[0032] The battery cell 100 according to an embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to FIG. 1 to FIG. 4 .

[0033] According to the battery cell 100 of the embodiment of the first aspect of the present application, it includes a first pole core 11, a second pole core 12, a lead-out tab 13, a first pole tab 14, a second pole tab 15 and a support member 20, one end of the first pole tab 14 is connected to the end of the first pole core 11, and the other end of the first pole tab 14 is connected to the lead-out tab 13; one end of the second pole tab 15 is connected to the end of the second pole core 12, and the other end of the second pole tab 15 is connected to the lead-out tab 13, and the first pole tab 14 and the second pole tab 15 are connected on the same side of the lead-out tab 13.

[0034] Among them, the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12 can be fitted together, for example, the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12 can be flipped toward the side away from the lead-out piece 13 and fitted together; the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12 can both be flipped 90° in a direction close to each other and fitted together.

[0035] When the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12 are flipped toward each other, the first pole core 11 can drive the first pole tab 14 to fold, and the second pole core 12 can drive the second pole tab 15 to fold. For example, the first pole tab 14 and the second pole tab 15 can be made of aluminum, which is a relatively soft material. When the first pole core 11 is flipped, the first pole tab 14 can be folded, and when the second pole core 12 is flipped, the second pole tab 15 can be folded.

[0036] After the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12 are bonded together, an accommodating space 16 can be constructed between the first pole tab 14, the second pole tab 15, the lead-out piece 13, the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12. The support member 20 is located in the accommodating space 16 and is used to support the first pole tab 14 and the second pole tab 15. This can prevent the first pole tab 14 and the second pole tab 15 from being compressed into the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12, thereby improving the safety of the battery cell 100.

[0037] The first tab 14 can be connected to the lead tab 13 by welding, and a weld is formed at the weld connection between the first tab 14 and the lead tab 13, which also forms welding residue. The second tab 15 can be connected to the lead tab 13 by welding, and a weld is formed at the weld connection between the second tab 15 and the lead tab 13, which also forms welding residue. The support member 20 is located in the accommodation space 16 and can protect the weld and prevent welding residue from falling.

[0038] According to the battery cell 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12 are fitted together to construct a receiving space 16 between the first pole tab 14, the second pole tab 15, the lead-out piece 13, the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12. The support member 20 is located in the receiving space 16. The support member 20 can support the first pole tab 14 and the second pole tab 15 on the basis of protecting the weld and preventing welding residues from falling, and can prevent the first pole tab 14 and the second pole tab 15 from being compressed into the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12, thereby improving the safety of the battery cell 100.

[0039] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to FIG1 and FIG3 , the surface of the first tab 14 facing the accommodating space 16 has a first inclined surface 1411. Specifically, the surface of the first tab 14 connected to the first pole core 11 has the first inclined surface 1411, and the first inclined surface 1411 extends obliquely in the direction from the lead tab 13 toward the first pole core 11. The surface of the second tab 15 facing the accommodating space 16 has a second inclined surface 1511. Specifically, the surface of the second tab 15 connected to the second pole core 12 has the second inclined surface 1511, and the second inclined surface 1511 extends obliquely in the direction from the lead tab 13 toward the second pole core 12. The first inclined surface 1411 and the second inclined surface 1511 are symmetrical about the mating plane of the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12, which can increase the stability of the accommodating space 16.

[0040] For example, in a projection plane perpendicular to the bonding surface, the projection shape of the accommodating space 16 is an isosceles triangle, which can further increase the stability of the accommodating space 16 .

[0041] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 and 3, the first pole tab 14 includes a first connecting portion 141 and a first bending portion 142. The first connecting portion 141 is connected to the end of the first pole core 11, one end of the first bending portion 142 is connected to the first connecting portion 141, and the other end of the first bending portion 142 is connected to the lead-out piece 13. The first connecting portion 141 has a first inclined surface 1411.

[0042] The second pole tab 15 includes a second connecting portion 151 and a second bent portion 152. The second connecting portion 151 is connected to the end of the second pole core 12. One end of the second bent portion 152 is connected to the second connecting portion 151, and the other end of the second bent portion 152 is connected to the lead-out piece 13. The second connecting portion 151 has a second inclined surface 1511.

[0043] The other end of the first bending portion 142 and the other end of the second bending portion 152 are both bent in a direction approaching each other; wherein the first bending portion 142 and the second bending portion 152 are both parallel to the end face of the first pole core 11 or the end face of the second pole core 12, so as to form an isosceles triangle structure between the first connecting portion 141, the first bending portion 142, the second connecting portion 151 and the second bending portion 152, further increasing the stability of the accommodating space 16.

[0044] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 and 3, the bend between the first connecting portion 141 and the first bending portion 142 has a first transition slope 143 to increase the space between the first connecting portion 141 and the first bending portion 142, thereby increasing the stability of the bend. The bend between the second connecting portion 151 and the second bending portion 152 has a second transition slope 153 to increase the space between the second connecting portion 151 and the second bending portion 152, thereby increasing the stability of the bend.

[0045] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 and 3, at least part of the support member 20 is in contact with the inner wall surface of the accommodating space 16. It can be that a part of the support member 20 is in contact with the inner wall surface of the accommodating space 16, or the entire support member 20 is in contact with the inner wall surface of the accommodating space 16, which can improve the supporting strength of the support member 20 for the first electrode tab 14 and the second electrode tab 15.

[0046] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to FIG1-FIG2 , the support member 20 includes a first support area 21, a fixing area 22, and a second support area 23. The first support area 21 and the second support area 23 are respectively connected to the two ends of the fixing area 22. The first tab 14 and the second tab 15 are both fixed to the same side of the fixing area 22. Specifically, the first bend 142 of the first tab 14 and the second bend 152 of the second tab 15 are located on the same side of the fixing area 22. For example, the fixing area 22 can be fixed to the first tab 14 and the second tab 15 using adhesive.

[0047] The first support area 21 and the second support area 23 are adapted to flip toward each other, with the support member 20 positioned within the accommodating space 16, thereby enhancing the strength with which the support member 20 supports the first and second tabs 14 and 15. For example, the first support area 21 may align with the first inclined surface 1411, and the second support area 23 may align with the second inclined surface 1511. For another example, within a projection plane perpendicular to the aligning plane of the first and second pole cores 11 and 12, the projection of the support member 20 is an isosceles triangle, thereby enhancing the stability of the support member 20.

[0048] The first pole lug 14 and the second pole lug 15 are both fixed on the same side of the fixed area 22. When the first pole core 11 and the second pole core 12 are flipped in a direction toward each other, the first pole core 11 can drive the first support area 21 to fold, and the second pole core 12 can drive the second support area 23 to fold, so that the first support area 21 and the second support area 23 can fit with the inner wall surface of the accommodating space 16.

[0049] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1-2, the first support area 21 includes a first overlapping area 211, which is located at the end of the first support area 21 away from the fixed area 22; the second support area 23 includes a second overlapping area 231, which is located at the end of the second support area 23 away from the fixed area 22; wherein the first overlapping area 211 and the second overlapping area 231 are overlapped, which can prevent the edges of the first support area 21 and the second support area 23 from penetrating the first pole ear 14 or the second pole ear 15, and can improve the safety of the support member 20 supporting the first pole ear 14 and the second pole ear 15.

[0050] In a specific example, the first support region 21 has a fifth fold, which is located at the edge of the first overlapping region 211 and is disposed near the fixed region 22. The fifth fold is configured as a groove provided in the first overlapping region 211. The second support region 23 has a sixth fold, which is located at the edge of the second overlapping region 231 and is disposed near the fixed region 22. The sixth fold is configured as a groove provided in the second overlapping region 231. The fifth fold on the first support region 21 can facilitate the folding of the first overlapping region 211 when the first pole core 11 is folded, and the sixth fold on the second support region 23 can facilitate the folding of the second overlapping region 231 when the second pole core 12 is folded, so that the first overlapping region 211 is easily overlapped with the second overlapping region 231.

[0051] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 and 2, a first bending region 24 is further connected between the first support region 21 and the fixed region 22. A first fold 241 and a second fold are spaced apart on the same side of the first bending region 24. The first fold 241 and the second fold are both configured as grooves provided on the surface of the first bending region 24. When the first support region 21 is bent, the surface of the first bending region 24 facing away from the first fold 241 or the second fold is configured in an arc shape, thereby preventing stress concentration in the first bending region 24. For example, the first bending region 24 may be located at the first transition slope 143 at the bend between the first connecting portion 141 and the first bending portion 142.

[0052] A second bending region 25 is connected between the second support region 23 and the fixed region 22. A third fold 251 and a fourth fold are spaced apart on the same side of the second bending region 25. Both the third fold 251 and the fourth fold are configured as grooves on the surface of the second bending region 25. When the second support region 23 bends, the surface of the second bending region 25 facing away from the third fold 251 or the fourth fold is configured in an arc shape, thereby preventing stress concentration in the second bending region 25. For example, the second bending region 25 may be located at the second transition slope 153 at the bend between the second connecting portion 151 and the second bending portion 152.

[0053] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 and 2, the fixing area 22 has a plurality of spaced-apart through-holes, which are located between the first electrode tab 14 and the second electrode tab 15. On the one hand, when injecting electrolyte into the first electrode core 11 and the second electrode core 12, the electrolyte can be injected into the first electrode core 11 and the second electrode core 12 through the through-holes; on the other hand, the internal gas of the first electrode core 11 and the second electrode core 12 can be discharged through the through-holes.

[0054] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 3-4, the support member 20 includes a support region 28 and a first fixing region 26 and a second fixing region 27, with the first fixing region 26 and the second fixing region 27 being spaced apart. The first fixing region 26 is connected to the first tab 14, and the first tab 14 is connected to the side of the first fixing region 26 facing away from the support region 28. The second fixing region 27 is connected to the second tab 15, and the second tab 15 is connected to the side of the second fixing region 27 facing away from the support region 28. Specifically, the first bend 142 of the first tab 14 and the second bend 152 of the second tab 15 are located on the same side of the first fixing region 26 and the second fixing region 27. For example, the first fixing region 26 can be fixed to the first tab 14 using adhesive, and the second fixing region 27 can be fixed to the second tab 15 using adhesive.

[0055] One end of the support area 28 is connected to the end of the first fixing area 26 away from the second fixing area 27, and the other end of the support area 28 is connected to the end of the second fixing area 27 away from the first fixing area 26. The support member 20 is located in the accommodating space 16 and is used to support the first and second tabs 14 and 15. For example, the first support area 21 can be aligned with the first inclined surface 1411, and the second support area 23 can be aligned with the second inclined surface 1511.

[0056] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 3-4, a first bending region 24 is further connected between the support region 28 and the first fixing region 26. A first fold 241 and a second fold are spaced apart on the same side of the first bending region 24. The first fold 241 and the second fold are both configured as grooves provided on the surface of the first bending region 24. When the first fixing region 26 is bent, the surface of the first bending region 24 facing away from the first fold 241 or the second fold is configured in an arc shape, thereby preventing stress concentration in the first bending region 24. For example, the first bending region 24 may be located at the first transition slope 143 at the bend between the first connecting portion 141 and the first bending portion 142.

[0057] A second bending zone 25 is connected between the support zone 28 and the second fixing zone 27. A third fold 251 and a fourth fold are spaced apart on the same side of the second bending zone 25. Both the third fold 251 and the fourth fold are configured as grooves on the surface of the second bending zone 25. This allows the surface of the second bending zone 25 facing away from the third fold 251 or the fourth fold to be configured in an arc shape when the second fixing zone 27 is bent, thereby preventing stress concentration in the second bending zone 25. For example, the second bending zone 25 may be located at the second transition slope 153 at the bend between the second connecting portion 151 and the second bending portion 152.

[0058] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 and 2, the support area 28 has a plurality of spaced-apart through-holes, which are located between the first electrode tab 14 and the second electrode tab 15.
