图1和图2为采用卷绕工艺制成的电芯的结构示意图,如图1和图2所示,卷绕式电芯100由正极片101、负极片102及隔膜103卷绕而成,其中,隔膜103设置于正极片101和负极片102之间,以将正极片101和负极片102隔开。在正极片101和负极片102上分别设置有正极耳(未标号)和负极耳(未标号)。卷绕时,隔膜103的头部103a弯折重叠,位于电芯100的最内层。电芯100具有头部100a和尾部100b,卷绕完成后卷针从电芯100的头部100a所在的一侧抽出。卷绕式电芯中隔膜103位于电芯的最内层,卷绕时卷针夹着隔膜并通过隔膜带动极片一起卷绕。由于隔膜103具有和卷针直接接触的部分,因此这部分隔膜的表面涂层和卷针之间存在摩擦。当卷绕完成后,在卷针拔针过程中,卷针容易带着 内层的隔膜一起拔出,使得部分隔膜被抽出于电芯外,造成抽芯的现象。例如,隔膜被部分抽出电芯的头部外(如图2中虚线框内的部分)。隔膜被抽出会影响正极片和负极片之间的相互隔离,可能会导致正负极片互相接触而发生短路,严重时甚至会导致卷芯报废,使得产品良率降低。此外,对于一些用隔膜收尾的卷绕式电芯来说,由于隔膜的宽度较宽,而且质地较软,收尾时隔膜的尾部103b容易打折,导致卷芯的厚度增加,从而影响电池的能量密度。
卷绕式电芯是采用卷绕工艺制成的电芯,卷绕式电芯包括极性相反的两片极片,隔膜位于两片极片之间。卷绕时卷针夹着叠放的隔膜和极片一起卷绕,形成电芯。为了便于说明,将隔膜的位于电芯最内层的一端定义为隔膜的头部,隔膜的和头部相对的另一端则为隔膜的尾部,在一些卷绕工艺中会用隔膜收尾,即隔膜的尾部会外包在电芯的最外层。电芯的最内层亦为电芯的卷绕首端。
隔膜一般呈长方形结构,将长方形的长边的尺寸定义为隔膜的长度,将长方形的短边的尺寸定义为隔膜的宽度。如图3和图4所示,本申请实施例提供一种隔膜1,隔膜1包括沿隔膜1的长度方向依次连接的第一区段1-1、第二区段1-2及第三区段1-3。第一区段1-1位于隔膜头部的一侧,即卷绕时,第一区段1-1位于电芯的卷绕首端,即位于电芯内层。第三区段1-3位于隔膜尾部的一侧,即卷绕时,第三区段1-3位于电芯外层。第一区段1-1的宽度小于第二区段1-2的宽度,和/或,第三区段1-3的宽度小于第二区段1-2的宽度,使隔膜呈端部比中间窄的形状。
在一些实施例中,第一区段1-1和第三区段1-3的宽度均小于第二区段1-2的宽度,且第一区段1-1的宽度自第一区段1-1的远离第二区段1-2的一端向靠近第二区段1-2的一端的延伸方向递增,即第一区段1-1沿远离第二区段1-2的方向越来越窄;和/或,第三区段1-3的宽度也自第三区段1-3的远离第二区段1-2的一端向靠近第二区段1-2的一端的延伸方向递增,即第三区段1-3沿远离第二区段1-2的方向越来越窄。为了保证将正、负极片隔开,隔膜1的最窄位置处的宽度,也就是隔膜1的最小宽度大于极片(正和/或负极片)的宽度,即极片和隔膜展平叠放在一起时,极片在隔膜所在平面上的投影位于隔膜内(如图4),这样可以保证隔膜和极片叠放或卷绕时,隔膜都能将极片完全覆盖,避免被隔膜隔开的极性相反的极片相互接触。
本申请通过将隔膜分为宽度不同的区域,使位于隔膜头部的区域(第一区段)和/或位于隔膜尾部的区域(第三区段)的宽度小于隔膜中间位置的宽度。隔膜头部处的宽度变窄,可以减小隔膜和卷针接触的面积,从而降低隔膜表面和卷针之间的摩擦力,避免卷针抽针时将部分隔膜扯出电芯,改善隔膜抽芯的问题。在 一些实施例中,隔膜尾部的区域的宽度也小于隔膜其他位置的宽度,从而可以降低隔膜卷绕收尾时隔膜尾部的甩动幅度,以改善卷芯收尾时隔膜打折的问题。
本申请实施例还提供一种电芯,包括极性相反的两片极片和位于两片极片之间的隔膜,隔膜和两片极片叠放卷绕形成电芯。该隔膜可以为上述任一实施例所述的隔膜,隔膜的第一区段位于电芯的卷绕首端。
在一些实施例中,电芯包括极性相反的第一极片和第二极片,隔膜包括位于第一极片的两相对侧的第一隔膜和第二隔膜,第一隔膜和第二隔膜覆盖第一极片。如图5所示,作为本申请一种可选的实施方式,可以在第一极片、第二极片和第一、第二隔膜进行卷绕前,将第一极片和位于其两侧表面的第一、第二隔膜复合粘结在一起,然后再将复合了隔膜的第一极片和第二极片叠放进行卷绕。在一些可选的实施例中,分别位于第一极片两相对侧的第一隔膜和第二隔膜等长,采用等长的两片隔膜可以避免卷绕时发生错位。
如图4所示,隔膜1比极片Q长,也比极片Q宽,隔膜1在长度方向和宽度方向上均超出极片Q。在一些实施例中,在隔膜的宽度方向上,隔膜1的第二区段1-2的外边缘和极片Q位于同侧的外边缘之间的距离为H,H≥0.2mm,也就是在宽度方向上,在第二区段1-2处隔膜1的两侧分别超出于极片Q的尺寸为H,即在第二区段1-2处隔膜1的两侧分别至少超出极片0.2mm。
隔膜1的第一区段1-1的长度w1为:10%*W≤w1≤3*W,W为电芯的宽度。在隔膜的宽度方向上,第一区段1-1的外边缘和极片Q的位于同侧的外边缘之间的距离为h1,3%*H≤h1≤97%*H,也就是在宽度方向上的某一侧,隔膜1的第一区段1-1至少超出极片h1。当第一区段1-1的宽度沿远离第二区段1-2的方向递减时,h1为一个数值范围,而不是一个定值,当第一区段1-1是一个宽度不变的方形区域时,h1为一个定值。第一区段1-1的最小宽度值h2和极片Q的宽度h3之间还满足:50%*h3≤h2≤h3+h1,式中的h3为极片的宽度。
隔膜1的第三区段1-3的长度w2为:10%*W≤w2≤3*W。在宽度方向上,第三区段1-3的外边缘和极片Q的位于同侧的外边缘之间的距离为h4,3%*H≤h4≤97%*H,也就是在宽度方向上,在第三区段1-3处隔膜1的两侧分别至少超出极片Q的尺寸为h4。同样的,当第三区段1-3的宽度沿远离第二区段1-2的方向递减时,h4为一个数值范围,而不是一个定值,当第三区段1-3是一个宽度不变的方形区域时,h4为一个定值。第三区段1-3的最小宽度值h5和极片Q的宽度h3之间还满足:50%*h3≤h5≤h3+h4。
如图4所示,极片Q上具有未涂覆活性材料的空箔区N,空箔区N用于焊接极耳M。极耳M设置于极片Q的空箔区N,并沿隔膜1的宽度方向延伸超出极片Q。极耳M设置于极片Q上后,极耳M的位于极片Q上的部分(极耳的未延 伸超出极片的部分)在隔膜1所在平面上的投影位于隔膜1的第一区段1-1内,亦即,极片Q的空箔区N在隔膜1所在平面上的投影位于隔膜1的第一区段1-1内。
对所公开的实施例的上述说明,使本领域专业技术人员能够实现或使用本申请。对这些实施例的多种修改对本领域的专业技术人员来说将是显而易见的,本文中所定义的一般原理可以在不脱离本申请的精神或范围的情况下,在其它实施例中实现。因此,本申请将不会被限制于本文所示的实施例,而是要符合与本文所公开的原理和新颖特点相一致的最宽范围。
