[0069] The fourth portion 32 extends in the opposite direction of the radial direction X of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 from the third portion 31, and it is understood that the fourth portion 32 extends in the opposite direction of the radial direction X of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 from the third portion 31, the angle between the extending direction of the fourth portion 32 and the radial direction X of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 is α2, -5°≤α2≤5°, for example, α2 can be: -5°, -4°, -3°, -2°, -1°, 0°, 1°, 2°, 3°, 4°, 5°, or a range formed by any two of them.

[0070] In one or more embodiments, the angle between the extending direction of the third portion 31 and the extending direction of the fourth portion 32 is α3, 85°≤α3≤95°, for example, α3 can be: 85°, 86°, 87°, 88°, 89°, 90°, 91°, 92°, 93°, 94°, 95°, or a range formed by any two of them.

[0071] The second portion 122 of the first extending portion 12 is used to limit the displacement of the fourth portion 32 along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, and extends in the opposite direction of the radial direction X of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 from the first portion 121.

[0072] In one or more embodiments, along the radial direction X of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, the thickness of the third portion 31 is H1, 0.5mm≤H1≤1.5mm; for example, H1 can be: 0.5mm, 0.55mm, 0.6mm, 0.65mm, 0.7mm, 0.75mm, 0.8mm, 0.85mm, 0.9mm, 0.95mm, 1.0mm, 1.05mm, 1.1mm, 1.15mm, 1.2mm, 1.25mm, 1.3mm, 1.35mm, 1.4mm, 1.45mm, 1.5mm, or a range formed by any two of them. With the above thickness range of H1, on the one hand, along the radial direction X of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, it is beneficial to improve the insulation performance of the third portion 31, and maintain good insulation between the top wall 101 and the first electrode terminal 20.

Please refer to FIGS. 7 and 8, in one or more embodiments, along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, at least one of the third portion 31 and the fourth portion 32 is projected as a ring shape, which is advantageous for further improving the insulation between the top wall 101 and the first electrode terminal 20.

[0076] As shown in FIG. 3, in one or more embodiments, along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, the projection of the second portion 122 and the projection of the fourth portion 32 have an overlapping portion; the projection of the fourth portion 32 and the projection of the first electrode terminal 20 have an overlapping portion, so as to facilitate the positioning of the first insulating member 30 in the axial direction Y and the good positioning of the first electrode terminal 20.

[0077] In one or more embodiments, along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, the projection of the second portion 122 and the projection of the first electrode terminal 20 do not overlap (not shown), which is beneficial for saving the material of the second portion 122 and improving the weight energy density of the cylindrical secondary battery 100.

[0078] In one or more embodiments, along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, the projection of the second portion 122, the projection of the fourth portion 32 and the projection of the first electrode terminal 20 all have overlapping portions, which is beneficial for further enhancing the positioning of the first electrode terminal 20 in the axial direction Y.

[0079] The sealing structure of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 is not particularly limited in the present application, as long as the purpose of the present application is achieved.

[0080] As shown in FIG. 3, in one or more embodiments, the cylindrical secondary battery 100 further comprises a sealing member 50; the top wall 101 comprises a second extension 13, which extends in the opposite direction of the radial direction X of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 from the hole wall of the through hole 111; along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, at least part of the sealing member 50 is arranged between the second extension 13 and the first electrode terminal 20, which is beneficial for forming a sealed connection between the second extension 13 and the first electrode terminal 20.

[0081] In one or more embodiments, along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, the projection of the second extension 13 is annular, which provides good support force for the sealing member 50, so as to further improve the sealing stability between the second extension 13 and the first electrode terminal 20.

[0082] In one or more embodiments, the material of the sealing member 50 comprises fluororubber, which has good corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, which is beneficial for improving the sealing effect of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 and reducing the probability of electrolyte leakage.

[0083] In one or more embodiments, along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, the thickness of the sealing member 50 is H3, i.e., the thickness of the sealing member 50 in the sealed state inside the cylindrical secondary battery 100, 0.5 mm≤H3≤2.3 mm. For example, H3 can be: 0.5 mm, 0.55 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.65 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.75 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.85 mm, 0.9 mm, 0.95 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.05 mm, 1.1 mm, 1.15 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.25 mm, 1.3 mm, 1.35 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.45 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.55 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.65 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.75 mm, 1.8 mm, 1.85 mm, 1.9 mm, 1.95 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.15 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.25 mm, 2.3 mm, or a range between any two of the foregoing values. The thickness of the fluororubber in the above range of H3 is conducive to providing a good sealing effect, and the thickness is relatively thin, which facilitates reducing the length of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, thereby facilitating improving the volumetric energy density of the cylindrical secondary battery 100.

[0084] In one or more embodiments, 0.5 mm≤H2≤1.5 mm, 1.2≤H3 / H2≤1.5. For example, H3 / H2 can be: 1.2, 1.22, 1.24, 1.26, 1.28, 1.3, 1.32, 1.34, 1.36, 1.38, 1.4, 1.42, 1.44, 1.46, 1.48, 1.5, or a range between any two of the foregoing values. Within the above range of H3 / H2, i.e., as the thickness of the first insulating member 30 increases, the thickness of the sealing member 50 is slightly greater than the thickness of the first insulating member 30. The sealing member 50 can be compressed to have a thickness slightly greater than the thickness of the first insulating member 30, which is conducive to matching the thickness of the first insulating member 30 and facilitating improving the sealing performance of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 under harsh working conditions such as impact or shaking.

[0085] In one or more embodiments, 0.5mm≤H3≤2.3mm, 1.2≤H3 / H2≤1.5. For example, H3 / H2 can be: 1.2, 1.22, 1.24, 1.26, 1.28, 1.3, 1.32, 1.34, 1.36, 1.38, 1.4, 1.42, 1.44, 1.46, 1.48, 1.5, or a range between any two of the foregoing values, within the range of the ratio described above, that is, as the thickness of the first insulating member 30 increases, the thickness of the sealing member 50 is slightly greater than the thickness of the first insulating member 30. The sealing member 50 can be compressed to keep the thickness of the sealing member 50 slightly greater than the thickness of the first insulating member 30, which is conducive to matching the thickness of the first insulating member 30, and is conducive to improving the sealing performance of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 under harsh working conditions such as impact or shaking.

[0086] In one or more embodiments, the first electrode terminal 20 is the negative electrode of the cylindrical secondary battery 100.

[0087] The application does not have special restrictions on the positive electrode setting mode of the cylindrical secondary battery 100. In one or more embodiments, the cylindrical secondary battery 100 further comprises: a second electrode terminal (not shown), the second electrode terminal is insulatedly connected with the shell 10, the second electrode terminal is electrically connected with the electrode assembly 40, the second electrode terminal is the positive electrode of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, and the shell 10 is neither the positive electrode nor the negative electrode of the cylindrical secondary battery 100. The cylindrical secondary battery 100 has the first electrode terminal 20 and the second electrode terminal, and is arranged at both ends of the cylindrical secondary battery 100. Since the distance is far, it is not easy to contact each other and short circuit.

[0088] In one or more embodiments, different from the above embodiments, in the present embodiment, the cylindrical secondary battery 100 does not arrange the second electrode terminal. The shell 10 is electrically connected with the electrode assembly 40, and the shell 10 is the positive electrode of the cylindrical secondary battery 100. That is, the shell 10 is electrically connected with the positive electrode of the electrode assembly 40 (for example, the positive electrode current collector plate is welded between the bottom wall of the shell 10 and the positive electrode of the electrode assembly 40, and the positive electrode current collector plate electrically connects the bottom wall of the shell 10 and the positive electrode of the electrode assembly 40), and the first electrode terminal 20 is electrically connected with the negative electrode of the electrode assembly 40, so that the shell 10 is the positive electrode of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, and the first electrode terminal 20 is the negative electrode of the cylindrical secondary battery 100. Since the second electrode terminal does not need to be arranged, the parts of the second electrode terminal are saved, the number of parts is reduced, the processing and assembly of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 are easy, and the overall battery is shortened, which is conducive to improving the energy density of the cylindrical secondary battery 100.

[0089] In the above embodiments, the cylindrical secondary battery 100 is a full-tab battery, and the electrode assembly 40 has different polarities at both ends along the axial direction Y.

[0090] In one or more embodiments, the electrode assembly 40 has a positive end facing the top wall 101 and a negative end facing away from the top wall 101.

[0091] In one or more embodiments, the electrode assembly 40 has a negative end facing the top wall 101 and a positive end facing away from the top wall 101.

[0092] Fig. 9 is a structural schematic diagram of the first electrode terminal 20 of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 according to an embodiment of the present application, and Fig. 10 is a sectional structural schematic diagram of the first electrode terminal 20 of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. In one or more embodiments, the first electrode terminal 20 includes a fifth portion 21, a sixth portion 22 and a seventh portion 23. The fifth portion 21 extends along the radial direction X of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 and is disposed between the sealing member 50 and the fourth portion 32 of the first insulating member 30. The sixth portion 22 extends from the fifth portion 21 away from the electrode assembly 40, and the seventh portion 23 is connected to the sixth portion 22 to form an end portion of the first electrode terminal 20 for external electrical connection.

[0093] Fig. 11 is a structural schematic diagram of the second insulating member 60 of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 according to an embodiment of the present application, and Fig. 12 is a sectional structural schematic diagram of the second insulating member 60 of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. In one or more embodiments, the cylindrical secondary battery 100 further includes a second insulating member 60. The second insulating member 60 includes an inner annular wall 61 disposed between the sixth portion 22 of the first electrode terminal 20 and the second portion 122 of the first extension 12 and extending along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 to form an insulating separation between the sixth portion 22 of the first electrode terminal 20 and the second portion 122 of the first extension 12, thereby reducing the probability of short circuit of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 caused by electrical connection between the sixth portion 22 of the first electrode terminal 20 and the second portion 122 of the first extension 12.

[0094] In one or more embodiments, the second insulating member 60 further includes an outer annular wall 62 disposed on a side of the first portion 121 of the first extension 12 away from the axis L0 of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 and extending along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, and a top annular wall 63 extending along the radial direction X of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 and connecting the outer annular wall 62 and the inner annular wall 61 to stably connect the outer annular wall 62 and the inner annular wall 61 to the top wall 101.

[0095] In one or more embodiments, the outer ring wall 62 and the top ring wall 63 cover the first extension 12, forming insulation protection for the first extension 12, which is conducive to reducing the risk of external components (such as busbars) short-circuiting the first extension 12 and the first electrode terminal 20.

[0096] Please refer to FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 9, FIG. 10 and FIG. 12, in one or more embodiments, the sixth part 22 of the first electrode terminal 20 is at least two, and the at least two sixth parts 22 are distributed along the outer periphery of the axis L0 of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, forming an opening 24 between the adjacent two sixth parts 22. As shown in FIG. 12, the second insulating member 60 further comprises a limiting part 64, which is extended by the inner ring wall 61 and extends into the opening 24. In the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, the projection of the limiting part 64 overlaps with the projection of the seventh part 23 of the first electrode terminal 20, so that the seventh part 23 limits the second insulating member 60 in the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100, thereby reducing the risk of the second insulating member 60 being separated from the top wall 101.

[0097] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, in one or more embodiments, a current cut-off device 70 is further included, which is electrically connected between the electrode assembly 40 and the first electrode terminal 20. The current cut-off device 70 is configured to be disconnected when the air pressure inside the shell 10 reaches a first threshold value, so as to disconnect the electrical connection between the electrode assembly 40 and the first electrode terminal 20, thereby breaking the charge-discharge circuit of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 and providing safety protection for the cylindrical secondary battery 100.

[0098] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, in the above-mentioned embodiments, the current cut-off device 70 comprises a rupture disc 71 connected to the first electrode terminal 20 and a hole plate 72 connected to the electrode assembly 40, and the rupture disc 71 and the hole plate 72 are electrically connected. When the cylindrical secondary battery 100 fails, the air pressure inside the shell 10 rises, and when the air pressure inside the shell 10 reaches the first threshold value, the rupture disc 71 is pushed by the air pressure inside the shell 10, and the middle part of the rupture disc 71 is flipped towards the seventh part 23 of the first electrode terminal 20, and the rupture disc 71 is disconnected from the hole plate 72, so as to disconnect the electrical connection between the electrode assembly 40 and the first electrode terminal 20, thereby breaking the charge-discharge circuit of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 and providing safety protection for the cylindrical secondary battery 100.

[0099] In the above embodiment, when the cylindrical secondary battery 100 is in a severe working condition, such as external short circuit or high temperature environment, the temperature inside the shell 10 rises rapidly, and the air pressure inside the shell 10 rises rapidly. When the air pressure inside the shell 10 reaches the first threshold value, the current cutoff device 70 is disconnected, and the electrode assembly 40 and the first electrode terminal 20 are disconnected. When the temperature inside the shell 10 is high, the melting point of the first insulating member 30 is high, and the first insulating member 30 is not easy to melt in the temperature environment inside the shell 10. This is beneficial to the first insulating member 30 to maintain good insulation between the top wall 101 and the first electrode terminal 20, and to reduce the risk of the temperature or air pressure inside the cylindrical secondary battery 100 continuing to rise due to the top wall 101 and the first electrode terminal 20 still being electrically connected after the current cutoff device 70 is disconnected, causing the cylindrical secondary battery 100 to smoke or catch fire.

[0100] In one or more embodiments, the first threshold value is P1, and 1.0 MPa≤P1≤1.6 MPa. For example, P1 can be: 1.0 MPa, 1.02 MPa, 1.04 MPa, 1.06 MPa, 1.08 MPa, 1.1 MPa, 1.12 MPa, 1.14 MPa, 1.16 MPa, 1.18 MPa, 1.2 MPa, 1.22 MPa, 1.24 MPa, 1.26 MPa, 1.28 MPa, 1.3 MPa, 1.32 MPa, 1.34 MPa, 1.36 MPa, 1.38 MPa, 1.4 MPa, 1.42 MPa, 1.44 MPa, 1.46 MPa, 1.48 MPa, 1.5 MPa, 1.52 MPa, 1.54 MPa, 1.56 MPa, 1.58 MPa, 1.6 MPa, or a range between any two of the above values. When the air pressure inside the shell 10 of the cylindrical secondary battery 100 rises to the range of P1, the current cutoff device 70 cuts off the electrical connection between the electrode assembly 40 and the first electrode terminal 20, which is beneficial to form an open circuit to the outside and improve the safety of the cylindrical secondary battery 100.

[0101] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, in one or more embodiments, the current interruption device 70 includes a third insulating piece 73, the aperture plate 72 and the rupture disc 71 are arranged along the axial direction Y of the cylindrical secondary battery 100; wherein the aperture plate 72 includes an eighth portion 721 and a ninth portion 722, the eighth portion 721 surrounds the ninth portion 722, and the eighth portion 721 is electrically connected to the electrode assembly 40; the rupture disc 71 includes a tenth portion 711 and an eleventh portion 712, along the axial direction Y, a projection of the eleventh portion 712 surrounds a projection of the tenth portion 711, the eleventh portion 712 is electrically connected to the first electrode terminal 20, and the ninth portion 722 is electrically connected to the tenth portion 711; along the axial direction Y, at least a portion of the third insulating piece 73 is arranged between the eighth portion 721 and the eleventh portion 712; the melting point of the third insulating piece 73 is t2, and t2≥300℃. When the cylindrical secondary battery 100 is in a severe working condition such as external short circuit, the temperature in the shell 10 rapidly rises, the melting point of the third insulating piece 73 is relatively high, and the third insulating piece 73 is not easy to melt in a high-temperature environment, which is conducive to maintaining good insulation between the eighth portion 721 and the eleventh portion 712 of the third insulating piece 73 and reducing the risk of failure of the current interruption device 70.

[0102] In one or more embodiments, the melting point and material of the third insulating piece 73 are the same as the melting point and material of the first insulating piece 30.
