目前,从市场形势的发展来看,电池已被广泛应用于电动自行车、电动摩托车、电动汽车等电动交通工具,以及电动工具、无人机、储能设备等多个领域。随着电池用领域的不断扩大,其市场的需求量也在不断地扩增。
电池技术的发展要同时考虑多方面的设计因素,例如,能量密度、循环寿命、放电容量、充放电倍率等性能参数,另外,随着环境条件和/或电池内部条件的改变,电池的可靠性问题也是重点考虑的因素之一。
目前,对于生产出的电极组件,在使用之前通常会进行耐压测试,也即短路测试。测试的方式为通过导电块压合极耳并与极耳实现电连接,并通过外接的耐压测试机构与导电块电连接,实现电极组件的耐压测试。
然而,在导电块压合电极组件的极耳的过程中,导电块通过外周面压合极耳时,极耳的层数可能较多,其多层极耳的厚度较大,现有的导电块在压合极耳时,产生的折痕可能会使得极耳起翘,导致电极组件成型为电池单体时,电极组件的极耳与连接片或者顶盖焊接时出现漏焊等焊接不良的风险,或者是折痕部分的应力过于集中从而损坏极耳,从而影响电池单体的可靠性,进而影响电池的可靠性。
基于上述考虑,为了降低导电块与极耳抵接导致应力集中从而损坏极耳的风险,以及为了降低压合极耳时产生的折痕导致极耳起翘从而导致漏焊等焊接不良的风险,从而能提高电极组件的可靠性和电池的可靠性。本申请实施例提供了一种导电块,用于压合电极组件的极耳以进行耐压检测,导电块包括过渡面,过渡面与极耳被压合后形成的斜面相匹配。
