As a preferable technical solution of the method for evaluating the sealing performance of the lithium ion battery, the hardened layer extends from the opening of the explosion-proof notch toward a direction away from the explosion-proof notch.
As a preferable technical solution of the method for evaluating the sealability of a lithium ion battery, the hardened layer covers a side surface of the cap away from the battery cell.
As a preferable technical solution of the method for evaluating the sealing performance of the lithium ion battery, in step S20, the liquid cold insert is coated on the anti-explosion notch, and after the interval time is 10-30 min, high-pressure gas is filled in the bottom or the side of the battery.
As a preferred embodiment of the method for evaluating the sealability of a lithium ion battery, it is determined that the liquefied cold insert is completely hardened on the cap before the interior of the battery is filled with high-pressure gas.

The position of the surface of the anti-explosion nick is hardened to thicken the position of the anti-explosion nick corresponding to the cap, so that the structure of the anti-explosion nick is effectively strengthened, after high-pressure gas is filled into the battery, the position of the cap corresponding to the anti-explosion nick cannot be broken, and the position between the cap and the sealing ring is extruded by air pressure. The method is used for evaluating the sealing performance of the lithium ion battery, and the sealing position of the lithium ion battery can be detected under higher air pressure during the pressurizing test, so that the risk that the position of the explosion-proof nick on the cap is broken to forcibly stop new evaluation of sealing is avoided.

As shown in fig. 1, the present invention provides a method for evaluating the sealability of a lithium ion battery, comprising the following steps:
step S10, providing a battery to be evaluated, wherein the battery comprises a cap 2, and the cap 2 is provided with an explosion-proof notch 21.
Step S20, first, the surface of the cap 2 corresponding to the position of the anti-explosion notch 21 is hardened, then, high-pressure gas is filled into the bottom or the side of the battery, and whether the sealing of the battery leaks gas or not is detected, if so, the sealing of the battery is not qualified, and if not, the sealing of the battery is qualified.
Specifically, in step S20, after the high-pressure gas is filled into the bottom or the side wall of the battery, the pressure is maintained for 8 to 10 seconds, and then whether the battery leaks gas is detected.
Because the explosion-proof nick 21 is the groove structure, the cap 2 is less than the other positions of the cap 2 corresponding to the thickness of the explosion-proof nick 21, and when the air pressure in the battery is larger, the explosion-proof nick 21 is easily broken at the position corresponding to the cap 2. The surface of the anti-explosion nick 21 is hardened to thicken the anti-explosion nick 21 at the position corresponding to the cap 2, so that the structure of the anti-explosion nick 21 is effectively strengthened, after the high-pressure gas is filled in the battery 1, the position of the cap 2 corresponding to the anti-explosion nick 21 cannot be broken, and the position between the cap 2 and the sealing ring 3 is extruded by the air pressure. By using the method to evaluate the sealing performance of the lithium ion battery, the sealing position of the lithium ion battery can be detected under higher air pressure during the pressurizing test, and the risk that the sealing performance evaluation is forcibly stopped due to the fact that the position of the explosion-proof nick 21 on the cap 2 is broken is avoided.
In step S20, the surface of the cap 2 corresponding to the position of the explosion-proof score 21 is hardened by using a cold setting material.
The step S20 specifically includes a step S21 of heating the cold insert to change the cold insert from a solid state to a liquid state.

In order to reinforce the structural strength of the hardened layer, the thickness of the hardened layer is greater than or equal to the depth of the explosion-proof score 21.
In one embodiment, the sclerosis layer is kept away from by the opening part orientation of explosion-proof nick 21 the direction extension of explosion-proof nick 21, and this design, multiplicable the sclerosis layer with the area of contact of block 2 improves and should harden the bonding strength of layer to block 2, avoids the sclerosis layer to break away from block 2 at the in-process of aassessment.
Preferably, the hardened layer covers a side of the cap 2 away from the battery core.
In another embodiment, in the step S20, the liquid cold insert is coated on the explosion-proof score 21, and after the interval of time is 10-30 min, high-pressure gas is filled into the bottom or the side of the battery. In the embodiment, after the liquid cold insert is coated for 10-30 min, high-pressure gas is filled into the battery 1, so as to ensure that the liquid cold insert is completely solid and prevent only part of the cold insert from being hardened due to too short time.
Preferably, it is determined that the liquefied cold inlay is completely hardened on the cap 2 before the interior 1 of the battery is filled with high-pressure gas.
In this embodiment, if the sealing performance of the battery is not satisfactory, the hardened layer on the explosion-proof notch 21 is removed, and the battery is repaired. The qualified rate of the sealing performance of the battery is improved by repairing the battery.
