为保证电芯组件能够稳定地安装于壳体内而不发生位移变化,有一些厂商会采用灌封胶、硅胶等胶水对电池组进行灌胶处理,以使上述胶水填充在电芯组件的外表面与壳体内壁之间,则电芯组件整体固定于壳体,进而可克服电芯组件在壳体内发生位移的缺陷。
然而,本申请的发明人在实现本申请的过程中发现:经过灌胶处理的电池组在内部电芯组件发生短路或过充等异常事故时,电芯组件将发生热失控并产生高温气体,而灌胶处理使电芯组件呈一密闭的状态,难以及时排出上述高温气体,故而经过灌胶处理的电池组在热失控时可能引发电池组爆炸等事故。

对于上述胶水,其填充于电芯组件200的第一侧之外的至少部分区域与壳体100之间的间隙,以固定电芯组件200与壳体100。本实施例中,胶水为灌封胶;可以理解的是,在本申请的其他实施例中,胶水还可以是发泡胶、硅胶等其他可固化的流体材料,在此不一一限定。
本实施例,该电池组还包括缓冲组件500,具体请参照图5,同时结合其他附图。缓冲组件500具有一定弹性,其设于电芯组件200于第一侧之外的至少部分区域与壳体100的内壁之间,并与上述第一隔件300共同配合作用,从而使各电芯210、第一支撑件220能够维持在一相对固定的位置,本实施例中,缓冲组件500可限制上述胶水通过,有利于减少胶水用量,降低成本。缓冲组件500包括端部缓冲件510与侧部缓冲件520;其中,端部缓冲件510设于电芯组件的第二侧与壳体100的内壁之间,侧部缓冲件242设于电芯组件200于第一侧与第二侧之间的侧面与壳体100之间。可选地,该端部缓冲件510和/或侧部缓冲件520为泡棉。
进一步地,上述电芯组件200还包括设于电芯210之间的隔离件230。具体地,请参照图5,隔离件230整体呈扁平的片状结构,且可限制上述胶水通过,该隔离件230的设置使得相邻的两电芯210之间具有一定的安全间隙,该安全间隙为电芯210的膨胀提供了一定的余量。可选地,隔离件230为弹性件,则在电芯热失控时,隔离件230能够通过弹性形变高效吸收电芯210的膨胀量,进而避免电芯210本体内气压过大无法形变而发生爆炸的隐患。进一步可选地,上述隔离件230为透气结构,则部分高温气体自电芯210的中心逸出后,经由隔离件230再向上述第一支撑件220流动,接下依次经过第一支撑件220、第一泄压通道、空气通道及泄压部逸出至壳体100。进一步可选地,隔离件230为泡棉,泡棉一方面能够允许电芯组件产生的高温气体通过其内部,另一方面亦能够将限制灌封胶通过。进一步可选地,隔离件230的中心部位设有沿第一方向X贯通的孔结构,即是:隔离件230整体呈回字形,该孔结构的设置能够减小高温气体在逸出过程中隔离件230对其的阻力,从而起到更佳的排 气防爆效果。同理,为避免胶水自第一隔件300渗入至上述薄弱部处,第一隔件300可限制胶水通过。
对于上述电池管理组件400,请参照图9与图10,其分别示出了电池管理组件400的立体示意图及一个方向的投影示意图,同时结合其他附图,电池管理组件400设于上述容置腔111,其包括电路板410、固定架420、两铜排430(图4)以及柔性电路板440(图4)。电路板410固定于固定架420并与电芯组件200电连接,其用于控制管理电芯组件200适时完成期望工作。固定架420包括第一支架421和第二支架422。其中,第一支架421呈背向电芯组件200放置的盒体状,其限定出一收容上述电路板410及第二支架422的收容腔(未示出);沿上述第一方向X,第一支架421设于电芯组件200的一侧并位于上述高温气体自第一隔件300处流向泄压部的路径上,上述电路板410具体固定于该第一支架421。第二支架422收容于上述收容腔并固定于第一支架421,并与第一支架411靠近第一侧壁的一端之间设置有间隙423,该第二支架422用于安装上述两铜排430。铜排430远离第二支架422的一端与电芯组件200的正极或负极连接。柔性电路板440的一端与上述各电芯210的极耳分别电连接,另一端首先穿过第一支架421靠近电芯组件200的一端,然后穿过上述间隙423与电路板410固定并电连接。
为便于上述高温气体的排出,上述空气通道包括设置于上述固定架420的第一空气通道450。本实施例中,该第一通气通道450同时设置于第一支架421与第二支架422,其整体贯通第一支架421与第二支架422;具体地,其包括设于第一支架421的方形通孔,以及设于第二支架422的圆形通孔,该圆形通孔与上述方形通孔连通。即是,自电芯组件200逸出的高温气体依次经过上述第一泄压通道、壳体100内的部分空气通道、第一空气通道、壳体100内的部分空气通道以及泄压部逸出壳体100。可以理解的是,在本申请的其他实施例中,第一空气通道还可以仅设于第一支架;在第二支架不收容于第一支架的收容腔时,上述第一空气通道还可以仅设置于第二支架。
本申请实施例提供的电池组包括壳体100、电芯组件200、第一隔件300、泄压部、胶水以及电池管理组件400。其中,壳体100设有用于收容电芯组件200的容置腔111。第一隔件300设于电芯组件200的第一侧与壳体100的内壁之间,其在温度高于第一预设阈值时发生受热变形,以使电芯组件200的第一侧与壳体100之间形成一第一泄压通道;其中,第一预设阈值低于电芯组件200热失控的温度。泄压部设于壳体100。胶水设于电芯组件200与壳体100之间,其用于填充在电芯组件200与壳体100之间并固定电芯组件200与壳体100。则,与目前市场上的电池组相比,本申请实施例提供的电池组在发生热失控时,产生的高温气体可顺利地经过第一泄压通道及泄压部逸出,从而避免电芯组件热失控时不能及时排出高温气体的弊端,以消除电池组爆炸的隐患。
应当理解,即使上述实施例中第一侧为电芯组件200设有第一极耳213的一端,其与第一侧壁121对应,但本申请并不局限于此;在其他实施例中,电芯组件200的第一侧还可以是与第二侧壁122对应,而并非第一侧壁121,相应地,第一极耳213仍与第一侧壁121对 应,第一隔件300设置于第二侧壁122与电芯组件200之间,此时,第一密封部与第一薄弱部仍位于第一隔件300与电极组件211之间,只是第一密封部及第一薄弱部不再与第一极耳2123对应。当然,第一隔件300、第一密封部与第一薄弱部的具体设置方式还可以有其他变形形式,在此不一一穷举。
基于同一发明构思,本申请还提供另一种电池组,为便于与第一实施例中的电池组区分,以下将该电池组称为第二电池组,同时将第一实施例中的电池组称为第一电池组。该第二电池组与第一电池组的主要不同在于:
第一电池组仅包括一第一隔件300,电芯210包括两第一极耳213,该两第一极耳213均设于电芯组件200的第一侧泄压部;
而第二电池组还包括另一第一隔件,电芯210包括一第一极耳与一第二极耳。
具体地,该另一第一隔件设置于电芯组件的第二侧与第三侧壁之间。可选地,上述密封部还包括设于电极组件与第三侧壁之间的第二密封部,包装袋还包括设于第二密封部的第二薄弱部,即是:单个电芯产生的高温气体可至少部分通过第二薄弱部逸出,并使设置于电极组件与第三侧壁之间的第一隔件发生收缩,进而使电芯组件与第三侧壁之间形成第二泄压通道,从而使上述至少部分高温气体再依次通过空气通道及泄压部逸出壳体。
第一极耳设于电极组件与第一侧壁之间,其与上述第一电池组中的第一极耳213的结构相同;第二极耳设于电极组件与第三侧壁之间,其亦与上述第一电池组中的第一极耳213的结构相同,该第二极耳的一端与电极组件连接,另一端自上述第二密封部延伸出包装袋。
与第一实施例中第一电池组相比,本实施例提供第二电池组在热失控时将形成第一泄压通道和第二泄压通道,高温气体可分别通过该第一泄压通道及第二泄压通道流向泄压部,其排气效率更高,故该第二电池组的防爆效果更佳。
可以理解的是,在第二电池组的其他一些实施例中,泄压部还可以设置在第三侧壁,或者,泄压部的数量为多个,至少一泄压部设于上述顶壁,至少一泄压部设于第三侧壁。此外,第二电池组中,第一薄弱部和/或第二薄弱部亦可以是不与极耳对应地设置,即是第一薄弱部和/或第二薄弱部设置在电电极组件与第二侧壁122(或第四侧壁124)之间。
基于同一发明构思,本申请还提供一种储能装置,其包括上述任一实施例中的电池组。由于包括上述电池组,故该储能装置在电池组热失控时能够及时排出高温气体,消除电池组爆炸的隐患。
基于同一发明构思,本申请还提供一种电动车辆,其包括上述的储能装置,即是:该电动车辆亦包括上述的电池组。该电动车辆在电池组热失控时能够及时排出高温气体,消除电池组爆炸的隐患。
最后应说明的是:以上实施例仅用以说明本申请的技术方案,而非对其限制;在本申请 的思路下,以上实施例或者不同实施例中的技术特征之间也可以进行组合,步骤可以以任意顺序实现,并存在如上所述的本申请的不同方面的许多其它变化,为了简明,它们没有在细节中提供;尽管参照前述实施例对本申请进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本申请各实施例技术方案的范围。
