Description

Battery
Technical field
Present invention is directed to the power supply battery of lithium secondary battery etc. for example that is used for various electronic installations.
Background technology
Generally speaking, in needing the non-break power supply of backup battery, under the situation about normally producing from the input voltage of commercial ac power source, from main power source portion needed direct current or alternating voltage are supplied to load as the power supply body of electronic installation, and via this main power source portion to secondary cell charge, on the other hand, when above-mentioned input voltage reduces or have a power failure, be connected to load and supply capability from main power source portion as the secondary cell of backup battery.In the secondary cell that this made is employed lead accumulator in the known techniques, and its reason mainly is that cheapness and management of charging and discharging are simple.
But the non-break power supply that carries lead accumulator is under the prerequisite that must guarantee more battery container space, and it is extremely heavy that weight becomes, and with regard to the environment face, uses lead also can cause various problems.In order to solve relevant various shortcomings, for example in patent documentation 1, replace lead accumulator with lithium secondary battery and propose non-break power supply as backup battery.The battery module that lithium secondary battery herein is in series by a plurality of battery units (battery) constitutes, in keep and prevent to overcharge and the battery protecting circuit of overdischarge.
In patent documentation 2, disclosed and possessed over circuit and additives for overcharge protection circuit, the secondary cell casket of the casket shape of built-in lithium secondary battery again.
Though in known techniques, used prevailingly as the lead accumulator of secondary cell, the lithium battery as the Miniaturizable with very high power density of electric power storage medium is widely used in recent years.So the 9th figure that is configured in of lithium battery casket represents.In the lithium battery casket,, be the diagram dihedral herein though mainly be cylindrical shape and dihedral.In same figure; battery 100 is in order to become set voltage, capacity, and a plurality of flat tabular battery units 101 are connected electrically and overlapped up and down, and the cell stack of formation becomes group unit 102; carrying battery protecting circuit 103 at its topmost, be accommodated in the housing 104 of case shape.
The internal structure of the stacking type lithium battery of a kind of form of expression lithium battery in the 10th figure.As the battery 101 of stacking type lithium battery at for example cobalt acid lithium (LiCoO 2) or LiMn2O4 (LiMnO 2) wait between the negative materials 111 such as positive electrode 110 and for example carbon, insert the separator 112 of for example polyethylene of insulation usefulness or the micro-porous film of polypropylene system etc., after these are accumulated to certain layer lamination tectosome 113, this lamination tectosome 113 with electrolyte from top to bottom with 114,114 sealings of aluminium laminated board.On positive electrode 110 and negative material 111, form anode electrode 110a and negative electrode 111a respectively, partly outside portion is outstanding from the applying of aluminium laminated board 114,114.
Patent documentation 1: the spy opens the 2002-58170 communique
Patent documentation 2: specially permit communique No. 2861879
Patent documentation 3: the spy opens flat 11-283599 communique
Patent documentation 4: specially permit communique No. 2861879
Under the situation as the lithium battery of the outer dress of the lamination of battery unit 10, when apply owing to overcharging the quota more than voltage the time, because the decomposition meeting of electrolyte produces gas in the inside of aluminium laminated board 114,114, aluminium laminated board 114,114 itself expands and gas enters between the lamination of the positive electrode 110 of battery unit 101 inside or negative material 111 and separator 112 and causes the collapse of lamination structure to be out of shape.If this situation continues, the thermal welding portion of aluminium laminated board 114,114 is open, and the gas leakage after electrolyte and the gasification is to outside, and battery unit 101 temperature inside slowly rise, and inner lamination structure is out of shape more.Then, when battery unit 101 inside reach the solution temperature (fracture temperature) of separator 112, because battery unit 101 internal modifications produce temperature inequality, the rapid rising of temperature that can produce locality on the face of separator 112.By this, original was that purpose inserts that separator 112 between positive electrode 110 and the negative material 111 produces the dissolving of part on the whole and ineffective with the insulation, produce short circuit between positive electrode 110 and the negative material 111, the result produces sudden and violent the dashing of heat and the anxiety that has battery unit 101 to be fuming.
At the inner flammable internal gas that produce of battery unit 101 for example because overvoltage and the boil-off gas (diethyl carbide, ethene carbide) that produces from electrolyte or because sudden and violent the dashing of heat and from CH that electrolyte produced 4, C 2H 4, C 2H 6Deng, when battery unit 101 overcharges etc., cause the expansion of aluminium laminated board 114,114 at inside battery generation internal gas.At this moment, such as patent documentation 3 exposure owing to explosion-proof valve etc. is set, when the pressure in the battery rises to set value when above as the certain ejection portion of the emission direction that makes internal gas, the internal gas of battery is discarded to outside the battery from this explosion-proof valve, and is explosion-proof by removing gas.
So, battery unit 101 produces internal gas owing to overcharging, and the worst situation is fuming in addition, the anxiety of ignition.In this,, usually, be to be installed in this battery as the protective circuit (for example patent documentation 4) as for the battery protecting circuit of being fuming, getting angry 103 that prevents battery as the countermeasure that solves the problem on the safety.In patent documentation 4, possess over circuit or additives for overcharge protection circuit, forbid discharging and recharging of secondary cell when discharging and recharging excessively, and preventing being fuming, getting angry of battery by this.Generally speaking, this protective circuit as mentioned above, is equipped on that a plurality of battery units 101 overlap up and down and the topmost of the cell stack that forms when in fact battery unit 101 is installed in the battery.
But,, also have for some reason and the situation that can't act on even above-mentioned protective circuit is set.At this moment,, be provided with and prevent from the above-mentioned known explosion-proof valve that breaks to make flammable internal gas ejection towards temperature cruelly owing to arrive heat though produce internal gas owing to overcharging etc., easy of internal short-circuit is fuming, is got angry.Therefore, the sudden and violent stage in advance before temperature of arrival heat can positively be guaranteed safety, wishes to have institutional Security Countermeasures.
In the known techniques, owing to goodsization towards high power capacity are not advanced, the fail safe under overcharging only considers that under its situation that can't act on, the self-criticism of fail safe can't be carried out as the electric property protective circuit as the battery protecting circuit 103.Group unit 102 in the mechanism is because mechanical vibration that external factor caused or impact countermeasure and insert the position standard of housing 104 and carry out institutional design.So, only because the designed housing 104 (mechanism) of external factor though in 104 of housings as strong assembly, inner group unit 102 (or battery unit 101 monomers) has the gap between separator 104, group unit 102 is own motionless owing to vibration, impact etc., because it is accurate that the group unary system is fixed in the position of housing 104, battery unit 101 (group unit 102) is out of shape because of overcharging easily.Only consider the housing 104 of external factor, as previously mentioned, expansion, the distortion of overcharging and being caused are dashed cruelly because of internal short-circuit causes heat, in housing 104 inside, in press and rise or group element deformation (expansion) and cause and produce pressure internally.At this moment, if the air-tightness height of housing 104, then housing 104 has the possibility of breaking or being out of shape.
Again, under the situation of lithium battery, owing to consider general fail safe, battery and protective circuit are a pair of, and usually, battery and protective circuit are approaching and dispose.That is, though group unit 102 is to be accommodated in the housing 104 as battery unit with battery protecting circuit 103, group unit 102 is considered external factor and is fixed in the housing 104 under motionless situation.At this moment; when cause battery unit 101 distortion owing to overcharging heat cruelly towards the time; battery protecting circuit 103 is approaching owing to produce being fuming of a great deal of in housing 104 inside; by circuit or be out of shape between the heteropole of caused unit portion of terminal, promptly may produce the phenomenon of short circuit between anode electrode 110a and the negative electrode 111a.
Summary of the invention
In this, in view of this, first purpose of the present invention is for providing a kind of battery, prevents the distortion of the unit that causes by overcharging, and carries out institutional Security Countermeasures.
Second purpose of the present invention is for providing a kind of battery, makes battery ineffective and can guarantee safety at superpotential commitment.

Embodiment
Following with reference to annexed drawings, the preferred embodiment of battery of the present invention is described.And, give identical symbol to identical position, so the explanation of common part is owing to repeat to omit as far as possible.
Embodiment 1
The 1st figure is the cutaway view of the structure of battery among this first embodiment, is to use and the identical battery of lithium battery shown in the known example as the battery unit 101 of the cell body that constitutes battery 1.That is, the inside of battery unit 101, positive electrode 110, negative material 111 overlap with several layers with separator 112 and after forming lamination tectosome 113, seal with aluminium laminated board 114 with electrolyte.Even in the present embodiment, in battery 1, in order to reach set voltage, capacity, the object that a plurality of flat tabular battery units 101 are done the series connection of electric property ground overlaps up and down and forms the group unit 102 of Battery pack body, sandwiches between each battery unit 101 of lamination as what prevent deformation element and prevents deformed plate 2.
Prevent deformed plate 2 for preventing the assembly of battery unit 101 distortion, the size towards 112 whole of the separators of battery unit 101 is necessary at least.Again, the material, thickness that prevents deformed plate 2 for the metal of for example aluminium, iron, copper etc. or resin etc. so long as the expansive force of the battery unit 101 that is produced when overcharging can not make the material of the hardness of its distortion, hardness get final product.
To prevent that so deformed plate 2 from inserting group unit 102 between each battery unit 101 under the state of above-below direction by push plate 3,3 pushings of group unit, is accommodated in the housing 104 of case shape.Particularly, tighten is accommodated in the housing 104 to organize pressing plate 3,3 clamping group unit 102, unit, to use the not shown end tool that for example sticks together adhesive tape or end band etc.This group unit pressing plate 3 is formed by the hard material identical with preventing deformed plate 2, and prevents that deformed plate 2 is identical and will have at least towards the size of 112 whole of the separators of battery unit 101.In the present embodiment, for the unit of pushing group positively 102 integral body, prevent the shape that plate 2 is also bigger than battery unit 101 or distortion.The pressure of pushing group unit 102 must not damage characteristic (characteristic of battery), life-span and the reliability of battery unit 101.Again, a side of pushing also can be the structure that group unit 102 pushes in the plane fifty-fifty itself.When this pressure put on the plane unequally, lamination can produce the part deterioration in anode electrode 110a, negative electrode 111a, the separator 112 of battery unit 101 inside, and may the accelerated aging deterioration.On the contrary, do on the plane when pushing fifty-fifty when battery unit 101 itself, owing to be difficult to produce the part deterioration that the part inequality is caused in the plane by discharging and recharging, life characteristic also can improve.
The battery unit 101 of present embodiment prevents the member that is connected to battery unit 101 of deformed plate 2 and group unit pressing plate 3 etc. owing to be the long-pending outer dress of aluminium lamination, in order not damage aluminium laminated board 114,114, must be noted that burr etc.Its countermeasure is to insert insulating trip between battery unit 101, or originally implements insulation coating on one's body or attach adhesive tape at the member that prevents deformed plate 2 and group unit pressing plate 3 etc.
Then, the explanation that is used as that prevents deformed plate 2 and group unit pressing plate 3,3 when overcharging etc.Group unit 102 is by pressing plate 3,3 pushings of group unit, owing to apply pressure to a certain degree, each battery unit 101 of formation group unit 102 is also restrained at group unit pressing plate 3,3 or is prevented between the deformed plate 2, even also can not expand when overcharging etc. with just often keep identical shape generally.At this moment, in battery unit 101 inside, the leeway that between the lamination of positive electrode 110 or negative material 111 and separator 112, does not have gas to enter, the lamination structure can not crumble.Therefore, do not have the inequality of temperature on the face of separator 112, promptly separator 112 heats fifty-fifty on comprehensively and temperature is risen.On separator 112 the general material that uses owing to have and the rise characteristic of proportional increase impedance of temperature, characteristic by this separator 112, if do not produce distortion in that lamination is textural, the temperature of separator 112 is for arriving the preceding temperature of solution temperature, contraction by separator 112 increases interelectrode impedance, produces before dissolving, the internal short-circuit again, and the electric current of battery unit 101 reduces, be suppressed because the temperature of battery unit 101 rises, can not cause heat to be dashed cruelly.Again, contacting and push to a certain degree done by the anode electrode 110a that is produced by element deformation and the heteropole portion of negative electrode 111a.So, the distortion of the battery unit 101 that caused of preventing to overcharge by the variation of the impedance that temperature caused that utilizes separator 112, can be guaranteed safety institutionally before arriving the commitment that heat dashes cruelly.
For the temperature that suppresses battery unit 101 rises, prevent that deformed plate 2 and group unit pressing plate 3,3 from preferably using the heat release assembly of the good material of heat conductivity, thickness, shape.When using these heat release assemblies, prevent deformed plate 2, the heat heat release apace of each battery unit 101 of formation group unit 102 between each battery unit 101 by being present in.Therefore, even each battery unit 101 heating when discharging and recharging, the heat release apace of this heat can prevent that each battery unit 101 from becoming high temperature.Because piling up for a plurality of battery units 101, group unit 102 forms, central part thermal capacitance in group unit 102 is easily accumulated, be located between each battery unit 101 by the deformed plate 2 that prevents that exothermicity is good, because the heat heat release apace of battery unit 101,102 central part heat can not accumulated in the group unit, the temperature of battery unit 101 rise slow down and, can implement the cooling of separator 112 really.
In aforesaid first embodiment, in the battery 1 that possesses group unit 102, group unit 102 is by the separator 112 that inserts insulation usefulness between positive electrode 110 and negative material 111, with the lamination tectosome 113 of these assembly laminations with electrolyte with aluminium laminated board 114 as the outer dress of lamination, the battery unit 101 as cell body of 114 sealings, overlap with a plurality of battery units 101 then and form as the Battery pack body, between the battery unit 101 of group unit 102, insert as hard prevent deformable material prevent deformed plate 2 simultaneously, be provided with pushing group unit 102 all and prevent these battery units 101 distortion as the group unit pressing plate 3 that prevents anamorphic attachment for cinemascope, 3.
So; even the protection of electric property was lost efficacy; by the expansion that prevents that deformed plate 2 and group unit pressing plate 3,3 can institutional inhibition battery units 101; when overcharging etc.; even because the decomposition of electrolyte produces gas in battery unit 101, the lamination structure in each battery unit 101 can not crumble yet.If do not produce distortion at the lamination structure, by the impedance operator of separator 112, before the temperature of separator 112 arrived solution temperature, the electric current of battery unit 101 reduced, and was suppressed because the temperature of battery unit 101 rises, and can not cause heat to be dashed cruelly.By more than, can provide a kind of battery, the distortion of the battery unit 101 that caused of preventing to overcharge, and carry out institutional Security Countermeasures.
In this first embodiment, prevent that deformed plate 2 and/or group unit pressing plate 3,3 from being to use the good heat release member of heat conductivity again.
So, by being present in preventing deformed plate 2 and/or organizing unit pressing plate 3,3 between each battery unit 101, the heat of each battery unit 101 of formation group unit 102 is able to heat release apace.Therefore, when discharging and recharging, even each battery unit 101 heating, loud, high-pitched sound heat also can promptly be released, and can prevent that each battery unit 101 from becoming high temperature.
The 2nd figure is the major part cutaway view of the structure of the battery among this second embodiment.The essential structure of battery 10 is identical generally with the battery 1 shown in first embodiment.That is, the object of will a plurality of flat tabular battery unit 101 electric property ground in order to reach set voltage, capacity connecting in group unit 102 overlaps up and down and in the cell stack that forms, sandwiches between each battery unit 101 of lamination and prevent deformed plate 2.
In this second embodiment, use the case shape housing replacement group unit pressing plate 3,3 and as preventing anamorphic attachment for cinemascope.Housing 11 is to prevent that the group unit 102 of deformed plate 2 is low a little and form than clamping, and when group unit 102 was accommodated in its inside, group unit 102 was pressed in the housing 11 and is shaped.By this, group unit 102 is pushed into the inner face of housing 11, owing to apply the pressure of certain degree, the expansion of each battery unit 101 is suppressed.
The variation of present embodiment is the battery 20,30 shown in the 3rd figure and the 4th figure again.In the battery 20, prevent that deformed plate 2 from not inserting the interlayer of each battery unit 101, but the battery unit 101 of each sheet or per two battery unit 101 insertions prevent that the group unit 102 of deformed plate 2 is pressed in the housing 21 of case shape.In the battery 20 of the 3rd figure, preventing to clip battery unit 101 between the deformed plate 2,2, at housing 21 inner faces and prevent clamping a slice battery unit 101 between the deformed plate 2.On the other hand, in the battery 30 of the 4th figure, per two battery units 101 insert and prevent that the group unit 102 of deformed plate 2 is pressed in the housing 31.Therefore, housing 21,31 must be designed to its size and can be pressed into its inside for group unit 102.
The battery unit 101 that the top of group unit 102 or group unit 102, bottom constitute relaxes owing to temperature rises, can positively implement the cooling of separator, the housing 11,21,31 that the preventing of group unit 102 itself is out of shape is good material, thickness, the shape of heat conductivity preferably also.Insertion group unit 102 prevent deformed plate 2, variation shown in the 3rd, 4 figure, even do not insert between each battery unit 101, the size of the unit number that consideration group unit 102 overlaps and the thickness of battery unit 101, size (capacity), encapsulation, can be per two and per three insert optional positions, under the alleviation effects that the temperature of battery unit 101 rises is preferential situation, preferably shown in the 2nd figure, insert between each battery unit 101.
As mentioned above, in the battery 10,20,30 of this second embodiment, the above-mentioned anamorphic attachment for cinemascope that prevents is will organize unit 102 all to be pressed into inner housing 11,21,31.
So, utilize the housing 11,21,31 of taking in group unit 102, can easily prevent the expansion of battery unit 101.Therefore, can utilize existing structure and the Security Countermeasures of enforcement body's property.
In this second embodiment, prevent that deformed plate 2 and/or housing 11,21,31 from being to use the good heat release member of heat conductivity again.
So, prevent plate 2 and/or housing 11,21,31 by the distortion that is present between each battery unit 101, the heat of each battery unit 101 of formation group unit 102 discharges apace.Therefore, even each battery unit 101 heating when discharging and recharging, this heat can be released post, can prevent that each battery unit 101 from becoming high temperature.
In the various embodiments described above, do explanation following at the relevant favourable variation of 101 monomers of the battery unit in the various embodiments described above.Owing to ensconce the battery unit 101 in the battery 1,10,20,30 in this variation is applicable to, more improving safety.
The 5th figure is the plane graph of part excision of an end parts of the secondary cell of expression first variation, and as the battery unit 41 of secondary cell, except externally mounted part divided, the battery unit 101 represented with known example and each embodiment was identical.That is, battery unit 41 is inner to form positive electrodes 110 with negative material 111 and separator 112 lamination several layers and form after the lamination tectosome 113, with electrolyte with structure as aluminium laminated board 42,42 sealings of outer dress member.And with the part shown in the figure, in battery unit 41, anode electrode 110a and negative electrode 111a be the end of outstanding side not.
