该实施例将第一极耳和第二极耳从卷绕主体的同一端引出,只需要在电极组件的一端预留电连接空间,也省去了在电池单体的两端分别设置电极端子,可有效提高电池单体的整体能量密度,在电池单体的容量一定的情况下,能够减小电池单体的体积,使电池在用电装置中更容易布局。
而且,此种电池单体只设置一个电极端子,第一极耳与电极端子电连接,第二极耳直接与端盖本体电连接,可简化电池单体的结构和装配工艺。通过省去一个电极端子, 可在端盖本体上留出较大空间,易于在端盖本体上布局注液部件和泄压部件,也为布置温度采集部件、电池单体间的汇流件和各类导线留出充裕的空间,也有利于增大电极端子的横截面积,以增加电池单体的过流能力。对于端盖本体的面积较小时,此种设计具有更大的优势。

该实施例将隔膜在导液区加宽,能够使隔膜的侧边在导液区在第一极片和第二极片之间向外伸出,并浸泡在电解液中,从而使隔膜更容易在毛细作用下吸取电解液,提高电极组件的浸润性能,进而提升电池单体的性能。
在一些实施例中,电池单体还包括第一绝缘件,第一绝缘件的至少部分沿卷绕主体的径向设在相邻的第一导电区和第二导电区之间。

电池单体可以包括锂离子二次电池、锂离子一次电池、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。电池单体一般按封装的方式分成三种:柱形电池单体、方形电池单体和软包电池单体,本申请实施例对此也不限定。
目前的电池单体通常包括壳体和容纳于壳体内的电极组件,并在壳体内填充电解质。电极组件主要由极性相反的第一极片和第二极片层叠或卷绕形成,并且通常在第一极片与第二极片之间设有隔膜。第一极片和第二极片涂覆有活性物质的部分构成电极组件的主体部,第一极片和第二极片未涂覆活性物质的部分各自构成第一极耳和第二极耳。在锂离子电池中,第一极片可以为正极极片,包括正极集流体和设于正极集流体两侧的正极活性物质层,正极集流体的材料例如可以为铝,正极活性物质例如可以为钴酸锂、磷酸铁锂、三元锂或锰酸锂等;第二极片可以为负极极片,包括负极集流体和设于负极集流体两侧的负极活性物质层,负极集流体的材料例如可以为铜,负极活性物质例如可以为石墨或硅等。第一极耳和第二极耳可以共同位于主体部的一端或是分别位于主体部的两端。在电池单体的充放电过程中,正极活性物质和负极活性物质与电解液发生反应,极耳连接端子以形成电流回路。
目前的电池单体通常设有极性相反的第一电极端子和第二电极端子,用于接入用电回路进行供电,第一极耳与第一电极端子电连接,第二极耳与第二电极端子电连接。例如,对于圆柱形电池单体,由于电池单体端部面积较小,第二极耳与第二电极端子分别设在电池单体的两端,相应地,第一极耳和第二极耳分别从电极组件的两端引出。发明人在实践中发现,每一端的极耳和电极端子都会占用一定空间用于电连接,需要在电池单体的高度方向消耗更多的空间,造成电池单体整体体积增大,且会影响电池单体的整体能量密度。
为了提升电池单体的能量密度,发明人想到将第一电极端子和第二电极端子设在电池单体的同一端上,相应地,将第一极耳和第二极耳从电极组件的同一端引出。但是,此种设置方式面临如下两方面的难题。
1、空间布局问题:在端盖同时设置两个电极端子会较为拥挤,还需考虑两个电极端子的绝缘问题,除此之外,端盖上还要设置注液孔、泄压部件,布置温度采集部件、电池单体间的汇流件和各类导线等,在端盖面积较小时难以进行空间布局。
2、绝缘问题:第一电极端子和第二电极端子设在电池单体的同一端需要可靠地进行绝缘,而且从电极组件的同一端引出的第一极耳和第二极耳在引出时也需考虑绝缘问题,以提高电池单体工作的可靠性。
基于上述问题的发现,本申请的发明人从提高电池单体能量密度,且改善端盖上空间布局的思路出发,对电池单体输出电能的方式进行了改进。
端盖组件包括端盖本体和电极端子,电极端子绝缘连接于端盖本体;电极组件的卷绕主体的端部包括第一导电区和第二导电区,第一极耳在第一导电区引出,第二极耳在第二导电区引出,相邻的第一导电区和第二导电区沿卷绕主体的径向间隔设置;其中,第一极耳与端子电连接,第二极耳与端盖本体电连接。此种电池单体可提升整体能量密度,并通过省去一个电极端子,简化了电池单体的结构和装配工艺,并在端盖本体上留出较大空间,为在端盖上布置各部件的布置留出充裕的空间。
本申请实施例的电池单体适用于电池以及使用电池的用电装置。
用电装置可以是手机、便携式设备、笔记本电脑、电瓶车、电动汽车、轮船、航天器、电动玩具和电动工具等等,例如,航天器包括飞机、火箭、航天飞机和宇宙飞船等等,电动玩具包括固定式或移动式的电动玩具,例如,游戏机、电动汽车玩具、电动轮船玩具和电动飞机玩具等等,电动工具包括金属切削电动工具、研磨电动工具、装配电动工具和铁道用电动工具,例如,电钻、电动砂轮机、电动扳手、电动螺丝刀、电锤、冲击电钻、混凝土振动器和电刨。
如图1所示,用电装置可以是车辆300,例如新能源汽车,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;或者用电装置也可以是无人机或轮船等。具体地,车辆300可包括车桥301、连接于车桥301的车轮302、马达303、控制器304和电池200,马达303用于驱动车桥301转动,控制器304用于控制马达303工作,电池200可以设置在车辆300的底部、头部或尾部,用于为马达303以及车辆中其它部件的工作提供电能。
如图2所示,电池200包括箱体201和电池单体100。在电池200中,电池单体100可以是一个,也可以是多个。若电池单体100为多个,多个电池单体100之间可串联或并联或混联,混联是指多个电池单体100中既有串联又有并联,可以是多个电池单体100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形成一个整体,并容纳于箱体201内。也可以是所有电池单体100之间直接串联或并联或混联在一起,再将所有电池单体100构成的整体容纳于箱体201内。
箱体201内部中空,用于容纳一个或多个电池单体100,根据所容纳电池单体100的形状、数量、组合方式以及其他要求,箱体201也可以具有不同形状的尺寸。例如,箱体201可包括:容纳部201A、第一盖体201B和第二盖体201C,容纳部201A相对的两端均具有开口,第一盖体201B和第二盖体201C分别用于封闭容纳部201A的两端开口,图2中根据多个电池单体100的排列方式,容纳部201A呈矩形筒状结构。
电池单体100例如可以为锂离子二次电池、锂离子一次电池、锂硫电池、钠锂离 子电池或镁离子电池等。
在一些实施例中,如图3和图4所示,电池单体100包括:壳体101、端盖组件102和电极组件10。
壳体101具有开口1011,端盖组件102用于封闭开口1011,端盖组件102包括端盖本体1021和绝缘连接于端盖本体1021的电极端子1022。
电极组件10设在壳体101内,如图5和图6所示,电极组件10包括:极性相反的第一极片1和第二极片2,第一极片1包括第一主体部11和凸出于第一主体部11的第一极耳12,第二极片2包括第二主体部21和凸出于第二主体部21的第二极耳22。第一极片1和第二极片2被配置为绕卷绕轴线K卷绕,以使第一主体部11和第二主体部21相叠加并形成卷绕主体S;卷绕主体S的一端包括第一导电区112和第二导电区113,第一极耳12在第一导电区112引出,第二极耳22在第二导电区113引出,相邻的第一导电区112和第二导电区113沿卷绕主体S的径向间隔设置。其中,第一极耳12与电极端子1022电连接,第二极耳22与端盖本体1021电连接。
其中,壳体101为中空结构,用于容纳电极组件10,且壳体101具有开口1011,端盖本体1021用于盖合开口1011。对于长方体的电池单体100,端盖本体1021呈矩形板状结构;对于圆柱形的电池单体100,端盖本体1021呈圆盘状结构。
电极端子1022绝缘连接于端盖本体1021可采用两种实现形式,例如,电极端子1022与端盖本体1021连接的部位涂覆绝缘层,或者电极端子1022包括导电部分和第二绝缘件1022C,第二绝缘件1022C设在导电部分与端盖本体1021之间起到绝缘作用。由于第一极耳12与电极端子1022电连接,第二极耳22与端盖本体1021电连接,端盖本体1021充当电极端子的作用,将电极端子1022与端盖本体1021绝缘连接,能够实现正负电极端子的绝缘,提高电池单体100工作的可靠性。此处的“电连接”包括直接连接和间接连接的情况。
电极组件10由极性相反的第一极片1和第二极片2卷绕形成,第一极片1和第二极片2的形状基本相同,可以是长条形带状结构,形成的卷绕主体S可以为圆柱体、扁平体、长方体或其它形状。第一主体部11和第二主体部21上可涂覆不同的活性物质,第一极耳12可设置一个,或者沿卷绕方向间隔设置多个,第二极耳22可设置一个,或者沿卷绕方向设置多个。例如,第一极片1为正极片,第二极片2为负极片;或者第一极片1为负极片,第二极片2为正极片。
在卷绕主体S的端部,相邻的第一导电区112和第二导电区113沿卷绕主体S的径向间隔设置,可使第一极耳12和第二极耳22在空间上隔开以避免短路,而且径向间隔 区域由于未设置极耳,可作为导液区,电解液能够从导液区浸润到卷绕主体S内部,以在电池充放电的过程中,使电解液与第一极片1和第二极片2上的活性物质充分发生反应。
为了实现电极组件10的绝缘,卷绕主体S与壳体101之间可设置绝缘膜103;第二极耳22的外侧可套设第一绝缘环105,其高度可与第二极耳22的引出长度一致;端盖组件102与电极组件10之间可设置第二绝缘环106,第二绝缘环106可采用塑胶制成。
该实施例将第一极耳12和第二极耳22从卷绕主体S的同一端引出,只需要在电极组件10的一端预留电连接空间,也省去了在电池单体100的两端分别设置电极端子1022,可有效提高电池单体100的整体能量密度,在电池单体100的容量一定的情况下,能够减小电池单体100的体积,使电池200在用电装置中更容易布局。
而且,此种电池单体100只设置一个电极端子1022,第一极耳12与电极端子1022电连接,第二极耳22直接与端盖本体1021电连接,可简化电池单体100的结构和装配工艺。通过省去一个电极端子,可在端盖本体1021上留出较大空间,易于在端盖本体1021上布局注液部件和泄压部件,也为布置温度采集部件、电池单体100间的汇流件和各类导线留出充裕的空间,也有利于增大电极端子1022的横截面积,以增加电池单体100的过流能力。对于端盖本体1021的面积较小时,此种设计具有更大的优势。
另外,第一极耳12和第二极耳22沿径向间隔设置,有利于增加第一极耳12和第二极耳22沿卷绕主体S周向的延伸尺寸,提高极耳与卷绕主体S的连接强度,使极耳根部具有较好的自支撑作用,在对极耳施加周向作用力揉平的过程中,减少极耳打皱现象,使揉平区域形状稳定,优化第一极耳12与电极端子1022、第二极耳22与端盖本体1021之间的电连接效果,保证电极组件10可靠地向外传输电能,并提高过流能力。且径向间隔区域既能将第一极耳12和第二极耳22在空间上隔开起到绝缘作用,又能使电解液从径向间隔区域浸润到卷绕主体S内部,保证电极组件13的浸润性能,提高吸液效果,以在电池充放电的过程中,使电解液与活性物质充分发生反应,从而优化电池单体100的性能。
在一些实施例中,如图6所示,第一导电区112位于第二导电区113的径向内侧。
该实施例能够使第一极耳12从卷绕主体S的中间区域引出,从而使电极端子1022位于端盖本体1021靠近中间区域的位置,留出周围的区域布局注液部件和泄压部件,也为布置温度采集部件、电池单体100间的汇流件和各类导线留出充裕的空间,也有利于增大电极端子1022的横截面积,以增加电池单体100的过流能力。可选地,第一导电区112位于第二导电区113的径向外侧。
在一些实施例中,卷绕主体S的端部还包括至少一个导液区111,其中一个导液区111沿卷绕主体S的径向位于相邻的第一导电区112和第二导电区113之间,用于引导 电解液流入卷绕主体S的内部。
导液区111未设置极耳,且第一极片1或第二极片2与隔膜3之间的间隙与电极组件10外部连通,使电解液更容易进入第一极片1或第二极片2与隔膜3之间的间隙流入卷绕主体S内部,隔膜3也能充分发挥吸液作用,以在电池充放电的过程中,使电解液与第一极片1和第二极片2上的活性物质充分发生反应。
该实施例通过在相邻的第一导电区112和第二导电区113之间设置导液区111,既能够将第一极耳12和第二极耳22在空间上隔开起到绝缘作用,又能使电解液从导液区111浸润到卷绕主体S的内部,保证电极组件10的浸润性能,提高吸液效果,以在电池充放电的过程中,使电解液与第一极片1和第二极片2上的活性物质充分发生反应,从而优化电池单体100的性能。
在一些实施例中,导液区111设有多个,卷绕主体S的端部具有多个沿径向间隔设置的第一导电区112,相邻第一导电区112之间设有导液区111;和/或卷绕主体S的端部具有多个沿径向间隔设置的第二导电区113,相邻第二导电区113之间设有导液区111。
该实施例通过沿径向间隔设置多个第一导电区112和/或第二导电区113,能够在保证极耳过流能力的基础上,更有利于提高电解液的浸润性能,电解液可以同时通过相邻第一导电区112和第二导电区113之间的导液区111、相邻第一导电区112之间的导液区111以及相邻第二导电区113之间的导液区111进入卷绕主体S内部,以在电池充放电的过程中,使电解液在卷绕主体S内部沿径向的分布更加均匀,由此电解液可与第一极片1和第二极片2上的活性物质充分发生反应,从而优化电池单体100的性能。
在一些实施例中,如图6所示,电极组件10还包括隔膜3,隔膜3用于隔离第一极片1和第二极片2,隔膜3、第一主体部11和第二主体部21卷绕后形成卷绕主体S;在卷绕轴线K的延伸方向上,隔膜3位于导液区111的部分超出第一主体部11和第二主体部21的侧边。
其中,隔膜3在展开的状态下可以为长条带状结构,隔膜3可采用PP(聚丙烯)材料或PE(聚乙烯)材料制成,其内部具有微米级或纳米级的微孔,用于在电池的充放电过程中供金属离子通过。
可选地,在卷绕轴线K的延伸方向上,隔膜3的一侧位于导液区111的部分超出第一主体部11的侧边和第二主体部21的侧边;或者隔膜3的两侧位于导液区111的部分均超出第一主体部11的侧边和第二主体部21的侧边。
该实施例将隔膜3在导液区111加宽,能够使隔膜3的侧边在导液区111在第一极片1和第二极片2之间向外伸出,并浸泡在电解液中,从而使隔膜3更容易在毛细作用下 吸取电解液,提高电极组件10的浸润性能,进而提升电池单体100的性能。
在一些实施例中,如图8所示,电极端子1022远离电极组件10的面设有第一凹槽1022’,第一凹槽1022’朝向靠近电极组件10的方向凹入,第一凹槽1022’底面与电极端子1022靠近电极组件10的表面之间形成第一焊接部W1,第一极耳12与第一焊接部W1焊接。
其中,第一凹槽1022’的形状和尺寸可根据焊接区域设置。例如,第一极耳12与电极端子1022可采用激光焊接。第一焊接部W1的厚度要保证焊接能量可穿透,以实现可靠固定。
该实施例通过在电极端子1022上设置第一凹槽1022’,减薄了电极端子1022在焊接区域的厚度,能够在端盖组件102安装于壳体101之后,直接从电极端子1022外侧进行焊接,简化了装配工艺,而且能够提高焊接的牢固性,以可靠地实现电极端子1022与第一极耳12的电连接。
在一些实施例中,如图7和图8所示,端盖本体1021远离电极组件10的侧面上设有第二凹槽1021’,第二凹槽1021’沿径向位于电极端子1022的外侧,第二极耳22与端盖本体1021上与第二凹槽1021’对应的位置连接。
其中,第二凹槽1021’底面与端盖本体1021靠近电极组件10的表面之间形成第二焊接部W2,第二极耳22与第二焊接部W2焊接。第二凹槽1021’的形状和尺寸可根据焊接区域设置。例如,第二极耳22与端盖本体1021可采用激光焊接。第二焊接部W2的厚度要保证焊接能量可穿透,以实现可靠固定。
可选地,端盖本体1021包括主体板1021A和凸出部1021B,凸出部1021B连接在主体板1021A靠近电极组件10一侧,第二凹槽1021’延伸至凸出部1021B内。凸出部1021B将主体板1021A在靠近电极组件10的一侧局部加厚,使第二焊接部W2在卷绕轴线K所在方向上更靠近第二极耳22,便于将第二极耳22与端盖本体1021直接单连接而省去转接件,简化了结构,还能减小第二极耳22的引出长度。而且,在主体板1021A局部加厚的情况下,通过使第二凹槽1021’延伸至凸出部1021B内,也能使第二焊接部W2保持在合适的焊接厚度,提高电连接可靠性。
该实施例通过在端盖本体1021上设置第二凹槽1021’,减薄了端盖本体1021在焊接区域的厚度,能够在端盖组件102安装于壳体101之后,直接从端盖本体1021外侧进行焊接,简化了装配工艺,而且能够提高焊接的牢固性,以可靠地实现端盖本体1021与第二极耳22的电连接。
而且,对于第一导电区112位于第二导电区113的径向内侧的结构,第二凹槽 1021’沿径向位于电极端子1022的外侧区域,有充裕的空间设置第二凹槽1021’,在第二导电区113沿周向延伸长度较长时,有利于通过增加第二凹槽1021’的数量或周向尺寸提高第二极耳22与端盖本体1021电连接可靠度。
在一些实施例中,如图7所示,第二凹槽1021’设有多个,且多个第二凹槽1021’沿卷绕主体S的周向间隔设置,每个第二凹槽1021’沿周向延伸。
例如,第二凹槽1021’设有两个,两个第二凹槽1021’可相对于卷绕轴线K对称设置。端盖组件102还可包括设在端盖本体1021上的注液部件和泄压部件1024,注液部件设在两个第二凹槽1021’各自的第一端之间,泄压部件1024设在两个第二凹槽1021’各自的第二端之间。具体地,注液部件可包括设在端盖本体1021上的通孔1021C和盖体1023,通孔1021C用于注入电解液,注入电解液后盖体1023将通孔1021C封闭,当移除盖体1023后可进行注液。泄压部件1024用于在壳体101的内部压力超过预设阈值时进行泄压。
该实施例在端盖本体1021上沿周向间隔设置多个第二凹槽1021’,不仅能够提高第二极耳22与端盖本体1021之间电连接可靠度,例如,在采用焊接实现电连接时,设置多个焊接位置可保证焊接强度,防止电池200在使用过程中受到振动和冲击时焊接位置发生松脱;而且还能在相邻两个第二凹槽1021’之间设置注液部件和泄压部件1024等其它部件,充分利用端盖本体1021上的空间。
在一些实施例中,如图9所示,电池单体100还包括转接件104,第一极耳12通过转接件104与电极端子1022电连接,和/或第二极耳22通过转接件104与端盖本体1021电连接。例如,可采用焊接或铆接的方式实现电连接。
例如,在采用焊接方式时,可先将第一极耳12和/或第二极耳22与转接件104焊接,在安装端盖组件102后,从端盖组件102外部将电极端子1022与转接件104电连接,并将端盖本体1021与转接件104电连接。
例如,转接件104包括:相互连接的第一连接部1041和第二连接部1042,第一连接部1041沿径向的尺寸大于第二连接部1042的尺寸。对于连接于第一极耳12与电极端子1022之间的转接件104,第一连接部1041与第一极耳12电连接,第二连接部1042与电极端子1022电连接;和/或对于连接于第二极耳22与端盖本体1021之间的转接件104,第一连接部1041与第二极耳22电连接,第二连接部1042与端盖本体1021连接。
例如,第一连接部1041可采用圆盘片状结构,可增大与第一极耳12或第二极耳22的连接面积,以提高连接可靠性,特别适用于第一极耳12卷绕至少一周的结构,可使第一极耳12在整个周向都与第一连接部1041连接。第二连接部1042可呈圆柱形结构, 圆柱形结构的一端可连接于第一连接部1041,例如处于第一连接部1044的中心位置,另一端与电极端子1022连接。考虑到电极端子1022尺寸较小,第一极耳12通过转接件104与电极端子1022电连接能够提高电能传输的可靠性。
通过使第一连接部1041沿径向的尺寸大于第二连接部1042的尺寸,能够使第一连接部1041在径向上覆盖第一极耳12或第二极耳22中更多的极耳层,增加第一连接部1041在径向上与第一极耳12或第二极耳22的连接长度,提高电连接可靠性,例如在采用焊接进行电连接时,可使焊接轨迹经过更多的极耳层,使第一连接部1041与极耳的连接更加牢固。而且,通过减小第二连接部1042的径向尺寸,可与电极端子1022或端盖本体1021的连接区域适配,从而适应电极端子1022较小的横截面积,并减小端盖本体1021上的电连接区域,以便为布局其它部件留出空间。
可选地,第一极耳12也可与电极端子1022直接电连接,第二极耳22也可与端盖本体1021直接电连接。第一极耳12和第二极耳22可根据连接需求确定是否需要设置转接件104。
该实施例通过设置转接件104,可降低对第一极耳12与电极端子1022、以及第二极耳22与端盖本体1021之间的位置关系的要求,从而降低了电连接的工艺难度;而且,由于多个极耳较为蓬松,通过转接件104更容易提高连接可靠性,以增加内外圈极耳的过流能力,例如,在采用焊接的方式进行电连接时,转接件104与极耳的焊接轨迹可控制,可提高焊接的牢固性;另外,还可防止在电连接时对极耳或卷绕主体S造成损伤,例如在采用焊接时,可防止焊接能量灼伤极耳、使卷绕主体S发生变形或第一主体部11、第二主体部21上的涂覆层发生脱落等。
在一些实施例中,第一极耳12至少卷绕一个整圈,和/或第二极耳22至少卷绕一个整圈。
该实施例使极耳连续延伸并卷绕至少一圈,在周向上与卷绕主体S具备较好的连接强度,使极耳根部具有较好的自支撑作用,在对极耳施加周向作用力揉平的过程中,防止出现极耳打皱现象,使揉平区域形状稳定,优化第一极耳12与电极端子1022以及第二极耳22与端盖本体1021的焊接效果,保证电极组件10可靠地向外传输电能,并提高过流能力。此外,极耳焊接时产生的粒子也不容易沿周向掉落到导液区111的第一极片1和第二极片2之间,可提高电极组件10工作的可靠性,防止出现短路或极片划伤的问题。
此外,通过在第一主体部11的部分卷绕长度上设置连续的第一极耳12,并在第二主体部21的部分卷绕长度上设置连续的第二极耳22,能够满足第一极耳12和第二极耳22的过流能力,无需在主体部的整个卷绕长度上设置离散极耳,可简化模切极片工序, 同时在第一极片1和第二极片卷绕形成卷绕主体S时,也无需进行极耳对位,可简化工艺,提升电极组件10的生产效率。
在一些实施例中,第一极耳12在第一导电区112卷绕多圈,和/或第二极耳22在第二导电区113卷绕多圈。第一极耳12或第二极耳22可卷绕至少两圈,例如为了使第一极耳12或第二极耳22达到较优的自支撑效果,卷绕圈数至少5圈,卷绕圈数可根据电极组件10的过流能力和极化进行设计。
该实施例通过使极耳在导电区卷绕多圈,揉平后极耳中相邻两个极耳层的弯折部相互搭接,进一步强化极耳受到的支撑作用,可防止极耳揉平打皱,使弯折部形状稳定,优化第一极耳12与电极端子1022以及第二极耳22与端盖本体1021之间的焊接效果。而且,还可增大极耳揉平后与电极端子1022或端盖本体1021之间的焊接面积,使第一极耳12与电极端子1022以及第二极耳22与端盖本体1021的焊接更牢固,保证电极组件10可靠地向外传输电能,并提高过流能力。
在一些实施例中,如图10所示,电池单体100还包括第一绝缘件107,第一绝缘件107的至少部分沿卷绕主体S的径向设在相邻的第一导电区112和第二导电区113之间。
例如,第一绝缘件107的截面可成L形结构,L形结构的横部与端盖本体1021连接,竖部延伸至第一极耳12与第二极耳22之间的区域内。
该实施例能够通过第一绝缘件107将第一极耳12和第二极耳22隔开,以防止第一极耳12和第二极耳22由于受到振动或冲击时发生接触短路,提高电池单体100的工作可靠性。
在一些实施例中,如图13所示,第一极片1沿卷绕方向间隔设置多个第一极耳12,多个第一极耳12形成至少一个第一极耳组12’,第一导电区112设有至少一个,第一极耳组12’与第一导电区112对应设置,第一极耳组12’沿卷绕主体S的部分周向延伸,且包括沿径向层叠设置的多个第一极耳12。和/或第二极片2沿卷绕方向间隔设置多个第二极耳22,多个第二极耳22形成至少一个第二极耳组22’,第二导电区113设有至少一个,第二极耳组22’与第二导电区113对应设置,第二极耳组22’沿卷绕主体S的部分周向延伸,且包括沿径向层叠设置的多个第二极耳22。
例如,第一导电区112设有两个,两个第一导电区112分别引出一个第一极耳组12’,且两个第一导电区112相对于卷绕轴线K对称设置;第二导电区113设有两个,两个第二导电区113分别引出一个第二极耳组22’,且两个第二极耳组22’相对于卷绕轴线K对称设置。第二导电区113可位于第一导电区112的径向外侧。
第一极耳组12’中多个第一极耳12沿卷绕方向的宽度相等;和/或第二极耳组13’ 中多个第二极耳22沿卷绕方向的宽度相等。极耳组呈类似矩形的结构,只是该矩形结构沿径向相对的两个侧边为圆弧形。极耳组中多个极耳相同的侧端对齐,以提高极耳组与电极端子1022或端盖本体1021电连接时的有效接触面积,提高过流能力。此种结构使极耳组中多个极耳的宽度相等,能够降低模切极耳的难度,易于保证极耳的尺寸,在卷绕时易于保证多个极耳的对齐程度,从而降低制备电极组件10的工艺难度。
可选地,第一极耳组12’和第二极耳组22’也可为扇形结构。
该实施例的极耳引出方式在保证电流传输能力的基础上,可减小电极组件10的重量,从而减小电池单体100的重量。
图3至图8为本申请电池单体100的第一实施例的结构示意图。如图3和图4,电池单体100包括壳体101、端盖组件102和电极组件10。壳体101具有开口1011,端盖组件102用于封闭开口1011,端盖组件102包括端盖本体1021和绝缘连接于端盖本体1021的电极端子1022,端盖本体1021用于盖合开口1011。例如,电池单体100可呈圆柱形。
电极组件10设在壳体101内,如图5所示,电极组件10呈卷绕结构且包括卷绕主体S、极性相反的第一极耳12和第二极耳22,卷绕主体S的一端同心设有环状的导液区111、第一导电区112和第二导电区113,导液区111在径向上位于第一导电区112和第二导电区113之间。第一极耳12从第一导电区112引出且卷绕至少一圈,第二极耳22从第二导电区113引出且卷绕至少一圈,例如卷绕5圈。

如图7和图8所示,第一极耳12与电极端子1022电连接,且电极端子1022的中心线与卷绕轴线K重合,第二极耳22与端盖本体1021电连接。
电极端子1022可以设计为复合电极端子,其包括第一端子部1022A、第二端子部1022B和第二绝缘件1022C,第一端子部1022A和第二端子部1022B沿卷绕轴线K所在方向连接,第二端子部1022B位于第一端子部1022A和电极组件10之间,第二绝缘件1022C套设在第一端子部1022A和第二端子部1022B外。
例如,电极端子1022为负极端子,第一端子部1022A采用铝材料制成,且用于与电池单体100的外部电路连接;第二端子部1022B采用铜材料制成,可设计为盘状结构, 第二端子部1022B与第一极耳12直接电连接,例如可采用焊接等方式。第一端子部1022A上设置沿卷绕轴线K延伸的通孔,以在电极端子1022远离电极组件10的面形成第一凹槽1022’,并将第二端子部1022B与通孔对应的部分作为第一焊接部W1与第一极耳12焊接。
端盖本体1021远离电极组件10的面上设有第二凹槽1021’,第二凹槽1021’朝向靠近电极组件10的方向凹入,第二凹槽1021’底面与端盖本体1021靠近电极组件10的表面之间形成第二焊接部W2,第二极耳22与第二焊接部W2焊接。端盖本体1021包括主体板1021A和凸出部1021B,凸出部1021B连接在主体板1021A靠近电极组件10一侧,第二凹槽1021’延伸至凸出部1021B内。凸出部1021B凸出至与第二极耳组13抵接,通过第二凹槽1021’直接将第二焊接部W2与第二极耳22焊接,无需设置转接件104。
由于电极端子1022与卷绕主体S端面的距离大于凸出部1021B与卷绕主体S端面的距离,因此第一极耳12的延伸长度大于第二极耳22的延伸长度。
壳体101具有凹入部1012,凹入部1012在周向上相对于壳体11的外壁整体向内凹入,壳体101在凹入部1012靠近开口1011的一端形成弯折部1013,弯折部1013具有容纳腔,端盖本体1021沿径向的外端嵌入容纳腔,电池单体100还包括密封件109,密封件109设在弯折部1013与端盖本体1021之间。
其中,凹入部1012可沿壳体101的整个周向延伸,或者在壳体101的周向上间隔设置多个凹入部1012。密封件109可采用密封圈,且密封圈的横截面可呈C形结构,密封圈套设在端盖本体1021的外端,以使得端盖本体1021与壳体101绝缘。可选地,C形结构靠近电极组件10的一端可设置延伸部,延伸部沿着朝向电极组件10的方向延伸,以将凹入部1012与电池单体10的内部结构绝缘。例如,密封件109可采用橡胶等材料。
其中,在固定端盖组件102时,先将密封件109套设在端盖组件102沿径向的外端,并将端盖组件102从开口1011放入壳体101内,端盖组件102抵靠在凹入部1012上,再将壳体101在凹入部1012靠近开口1011的一端进行弯折,以形成弯折部1013,弯折部1013包裹在密封件109之外。通过采用镦封的方式实现端盖组件102与壳体101之间的固定,并设置密封件109,能实现端盖本体1021与壳体101之间的绝缘,这样在将端盖本体1021作为电极端子的情况下,可使壳体101不带电,提高了电池单体100工作的安全性。
图9为本申请电池单体100的第二实施例的示意图,与图8所示第一实施例的不同之处在于,第一极耳12和第二极耳22的引出长度相同,第一极耳12与电极端子1022通过转接件104电连接。转接件104包括:相互连接的第一连接部1041和第二连接部1042,第一连接部1041沿径向的尺寸大于第二连接部1042的尺寸。对于连接于第一极耳12与电极端子1022之间的转接件104,第一连接部1041与第一极耳12电连接,第二连接部 1042与电极端子1022电连接.

图11为本申请电池单体100的第四实施例的示意图,与图8所示第一实施例的不同之处在于,将第二端子部1022B设计为使板状结构的局部区域朝向电极组件10凸出至能够与第一极耳12连接,以省去设置转接件104。
图12为本申请电池单体100的第五实施例的示意图,与图9所示第二实施例的不同之处在于,卷绕主体S位于卷绕中心的中空区域内设有中心管108,中心管108的一端与第一极耳12平齐,以便在放置转接件104与第一极耳12焊接时,可通过中心管108提供支撑力。
其次,本申请还提供了一种电池单体100的制造方法,在一些实施例中,如图14所示,制造方法包括:
S110、部件提供步骤:提供壳体101、端盖组件102以及极性相反的第一极片1和第二极片2;其中,壳体101具有开口1011,端盖组件102包括端盖本体1021和设在端盖本体1021上的电极端子1022,第一极片1包括第一主体部11和凸出于第一主体部11的第一极耳12,第二极片2包括第二主体部21和凸出于第二主体部21的第二极耳22;

其中,S110-S130顺序执行。
该实施例将第一极耳12和第二极耳22从卷绕主体S的同一端引出,只需要在电极组件10的一端预留电连接空间,也省去了在电池单体100的两端分别设置电极端子1022,可有效提高电池单体100的整体能量密度,在电池单体100的容量一定的情况下,能够减小电池单体100的体积,使电池200在用电装置中更容易布局。
而且,此种电池单体100只设置一个电极端子1022,可简化电池单体100的结构和装配工艺。通过省去一个电极端子,可在端盖本体1021上留出较大空间,易于在端盖本体1021上布局注液部件和泄压部件1024,也为布置温度采集部件、电池单体100间的汇流件和各类导线留出充裕的空间,也有利于增大电极端子1022的横截面积,以增加电池单体100的过流能力。
另外,第一极耳12和第二极耳22沿径向间隔设置,有利于增加第一极耳12和第二极耳22沿卷绕主体S周向的延伸尺寸,提高极耳与卷绕主体S的连接强度,使极耳根部具有较好的自支撑作用,在对极耳施加周向作用力揉平的过程中,减少极耳打皱现象,使揉平区域形状稳定,优化第一极耳12与电极端子1022、第二极耳22与端盖本体1021之间的电连接效果,保证电极组件10可靠地向外传输电能,并提高过流能力。
最后,本申请还提供了一种电池单体100的制造装置400,在一些实施例中,如图15所示,制造装置400包括:部件提供设备410、极片卷绕设备420和端盖安装设备430。
