电池的极耳部是从电芯中将正负极引出壳体的金属导电体,因此在电池的装配过程中,电池的极耳部需要引出壳体外部,以作为电池进行充放电时的接触点。但是在电池的装配过程中,电池的电芯在装配壳体时,极耳部容易弯折在壳体内部而无法延伸出壳体外,因此导致电池的装配制备工艺的难度较高,且电池的制备良品率较低。

电池的极耳部是从电芯中将正负极引出壳体的金属导电体,因此在电池的装配过程中,电池的极耳部需要引出壳体外部,以作为电池进行充放电时的接触点。但是在电池的装配过程中,电池的电芯在装配壳体时,极耳部容易弯折在壳体内部而无法延伸出壳体外,电芯和壳体之间难以顺利完成装配,因此导致电池的装配制备工艺的难度较高,且电池的制备良品率较低。
