本公开的防爆阀贴片中,由于设置闭合凸环,且排气孔位于所述闭合凸环上或所述闭合凸环围设的区域内,闭合凸环可以阻挡其外周的液 体,如电解液,从而可以防止电解液流至排气孔,并经排气孔流至防爆阀贴片和防爆阀之间的空间内,防止电解液对防爆阀产生腐蚀,同时,闭合凸环具有较强的抗变形能力,利于保持闭合凸环的形状,从而利于保持对防爆阀的防护能力。

在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片中,所述加强棱包括所述内部加强棱段,其中,所述排气孔避让所述内部加强棱段;或所述排气孔位于所述内部加强棱段上。该设置利于兼顾加强棱和排气孔的位置设置,使加强棱和排气孔的布置更加灵活。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片中,所述加强棱包括:直线加强棱段,所述直线加强棱段沿直线延伸;和/或曲线加强棱段,所述曲线加强棱段沿曲线延伸。该设置利于根据闭合凸环附近空间灵活布置加强棱。

下面将结合本公开实施例中的附图,对本公开实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本公开一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。以下对至少一个示例性实施例的描述实际上仅仅是说明性的,决不作为对本公开及其应用或使用的任何限制。基于本公开中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本公开保护的范围。
除非另外具体说明,否则在这些实施例中阐述的部件和步骤的相对布置、数字表达式和数值不限制本公开的范围。同时,应当明白,为了便于描述,附图中所示出的各个部分的尺寸并不是按照实际的比例关系绘制的。对于相关领域普通技术人员已知的技术、方法和设备可能不作详细讨论,但在适当情况下,所述技术、方法和设备应当被视为授权说明书的一部分。在这里示出和讨论的所有示例中,任何具体值应被解释为仅仅是示例性的,而不是作为限制。因此,示例性实施例的其它示例可以具有不同的值。应注意到:相似的标号和字母在下面的附图中表示类似项,因此,一旦某一项在一个附图中被定义,则在随后的附图中不需要对其进行进一步讨论。

本公开实施例的电池的防爆阀贴片为膜片结构,其贴合于电池单体的防爆阀上方,用于平衡防爆阀内外的压差,防止电解液浸入防爆阀。
由于防爆阀贴片会有一定的密封作用,检测防爆阀气密性是否良好时,可能会使有气密缺陷的防爆阀被误判为气密性良好。为此,可以在防爆阀帖片上设置排气孔,以在气密性检测时准确地检测防爆阀的气密性能。然而,由于设置排气孔,如果电池的端盖上存在液体时,例如因电解液溢流等原因存在电解液时,电解液可能流到防爆阀贴片上并通过其上的排气孔进入防爆阀贴片和防爆阀之间的空间内,从而导致防爆阀贴片对防爆阀的防护能力降低。为此,防止电解液等液体向排气孔流动,可以在防爆阀贴片上设置向远离防爆阀的方向突出的凸台,并将排气孔设置于凸台上,通过凸台可以阻挡向排气孔流动的电解液。
然而,在实现本申请的过程中,发明人发现,防爆阀贴片本身需具有一定的变形能力以防止对电池的相关结构产生不利影响,在防爆阀贴片上设置凸台,并将排气孔设置于凸台上的技术方案中,凸台较易发生变形,凸台变形后仍难以阻挡电解液向排气孔流动,从而难以发挥凸台的作用,影响防爆阀贴片的防护效果。
为了解决前述技术问题,本申请实施例提供一种用于电池的防爆阀 贴片、端盖组件、电池和用电装置。
本公开实施例的用电装置包括本公开实施例的电池,电池用于为用电装置供电。本公开实施例的电池包括本公开实施例的端盖组件。本公开实施例的端盖组件包括本公开实施例的防爆阀贴片。
该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。
本公开实施例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,电池可以包括电池模块或电池包等。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。
电池包括三个层次:电池单体、电池模块和电池包。电池单体是指组成电池模块或电池包的最小单元。
多个电池单体可经由电极端子而被串联和/或并联在一起以应用于各种应用场合。在一些诸如电动汽车等的大功率应用场合。
电池模块是为了从外部冲击、热、振动等中保护电池单体,将一定数目的电池单体电连接在一起并放入一个框架中而形成的。随着技术的发展,电池模块这个层次可以被省略,也即,直接由电池单体形成电池包。
电池包则是装入如电动汽车等大功率用电装置的电池***的最终状态。电池包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。箱体一般由盖体和箱壳组成。目前的大部分电池包是在一个或多个电池模块上装配电池管理***(Battery Management System,BMS)、热管理部件等各种控制和保护***而制成的。
本公开实施例中所提到的电池包括电池单体、电池模块或电池包。
本公开的实施例中,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,本公开实施例对此并不作限定。电池单体可呈圆柱体、扁平体、长方体或其它形状等,本公开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、方体方形电池单体和软包电池单体,本公开实施例对此也不作限定。
电池单体主要包括电芯组件、壳体和端盖组件,电芯组件通过端盖组件的端盖封装于壳体内。
电芯组件是电池单体中发生电化学反应的部件。壳体内可以包含一个或更多个电芯组件。电芯组件主要由正极片和负极片卷绕或层叠放置形成,并且通常在正极片与负极片之间设有隔膜。正极片和负极片具有活性物质的部分构成电芯组件的主体部,正极片和负极片不具有活性物质的部分各自构成极耳。正极极耳和负极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,极耳连接电极端子以形成电流回路。电芯组件可以是卷绕式结构,也可以是叠片式结构,本公开实施例并不限于此。
电极组件可以为卷绕式结构。其中,将带状的第一极片、隔膜以及第二极片依次层叠并卷绕两圈以上形成电极组件,并且电极组件可以呈扁平状。在电极组件制作时,电极组件可直接卷绕为扁平状,使电极组件大 致为六面体结构,也可以先卷绕成中空的圆柱形结构,卷绕之后再压平为扁平状。扁平面大致平行于卷绕轴线且为面积最大的外表面。扁平面可以是相对平整的表面,并不要求是纯平面。
电极组件也可为叠片式结构,即电极组件中包括多个第一极片以及多个第二极片,隔膜设置在第一极片和第二极片之间。第一极片和第二极片层叠设置。
壳体是用于配合端盖以形成电池单体的内部环境的组件,其中,形成的内部环境可以用于容纳电芯组件、电解质以及其他部件。壳体和端盖可以是独立的部件,可以于壳体上设置开口,通过在开口处使端盖盖合开口以形成电池单体的内部环境。壳体可以是多种形状和多种尺寸的,例如长方体形、圆柱体形、六棱柱形等。具体地,壳体的形状可以根据电芯组件的具体形状和尺寸大小来确定。壳体的材质可以是多种,比如,铜、铁、铝、不锈钢、铝合金、塑胶等,本公开实施例对此不作特殊限制。
端盖是指盖合于壳体的开口处以将电池单体的内部环境隔绝于外部环境的部件。端盖的形状可以与壳体的形状相适应以配合壳体。可选地,端盖可以由具有一定硬度和强度的材质(如铝合金)制成,这样,端盖在受挤压碰撞时就不易发生形变,使电池单体能够具备更高的结构强度,安全性能也可以有所提高。端盖上可以设置有如电极端子等的功能性部件。电极端子可以用于与电芯组件电连接,以用于输出或输入电池单体的电能。在一些实施例中,端盖上还可以设置有用于在电池单体的内部压力或温度达到阈值时泄放内部压力的泄压机构。端盖的材质也可以是多种的,比如,铜、铁、铝、不锈钢、铝合金、塑胶等,本公开实施例对此不作限制。
泄压机构是指电池单体的内部压力或温度达到预定阈值时致动以泄 放内部压力或温度的元件或部件。该阈值设计根据设计需求不同而不同。所述阈值可能取决于电池单体中的正极极片、负极极片、电解液和隔离膜中一种或几种的材料。泄压机构可以采用防爆阀,当电池单体的内部压力或温度达到预定阈值时,泄压机构执行动作或者泄压机构中设有的薄弱结构被破坏,从而形成可供内部压力或温度泄放的开口或通道。
泄压机构在致动时,电池单体的内部的高温高压物质作为排放物会从致动的部位向外排出。以此方式能够在可控压力或温度的情况下使电池单体发生泄压及泄温,从而避免潜在的更严重的事故发生。
防爆阀作为一种常用的泄压机构,通常设在电池单体的端盖上,防爆阀例如可以为端盖的平板面的一部分,也可以与端盖的平板面焊接。例如,防爆阀可以具有刻痕,该刻痕的深度小于防爆阀除刻痕处其他区域的厚度以达到不穿透防爆阀的目的,即在正常状态下,防爆阀与端盖密封结合,通过端盖在壳体的开口处与壳体连接形成放置电极组件的外壳,该外壳形成的空间密封不透气。该外壳内,当电池单体产生的气体太多时,气体发生膨胀使外壳内的气压升高至超出预设值时,防爆阀在刻痕处裂开而导致外壳内外相通,气体通过防爆阀的裂开处向外释放,进而避免发生***。
在一些实施例中,在端盖的内侧还可以设置有绝缘件,绝缘件可以用于隔离壳体内的电连接部件与端盖,以降低短路的风险。示例性的,绝缘件可以是塑料、橡胶等。
如图2至图8所示,本公开实施例的用于电池的防爆阀贴片15具有排气孔15A,防爆阀贴片15包括:贴片主体151;和闭合凸环152,从贴片主体151的表面向同一侧突出地设置于贴片主体151上,排气孔15A位于闭合凸环152上或闭合凸环152围设的区域内。
本公开实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,由于设置闭合凸环152,且排气孔15A位于闭合凸环152上或闭合凸环152围设的区域内,闭合凸环152可以阻挡其外周的液体,如电解液,从而可以防止电解液流至排气孔15A,并经排气孔15A流至防爆阀贴片15和防爆阀14之间的空间内,防止电解液对防爆阀产生腐蚀,同时,相对于仅设置凸台的相关技术而言,在同等条件下,如相同材质、相同厚度、相同外径等,闭合凸环152比凸台具有更强的抗变形能力,从而利于保持闭合凸环152的形状,以利于保持对防爆阀14的防护能力。其中,设置排气孔15A意在防爆阀贴片15起到保护防爆阀14的同时可以保证防爆阀14进行气密检测时不会因防爆阀贴片15的存在而发生误判。
防爆阀贴片15可以采用PP(polypropylene,聚丙烯)、PC(Polycarbonate,聚碳酸酯)、PET(Polyethylene terephthalate,涤纶树脂)等材质制作,厚度例如可以为0.08mm~0.4mm,闭合凸环152相对于贴片主体151突出的高度例如为0.2mm~1.2mm,排气孔15A的形状和数量可以根据需要设置,排气孔例如为直径0.2mm以上的圆孔。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,闭合凸环152与贴片主体151由同一片材一体加工形成。该设置利于防爆阀贴片15加工成型,具有较高的加工效率。例如,防爆阀贴片15的闭合凸环152与贴片主体151可以通过热压一体成型。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,闭合凸环152在贴片主体151上的投影包括至少一条闭合轮廓线,各闭合轮廓线的形状为曲线形、多边形或曲线与直线的组合。闭合凸环152可以设置为多种形状有利于根据防爆阀贴片15的材质、厚度、防爆阀贴片15周围部件的形状和位置等选择合适的闭合凸环152的形状,提高防爆阀贴片15的防护能力和适应性。
例如,如图2至图8所示的闭合凸环152因本身结构存在过渡圆角,与贴片主体151之间也存在过渡圆角,在闭合凸环152的顶部内侧和外侧各形成多条闭合轮廓线。各闭合轮廓线的形状均为图2至图8所示的圆形。
在一些未图示的实施例中,各闭合轮廓线也可以均为椭圆形、均为梅花形等曲线形状,还可以均为三角形、均为四边形、均为六边形等多边形形状,亦可以为均为长圆形、均为圆角多边形等曲线与直线组合的形状等。
另外,多条闭合轮廓线的线型可以是相同的,如均为圆形。在未图示的实施例中,多条闭合轮廓线的线型也可以是不同的。例如位于闭合凸环顶部外侧的闭合轮廓线可以为多边形,而位于闭合凸环顶部内侧的闭合轮廓线可以是圆形。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,闭合凸环152的垂直于闭合凸环的延伸方向的截面的截面形状为曲线形、多边形或曲线与直线的组合。闭合凸环152的截面形状可以设置为多种形状有利于根据防爆阀贴片15的材质、厚度、防爆阀贴片15周围部件的形状和位置等选择合适的闭合凸环152的截面形状,提高防爆阀贴片15的防护能力和适应性。
闭合凸环的前述截面形状可以是直线与曲线组合的形状,例如可以为图2至图8所示实施例的具有弧形倒角的多边形。闭合凸环的前述截面形状也可以是圆弧形,椭圆弧形等曲线形状。闭合凸环的前述截面形状还可以为三角形、梯形等多边形形状。
如图7和图8所示,在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,防爆阀贴片15还包括靠近闭合凸环152以加强闭合凸环152的强度的加强棱153,加强棱153从贴片主体151的表面突出地设置于贴片主体151上。设置加强 棱153有利于进一步提高闭合凸环152的抗变形能力,从而利于保持闭合凸环152的形状,以利于保持对防爆阀14的防护能力。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,加强棱153与贴片主体151由同一片材一体加工形成。该设置利于防爆阀贴片15加工成型,具有较高的加工效率。例如,防爆阀贴片15的闭合凸环152与贴片主体151以及加强棱153可以通过热压一体成型。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,加强棱153包括:外部加强棱段,位于闭合凸环152围设的区域外部;和/或内部加强棱段,位于闭合凸环152围设的区域内部。加强棱153包括外部加强棱段和/或内部加强棱段,可提高闭合凸环152的抗变形能力,外部加强棱段不受闭合凸环152围设的区域大小限制,设置可以更加灵活,内部加强棱段可以不占用闭合凸环152外的面积,在组装和使用时利于更好地避让电池和端盖组件10的其它部件。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,加强棱153包括内部加强棱段,其中,排气孔15A避让内部加强棱段;或排气孔15A位于内部加强棱段上。该设置利于兼顾加强棱和排气孔15A的位置设置,使加强棱和排气孔15A的布置更加灵活。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,加强棱153包括:直线加强棱段;和/或曲线加强棱段。该设置利于根据闭合凸环152附近空间灵活布置加强棱。例如,如果在闭合凸环152与排气孔15A之间沿周向布置多个加强棱,多个加强棱可以布置为直线型的,如沿径向延伸的直线加强棱,或与径向呈一定角度的直线加强棱,多个加强棱也可以布置为曲线形的,如弧形的加强棱或S形的加强棱等。类似地,也可以在闭合凸环152外布置多个沿周向分布的直线的或曲线的加强棱。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,加强棱153包括:同侧加强棱段,与闭合凸环152从贴片主体151的表面突出的方向相同;和/或异侧加强棱段,与闭合凸环152从贴片主体151的表面突出的方向相反。该设置利于根据闭合凸环152附近空间灵活布置加强棱。
在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,加强棱153包括:连接加强棱段,与闭合凸环152连接;和/或间隔加强棱段,与闭合凸环152间隔。该设置利于根据闭合凸环152附近空间灵活布置加强棱。例如,图7所示实施例的防爆阀贴片15中加强棱153的多个棱段均为与闭合凸环152间隔的间隔加强棱段。
以上各实施例的加强棱的设置中,同一加强棱段可以具有多种属性,例如,同一加强棱段可以同时是内部加强棱段、曲线加强棱段、异侧加强棱段和间隔加强棱段。

如图2至图8所示,电池的防爆阀贴片15具有排气孔15A。防爆阀贴片15包括贴片主体151和圆形的闭合凸环152。闭合凸环152的垂直于闭合凸环的延伸方向的截面的截面形状为具有弧形倒角的方形,且具有弧形倒角的方形与贴片主体151的连接处也具有弧形倒角。如图3至图8所 示,闭合凸环152的顶壁与外侧壁之间、顶壁与内侧壁之间、外侧壁与贴片主体151之间和内侧壁与贴片主体151之间均存在弧形倒角,在闭合凸环152的顶部内侧和外侧各形成多条闭合轮廓线。各闭合轮廓线的形状均为圆形。闭合凸环152从贴片主体151的表面向同一侧突出地设置于贴片主体151上。一个圆形排气孔15A位于闭合凸环152围设的区域内。闭合凸环152与贴片主体151由同一片材一体通过热压方式一体成型。防爆阀贴片15由PP材料制成,厚度为0.2mm。
本实施例中贴片主体151的形状为长圆形,排气孔15A与闭合凸环152同心设置,位于长圆形的中心位置。但是,贴片主体151的形状、排气孔15A和闭合凸环152的位置均不限于此,而是可以根据需要设置和布置。其中排气孔15A也可以设置于闭合凸环152上,例如可以设置于闭合凸环152的远离贴片主体151的顶壁上,也可以设置于闭合凸环152的内侧壁上。
闭合凸环152相对于贴片主体151突出的高度例为0.5mm,排气孔15A的形状和数量可以根据需要设置,排气孔15A的直径例如为0.3mm。
如图7和图8所示,在一些实施例的防爆阀贴片15中,防爆阀贴片15还包括靠近闭合凸环152以加强闭合凸环152的强度的加强棱153,加强棱153从贴片主体151的表面突出地设置于贴片主体151上。
图7所示的实施例中,加强棱153包括位于闭合凸环152围设的区域内部的呈辐射状排布的四个加强棱段。排气孔15A避让各加强棱段。各加强棱段属于前述的内部加强棱段、沿直线延伸的直线加强棱段、与闭合凸环152从贴片主体151的表面突出的方向相同的同侧加强棱段以及与闭合凸环152间隔设置的间隔加强棱段。
