Detailed Description
The following describes the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The application discloses a single battery with a thermal management function, please refer to the cross-sectional view of fig. 1, the single battery includes a battery case 1 and a battery cell 2 packaged inside the battery case 1, a positive pole 3 and a negative pole 3 of the single battery are led out from one end of the battery cell 2, the single battery in the application is usually used in cooperation with a battery cabinet, and the single battery is inserted into the battery cabinet through one end of the positive pole 3 and one end of the negative pole 3 to perform corresponding wiring to provide power output.
The battery shell 1 comprises a metal shell body 11, a foamed aluminum matrix 12 and a phase-change material 13, wherein the metal shell body 11 is of a double-layer hollow structure, a cavity for accommodating the battery core 2 is formed in the whole battery shell 1 on the inner side of the inner layer of the metal shell body, and the battery core 2 is packaged in the cavity on the inner side of the inner layer of the metal shell body 11.
The foamed aluminum substrate 12 is disposed in a hollow structure between the inner and outer layers of the metal casing body 11, each inner wall of the metal casing body 11 covers the surface layer of the foamed aluminum substrate 12, and the foamed aluminum substrate 12 has a porous structure and internal communication holes communicated with each other.
The phase change material 13 is filled in the interconnected pores of the foamed aluminum matrix 12, and in operation, the foamed aluminum matrix 12 is immersed when the phase change material 13 is in a liquid state and then cooled to become a solid state, so that the phase change material 13 is stably filled in the interconnected pores in the solid state. When the single battery works, the battery core 2 is operated to generate heat, the phase change material 13 absorbs the heat of the battery core 2 and turns into a liquid state, in this application, the aperture of the communication hole of the foamed aluminum matrix 12 matches with the surface tension of the phase change material 13, so that when the phase change material 13 turns into a liquid state, the phase change material is still stably filled in the communication hole of the foamed aluminum matrix 12 under the action of the surface tension without overflowing, and thus the normal operation of the single battery is not affected. In the present application, water is usually used as the phase change material 13, and the pore size of the communicating pores of the foamed aluminum substrate 12 matches the surface tension of water by 5 mm. The phase change material 13 continuously absorbs the heat of the battery cell 2, and changes from a liquid state to a gas state, and at this time, the gas overflows from the communication hole and generates pressure on the metal shell body 11.
Referring to fig. 2, in the present application, a fatigue notch portion 4 is pre-formed in a metal shell body 11, and the fatigue notch portion receives the maximum stress when the metal shell body 11 is pressurized, so that the metal shell body 11 is ruptured by internal gas to release gas from the fatigue notch portion. The present application is embodied in that the battery case 1 includes a case portion 1a and an end cap portion 1b, the case portion 1a and the end cap portion 1b are respectively made of a metal case body, a foamed aluminum matrix, and a phase change material in the above-described structure, and the metal case bodies of the case portion 1a and the end cap portion 1b are welded together to form the entire battery case 1.

When the single battery disclosed by the application is used, one end of the positive pole and the negative pole of the single battery are inserted into the battery cabinet, and the other end of the positive pole and the negative pole face the outside of the battery cabinet, namely the end cover part 1b faces the outside of the battery cabinet. When the thermal runaway temperature of the battery cell 2 rises continuously due to heat release and accumulation of the chemical reaction of the battery cell 2 in the working process, the heat absorbed by the phase-change material 13 from the battery cell 2 is changed into a liquid state and then into a gaseous state, in practical application, the filling amount of the phase-change material 13 can be designed according to the stored energy of the battery cell 2, so that the phase-change material is changed into the gaseous state after absorbing all the energy of the battery cell 2, after the phase-change material 13 absorbs the heat and changes into the gaseous state, the battery shell 1 is broken from the fatigue gap part 4 to release the gas, and the energy of the battery cell 2 is absorbed by the phase-change material 13, so that the temperature of the battery cell. Also, the fatigue notch portion 4 is provided at the end cover portion 1b of the unit cell toward the outside of the battery case, so that the release of gas does not affect the operation of other unit cells in the battery case.
