The packaging shell of the application is used for sealing the first flange 12 of the first shell 1 and the second flange 21 of the second shell 2, the middle part 22 can cover the opening 11, so that the reliability of the battery cell packaging is improved, the shell-shaped packaging and alloy materials enable the battery cell not to need wider seal edges or folds, the uniformity of the size of the battery cell is improved, and meanwhile, the outside water vapor is not easy to penetrate into the battery cell, so that the reliability is further improved.
Referring to fig. 2, in one embodiment, the material of the first and second housings 1 and 2 is stainless steel. The stainless steel shell can protect the internal battery cell from falling damage and moisture attack. Alternatively, the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are each constructed as a stainless steel stamping. Because the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 are respectively constructed into stainless steel stamping forming pieces, edge folding is not needed, and therefore the defect that the energy density of the battery cell is low due to the fact that the head seal area and the side edge folding area of the flexible package battery cell in the prior art occupy too much volume is avoided, the volume ratio of packaging materials in the battery cell is reduced, and the energy density of the battery cell is improved. Of course, the materials of the first and second housings may be other alloy materials, such as nickel alloy, chromium alloy, etc., in addition to stainless steel.
In one embodiment of the application, the thickness of the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 ranges from 125 μm to 200 μm. The materials of the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 are alloys, so that the materials have high hardness and ductility, the thickness of 125-200 mu m can meet the packaging requirement of the battery core, the volume of the battery is small, and the volume energy density of the battery is high.
In one embodiment of the application, the width of both the first flange and the second flange is 0.4mm. Of course the width of the first flange and the second flange may also be 0.55mm.
As shown in fig. 2, in one embodiment, the second housing 2 is entirely flat to accommodate a small-sized battery cell. Or in other embodiments the second housing 2 comprises a bottom and a second side wall extending upwardly from the bottom, the second side wall extending outwardly forming a second flange 21.
Referring to fig. 2 and 3, in one embodiment, the intermediate portion 22 is surrounded by the second flange 21 and is connected to the second flange 21. The intermediate portion 22 is opposite to the opening 11 of the first housing 1, and the first flange 12 is in contact with the second flange 21; the package further comprises an explosion-proof valve 7 arranged at the outer surface of the intermediate portion 22. The explosion-proof valve 7 is used for releasing the pressure inside the battery cell by breaking the explosion-proof valve 7 when the pressure inside the battery cell rises to a threshold value, thereby preventing the explosion of the battery cell. The explosion-proof valve 7 is provided in the intermediate portion 22, but not in the second flange 21, in order to prevent the first flange 12 from blocking the explosion-proof valve 7, thereby affecting the normal performance of the explosion-proof function. It should be understood that in other embodiments, the explosion-proof valve 7 may also be provided on the first housing 1, which may also function to prevent explosion of the battery cell.
Referring to fig. 3, in one embodiment, the explosion-proof valve 7 is configured as an L-shaped groove, the explosion-proof valve 7 is disposed at an outer surface of the intermediate portion 22, and the depth of the explosion-proof valve 7 is smaller than the thickness of the second housing 2. When the second housing 2 is constructed as a square flat plate, the corners of the grooves are in agreement with the protruding direction of the corners of the square flat plate, the distance from the grooves to the edge of the second housing 2 is 1.5mm-3mm, the corners of the grooves are rounded corners, and the radius R of the rounded corners is 1mm. The grooves may be formed by a grooving process, such as etching or mechanical engraving. The explosion-proof valve 7 is arranged at the corner of the square flat plate, and the corners of the explosion-proof valve 7 and the square flat plate have consistent protruding directions, so that when the pressure inside the battery cell reaches a threshold value, the explosion-proof valve can be broken from the corner, and the explosion-proof effect can be better achieved.
Referring to fig. 4, in one embodiment, the groove forming the explosion proof valve 7 described above extends from the outer surface 23 of the intermediate portion 22 of the second housing 2 to the inner surface 24 of the intermediate portion 22 without penetrating the intermediate portion 22. The cross section of the groove in the thickness direction of the intermediate portion is V-shaped, and the distance of the bottom of the groove from the inner surface 24 of the intermediate portion is 15 μm to 35 μm. The distance is set so that the battery cell has a proper internal pressure threshold value, and when the internal pressure reaches the threshold value, the shell of the battery cell is broken preferentially from the explosion-proof valve 7, but not from other parts.
Referring to fig. 1, 5 and 6, in one embodiment, a positive electrode post 4, a negative electrode connection piece 5, a liquid injection port 14 and a nail 3 are provided on a package case, the positive electrode post 4 is insulated from the package case, the negative electrode connection piece 5 is connected to the package case, the liquid injection port 14 is formed on the package case, and the nail 3 seals the liquid injection port 14. Specifically, the positive electrode post 4 is riveted to the first side wall 13, the negative electrode connecting piece 5 is welded to the first side wall 13, and the nail 3 is welded to the outer surface of the first side wall 13 so as to cover the liquid inlet 14. The thickness of the nail 3 is the same as that of the first side wall 13 and is T, and the welding depth of the nail and the side wall is d, wherein T is less than d and less than 2T. In other words, the staples 3 and the first sidewall 13 have the fusion zone shown in fig. 7 below and the depth of the fusion zone described above. Through the welding and riveting processes and structures, the reliability of the battery cell packaging and the consistency of the battery cell size can be further improved.
Further, referring to fig. 1, the present application also provides a battery including a battery cell (not shown) and the package case according to the above embodiment, wherein the battery cell is accommodated in the package case, and the first flange 12 and the second flange 21 are connected by welding. The welding may be a fusion welding (penetration welding).
Referring to fig. 7, in one embodiment, a molten junction region is formed between the first flange 12 and the second flange 21, the molten junction region continuously sealing the opening 11. The second flange 21 and the first flange 12 have a molten connection region 6 formed therein in a welded manner, the molten connection region 6 penetrating the first flange 12 and extending into the second flange 21. The first flange 12 and the second flange 21 can be welded firmly together by the fusion bonding area 6, so that the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are not easy to separate accidentally, and the reliability of the cell package is improved in one aspect. Further, the molten connecting region 6 continuously surrounds the groove 11 along the first flange 12 and the second flange 21, and since the molten connecting region 6 continuously surrounds the groove 11, the inner space of the package case formed by the groove 11 can be well sealed, and the penetration of outside moisture into the inside of the battery cell is prevented, thereby improving the reliability of the battery cell package from another aspect.
