In one implementation, the energy storage device further includes a first insulating film and a second insulating film, wherein the first insulating film is adhered to and covers one side of the second connection portion facing away from the first tab connection portion, and the second insulating film is adhered to and covers one side of the fourth connection portion facing away from the second tab connection portion along the first direction. The second connecting portion is welded on one side of the first lug connecting portion, which is close to the first pole core group, and the fourth connecting portion is welded on one side of the second lug connecting portion, which is close to the second pole core group, so that short circuit can be avoided. In addition, the first insulating film and the second insulating film are located between the buffer piece and the switching piece, so that metal scraps such as welding slag and rusty scraps can be prevented from falling to the first electrode lug and the second electrode lug along the first direction from rotating the connecting piece side, or metal scraps such as welding slag and rusty scraps can be prevented from falling to the switching piece side along the first direction from the first electrode lug and the second electrode lug side, and internal short circuit of the energy storage device is caused.

The third insulating film has a larger length, and can better separate the first pole core group from the second pole core group, so that the injection and diffusion of the electrolyte are facilitated. If the length of the third insulating film is less than 1cm, the third insulating film plays a role in separating the first pole core group from the second pole core group. If the length of the third insulating film is greater than 4cm, the more third insulating film material is used, which increases the cost of the energy storage device.
In one implementation, the length of the fourth insulating film is 1cm-4cm along the third direction.

The thickness of the third insulating film is in the range of 1mm-5mm, which is not only beneficial to the injection and diffusion of electrolyte, but also can improve the space utilization rate of the energy storage device so as to improve the energy density of the energy storage device. The thickness of the third insulating film is larger than 5mm, the first pole core group and the second pole core group are separated too far, space is wasted, and the space utilization rate of the energy storage device is reduced. The thickness of the third insulating film is less than 1mm, which is unfavorable for the injection and diffusion of the electrolyte.
In one implementation, the thickness of the fourth insulating film is 1mm-5mm along the second direction. The thickness of the fourth insulating film is in the range of 1mm-5mm, which is not only beneficial to the injection and diffusion of electrolyte, but also can improve the space utilization rate of the energy storage device so as to improve the energy density of the energy storage device.

Because of the strong timeliness and space properties of energy required by people, in order to reasonably utilize the energy and improve the utilization rate of the energy, one energy form needs to be stored by one medium or equipment and then converted into another energy form, and the energy is released in a specific energy form based on future application. As is well known, in order to achieve the large goal of carbon neutralization, the current main way of generating green electric energy is to develop green energy sources such as photovoltaic, wind power and the like to replace fossil energy sources, the current generation of green electric energy generally depends on the problems of strong intermittence and large volatility of wind energy, solar energy and the like, the power grid is unstable, the electricity consumption is insufficient, the electricity consumption is too low, the unstable voltage also causes damage to the electric power, and therefore, the problem of 'wind abandoning and light abandoning' is possibly caused due to insufficient electricity consumption requirement or insufficient power grid receiving capability, and the problem needs to be solved by relying on energy storage. The energy is converted into other forms of energy through physical or chemical means and is stored, the energy is converted into electric energy when needed and released, in short, the energy storage is similar to a large-scale 'charge pal', the electric energy is stored when the photovoltaic and wind energy are sufficient, and the stored electric power is released when needed.
Taking electrochemical energy storage as an example, the scheme provides an energy storage device, wherein a chemical battery is arranged in the energy storage device, chemical elements in the chemical battery are mainly used as energy storage media, and the charge and discharge process is accompanied with chemical reaction or change of the energy storage media.

(2) The main operation modes of the small and medium-sized energy storage electric cabinet applied to the industrial and commercial energy storage scenes (banks, shops and the like) at the user side and the household small-sized energy storage box applied to the household energy storage scene at the user side are peak clipping and valley filling. Because of the large price difference of the electricity charge at the peak-valley position according to the electricity consumption requirement, after the energy storage equipment is arranged by a user, in order to reduce the cost, the energy storage cabinet/box is charged usually in the electricity price valley period; and in the peak period of electricity price, the electricity in the energy storage equipment is released for use, so that the purpose of saving electricity charge is achieved. In addition, in remote areas and areas with high occurrence of natural disasters such as earthquake, hurricane and the like, the household energy storage device is equivalent to the fact that a user provides a standby power supply for the user and the power grid, and inconvenience caused by frequent power failure due to disasters or other reasons is avoided.

The first tab 310 turns and bends around the buffer member 100, and the second tab 320 turns and bends around the buffer member 100. The outer sides of the first and second extension parts 110 and 120 are located inside the first and second tabs 310 and 320, respectively.

When the buffer member 100 is mounted to the energy storage device 10 and used for supporting the first tab 310 and the second tab 320, the end, away from the main body 130, of the first extension portion 110 and the end, away from the main body 130, of the second extension portion 120 are both close to the main body 130 (as shown in fig. 7), at this time, the folding degree of the first extension portion 110 and the second extension portion 120 relative to the main body 130 is relatively large, at this time, the buffer member 100 is relatively compressed, and the buffer member 100 is abutted to the bending parts of the first tab 310 and the second tab 320 so as to prop the bending parts of the first tab 310 and the second tab 320 open, thereby avoiding the problem that the first tab 310 and the second tab 320 are broken due to bending fatigue.

On the other hand, one buffer member 100 can support two tabs, so that the utilization rate of the buffer member 100 is improved, the number of the buffer members 100 is reduced, and the energy storage device 10 is convenient to assemble. In still another aspect, the buffer member 100 is insulated from the adapter piece 200, the first tab 310 and the second tab 320, and the buffer member 100 is bonded to the central portion 240, so that the buffer member 100 can be well fixed while electrical connection between the first tab 310, the second tab 320 and the adapter piece 200 is not affected, and displacement of the buffer member 100 caused in the process of bending the first tab 310 and the second tab 320 is avoided, so that the buffer member 100 can better play a role in supporting the first tab 310 and the second tab 320.
Referring to fig. 3 and 5, in one implementation, the first tab 310 includes a first connection portion 311 and a second connection portion 312 that are connected, the first connection portion 311 is connected to the first pole core group 330, and the second connection portion 312 is connected to the first tab connection portion 210; the second lug 320 comprises a third connecting portion 321 and a fourth connecting portion 322 which are connected, the third connecting portion 321 is connected with the second pole core group 340, and the fourth connecting portion 322 is connected with the second lug connecting portion 220; along the first direction X, at least part of the first extension portion 110 and at least part of the main body portion 130 are located between the first connection portion 311 and the second connection portion 312, and at least part of the second extension portion 120 and at least part of the main body portion 130 are located between the third connection portion 321 and the fourth connection portion 322. The buffer 100 can prevent the first and second connection portions 311 and 312 from excessively approaching in the first direction X, and a certain distance is maintained between the first and second connection portions 311 and 312 so that the degree of bending at the connection of the first and second connection portions 311 and 312 is not excessively great. Meanwhile, the buffer member 100 can prevent the third and fourth connection portions 321 and 322 from excessively approaching in the first direction X, and a certain distance is maintained between the third and fourth connection portions 321 and 322 so that the degree of bending at the connection of the third and fourth connection portions 321 and 322 is not excessively great. The first tab 310 and the second tab 320 are not easily broken, so that the safety and the product yield of the energy storage device 10 are improved.
In an embodiment, the first tab 310 further includes a first bending portion 313 (as shown in fig. 5), and two ends of the first bending portion 313 are respectively connected to the first connecting portion 311 and the second connecting portion 312; the second lug 320 further includes a second bending portion 323, and two ends of the second bending portion 323 are respectively connected to the third connecting portion 321 and the fourth connecting portion 322.

With this structure, the first tab 310 is bent as regularly as possible, thereby increasing the space utilization inside the energy storage device 10.
In an embodiment, the buffer 100 further includes a first bending section 141 and a second bending section 142 (as shown in fig. 4 and 5), where the first bending section 141 connects the first extension portion 110 and the main portion 130, and the second bending section 142 connects the main portion 130 and the second extension portion 120. Along the second direction Y, the first bending section 141 is disposed near the first bending portion 313, and the second bending section 142 is disposed near the second bending portion 323. Through addding first section of buckling 141 and second section of buckling 142, the angle of buckling that is connected between first extension 110 and the main part 130 after buckling twice is less, and the angle of buckling that is also connected between main part 130 and the second extension 120 after buckling twice is less, not only can improve the life of bolster 100, can also avoid bolster 100 to damage the tab because the angle of buckling is too big at both ends along second direction Y forms the pointed end. In addition, the first tab 310 sequentially extends to the main body 130 around the first extension portion 110 and the first bending section 141, the second tab 320 sequentially extends to the main body 130 around the second extension portion 120 and the second bending section 142, and the tab needs to be bent twice, so that the bending degree of each tab is relieved, the tab is prevented from being broken at the bending position, and the safety of the energy storage device 10 is further improved.
In one implementation, the energy storage device 10 further includes a glue layer 400 (as shown in fig. 8), with the body portion 130 and the central portion 240 being bonded by the glue layer 400. The glue layer 400 has adhesiveness and insulation. Between the main body 130 and the central portion 240 is a glue layer 400, by means of which the main body 130 is glued to the central portion 240. Through setting up glue film 400, promoted the joint strength of bolster 100 and change piece 200, avoided leading to the fact bolster 100 to take place to shift at the in-process that first utmost point ear 310 and second utmost point ear 320 buckled, and then guaranteed that bolster 100 can be better by fixed to make bolster 100 play the effect that supports first utmost point ear 310 and second utmost point ear 320 better.
In an embodiment, the buffer member 100 includes a first surface 151 and a second surface 152 disposed opposite to each other, the first extension portion 110 and the second extension portion 120 are disposed in a bent manner, the second surface 152 is located inside the bend of the buffer member 100, and the adhesive layer 400 covers the first surface 151. The main body 130 has a glue layer 400 on a side facing the switching piece 200, the glue layer 400 is disposed between the first tab 310 and a side of the first extension 110 facing the first pole core group 330, and the first tab 310 is adhered to the side of the first extension 110 facing the first pole core group 330 through the glue layer 400. The glue layer 400 is disposed between the second tab 320 and the side of the second extension portion 120 facing the second core set 340, and the second tab 320 is adhered to the side of the second extension portion 120 facing the second core set 340 through the glue layer 400. By providing the adhesive layer 400, the connection of the buffer member 100 with the switching piece 200, the first tab 310 and the second tab 320 is more convenient. And facilitates better securement of the buffer member 100 such that the buffer member 100 better functions to support the first tab 310 and the second tab 320.
In one implementation, the energy storage device 10 further includes a first insulating film 510 and a second insulating film 520 (as shown in fig. 8), the first insulating film 510 being bonded to and covering a side of the second connection portion 312 facing away from the first tab connection portion 210, and the second insulating film 520 being bonded to and covering a side of the fourth connection portion 322 facing away from the second tab connection portion 220 along the first direction X. The adapter plate 200 further includes a pole connection portion 230 connected to the central portion 240, where one side of the pole connection portion 230 facing away from the buffer member 100 is used for being connected to the pole 600, in this application, the second connection portion 312 is welded to one side of the first tab connection portion 210, which is close to the first pole core group 330, and the fourth connection portion 322 is welded to one side of the second tab connection portion 220, which is close to the second pole core group 340, so that the adapter plate 200 can be prevented from being shorted when being connected to the pole 600, the first tab 310 and the second tab 320.
The number of the first insulating films 510 may be selected to be a single layer or a plurality of layers. The first insulating film 510 is disposed between the buffer member 100 and the adapter sheet 200, and can prevent metal scraps such as welding slag and rusted scraps from falling from the tab 200 side to the first tab 310 and the second tab 320 side in the first direction X, or can prevent metal scraps such as welding slag and rusted scraps from falling from the first tab 310 and the second tab 320 side to the tab 200 side in the first direction X, thereby causing an internal short circuit of the energy storage device 10. The first insulating film 510 improves the safety performance of the energy storage device 10. In addition, the adhesion performance between the first insulating film 510 and the second insulating film 520 and the adhesive layer 400 is poor, so that the center portion 240 is exposed at the gap between the first insulating film 510 and the second insulating film 520, so that the center portion 240 and the main body portion 130 are directly adhered through the adhesive layer 400, and further, the connection strength between the center portion 240 and the main body portion 130 is ensured, the risk that the buffer member 100 shifts under the conditions of dropping, vibration and the like of the energy storage device 10 is reduced, and the buffer member 100 can better play a role of supporting the first tab 310 and the second tab 320.
Since the buffer 100 has elasticity and the first and second insulating films 510 and 520 are located at the side of the body part 130 facing the switching piece 200, the first and second insulating films 510 and 520 can be clamped between the buffer 100 and the switching piece 200 by the elastic force of the buffer 100, thereby preventing the first and second insulating films 510 and 520 from being displaced to better play the roles of the first and second insulating films 510 and 520.
In one implementation, along the third direction Z, the length of the first insulating film 510 is greater than the length of the first tab 310; the length of the second insulating film 520 is greater than the length of the second tab 320, the third direction Z is a direction perpendicular to the first direction X and the second direction Y, and the second direction Y is an arrangement direction of the first and second electrode core groups 330 and 340. The length of the first insulating film 510 is L51 in fig. 10, the length of the first tab 310 is L6 in fig. 10, the length of the second insulating film 520 is L52 in fig. 10, and the length of the second tab 320 is L7 in fig. 10. The first insulating film 510 and the second insulating film 520 have longer lengths, and have better insulating protection effects.
In one embodiment, the thickness of the first insulating film 510 and the second insulating film 520 is 0.05mm to 0.5mm. The thickness of the first insulating film 510 and the second insulating film 520 needs to be determined according to the actual product design, and the first insulating film 510 and the second insulating film 520 may be easily damaged if being too thin, and the first insulating film 510 and the second insulating film 520 may increase the weight of the energy storage device 10 and reduce the energy density of the energy storage device 10. In this application, the thickness of the first and second insulating films 510 and 520 is in the range of 0.05-0.5mm, which is not easily damaged nor excessively increases the weight of the energy storage device 10.
In one implementation, the sum of the width of the first extension portion 110 and the width of the second extension portion 120 is smaller than the width of the main body portion 130 along the second direction Y, which is the arrangement direction of the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340. The width of the first extension portion 110 refers to a distance between two sides of the first extension portion 110 along the second direction Y, for example, W1 in fig. 7. The width of the second extension 120 refers to a distance between two sides of the second extension 120 along the second direction Y, for example, W2 in fig. 7. The width of the body 130 refers to the distance between both sides of the body 130 in the second direction Y, for example, W3 in fig. 7. In this application, w1+w2 < W3 for after the first extension portion 110 and the second extension portion 120 are turned over relative to the main body portion 130, the first extension portion 110 and the second extension portion 120 may not contact each other, the first extension portion 110 and the second extension portion 120 may not overlap along the first direction X, and the buffer member 100 may prevent the first tab 310 and the second tab 320 from being excessively bent, and meanwhile may further save the material of the buffer member 100, so as to reduce the cost.
In one implementation, along the second direction Y, a first gap 101 (as shown in fig. 2 and 4) is formed between the first extension portion 110 and the second extension portion 120, and a second gap 301 (as shown in fig. 2) is formed between the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340, where the second direction Y is the arrangement direction of the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340; the first gap 101 is opposite to the second gap 301. In this application, the first gap 101 facing the second gap 301 means that the first gap 101 facing the second gap 301 at least partially overlaps in the first direction X. With this design, on the one hand, the electrolyte flowing down from the first gap 101 can directly flow into the second gap 301, so that the electrolyte is rapidly supplied and circulated to the first and second pole core groups 330 and 340, and the impact of the electrolyte on the first and second pole core groups 330 and 340 can be reduced to protect the first and second pole core groups 330 and 340. In addition, the first gap 101 faces the second gap 301, so that the balance of the energy storage device 10 can be better maintained.
In one implementation, the width of the first gap 101 in the second direction Y is 2mm-5mm. The width of the first gap 101 in the second direction Y is L3 as shown in fig. 7. It will be appreciated that when the electrolyte flows from the tabs 200 to the pole core assembly 300, a portion of the electrolyte flows from the main body 130 to the first pole core set 330 and the second pole core set 340 along the first extension 110 and the second extension 120. If the width of the first gap 101 is too small, the electrolyte flowing down along the first and second extensions 110 and 120 intensively impacts the same position of the first and second electrode core groups 330 and 340, which may cause damage to the electrode core. If the width of the first gap 101 is too large, the widths of the first extension portion 110 and the second extension portion 120 along the second direction Y are smaller, which is not beneficial for the buffer member 100 to better support the first tab 310 and the second tab 320, and the problem that the first extension portion 110 and the second extension portion 120 scratch the first tab and the second tab respectively easily occurs. In this application, the width of the first gap 101 along the second direction Y is set within the range of 2mm-5mm, so that the electrolyte flowing down along the first extension portion 110 and the second extension portion 120 will not impact the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340, improving the safety performance of the energy storage device 10, and protecting the first pole tab 310 and the second pole tab 320.
In an embodiment, the width of the first gap 101 in the second direction Y may be 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, or 5mm.
In one implementation, the width of the first extension 110 is equal to the width of the second extension 120 along the second direction Y. The buffer member 100 is uniformly stressed and has good supporting effect on the first tab 310 and the second tab 320.
In one implementation, the width of the first extension 110 is greater than the width of the second extension 120. The edges of the first extension 110 near the second extension 120 near the center of the pole piece assembly 300 better achieve the flow guiding effect for the electrolyte.
In one implementation manner, the energy storage device 10 further includes a third insulating film 530 (as shown in fig. 9), where the third insulating film 530 is located on a side surface of the first pole core group 330 near the second pole core group 340, and along a third direction Z, the third insulating film 530 is disposed in a middle portion of the first pole core group 330, and the third direction Z is a direction perpendicular to the first direction X and the second direction Y, and the second direction Y is an arrangement direction of the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340. The third insulating film 530 may be adhered to a side surface of the first pole core group 330 near the second pole core group 340.

It can be appreciated that the third insulating film 530 separates the first electrode core set 330 and the second electrode core set 340 at or near the middle position of the first electrode core set 330 in the third direction Z, and the electrolyte is injected into the energy storage device 10 from the middle, so as to be rapidly diffused around. In addition, the middle part consumes fast, the circumferential direction consumes less liquid, and under the conditions of vibration, shaking and the like of the energy storage device, the electrolyte overflowed from the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340 can be redistributed to the middle part in time through the second gap 301. In this application, the third insulating film 530 is disposed at a middle position of the first pole core group 330 along the third direction Z, so as to facilitate injection and diffusion of the electrolyte.

The fourth insulating film 540 may be adhered to a side surface of the second pole core group 340 near the first pole core group 330. The fourth insulating film 540 is disposed between the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340, and the fourth insulating film 540 has a certain thickness, and can separate the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340 to form the second gap 301, so that the electrolyte is conveniently injected into the energy storage device 10 from the second gap 301.
It can be appreciated that the fourth insulating film 540 separates the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340 at or near the middle position of the second pole core group 340 in the third direction Z, and the electrolyte is injected into the energy storage device 10 from the middle, so as to be rapidly diffused around. In addition, the middle part consumes fast, the circumferential direction consumes less liquid, and under the conditions of vibration, shaking and the like of the energy storage device, the electrolyte overflowed from the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340 can be redistributed to the middle part in time through the second gap 301. In this application, the fourth insulating film 540 is disposed at a middle position of the first pole core group 330 along the third direction Z, so as to facilitate injection and diffusion of the electrolyte.
In an embodiment, along the second direction Y, two side surfaces of the second pole core group 340 and the first pole core group 330, which are close to each other, have the third insulating film 530 and the fourth insulating film 540, respectively.

In addition, the third insulating film 530 and/or the fourth insulating film 540 are located between the two buffers 100, and the third insulating film 530 and/or the fourth insulating film 540 are disposed near or in the middle of the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340 along the third direction Z, so as to facilitate injection and diffusion of the electrolyte.
In one implementation, a ratio of a length of the third insulating film 530 or the fourth insulating film 540 to a distance between the two buffers 100 is greater than or equal to 2/3 in the third direction Z. The length of the third insulating film 530 refers to the distance between both sides of the third insulating film 530 in the third direction Z, and the length of the third insulating film 530 is L4a in fig. 9.

It is understood that if the length of the third insulating film 530 or the fourth insulating film 540 is too small, the function of separating the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340 by the third insulating film 530 or the fourth insulating film 540 is not obvious. In this application, the ratio of the length of the third insulating film 530 or the fourth insulating film 540 to the distance between the two buffers 100 is greater than or equal to 2/3, and the length of the third insulating film 530 or the fourth insulating film 540 is greater, so that the first pole core group 330 and the second pole core group 340 can be better separated, so that the electrolyte is injected and diffused.
