技术领域
本申请涉及储能设备技术领域,特别是涉及一种二次电池及电池包。
背景技术
随着新能源汽车的广泛应用,人们对二次电池的安全性能要求越来越高。目前二次电池主要包括外壳以及设置于外壳内的电极组件,为了保证二次电池的安全性能,外壳上通常还设置有防爆阀。
二次电池在平躺或者侧躺时,其电极组件内部游离电解液直接接触防爆阀,当电极组件内部发生短路时,电极组件与外壳将会形成原电池,使得电极组件产生的游离的锂离子扩散至外壳,进而腐蚀外壳,而防爆阀位置壁厚较薄,短时间内就会被腐蚀穿,进而发生漏液,降低了二次电池的使用寿命。
因此,亟需一种能够延缓其自身防爆阀被腐蚀穿的时间的二次电池及电池包。

本申请实施例提供一种二次电池1,包括外壳10、电极组件20、防爆阀30以及绝缘部件40。
外壳10包括相互连接的壳体110和顶盖组件120,壳体110具有开口113,顶盖组件120包括顶盖板121以及与顶盖板121连接的电极端子 122,顶盖板121覆盖开口113。电极组件20容纳在壳体110内,电极组件20包括主体210和由主体210延伸出的极耳220,极耳220与电极端子122电连接,防爆阀30连接于外壳10。绝缘部件40至少部分设置于电极组件20与防爆阀30之间,其中,防爆阀30在主体210上的投影至少部分被绝缘部件40覆盖。可选的,所说的投影可选为防爆阀30在主体210面向防爆阀30设置的表面上投影。
本申请实施例提供的二次电池1,当其电极组件20内部发生短路时,绝缘部件40的设置能够加长电极组件20内部的游离锂离子扩散到防爆阀30的路径长度,进而延缓防爆阀30被腐蚀穿的时间,延长二次电池1的使用寿命。
作为一种可选的实施方式,壳体110包括与顶盖板121相对设置的底板111以及围合底板111设置并与底板111、顶盖板121连接的侧壁112,侧壁112远离底板111的一端形成开口113。
顶盖组件120整体与壳体110连接,其顶盖板121位于开口113处并将开口113密封,底板111、顶盖板121以及侧壁112共同形成用于容纳电极组件20的容纳空间。

在一些可选的示例中,电极组件20的数量可以为多个且成对设置,多个电极组件20在厚度方向X相互层叠,为了更好的理解申请实施例提供的二次电池1,以下将以电极组件20的数量为两个进行举例说明。两个电极组件20在厚度方向X相互层叠。
可选的,绝缘部件40可以与电极组件20连接,当然,也可以与顶盖板121或者壳体110连接,具体可以根据防爆阀30的设置位置调整。只要能够延长电极组件20内部的游离锂离子扩散到防爆阀30的路径长度,进而延缓防爆阀30被腐蚀穿的时间均可。
在一些可选的示例中,绝缘部件40可以为柔性片状结构体,绝缘部件40与电极组件20粘接连接。绝缘部件40采用上述结构形式,不仅能够 延长游离锂离子扩散到防爆阀30的路径长度,同时结构简单,易于与电极组件20之间的连接,同时质量轻便,不会对二次电池1的能量密度产生影响。
作为一种可选的实施方式,每个电极组件20的主体210具有面向防爆阀30设置的第一表面211,绝缘部件40具有主覆盖体410,主覆盖体410覆盖至少部分第一表面211。由于电极组件20的主体210在发生短路时,产生的游离的锂离子较多,通过在主体210面向防爆阀30的第一表面211设置主覆盖体410,在电极组件20的内部发生短路时,能够延长大部分游离的锂离子的路径长度,且能够使得绝缘部件40的结构简单,易于在二次电池1的内部安装。
可选的,防爆阀30可以设置于外壳10的不同位置,在一些可选的示例中,防爆阀30可以设置于顶盖板121,此时,第一表面211可以为主体210面向顶盖板121设置的表面。主覆盖体410的结构形式可以根据极耳220所在位置设置。

请一并参阅图7至图10,图7示出了本申请一个实施例的绝缘部件40的结构示意图。图8示出了本申请实施例的第一覆盖件411与侧连接体420配合的结构示意图,图9示出了本申请实施例的第二覆盖件412与侧连接体420配合的结构示意图,图10示出了本申请一个实施例的二次电池1的局部结构示意图。
可选的,为了更好的延长游离的锂离子的扩散路径长度,主覆盖体410可以包括第一覆盖件411和第二覆盖件412,第一表面211具有中心线212,在电极组件20的厚度方向X上,中心线212将第一表面211划分为相对设置的第一区域211a以及第二区域211b,两个极耳220设置于第一区域211a并沿厚度方向X向第二区域211b弯折,第一覆盖件411至少覆 盖第二区域211b,第二覆盖件412至少覆盖第一区域211a。
通过将主覆盖体410限定为包括第一覆盖件411以及第二覆盖件412,使得相应的覆盖件可以对应覆盖其所在的区域,不仅能够保证对第一表面211的覆盖要求,还能够对由第一表面211延伸出的极耳220进行避让,能够更好的保证极耳220与电极端子122直接或者间接的电连接要求。
作为一种可选的实施方式,第一覆盖件411和第二覆盖件412在电极组件20的高度方向Z上至少部分重叠。通过上述设置,能够有效的避免第一覆盖件411以及第二覆盖件412之间形成有间隙,可以保证主覆盖件对第一表面211的全面覆盖要求,进一步延缓防爆阀30被腐蚀穿的时间。
请继续参阅图6至图10,在一些可选的实施例中,二次电池1还包括转接片50,成对使用的两个转接片50均位于顶盖板121与电极组件20之间,每个转接片50包括端子连接部510和极耳连接部520,端子连接部510连接于电极端子122,极耳连接部520连接于极耳220,通过设置转接片50,能够更便于极耳220与电极端子122之间的连接。在具体实施时,在厚度方向X相对设置的两个电极组件20中,相对设置的极耳220可以与同一个转接片50的极耳连接部520相连接。
可选的,第二覆盖件412还覆盖极耳连接部520面向且靠近顶盖板121的表面。由于转接片50由导电材料制成,当发生短路转接片50与电解液接触时,也会相应的产生游离的锂离子,因此,通过将第二覆盖件412覆盖转接片50的极耳连接部520,能够进一步延长极耳连接部520的游离的锂离子至防爆阀30的路径长度,延缓防爆阀30被腐蚀的时间。
作为一种可选的实施方式,在电极组件20的长度方向Y上,第二覆盖件412位于两个转接片50之间的部分连接于第一覆盖件411。通过上述设置,能够避免游离的锂离子由第一覆盖件411以及第二覆盖件412之间的缝隙游离至防爆阀30。更进一步的,第一覆盖件411与第二覆盖件412之间相互连接,还能够保证二者与电极组件20相应的主体210以及极耳220之间的连接强度,更好的保证对锂离子路径的延长效果。

可选的,第一覆盖件411可以包括第一支撑部411a、第二支撑部411b以及第三支撑部411c,在电极组件20的高度方向Z上,第一支撑部411a与极耳220的固定部221相对设置并覆盖固定部221远离顶盖板121的表面,第一支撑部411a与第二覆盖件412层叠设置并相互连接。第二支撑部411b覆盖第二区域211b,第三支撑部411c连接于第一支撑部411a以及第二支撑部411b之间并覆盖弯折部222靠近第二区域211b的一侧。
通过上述设置,使得第一覆盖件411不仅能够更好的覆盖第一表面211的第二区域211b,同时,还能够覆盖极耳220的至少部分固定部221以及弯折部222,保证了对电极组件20各个靠近或者面向防爆阀30设置的表面中所产生游离锂离子的路径的延长,同时还能够提高第一覆盖件411与电极组件20之间的连接强度。
可选的,第一覆盖件411的第一支撑部411a、第二支撑部411b以及第三支撑部411c可以为一体式结构,能够避免具有连接关系的任意两者之间产生对接缝隙,且易于制造成型。可选的,第一覆盖件411的第一支撑部411a、第二支撑部411b以及第三支撑部411c均可以为片状结构体,具体可以为柔性片状结构体,能够适用不同形态下的电极组件20的覆盖要求,并且能够进一步减小占用空间,避免对二次电池1的能量密度的产生影响。
可选的,第二覆盖件412同样可以为片状的结构体并与第一覆盖件411的第一支撑部411a在电极组件20的高度方向Z上相对设置,通过第一支撑部411a以及第二覆盖件412将极耳220的固定部221以及转接片50共同夹持,更好的满足对极耳220以及转接片50中的极耳连接部520的覆盖。
作为一种可选的实施方式,绝缘部件40还具有侧连接体420,主覆盖体410在厚度方向X的至少一侧连接有侧连接体420,侧连接体420贴合 于电极组件20在厚度方向X的表面。通过设置侧连接体420并限定其与住主覆盖体40以及电极组件20之间的连接关系,能够提高绝缘部件40整体与电极组件20之间的连接强度,避免主覆盖体410在电解液的浸泡下与电极组件20分离,保证对游离的锂离子路径的延长效果。
在一些可选的实施例中,主覆盖体410在厚度方向X的两侧分别设置有一个侧连接体420,其中一个侧连接体420与第一覆盖件411一体设置,具体可以连接于第一覆盖件411的第二支撑部411b上并与第二支撑部411b相交设置。另一个侧连接体420与第二覆盖件412一体设置并与第二覆盖件412相交设置。通过上述设置,能够便于侧连接体420与主覆盖件的连接。
同时,与第一覆盖件411连接的侧连接体420可以连接于电极组件20在厚度方向X的一侧表面,与第二覆盖件412连接的侧连接体420可以连接于同一电极组件20在厚度方向X的另一侧表面。通过上述设置,能够分别保证第一覆盖件411及第二覆盖件412各自与电极组件20之间的连接强度,更好的保证对游离的锂离子的路径延长要求。

当然,在一些其他的示例中,电极组件20的数量还可以为一个,一个电极组件20同样可以包括绝缘防护件,此时绝缘防护件所包括的主覆盖体410的数量可以为一个,只要能够满足在电极组件20内部发生短路时对防爆阀30的防护要求均可。

可以理解的是,以上各实施例提及的二次电池1,均是以防爆阀30设置于顶盖板121且极耳220位于顶盖板121与主体210之间进行举例说明。在一些其他的示例中,如图12所示,防爆阀30还可以设置于顶盖板121,但是可以将极耳220由主体210的侧面引出,而并非在第一表面211引出,同样能够满足防护要求。绝缘部件40的主覆盖体410还可以设置于主体210与顶盖板121之间,可以采用与第一表面211形状相匹配的弧形片状结构。同样能够满足储能要并使得二次电池具有更高的使用寿命。
当然,如图13、14所示,防爆阀30不限于设置于顶盖板121上,防爆阀30还可以设置于壳体110的底板111,此时,主体210的第一表面211可以为面向壳体110的底板111设置的表面,绝缘部件40的主覆盖体410可以设置于主体210与底板111之间。并且主覆盖体410可以为一平整的片状结构体,可以为如13所示的平面片状结构,也可以为图14所示的弧形片状结构。同时,电极组件20的极耳220可以由第一表面211引出,其也可以由其他表面引出,如由主体210在电极组件20的长度方向Y的两侧引出,只要能够满足二次电池1的储能要求,同时能够满足在电极 组件20内部发生短路时,延缓防爆阀30被腐蚀穿的时间均可。
在一些其他的示例中,防爆阀30还可以设置于壳体110的侧壁112,具体可以位于侧壁112在长度方向Y上其中一个壁面上,此时,主体210面向防爆阀30所在位置的表面为第一表面211,均可满足二次电池1的储能以及高寿命要求,在此就不一一列举。
在具体实施时,图11至图14所示实施例的二次电池中,其绝缘部件40的主覆盖体410在厚度方向X上同样可以设置侧连接体420,其作用同上述各实施例,在此就不赘述。
综上,本申请实施例提供的二次电池1,因其包括外壳10、电极组件20、防爆阀30以及绝缘部件40,不仅能够满足储能要求,防爆阀30的设置还能够使得二次电池1内部压力过大时通过防爆阀30释放压力,保证二次电池1的安全性。而相应设置的绝缘部件40,并限定绝缘部件40至少部分设置于电极组件20与防爆阀30之间,同时防爆阀30在电极组件20的主体210上的投影至少部分被绝缘部件40覆盖,使得电极组件20内部在发生短路时,电极组件20内部游离的锂离子只能沿绝缘部件40的四周扩散,而不能直接扩散到防爆阀30,即,锂离子由电极组件20扩散至防爆阀30的扩散路径被极大延长,因此能够延缓防爆阀30被腐蚀穿导致漏液的时间,进一步延长了二次电池1的使用寿命。
而本申请实施例提供的电池包100,因其电池模块102包括上述任意实施例的二次电池,既能够满足储能要求,同时具有更高的安全等级以及使用寿命,易于推广使用。
虽然已经参考优选实施例对本申请进行了描述,但在不脱离本申请的范围的情况下,可以对其进行各种改进并且可以用等效物替换其中的部件。尤其是,只要不存在结构冲突,各个实施例中所提到的各项技术特征均可以任意方式组合起来。本申请并不局限于文中公开的特定实施例,而是包括落入权利要求的范围内的所有技术方案。
