3 μm (4)
[0043] T1 may be, for example, 11 μm or more, 12.5 μm or more, 15 μm or more, 17.5 μm or more, or 19 μm or more. T1 may be 17.5 μm or less, 15 μm or less, 12.5 μm or less, or 11 μm or less.
[0044] T3 may be any of the following: 2.5 μm or less, 2 μm or less, 1.5 μm or less, 1 μm or less, 0.5 μm or less, or 0.1 μm or less. T3 may be any of the following: 0.1 μm or more, 0.5 μm or more, 1 μm or more, 1.5 μm or more, 2 μm or more, or 2.5 μm or more.
[0045] T4(T2) can be any of the following: greater than 3 μm, 3.5 μm or more, 4 μm or more, 5 μm or more, 6 μm or more, 7 μm or more, 8 μm or more, or 9 μm or more. T4(T2) can be any of the following: less than 10 μm, 9 μm or less, 8 μm or less, 7 μm or less, 6 μm or less, 5 μm or less, 4 μm or less, or 3.5 μm or less.
[0046] 4. Case Case 200 houses the electrolyte and electrode body 100. Case 200 may be sealed. Case 200 may include, for example, a can 210 and a lid 220. Can 210 has an opening. The opening is in the height direction. The opening may be, for example, vertically upward. Can 210 may be made of, for example, metal. Can 210 may contain, for example, Al. Can 210 may include, for example, a bottom wall 212 and a peripheral wall 214. The bottom wall 212 may be, for example, flat. The planar shape of the bottom wall 212 may be, for example, rectangular. The peripheral wall 214 rises from the bottom wall 212. The peripheral wall 214 may be, for example, rectangular tubular. The width of the peripheral wall 214 may be greater than the thickness of the peripheral wall 214. The height of the peripheral wall 214 may be greater than the thickness of the peripheral wall 214. Here, "thickness of the peripheral wall 214" refers to the external dimension of the case 200 in the thickness direction.
[0047] The lid 220 seals the opening of the can 210. The lid 220 may be welded to the peripheral wall 214. The lid 220 may be, for example, a flat plate. The lid 220 may be, for example, made of metal. The lid 220 may contain, for example, Al. The lid 220 may include, for example, a pressure relief valve 222 and a sealing member 224.
[0048] The pressure relief valve 222 may be located, for example, near the center of the lid 220. The pressure relief valve 222 releases the internal pressure of the case 200. When the internal pressure exceeds a set value, the pressure relief valve 222 may be opened. The sealing member 224 seals the liquid injection port 221. Electrolyte can be injected through the liquid injection port 221.

[0051] The connecting member 400 may include, for example, a current collector tab 410, a sub-tab 420, and a connecting pin 430. The current collector tab 410 includes a lateral portion 412 and an upper portion 414. The lateral portion 412 is located laterally to the electrode body 100 in the width direction. The upper portion 414 is located above the electrode body 100. The upper portion 414 extends inward in the width direction from the upper end of the lateral portion 412.
[0052] The sub-tab 420 connects multiple electrode tabs to the current collection tab 410. The sub-tab 420 may include a first end 422 and a second end 424. The first end 422 is connected to the multiple electrode tabs. The second end 424 is connected to the lateral portion 412.
[0053] The connecting pin 430 connects the current collection tab 410 to the external terminal 300. The connecting pin 430 also connects the upper portion 414 to the external terminal 300. For example, the lower end of the connecting pin 430 may be inserted through a through hole provided in the upper portion 414.
[0054] 5. Insulating material The insulating member 500 insulates the case 200 from the connecting member 400. The insulating member 500 may include, for example, a first part 510, a second part 520, a third part 530, and a fourth part 540.
[0055] Part 1 510 is fixed to the upper surface of the lid 220. Part 1 510 is positioned between the lid 220 and the external terminal 300. Part 2 520 is fixed to the lower surface of the lid 220. Part 2 520 is positioned between the lid 220 and the upper part 414. Part 2 520 is positioned between the lid 220 and the lower part of the connecting pin 430. Part 3 530 is positioned between the connecting pin 430 and the lid 220. Part 3 530 is cylindrical. Part 3 530 surrounds the connecting pin 430. Parts 1 510, 2 520, and 3 530 are provided with through holes. The connecting pin 430 is inserted through the through holes.
[0056] The fourth part 540 is plate-shaped. It is fixed to the lower surface of the upper part 414. The fourth part 540 is positioned above the electrode body 100. A through hole is provided in the fourth part 540 below the pressure relief valve 222. A through hole is also provided in the fourth part 540 below the liquid injection port 221.
