TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present application relates to the technical field of energy storage devices, for example to a battery secondary short circuit prevention structure and battery. BACKGROUND

[0003] With the continuous development of new energy technology, the safety of the battery has also become one of the important problems that the industry needs to solve. Once the internal cell of the new energy battery experiences thermal runaway (such as short circuit), high heat will be generated, and when the high heat is conducted to the pole, it will melt the sealing ring, the outer plastic and / or the inner plastic, thereby possibly causing the positive and negative poles to be short-circuited, leading to secondary short circuit.

[0004] For example, a cylindrical battery is provided with a positive pole and a negative output shell. In order to ensure the insulation and sealing between the positive pole and the shell, a sealing ring and multiple insulation rings are arranged between the positive pole and the shell. The sealing ring is arranged to block the gap between the inner wall of the through hole of the positive pole and the shell and is used for insulation. The multiple insulation rings are arranged to ensure the insulation between the outer connecting part of the shell and the positive pole and the inner connecting part of the shell and the positive pole. That is, according to any contact position between the positive pole and the shell, a corresponding insulation structure is arranged. When the internal battery cell is in thermal runaway (such as short circuit), a large amount of heat will be generated in a short time. The heat will be transferred to the inner connecting part of the positive pole closest to the battery cell, the first through hole around the positive pole and the shell, and the outer connecting part of the positive pole away from the battery cell. The temperature of the positive pole and the shell at this position will quickly rise, so that the sealing ring and the insulation ring will also absorb a large amount of heat, and even the melting point will be reached, causing the outer layer of the positive and negative end faces of the sealing ring to melt or the insulation ring to melt. Once the melting phenomenon occurs, it may cause insulation failure and the risk of contact short circuit between the positive pole and the shell. Once the contact short circuit occurs, it will further increase the temperature rise speed of thermal runaway, causing greater danger and loss. SUMMARY

[0005] The application provides a battery secondary short circuit prevention structure, which can help to avoid the short circuit between the positive output and the negative output during thermal runaway, thereby helping to prevent secondary short circuit.

[0006] The application provides a battery secondary short circuit prevention structure, which comprises a first pole output, a first through hole is formed in the first pole output; a second pole, the second pole is arranged at the first through hole, and at least part of the second pole is inserted into the first through hole; an insulation sealing assembly, the insulation sealing assembly is arranged between the second pole and the first pole output, and the insulation sealing assembly is arranged to insulate and seal between the second pole and the first pole output, to form a primary insulation protection; a heat-resistant insulation structure, the heat-resistant insulation structure is arranged between the first pole output and the second pole, so as to form a secondary insulation protection between the second pole and the first pole output.

[0007] The application provides a battery, which comprises a battery secondary short circuit prevention structure according to any one of the above-mentioned schemes and an internal battery cell. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0044] Please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 31 to introduce the battery secondary short circuit prevention structure and the battery provided by the present application.

[0045] When the new energy battery is used, once the internal cell 200 of the new energy battery has thermal runaway (such as short circuit), high heat will be generated, and when the high heat is conducted to the second pole post 2, the insulating sealing assembly 3 will be melted, thereby possibly causing the positive output and the negative output to be short-circuited, causing secondary short circuit.

[0046] Therefore, the present embodiment provides a battery secondary short circuit prevention structure, which can insulate the positive output and the negative output when thermal runaway occurs in the battery, thereby avoiding short circuit between the two, which helps to prevent battery secondary short circuit.

[0047] The battery secondary short circuit prevention structure comprises a first pole output 1, a second pole post 2, an insulation sealing assembly 3, and a heat-resistant insulation structure. The first pole output 1 is provided with a first through hole 101; the second pole post 2 is arranged at the first through hole 101, and at least part of the second pole post 2 is inserted into the first through hole 101; the insulation sealing assembly 3 is arranged between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1, and the insulation sealing assembly 3 is arranged to insulate and seal between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1 to form a primary insulation protection; and the heat-resistant insulation structure is arranged between the first pole output 1 and the second pole post 2 to form a secondary insulation protection between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1, so that even if the insulation sealing ring 31 fails due to high temperature caused by thermal runaway, the heat-resistant insulation structure still provides secondary insulation protection.

[0048] The battery secondary short circuit prevention structure in the embodiment can ensure insulation protection between the first pole output 1 and the second pole post 2 in a high temperature situation, avoid the occurrence of secondary short circuit, and thus help prevent the battery from causing greater danger and damage due to the aggravation of thermal runaway caused by secondary short circuit, that is, help prevent the positive output and the negative output from being short-circuited when thermal runaway occurs in the battery, and improve the safety of the battery.

[0049] In the embodiment, one of the first pole output 1 and the second pole post 2 is a positive output, and the other is a negative output.

[0050] The first pole output 1 comprises a shell and a cover plate, and the second pole post 2 is inserted into the first through hole 101 of the cover plate or the first through hole 101 of the shell. The design is mainly based on the type of the battery and the design position of the second pole post 2.

[0051] The second pole post 2 is a positive post or a negative post, which is related to cylindrical batteries, square cell batteries, etc., and can be further set according to actual needs.

[0052] The second pole post 2 is arranged at the through hole of the first pole output 1 in a manner including riveting connection between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1, or glue connection between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1, or further including a riveting block 7, the second pole post 2 is arranged in the first through hole 101 and is in riveting connection with the riveting block 7, or the first pole output 1 has a riveting flange, the riveting flange is coaxially arranged with the first through hole 101 and surrounds the first through hole 101, and the riveting flange is riveted and bent to cover at least part of the second pole post 2. The above four fixing modes of the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1 basically cover all connection modes, and in multiple connection modes, a heat-resistant insulation structure can be arranged as an insulation protection structure for preventing secondary short circuit when the battery is in thermal runaway. Of course, the fixing mode between the two also needs to be selected according to actual needs.

[0053] In different fixing modes, the second pole post 2 also has different structural arrangements. Optionally, when the second pole post 2 is in riveting connection with the first pole output 1 and when the second pole post 2 is in riveting connection with the riveting block 7, the second pole post 2 includes an inner connecting portion 23, a middle connecting portion 21 and an outer connecting portion 22 arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the second pole post 2, the middle connecting portion 21 is partially arranged in the through hole, and the inner connecting portion 23 and the outer connecting portion 22 both protrude radially out of the through hole to limit and fix the second pole post 2. When the second pole post 2 is in glue connection with the first pole output 1, the second pole post 2 includes an inner connecting portion 23 and an insertion portion 24 connected with each other, and a positioning groove is arranged on the side surface of the insertion portion 24 to be in glue connection with the first pole output 1. When the second pole post 2 is fixed by the riveting flange, the second pole post 2 includes a body portion and a ring-shaped protruding portion 25, the body portion is used as an inner and outer electrical connecting portion, and the ring-shaped protruding portion 25 is arranged in riveting connection with the riveting flange. Of course, the structure of the second pole post 2 also needs to be designed according to actual design requirements and space requirements.

[0054] The insulation sealing assembly 3 is not only used for insulation between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1, but also used for sealing when the second pole post 2 is connected with the first through hole 101 of the first pole output 1, and the structure is particularly important. Optionally, the insulation sealing assembly 3 comprises an inner insulation ring 32, a sealing ring 31 and an outer insulation ring 33 arranged along the axial direction of the insulation sealing assembly 3 in sequence, the sealing ring 31 is sleeved on the middle connecting part 21, and the sealing ring 31 is clamped between the end face of the first pole output 1 away from the inside of the battery and the end face of the outer connecting part 22 facing the inside of the battery, so as to realize the sealing insulation between the second pole post 2 and the hole wall of the first through hole 101; the inner insulation ring 32 is sleeved on the middle connecting part 21, and the inner insulation ring 32 is partially clamped between the end face of the inner connecting part 23 away from the inside of the battery and the end face of the first pole output 1 facing the inside of the battery, so as to realize the insulation between the inner connecting part 23 of the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1; the outer insulation ring 33 is sleeved on the outer connecting part 22, and is partially clamped between the outer connecting part 22 and the end face of the first pole output 1 away from the inside of the battery, so as to realize the insulation between the outer connecting part 22 of the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1.

[0055] As the secondary insulation protection structure between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1, in the embodiment, the heat-resistant insulation structure is a ring-shaped or tubular heat-resistant insulation structure or a heat-resistant insulation plating structure, which can realize the heat-resistant insulation effect.

[0056] The heat-resistant insulation structure comprises a heat-resistant insulation piece, and the heat-resistant insulation piece is sleeved on the second pole post 2, so that the heat-resistant insulation structure is arranged between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1 to form the secondary insulation protection.

[0057] The heat-resistant insulation piece can be ring-shaped or tubular, so as to realize the sleeving mounting with the second pole post 2.

[0058] The material of the heat-resistant insulation piece is a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistor, ceramic or mica, so that the heat-resistant insulation piece has an insulation effect when the battery is in thermal runaway.

[0059] Optionally, the material of the heat-resistant insulation piece is a ceramic PTC thermistor or an organic PTC thermistor, and the ceramic PTC thermistor belongs to a kind of ceramic materials. The PTC thermistor is a typical semiconductor resistance with temperature sensitivity, and its resistance value increases step by step with the increase of temperature when the temperature exceeds a certain value. At high temperature in thermal runaway, the resistance value of the PTC thermistor increases, which can play an insulation effect and prevent the positive output and the negative output of the battery at the position of the heat-resistant insulation piece from being short-circuited.

[0060] Optionally, the material of the heat-resistant insulation part can also be other ceramic materials in addition to the ceramic PTC thermistor, and ceramic materials generally have insulation properties.

[0061] Optionally, the material of the heat-resistant insulation part can also be mica or composite mica, i.e., a composite material containing a mica component, which can withstand heat and has good insulation performance at high heat runaway temperatures.

[0062] The heat-resistant insulation structure includes a heat-resistant insulation layer 42 arranged between the first pole output 1 and the second pole post 2, i.e., the heat-resistant insulation structure is arranged between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1 to form secondary insulation protection.

[0063] The heat-resistant insulation layer 42 is a layer of heat-resistant insulation ceramic formed by electroplating or a layer of heat-resistant insulation material formed by spraying.

[0064] Optionally, the heat-resistant insulation layer 42 is a layer of electroplated aluminum oxide, which has good insulation properties and can withstand high temperatures, and the electroplated aluminum oxide layer can ensure structural strength and connection strength.

[0065] Optionally, the thickness of the heat-resistant insulation layer 42 is greater than 0.01 mm to ensure its insulation performance. Of course, the value of the thickness also needs to consider the cost and space occupied.

[0066] However, the position of the heat-resistant insulation structure is also an important consideration for its insulation protection. In the present embodiment, the heat-resistant insulation structure is arranged at least partially at the connection between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1.

[0067] The heat-resistant insulation structure is arranged at least partially between the second pole post 2 and the insulation sealing assembly 3 and / or at least partially between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1, which can achieve the heat-resistant insulation effect and the effect of secondary insulation protection.

[0068] The heat-resistant insulation structure is arranged between the middle connecting part 21 of the second pole post 2 and the insulation sealing assembly 3, between the inner connecting part 23 of the second pole post 2 and the insulation sealing assembly 3, and / or between the outer connecting part 22 of the second pole post 2 and the insulation sealing assembly 3. Alternatively, the heat-resistant insulation structure is arranged between the end face of the first pole output 1 facing away from the inside of the battery and the insulation sealing assembly 3, between the end face of the first pole output 1 facing toward the inside of the battery and the insulation sealing assembly 3, and / or between the hole wall of the first through hole 101 of the first pole output 1 and the insulation sealing assembly 3, which can all achieve the effect of insulation protection. Of course, the arrangement position needs to be adaptively arranged according to actual insulation requirements and heat runaway conditions, which is not limited herein.

[0069] Optionally, if at least part of the second pole post 2 and the insulating sealing assembly 3 and at least part of the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1 are provided with heat-resistant insulation structures, a heat-resistant insulation connecting part can be provided between the two to connect the heat-resistant insulation structures at the two positions, which can support the heat-resistant insulation structures to better achieve insulation between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1 and facilitate installation.

[0070] The embodiment also provides a battery including the battery secondary short circuit prevention structure described above. In this embodiment, the battery is a cylindrical battery, and of course, in other embodiments, it can also be a square battery. The battery can help prevent secondary short circuit and improve safety.

[0071] The battery secondary short circuit prevention structure and the battery provided by the present application are described below through multiple embodiments.

[0072] Embodiment One

[0073] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, the battery secondary short circuit prevention structure of the embodiment includes a first pole output 1, a second pole post 2, an insulating sealing assembly 3, and a heat-resistant insulation structure. The difference between this embodiment and other embodiments is the heat-resistant insulation structure.

[0074] In this embodiment, the heat-resistant insulation structure includes a heat-resistant insulation part. The first pole output 1 is provided with a first through hole 101, and the second pole post 2 includes a middle connecting part 21 and an outer connecting part 22 arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the second pole post 2, the middle connecting part 21 is partially inserted into the first through hole 101, and the outer connecting part 22 protrudes out of the first through hole 101 along the radial direction of the second pole post 2, that is, the radial dimension of the outer connecting part 22 is greater than the dimension of the first through hole 101. A sealing ring 31 is sleeved on the middle connecting part 21, and the sealing ring 31 is clamped between the end face of the first pole output 1 away from the inside of the battery and the end face of the outer connecting part 22 facing the inside of the battery. The heat-resistant insulation part includes a first heat-resistant insulation ring 411, the first heat-resistant insulation ring 411 is sleeved on the middle connecting part 21, and the first heat-resistant insulation ring 411 is clamped between the end face of the outer connecting part 22 facing the inside of the battery and the sealing ring 31 or the first heat-resistant insulation ring 411 is clamped between the sealing ring 31 and the end face of the first pole output 1 away from the inside of the battery. The material of the first heat-resistant insulation ring 411 is organic PTC thermistor, ceramic, or mica, so that the first heat-resistant insulation ring 411 has an insulation effect when the battery is out of control.

[0075] Even if the high temperature caused by the thermal runaway of the battery melts the sealing ring 31, the first heat-resistant insulation ring 411 can still have an insulation effect, whether it is arranged between the outer connecting portion 22 and the sealing ring 31 or between the sealing ring 31 and the first pole output 1, which helps to ensure the insulation between the outer connecting portion 22 of the second pole and the first pole output 1, and helps to prevent the short circuit between the second pole and the first pole output 1 after the sealing ring 31 melts, which can cause greater danger and loss, i.e., the secondary short circuit prevention structure of the battery helps to avoid the short circuit between the positive output and the negative output during thermal runaway.

[0076] Optionally, the material of the first heat-resistant insulation ring 411 is a ceramic PTC thermistor or an organic PTC thermistor. The ceramic PTC thermistor belongs to a kind of ceramic materials. The PTC thermistor is a typical temperature-sensitive semiconductor resistor. When the temperature exceeds a certain value, the resistance value of the PTC thermistor increases with the increase of the temperature in a step manner. At a high temperature during thermal runaway, the resistance value of the PTC thermistor increases, i.e., it can play an insulation role to prevent the short circuit between the positive output and the negative output of the battery at the position of the first heat-resistant insulation ring 411.

[0077] Optionally, the material of the first heat-resistant insulation ring 411 can also be other ceramic materials in addition to the ceramic PTC thermistor. Ceramic materials generally have insulation properties.

[0128] Optionally, the second pole post 2 further comprises an outer connecting portion 22 connected to one end of the middle connecting portion 21 away from the inside of the battery, the outer connecting portion 22 protrudes along the radial direction of the middle connecting portion 21, and the other end of the first heat-resistant insulation tube 413 abuts against the end face of the outer connecting portion 22 towards the inside of the battery, so as to prevent the second pole post 2 from moving in the axial and radial directions after the insulation sealing assembly 3 melts, and the middle connecting portion 21 close to the outer connecting portion 22 is in contact with the inner wall of the first through hole 101 to short circuit.

The setting of the third heat-resistant insulation ring 414 can ensure the insulation between the end face of the inner connecting portion 23 away from the inside of the battery and the end face of the first pole output 1 towards the inside of the battery when the first ring melts.

[0130] Similarly, optionally, the third heat-resistant insulation ring 414 is made of ceramic PTC thermistor or organic PTC thermistor, and the ceramic PTC thermistor belongs to a kind of ceramic materials. PTC thermistor is a typical semiconductor resistance with temperature sensitivity, and its resistance value increases step by step with the increase of temperature when the temperature exceeds a certain value. At high temperature in thermal runaway, the resistance value of the PTC thermistor increases, i.e. it can play an insulation role to prevent the positive output and the negative output of the battery at the position of the third heat-resistant insulation ring 414 from short circuiting.

The difference between the embodiment and other embodiments is that the heat-resistant insulation structure is different.

[0157] In the embodiment, the heat-resistant insulation structure comprises a heat-resistant insulation layer 42, and the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1 are riveted.

Optionally, the first heat-resistant insulating layer 421 is located on the side wall of the inner connecting portion 23, so as to ensure that the side face of the inner connecting portion 23 does not contact and short-circuit with the first-pole output 1. In this embodiment, the end face of the inner connecting portion 23 facing away from the inside of the battery and the side wall of the inner connecting portion 23 are both provided with the first heat-resistant insulating layer 421. Of course, in other embodiments, the first heat-resistant insulating layer 421 can be provided only on the end face of the inner connecting portion 23 facing away from the inside of the battery, or only on the side wall of the inner connecting portion 23, which can both help prevent secondary short-circuit.

Optionally, the inner connecting portion 23, the middle connecting portion 21 and the outer connecting portion 22 are sequentially connected along the axial direction of the second-pole post 2, and the diameter of the inner connecting portion 23 is greater than the diameter of the middle connecting portion 21, and the diameter of the outer connecting portion 22 is greater than the diameter of the middle connecting portion 21, so as to ensure that the second-pole post 2 does not come off the first through hole 101 of the first-pole output 1. Optionally, the inner connecting portion 23 is a riveting deformation portion, or the outer connecting portion 22 is a riveting deformation portion, which is not limited herein. The riveting manner can ensure the close connection between the second-pole post 2 and the first-pole output 1, and prevent relative displacement therebetween. It can be known that the heat-resistant insulating layer 42 needs to be electroplated on the outer wall of the second-pole post 2 first, and then the second-pole post 2 is riveted on the first-pole output 1.

[0162] The heat-resistant insulation layer 42 comprises a third heat-resistant insulation layer 423 located on the end surface of the outer connecting part 22 facing the inside of the battery, so as to prevent the short circuit between the end surface of the outer connecting part 22 facing the inside of the battery and the wall surface of the first pole output 1 facing the inside of the battery. Since the first pole output 1 may be deformed at high temperature, the third heat-resistant insulation layer 423 is optionally located on the side wall of the outer connecting part 22, so as to prevent the short circuit between the side wall of the outer connecting part 22 and the deformed first pole output 1.

[0164] The inner insulation ring 32 optionally further comprises a tubular part 322 clamped between the side wall of the middle connecting part 21 and the inner wall of the first through hole 101, so as to ensure the insulation between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1 at this position, and help to fix the position of the second pole post 2 relative to the first through hole 101 in the radial direction. When the material of the inner insulation ring 32 has a certain elasticity, the inner insulation ring 32 is clamped with an interference between the second pole post 2 and the first pole output 1, which can have a certain sealing function.

[0165] The insulation sealing assembly 3 optionally further comprises a sealing ring 31 and an outer insulation ring 33. The sealing ring 31 is sleeved on the middle connecting part 21, and the sealing ring 31 is clamped between the end surface of the outer connecting part 22 facing the inside of the battery and the wall surface of the first pole output 1 facing away from the inside of the battery.

[0167] Optionally, the thickness of the heat-resistant insulation layer 42 is greater than 0.01 mm, to ensure its insulation performance. Of course, the value of the thickness also needs to be considered comprehensively in terms of cost and space occupation.

[0173] When the battery is in thermal runaway and the internal temperature is very high, the outer insulation ring 33 may be melted and failed, but the fourth heat-resistant insulation layer and / or the fifth heat-resistant insulation layer can help prevent the second pole post 2 from contacting the first pole output 1 to prevent secondary short circuit and improve safety.

[0174] As shown in FIG. 22, optionally, the fourth heat-resistant insulation layer includes a first area heat-resistant insulation layer 4241 arranged on the side wall of the insertion part 24 to prevent the side wall of the insertion part 24 from contacting the first pole output 1 in a high temperature environment to cause secondary short circuit.

When the outer insulation ring 33 fails due to melting under a high-temperature environment, the second-pole post 2 is likely to be tilted and contact the second end surface 1021, thereby causing secondary short circuit. The fourth-zone heat-resistant insulation layer 4251 arranged on the second end surface 1021 can prevent the second end surface 1021 from contacting the second-pole post 2.
