在一些实施例中,第二通道还包括第三缺口,第三缺口开设在三个支撑件中的至少一者上,且第三缺口与第三空间连通。通过在三个支撑件中的至少一者上开设第三缺口,可增大三个支撑件之间形成的第二通道的尺寸,提高电解液对电极组件的浸润速率,进而提高电池单体的生产效率和优率。
在一些实施例中,三个支撑件沿第一方向两两平行间隔分布,或者,三个支撑件沿第二方向两两平行间隔分布,第二方向与第一方向共面且相互垂直。这样,可提高支撑组件装配的自由度,降低支撑组件与第一绝缘件之间的装配要求,提高装配效率,进而提高电池单体的生产效率。

具体实施方式
下面将参照附图更详细地描述本公开的示例性实施方式。虽然附图中显示了本公开的示例性实施方式,然而应当理解,可以以各种形式实现本公开而不应被这里阐述的实施方式所限制。相反,提供这些实施方式是为了能够更透彻地理解本公开,并且能够将本公开的范围完整的传达给本领域的技术人员。
应理解的是,文中使用的术语仅出于描述特定示例实施方式的目的,而无意于进行限制。除非上下文另外明确地指出,否则如文中使用的单数形式“一”、“一个”以及“所述”也可以表示包括复数形式。术语“包括”、“包含”、“含有”以及“具有”是包含性的,并且因此指明所陈述的特征、步骤、操作、元件和/或部件的存在,但并不排除存在或者添加一个或多个其它特征、步骤、操作、元件、部件、和/或它们 的组合。文中描述的方法步骤、过程、以及操作不解释为必须要求它们以所描述或说明的特定顺序执行,除非明确指出执行顺序。还应当理解,可以使用另外或者替代的步骤。
尽管可以在文中使用术语第一、第二、第三等来描述多个元件、部件、区域、层和/或部段,但是,这些元件、部件、区域、层和/或部段不应被这些术语所限制。这些术语可以仅用来将一个元件、部件、区域、层或部段与另一区域、层或部段区分开。除非上下文明确地指出,否则诸如“第一”、“第二”之类的术语以及其它数字术语在文中使用时并不暗示顺序或者次序。因此,以下讨论的第一元件、部件、区域、层或部段在不脱离示例实施方式的教导的情况下可以被称作第二元件、部件、区域、层或部段。
为了便于描述,可以在文中使用空间相对关系术语来描述如图中示出的一个元件或者特征相对于另一元件或者特征的关系,这些相对关系术语例如为“内部”、“外部”、“内侧”、“外侧”、“下面”、“下方”、“上面”、“上方”等。这种空间相对关系术语意于包括除图中描绘的方位之外的在使用或者操作中装置的不同方位。例如,如果在图中的装置翻转,那么描述为“在其它元件或者特征下面”或者“在其它元件或者特征下方”的元件将随后定向为“在其它元件或者特征上面”或者“在其它元件或者特征上方”。因此,示例术语“在……下方”可以包括在上和在下的方位。装置可以另外定向,例如旋转90度或者在其它方向,并且文中使用的空间相对关系描述符相应地进行解释。
在电池技术不断更新以及市场推动下,动力电池的应用越加广泛。动力电池不仅被应用于水力、火力、风力和太阳能电站等储能电源系统,而且还被广泛应用于电动自行车、电动摩托车、电动汽车等电动交通工具,以及军事装备和航空航天等多个领域。随着动力电池应用领域的不断扩大,其市场的需求量也在不断地扩增。
相关技术中,动力电池包括壳体、电极组件、转接片和顶盖。动力电池依据外壳主要可以分为两类:即以金属为外壳的方形或圆柱形锂离子电池,和以铝塑复合膜为外壳的软包电池。金属外壳的动力电池(尤其方形外壳)市场占有率较高。动力电池为防止电极组件与壳体接触造成短路,普遍的方法是在电极组件与壳体之间放置绝缘膜;动力电池的壳体往往是一端开口的容器状,因加工成型等制造因素壳体底部与侧壁连接处内表面呈一定R角。为避免装配过程中电极组件与壳体底部内R角发生干涉,在包裹绝缘膜的电极组件的底部和壳体之间设置底托板,以抬升电极组件避开壳体。
发明人注意到,上述动力电池中的绝缘膜与底托板一般配合使用,在绝缘膜和底托板上开设对应的通孔来解决装配定位和电解液浸润问题,然而,由此会引入另一个风险:电极组件的极片上的活性物质的脱落或其它异物很容易贯穿隔离膜和底托板上的通孔,导致电极组件与壳体短路,一方面形成内部电解池腐蚀铝壳等金属件,另一方面降低电芯容量,缩短电芯寿命。
基于上述问题,发明人经过深入研究,设计了一种电池单体,电池单体包括壳体、电极组件、第一绝缘件、支撑组件和第二绝缘件。电极组件收容于壳体的容纳腔内,第一绝缘部设置于电极组件的一侧且平行于第一方向,第一方向为电极组件的第一极片和第二极片的层叠方向,第一绝缘部设有贯穿所述第一绝缘部的第一通道;支撑组件设置在第一绝缘部的远离电极组件的一侧,支撑组件限定出连通第一通道和容纳腔的第二通道,至少部分第二通道与第一通道正对设置;第二绝缘件的至少部分设置于支撑组件远离第一绝缘部的一侧,且覆盖第一通道和部分第二通道。
在这样的电池单体中,由于第一绝缘部设置在电极组件的一侧,且第一绝缘部平行于电极组件的第一极片和第二极片的层叠方向,支撑组件限定出的第二通道连通第一通道和容纳腔,至少部分第二通道与第一通道正对设置,第二绝缘件的至少部分覆盖第一通道和部分第二通道,使得当第一极片和/或第二极片上的活性物质或其他异物脱落,穿过第一通道和第二通道后不会直接落到壳体上,而是落在第二绝缘件上,从而降低电极组件与壳体之间发生短路的几率,缓解电池单体使用过程中的腐蚀,提升电池单体容量和寿命。
本申请实施例公开的电池单体可以用于电池、用电装置,该电池、用电装置具有较高的容量和寿命。
本申请实施例的电池可以但不限用于车辆、船舶或飞行器等用电装置中。用电装置可以为但不限于手机、平板、笔记本电脑、电动玩具、电动工具、电瓶车、电动汽车、轮船、航天器等等。其中,电动玩具可以包括固定式或移动式的电动玩具,例如,游戏机、电动汽车玩具、电动轮船玩具和电动飞机玩具等等,航天器可以包括飞机、火箭、航天飞机和宇宙飞船等等。
