本申请提供了一种电池单体、电池以及用电装置,能够提高电池单体的安全性能。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供一种电池单体包括外壳、电极组件和至少一个集流件;外壳,设有电极引出结构;电极组件,容纳于外壳内,电极组件包括圆柱状的电极主体和从电极主体引出的极耳;以及至少一个集流件,用于将电极引出结构与极耳电连接。
本申请实施例提供的电池单体,通过设置集流件,并设置极耳通过集流件与电极引出结构电连接,可以改善电池单体的过流能力,有利于提高电池单体的安全性能。
在一些实施例中,电极组件包括极性相反的两个极片和隔离件,每个极片具有活性物质区和非活性物质区,两个活性物质区和隔离件卷绕形成电极主体,非活性物质区卷绕形成极耳极耳处于压缩状态。如此,有利于提高极耳的致密性,降低激光穿过极耳烫伤隔离件的可能性,提高隔离件的结构完整性,进而提高电池单体的安全性能。
在一些实施例中,极片沿卷绕方向的总长度为l,电极主体的沿径向的最大尺寸为d0,集流件的厚度为σ,沿集流件的厚度方向,极耳在被压缩前凸出隔离件的最小尺寸为a,a≥1150σ*d0/l。如此设置,有利于保证极耳在压缩后凸出隔离件的距离满 足一定的范围,并保证极耳压缩后的致密性。如此,在对极耳进行焊接的过程中,降低由于极耳与隔离件的距离过小,造成焊接光如激光透过极耳烫伤隔离件的风险,同时降低由于极耳的致密性较低而造成极耳在工作过程中发生形变而损坏的风险,可以进一步提高电池单体的安全性能。
在一些实施例中,沿集流件的厚度方向,极耳处于压缩状态下凸出隔离件的最小尺寸为h,集流件的厚度为σ,h≥1.5*σ。如此,在对极耳进行焊接的过程中,有利于降低由于极耳距离隔离件的距离过小,造成焊接过程中产生的热量,如激光透过极耳烫伤隔离件的风险,如此有利于提高电池单体的安全性能。
在一些实施例中,沿集流件的厚度方向,集流件与隔离件的最小间距为h,0.1mm≤h≤1.5mm。如此,在对集流件和极耳进行焊接的过程中,降低焊接光,如激光穿过极耳烫伤隔离件的风险,同时可以降低因集流件与隔离件的间距过大而造成电池单体沿集流件的厚度方向的尺寸过大的风险,如此有利于提高电池单体的能量密度。

在一些实施例中,沿电极主体的径向,第一集流件的尺寸为d2,底座的尺寸为d3,1≤d2/d3≤1.7。在降低因底座的尺寸过大而增大电池单体的重量的风险、以有利于实现电池单体的轻量化的同时,还可以降低因底座的尺寸过小而在入壳的过程中,底座对第一集流件产生应力集中而导致第一集流件变形的风险,进而降低电极组件的相邻两圈的极片沿厚度方向发生错位的风险,同时可以降低负极极片的伸出区相对于正极极片产生沿厚度方向的错位的风险。
在一些实施例中,1.2≤d2/d3≤1.5。有利于进一步降低因底座的尺寸过大而增大电池单体的重量的风险、以有利于实现电池单体的轻量化的同时,进一步降低因底座的尺寸过小而在入壳的过程中,底座对第一集流件产生应力集中而导致第一集流件变形的风险,进而降低电极组件的相邻两圈的极片沿厚度方向发生错位的风险,同时可以降低负极极片的伸出区相对于正极极片产生沿厚度方向的错位的风险。

在一些实施例中,d5/d4≥1.2mm。进一步有利于提高第二集流件的稳定性,降低因端盖下压造成第二集流件变形拱起的风险,如此,有利于降低第二集流件和端盖之间存在间隙的风险,同时有利于降低电极主体靠外圈的区域发生由于受压而产生轴向错位的风险、以及有利于降低负极极片的伸出区相对于正极极片产生轴向错位的风险。

可选地,也可以设置壳体311的相对两端均具有开口311a,并设置两个端盖312分别盖合于两个开口311a。并设置其中的一个端盖312具有电极引出孔311b,另一个端盖312通过集流件34与极耳322电连接。或者,设置两个端盖312均具有电极引出孔311b,并将两个电极引出结构33分别设置于两个电极引出孔311b中。

在组装电池单体30时,可先将电极组件32放入壳体311内,再将端盖312盖合于壳体311的开口311a,然后经由端盖312上的电解液注入口将电解液注入壳体311内。
壳体311的形状可以根据电极组件32的具体形状来确定。比如,若电极组件32为圆柱体结构,则可选用为圆柱体壳体311;若电极组件32为长方体结构,则可选用长方体壳体311。可选地,电极组件32和壳体311均为圆柱体;对应地,壳体311为圆筒,端盖312为圆形板状结构。
在一些实施例中,外壳31还可用于容纳电解质,例如电解液。外壳31可以是多种结构形式。
壳体311的材质可以是多种,比如,铜、铁、铝、不锈钢、铝合金等,本申请实施例对此不作特殊限制。
容纳于壳体311内的电极组件32可以是一个或多个。在图4中,容纳于壳体 311内的电极组件32为一个。
可选地,一个电池单体30可以包括一个集流件34,也可以包括两个集流件34,在电池单体30包括一个集流件34的实施例中,集流件34连接一个极耳322和一个电极引出结构33,另一个极耳322和另一个电极引出结构33可以直接连接。
本申请实施例提供的电池单体30,通过设置集流件34,并设置极耳322通过集流件34与电极引出结构33电连接,可以改善电池单体30的过流能力,进而提高电池单体30的安全性能。
在一些实施例中,电极组件32包括极性相反的两个极片323和隔离件324,每个极片323具有活性物质区和非活性物质区,两个活性物质区和隔离件324卷绕形成电极主体321,非活性物质区卷绕形成极耳322,极耳322处于压缩状态。
具体地,极片323和隔离件324卷绕形成后,极耳322包括多圈极耳层,相邻两个极耳层间隔设置。为了实现极耳322与集流件34电连接,需要将极耳322形成致密的结构,为此,可以通过揉平的工艺,将极耳层进行压缩,并使得极耳层之间排布的更加紧密,便于实现极耳322与集流件34的焊接工艺。而在极耳322焊接完成后,可以对电池单体30进行沿轴向的墩压工艺,以进一步压缩极耳层,提高极耳322的致密性。
可选地,极片323和隔离件324卷绕形成圆柱状,并不一定是绝对的圆柱形,可以为近似呈圆柱状。
需要说明的是,极耳322无论是处于何种状态,示例性地,极耳322在开始压缩前的状态,比如极耳322完全展平的状态,或者极耳322在压缩过程中的状态,或者是极耳322压缩完成后的状态,或者是极耳322压缩后再展平的状态,属于本申请描述中的电池单体30的不同状态,因而都在本申请的电池单体30的保护范围内。
经过压缩后的极耳322,其致密性得到一定程度的提升,如此,便于极耳322与集流件34的焊接连接,或者极耳322与电极引出结构33的焊接连接。即提高极耳322与集流件34或者极耳322与电极引出结构33的连接可靠性,同时,压缩后的极耳322致密性得到提升,在极耳322与集流件34或者极耳322与电极引出结构33焊接的过程中,降低激光穿过极耳322烫伤隔离件324的可能性,提高隔离件324的结构完整性,进而提高电池单体30的安全性能。
发明人进一步研究发现,电池单体30在制造的过程中,通常通过焊接的方式实现集流件34与极耳322的连接,然而,在集流件34与极耳322焊接的过程中,由于极耳322沿集流件34的厚度方向X距离隔离件344的距离较近,会烫伤隔离件344,导致电池单体30的安全性能下降。
在一些实施例中,极片323沿卷绕方向Y的总长度为l,电极主体321沿径向的最大尺寸为d0,集流件34的厚度为σ,沿集流件34的厚度方向X,极耳322在被压缩前凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸为a,a≥1150σ*d0/l。
其中,极片323沿卷绕方向Y的总长度,可以为极片323在卷绕之前的长度,或者,可以为极片323卷绕后再展开的长度。
其中,电极主体321的直径可以为,电极主体321在沿垂直于电极主体321的 轴向的截面上,经过卷绕中心的最大尺寸。
极耳322被压缩前凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸可以为极耳322在极片323卷绕形成圆柱状后、被压缩前,极耳322凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸。可以理解的是,极耳322在压缩前凸出隔离件324的尺寸,可以通过对压缩后的极耳322进行展平操作,通过测量展平后的极耳322凸出隔离件324的尺寸,即可得知极耳322在被压缩前凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸。
集流件34的厚度方向X,可以为电极组件32的轴向。沿集流件34的厚度方向X,集流件34各处的厚度不一定是完全相等的,因此,集流件34的厚度σ可以为集流件34沿电极组件32的轴向的最大尺寸,或者,集流件34的厚度σ为集流件34各处沿电极组件32的轴向的平均厚度。
设置极耳322在被压缩前凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸a满足:a≥1150σ*d0/l,即在极片323沿卷绕方向Y的长度l、集流件34的厚度σ以及电极组件32的直径d0确定后,设置极耳322在被压缩前凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸a大于一定的数值。
可选地,可以设置仅正极极耳凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸a满足上述关系,或者仅设置负极极耳凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸a满足上述关系,或者,设置正极极耳以及负极极耳凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸a均满足上述关系。
可以理解的是,在压实密度一定的前提下,极耳322在压缩前凸出隔离件324的尺寸越大,压缩后凸出隔离件324的尺寸也越大。而在极耳322压缩后凸出隔离件324的尺寸一定的前提下,极耳322压缩前凸出隔离件324的尺寸越大,极耳322的压实密度越大,即极耳322越密实。
因此,设置极耳322在压缩前凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸a满足上述关系,有利于保证极耳322在压缩后凸出隔离件324的距离满足一定的范围,并保证极耳322压缩后的致密性。如此,在对极耳322进行焊接的过程中,降低由于极耳322凸出隔离件324的尺寸过低,造成焊接光如激光透过极耳322烫伤隔离件324的风险,同时降低由于极耳322的致密性较低而造成极耳322在工作过程中发生形变而损坏的风险,可以进一步提高电池单体30的安全性能。
下面结合表1说明极耳322在压缩前的尺寸a对电池单体30的性能影响,表中,σ、d0、l以及a的单位均为mm。

参照表1中的实施例1至实施例6以及对比例1至对比例5,本申请实施例通过设置a≥1150σ*d0/l,能够降低电池单体30的隔离件324被烫伤的风险,从而提高电池单体30的安全性能。
在一些实施例中,沿集流件34的厚度方向X,极耳322处于压缩状态下凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸为h,集流件34的厚度为σ,h≥1.5*σ。
可选地,可以仅设置正极极耳压缩状态下凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸满足上述关系,或者,可以仅设置负极极耳压缩状态下凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸满足上述关系,或者同时设置正极极耳和负极极耳压缩状态下凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸满足上述关系。
在集流件34的厚度σ一定的前提下,极耳322在压缩状态下凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸h的最小值为1.5*σ。
在极耳322通过集流件34与电极引出结构33电连接的实施例中,极耳322在压缩状态下凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸,可以为集流件34与隔离件324的最小间距,因此,设置极耳322在压缩状态下凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸满足上述关系,即设置集流件34与隔离件324的最小间距满足上述关系。
可以理解的是,设置极耳322在压缩状态下凸出隔离件324的最小尺寸h满足上述关系,在对极耳322进行焊接的过程中,有利于降低由于极耳322凸出隔离件324的尺寸过低,造成焊接过程中产生的热量,如激光,透过极耳322烫伤隔离件324的风险,如此有利于提高电池单体30的安全性能。
下面结合表2说明极耳322在压缩状态下凸出隔离件324的最小间距h对电池单体30的性能的影响,表中,h和σ的单位均为mm。

参照表2中的实施例1至实施例6以及对比例1至对比例6,本申请实施例提供的电池单体30,通过设置,h≥1.5*σ,能够降低电池单体30的隔离件324被烫伤的风险,从而提高电池单体30的安全性能。
在一些实施例中,沿集流件34的厚度方向X,集流件34与隔离件324的最小间距为h,0.1mm≤h≤1.5mm。
可选地,可以设置与正极极耳对应的集流件34与隔离件324的最小间距满足上述关系,或者设置与负极极耳连接的集流件34与隔离件324的最小间距满足上述关系,或者设置与正极极耳连接的集流件34以及与负极极耳连接的集流件34分别与隔离件324的最小间距均满足上述关系。
可选地,集流件34与隔离件324的最小间距h可以为0.1mm、0.2mm、0.4mm、0.5mm、0.6mm、0.7mm、0.8mm、0.9mm、1mm、1.1mm、1.2mm、1.3mm、1.4mm或者1.5mm等。
可以理解的是,集流件34与隔离件324的间距,可以为极耳322凸出隔离件324的距离,因此,设置集流件34与隔离件324的最小间距h满足上述关系,即设置极耳322凸出隔离件324的距离在上述数值范围内。
集流件34与隔离件324的最小间距h满足:0.1mm≤h≤1.5mm,可以保证集流件34与隔离件324具有一定的间距,以在对集流件34和极耳322进行焊接的过程中,降低焊接光,如激光穿过极耳322烫伤隔离件324的风险。另外,在保证对集流件34和极耳322焊接的过程中,不损伤隔离件324的前提下,通过给h值设置一个上限,以降低因集流件34与隔离件324的间距过大而造成电池单体30沿集流件34的厚度方向X的尺寸过大的风险,如此有利于提高电池单体30的能量密度。
在一些实施例中,0.3mm≤h≤1mm。
可选地,h可以为0.3mm、0.4mm、0.5mm、0.6mm、0.7mm、0.8mm、0.9mm或者1mm等。
进一步设置集流件34与隔离件324的最小间距为h满足:0.3mm≤h≤1mm,有利于进一步降低集流件34焊接的过程中烫伤隔离件324的风险,并进一步有利于电池单体30的能量密度的提升。

可选地,电极主体321的直径可以为经过电极主体321的几何中心,并垂直于电极主体321的轴向的方向。
设置电极主体321的直径d0和集流件34的直径为d1满足上述关系,即设置电极主体321的直径大于或者等于集流件34的直径,如此设置,可以降低由于集流件34的直径过大,而在入壳的过程中与外壳31发生剐蹭而产生金属颗粒的风险。另外,通过设置d0/d1≤1.3,即为集流件34的直径设置一个下限值,以降低集流件34因直径过小而导致电极组件32与集流件34配合的端部的部分区域,如电极组件32的外圈的极片323得不到有效的支撑而在入壳时,相邻两圈的极片323产生错位的风险。
可以理解的是,在电池单体30充电过程中,为了保证正极极片脱出的活性离子能够完全被负极极片接收,以降低电池单体30析锂的风险,通常设置负极极片沿卷绕方向Y的两端均伸出正极极片一定的距离设置。即沿电极组件32的周向,如图5所示,负极极片相对于正极极片具有一定的伸出区323a。而通过设置集流件34的直径具有一个下限值,也有利于保证集流件34对伸出区323a提供有效的支撑,降低电极组件32入壳时,负极极片的伸出区323a相对于其它区域产生相对运动而造成负极极片的伸出区323a损坏等不良的风险。
在一些实施例中,1.05≤d0/d1≤1.1。
可选地,d0/d1可以为1.05、1.06、1.08、1.09或者1.1等。
设置1.05≤d0/d1≤1.1,有利于进一步降低集流件34在入壳的过程中外壳31发生剐蹭而产生金属颗粒的风险。同时有利于降低电极组件32外圈的极片323因得不到有效的支撑而在入壳的过程中相邻两圈的极片323产生错位的风险。另外,还可以进一步降低电极组件32在入壳的过程中,造成负极极片的伸出区323a发生损坏等不良的风险。
在一些实施例中,沿电极主体321的径向,集流件34的尺寸为d1,18mm≤d1≤60mm。

也就是说,本实施例中,第一电极引出结构331为另外设置于外壳31上的结构,具体地,可以在外壳31上设置电极引出孔311b,并将第一电极引出结构331的底座3311的至少部分伸入电极引出孔311b中,并设置第一电极引出结构331与外壳31相互绝缘。

可选地,可以设置第二电极引出结构332与第一电极引出结构331具有相同的结构,并通过第二集流件342与第二极耳3222电连接,此时,电池单体30在工作的过程中,外壳31可以不带电。
可选地,还可以设置第二电极引出结构332与第一电极引出结构331不同,示例性地,可以设置第二电极引出结构332为壳体311的一部分。
设置第一电极引出结构331固定于外壳31上,并设置第一电极引出结构331具有位于外壳31内且与第一集流件341相抵的底座3311,通过底座3311与第一集流件341的抵接,通过底座3311实现第一集流件341与第一电极引出结构331的电连接,有利于提高二者的连接稳定性。
可选地,第一集流件341与底座3311可以同轴设置,或者第一集流件341与底座3311也可以不同轴设置,可以根据需要进行选取。
在一些实施例中,底座3311与第一集流件341同轴设置。
可以理解的是,设置底座3311与第一集流件341同轴设置,便于实现底座3311与集流件34的焊接连接。另外,在入壳时,有利于保证底座3311对第一集流件341的力相对于电极组件32的卷绕中心尽可能的对称分布,降低相邻两圈极片323产生错位的风险。
在一些实施例中,沿电极主体321的径向,第一集流件341的尺寸为d2,底座3311的尺寸为d3,1≤d2/d3≤1.7。

可选地,由于第一集流件341可以呈圆板状,也可以呈方板状,对应地,底座3311可以呈圆板状,也可以呈方板状。在第一集流件341呈圆板状,底座3311也呈圆板状的实施例中,d1即为第一集流件341的直径,d3即为底座3311的直径。
由于电极主体321的径向有多个,在第一集流件341和底座3311呈非圆柱状的 实施例中,沿不同的方向,第一集流件341的尺寸d1不尽相同,底座3311的尺寸d3也不尽相同。因此,第一集流件341的尺寸d1和底座3311的尺寸d3可以为第一集流件341和底座3311沿任一相同方向的尺寸。
可以理解的是,设置1≤d1/d3≤1.7,即设置第一集流件341的尺寸大于底座3311的尺寸,同时在第一集流件341的尺寸固定的前提下,设置底座3311的尺寸具有下限值,如此,在降低因底座3311的尺寸过大而增大电池单体30的重量的风险、以有利于实现电池单体30的轻量化的同时,还可以降低因底座3311的尺寸过小而在入壳的过程中,底座3311对第一集流件341产生应力集中而导致第一集流件341变形的风险,进而降低电极组件32的相邻两圈的极片323沿厚度方向X发生错位的风险,同时可以降低负极极片的伸出区323a相对于正极极片产生沿厚度方向X的错位的风险。
在一些实施例中,1.2≤d2/d3≤1.5。
可选地,d2/d3可以为1.2、1.25、1.3、1.35、1.4、1.45或者1.5等。
如此设置,有利于进一步降低因底座3311的尺寸过大而增大电池单体30的重量的风险、以有利于实现电池单体30的轻量化的同时,进一步降低低因底座3311的尺寸过小而在入壳的过程中,底座3311对第一集流件341产生应力集中而导致第一集流件341变形的风险,进而降低电极组件32的相邻两圈的极片323沿厚度方向X发生错位的风险,同时可以降低负极极片的伸出区323a相对于正极极片产生沿厚度方向X的错位的风险。
在一些实施例中,外壳31包括壳体311和端盖312,壳体311具有开口311a,端盖312用于盖合开口311a,第二集流件342位于端盖312和第二极耳3222之间,第二极耳3222通过第二集流件342与壳体311电连接,第二电极引出结构332为壳体311的一部分。
可选地,可以通过端盖312实现与第二极耳3222的电连接,第二电极引出结构332可以为端盖312的一部分,即通过汇流件连接不同电池单体30的端盖312,以实现不同电池单体30的电连接;或者,可以设置第二电极引出结构332为外壳31与端盖312相对的底壁3111的一部分,即汇流件连接不同电池单体30的底壁3111,以实现不同电池单体30的电连接。

由于第二集流件342需要支撑电极组件32,为了降低因第二集流件342变形导致压伤泄压机构35,进而导致泄压机构35爆破压力下降的风险,需要设置第二集流件342具有一定的抗弯曲能力,因此,设置σ*E≥27000MPa*mm,有利于降低第二集流件342产生变形的风险,进而降低泄压机构35损伤而影响其正常工作的风险,如此,有利于提高电池单体30的安全性能。
在一些实施例中,σ*E≥40000MPa*mm。
