具体实施方式
下面结合附图和实施例对本申请的实施方式作进一步详细描述。以下实施例的详细描述和附图用于示例性地说明本申请的原理,但不能用来限制本申请的范围,即本申请不限于所描述的实施例。
在本申请的描述中,需要说明的是,除非另有说明,“多个”的含义是两个以上;术语“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”、“内”、“外”等指示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”等仅用于描述目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性。“垂直”并不是严格意义上的垂直,而是在误差允许范围之内。“平行”并不是严格意义上的平行,而是在误差允许范围之内。
下述描述中出现的方位词均为图中示出的方向,并不是对本申请的具体结构进行限定。在本申请的描述中,还需要说明的是,除非另有明确的规定和限定,术语“安装”、“相连”、“连接”应做广义理解,例如,可以是固定连接,也可以是可拆卸连接,或一体地连接;可以是直接相连,也可以通过中间媒介间接相连。对于本领域的普通技术人员而言,可视具体情况理解上述术语在本申请中的具体含义。
本申请中术语“和/或”,仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。另外,本申请中字符“/”,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
本申请中,电池单体可以包括一次电池或者二次电池,也可以包括锂离子电池、锂硫电池、钠锂离子电池、钠离子电池或镁离子电池等,本申请实施例对此并不限定。电池单体可呈圆柱体、扁平体、长方体或其它形状等,本申请实施例对此也不限定。
本申请的实施例所提到的电池是指包括一个或多个电池单体以提供更高的 电压和容量的单一的物理模块。例如,本申请中所提到的电池可以包括电池包等。电池一般包括用于封装一个或多个电池单体的箱体。箱体可以避免液体或其他异物影响电池单体的充电或放电。
电池单体包括电极组件和电解质,电极组件由正极片、负极片组成。电池单体主要依靠金属离子在正极片和负极片之间移动来工作。正极片包括正极集流体和正极活性物质层,正极活性物质层涂覆于正极集流体的表面,未涂敷正极活性物质层的集流体凸出于已涂覆正极活性物质层的集流体,未涂敷正极活性物质层的集流体作为正极极耳。以锂离子电池为例,正极集流体的材料可以为铝,正极活性物质可以为钴酸锂、磷酸铁锂、三元锂或锰酸锂等。负极片包括负极集流体和负极活性物质层,负极活性物质层涂覆于负极集流体的表面,未涂敷负极活性物质层的集流体凸出于已涂覆负极活性物质层的集流体,未涂敷负极活性物质层的集流体作为负极极耳。负极集流体的材料可以为铜,负极活性物质可以为碳或硅等。为了保证通过大电流而不发生熔断,正极极耳的数量为多个且层叠在一起,负极极耳的数量为多个且层叠在一起。此外,电极组件可以是卷绕式结构,也可以是叠片式结构,本申请实施例并不限于此。
为了满足不同的电力需求,电池可以包括多个电池单体,其中,多个电池单体之间可以串联或并联或混联,混联是指串联和并联的混合。可选地,多个电池单体可以先串联或并联或混联组成电池模块,多个电池模块再串联或并联或混联组成电池。也就是说,多个电池单体可以直接组成电池,也可以先组成电池模块,电池模块再组成电池。电池再进一步设置于用电设备中,为用电设备提供电能。
随着电池技术的发展,对于电池的各项的性能的要求也越来越高。其中,对于电池单体的制备过程和合格率的要求也越来越高。在电池单体的制备过程中,电极组件制备完成后需要被装入金属的壳体中以完成组装。为了保证电极组件与壳体之间的绝缘,通常需要在电极组件的外表面包裹绝缘膜。
申请人经研究发现,现有的绝缘膜的包裹过程复杂且不良率高。在现有的包覆绝缘膜的工艺中,通常采用片状的绝缘膜包覆电极组件的相应表面,在绝缘膜的对应端盖的一端处预留有预设的距离,以使绝缘膜与端盖的下塑胶连接。在实际生产过程中,绝缘膜与端盖的实际距离通常会大于或小于预设的距离,从而导致端盖与壳体之间的焊接不良或绝缘膜与端盖之间的热熔不良,从而导致产品返修或报废,不利 于电池单体的合格率的提升。
基于此,本申请提供了一种电池单体,将包裹电池单体中的电极组件的绝缘膜设置为套筒状并且材质设置为热缩材料。这样,在将电极组件包裹绝缘膜的过程中,只需将绝缘膜套入电极组件,并通过加热处理使绝缘膜包裹电极组件即可。本申请的技术方案可改善绝缘膜与端盖之间距离过小或过大导致的电池单体的合格率的下降,同时也可以改善热熔不良导致的电池单体的合格率的下降问题。
本申请实施例描述的技术方案均适用于各种使用电池的装置,例如,手机、便携式设备、笔记本电脑、电瓶车、电动玩具、电动工具、电动车辆、船舶和航天器等,例如,航天器包括飞机、火箭、航天飞机和宇宙飞船等。
应理解,本申请实施例描述的技术方案不仅仅局限适用于上述所描述的设备,还可以适用于所有使用电池的设备,但为描述简洁,下述实施例均以电动车辆为例进行说明。
例如,如图1所示,为本申请一个实施例的一种车辆1的结构示意图,车辆1可以为燃油汽车、燃气汽车或新能源汽车,新能源汽车可以是纯电动汽车、混合动力汽车或增程式汽车等。车辆1的内部可以设置马达40,控制器30以及电池10,控制器30用来控制电池10为马达40供电。例如,在车辆1的底部或车头或车尾可以设置电池10。电池10可以用于车辆1的供电,例如,电池10可以作为车辆1的操作电源,用于车辆1的电路系统,例如,用于车辆1的启动、导航和运行时的工作用电需求。在本申请的另一实施例中,电池10不仅仅可以作为车辆1的操作电源,还可以作为车辆1的驱动电源,替代或部分地替代燃油或天然气为车辆1提供驱动动力。
为了满足不同的使用电力需求,电池10可以包括多个电池单体。例如,如图2所示,为本申请一个实施例的一种电池10的结构示意图,电池10可以包括多个电池单体20。电池10还可以包括箱体11,箱体11内部为中空结构,多个电池单体20容纳于箱体11内。例如,多个电池单体20相互并联或串联或混联组合后置于箱体11内。
可选地,电池10还可以包括其他结构,在此不再一一赘述。例如,该电池10还可以包括汇流部件,汇流部件用于实现多个电池单体20之间的电连接,例如并联或串联或混联。具体地,汇流部件可通过连接电池单体20的电极端子实现电池单体20之间的电连接。进一步地,汇流部件可通过焊接固定于电池单体20的电极端子。多个 电池单体20的电能可进一步通过导电机构穿过箱体11而引出。可选地,导电机构也可属于汇流部件。
根据不同的电力需求,电池单体20的数量可以设置为任意数值。多个电池单体20可通过串联、并联或混联的方式连接以实现较大的容量或功率。由于每个电池10中包括的电池单体20的数量可能较多,为了便于安装,可以将电池单体20分组设置,每组电池单体20组成电池模块。电池模块中包括的电池单体20的数量不限,可以根据需求设置。电池可以包括多个电池模块,这些电池模块可通过串联、并联或混联的方式进行连接。
图3为本申请一实施例的电池单体的结构示意图,图4为本申请一实施例的电池单体的分解示意图。在本申请一实施例中,如图3和图4所示,电池单体20包括:至少一个电极组件22,壳体211和绝缘膜26。
电池单体20包括至少一个电极组件22,例如,如图4所示,电池单体20包括四个电极组件22。
壳体211用于容纳至少一个电极组件22,例如,如图4所示,壳体211用于容纳四个电极组件22。也可以说,所有的电极组件22均容纳于壳体211内。
壳体211根据至少一个电极组件22组合后的形状而定,例如,壳体211可以为中空的长方体或正方体或圆柱体,且壳体211的其中一个面具有开口以便一个或多个电极组件22可以放置于壳体211内。例如,当壳体211为中空的长方体或正方体时,壳体211的其中一个平面为开口面,即该平面不具有壁体而使得壳体211内外相通。当壳体211可以为中空的圆柱体时,壳体211的端面为开口面,即该端面不具有壁体而使得壳体211内外相通。
可选地,壳体211为铝壳或钢壳。
电池单体20还可以包括端盖212,端盖212覆盖壳体211的开口并与壳体211连接,以形成放置电极组件22的封闭的腔体。壳体211内填充有电解质,例如电解液。
绝缘膜26用于包裹至少一个电极组件22,以隔离至少一个电极组件22与壳体211。例如,如图4所示,电池单体20包括四个电极组件22,绝缘膜26用于包裹四个电极组件22,以隔离四个电极组件22与壳体211。这样,可以通过绝缘膜26实现所有的电极组件22与壳体211的绝缘。
图5为相关技术中的一种绝缘膜的结构示意图,图6为相关技术中的一种包覆有绝缘膜的电极组件的结构示意图。如图5和图6所示,相关技术中的绝缘膜通常为片状结构,相关技术中,通常采用片状的绝缘膜对电极组件的表面进行包裹,包裹后,绝缘膜的至少部分区域相互重叠。在包裹绝缘膜后,通过热熔的方式将绝缘膜与端盖连接。
图7为本申请一实施例的绝缘膜的结构示意图,图8为本申请一实施例的设置有端盖的电极组件的结构示意图。需要注意的是,图8示意性仅示出了两个电极组件22,本申请实施例对电极组件22的个数不作具体限制。
结合图7和图8所示,绝缘膜26为套筒状并且绝缘膜26的材料为热缩材料。
绝缘膜26为套筒状,也就是说,绝缘膜26套在至少一个电极组件22的外面,并且绝缘膜26为筒状结构。具体地,绝缘膜26可以为长方体形的套筒,圆柱体形的套筒或其他形状的套筒,只要可以将至少一个电极组件22套入即可。
绝缘膜26为热缩材料,也就是说,在受热后,绝缘膜26收缩。绝缘膜26收缩的程度与绝缘膜26的具体材料和受热条件相关,可以根据实际情况具体设置。
在使用绝缘膜26包覆电极组件22的过程中,可以将所有电极组件22套入绝缘膜26内,不需要采用片状的绝缘膜对电极组件22的外表面逐个进行包覆,有利于降低工艺的复杂度。同时,由于绝缘膜26为热缩材料,通过对绝缘膜26加热处理,可以使绝缘膜26包裹所有的电极组件22。这样,相比于通过热熔的方式将绝缘膜26包裹在电极组件22上,一方面,不需要采用热熔工艺,可以改善热熔拉丝或者热熔熔破绝缘膜26等现象;另一方面,可以改善绝缘膜26与端盖212之间沿端盖212的厚度方向的距离过小导致的端盖212与外壳211焊接发生焊穿的问题,也可以改善绝缘膜26与端盖212之间沿端盖212的厚度方向距离过大导致的绝缘膜26与端盖212的热熔不良问题。
可选地,如图8所示,在使用绝缘膜26包裹电极组件22前,电极组件22已经与端盖212连接。例如,电极组件22与端盖212的下塑胶连接,可以为电极组件22通过中间件与端盖212的下塑胶连接。
本申请实施例提供了一种电池单体20,包括至少一个电极组件22,壳体211和绝缘膜26。该至少一个电极组件22容纳于壳体211中,绝缘膜26用于包裹至少 一个电极组件22,以隔离至少一个电极组件22与壳体211,这样,可以实现至少一个电极组件22与壳体211之间的绝缘。绝缘膜26为套筒状并且绝缘膜26的材料为热缩材料,这样,可以将套筒状的绝缘膜26套入至少一个电极组件22并通过加热的方式使绝缘膜26热缩以包裹至少一个电极组件22。相比于采用片状的绝缘膜包覆至少一个电极组件,并在包覆后通过热熔的方式将绝缘膜与电池单体的端盖连接的方式,本申请的技术方案可以改善绝缘膜26与端盖212之间距离过小或过大导致的电池单体20的合格率的下降问题,同时也可以改善热熔不良导致的电池单体20的合格率的下降问题。因此,本申请的技术方案可以提高电池单体的合格率。
在一些实施例中,绝缘膜26具有第一开口261,第一开口261与至少一个电极组件22的设置有极耳221的一端对应。
可选地,电池单体20包括连接构件23。这样,电极组件22的极耳221可以通过连接构件23与端盖212上的电极端子214连接。
在一些实施例中,通过设置第一开口261,可以通过第一开口261将至少一个电极组件22套入绝缘膜26,并且极耳221可以通过第一开口261露出,以便于极耳221与其他导电部件,例如连接构件23连接。
绝缘膜26具有第一开口261,可以为绝缘膜26的一个面为开口面,这样,电极组件22可以通过第一开口261套入绝缘膜26。
图9为本申请一实施例的底托片的结构示意图,图10为本申请一实施例的设置有底托片的绝缘膜的俯视图。在一些实施例中,结合图7,图9和图10所示,绝缘膜26的与第一开口261相对的第一表面262的远离至少一个电极组件22的一侧设置有底托片263。
绝缘膜26的第一表面262沿z方向与第一开口261相对,第一表面262的远离电极组件22的一侧设置有底托片263。也就是说,沿z方向或底托片263的厚度方向,底托片263设置于壳体211和绝缘膜26的第一表面262之间。
可选地,底托片263的面积与第一表面262的面积相同。
可选地,底托片263的面积小于第一表面262的面积。这样,便于将底托片263贴合于绝缘膜26的第一表面262。
可选地,底托片263的形状可以为长方形、椭圆形或其他多边形,可以根据实际情况具体设置,本申请对此不作具体限制。
在一些实施例中,通过将底托片263设置于壳体211和绝缘膜26的第一表面262之间,可以防止绝缘膜26的第一表面262与壳体211之间的磨损,同时增强了绝缘膜26对至少一个电极组件22的支撑。此外,还便于将底托片263贴合于绝缘膜26,例如便于将底托片263粘接在绝缘膜26的第一表面262。
在一些实施例中,底托片263与绝缘膜26粘接。
可选地,底托片263为具有粘性的材料制备而成。
可选地,底托片263的与绝缘膜26的第一表面262接触的一面设置有背胶,从而可以实现底托片263与绝缘膜26的第一表面262之间的粘接。
在一些实施例中,底托片263与绝缘膜26粘接,可以增强底托片263与绝缘膜26之间的连接强度。
可选地,底托片263的沿厚度方向相对的两个表面均设置有背胶。
图11为本申请一实施例的包裹有绝缘膜的电极组件的结构示意图。如图11所示,电极组件22包覆有设置有底托片263的绝缘膜26。
在一些实施例中,绝缘膜26被配置为与底托片263连接后包裹至少一个电极组件22。这样,底托片263和绝缘膜26作为一个整体对至少一个电极组件22进行包裹,有利于提升绝缘膜26的强度,进一步保证了绝缘膜26对至少一个电极组件22和壳体211的隔离。
可选地,底托片263为热缩材料。这样,便于底托片263和绝缘膜26作为一个整体进行热缩,并对至少一个电极组件22进行包裹。
可选地,底托片263在绝缘膜26热缩后与绝缘膜26连接。这样,便于底托片263与绝缘膜26的贴合。
在一些实施例中,底托片263的材料包括绝缘材料。这样,可以进一步保证至少一个电极组件22与壳体211之间的绝缘。
可选地,底托片263的材料为塑料或橡胶。
在一些实施例中,绝缘膜26的形状与至少一个电极组件22的整体形状一致。
至少一个电极组件22的整体形状为至少一个电极组件22组合后的形状。绝缘膜26的形状与至少一个电极组件22的整体形状一致,也就是说,绝缘膜26的形状与所有电极组件22组合后的轮廓相似或大致一致。例如,至少一个电极组件22组 合后的形状为圆柱体,则绝缘膜26为中空的圆柱形;至少一个电极组件22组合后的形状为长方体,则绝缘膜26为中空的长方体形。
在一些实施例中,绝缘膜26的形状与至少一个电极组件22的整体形状一致,有利于绝缘膜26与至少一个电极组件22的贴合。
在一些实施例中,绝缘膜26贴附于至少一个电极组件22。
绝缘膜26贴附于至少一个电极组件22,可以实现绝缘膜26对电极组件22的包裹,从而不需要再通过贴蓝胶的方式将绝缘膜26与至少一个电极组件22紧密贴合,可以降低粘接不良等风险。
绝缘膜26贴附于至少一个电极组件22,可以指,绝缘膜26热缩完成后,绝缘膜26贴附于至少一个电极组件22。
绝缘膜26在热缩前的容纳空间的体积大于至少一个电极组件22的体积,这样便于将至少一个电极组件22套入绝缘膜26。
绝缘膜26在热缩后贴附于至少一个电极组件22,可以指,绝缘膜26在热缩后与所有的电极组件22贴合或紧密的贴合。例如,如图4所示,热缩后,沿z方向,绝缘膜26的长度可以略小于或略大于电极组件22的长度。也就是说,由于实现了绝缘膜26与所有的电极组件22的贴合或紧密贴合,无需采用热熔方式将绝缘膜26与端盖212连接,对绝缘膜26与端盖212之间的沿端盖212的厚度方向的距离的要求降低,从而降低了包覆绝缘膜26的难度。
在一些实施例中,在至少一个方向上,绝缘膜26在热缩前的尺寸热缩后的尺寸大1mm~10mm,例如2mm,3mm,4mm,5mm,8mm,10mm。也就是说,绝缘膜26在热缩前的尺寸比至少一个电极组件22的的尺寸大1mm~10mm。
例如,对于长方体形的绝缘膜26而言,在长度方向,宽度方向和高度方向中的至少一个方向上,绝缘膜26的尺寸比至少一个电极组件22的整体的尺寸大1mm~10mm。例如,长度方向可以为x方向,宽度方向为y方向,高度方向为z方向。绝缘膜26沿x方向的尺寸为d1,y方向的尺寸为d2,z方向的尺寸为d3;至少一个电极组件22沿x方向的尺寸为c1,y方向的尺寸为c2,z方向的尺寸为c3。也就是说d1与c1的差值,d2与c2的差值,d3与c3的差值中的至少一个为1mm~10mm。
在绝缘膜26在热缩前的容纳空间的在至少一个方向的尺寸比至少一个电极组件22的尺寸小1mm的情况下,不利于将至少一个电极组件22套入绝缘膜26。
在绝缘膜26在热缩前的容纳空间的在至少一个方向的尺寸比至少一个电极组件22的尺寸大10mm的情况下,虽然便于将至少一个电极组件22套入绝缘膜26,但不利于绝缘膜26在热缩后与至少一个电极组件22贴合。
通过将绝缘膜26在热缩前的容纳空间的在至少一个方向的尺寸设置为比至少一个电极组件22的尺寸大1mm~10mm,既便于将至少一个电极组件22套入绝缘膜26,又可以实现绝缘膜26热缩后与至少一个电极组件22的贴合。
可选地,在至少一个方向上,绝缘膜26在热缩前的尺寸比至少一个电极组件22的尺寸大3mm~5mm。
在一些实施例中,绝缘膜26的材料包括:聚乙烯、聚苯乙烯、聚氯乙烯、聚丙烯、聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯、甲基苯基硅树脂、聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯中的至少一种。这样,便于根据实际需要灵活选择相应材质的绝缘膜。
