本申请中出现的“多个”指的是两个以上(包括两个)。
本申请中,电池单体可以包括锂离子二次电池、锂离子一次电池、锂硫电池、钠锂离子电池、钠离子电池或镁离子电池等,本申请实施例对此并不限定。电池单体可呈圆柱体、扁平体、长方体或其它形状等,本申 请实施例对此也不限定。电池单体一般按封装的方式分成三种:柱形电池单体、方形电池单体和软包电池单体,本申请实施例对此也不限定。
本申请的实施例所提到的电池是指包括一个或多个电池单体以提供更高的电压和容量的单一的物理模块。例如,本申请中所提到的电池可以包括电池模块或电池包等。电池一般包括用于封装一个或多个电池单体的箱体。箱体可以避免液体或其他异物影响电池单体的充电或放电。
电池单体包括电极组件和电解液,电极组件由正极片、负极片和隔离膜组成。电池单体主要依靠金属离子在正极片和负极片之间移动来工作。正极片包括正极集流体和正极活性物质层,正极活性物质层涂覆于正极集流体的表面,未涂覆正极活性物质层的正极集流体凸出于已涂覆正极活性物质层的正极集流体,未涂覆正极活性物质层的正极集流体作为正极极耳。以锂离子电池为例,正极集流体的材料可以为铝,正极活性物质可以为钴酸锂、磷酸铁锂、三元锂或锰酸锂等。负极片包括负极集流体和负极活性物质层,负极活性物质层涂覆于负极集流体的表面,未涂覆负极活性物质层的负极集流体凸出于已涂覆负极活性物质层的负极集流体,未涂覆负极活性物质层的负极集流体作为负极极耳。负极集流体的材料可以为铜,负极活性物质可以为碳或硅等。为了保证通过大电流而不发生熔断,正极极耳的数量为多个且层叠在一起,负极极耳的数量为多个且层叠在一起。隔离膜的材质可以为PP(polypropylene,聚丙烯)或PE(polyethylene,聚乙烯)等。此外,电极组件可以是卷绕式结构,也可以是叠片式结构,本申请实施例并不限于此。

在一些实施例中,请继续参照图7,第一凹部2313的底壁上设有沿面向电极组件22的方向凹陷的凹槽2313b,电极端子232部分容纳于凹槽2313b。
凹槽2313b可起到定位电极端子232的作用,可方便对电极端子232定位安装。凹槽2313b可以是能够与电极端子232相匹配的形状,比如,电极端子232为圆柱形,凹槽2313b也为圆柱形。
可选地,第一凹部2313的深度大于凹槽2313b的深度,即第一外表面2311b到第一底壁2313a的距离大于第一底壁2313a到凹槽2313b的底壁的距离。

连接体2322可以周向包覆于端子主体2321的外周,以实现连接体2322与端子主体2321的固定。示例性的,连接体2322为包覆于端子主体2321的外周的环形结构。
连接体2322部分容纳于凹槽2313b内后,连接体2322可通过焊 接的方式固定于凹槽2313b的侧壁或底壁。以连接体2322固定于凹槽2313b的侧壁为例,连接体2322可抵靠于凹槽2313b的底壁,焊接过程中的焊料将连接体2322固定于凹槽2313b的侧壁。
为方便连接体2322与端盖231焊接,可使凹槽2313b的侧壁与第一凹部2313的侧壁之间在垂直于端盖231的厚度方向Z上存在距离,示例性的,该距离不小于1mm。
需要说明的是,在其他实施例中,电极端子232也可以是一体式结构,比如,电极端子232为整体式的柱体结构。
在一些实施例中,请参照图8,图8为图7所示的端盖组件23的局部放大图,端盖231上设有与第一凹部2313连通并贯通第一端面2312a的电极引出孔2314,电极端子232覆盖电极引出孔2314。这种结构使得电极端子232未延伸至电极引出孔2314内,便于将电极端子232安装于第一凹部2313内。
示例性的,电极引出孔2314与第一凹部2313通过第一底壁2313a上的凹槽2313b连通。电极端子232中的端子主体2321覆盖电极引出孔2314,使得整个电极端子232覆盖电极引出孔2314。
在一些实施例中,在端盖组件23中设有绝缘件233的情况下,绝缘件233可以包括第二本体2331和第二凹部2332,第二本体2331位于第一本体2311面向电极组件22(参见图7)的一侧,第二本体2331具有相对布置的第二内表面2331a和第二外表面2331b,第二凹部2332从第二外表面2331b沿面向电极组件22的方向凹陷,第二凹部2332被配置为容纳第一凸部2312。
绝缘件233的第二凹部2332可容纳端盖231的第一凸部2312,可减小第一本体2311与第二本体2331之间的距离,以为电极组件22腾让出更多的空间,有利于提高电池单体20的容量。
可选地,第二本体2331的第一外表面2311b抵靠于第一本体2311的第一内表面2311a。这种结构可使第一凸部2312完全容纳于第二凹部2332内,使得端盖231与绝缘件233更加紧凑,可为电极组件22腾让出更多的空间,进一步提高电池单体20的容量。
进一步地,第一端面2312a与第二凹部2332的底壁之间具有间隙,保证第二本体2331的第二外表面2331b能够有效地抵靠于第一本体2311的第一内表面2311a,降低绝缘件233与端盖231之间形成过定位的风险。其中,第二凹部2332的底壁为第二底壁2332a。当然,在其他实施例中,第一端面2312a也可以直接抵靠于第二凹部2332的底壁(第二底壁2332a)。
在一些实施例中,第二本体2331上与第二凹部2332相对应的位置形成有第二凸部2333,第二凸部2333从第二内表面2331a沿面向电极 组件22的方向延伸至第二端面2333a。第二凸部2333的设置可使第二凹部2332尽可能沿面向电极组件22的方向凹陷,以增大第二凹部2332的凹陷深度。
当然,第二底壁2332a可以与第二内表面2331a平齐;第二底壁2332a也可以沿面向电极组件22的方向超出于第二本体2331的第二内表面2331a,即第二底壁2332a较第二内表面2331a更靠近于电极组件22;第二底壁2332a也可以沿背离电极组件22的方向超出于第二本体2331的第二内表面2331a,即第二内表面2331a较第二底壁2332a更靠近于电极组件22。在图8中,示例性示出了,第二底壁2332a沿面向电极组件22的方向超出于第二内表面2331a,使得第二凹部2332凹陷至第二凸部2333内,可进一步增大了第二凹部2332的凹陷深度,增大了第二凹部2332用于容纳第一凸部2312的空间,使得第一凸部2312可延伸至第二凸部2333更深位置。
需要说明的是,若电极端子232沿面向电极组件22的方向超出于第一端面2312a,比如,电极端子232中的端子主体2321沿面向电极组件22的方向超出于第一端面2312a,在这种情况下,电极端子232可以位于第二端面2333a背向电极组件22的一侧,也就是说,若电极端子232沿面向电极组件22的方向未超出于第二端面2333a。
在一些实施例中,若电极组件22的极耳221与电极端子232通过集流构件24电连接,极耳221可以包括第一连接部2211,集流构件24可以包括用于与第一连接部2211连接的第二连接部241和用于与电极端子232连接的第三连接部242;其中,第二连接部241与第一连接部2211沿端盖231的厚度方向Z层叠设置,第三连接部242位于第二端面2333a面向电极组件22的一侧。
集流构件24的第二连接部241与极耳221的第一连接部2211沿端盖231的厚度方向Z层叠设置,便于将第二连接部241与第一连接部2211连接在一起,比如,将第二连接部241与第一连接部2211焊接在一起。
第三连接部242可以抵靠于第二端面2333a,也可以与第二端面2333a存在间隙。若第三连接部242抵靠于第二端面2333a,一方面可提高集流构件24的稳定性,另一方面可使集流构件24与绝缘件233更加紧凑。
在一些实施例中,绝缘件233还可以包括第三凹部2334,第三凹部2334从第二端面2333a沿背离电极组件22的方向凹陷至第二内表面2331a,第三凹部2334被配置为容纳第一连接部2211的至少一部分和/或第二连接部241的至少一部分。第三凹部2334的设置可减小极耳221与集流构件24的连接部分所占用的壳体21内部的空间,为电极组件22腾 让出更多的空间,以提高电池单体20的容量。
以端盖组件23中的电极端子232为两个为例,绝缘件233的第二本体2331的第二内表面2331a上分别与两个电极端子232相对应的位置则可设置两个第二凸部2333,第三凹部2334可以是形成于端盖231面向电极组件22的一侧并位于两个第二凸部2333之间的区域。
在一些实施例中,请参照图9,图9为本申请一些实施例提供的绝缘件233、集流构件24和极耳221三者的位置关系图,在端盖231的厚度方向Z上,第一连接部2211较第二连接部241更靠近于电极组件22(参见图7),第二连接部241容纳于第三凹部2334内。在另一些实施例中,请参照图10,图10为本申请另一些实施例提供的绝缘件233、集流构件24和极耳221三者的位置关系图,在端盖231的厚度方向Z上,第二连接部241较第一连接部2211更靠近于电极组件22,第一连接部2211容纳于第三凹部2334内。在又一些实施例中,请参照图11,图11为本申请又一些实施例提供的绝缘件233、集流构件24和极耳221三者的位置关系图,第一连接部2211和第二连接部241均容纳于第三凹部2334内,以进一步为电极组件22腾让出更多的空间。
在一些实施例,请参照图12,图12为图8所示的集流构件24的结构示意图,集流构件24还可以包括第四连接部243,第三连接部242与第二连接部241通过第四连接部243连接,第三连接部242与第二连接部241在端盖231的厚度方向Z上间隔设置。对于这种结构的集流构件24而言,第二连接部241可容纳于第三凹部2334内,第三连接部242可抵靠于第二凸部2333的第二端面2333a。
示例性的,第二连接部241、第四连接部243和第三连接部242依次连接形成“Z”形片状结构。其中,在端盖231的厚度方向Z上,第三连接部242靠近第二连接部241的一侧设有用于与电极端子232连接固定的凸起244。当然,第三连接部242上的凸起244可以穿过端盖231上的电极引出孔2314与电极端子232的端子主体2321连接固定,例如,凸起244与端子主体2321焊接。
在一些实施例中,端盖组件中可以不设有绝缘件,此时,端盖为塑胶材质,集流构件与端盖可以直接接触。
