[0094] In some embodiments, 1.6S1≤S2≤4S1 is satisfied. Such a setting is beneficial to suppressing deformation of the electrode assembly 20 after bending and reducing the risk of clogging of the diaphragm 22, thereby reducing internal resistance and improving the electrochemical performance of the secondary battery 100.

[0095] As an illustrative example, S2 may specifically be 1.6S1, 2S1, 2.4S1, 2.8S1, 3.2S1, 3.6S1 or 4S1.

[0096] In some embodiments, 6N / m≤S1<9.6N / m is satisfied. Such a setting is beneficial to suppressing deformation of the electrode assembly 20 after bending and reducing the risk of clogging of the diaphragm 22, thereby reducing internal resistance and improving the electrochemical performance of the secondary battery 100.

[0097] As an illustrative example, S1 can specifically be 6 N / m, 6.2 N / m, 6.6 N / m, 6.8 N / m, 7 N / m, 7.2 N / m, 7.6 N / m, 7.8 N / m, 8 N / m, 8.2 N / m, 8.6 N / m, 8.8 N / m, 9 N / m or 9.5 N / m.

[0098] In some embodiments, 9.6 N / m≤S2≤15 N / m is satisfied. Such a setting is beneficial to suppressing deformation of the electrode assembly 20 after bending and reducing the risk of clogging of the diaphragm 22, thereby reducing internal resistance and improving the electrochemical performance of the secondary battery 100.

[0099] As an illustrative example, S2 can specifically be 9.6 N / m, 10 N / m, 10.2 N / m, 10.6 N / m, 10.8 N / m, 11 N / m, 11.2 N / m, 11.6 N / m, 11.8 N / m, 12 N / m, 12.2 N / m, 12.6 N / m, 12.8 N / m, 13 N / m, 13.2 N / m, 13.6 N / m, 13.8 N / m, 14 N / m, 14.2 N / m, 14.6 N / m, 14.8 N / m or 15 N / m.

[0100] In some embodiments, the first adhesive and the second adhesive may be of the same type, and the content of the second adhesive in the second adhesive layer 223 may be greater than the content of the first adhesive in the first adhesive layer 221, so that the peeling strength S2 between the second adhesive layer 223 and the cathode electrode 212 is greater than the peeling strength S1 between the first adhesive layer 221 and the anode electrode 211.

[0101] The first adhesive may be selected from one or a combination of polyvinylidene fluoride, a copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene, polyamide, polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylate, polyacrylic acid, polyacrylic acid salt, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl ether, polymethyl methacrylate, polytetrafluoroethylene, and polyhexafluoropropylene. The second adhesive may be selected from one or a combination of polyvinylidene fluoride, a copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene, polyamide, polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylate, polyacrylic acid, polyacrylic acid salt, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl ether, polymethyl methacrylate, polytetrafluoroethylene, and polyhexafluoropropylene.

[0102] Taking polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) as the first adhesive as an example, since the PVDF crystal region belongs to the semi-definite region and has a clear melting peak at 140°C-150°C, the present application can estimate the PVDF content based on the PVDF melting peak. Specifically, the PVDF content can be determined using the following steps:

[0103] 1) Separate the first adhesive layer 221 from the separator 22 to obtain agglomerate powder with a mass of M.

[0104] 2) Using a Mettler differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), the melting peak of the agglomerate powder with a mass of M was measured, and the heat E absorbed by the melting of the PVDF was obtained by integrating the melting peak at 140° C.-150° C.

[0105] 3) Calculate the mass M1 of PVDF, M1 = E / (Hm×η), where Hm is the melting enthalpy of PVDF when it is completely crystallized, 104.7 J / g, and η is the crystallinity of PVDF, 49.5%.

[0106] When the second adhesive is PVDF, the same method can be used to determine the content. It is understood that when each adhesive layer uses adhesives made of other materials, the above content determination method can also be set according to the properties of the adhesive.

[0107] In some embodiments, referring to FIG4 , along a first direction X, the anode electrode sheet 211, the separator 22, and the cathode electrode sheet 212 are sequentially stacked to form a laminate structure, and the outermost layer of the electrode assembly 20 is the cathode electrode sheet 212. The first adhesive layer 221 and the second adhesive layer 223 are sequentially disposed along the first direction X.

[0108] Research has found that in a curved electrode assembly 20, the electrode piece 21 near the protruding side of the electrode assembly 20 is subjected to greater stress and is more prone to deformation and rebound. When the outermost side of the two opposite sides of the electrode assembly 20 along the first direction X is the cathode electrode piece 212, the outermost cathode electrode piece 212 on the side of the electrode assembly 20 protruding outward in the first direction X is also more prone to rebound. By setting the outermost layer as the cathode electrode piece 212, the outermost cathode electrode piece 212 can be bonded to the second adhesive layer 223, which helps to suppress the rebound of the outermost cathode electrode piece 212 and maintain the shape of the bent electrode assembly 20. This helps solve the deformation problems such as the reduction of the overall curvature and equalization of the secondary battery 100, and can improve the performance and reliability of the secondary battery 100.

[0109] In some embodiments, the first adhesive layer 221 includes polyvinylidene fluoride, and the content of polyvinylidene fluoride in the first adhesive layer 221 is 3 mg / 5000 mm 2 -4mg / 5000mm 2 The content of polyvinylidene fluoride in the first adhesive layer 221 is 60 wt % to 80 wt %.

[0110] In this embodiment, the specific configuration of the first adhesive layer 221 ensures that the peel strength between the first adhesive layer 221 of the diaphragm 22 and the electrode piece 21 is above 6 N / m, which is beneficial for suppressing deformation of the electrode assembly 20 after bending.

[0111] It should be noted that the unit "mg / mm 2 " is the dimension of coating weight. The coating weight of polyvinylidene fluoride in the first adhesive layer 221 is 3 mg / 5000 mm 2 -4mg / 5000mm 2 Refers to the diaphragm 22 every 5000mm 2The coating weight of the area coated polyvinylidene fluoride is 3mg-4mg.

[0112] The unit "wt%" represents mass percentage (%). A polyvinylidene fluoride content of 60 wt% to 80 wt% in the first adhesive layer 221 means that the polyvinylidene fluoride in the first adhesive layer 221 of the separator 22 accounts for 60% to 80% of the mass of the entire first adhesive layer 221. The specific conversion method is: mass percentage wt% = (mass of polyvinylidene fluoride / mass of first adhesive layer 221) × 100%.

[0113] In some embodiments, the second adhesive layer 223 includes acrylate, and the content of acrylate in the second adhesive layer 223 is 0.7 mg / 5000 mm 2 -1.1mg / 5000mm 2 The content of acrylate in the second adhesive layer 223 is 85 wt % to 95 wt %.

[0114] In this embodiment, the specific configuration of the second adhesive layer 223 enables the peel strength between the second adhesive layer 223 of the diaphragm 22 and the electrode piece 21 to be above 10 N / m, which is beneficial for suppressing deformation of the electrode assembly after bending.

[0115] It should be noted that the peel strength between the diaphragm 22 and the electrode 21 is tested as follows:

[0116] According to GB / T 2792-2014 "Test method for peel strength of adhesive tape", a high-speed rail tensile tester is used to test the peel strength between the diaphragm and the electrode (the peel strength between the diaphragm 22 and the electrode 21 is tested as an example in the embodiment of this application). The test process is as follows: discharge the lithium-ion battery to 0V, then disassemble the lithium-ion battery, remove the diaphragm 22 and the electrode 21 bonded thereto as a whole, and wipe the electrolyte on the surface with dust-free paper. Then cut into 20mm×60mm strip specimens. Along the length direction of the specimen, the side of the electrode assembly 20 in the specimen is adhered to the steel plate with double-sided tape (Nitto 5000NS), and the adhesion length is not less than 40mm. Fix the steel plate at the corresponding position of the high-speed rail tensile testing machine, pull up the other end of the electrode 21 of the sample that is not adhered to the diaphragm 22, and place the sample in the chuck and clamp it. The angle between the pulled-up part of the sample and the steel plate in space is 180°. The chuck pulls the sample at a speed of 5±0.2mm / s. The average tensile force in the stable area is finally measured and recorded as the peel strength between the diaphragm 22 and the electrode 21, recorded as S, and the unit is N / m.

[0117] Among them, when the diaphragm 22 and the electrode 21 in the sample are bonded by the first adhesive layer 221, the peel strength S1 between the first adhesive layer 221 and the electrode 21 is measured; when the diaphragm 22 and the electrode 21 in the sample are bonded by the second adhesive layer 223, the peel strength S2 between the second adhesive layer 223 and the electrode 21 is measured.

[0118] In order to verify the effect of the peel strength between the electrode 21 and the separator 22 on the arc reduction and equalization deformation of the secondary battery 100, the following tests were conducted:

[0119] A comparative charge-discharge test was conducted on the secondary battery 100. The secondary battery 100 was placed in a constant temperature environment at 25°C and charged at a constant current rate of 0.5C (1C represents a current that fully charges the battery in 1 hour) to the full charge voltage. The voltage was then constant to 0.05C. The battery was then discharged to 3.0V at a constant current rate of 0.5C. This constituted one charge-discharge cycle. After 800 charge-discharge cycles, the rate of change in the arc radius of the secondary battery 100 and the capacity retention of the secondary battery 100 were measured.

[0120] The capacity retention rate is calculated as follows: capacity retention rate = discharge capacity in the Nth cycle in mAh / discharge capacity in the initial first cycle in mAh.

[0121] The arc radius change rate of the secondary battery 100 is obtained as follows:

[0122] To obtain an initial arc radius, when the secondary battery 100 is not subjected to a cycle test, a 3D profilometer is used to scan the 3D structure of the surface of the secondary battery 100 . The scanned surface is then averaged to obtain an arc line. Three points on the arc line are fitted to obtain a standard circular arc line, and then the arc radius a is read.

[0123] To obtain the post-cycle arc radius, after the secondary battery 100 completes the cycle charge and discharge test, a 3D profilometer is used to scan the 3D structure of the surface of the secondary battery 100. The scanned surface is then averaged to obtain an arc line. Three points are taken on the arc line for fitting to obtain a standard circular arc line, and then the arc radius b is read.

[0124] The arc radius change rate of the electrode unit is obtained as (ba) / a.

[0125] The principle of point selection is as follows: the arc obtained by point fitting should coincide with the arc obtained by surface averaging as much as possible and points near the endpoints should be excluded.

[0126] It should be noted that when the risk of pore blocking of the separator 22 is reduced, the capacity retention rate of the secondary battery 100 is high, and the electrochemical performance of the secondary battery 100 is better.

[0127] The arc radius change rate and capacity retention rate of all tested secondary batteries 100 are counted. If the arc radius change rate is less than 9% and the capacity retention rate is greater than 85%, it is determined to have passed the test; otherwise, it is determined to have failed the test.

[0128] The following describes the specific implementation of the secondary battery 100 in the examples and comparative examples.

[0129] Examples and Comparative Examples

[0130] A secondary battery, the assembly process is as follows:

[0131] (1) Preparation of the anode plate 211: The anode active material artificial graphite, conductive carbon black (Super P), and styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) are mixed in a weight ratio of 96:1.5:2.5, deionized water is added as a solvent, and a slurry with a weight percentage of 70 wt% is prepared and stirred evenly. The slurry is evenly coated on one surface of an anode current collector copper foil with a thickness of 10 μm, leaving an empty foil area at the edge of the copper foil, and dried at 110°C to obtain an anode plate 211 with a coating thickness of 150 μm and coated on one side with an anode active material layer. The above steps are repeated on the other surface of the anode plate 211 to obtain an anode plate 211 with a double-sided coating of an anode active material layer. The anode plate 211 is then placed in a rolling machine for embossing, so that a plurality of first protrusions 2113 are formed on the surface of one side of the anode plate 211, and a plurality of first concave portions 2114 are formed on the surface of the other side of the anode plate 211. Then, the excess empty foil area is removed by laser die-cutting to obtain an anode tab.

[0132] (2) Preparation of cathode electrode 212: The cathode active material lithium cobalt oxide (Li CoO2), conductive carbon black (Super P), and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) are mixed in a weight ratio of 97.5:1.0:1.5, and N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) is added as a solvent to prepare a slurry with a solid content of 75wt%, and stirred evenly. The slurry is evenly coated on one surface of a cathode current collector aluminum foil with a thickness of 12μm, leaving an empty foil area at the edge of the aluminum foil, and then dried at 90°C to obtain a cathode electrode 212 with a cathode active material layer thickness of 100μm. The single-sided coated cathode electrode 212 is subsequently used as the first outer electrode. When preparing another double-sided coated first electrode (i.e., the first inner electrode), repeat the above coating steps on the other surface of the aluminum foil. Then, the excess empty foil area is removed by laser die-cutting to obtain a cathode tab.

[0133] (3) Preparation of electrolyte: In a dry argon atmosphere, ethylene carbonate (EC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) and diethyl carbonate (DEC) were first mixed in a mass ratio of EC:EMC:DEC = 30:50:20 to form a basic organic solvent. Then, lithium salt lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) was added to the basic organic solvent to dissolve and mix evenly to obtain an electrolyte with a lithium salt concentration of 1.15 mol / L.

[0134] (4) Preparation of the diaphragm 22: The diaphragm 22 has a three-layer structure, which includes a first adhesive layer 221, a base layer 222, and a second adhesive layer 223. The base layer 222 is made of polyethylene (PE). The first adhesive layer 221 includes a first adhesive, and the second adhesive layer 223 includes a second adhesive. The first adhesive layer 221 and the second adhesive layer 223 also contain inorganic ceramic particles Al2O3.

[0135] (5) Preparation of electrode assembly 20: The cathode electrode 212, the diaphragm 22 and the anode electrode 211 are stacked and the stacked structure is hot-pressed on a flat plate for 10 seconds at a temperature of 80°C and a pressure of 1.5 MPa to form the electrode assembly 20 for use.

[0136] (6) Assembly of the electrode assembly 20: Place the aluminum-plastic film with the cavities formed in it into an assembly fixture, with the cavities facing upward. Place the electrode assembly 20 in the cavities and apply external force to tighten. Then, place another aluminum-plastic film with the cavities formed in it, with the cavities facing downward, over the electrode assembly 20. Heat-seal the two aluminum-plastic films around their edges using a hot press to obtain the assembled electrode assembly 20.

[0137] (7) Liquid injection and packaging: The electrolyte is injected into the assembled electrode assembly 20, and the secondary battery 100 is manufactured through processes such as vacuum packaging, static standing, hot pressing, and shaping.

[0138] The main parameter control and test results of each embodiment and comparative example are shown in Table 1:

[0139] Table 1:

[0140] Among them, PVDF is polyvinylidene fluoride, PDDA is acrylate, PVDF-HFP is a copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene, and PMMA is polymethyl methacrylate.

[0141] According to Table 1 above, compared with Comparative Examples 1-4, Example 1 satisfies S1<S2, which is beneficial to suppressing the deformation of the secondary battery 100 after bending, and is beneficial to solving the deformation problems such as curvature reduction and equalization of the secondary battery 100, and is also beneficial to improving the capacity retention rate of the secondary battery 100 and improving the chemical properties of the secondary battery 100.

[0142] It can be seen from Table 1 above that, compared with Comparative Example 1 and Example 6, when the condition of 6N / m≤S1<9.6N / m is satisfied in Examples 1-5, it is beneficial to suppress the deformation of the electrode assembly after bending, and is beneficial to reduce the risk of pore blockage in the diaphragm in the first part, thereby reducing the internal resistance and improving the electrochemical performance of the secondary battery.

[0143] As can be seen from Table 1 above, compared with Example 7 and Example 13, when the condition of 9.6 N / m ≤ S2 ≤ 15 N / m is satisfied in Example 2 and Examples 8-12, it is beneficial to suppress the deformation of the secondary battery 100 after bending, and to solve the deformation problems such as the reduction of the curvature and equalization of the secondary battery 100. It is also beneficial to improve the capacity retention rate of the secondary battery 100 and improve the chemical properties of the secondary battery 100.

[0144] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG5 , the surface of the anode electrode sheet 211 is provided with a plurality of first protrusions 2113. The first protrusions 2113 can disperse the stress of the bent anode electrode sheet 211, suppressing deformation and rebound of the anode electrode sheet 211. This helps maintain the shape of the bent anode electrode sheet 211 and helps address deformation issues such as reduction and equalization of the overall curvature of the electrode assembly 20. When the overall curvature of the electrode assembly 20 remains substantially unchanged, the secondary battery 100 will not significantly deform, thereby facilitating the resolution of deformation issues such as reduction and equalization of the secondary battery 100.

[0145] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 5 , a plurality of first recesses 2114 are defined along the first direction X on a surface of the anode electrode 211 facing away from the plurality of first protrusions 2113 .

[0146] Both the first protrusion 2113 and the first recess 2114 can disperse the stress of the curved anode plate 211, which is further beneficial to suppressing the deformation and rebound of the anode plate 211, thereby further beneficial to solving the overall curvature reduction and equalization deformation problems of the electrode assembly 20 and even the entire secondary battery 100.

[0147] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 5 , the orthographic projection of the first convex portion 2113 and the orthographic projection of the first concave portion 2114 overlap, which helps to further enhance the effect of suppressing deformation and rebound of the anode electrode 211 .

[0148] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of a first convex portion 2113 may overlap with the orthographic projection of a first concave portion 2114 , or the orthographic projection of each first convex portion 2113 may overlap with the orthographic projection of a first concave portion 2114 .

[0149] When the orthographic projection of a first convex portion 2113 and the orthographic projection of a first concave portion 2114 overlap along the first direction X, it is beneficial to process the first convex portion 2113 and the first concave portion 2114 whose orthographic projections overlap together, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the first convex portion 2113 and the first concave portion 2114.

[0150] In other embodiments, the orthographic projection of one first convex portion 2113 may overlap with the orthographic projections of multiple first concave portions 2114 , or the orthographic projection of one first concave portion 2114 may overlap with the orthographic projections of multiple first convex portions 2113 .

[0151] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 6 , a plurality of second protrusions 2123 are provided on the surface of the cathode electrode 212 . The second protrusions 2123 can disperse the stress of the bent cathode electrode 212 and suppress deformation and rebound of the cathode electrode 212 .

[0152] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 6 , a plurality of second recesses 2124 are defined on a surface of the cathode electrode 212 facing away from the plurality of second protrusions 2123 .

[0153] The second convex portion 2123 and the second concave portion 2124 can both disperse the stress of the bent cathode electrode piece 212 , which is further beneficial to suppressing the deformation and rebound of the cathode electrode piece 212 .

[0154] In some embodiments, along the first direction X, the orthographic projection of each second protrusion 2123 and the orthographic projection of a second recess 2124 overlap, which helps to further enhance the effect of suppressing deformation and rebound of the cathode electrode 212 .

[0155] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of a second convex portion 2123 and the orthographic projection of a second concave portion 2124 may overlap; or the orthographic projection of each second convex portion 2123 and the orthographic projection of a second concave portion 2124 may overlap.

[0156] When the orthographic projection of a second convex portion 2123 and the orthographic projection of a second concave portion 2124 overlap along the first direction X, it is beneficial to process the second convex portion 2123 and the second concave portion 2124 with overlapping orthographic projections together, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the second convex portion 2123 and the second concave portion 2124.

[0157] In other embodiments, the orthographic projection of one second convex portion 2123 may overlap with the orthographic projections of multiple second concave portions 2124 , or the orthographic projection of one second concave portion 2124 may overlap with the orthographic projections of multiple second convex portions 2123 .

[0158] It is also beneficial to process the second convex portion 2123 and the second concave portion 2124 at the same time, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the second convex portion 2123 and the second concave portion 2124.

[0159] In some embodiments, the anode electrode sheet 211 is formed with a first protrusion 2113 and a first concave portion 2114 by an embossing process.

[0160] In some embodiments, the cathode electrode 212 is formed with a second protrusion 2123 and a second concave portion 2124 by an embossing process.

[0161] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 7 to FIG. 9 , the shape of the first protrusion 2113 is one of a dot-shaped protrusion, a mesh-shaped protrusion, and a striped protrusion.

[0162] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 10 to FIG. 12 , the second protrusion 2123 is in the shape of a dot-shaped protrusion, a mesh-shaped protrusion, and a striped protrusion.

[0163] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 7 to 12, the shape of the first protrusion 2113 is different from the shape of the second protrusion 2123, which is beneficial to increase the friction between the cathode electrode 212, the anode electrode 211 and the diaphragm 22, thereby suppressing the risk of slippage between the cathode electrode 212, the anode electrode 211 and the diaphragm 22, thereby improving the reliability of the electrode assembly 20.

[0164] In some embodiments, the shape of the first protrusion 2113 matches the shape of the second protrusion 2123, which is conducive to allowing the first protrusion 2113 to be at least partially embedded in the second recess 2124, or to allowing the second protrusion 2123 to be at least partially embedded in the first recess 2114, thereby helping to further increase the friction between the cathode electrode 212, the anode electrode 211 and the diaphragm 22, thereby suppressing the risk of slippage between the cathode electrode 212, the anode electrode 211 and the diaphragm 22, and thereby improving the reliability of the electrode assembly 20.

[0165] The anode plate 211 and the first protrusion 2113 on the anode plate 211 are described below. The specific configuration of the cathode plate 212, the specific configuration of the second protrusion 2123 and the beneficial effects can all be referred to the specific implementation methods and beneficial effects of the anode plate 211 and the first protrusion 2113 described below, and will not be repeated here.

[0166] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 7 , when the anode electrode sheet 211 is flattened and viewed along the first direction X, the sum of the areas of the plurality of first protrusions 2113 is M1, and the area of ​​the anode electrode sheet 211 is M2, satisfying the condition: 0.06M2≤M1<M2. Meeting this condition helps improve the overall stress dispersion effect of the plurality of first protrusions 2113 on the anode electrode sheet 211, thereby further suppressing deformation of the first electrode sheet 211 after bending.

[0167] In some embodiments, referring to FIG5 , the thickness of the anode electrode sheet 211 corresponding to the first coating area 211c is T1, and the height of the first protrusion 2113 is H1, satisfying H1≤0.1T1. When this condition is met, it is beneficial to improve the stress dispersion effect of the first protrusion 2113 on the anode electrode sheet 211, thereby further suppressing the deformation of the anode electrode sheet 211 after bending. In the embodiment where the first protrusion 2113 is pressed out by an embossing roller, meeting this condition is also beneficial to reducing the risk of damage to the anode electrode sheet 211 caused by excessive pressure applied by the embossing roller, or reducing the risk of damage to the anode electrode sheet 211 caused by excessive local deformation.

[0168] The thickness T1 of the anode electrode 211 corresponding to the first coating region 211c is the sum of the thicknesses of the first current collector 2111, the first active material layer 2112, and the second active material layer 2122 on the second surface 211b. The height H1 of the first protrusion 2113 is the height of the largest of the plurality of first protrusions 2113.

[0169] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 7 , when the anode plate 211 is flattened, the anode plate 211 has a first boundary line 21 a and a second boundary line 21 b relatively arranged along the second direction Y, and a third boundary line 21 c and a fourth boundary line 21 d relatively arranged along the third direction Z. The first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other.

[0170] The first direction X is parallel to the thickness direction of the anode plate 211 , one of the second direction Y and the third direction Z is parallel to the width direction of the anode plate 211 , and the other is parallel to the length direction of the anode plate 211 .

[0171] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 7 , the minimum distance between the plurality of first protrusions 2113 and the first boundary line 21a is L1, and the minimum distance between the plurality of first protrusions 2113 and the second boundary line 21b is L2, 1mm≤L1≤7mm, 1mm≤L2≤7mm, which is beneficial to reducing the risk of the embossing roller pressing the anode electrode 211 at the cutting position in the second direction Y, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the anode electrode 211.

[0172] As an example, L1 may be 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, or 7 mm, and L2 may be 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, or 7 mm.

[0173] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 7 , the minimum distance between the plurality of first protrusions 2113 and the third boundary line 21c is L3, and the minimum distance between the plurality of first protrusions 2113 and the fourth boundary line 21d is L4, 1mm≤L3≤7mm, 1mm≤L4≤7mm, which is beneficial to reducing the risk of the embossing roller pressing the cutting position of the anode plate 211 in the third direction Z, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the anode plate 211.

[0174] As an example, L3 may be 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, or 7 mm. L4 may be 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, or 7 mm.

[0175] In some embodiments, referring to FIG7 , the distance F1 between any two adjacent first protrusions 2113 satisfies 1.5 mm ≤ F1 ≤ 3 mm. This condition helps disperse the stress on the anode electrode 211, further suppresses deformation of the anode electrode 211 after bending, and reduces the risk of black spots on the electrode assembly 20.

[0176] As an illustrative example, F1 may specifically be 1.5 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.9 mm, 2 mm, 2.3 mm, 2.5 mm, 2.7 mm, 2.9 mm or 3 mm.

[0177] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 7 , the width of the first protrusion 2113 is R1 when viewed along the first direction X, satisfying R1 ≥ 1 mm. When R1 ≥ 1 mm is satisfied, the first protrusion 2113 can effectively disperse the stress on the anode plate 211, thereby further suppressing deformation of the anode plate 211 after bending, and preventing black spots from forming on the electrode assembly 20.
