具体实施方式
为了更好的理解本申请的技术方案,下面结合附图对本申请实施例进行详细描述。
应当明确,所描述的实施例仅仅是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其它实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
在本申请实施例中使用的术语是仅仅出于描述特定实施例的目的,而非旨在限制本申请。在本申请实施例和所附权利要求书中所使用的单数形式的“一种”、“所述”和“该”也旨在包括多数形式,除非上下文清楚地表示其他含义。
应当理解,本文中使用的术语“和/或”仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A, 同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。另外,本文中字符“/”,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
需要注意的是,本申请实施例所描述的“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”等方位词是以附图所示的角度来进行描述的,不应理解为对本申请实施例的限定。此外,在上下文中,还需要理解的是,当提到一个元件连接在另一个元件“上”或者“下”时,其不仅能够直接连接在另一个元件“上”或者“下”,也可以通过中间元件间接连接在另一个元件“上”或者“下”。
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,电极组件由正极极片、负极极片和隔离膜组成。电池单体主要依靠金属离子在正极极片和负极极片之间移动来工作。正极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。负极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。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。
在现有技术中,通常电池单体的极片的集流体上涂布活性物质层和绝缘层。活性物质层和绝缘层颜色不一致,涂布完成后,通过视觉识别活性物质层和绝缘层的交界位置,以确定活性物质层的宽度。
申请人发现,在活性物质层与绝缘层同步涂布时,活性物质层与绝缘层在干燥过程中,会在边界位置产生相互渗透混融,而且绝缘层向活性物质层表面渗透,导致最终干燥后的活性物质层和绝缘层的边界位置界线模糊。
在电池单体中,要求负极极片的活性物质要包覆正极极片的活性物质,即负极极片的活性物质层要比正极极片的活性物质层宽,避免析锂的问题。活性物质层与绝缘层在干燥过程中,由于产生相互渗透混融,产生模糊的边界,使活性物质层位置的判断产生偏差,可能会造成电极组件内的正极极片未能被负极极片完全包覆的情况,从而导致电池单体在该位置析锂,影响电池单体的性能。
基于申请人发现的上述问题,申请人对电池极片涂敷的活性物质层和绝缘层的涂层结构进行改进,将活性物质层和绝缘层部分重叠设置以解决上述问题。下面对本申请实施例进行进一步描述。
图1为本申请所提供用电装置在一种具体实施例中的结构示意图。
如图1所示,本申请实施例提供一种电池B,以及使用该电池B作为电源的用电装置。使用电池B作为电源的用电装置包括车辆A、船舶、小型飞机等设备,该装置采用电池B提供电能,产生驱动该装置的驱动力。该装置也可以同时使用电能和其他类型的能源(例如化石能源),共同产生驱动力。只要能够使用电池B作为电源的装置均在本申请的保护范围内。
如图1所示,用电装置以车辆A为例,本申请实施例中的车辆A可为新能源汽车,该新能源汽车可为纯电动汽车,也可为混合动力汽车或增程式汽车等。比如,车辆A包括马达M、控制器C和电池B。电池B水平设置于车辆主体的底部,控制器C控制电池B为马达M供电,马达M通过传动机构与车辆主体上的车轮连接,从而驱动车辆A行进。
为了满足不同的使用电力需求,电池B可以包括多个电池单体D,其中,多个电池单体D之间可以串联或并联或混联,混联是指串联和并联的混合。电池B也可以称为电池包。可选地,多个电池单体D可以先串联或并联或混联组成电池模块,多个电池模块再串联或并联或混联组成电池B。也就是说,多个电池单体D可以直接组成电池B,也可以先组成电池模块,电池模块再组成电池B。
图2为本申请一些实施例的电池B的分解示意图。
如图2所示,电池B包括箱体F和电池单体D,电池单体D容纳于箱体F内。箱体F可以是多种形状,比如,圆柱体、长方体等。当然,箱体F可以是多种结构。
在一些实施例中,箱体F可以包括上箱体F1和下箱体F2,上箱体F1与下箱体F2相互盖合,以限定出用于容纳电池单体D的容纳空间。
在电池B中,电池单体D可以是一个、也可以是多个。若电池单体D为多个,多个电池单体D之间可串联或并联或混联,混联是指多个电池单体D中既有串联又有并联。
图3为本申请一些实施例的电池单体D的分解示意图。
如图3所示,电池单体D一般包括电极组件100、壳体200和端盖组件300,端盖组件300盖合于壳体200的开口,以为电极组件100和电解液提供一个密闭空间。壳体200可以是多种形状,比如,圆柱体、长方体等。壳体200的形状可根据电极组件100的具体形状来确定。比如,若电极组件100为圆柱体结构,壳体200则可选用为圆柱体结构;若电极组件100为长方体结构,壳体100则可选用长方体结构。可以理解的是,壳体200的形状与电极组件100的形状也可以不同。
示例性的,在图3中,壳体200为一端开口的空心长方体结构。壳体200的材质也可以是多种,比如,塑料、铜、铁、铝、不锈钢、铝合金等,本申请实施例对此不作特殊限制。
如图3所示,端盖组件300用于封闭壳体200的开口。组装电池单体D时,先将电极组件100置于壳体200内,再将电极组件100与端盖组件300电连接并固定后,将两侧端盖组件300与壳体200固定连接,完成电池单体D的组装。
图4为本申请一种具体实施例的电极组件100的截面示意图。
如图4所示,本申请一种具体实施例中的电极组件100由电池极片1和隔离膜2卷绕而成,电池极片1包括正极极片1a和负极极片1b,隔离膜2是介于正极极片1a和负极极片1b的绝缘体。
图5为图4中的电极组件100的E-E向剖视图的局部示意图。
如图5所示,正极极片1a包括正极集流体11a和正极活性物质层12a,正极集流体11a包括涂覆区和未涂覆区,正极活性物质层12a涂覆于正极集流体11a涂覆区的表面,沿极片宽度方向X,正极集流体11a的未涂覆区凸出于涂覆区形成正极极耳111a(见图6)。以锂离子电池为例,正极集流体11a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。沿极片厚度方向Z,正极活性物质层12a可以只涂覆正极集流体11a的一个表面,也可以在正极集流体11a两个表面同时涂覆正极活性物质层12a,图4中所显示的正极集流体11a两个表面同时涂覆正极活性物质层12a。
负极极片1b包括负极集流体11b和负极活性物质层12b,负极集流体11b包括涂覆区和未涂覆区,负极活性物质层12b涂覆于负极集流体11b的表面,沿极片宽度方向X,负极集流体11b的未涂覆区凸出于涂覆区形成正极极耳111b(见图6)。负极集流体11b的材料可以为铜,负极活性物质可以为碳或硅等。沿极片厚度方向Z,负极活性物质层12b可以只涂覆负极集流体11b的一个表面,也可以在负极集流体11b两个表面同时涂覆负极活性物质层12b,图4中所显示的负极集流体11b两个表面同时涂覆正极活性物质层12a。
图6为本申请一些实施例的正极极片1a与负极极片1b局部展开对比图。
在一些实施例中,电极组件100由正极极片1a和负极极片1b,以及介于正极极片1a和负极极片1b之间的隔离膜2卷绕而成,电极组件100展开后,形成正极极片1a、隔离膜2、和负极极片1b层叠的结构。图5中显示了电极组件100中的正极极片1a和负极极片1b展开的局部示意图,为了清楚表示正极极片1a和负极极片1b的尺寸关系,图6中并未显示展开的隔离膜2,并在图中虚线的右侧去除了部分负极极片1b,以显示正极极片1a的尺寸状态。
如图6所示,正极极片1a的涂覆区上涂覆有正极活性物质层12a,未涂覆区形成正极极耳111a,正极极耳111a沿极片长度方向Y间隔设置,在进行电极组件100的卷芯时,使多个正极极耳111a重叠。负极极片1b的涂覆 区上涂覆有负极活性物质层12b,未涂覆区形成负极极耳111b,负极极耳111b沿极片长度方向Y间隔设置,在组装成电极组件100时,使多个负极极耳111b重叠。图6中并未显示正极极片1a和负极极片1b的全长,也未显示全部的正极极耳111a和负极极耳111b。
沿极片宽度方向X,负极极片1b的负极活性物质层12b要包覆正极极片1a的正极活性物质层12a,即正极活性物质层12a的宽度H1要小于负极活性物质层1b的宽度H2,从而使正极活性物质层12a与负极活性物质层1b至少保持宽度差ΔH,为满足电池的性能需要,宽度差ΔH一般要求满足0≤ΔH≤2.5mm,从而能够保证负极极片1b的负极活性物质层12b包覆正极极片活性物质层12a,减小产生析锂问题的风险。
图7为电池极片1在一个实施例中的剖视图。
如图7所示,在一个具体实施例中,本申请的电池极片1的集流体11沿极片厚度方向Z的两侧表面均涂覆有活性物质层12和绝缘层14,这只是一个示例,也可以只在集流体11的一个表面上涂覆活性物质层12和绝缘层14。
在一些实施例中,电池极片1包括集流体11,集流体11至少一面包括相连的未涂覆区和涂覆区,涂覆区涂敷有活性物质层12和绝缘层14,绝缘层14位于活性物质层12靠近未涂覆区一侧,未涂覆区形成极耳111。电池极片1可以是正极极片1a,也可以是负极极片1b,正极极片1a及负极极片1b均可适用以下实施例中的结构。当电池极片1为正极极片1a时,集流体11为正极集流体11a,极耳111为正极极耳111a,当电池极片1为负极极片1b时,集流体11为负极集流体11b,极耳111为负极极耳111b。
如图7所示,绝缘层14包括相连的第一部分141和第二部分142,第二部分142位于绝缘层14靠近活性物质层12一侧的边缘区域,活性物质层12被配置为覆盖第二部分142且未覆盖第一部分141,以使活性物质层12与绝缘层14沿极片厚度方向Z的投影部分重叠。
活性物质层12的边缘与第一部分141相接,并形成边界线15。第二部分142被活性物质层12覆盖,第二部分142的不会渗透至活性物质层12的 上表面,不会在绝缘层14靠近活性物质层12一侧的边缘区域由于涂层浆料混融而产生界线模糊的问题,从而形成清晰的边界线15。
图8为图7中的Ⅰ部放大图。
如图8所示,沿极片厚度方向Z,绝缘层14的厚度w1不大于活性物质层12的厚度w2,即w1≤w2。本实施例中,绝缘层14的厚度w1是指绝缘层14的最大厚度。活性物质层12的厚度w2的优选范围为50-400微米(μm),绝缘层的厚度w1优选范围3-90μm,在活性物质层12覆盖第二部分142时,第二部分142的涂层浆料与活性物质层12内部的涂层浆料接触,由于活性物质层12的厚度w2与绝缘层14的厚度w1的存在较大的厚度差,即使第二部分142的涂层浆料与活性物质层12内部的涂层浆料发生混融,也不会导致混融的浆料渗出至活性物质层12的上表面。
在一个具体实施例中,第一部分141的厚度w4即为绝缘层14的最大厚度,即w4=w1。
第二部分142的厚度w3不大于第一部分141的厚度w4,即w3≤w4。第二部分142的厚度w3小于外露的活性物质层12外部的第一部分的141的厚度w4,使具有更小厚度的第二部分142伸入活性物质层12内部,第二部分的厚度w3较小,不会使活性物质层12覆盖第二部分142的区域的涂层厚度明显增加而形成鼓边,从而使电池极片1的整体厚度保证一致,在将涂布后的电池极片1进行卷绕成极片卷料时,减小了由于电池极片1存在鼓边而使电池极片1在收卷时发生胀破断带的风险。
沿极片厚度方向Z,第二部分142朝向集流体11的表面与集流体11表面的最短距离w5的范围应满足0≤w5≤0.9×w2,即第二部分142朝向集流体11的表面与集流体11表面的最短距离w5应小于等于0.9倍的活性物质层12的厚度w2。在一个具体实施例中,第二部分142朝向集流体11的表面1421与集流体11表面的最短距离w5为0-90μm。
第二部分142朝向集流体11的表面即第二部分142沿极片厚度方向Z的下表面,第二部分142远离集流体11的表面即第二部分142沿极片厚度方 向Z的上表面。
第二部分142伸入活性物质层12内部,活性物质层12可以包覆第二部分142沿极片厚度方向Z的上表面和下表面,以及第二部分142沿极片宽度方向X伸入活性物质层12内部的端面。活性物质层12也可以只包覆第二部分142沿极片厚度方向Z的上表面和端面,此时,第二部分142朝向集流体11的表面与集流体11表面的最短距离w5为0,即第二部分142朝向集流体11的表面直接涂覆在集流体11上。
第二部分142朝向集流体11的表面与集流体11表面的最短距离w5的设置,能够保证第二部分142充分靠近集流体11,并远离活性物质层12的外表面,减小第二部分142的涂层浆料渗透至活性物质层12的外表面的可能性。
在一些实施例中,沿极片厚度方向Z,第二部分142远离集流体11的表面与活性物质层12外表面的距离w6的范围应满足0.01×w2≤w6≤0.9×w2。在一个具体实施例中,第二部分142远离集流体11的表面与活性物质层12外表面的距离w6不小于20μm。
第二部分142远离集流体11的表面与活性物质层12外表面的距离w6的设置,能够保证第二部分142充分远离活性物质层12的外表面,减小第二部分142的涂层浆料渗透至活性物质层12的外表面的可能性。
在一些实施例中,第二部分142的厚度w3范围应满足0.01×w2≤w3≤0.9×w2。在一个具体实施例中,第二部分142的厚度w3为3-90μm。
将第二部分142的厚度w3设置的相对较小,使活性物质层12与第二部分142重叠区域的涂层厚度变化也会相对较小,不会使活性物质层12与绝缘层142的重叠区域的涂层厚度明显增加而形成鼓边,从而使电池极片1的整体厚度保证一致,在将电池极片1进行电极组件100的卷绕时,减小了由于电池极片1鼓边的风险。
通常极耳111是通过对电池极片1的基材模切得到,极耳111的模切位置需位于绝缘层14上,因此绝缘层14需要具有一定宽度,在一些实施例中,第一部分141的宽度L1的范围为0.1-15毫米(mm),以确保极耳111的模切 位置位于第一部分141上。
沿活性物质层12与绝缘层14排列的方向(极片宽度方向X),第二部分142的宽度L2不大于第一部分141的宽度L1,即L2≤L1。在一些实施例中,第二部分142的宽度L2的范围为0.01-2mm,确保活性物质层12与第二部分142在极片厚度方向Z的投影重叠,又能够避免第二部分142与第一涂层12的重叠宽度过宽。
图9为电池极片1在另一个实施例中的剖视图。
如图9所示,在一些实施例中,第二部分142远离集流体11的表面为斜面1421,且斜面1421沿着第一部分141向活性物质层12延伸的方向,逐渐靠近集流体11。此时,活性物质层12沿极片厚度方向的投影与第二部分142重叠,第二部分142的厚度w3从与第一部分141交接的位置沿极片宽度方向X的反方向逐渐减小,减小了活性物质层12与第二部分142的重叠区域的涂层总厚度增加而形成鼓边的风险。并且,在同时涂覆活性物质层12和第二部分142后,在涂层干燥过程中,活性物质层12收缩时会沿倾斜的斜面1421产生滑移,减小了第二部分142的涂层浆料向活性物质层12的渗透混融。
图9中,沿极片厚度方向Z,第一部分141的厚度w4等于活性物质层的厚度w2,这只是一个示例。
图10为电池极片1在又一个实施例中的剖视图。
如图10所示,在另一些实施例中,第二部分142远离集流体11的表面为斜面1421,且沿极片厚度方向Z,第一部分141的厚度w4小于活性物质层的厚度w2。在这些实施例中,由于绝缘层14具有比活性物质层12更小的厚度,能够减小涂层浆料混融而导致在活性物质层12与绝缘层142的重叠区域的涂层厚度明显增加而形成鼓边的问题。
当然本申请中的第二部分142的形状并不限于上述实施例中描述的情况,其可以是本申请中各实施例的各种结构形状的组合。
本申请的提供的电池极片1,其上涂覆有活性物质层12和绝缘层14,绝缘层14包括相连的第一部分141和第二部分142,第二部分142位于绝缘 层14靠近活性物质层12一侧的边缘区域,活性物质层12被配置为覆盖第二部分142,以使活性物质层12与绝缘层14沿极片厚度方向Z的投影部分重叠,第二部分142不会渗透至活性物质层12的上表面,不会在绝缘层14靠近活性物质层12一侧的边缘区域由于涂层浆料混融而产生界面模糊的问题,从而形成清晰的边界线15。
使用本申请的电池极片1所组成的电极组件100、电池单体D及电池B,能够确保负极极片1b包覆正极极片1a,减小电池析锂的风险,提高电池的安全性能。
以上所述仅为本申请的优选实施例而已,并不用于限制本申请,对于本领域的技术人员来说,本申请可以有各种更改和变化。凡在本申请的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本申请的保护范围之内。
