Technical Field
The utility model relates to a battery field, concretely relates to battery aluminum hull, battery case subassembly and battery pack.
Background
In recent years, one of the main pain points restricting the large-scale popularization and application of new energy automobiles is insufficient endurance mileage. In order to improve the endurance mileage, design and process improvements mainly include increasing the compaction of positive and negative electrode plates, increasing the coating amount of active material per unit area, increasing the length and width of the electrode plates, reducing the thickness of an aluminum shell, using a limit top cover, and the like, so as to further utilize the internal space of the battery and improve the energy density of the single square battery.
However, the high energy density of the single square battery means that a larger amount of electrolyte is needed for liquid retention, and the high-compaction and high-coating-density pole piece is not beneficial to the rapid absorption of the electrolyte; increase pole piece size makes the aluminum hull inner space reduce when pouring into electrolyte, for example, present naked electric core side (width direction) goes out utmost point ear, through the battery design of pin water conservancy diversion to the apron, because the direction of height does not have utmost point ear, the designer increases the pole piece height as far as possible in order to fill the clearance of apron and naked electric core, electrolyte easily gathers near annotating the liquid mouth during notes liquid, hinder electrolyte drainage to battery both sides or bottom, it annotates the liquid volume to be difficult to reach the target fast, lead to annotating the speed control step that liquid process inefficiency even becomes in the whole production link of monomer square battery.
Also, as in the battery pack, vehicle and energy storage device technology (CN110165116A) disclosed by biddi corporation, the width of a single battery will reach 2500mm, and the limited liquid injection port cannot inject the electrolyte into the battery timely and evenly, so that the infiltration absorption speed is reduced, the production efficiency of the liquid injection is reduced, and even the infiltration effect and the battery performance are affected.
Because the efficiency of the liquid injection process is reduced, battery manufacturers generally meet the requirements by increasing the number of liquid injection equipment, so that the equipment cost, the plant construction and other investment are increased; for another example, the liquid injection speed is increased by adopting measures such as a high positive pressure-isobaric breathing type liquid injection process, the standing absorption time is prolonged by adopting measures such as a multistep liquid injection device for increasing a standing station, and the production and manufacturing cost of the square battery is greatly increased by adopting a high pressure-resistant material or increasing the volume and the station of the device.
In the electrolyte injection process, the electrolyte occupies the free space in the battery (process 1), the electrode liquid fills the interlayer gap of the pole piece (process 2) and the electrolyte fills the pore of the main material (process 3) in sequence. Among them, the process 1 is considered to be a step in which the injection resistance is minimum and the time is minimum. The electrolyte injection amount in the electrolyte injection process 1 is increased, so that the electrolyte injection speed can be obviously improved. Fig. 1 shows an aluminum case 1 widely used in a single square battery at present, which is formed by an aluminum case stretching process, in which raw materials are integrally formed by blanking, multi-step stretching, finish-drawing and shearing processes, and the height of the aluminum case cannot be increased or decreased because the aluminum case is shaped after being manufactured. Leading to an electrolyte injection process 1 (electrolyte occupies the free space inside the battery) that cannot be optimized. In addition, as the energy density of the single square battery is continuously increased, the advantage of fast liquid injection speed in the process 1 is reduced, and the challenges of efficiency and yield of the liquid injection process in the production link of the single square battery are more severe.
