Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature.

The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.
[0035] To meet market demand, the energy density of battery cells continues to rise. The increase in energy density leads to an increase in the heat load of the battery cells. When using pouch cells, a lot of heat will be generated at the tab sealing edge. However, current related technologies lack design considerations for heat dissipation at the tab sealing edge. As a result, the overall lifespan of the final battery pack is easily shortened due to poor heat dissipation.
[0036] Referring to Figures 1 to 6, this application provides a pouch cell assembly 100, including a pouch cell 10, a thermally conductive element 20, and a heat sink 30; the pouch cell 10 includes a tab seal 12, the thermally conductive element 20 contacts the tab seal 12, and the thermally conductive element 20 also contacts the heat sink 30, for transferring heat from the tab seal 12 to the heat sink 30.
[0037] With this configuration, the present application can transfer heat to the heat sink 30 through the heat-conducting element 20 located at the tab edge 12, thereby significantly improving the heat dissipation effect of the tab edge 12, and further improving the heat dissipation effect of the tab 11 at the tab edge 12. This enhances the thermal management performance of the final assembled battery pack and effectively reduces or avoids the risk of failure or shortened lifespan of the finished battery pack due to poor heat dissipation. Furthermore, when assembling the pouch cells 10, there is already a gap between the tab edges 12 of adjacent pouch cells 10. The heat-conducting element 20 does not require additional space to contact the tab edge 12, meaning that the installation of the heat-conducting element 20 will not increase the external dimensions of the final finished battery pack, thus avoiding any impact on the volumetric energy density of the battery pack. In addition, during heat conduction, the heat-conducting element 20 contacts the tab edge 12 rather than directly contacting the tab 11, achieving electrical insulation between the heat-conducting element 20 and the tab 11, effectively preventing damage to the pouch cells 10.
[0038] In one embodiment, the contact area between the tab seal 12 and the heat-conducting element 20 is coated with a thermally conductive material. It is understood that in other embodiments, the contact area between the heat-conducting element 20 and the heat sink 30 may also be coated with a thermally conductive material. The thermally conductive material can reduce contact thermal resistance and facilitate heat transfer. It is understood that the thermally conductive material includes, but is not limited to, thermally conductive adhesives, thermally conductive grease, etc.
[0039] For example, in this embodiment, the contact points between the tab sealing edge 12 and the heat-conducting component 20, and between the heat-conducting component 20 and the heat dissipation component 30, are coated with heat-conducting material.
[0040] In one embodiment, the heat sink 30 is a liquid cooling plate with coolant inside. The liquid cooling plate with coolant inside can accelerate the cooling rate of the heat-conducting component 20 and improve heat dissipation efficiency.
[0041] Referring to Figure 1, in one embodiment, the heat-conducting component 20 includes a heat-conducting pipe 21 and a phase change thermally conductive material, with the phase change thermally conductive material housed within the heat-conducting pipe 21. The phase change thermally conductive material can be a liquid-gas phase change thermally conductive material. This material absorbs heat at the contact point between the heat-conducting pipe 21 and the tab seal 12, transforming from a liquid to a gaseous state. It then releases heat at the contact point between the heat-conducting pipe 21 and the heat sink 30, transforming back from a gaseous state to a liquid state, and flows back to the contact point between the heat-conducting pipe 21 and the tab seal 12. This cycle repeats, accelerating the heat transfer efficiency of the heat-conducting component 20 and continuously transporting the heat generated at the tab seal 12 to the heat sink 30, thereby accelerating the heat dissipation of the pouch cell 10. In one embodiment, the phase change thermally conductive material can also be a solid-gas phase change thermally conductive material.
[0042] In one embodiment, the heat-conducting element 20 further includes a liquid transfer element (not shown), which is housed within the heat-conducting pipe 21 and is used to transfer the liquid phase change heat-conducting material. With this configuration, when a liquid-gas phase change heat-conducting material is used, the liquid transfer element can increase the flow rate of the liquid phase change heat-conducting material, promoting its return to the contact tab sealing edge 12 of the heat-conducting pipe 21. Exemplarily, the liquid transfer element can be made of a capillary porous material.
[0043] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, in one embodiment, the heat-conducting element 20 includes an absorber portion 22 and a dissipator portion 23 connected to each other. The absorber portion 22 is used to contact the tab sealing edge 12, and the dissipator portion 23 is used to contact the heat sink 30. This facilitates the flow of phase change thermally conductive material between the dissipator portion 23 and the absorber portion 22.
[0044] Referring to Figures 1, 2, and 5, in one embodiment, the heat dissipation section 23 is higher than the heat absorption section 22. With this arrangement, the liquid phase change thermally conductive material can vaporize from the lower heat absorption section 22 (used for contacting the tab sealing edge 12) and naturally rise to the higher heat dissipation section 23 (used for contacting the heat dissipation component 30). After liquefying back to liquid state at the heat dissipation section 23, it can naturally flow back to the heat absorption section 22 under the influence of gravity. This allows the thermal conductivity cycle of the thermally conductive component 20 to be natural and rapid without adding other structures.
[0045] Referring to Figures 2 and 5, by way of example, a transition connection 24 is provided between the heat absorption part 22 and the heat dissipation part 23. The transition connection 24 is inclined and the heat absorption part 22 and the heat dissipation part 23 are connected and communicated through the transition connection 24.
[0046] Referring to Figures 2, 3, and 4, in one embodiment, the tab seal 12 has a thickness direction D and a length direction L. Along the thickness direction D, the heat-conducting element 20 includes a first branch 21A and a second branch 21B arranged sequentially. Both the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B include a heat-absorbing portion 22. Along the length direction L, the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B are connected on at least one side of the pouch cell 10, and the connection point of the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B is configured as a heat dissipation portion 23. With this configuration, the heat-absorbing portions 22 of the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B can simultaneously absorb heat on the surfaces of the two tab seals 12 and simultaneously transfer heat to the heat dissipation portion 23 at the side connection point. Thus, the heat-absorbing portions 22 of the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B effectively increase the heat-conducting area of the heat-conducting element 20 in contact with the tab seal 12, which is beneficial for cooperating with the heat dissipation portion 23 to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat-conducting element 20.
[0047] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, in one embodiment, the heat pipe 21 is circumferentially bent and not closed, and there is a predetermined distance between the two ends of the heat pipe 21 along its length direction L. In other words, the heat-conducting element 20 is circumferentially bent along the tab seal 12 and formed into a ring structure with an opening on one side of the tab seal 12.
[0048] Thus, compared to the closed annular structure, the open annular structure of the heat-conducting component 20 can moderately reduce the structural strength of the heat-conducting component 20, which is beneficial to reduce the accuracy requirements of the dimensions of the heat-conducting component 20 when assembling the heat-conducting component 20 with the soft-pack battery cell 10, facilitates the production and installation of the heat-conducting component 20, and the preset distance can provide a certain buffer space to reduce the damage that may be caused by stress or installation errors during the installation process.
[0049] Referring again to Figures 2 to 4, exemplarily, in one embodiment, the second branch 21B includes a first sub-branch 21B1 and a second sub-branch 21B2; along the length direction L, the first sub-branch 21B1 and the second sub-branch 21B2 are respectively connected to both ends of the first branch 21A. In other words, the first sub-branch 21B1 and the second sub-branch 21B2 position the opening of the heat-conducting component 20 on the side opposite to the first branch 21A, and both segments of the second branch 21B along the length direction L are connected to the first branch 21A, allowing the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B to share two heat dissipation parts 23.
[0050] This configuration maximizes the area of the heat-absorbing part 22 and the heat-dissipating part 23, effectively balancing heat conduction and improving heat dissipation efficiency while reducing the structural strength of the heat-conducting component 20.
[0051] It is understood that in other embodiments, along the length direction L, the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B may also be connected only on one side of the tab seal 12. That is, along the length direction L, the opening of the heat-conducting element 20 is located on one side of the pouch cell 10, and the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B share a heat dissipation part 23.
[0052] Referring to Figures 1, 3, and 5, in one embodiment, two parallel pouch cells 10 form a pouch cell group 101 along the thickness direction D. The pouch cell assembly 100 includes at least one pouch cell group 101 arranged sequentially along the thickness direction D. Each pouch cell group 101 corresponds to a heat-conducting element 20, with the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B of each heat-conducting element 20 located on opposite sides of the corresponding pouch cell group 101. This arrangement, compared to one heat-conducting element 20 corresponding to one pouch cell 10, effectively reduces the number of heat-conducting elements 20 by having the first branch 21A and the second branch 21B of the heat-conducting element 20 located on opposite sides of the pouch cell group 101. While ensuring heat dissipation for the tab sealing edge 12 of each pouch cell 10, it also reduces the weight of the final assembled battery pack, improves assembly efficiency, and lowers costs.
[0053] Referring again to Figures 1, 3, and 4, in one embodiment, the pouch cell assembly 100 further includes an elastic element 40. The elastic element 40 is sandwiched between two pouch cells 10 of the pouch cell assembly 101 and is located at the tab seal 12. This arrangement allows the elastic element 40 to press the tab seal 12 towards the first branch 21A or the second branch 21B along the thickness direction D, improving the contact stability between the tab seal 12 and the heat-conducting element 20 and ensuring stable and effective heat exchange.
[0054] It is understandable that the elastic element 40 may include, but is not limited to, the use of rebound foam.
[0055] Referring to Figure 1, in one embodiment, the tab sealing edge 12 has a thickness direction D and a length direction L; along the length direction L, the heat sink 30 is disposed on one side of the pouch cell 10, and the heat sink 30 contacts the heat conductor 20. In this way, the original spatial structure can be maximized, allowing the heat conductor 20 to be installed within the gaps that already exist between the pouch cells 10 while also making contact with the heat sink 30, effectively achieving heat conduction and ensuring stable heat conduction.
[0056] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, in one embodiment, at least one side of the tab seal 12 contacts the heat conductor 20 along the thickness direction D. The side surface area of the tab seal 12 along the thickness direction D is relatively large. This arrangement is beneficial for increasing the contact area between the tab seal 12 and the heat conductor 20, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency.
[0057] Referring to Figures 1 and 6, in one embodiment, multiple heat sinks 30 are provided, and the multiple heat sinks 30 are arranged at intervals along the length direction L. Multiple pouch cells 10 arranged along the thickness direction D are disposed between adjacent heat sinks 30. In other words, this allows for an increase in the number of pouch cells 10, thermally conductive elements 20, and heat sinks 30 while ensuring the heat dissipation rate, thus meeting different battery capacity requirements.
[0058] Referring to Figures 1 and 6, in one embodiment, the tab sealing edge 12 further has a first direction H, and the thickness direction D and length direction L are both perpendicular to the first direction H. The pouch cell assembly 100 also includes a heat dissipation connecting plate 50, with each heat dissipation component 30 connected to the same side of the heat dissipation connecting plate 50 along the first direction H, and the tab sealing edge 12 located along the first direction H on the side of the pouch cell 10 away from the heat dissipation connecting plate 50. In this way, each heat dissipation component 30 is connected to the heat dissipation connecting plate 50, which is beneficial to improving structural stability; with each heat dissipation component 30 connected to the same side of the heat dissipation connecting plate 50 along the first direction H, and the tab sealing edge 12 located along the first direction H on the side of the pouch cell 10 away from the heat dissipation connecting plate 50, the heat dissipation component 30 or the heat dissipation connecting plate 50 is prevented from obstructing the electrical connection of the tab 11 at the tab sealing edge 12, and the tab 11 is prevented from being damaged by the heat dissipation component 30 or the heat dissipation connecting plate 50.
[0059] Referring to Figures 1 and 6, by way of example, all pouch cells 10 have tabs 11 on the same side. And along the first direction H, the tabs 11 of all pouch cells 10 are located on the side of the pouch cell 10 that is opposite to the heat dissipation connection plate 50.
[0060] For example, the first direction H is parallel to the vertical direction. In this embodiment, the heat dissipation part 23 is higher than the heat absorption part 22 along the first direction H.
[0061] It is understandable that the heat dissipation connection plate 50 can also be configured as a liquid cooling plate with coolant inside, which is beneficial to improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the soft-pack battery cell 10; specifically, the coolant flow channels inside each heat dissipation component 30 can be connected with the coolant flow channels inside the heat dissipation connection plate 50.
[0062] For example, this application also provides a battery pack including the aforementioned pouch cell assembly 100. The battery pack provided by this application, with the same volume, has higher heat dissipation efficiency, better stability, safety, and longer service life.
[0063] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0064] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the patent protection scope of this application should be determined by the appended claims.
