The first bending portion 1110 is a part of the structure of the tab 111, and the lead portion 1111 is another part of the structure of the tab 111. One end of the first bending portion 1110 is disposed on the first end surface 110a, and the other end of the first bending portion 1110 is connected to the lead portion 1111.

The foregoing description is only of the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the same, but rather, various modifications and variations may be made by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
