具体实施方式
下面详细描述本发明的实施例,所述实施例的示例在附图中示出,其中自始至终相同或类似的标号表示相同或类似的元件或具有相同或类似功能的元件。下面通过参考附图描述的实施例是示例性的,旨在用于解释本发明,而不能理解为对本发明的限制。
下面参考图1-图31描述根据本发明第一方面实施例的集流体组件200。
如图1-图31所示,根据本发明第一方面实施例的集流体组件200,包括:多层极耳20211、保护板201、连接板101和凸起1012。
具体地,集流体组件200包括多层极耳20211、保护板201、连接板101和凸起1012。多层极耳20211在极耳20211的厚度方向层叠布置,保护板201设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的其中一侧,连接板101设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的另一侧,凸起1012的一端与连接板101相连,凸起1012穿过多层极耳20211并与多层极耳20211电连接,凸起1012的另一端位于保护板201的外侧表面的内侧。
也就是说,在极耳20211的厚度方向上(例如图2所示上下方向上),多层极耳20211层叠设置,保护板201设置在多层极耳20211的一侧(例如图2所示多层极耳20211的上侧),连接板101设置在多层极耳20211的另一侧(例如图2所示多层极耳20211的下侧),连接板101与凸起1012的一端(例如图2所示凸起1012的下端)相连,凸起1012刺穿多层极耳20211,并且凸起1012与多层极耳20211电连接,凸起1012的另一端(例如图2所示凸起1012的上端)位于保护板201朝向连接板101的一层表面内。由此,避免了凸起1012受到损伤,延长了多层极耳20211的使用寿命。
参照图2所示,在上下方向上,多层极耳20211上下层叠设置,保护板201位于多层极耳20211的上侧,连接板101位于多层极耳20211的下侧,连接板101与凸起1012的下端相连,凸起1012的上端 适于刺穿多层极耳20211,凸起1012与极耳20211之间为电连接,凸起1012的上端位于保护板201的下侧表面内。可以理解的是,凸起1012被保护板201所覆盖。
根据本发明实施例的集流体组件200,通过设置覆盖凸起1012的保护板201,避免了凸起1012的顶部超出保护板201,从而避免了凸起1012受到损伤,延长了集流体组件200的使用寿命,提高了极耳20211与凸起1012之间的连接强度,连接稳固,降低了在运输或使用过程中极耳20211与凸起1012发生脱离的可能性,保证了电池单体1000的可靠性,降低了故障率,也保证了电池包的使用安全性,避免了事故的发生。
在本发明的一些实施例中,凸起1012的另一端与保护板201相连。参照图2所示,凸起1012的上端与保护板201相连,凸起1012与保护板201可以通过焊接连接、粘接、卡接、插接等等方式相连。
进一步地,凸起1012的另一端固定于保护板201的内侧表面。参照图2所示,凸起1012的上端固定于保护板201的下侧表面。这样,进一步提高了极耳20211与凸起1012的连接强度,避免极耳20211与凸起1012发生脱离,使得集流体组件200的结构更稳固,保证了集流体组件200的生产良品率,提高了电池单体1000的良品率,降低了电池包的危险性,使用更安全。
在本发明的一些实施例中,凸起1012设于连接板101上,且凸起1012穿过多层极耳20211后与保护板201相连,凸起1012可以与连接板101一体成型,这样,减少了集流体组件200的零部件数量,提高了集流体组件200的整体的连接强度,提升了凸起1012与极耳20211的连接稳定性,降低了集流体组件200的不良品率,延长了集流体组件200的使用寿命。
在本发明的另一些实施例中,连接板101与凸起1012采用分体设置,凸起1012通过焊接、粘接、插接或卡接于连接板101上,这样,连接板101与凸起1012为两个独立的部件,降低了集流体组件200的生产难度,减少了集流体组件200的生产成本,提高了凸起1012与极耳20211焊接过程中的容错率。
优选地,凸起1012通过焊接的方式与连接板101相连,连接方式简单,且凸起1012与连接板101连接稳固,不易损坏。
具体地,凸起1012可以通过电磁脉冲焊接的方式与连接板101相连;多个凸起1012也可以通过摩擦焊接的方式与连接板101相连;多个凸起1012还可以通过超声波焊接的方式与连接板101相连。
在本发明的又一些实施例中,凸起1012设于保护板201上,且凸起1012穿过多层极耳20211后与连接板101相连,凸起1012可以与保护板201一体成型,这样,减少了集流体组件200的零部件数量,提高了集流体组件200的整体的连接强度,提升了凸起1012与极耳20211的连接稳定性,降低了集流体组件200的不良品率,延长了集流体组件200的使用寿命。
在本发明的另一些实施例中,保护板201与凸起1012采用分体设置,凸起1012通过焊接、粘接、插接或卡接于保护板201上,这样,保护板201与凸起1012为两个独立的部件,降低了集流体组件200的生产难度,减少了集流体组件200的生产成本,提高了凸起1012与极耳20211焊接过程中的容错率。
优选地,凸起1012通过焊接的方式与保护板201相连,连接方式简单,且凸起1012与保护板201连接稳固,不易损坏。
具体地,凸起1012可以通过电磁脉冲焊接的方式与保护板201相连;多个凸起1012也可以通过摩擦焊接的方式与保护板201相连;多个凸起1012还可以通过超声波焊接的方式与保护板201相连。
在本发明的一些实施例中,在极耳20211的厚度方向上,凸起1012的高度在0.1mm到3mm范围。也就是说,凸起1012凸出于连接板101的高度在0.1mm到3mm范围,这样,既避免了材料的浪费,又能够保证了极耳20211与连接板101的连接强度,以及电池单体1000的整体结构便于装配成为电池包,节省了安装空间,使得结构紧凑,缩小了电池包的体积,降低了运输成本。
例如,凸起1012的高度可以为:0.1mm、0.15mm、0.2mm、0.4mm、0.55mm、0.6mm、0.85mm、1.0mm、1.1mm、1.2mm、1.35mm、1.4mm、1.5mm、1.6mm、1.7mm、1.8mm、2.0mm、2.2mm、2.45mm、2.6mm、2.7mm、2.8mm、2.9mm、3.0mm等等。
在本发明的一些实施例中,凸起1012的宽度在0.1mm-3mm范围内,由此,既避免了材料浪费,又能够保证了极耳20211与连接板101的连接稳定性。例如,凸起1012的宽度可以为:0.1mm、0.15mm、0.2mm、0.3mm、0.4mm、0.55mm、0.6mm、0.85mm、1.0mm、1.1mm、1.2mm、1.3mm、1.35mm、1.4mm、 1.5mm、1.6mm、1.7mm、1.8mm、1.9mm、2.0mm、2.1mm、2.2mm、2.3mm、2.45mm、2.6mm、2.7mm、2.8mm、2.9mm、3.0mm等等。
在本发明的一些实施例中,集流体组件200包括多个凸起1012,多个凸起1012呈矩阵式布置。阵列排布的多个凸起1012提高了极耳20211与凸起1012的连接强度,避免了在运输或者使用过程中极耳20211与凸起1012相互脱离,提升了电池单体1000的良品率,增加了凸起1012与每层极耳20211之间的接触面积,增大了过流面积,散热均衡,电池包不易发生故障,降低了使用者的危险系数,提高了使用者的使用感受。
在本发明的一些实施例中,凸起1012在连接板101的表面上沿直线和/或曲线延伸。也就是说,凸起1012在连接板101的表面上可以是沿直线延伸,凸起1012在连接板101的表面上也可以是沿曲线延伸,凸起1012在连接板101的表面上还可以是先沿直线延伸再沿曲线延伸,或者先沿曲线延伸再沿直线延伸。由此,满足了不同的复合集流体202的焊接需求,提高了极耳20211与连接板101之间的连接强度,扩展了连接板101的使用范围,降低了连接板101的生产成本。
可选地,多个凸起1012通过超声波焊接与多层极耳20211相连。
参照图29所示,凸起1012在连接板101的上表面沿曲线延伸,凸起1012形成为环形,在凸起1012的上部形成有四个凹槽,四个凹槽在凸起1012的上部均匀间隔布置,且四个凹槽在竖直方向上由凸起1012的上端面向下凹陷,增加了凸起1012与每层极耳20211之间的接触面积,增大了过流面积,提高了连接强度。
在本发明的一些实施例中,多个凸起1012在超声波振动方向上排列的密集程度大于其他方向的密集程度。也就是说,多个凸起1012朝向背离连接板101的方向上凸出,多个凸起1012在超声波振动方向上排列的密集程度最大,多个凸起1012在除了超声波振动方向外的其他方向上的密集程度小于多个凸起1012在超声波振动方向上的密集程度。
使用超声波焊接时,超声波作用于焊接物的接触面会产生每秒几万次的高频振动,沿超声波的振动方向密集排列多个凸起1012,凸起1012易于刺穿多层极耳20211,焊接能量穿透连接板101和极耳20211时更容易,降低了极耳20211与连接板101的焊接难度。
进一步地,多个凸起1012在连接板101的表面阵列布置,在沿超声波振动方向上多个凸起1012排列的密集程度最大。这里需要说明的是,当多个凸起1012在超声波振动方向上排列的密度足够大时,凸起1012形成为在超声波振动方向上延伸的长条形。
在本发明的一些实施例中,在超声波振动方向上相邻的两个凸起1012之间的间距为L1,在垂直于超声波振动方向上相邻两个凸起1012之间的间距为L2,其中,L1和L2满足:0.5mm≤L1≤10mm,0.5mm≤L2≤10mm,且L1≤L2。也就是说,在超声波振动方向上相邻的两个凸起1012之间的间距不大于在垂直于超声波振动方向上相邻两个凸起1012之间的间距,即多个凸起1012在垂直于超声波振动方向的方向上排列的密集程度小于超声波振动方向上排列的密集程度。这样,进一步提升了焊接速度,提高了生产效率,降低了生产成本,优化了凸起1012的排列方式,避免了极耳20211与连接板101之间存在不牢固的焊接点,提高了产品质量。
例如,在超声波振动方向上相邻的两个凸起1012之间的间距L1可以为:0.5mm、0.7mm、0.9mm、1mm、1.5mm、2mm、2.5mm、3mm、3.5mm、4mm、4.5mm、5mm、5.5mm、6mm、6.5mm、7mm、7.5mm、8mm、8.5mm、9mm、9.5mm、10mm等等。在垂直于超声波振动方向上相邻两个凸起1012之间的间距L2可以为:0.5mm、0.7mm、0.9mm、1mm、1.5mm、2mm、2.5mm、3mm、3.5mm、4mm、4.5mm、5mm、5.5mm、6mm、6.5mm、7mm、7.5mm、8mm、8.5mm、9mm、9.5mm、10mm等等。
在本发明的一个实施例中,多个凸起1012在连接板101的表面沿超声波振动方向延伸且在垂直于超声波振动的方向上间隔布置。参照图3所示,多个凸起1012在连接板101的上表面沿超声波的振动方向延伸,并且在垂直于超声波振动方向的方向上间隔布置,凸起1012形成为长条形,增大了极耳20211与凸起1012之间的接触面积,避免了极耳20211与凸起1012焊接不牢固,提高了极耳20211与连接板101之间的连接强度。
在本发明的一些实施例中,在垂直于超声波振动的方向上,相邻两个凸起1012之间的间距L2不小 于凸起1012的宽度d。也就是说,在垂直于超声波振动方向的方向上相邻两个凸起1012之间的间距L2大于等于凸起1012的宽度d,L2可以大于d,L2也可以等于d。由此,能够明确区分连接板101焊接时的放置方向,将凸起1012间距较宽的方向朝向垂直于超声波振动方向的方向放置,既能提高生产效率,又能使得凸起1012与极耳20211焊接的更牢固。
在本发明的一些实施例中,凸起1012在超声波振动方向的长度为L,凸起1012在垂直于超声波振动方向上的宽度为d,其中,L和d满足:L*2+d*2≥X,X为极耳20211的宽度。可以理解的是,凸起1012的周长应不小于极耳20211的宽度。这里需要说明的是,极耳20211的宽度X为极耳20211垂直于超声波振动方向上的边长,参照图16所示,极耳20211左右方向上的长度为极耳20211的宽度。
在本发明的一些实施例中,连接板101与凸起1012采用相同的材料制成。由于材质不同,导体的耐温和电阻等参数也不相同,存在较大的安全隐患,而使用相同的材质,则保证了电池单体1000的可靠性,降低了故障率,也保证了电池包的使用安全性,避免了事故的发生。
可选地,连接板101采用T2纯铜或铜合金等等。
在另一些实施例中,导电连接组件100包括:连接板101和凸起1012,连接板101用于通过超声波焊接与集流体202的多层极耳20211相连,连接板101包括:连接板101和设于连接板101上的凸起1012,凸起1012凸出于连接板101在厚度方向的其中一侧表面,导电连接组件100包括多个凸起1012,多个凸起1012穿过多层极耳20211。
在一些实施例中,极耳20211包括:支撑绝缘层202113和分别覆盖在支撑绝缘层202113厚度方向两侧表面的第一导电层202111和第二导电层202112。参照图31所示,支撑绝缘层202113位于第一导电层202111和第二导电层202112之间,第一导电层202111和第二导电层202112分别覆盖在支撑绝缘层202113的上层表面和下层表面上。
可选地,支撑绝缘层202113为复合高分子绝缘层。
在另一些实施例中,参照图5所示,凸起1012包括两部分:连接段10121和穿刺段10122,凸起1012的下部为连接段10121,凸起1012的上部为穿刺段10122,连接段10121与连接板101相连,穿刺段10122连接在连接段10121的上端。
具体地,凸起1012的穿刺段10122用于刺穿多层极耳20211,凸起1012的连接段10121用于连接多层极耳20211,这样,焊接能量易于穿透连接板101和极耳20211,降低了极耳20211与连接板101的焊接难度,减少了制作工时,提高了极耳20211与连接板101之间的连接强度,连接稳固,保证了凸起1012的刺穿效果的同时,提升连接强度。
下面将参考图1-图31描述根据本发明一个具体实施例的集流体组件200。
参照图16,凸起1012形成为长条形,集流体组件200具有多层极耳20211、保护板201、连接板101和多个凸起1012,每个凸起1012向上凸出于连接板101的上表面,并且多个凸起1012在连接板101的上表面沿超声波振动方向延伸,连接板101的厚度为0.8mm,凸起1012的长度L为13mm,凸起1012的宽度d为0.6mm,凸起1012的高度为0.6mm,相邻两个凸起1012的间距L2为2.4mm,凸起1012在连接板101的上表面沿直线延伸,连接板101与多个凸起1012一体成型,极耳20211具有三层,从上向下分别是:第一导电层202111、第二导电层202112和支撑绝缘层202113,保护板201设在多层极耳20211的上方,凸起1012的上端与保护板201相连。
下面参考图1-图31描述根据本发明第二方面实施例的集流体组件200。
如图1-图31所示,根据本发明第二方面实施例的集流体组件200,包括:集流体202和导电连接组件100。
具体地,集流体组件200包括:集流体202和导电连接组件100,集流体202包括多层极耳20211,多层极耳20211在极耳20211的厚度方向层叠布置,导电连接组件100包括保护板201和连接板101,保护板201设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的其中一侧,连接板101设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的另一侧,其中,连接板101和保护板201中的至少一个上设有凸起1012,凸起1012通过高频振动刺穿多层极耳20211并与多层极耳20211电连接,高频振动的频率在15KHz-40KHz范围。在一个实施例中,连接板101上设有凸起1012。在一个实施例中,保护板201上设有凸起1012。在一个实施例中,连接板101 和保护板201上均设有凸起1012。
也就是说,多层极耳20211在极耳20211的厚度方向层叠布置,保护板201设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的其中一侧,连接板101设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的另一侧,凸起1012的一端与连接板101相连,凸起1012穿过多层极耳20211并与多层极耳20211电连接,凸起1012的另一端位于保护板201的外侧表面的内侧,凸起1012可以形成于连接板101上,凸起1012也可以形成于保护板201上,凸起1012通过振动频率范围在15KHz-40KHz之间的高频振动刺穿多层极耳20211。
例如,高频振动的振动频率可以为:15KHz、20KHz、25KHz、30KHz、35KHz、40KHz等等。
根据本发明实施例的集流体组件200,通过高频振动使得凸起1012刺穿多层极耳20211,高频振动作用于焊接物的接触面,使两个物体表面相互摩擦从而产生热量,形成分子层之间的熔合,进而提升了凸起1012与多层极耳20211之间的焊接速度,保证了极耳20211与连接板101之间稳固连接,延长了集流体组件200的使用寿命。
在本发明的一些实施例中,当高频振动的振幅在5um到100um范围内时,能够进一步提升焊接效果,进一步提高焊接速度,进一步降低焊接难度。例如,高频振动的振幅可以为:5um、10um、15um、20um、25um、30um、35um、40um、45um、50um、55um、60um、65um、70um、75um、80um、85um、90um、95um、100um等等。
在本发明的一些实施例中,凸起1012在连接板101或保护板201的表面延伸,高频振动的振动方向平行于凸起1012的延伸方向。也就是说,凸起1012可以在连接板101表面延伸,凸起1012也可以在保护板201表面延伸,凸起1012的延伸方向与高频振动的方向平行,凸起1012延伸方向与高频振动方向一致,有助于加快凸起1012与极耳20211的焊接速度,减少生产时间,提高生产效率。
参照图29所示,凸起1012在连接板101的上表面沿曲线延伸,凸起1012形成为环形,在凸起1012的上部形成有四个凹槽,四个凹槽在凸起1012的上部均匀间隔布置,且四个凹槽在竖直方向上由凸起1012的上端面向下凹陷,增加了凸起1012与每层极耳20211之间的接触面积,增大了过流面积,提高了连接强度。
在本发明的一些实施例中,优选地,高频振动为超声波焊接产生的振动。由于超声波焊接,焊接速度快,焊接强度高、密封性好,取代了传统的焊接/粘接工艺,成本低廉,清洁无污染且不会损伤软连接片和极耳20211,焊接过程稳定,焊接后导电性好,电阻系数极低或近乎零,焊接时间短,不需任何助焊剂、气体、焊料,焊接过程中不产生火花,环保安全。
在一些实施例中,超声波的焊接压力不小于20N,焊接时间不小于30ms。
在本发明的一个实施例中,连接板101上设有凸起1012,凸起1012的一端与连接板101相连,设在连接板101上的凸起1012通过高频振动刺穿多层极耳20211并与多层极耳20211电连接,凸起1012的另一端与保护板201相连。参照图2所示,凸起1012的下端与连接板101相连,凸起1012在超声波焊接的高频振动下刺穿多层极耳20211,并且凸起1012与多层极耳20211为电连接。这样,焊接时极耳20211在自身重力的作用下,凸起1012更容易刺穿多层极耳20211,进一步加快了焊接速度。
进一步地,凸起1012的另一端通过超声波焊接固定于保护板201的内侧表面或嵌入保护板201内。例如图2所示,凸起1012的上端通过超声波焊接与保护板201固定连接,且凸起1012的上端与保护板201的下侧表面相连。这样,进一步提高了极耳20211与凸起1012的连接强度,避免极耳20211与凸起1012发生脱离,使得集流体组件200的结构更稳固,保证了集流体组件200的生产良品率,提高了电池单体1000的良品率,降低了电池包的危险性。
可选地,凸起1012的上端还可以嵌入保护板201内与保护板201相连。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,保护板201上设有凸起1012,且设在保护板201的凸起1012通过高频振动刺穿多层极耳20211后与连接板101相连。参照图2所示,凸起1012的上端与保护板201相连,凸起1012在超声波焊接的高频振动下刺穿多层极耳20211,并且凸起1012的下端与连接板101相连,凸起1012与多层极耳20211为电连接。由此,焊接时保护板201在自身重力的作用下,凸起1012更容易刺穿多层极耳20211,加快了焊接速度。
在本发明的一些实施例中,集流体组件200包括多个凸起1012,多个凸起1012呈矩阵式布置。具体 而言,多个凸起1012在连接板101的其中一侧表面呈矩阵式布置,阵列排布的多个凸起1012提高了极耳20211与连接板101的连接强度,避免了在运输或者使用过程中极耳20211与连接板101相互脱离,提升了电池单体1000的良品率,增加了凸起1012与每层极耳20211之间的接触面积,增大了过流面积,散热均衡,电池包不易发生故障,降低了使用者的危险系数,提高了使用者的使用感受。
在本发明的一些实施例中,多个凸起1012在高频振动的振动方向上排列的密集程度大于除高频振动的振动方向外的其他方向的密集程度。也就是说,多个凸起1012在超声波振动方向上排列的密集程度大于其他方向的密集程度,多个凸起1012朝向背离连接板101的方向上凸出,多个凸起1012在超声波振动方向上排列的密集程度最大,多个凸起1012在除了超声波振动方向外的其他方向上的密集程度小于多个凸起1012在超声波振动方向上的密集程度。
在本发明的一些实施例中,多个凸起1012沿高频振动的振动方向延伸且在垂直于高频振动的振动方向间隔布置。参照图3所示,多个凸起1012在连接板101的上表面沿超声波的振动方向延伸,并且在垂直于超声波振动方向的方向上间隔布置,凸起1012形成为长条形,增大了极耳20211与凸起1012之间的接触面积,避免了极耳20211与凸起1012焊接不牢固,提高了极耳20211与连接板101之间的连接强度。
在一些实施例中,集流体组件200包括极片2021,极片2021包括多个极耳20211,多个极耳20211层叠设置,极耳20211包括:支撑绝缘层202113和分别覆盖在支撑绝缘层202113厚度方向两侧表面的第一导电层202111和第二导电层202112。参照图31所示,支撑绝缘层202113位于第一导电层202111和第二导电层202112之间,第一导电层202111和第二导电层202112分别覆盖在支撑绝缘层202113的上层表面和下层表面上。具体地,支撑绝缘层202113可为高分子层,由于高分子抗压强度较低,在利用超声波焊接时,超声波无法传导到底部的多层极耳20211上,在没有凸起的状态下焊接时摩擦力不够,导致虚焊而引起焊接不可靠的现象。在本发明的实施例中,由于加入了多个凸起1012,可以增加焊接时摩擦力,改善虚焊而导致焊接不可靠的现象。
电池单体1000可包括至少两个极片2021,一个为正极片,另一个为负极片。层叠设置的多个极耳20211的形成方式可以是将一个极片板材卷绕并使极片板材上的多个极耳20211层叠设置,也可以是利用多个极片板材层叠设置并使每个极片板材上的极耳20211对齐,而最后形成层叠设置的多个极耳20211。多个极耳20211可以是两个极耳20211,或多于两个的极耳20211。
下面将参考图1-图31描述根据本发明一个具体实施例的集流体组件200。
参照图16,凸起1012形成为长条形,集流体组件200具有集流体202和导电连接组件100,连接板101的上表面设有多个凸起1012,并且多个凸起1012在连接板101的上表面沿超声波振动方向延伸,连接板101的厚度为0.8mm,凸起1012的高度为0.6mm,凸起1012的长度L为13mm,凸起1012的宽度d为0.6mm,相邻两个凸起1012的间距L2为2.4mm,凸起1012在连接板101的上表面沿直线延伸,连接板101与多个凸起1012一体成型,极耳20211具有三层,从上向下分别是:第一导电层202111、第二导电层202112和支撑绝缘层202113,保护板201设在多层极耳20211的上方,凸起1012的上端与保护板201相连,超声波的振动频率在15KHz-40KHz范围内,振幅在5um到100um范围内,超声波的焊接压力不小于20N,焊接时间不小于30ms。
下面参考图1-图31描述根据本发明第三方面实施例的集流体组件200。
如图1-图31所示,根据本发明第三方面实施例的集流体组件200,包括:集流体202和导电连接组件100。
具体地,集流体组件200包括:集流体202和导电连接组件100,集流体202包括多层极耳20211,多层极耳20211在极耳20211的厚度方向层叠布置,导电连接组件100包括保护板201和连接板101,保护板201设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的其中一侧,连接板101设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的另一侧,其中,连接板101和保护板201中的至少一个上设有凸起1012,凸起1012包括在高度方向相连的连接段10121和穿刺段10122,连接段10121的一端与连接板101或保护板201相连,穿刺段10122连接在连接段10121的另一端,穿刺段10122构造成适于刺穿多层极耳20211,凸起1012与多层极耳20211电连接。在一个实施例中,连接板101上设有凸起1012。在一个实施例中,保护板201上设有凸起1012。 在一个实施例中,连接板101和保护板201上均设有凸起1012。
也就是说,多层极耳20211在极耳20211的厚度方向层叠布置,保护板201设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的其中一侧,连接板101设在多层极耳20211在厚度方向的另一侧,凸起1012的一端与连接板101相连,凸起1012穿过多层极耳20211并与多层极耳20211电连接,凸起1012的另一端位于保护板201的外侧表面的内侧,凸起1012可以形成于连接板101上,凸起1012也可以形成于保护板201上,凸起1012与多层极耳20211电连接。
凸起1012包括两部分:连接段10121和穿刺段10122,当凸起1012形成于连接板101上时,连接段10121的一端与连接板101相连,连接段10121的另一端与穿刺段10122相连,当凸起1012形成于保护板201上时,连接段10121的一端与保护板201相连,连接段10121的另一端与穿刺段10122相连。穿刺段10122形成有穿刺端,穿刺端用于刺穿多层极耳20211。
参照图2所示,在上下方向上,多层极耳20211上下层叠设置,保护板201位于多层极耳20211的上侧,连接板101位于多层极耳20211的下侧,凸起1012与极耳20211之间为电连接。当凸起1012形成于连接板101上时,凸起1012的上端位于保护板201的下侧表面内,凸起1012包括两部分:连接段10121和穿刺段10122,凸起1012的下部为连接段10121,凸起1012的上部为穿刺段10122,连接段10121与连接板101相连,穿刺段10122连接在连接段10121的上端,当凸起1012形成于保护板201上时,凸起1012的下端位于连接板101的上侧表面内,凸起1012的上部为连接段10121,凸起1012的下部为穿刺段10122,连接段10121与保护板201相连,穿刺段10122连接在连接段10121的下端。
根据本发明实施例的集流体组件200,通过将具有穿刺段10122的凸起1012设置于集流体组件200上,穿刺端易于刺穿多层极耳20211,焊接能量易于穿透连接板101和多层极耳20211,降低了极耳20211的焊接难度,简化了工人的焊接过程,减少了制作工时,降低了人工成本,延长了集流体组件200的使用寿命。
在本发明的一些实施例中,连接段10121的截面面积相同,连接段10121与多层极耳20211电连接。参照图5所示,在上下方向上,连接段10121的截面面积相同,凸起1012的穿刺段10122用于刺穿多层极耳20211,凸起1012的连接段10121用于连接多层极耳20211,这样,焊接能量易于穿透连接板101和极耳20211,降低了极耳20211与连接板101的焊接难度,减少了制作工时,提高了极耳20211与连接板101之间的连接强度,连接稳固,保证了凸起1012的刺穿效果的同时,提升连接强度。
在本发明的一些实施例中,穿刺段10122形成为圆锥体形状或圆台形形状。也就是说,穿刺段10122可以为圆锥体形状,穿刺段10122也可以为圆台形状。
当穿刺段10122形成为圆锥体凸起1012,圆锥体的锥顶角度大于5°且小于150°,这样更有利于均衡凸起1012与极耳20211之间连接强度和焊接难度,避免为了保证凸起1012与极耳20211之间的连接强度忽视焊接难度,或者为了降低焊接难度忽视凸起1012与极耳20211之间的连接强度,从而在保证了凸起1012的刺穿效果的同时,提升连接强度。
例如,圆锥体的锥顶角度可以为:5°、10°、15°、20°、25°、30°、35°、40°、45°、50°、55°、60°、65°、70°、75°、80°、85°、90°、95°、100°、105°、110°、115°、120°、125°、130°、135°、140°、145°、150°等等。
当穿刺段10122形成为圆台形凸起1012,穿刺段10122的顶面半径与底面半径之间的比值不大于0.6。也就是说,穿刺段10122的顶面与穿刺段10122的周面具有一定角度,且穿刺段10122的顶面面积小于穿刺段10122的底面的面积。由此,凸起1012的顶面易于刺穿多层极耳20211,保证了凸起1012的刺穿效果,减少了凸起1012在焊接过程中的融化,提升了电池单体1000的可靠性。
例如,穿刺段10122的顶面半径与底面半径之间的比值可以为:0.6、0.55、0.5、0.45、0.4、0.35、0.3、0.25、0.2、0.15、0.1等等。
在一些实施例中,穿刺段10122的顶面半径不大于1.5mm,穿刺段10122的底面半径不大于2.5mm。
在本发明的一些实施例中,凸起1012在连接板101或保护板201的表面沿直线和/或曲线延伸,穿刺段10122垂直于凸起1012延伸方向的截面形成为三角形或梯形。也就是说,凸起1012可以在连接板101的表面沿直线延伸,凸起1012也可以在连接板101的表面沿曲线延伸,凸起1012也可以在保护板201 的表面沿曲线延伸,凸起1012还可以在保护板201的表面沿直线延伸,凸起1012在连接板101的表面上还可以是先沿直线延伸再沿曲线延伸,或者先沿曲线延伸再沿直线延伸,又或者凸起1012在保护板201的表面上还可以是先沿直线延伸再沿曲线延伸,或者先沿曲线延伸再沿直线延伸。由此,满足了不同的复合集流体202的焊接需求,扩展了连接板101的使用范围。
参照图29所示,凸起1012在连接板101的上表面沿曲线延伸,凸起1012形成为环形,在凸起1012的上部形成有四个凹槽,四个凹槽在凸起1012的上部均匀间隔布置,且四个凹槽在竖直方向上由凸起1012的上端面向下凹陷,增加了凸起1012与每层极耳20211之间的接触面积,增大了过流面积,提高了连接强度。
当穿刺段10122垂直于延伸方向的截面形成为三角形,在截面内,穿刺端的角度不大于120°。也就是说,凸起1012可以为棱柱体。截面为三角形的凸起1012更易于刺穿集流体202的多层极耳20211,凸起1012的刺穿效果能够得到保证,且穿刺端的角度不大于120°,能够进一步保证凸起1012的刺穿效果,进一步降低极耳20211与连接板101的焊接难度。
例如,穿刺段10122垂直于延伸方向的截面内,穿刺端的角度可以为:5°、10°、15°、20°、25°、30°、35°、40°、45°、50°、55°、60°、65°、70°、75°、80°、85°、90°、95°、100°、105°、110°、115°、120°等等。
在本发明的另一些实施例中,在凸起1012延伸方向上的截面形成为三角形,在截面内,穿刺端的角度不大于120°。也就是说,凸起1012可以棱锥体,凸起1012也可以为圆锥体。
例如,在穿刺段10122延伸方向的截面内,穿刺端的角度可以为:5°、10°、15°、20°、25°、30°、35°、40°、45°、50°、55°、60°、65°、70°、75°、80°、85°、90°、95°、100°、105°、110°、115°、120°等等。
当穿刺段10122垂直于延伸方向的截面形成为梯形,截面的上底与下底的比值不大于0.6。也就是说,穿刺段10122也可以为棱台,穿刺段10122也可以为棱柱,穿刺段10122还可以为圆台,凸起1012的下底与连接板101相连,凸起1012的上底小于凸起1012的下底,凸起1012的刺穿效果能够得到保证,且截面的上底与下底的比值不大于0.6,能够进一步保证凸起1012的刺穿效果,进一步降低极耳20211与连接板101的焊接难度。
例如,凸起1012的截面的上底与下底的比值可以为:0.6、0.55、0.5、0.45、0.4、0.35、0.3、0.25、0.2、0.15、0.1等等。
在一个实施例中,凸起1012的截面的上底不大于3mm,凸起1012的截面的下底不大于5mm。例如,凸起1012的截面的上底可以为:0.1mm、0.2mm、0.4mm、0.6mm、0.8mm、1.0mm、1.2mm、1.4mm、1.6mm、1.8mm、2.0mm、2.2mm、2.4mm、2.6mm、2.8mm、3.0mm等等;凸起1012的截面的下底可以为:0.1mm、0.2mm、0.4mm、0.6mm、0.8mm、1.0mm、1.2mm、1.4mm、1.6mm、1.8mm、2.0mm、2.2mm、2.4mm、2.6mm、2.8mm、3.0mm、3.2mm、3.4mm、3.6mm、3.8mm、4.0mm、4.2mm、4.4mm、4.6mm、4.8mm、5.0mm等等。
优选地,多个凸起1012通过超声波焊接与多层极耳20211相连。
在本发明的一些实施例中,在凸起1012的高度方向上,穿刺段10122的截面面积逐渐减小,且穿刺段10122的顶角不大于120°。参照图4和图5所示,在凸起1012的上下方向上,穿刺段10122的截面面积在从下往上的方向上逐渐减小,穿刺段10122底面的截面面积最大,穿刺段10122顶部的截面面积最小,凸起1012更容易刺穿多层极耳20211,降低了极耳20211与连接板101的焊接难度,减少了极耳20211与连接板101的焊接时长,提高了生产效率。
例如,穿刺段10122顶角的角度可以为:5°、10°、15°、20°、25°、30°、35°、40°、45°、50°、55°、60°、65°、70°、75°、80°、85°、90°、95°、100°、105°、110°、115°、120°等等。
进一步地,在凸起1012的高度方向上,穿刺段10122的高度不大于2mm。例如,穿刺段10122的高度可以为:2mm、1.8mm、1.6mm、1.4mm、1.2mm、1mm、0.8mm、0.6mm、0.4mm、0.2mm等等。由此,保证了凸起1012的刺穿效果,降低了极耳20211与连接板101的焊接难度,减少了制作工时,提高了焊接效率。
更进一步地,在凸起1012的高度方向上,连接段10121的高度不大于3mm。连接段10121的高度可以为:3mm、2.8mm、2.6mm、2.4mm、2.2mm、2mm、1.8mm、1.6mm、1.4mm、1.2mm、1mm、0.8mm、0.6mm、0.4mm、0.2mm等等。由此,提高了极耳20211与连接板101之间的连接强度,极耳20211与连接板101不易发生脱离,提高了良品率。
在本发明的一些实施例中,连接段10121与穿刺段10122平滑过渡。由于焊接过程中,极耳20211与凸起1012产生摩擦,连接段10121与穿刺段10122平滑过渡的凸起1012不易损伤极耳20211,延长了极耳20211的使用寿命,保证了电池单体1000的良品率,提高了电池包的安全可靠性。
