The battery pack 1000 includes the battery cells 100 and a tray 200, wherein multiple battery cells 100 are disposed within the tray 200. The battery cells 100 or the battery pack 1000 are used to power the electrical device 2000, as shown in FIG22 .

[0103] As shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3, Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of the decomposed structure of the battery cell 100 provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 2 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the battery cell 100 provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure from one perspective; Figure 3 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the battery cell 100 provided in another perspective in an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0104] The battery cell 100 in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a shell 10, a cover assembly 20, a pole core 30, a spacer 40 and a monitoring module 50. The cover assembly 20 can cover the opening on the shell 10, so that the shell 10 and the cover assembly 20 together form an inner cavity for accommodating the pole core 30. The pole core 30 is fixed in the inner cavity, and the pole core 30 includes a pole ear 31, and the pole ear 31 extends toward the cover assembly 20. A spacer 40 is provided on the side of the pole core 30 facing the cover assembly 20, and the pole ear 31 passes through the spacer 40 and is fixedly connected to the cover assembly 20. The spacer 40 is provided on the side of the cover assembly 20 facing the interior of the battery cell 100. The battery cell 100 can be electrically connected to the electrical device through the pole ear 31 and form a loop to meet the power demand of the electrical device.

[0105] Specifically, in one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1, the battery cell 100 includes two cover assemblies 20, two pole ears 31 and two spacers 40, and a pole 21 is respectively provided on the main body 22 of the two cover assemblies 20, and the two cover assemblies 20, the two pole ears 31 and the two spacers 40 are arranged on both sides of the pole core 30, and different pole ears 31 extend toward different poles 21. The pole ears 31 pass through the spacers 40 and are electrically connected to the pole 21 on the main body 22. The pole core 30 is conductive to the pole 21 through the pole ears 31, so that the battery cell 100 can supply power to the electrical device through the pole 21.

[0106] The battery cell 100 in the embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure is also provided with a monitoring module 50, which is fixed to the cover assembly 20 or the spacer 40. The monitoring module 50 is electrically connected to the pole ear 31 respectively, so that a loop is formed between the monitoring module 50 and the pole core 30 to realize power supply of the monitoring module 50.

[0107] Specifically, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG1 , the monitoring module 50 is fixed to the cover assembly 20. The cover assembly 20 is provided with a pole 21. The end of the pole 21 facing the inner cavity is provided with a lead-out tab 211. The lead-out tab 211 is electrically connected between the pole 21 and the tab 31. At the same time, the battery cell 100 is also provided with a conductive member 70. One end of the conductive member 70 extends toward the lead-out tab 211 and is electrically connected to the lead-out tab 211, and the other end is electrically connected to the monitoring module 50, so that the pole core 30 and the monitoring module 50 are electrically connected to each other, thereby realizing power supply to the monitoring module 50.

[0108] In the embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure, a monitoring module 50 is provided within the battery cell 100. The monitoring module 50 is used to monitor the performance indicators of the battery cell 100. The monitoring module 50 forms a circuit with the electrode core 30 via the electrode tab 31. The battery cell 100 supplies power to the monitoring module 50 via the electrode tab 31. In this way, the monitoring module 50 can collect and store performance indicators such as gas production, temperature, and pressure within the battery cell 100. The collected performance data of the battery cell 100 can also be wirelessly transmitted to other terminals, which can then analyze and process the performance data of the battery cell 100.

[0109] Among them, it should be noted that the battery cell in the prior art is not provided with an installation position for the monitoring module, the monitoring module is difficult to fix in the battery cell, and the connection strength between the monitoring module and the battery cell is low. As the battery cell is used for an increasing period of time, it is more likely to cause the monitoring module to fail. Moreover, due to the compact internal structure of the battery cell and the small available space, it is difficult to install the monitoring module. The monitoring module and its power supply line both require high-precision installation to ensure that during the subsequent battery cell installation process, other components inside the battery cell will not interfere with the monitoring module and its power supply line, so as to protect the monitoring module and its power supply line and reduce the impact of the environment on the monitoring module, so that the monitoring module has a better monitoring effect.

[0110] The present disclosure fixes the monitoring module 50 of the battery cell 100 on the cover assembly 20 or the spacer 40, so that the monitoring module 50 is pre-integrated on the cover assembly 20 or the spacer 40. During the assembly process of the battery cell 100, the monitoring module 50 will be set in the battery cell 100 together with the installation of the cover assembly 20 or the spacer 40, thereby simplifying the assembly steps of the battery cell 100, reducing the difficulty of installing the monitoring module 50, and making the assembly of the battery cell 100 more convenient and quick.

[0111] In addition, since the pole tab 31 is fixedly connected to the cover assembly 20 through the spacer 40, the monitoring module 50 is arranged on the cover assembly 20 or the spacer 40, so that the monitoring module 50 can be closer to the pole tab 31, and it is also more convenient to set the power supply line of the monitoring module 50. For example, when the monitoring module 50 is arranged on the cover assembly 20, the power supply line between the monitoring module 50 and the pole 21 can be pre-embedded on the cover assembly 20 or pre-buried in the interior of the cover assembly 20; when the monitoring module 50 is arranged on the spacer 40, the power supply line between the monitoring module 50 and the pole tab 31 can be pre-embedded on the spacer 40 or pre-buried in the interior of the spacer 40. The above settings can reduce the difficulty of installing the power supply line of the monitoring module 50 and make the power supply line of the monitoring module 50 more reliable.

[0112] It should be pointed out that the battery cell 100 disclosed herein can be applied to electrical devices or battery packs and used as a power supply component. However, the battery cell 100 is not limited to application in electrical devices or battery packs. In other electrical systems that require power supply, the battery cell 100 in the embodiment of the disclosure is also applicable and has higher reliability.

[0115] In another embodiment, as shown in FIG1 , the pole 21 includes a lead tab 211 located at the end of the pole 21 facing the pole core 30. The tab 31 is fixedly connected to the lead tab 211 on the pole 21. Compared to a cylindrical pole 21, the lead tab 211 has a larger contact surface area. The tab 31 is fixed to the lead tab 211, making the connection between the tab 31 and the pole 21 more reliable. Furthermore, the larger contact area reduces the resistance between the tab 31 and the pole 21, thereby reducing energy loss during the transmission of electricity through the pole 21 to the power-consuming device.

[0116] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1, the battery cell 100 includes a conductive member 70, one end of the conductive member 70 is electrically connected to the monitoring module 50, and the other end is welded to the pole 21, so that the monitoring module 50 is electrically connected to the pole ear 31, thereby realizing power supply to the monitoring module 50.

The conductive member 70 is fixed to the cover assembly 20 and welded to the lead-out tab 211. The conductive member 70 is electrically connected to the tab 31 via the lead-out tab 211. The lead-out tab 211 can increase the contact area between the pole 21 and the conductive member 70, thereby improving the conductive effect and connection strength between the pole 21 and the conductive member 70.

[0118] In one embodiment, the battery cell 100 includes a conductive member 70 , one end of which is electrically connected to the monitoring module 50 , and the other end is welded to the tab 31 , so that the monitoring module 50 is electrically connected to the tab 31 , thereby realizing power supply to the monitoring module 50 .

Opening the explosion-proof valve 25 allows gas in the inner cavity to be discharged. During the operation of the battery cell 100, gas is generated. Excessive gas can cause excessive pressure in the inner cavity, thereby affecting the safety of the battery cell 100. In another embodiment, the explosion-proof valve 25 can also be provided on the first body 22a or the housing 10. The specific location of the explosion-proof valve 25 can be set based on the position of the battery cell 100 during liquid injection.

[0147] In this embodiment, the wire 71b is embedded in the first side plate 60a. The first side plate 60a and the wire 71b are integrated into one component, eliminating the need to arrange the wire 71b in the inner cavity. Furthermore, when the housing 10 is installed, the wire 71b disposed in the first side plate 60 is unlikely to come into contact with the housing 10, thereby preventing breakage of the wire 71b due to contact with the housing 10. Furthermore, displacement of the wire 71b after electrolyte injection into the battery cell 100 is prevented.

[0148] In another embodiment, the wire 71 b may also be embedded in the second side plate 60 b to protect the conductive member 70 .

[0174] The specific development of each of the above embodiments can make the monitoring module 50 and the pole core 30 conductive, and the battery cell 100 can also provide power to the monitoring module 50 when working, ensuring the normal operation of the monitoring module 50.

[0179] In a preferred embodiment, ultrasonic welding is used to weld the components within the battery cell 100. Soldering is typically used to weld components within the battery cell 100. However, due to the presence of electrolyte within the internal cavity, corrosion-resistant adhesive must be applied to the solder joints to protect them. Furthermore, the curing of the corrosion-resistant adhesive takes a long time, which increases the number of assembly steps and the time required to assemble the battery cell 100.
