极片组件、电极组件、电池单体、电池和用电设备 技术领域
本公开涉及电池技术领域,特别是涉及一种极片组件、电极组件、电池单体、电池和用电设备。
背景技术
在电池领域内,电池的极片在极片及电极组件的生产、加工的过程中其端部区域可能会产生毛刺。例如,生产卷绕式电极组件时,正极极片、负极极片和隔膜按预定次序层叠后在卷绕设备上连续卷绕至合适的大小,然后通过卷绕设备上的切刀切断正极极片、负极极片和隔膜,卷绕后的正极极片、负极极片和隔膜形成电极组件,正极极片或负极极片的主端面附近就易产生毛刺。具有端部区域具有毛刺的极片或电极组件的电池单体在使用过程中会发生膨胀,随之而来的是在正极极片和负极极片的具有毛刺的相应端部区域附近易发生内部短路。

在本公开的极片组件中,在极片组件的极片的端部区域处设置固定于极片主体上的防护层,防护层包括沿端部区域的延伸方向覆盖端部区域的防护层主体段,该防护层32的主端面主体防护部3211和两个侧面主体防护部3212可以将端部区域的主端面和侧面包裹起来,从而将极片主体的端部区域的毛刺与隔膜隔离,利于减少端部区域处的毛刺刺穿隔膜的现象,从而利于减少隔膜被刺穿引发的正极极片主体和负极极片主体之间的内部短路,提高包括该极片组件的电极组件、电池单体、电池和用电设备的安全性能。
在一些实施例的极片组件中,侧面主体防护部的位于端部区域的主端面内侧的边缘与端部区域的主端面的最大距离为2mm至100mm。
合理设置侧面主体防护部的位于端部区域的主端面内侧的边缘与端部区域的主端面的最大距离,一方面使防护层与端部区域的侧面的接触面积合理,以利于保证防护层与端部区域的主端面和侧面结合强度,防止防护层部分或全部脱落,影响防护效果,另一方面,可以限制防护层覆盖端部区域的侧面的面积,限制因设置防护层引起的电池容量损失。
在一些实施例的极片组件中,防护层包括粘贴于极片主体的胶带。
采用胶带制作防护层,胶带本身易于制备,形状和尺寸易于满足设计要求,可在与极片主体组装前制备好胶带,胶带易于与极片主体组装,胶带在极片主体上的组装位置也易于控制,极片组件的加工效率较高,对电极组件的制作过程影响较小。

使主端面主体防护部与极片的端部区域的主端面贴合并连接,使侧面主体防护部与端部区域的靠近主端面的侧面贴合并连接,可以减少防护层占用的空间,增加防护层与端部区域的结合面积,利于在满足防护层与极片的结合强度的基础上减小防护层的大小,节约防护层的材料。
在一些实施例的极片组件中,防护层还包括与防护层主体段的沿端部区域的延伸方向的端部连接的防护层延伸段。

以上针对侧面主体防护部3212的描述中,虽然均是结合图10至图14以防护层32由胶带320制作的实施方式为例进行说明,然而,图10至图14所示的图形亦可视为对其它方式,如粘贴或热压带状材料,涂覆防护材料的方式所形成的防护层32的展开图形,因此,以上对侧面主体防护部3212的描述亦适用于采有其它方式形成的防护层32。

将防护层延伸段322的长度L2设置为小于或等于20mm,可以在对端部区域311A的延伸方向的具有防护层延伸段322的端部进行防护的同时,防止因对极片组件30进行进一步加工或对极片组件30所在的电极组件或电池单体进行组装的过程中因触碰防护层延伸段322而使极片31产生附加的局部受力,防止极片31因此而变形所引发的析锂等风险。
在一些实施例的极片组件30中,如图5所示,沿端部区域311A的延伸方向,两个防护层延伸段322分别连接于防护层主体段321的两端,两个防护层延伸段322的长度 L2相等。
在防护层主体段321的两端均设置防护层延伸段322可以对端部区域311A的延伸方向的两端部均进行防护,防止端部区域311A的两端的毛刺刺穿隔膜,利于进一步减少端部区域311A处的毛刺刺穿隔膜的现象,从而利于进一步减少隔膜被刺穿引发的正极极片主体和负极极片主体内部短路,提高包括该极片组件30的电极组件、电池单体、电池和用电设备的安全性能。使两个防护层延伸段322的长度L2相等,利于将两端的防护层延伸段322的长度L2均设置为适当的长度,利于对端部区域311A的延伸方向的两端均进行有效防护,也利于防止单端防护层延伸段322长度不当而使极片31因该端防护层延伸段322受力而产生附加的局部受力,防止极片31因此而变形所引发的析锂等风险。
在一些实施例的极片组件30中,如图4和图5所示,防护层延伸段322包括朝向端部区域311A的主端面3111A的延伸表面的主端面延伸防护部3221和朝向端部区域311A的侧面3111B的延伸表面的侧面延伸防护部3222。
将防护层延伸段322设置为包括主端面延伸防护部3221和侧面延伸防护部3222利于使防护层延伸段322与防护层主体段321具有相同的结构形式,在采用带状材料,如胶带320,作为主材形成防护层32时,无需对防护层延伸段322作特殊设计或处理即可在设置防护层主体段321时一并形成防护层延伸段322,可以提高极片组件30的加工效率。
如图4至图14所示,下面以应用胶带320制作防护层32为例说明防护层延伸段322及其结构。图10至图14中,如前所述,各虚线代表胶带320粘贴于电极主体311后与端部区域311A的主端面3111A、侧面3111B和侧端面的各交线及其延伸部分。胶带320与电极主体311组装后构成防护层32,位于上、下两侧的横向虚线之间的中部胶带段3201在胶带320与电极主体311组装后构成防护层32的防护层主体段321。进一步地,如图10至图14所示,位于中部胶带段3201的上下两侧的端部胶带段3202在胶带320与电极主体311组装后构成防护层32的防护层延伸段321。每个端部胶带段3202的横向中部的第二中部胶带部32021在胶带320与电极主体311组装后构成防护层延伸段321的主端面延伸防护部3211。每个端部胶带段3202的第二中部胶带部32021的横向两侧的两个第二外侧胶带部32022在胶带320与电极主体311组装后构成防护层延伸段321的侧面延伸防护部3222。
在一些未图示的实施例中,防护层延伸段322包括覆盖端部区域311A的沿端部区域311A的延伸方向的侧端面3111C的侧端面防护部。
防护层延伸段322设置为包括覆盖端部区域311A的沿端部区域311A的延伸方向 的侧端面3111C的侧端面防护部,可以对沿端部区域311A的延伸方向的侧端面3111C与隔膜之间进行更好的隔离。
以上防护层延伸段322的结构形式均能实现防护层延伸段322对端部区域311A的沿延伸方向的相应端部的毛刺与隔膜进行隔离。
在一些实施例的极片组件30中,如图4和图5所示,至少一个端部区域311A位于极片31的沿极片主体311的长度方向X的一端,端部区域311A的延伸方向为极片主体311的宽度方向Y。
一般情况下,卷绕式电极组件中的电极极片绕与宽度方向平行的轴线卷绕。端部区域311A位于极片31的沿极片主体311的长度方向X的一端,端部区域311A的延伸方向为极片主体311的宽度方向Y,极片组件30作为卷绕式电极组件中的电极极片时,端部区域311A位于卷绕式电极组件的径向内端或径向外端,此时防护层32除承担防止毛刺刺破隔膜的功能外,还可以对电极组件承担一定的支撑功能,相比于无防护层的卷绕式电极组件而言,本公开实施例的卷绕式电极组件的强度更高,可减少电极组件因强度不足发生塌陷的现象,从而利于进一步提高卷绕式电极组件及具有该卷绕式电极组件的电池单体和电池的安全性能。
在图4至图9所示的实施例中,两个端部区域311A分别位于极片31的沿极片主体311的长度方向X的两端,每个端部区域311A处均对应设置一防护层32。端部区域311A的延伸方向为极片主体311的宽度方向Y。即防护层32沿端部区域311A的延伸方向延伸,并从端部区域311A的沿其延伸方向的两个侧端面向外侧伸出一段距离。
在一些实施例的极片组件30中,极片31为正极极片或负极极片。
极片31可以为正极极片,也可以为负极极片。当极片组件30的极片31为正极极片时,极片组件30形成正极极片组件,其可以代替不包括防护层的常规正极极片参与电极组件制作。当极片组件30的极片31为负极极片时,极片组件30形成为负极极片组件,其可以代替不包括防护层的常规负极极片参与电极组件制作。
极片主体311包括极片31的涂敷活性物质层的集流体及其上的活性物质层。极片31为正极极片时,极片主体311包括极片31的涂敷正极活性物质层的正极集流体及其上的正极活性物质层;极片31为负极极片时,极片主体311包括极片31的涂敷负极活性物质层的负极集流体及其上的负极活性物质层。
极片31还包括与极片主体311的集流体连接的极耳312。极耳312的数量为多个,图5中仅示出的其中一个极耳312。
电极组件包括极片组件30时,如果电极组件为卷绕式电极组件,极片31卷绕 后,极片主体311作为构成图3所示的电极组件24的电极组件主体241的组成部分,多个极耳312重叠构成图3所示的正极极耳242(当极片31为正极极片时)或负极极耳243(当极片31为负极极片时)。
极片组件30包括正极极片时可以作为传统正极极片的替代物制作电极组件,此时防护层可以防止正极极片的毛刺刺穿隔膜,极片组件30包括负极极片时可以作为传统负极极片的替代物制作电极组件,此时防护层可以防止负极极片的毛刺刺穿隔膜,因此,无论极片是正极极片还是负极极片,均能提高包括该极片组件30的电极组件、电池单体、电池和用电设备的安全性能。
本公开实施例还提供一种电极组件,包括本公开实施例的极片组件30。
本公开实施例的电极组件具有本公开实施例的极片组件30具有的优点。
电极组件例如为图3所示的卷绕式电极组件24。
在一些实施例的电极组件中,电极组件为卷绕式电极组件,极片组件30的端部区域311A的延伸方向与卷绕式电极组件的轴线平行。图4所示的极片组件30的卷绕方式即对应于该实施例描述的电极组件中极片组件30的卷绕方式。
电极组件为卷绕式电极组件,将极片组件30的端部区域311A的延伸方向设置为与卷绕式电极组件的轴线平行,端部区域311A位于卷绕式电极组件的径向内端或径向外端,此时防护层32除承担防止毛刺刺破隔膜的功能外,还可以对电极组件承担一定的支撑功能,相比于在电极主体的端部区域不设置防护层的卷绕式电极组件而言,本公开实施例的卷绕式电极组件的强度更高,可减少电极组件因强度不足发生塌陷的现象,从而利于进一步提高卷绕式电极组件及具有该卷绕式电极组件的电池单体和电池的安全性能。
在未图示的电极组件的实施例中,本公开实施例的极片组件30亦可应用于层叠式电极组件。极片组件30应用在层叠式电极组件中时,与极片组件30应用在卷绕式电极组件类似地,由于极片组件30的极片主体311的端部区域311A的主端面3111A及相邻表面被防护层32包裹,端部区域311A的主端面及相邻表面的毛刺不易刺穿隔膜。
本公开实施例还提供一种电池单体,包括本公开实施例的的电极组件。电池单体的构成形式例如为图3所示的电池单体20,电池单体20的电极组件24为包括极片组件30的卷绕式电极组件。其中电极组件24的正极极片上设有防护层形成极片组件30。电池单体20的其它结构可参考此前的相关描述。
本公开实施例的电池单体具有本公开实施例的电极组件具有的优点。
本公开实施例还提供一种电池,包括本公开实施例的电池单体。电池的构成形式 例如为图2所示的电池B。电池B包括图3所示的多个电池单体20。电池B的其它结构可参考此前的相关描述。
本公开实施例的电池具有本公开的电池单体具有的优点。
本公开实施例还提供一种用电设备,包括本公开实施例的电池,电池用于为用电设备提供电力。用电设备例如为图1所示的车辆D。车辆D包括图2所示的电池B。电池B的其它结构可参考此前的相关描述。
