具体实施方式
为使本申请实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。通常在此处附图中描述和示出的本申请实施例的组件可以以各种不同的配置来布置和设计。
因此,以下对在附图中提供的本申请的实施例的详细描述并非旨在限制要求保护的本申请的范围,而是仅仅表示本申请的选定实施例。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他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
需要说明的是,在不冲突的情况下,本申请中的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互组合。
应注意到:相似的标号和字母在下面的附图中表示类似项,因此,一旦某一项在一个附图中被定义,则在随后的附图中不需要对其进行进一步定义和解释。
在本申请实施例的描述中,需要说明的是,指示方位或位置关系为基于附图所示的方位或位置关系,或者是该申请产品使用时惯常摆放的方位或位置关系,或者是本领域技术人员惯常理解的方位或位置关系,仅是为了便于描述本申请和简化描述,而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或元件必须具有特定的方位、以特定的方位构造和操作,因此不能理解为对本申请的限制。此外,术语“第一”、“第二”、“第三”等仅用于区分描述,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性。
目前,从市场形势的发展来看,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。
电池单体包括壳体、电极组件和第一绝缘件,第一绝缘件用于分隔电极组件和壳体的底壁,以避免电极组件与壳体的底壁接触短路。为了方便电池单体组装,第一绝缘件设有通孔,通孔用于与组装电池单体的组装装置配合定位,从而将第一绝缘件定位在组装装置上,以使提高组装质量。
发明人发现,电极组件的离子会通过通孔到达壳体,从而导致电池单体内部短路,引发安全问题。为了防止离子通过通孔到达壳体,可以通过在第一绝缘件上粘贴胶带的方式将该通孔封堵。但是胶带长期在电解液中浸泡会脱落,导致封堵失效。此外,电极组件的离子与壳体接触后,还可能与壳体发生化学反应而导致壳体腐蚀。
基于上述考虑,为了降低离子通过通孔的风险,发明人经过深入研究,设计了一种电池单体,电池单体包括用于分隔电极组件和壳体的底壁的第一绝缘件,第一绝缘件设有第一通孔,沿底壁的厚度方向,电极组件和第一通孔在底壁上的投影不重叠。换句话说,电极组件和通孔错位设置,电极组件不会覆盖第一通孔,则电极组件和壳体的底壁之间没有供离子通过的直线通道,消除直线型离子通道,降低电极组件的离子能够通过第一通孔到达壳体的风险,降低电极组件的离子到达壳体而导致电池单体短路的风险,此外,电极组件的离子到达壳体的风险降低,还能降低离子与壳体接触后导致壳体腐蚀的风险。
本申请实施例公开的电池单体可以但不限用于车辆、船舶或飞行器等用电设备中。可以使用具备本申请公开的电池单体、电池等组成该用电设备的电源系统,这样,有利于降低离子通过通孔的风险,降低电池内部短路的风险,从而提高电池单体的安全性能。

端盖组件23包括端盖231和电极端子232,电极端子232设置与端盖231。端盖231用于封盖壳体21的开口211,以形成一密闭的容纳空间(图未示出),容纳空间用于容纳电极组件22。容纳空间还用于容纳电解质,例如电解液。端盖组件23作为输出电极组件22的电能的部件,端盖组件23中的电极端子232用于与电极组件22电连接,即电极端子232与电极组件22的极耳电连接,比如,电极端子232与极耳通过集流构件25连接,以实现电极端子232与极耳的电连接。
需要说明的,壳体21的开口211可以是一个,也可以是两个。若壳体21的开口211为一 个,端盖组件23也可以为一个,端盖组件23中则可设置两个电极端子232,两个电极端子232分别用于与电极组件22正极极耳和负极极耳电连接,端盖组件23中的两个电极端子232分别为正极电极端子232和负极电极端子232。若壳体21的开口211为两个,比如,两个开口211设置在壳体21相对的两侧,端盖组件23也可以为两个,两个端盖组件23分别盖合于壳体21的两个开口211处。在这种情况下,可以是一个端盖组件23中的电极端子232为正极电极端子232,用于与电极组件22的正极极耳电连接;另一个端盖组件23中的电极端子232为负极电极端子232,用于与电极组件22的负极片电连接。

壳体21的开口211与底壁212在底壁的厚度方向X相对设置。电极组件22从开口211进入壳体21内。沿底壁的厚度方向X,第一绝缘件26位于电极组件22和底壁212之间。第一绝缘件26用于分隔电极组件22和底壁212,是指第一绝缘件26位于电极组件22和底壁212之间,以使电极组件22和底壁212不能接触,以避免电极组件22和底壁212接触导致电池单体20短路。
沿底壁的厚度方向X,电极组件22和第一通孔261在底壁212上的投影部分重叠,是指沿底壁的厚度方向X,第一通孔261在底壁212上的投影的部分位于电极组件22在底壁212上的投影的覆盖的区域之外,则电极组件22和壳体21的底壁212之间沿底壁的厚度方向X延伸的通道很小。
沿底壁的厚度方向X,电极组件22和第一通孔261在底壁212上的投影不重叠,是指沿底壁的厚度方向X,第一通孔261在底壁212上的投影的全部位于电极组件22在底壁212上的投影的覆盖的区域之外,则电极组件22和壳体21的底壁212之间没有沿底壁的厚度方向X延伸的通道,相当于消除了电极组件22和底壁212之间的直线型离子通道。
沿底壁的厚度方向X,电极组件22和第一通孔261在底壁212上的投影部分重叠或者不重叠,换句话说,沿底壁的厚度方向X,第一通孔261在底壁212上的投影的至少部分位于电极组件22在底壁212上的投影的覆盖的区域之外,使得电极组件22和第一通孔261错开设置,则电极组件22和壳体21的底壁212之间沿底壁的厚度方向X延伸的通道很小或者没有沿底壁的厚度方向X延伸的通道,降低电极组件22的离子能够通过第一通孔261到达壳体21的风险,降低电极组件22的离子到达壳体21而导致电池单体20短路的风险,此外,电极组件22的离子到达壳体21的风险降低,还能降低离子与壳体21接触后导致壳体21腐蚀的风险。在组装电池单体20时,第一通孔261用于与组装电池单体20的组装装置2200配合定位,从而将第一绝缘件26定位在组装装置2200上,以使提高组装质量,由于沿底壁的厚度方向X,电极组件22和第一通孔261在底壁212上的投影不重叠,则组装电池单体20时,电极组件22和组装装置2200能够互不干涉。
请参照图5、图6、图7,在一些实施例中,电极组件22具有面向底壁212设置的第一端面(图中未示出),第一端面露出电极组件22的极片。
电极组件22的隔离膜223用于分隔正极片和负极片,避免正极片和负极片接触导致电极组件22短路。第一端面露出电极组件22的极片,是指极片第一端面未被隔离膜包覆,电极组件22的离子能够从第一端面向靠近底壁212的方向移动。电极组件22的极耳位于与第一端面相对的第二端面。电极组件22设有极耳的一端未被隔离膜223包覆。一般电极组件22的极耳朝向壳体21的开口211设置,电极组件22的第一端面面向底壁212设置,则极耳位于与第一端面相对的第二端,方便电极组件22的极耳面向壳体21的开口211布置。可以理解为,对于单侧出极耳的电极组件22,电极组件22的与极耳相对的一端也未被隔离膜223包覆。电极组件22未设置极耳且未被隔离膜223包覆的一端面向底壁212设置,即第一端面露出电极组件22的极片,则极片的离子能够从第一端面脱离,由于第一端面面向底壁212设置,并与第一绝缘件26上的第一通孔261错开设置,则电极组件22和壳体21的底壁212之间沿底壁的厚度方向X延伸的通道很小或者没有沿底壁 的厚度方向X延伸的通道,降低电极组件22的离子能够通过第一通孔261到达壳体21的风险,降低电极组件22的离子到达壳体21而导致电池单体20短路的风险,此外,电极组件22的离子到达壳体21的风险降低,还能降低离子与壳体21接触后导致壳体21腐蚀的风险。
电极组件22可以有多种形式,如图5所示,在一些实施例中,电极组件22包括极性相反的第一极片221和第二极片222,第一极片221和第二极片222绕卷绕轴线卷绕,卷绕轴线垂直于底壁212。隔离膜223用于分隔第一极片221和第二极片222。
第一极片221和第二极片222绕卷绕轴线卷绕,以形成卷绕式电极组件。对卷绕式电极组件而言,电极组件22的轴向的两端未被隔离膜223包覆,以使第一极片221和第二极片222沿电极组件22的轴向的两端均露出。电极组件22的全部极耳位于电极组件22的轴向的面向开口211的一端(第二端面),电极组件22的轴向的另一端面向底壁212设置(第一端面),使得电极组件22的卷绕轴向垂直于底壁212(卷绕轴线的延伸方向与底壁的厚度方向X一致),方便极耳和端盖上的电极端子232连接。电极组件22的离子能够沿卷绕轴向的延伸方向向靠近底壁212的方向移动,由于沿底壁的厚度方向X,电极组件22在底壁212上的投影和第一通孔261在底壁212上的投影不重叠,则电极组件22和壳体21的底壁212之间没有沿底壁的厚度方向X延伸的通道,消除了电极组件22和底壁212之间的直线型离子通道,降低了电极组件22的离子能够通过第一通孔261到达壳体21的风险,降低电极组件22的离子到达壳体21而导致电池单体20短路的风险,此外,电极组件22的离子到达壳体21的风险降低,还能降低离子与壳体21接触后导致壳体21腐蚀的风险。
如图6所示,在另一些实施例中,电极组件22包括隔离膜223、多个第一极片221和多个第二极片222,第一极片221和第二极片222极性相反,多个第一极片221和多个第二极片222沿第一方向Y交替层叠,隔离膜223连续弯折且包括多个第一层叠段2231和多个第一弯折段2232,各所述第一弯折段2232用于连接相邻的两个第一层叠段2231,多个第一弯折段2232分布于电极组件22沿第二方向Z的两端,第一方向Y、第二方向Z和底壁的厚度方向X两两垂直。
在这种实施例中,多个第一极片221各自独立,多个第二极片222各自独立。隔离膜223为连续的带状结构。沿第一方向Y,相邻的两个第一极片221之间设置一个第二极片222,相邻的两个第二极片222之间设置一个第一极片221,以使多个第一极片221和多个第二极片222沿第一方向Y交替层叠设置。沿第一方向Y,相邻的第一极片221和第二极片222之间设置一个第一层叠段2231,相邻的两个第一层叠段2231通过一个第一弯针段相连。多个第一弯折段2232的部分分布于电极组件22沿第二方向Z的一端,多个第一弯折段2232的另一部分分布于电极组件22沿第二方向Z的另一端。多个第一弯折段2232包覆第一极片221和第二极片222沿第二方向Z的两端。第一极片221和第二极片222沿第三方向的两端未被隔离膜223包覆,以使第一极片221和第二极片222沿第三方向的两端均露出。电极组件22沿第三方向的未设置极耳的一端面向底壁212设置。第一方向Y、第二方向Z和第三方向两两垂直,第三方向与底壁的厚度方向X一致。电极组件22的沿底壁的厚度方向X的两端未被隔离膜223包覆,极耳位于电极组件22未被隔离膜223包覆的一端,极耳位于电极组件22未被隔离膜223包覆的两端所在方向与底壁的厚度方向X一致并与第一方向Y和第二方向Z垂直,方便极耳朝向壳体21的开口211设置。
由于第一极片221和第二极片222沿底壁的厚度方向X的两端未被隔离膜223包覆,电极组件22的离子能够沿底壁的厚度方向X向靠近底壁212的方向移动,由于沿底壁的厚度方向X,电极组件22在底壁212上的投影和第一通孔261在底壁212上的投影不重叠,则电极组件22和壳体21的底壁212之间没有沿底壁的厚度方向X延伸的通道,消除了电极组件22和底壁212之间的直线型离子通道,降低了电极组件22的离子能够通过第一通孔261到达壳体21的风险,降低电极组件22的离子到达壳体21而导致电池单体20短路的风险,此外,电极组件22的离子到达壳体21的风险降低,还能降低离子与壳体21接触后导致壳体21腐蚀的风险。
如图7所示,在又一些实施例中,电极组件22包括多个第一极片221和第二极片222,第一极片221和第二极片222的极性相反,第二极片222连续弯折且包括多个第二层叠段2221和多个第二弯折段2222,多个第二层叠段2221和多个第一极片221沿第一方向Y交替层叠,各第二弯折段2222用于连接相邻的两个第二层叠段2221,多个第二弯折段2222分布于电极组件22沿第二 方向Z的两端,第一方向Y、第二方向Z和底壁的厚度方向X两两垂直。
在这种实施例中,多个第一极片221各自独立,第二极片222和隔离膜223均为连续的带状结构。多个第二层叠段2221沿第一方向Y层叠设置,相邻的两个第二层叠段2221通过第二弯折段2222连接。沿第一方向Y,相邻的两个第一极片221之间设置一个第二层叠段2221,相邻的两个第二层叠段2221之间设置一个第一极片221,以使多个第二层叠段2221和多个第一极片221沿第一方向Y交替层叠。
隔离膜223分隔第二极片222和多个第一极片221,隔离膜223连续弯折且包括多个第一层叠段2231和多个第一弯折段2232,相邻的第一层叠段2231和第一极片221之间设置一个第一层叠段2231,相邻的两个第一层叠段2231通过第一弯折段2232相连,第一弯折段2232包覆于第二弯折段2222的外侧。多个第一弯折段2232包覆第一极片221和第二极片222沿第二方向Z的两端。第一极片221和第二极片222沿第三方向的两端未被隔离膜223包覆,以使第一极片221和第二极片222沿第三方向的两端均露出。电极组件22沿第三方向的未设置极耳的一端面向底壁212设置。第一方向Y、第二方向Z和第三方向两两垂直,第三方向与底壁的厚度方向X一致。电极组件22的沿底壁的厚度方向X的两端未被隔离膜223包覆,极耳位于电极组件22未被隔离膜223包覆的一端,极耳位于电极组件22未被隔离膜223包覆的两端所在方向与底壁的厚度方向X一致并与第一方向Y和第二方向Z垂直,方便极耳朝向壳体21的开口211设置。

第一通孔261设置于弯折部II和侧壁213之间,是指第一通孔261设置于弯折部II的外周面和侧壁213的内表面围成的空间内。在另一些实施例中,第一通孔261也可以设置在平直区与侧壁213之间。
第一通孔261设置于弯折部II和侧壁213之间,方便第一通孔261的布置。
第一绝缘件26的形状有多种,比如,在一些实施例中,如图4所示,第一绝缘件26为矩形,第一绝缘件26的四角中的至少一角设有第一通孔261。
在电池单体20具有一个电极组件22的实施例中,底壁212上可以设有一个或者多个第一通孔261,多个是指两个及两个以上。图4中示出了底壁212上设有多个第一通孔261的情况,图4中,第一通孔261的数量为两个,两个第一通孔261设置在第一绝缘件26的四角中的两个对角,以提高第一绝缘件26通过第一通孔261与组装装置2200定位配合的稳定性。
如图8所示,在电池单体20包括多个电极组件22的实施例中,不仅第一绝缘件26的四角中的至少一角可以设有第一通孔261,相邻的两个电极组件22的弯折部II之间也可以设置第一通孔261。
在另一些实施例中,第一绝缘件26的外轮廓也可以是与电极组件22的外轮廓匹配的形状。
第一绝缘件26的四角中的至少一角设有第一通孔261,既方便布置第一通孔261,在组装电池单体20的过程,便于通过第一通孔261与组装装置2200进行定位,避免组装过程中电极组件22和组装装置2200(图15中示出)干涉。
如图8、图9所示,在一些实施例中,电池单体20包括并排布置的多个电极组件22;沿多个电极组件22的并排方向,相邻的两个弯折部II之间设有第一通孔261。
电极组件22的两个弯折部II的布置方向与多个电极组件22的并排方向垂直。
相邻的两个弯折部II之间可以设有一个第一通孔261,也可以设有多个第一通孔261。其中,多个是指两个及两个以上。也可以是每相邻的两个弯折部II之间均设置第一通孔261,也可以是部分相邻的两个弯折部II之间设置有第一通孔261。
在相邻的两个弯折部II之间设有第一通孔261的实施例中,第一绝缘件26的矩形的四角 中的至少一角也可以设有第一通孔261(如图8所示)。在另一些实施例中,也可以仅是相邻的两个弯折部II之间设置第一通孔261(如图9所示)。
相邻的两个弯折部II之间设有第一通孔261,方便第一通孔261的布置。
在一些实施例中,相邻的两个电极组件22之间设有两组第一通孔261,两组第一通孔261间隔布置,部分平直部I位于两组第一通孔261之间。
每组包括多个第一通孔261,位于相邻的两个电极组件22中一组第一通孔261中的部分第一通孔261设置于平直区的一端,另一部分第一通孔261设置于平直区的另一端,以使部分平直部I位于两个第一通孔261之间。换句话说,每组第一通孔261中的第一通孔261分别设置在平直部I设置有弯折部II的两端,则相邻的两个电极组件22的平直部I之间可以紧贴设置,不需要留出空间避让第一通孔261,充分利用壳体21的内部空间,有利于提高电池单体20的能量密度。且部分平直部I位于两个第一通孔261之间,还使得通孔分布更加均匀,在组装电池单体20的过程中,若通过第一通孔261定位第一绝缘件26,能够提高定位的稳定性和定位精度,提高电池单体20的组装质量。
如图10、图11所示,在一些实施例中,壳体21还包括侧壁213,侧壁213围设于底壁212的周围;电池单体20还包括第二绝缘件27,第二绝缘件27用于分隔电极组件22和侧壁213。
第二绝缘件27可以固定于电极组件22的外周面,也可以固定于侧壁213的内壁。第二绝缘件27用于分隔电极组件22和侧壁213,是指第二绝缘件27设置于电极组件22和侧壁213之间,避免电极组件22和壳体21的侧壁213接触,以防止电池单体20短路。
第二绝缘件27分隔电极组件22和侧壁213,避免电极组件22和侧壁213接触导致电池单体20短路,以提高电池单体20的安全性。
如图10、图11所示,在一些实施例中,第二绝缘件27与第一绝缘件26一体成型。
在另一些实施例中,第二绝缘件27可以与第一绝缘件26分体设置,也可以是将分体设置的第一绝缘件26和第二绝缘件27连接为整体。
第二绝缘件27与第一绝缘件26一体成型,能够更好的分隔壳体21的底壁212和电极组件22以及壳体21的侧壁213和电极组件22,避免电池单体20短路,以提高电池单体20的安全性能。
请参见图11、图12,在一些实施例中,侧壁213包括沿第四方向M相对布置的两个第一侧壁2131和沿第五方向N相对布置的两个第二侧壁2132;第二绝缘件27包括两个第一分隔部271和第二分隔部272,两个第一分隔部271连接于第一绝缘件26沿第四方向M的两端,每个第一分隔部271沿第五方向N的两端均连接有第二分隔部272,两个第一分隔部271用于分隔两个第一侧壁2131和电极组件22,第二分隔部272用于分隔第二侧壁2132和电极组件22,第四方向M、第五方向N和底壁的厚度方向X两两垂直。其中,第一分隔部271可翻折地连接于第一绝缘件26,第一分隔部271相对第一绝缘件26绕第一折痕262翻折,能够使第一分隔部271和第一绝缘件26处于垂直状态。第二分隔部272可翻折地连接于第一分隔部271,第二分隔部272相对第一分隔部271绕第二折痕273翻折,能够使第一分隔部271和第二分隔部272处于垂直状态。两个第一分隔部271沿第五方向N位于同一端的第二分隔部272相对第一分隔部271翻折后能够重叠设置或者不重叠,以共同分隔第二侧壁2132和电极组件22。
其中,第五方向N可以与电极组件22的两个弯折部II的布置方向相同,也可以不同。在第五方向N可以与电极组件22的两个弯折部II的布置方向相同的实施例中,第四方向M多个电极组件22的并排方向相同。
在电池单体20包括并排布置的多个电极组件22的实施例中,两个第一分隔部271分别位于多个电极组件22形成的整体结构的沿并排方向的两端。
如图13所示,在一些实施例中,电池单体20还包括支撑件28,支撑件28设置于第一绝缘件26和底壁212之间,支撑件28对应第一通孔261设有第二通孔281。
支撑件28可以与第一绝缘件26分体设置,支撑件28和第一绝缘件26也可以分体设置后连接为整体结构的。当然,支撑件28和第一绝缘件26也可以是一体成型。
支撑件28可以通过第二通孔281与组装电池单体20的组装装置2200定位,提高组装质量。支撑件28对应第一通孔261设有第二通孔281,可以理解为,第一通孔261和第二通孔281同轴布置,便于第一绝缘件26和支撑件28之间定位准确,提高组装质量。
支撑件28设置于第一绝缘件26和底壁212之间,能够抬高电极组件22相对底壁212的位置,降低壳体21的侧壁213和底壁212的连接位置与极片干涉而导致极片打皱的风险,从而降低电池单体20短路的风险。
