Detailed Description
The following description of the embodiments of the present invention will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following examples are only for illustrating the technical solutions of the present invention more clearly, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereby.
In the description of the present application, it is to be noted that, unless otherwise specified, "a plurality" means two or more; the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "inner," "outer," and the like, indicate an orientation or positional relationship that is merely for convenience in describing the application and to simplify the description, and do not indicate or imply that the referenced devices or elements must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and thus should not be construed as limiting the application.
The cover plate is abutted against the step surface
The abutting structure of the cover plate and the step surface depends on the structure of the cover plate, and a right-angle included angle, a round corner in smooth transition or a chamfer surface for connecting the inner plate surface and the side surface of the cover plate abuts against the step surface.
The opening at the end part of the shell is used for placing the battery core into the shell, and the step surface of the stepped hole is abutted with the chamfer surface, including surface contact abutment and/or line contact abutment; optionally, the abutting contact part is in a continuous closed ring shape, an intermittent shape or a local abutting shape along the periphery of the plate surface edge of the cover plate. Further, the continuous closed loop abutment can prevent welding slag from entering the inner cavity of the shell cover plate assembly.
Based on apron and the casing of current metal material and clearance fit scarf joint, the butt of chamfer face and step face includes but not limited to following three kinds:
firstly, when the chamfer of the chamfer surface is equal to the chamfer of the step surface, the step surface and the chamfer surface are in surface contact and abutment;
secondly, when the chamfer angle of the chamfer surface is larger than that of the step surface, the step surface is provided with a first side edge and a second side edge which are opposite to each other in the depth direction of the stepped hole, the first side edge is close to the opening, and the chamfer surface is in line contact and butt joint with the first side edge area;
thirdly, when the chamfer of the chamfer surface is smaller than the chamfer of the step surface, the chamfer surface is in line contact and abutting with the second side edge area of the step surface.
The second step surface is not beneficial to the cover plate to further go deep into the shell; when the whole thickness or the local edge of the cover plate slightly protrudes out of the opening end face of the shell, the cover plate is further pressed into the shell by adjusting the whole or local pressure of the cover plate and/or finely adjusting the relative position of the cover plate and the shell based on the first scheme and the third scheme, so that the opening end faces of the shell on the two sides of the scarf joint seam and the outer plate face of the cover plate are more flush.
Examples
As shown in fig. 1 to 5, in one embodiment, the battery case 1 includes a case 11 and a cover plate 12, and one end of the case 11 is provided with an opening; the cover plate 12 has an inner plate surface 121 and an outer plate surface 122 opposite to each other in the thickness direction and having a chamfered surface 123 connected between the inner plate surface 121 and the side surface; the cover plate 12 is embedded in the open stepped hole in a clearance fit manner, the stepped surface 111 of the stepped hole is abutted with the chamfered surface 123, and the outer plate surface 122 is welded with the end surface splicing seam of the opening; the chamfer angle of the step surface 111 of the stepped hole and the chamfer angle of the chamfer surface 123 of the cover plate 12 are both 45 degrees, and the step surface 111 is in surface contact with the chamfer surface 123. The step surface 111 has a first step surface side and a second step surface side which are opposite to each other, and a linear distance between the step surface 111 and a hole center line is gradually reduced from the first step surface side to the second step surface side.
The chamfer vertex of the step surface 111 is any point on the side of the second step surface, the vertex and the hole center line determine an axial section, the axial section is intersected with the step surface 111, and the included angle between the intersection line and a straight line which passes through the vertex and is parallel to the hole center line is the included angle of the step surface 111, such as the included angle alpha in fig. 3. Compared with the right-angled stepped surface 111, on the basis of the same area of the stepped surface 111, the height of the stepped surface 111 protruding towards the center of the hole can be properly reduced, that is, the shell 11 can be thinned, on the premise of ensuring the strength of the shell 11, so as to increase the volume of the inner cavity of the shell 11.
The edge of the chamfer surface 123 connected with the side surface of the cover plate 12 is a first chamfer surface side edge, the chamfer vertex of the chamfer surface 123 is any point on the first chamfer surface side edge, the chamfer vertex of the over-chamfer surface 123 and the cross section of the thickness direction center line of the cover plate 12 are intersected with the side surface of the cover plate 12, and the included angle between the intersection line and a straight line which passes through the vertex and is parallel to the thickness direction center line is the chamfer of the chamfer surface 123, such as ═ β in fig. 4.
Specifically, in the prior art, the case 11 is a rigid case of a battery, including but not limited to a prismatic battery and a cylindrical battery, and the prismatic battery case is usually an aluminum case or other alloy metal material. Taking the square battery case 1 as an example, the step surface 111 may be selectively disposed on one section of the inner wall of the case 11 in the circumferential direction or more than two sections disposed at intervals, so as to achieve the basic technical effect of increasing the abutting area of the step surface 111, and more preferably, the step surface 111 is a closed ring surface disposed along the inner wall of the case 11 in the circumferential direction, that is, in the cross-sectional view along B-B in fig. 1, the enlarged end angle at the opening of the case 11 is as shown in fig. 3; correspondingly, the side surfaces of the cover plate 12 include planar side surfaces corresponding to the long side and the wide side of the cover plate 12, and transition curved surfaces or transition folded surfaces corresponding to transition corners (which may be rounded corners or folded corners, and are usually rounded corners) of the long side and the wide side. The chamfer surface 123 is connected and arranged at an included angle between at least one of the planar side surface, the transition arc surface and the transition folding surface and the inner plate surface 121 of the cover plate 12. Preferably, the chamfer surface 123 is continuously disposed at an included angle between the above planar side surface, the transition arc surface, and the transition folding surface and the inner plate surface 121 of the cover plate 12, that is, the chamfer surface 123 is a closed ring surface around the edge circumference of the cover plate 12.

Compared with the cover plate 12 of a cylindrical battery, the cover plate 12 of a part of square batteries has a length and width difference, and the problems of flatness, machining errors and the like of the cover plate are more likely to occur in actual production. In the assembly structure of the cover plate 12 and the housing 11 of this embodiment, the stepped surface 111 can further guide the cover plate 12 into the stepped hole; in addition, the shell 11 and the cover plate 12 enclose a cavity communicated with the gap of the cover plate 12 and the shell 11, as shown by a triangular vacant area in a cross section of fig. 5, the cavity can receive welding slag descending along the gap during laser welding, and the welding slag is prevented from falling into the shell 11, so that the insulation and safety performance of the battery are effectively improved.

As in the previous embodiment, the housing 11 and the cover plate 12 enclose a cavity which is in clearance communication with the housing 11 of the cover plate 12 and can contain welding slag.
As shown in fig. 3, the stepped hole includes a cover plate embedding hole section, a step section and a battery cell accommodating hole section, the inner surface of the step section is a step surface 111, the distance between the step surface 111 and the center line of the casing 11 in the hole depth direction is gradually reduced, that is, the thickness of the casing 11 is gradually increased, the thickness difference between the cover plate embedding hole section and the casing 11 of the battery cell accommodating hole section is marked by a in the drawing, a is 0.1-0.3 mm, and preferably 0.15-0.2 mm. The cover plate embedding hole section and the battery cell accommodating hole section are straight hole sections. The housing 11 shown in fig. 2 is the same as the housing 11 in fig. 4 and 5.
As shown in fig. 1, the embodiment is a square-can battery including the battery case 1 of the above embodiment. Alternatively, the housing and the cover plate may be in face contact abutment or line contact abutment as in the embodiments.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
