在一些可能的实施方式中,第一箱壁与至少一个电池单体的第一壁之间设置有隔离部件,隔离部件用于在箱体的内部形成相互隔离的电气腔和排气腔;电气腔用于容纳至少一个电池单体,至少一个电池单体的排放物经由隔离部件排放至排气腔,围挡机构设置于排气腔中,且围挡机构附接于隔离部件和第一箱壁,围挡机构用于在排气腔中围合形成与至少一个电池单体的第一泄压机构对应的第一排气空间。
通过本申请实施例的技术方案,箱体被隔离部件分隔为相互隔离的电气腔和排气腔,因此,电气腔中电池单体的排放物会先经由隔离部件排放至排气腔,而不会直接对电气腔中的电池单体的电气结构造成影响,从而进一步提高电池的安全性能。进一步地,围挡机构设置于排气腔中,用于对排放物进行导向,以使得其仅能通过围挡机构中的开口排放,延长该排放物在箱体内部的排放路径,以更进一步提高电池的安全性能。

在一些可能的实施方式中,围挡机构为间断式结构,围挡机构由多个围挡部形成,多个围挡部中相邻的两个围挡部之间的间隙形成第一过滤孔。

在一些可能的实施方式中,排放物在第一泄压机构与第二泄压机构之间的排放路径内设置有过滤部件、气体吸收部件和冷却部件中的至少一者。
通过该实施方式的技术方案,在排放路径内设置过滤部件、气体吸收部件和冷却部件中的至少一者,可以进一步降低排放至箱体外部的排放物的危害,提升电池的安全性能。

通过该实施方式的技术方案,电池单体经由第一泄压机构排放的排放物在箱体的内部经过较长的排放路径后,其到达第二泄压机构处的温度相比于在第一泄压机构处的温度实现了较大程度的较低,从而防止排放物排放至电池的外部造成安全隐患。

具体实施方式
下面结合附图和实施例对本申请的实施方式作进一步详细描述。以下实施例的详细描述和附图用于示例性地说明本申请的原理,但不能用来限制本申请的范围,即本申请不限于所描述的实施例。
在本申请的描述中,需要说明的是,除非另有说明,“多个”的含义是两个以上;术语“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”、“内”、“外”等指示的方位或位置关系仅是为了便于描述本申请和简化描述,而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或元件必须具有特定的方位、以特定的方位构造和操作,因此不能理解为对本申请的限制。
本申请中术语“和/或”,仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:存在A,同时存在A和B,存在B这三种情况。另外,本申请中字符“/”,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
除非另有定义,本申请所使用的所有的技术和科学术语与属于本申请的技术领域的技术人员通常理解的含义相同;本申请中在申请的说明书中所使用的术语只是为了描述具体的实施例的目的,不是旨在于限制本申请;本申请的说明书和权利要求书及上述附图说明中的术语“包括”和“具有”以及它们的任何变形,意图在于覆盖不排他的包含。本申请的说明书、权利要求书或附图中的术语“第一”、“第二”、“第三”等是用于区别不同对象,而不是用于描述特定顺序或主次关系。
在本申请中提及“实施例”意味着,结合实施例描述的特定特征、结构或特性可以包含在本申请的至少一个实施例中。在说明书中的各个位置出现该短语并不一定均是指相同的实施例,也不是与其它实施例互斥的独立的或备选的实施例。本领域技术人员显式地和隐式地理解的是,本申请所描述的实施例可以与其它实施例相结合。
在新能源领域中,电池作为用电装置,例如电动车辆、船舶或航天器等的主要动力源,其重要性不言而喻。在本申请中,电池是指包括一个或多个电池单体(battery cell)以提供更高的电压和容量的单一的物理模块。该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。可选地,本申请中所提到的电池可以称之为电池包(battery pack)。
可选地,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。
电池技术的发展要同时考虑多方面的设计因素,例如,能量密度、循环寿命、放电容量、充放电倍率等性能参数,另外,还需要考虑电池的安全性。
对于电池来说,主要的安全危险来自于充电和放电过程,为了提高电池的安全性能,对电池单体一般会设置泄压机构。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。该预定阈值可以根据设计需求不同而进行调整。所述预定阈值可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。泄压机构可以采用诸如对压力敏感或温度敏感的元件或部件,即,当电池单体的内部压力或温度达到预定阈值时,泄压机构致动,从而形成可供内部压力或温度泄放的通道。泄压机构在致动后,电池单体内部的高温高压物质作为排放物会从泄压机构向外排出。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,从而避免潜在的更严重的事故发生。其中,该电池单体的排放物 包括但不限于:反应产生的高温高压气体、电解液、被溶解或分裂的正负极极片、隔离膜的碎片、火焰,等等。
但随着电池系统能量密度的提升,电池单体排放物的温度,速度及固体颗粒物的占比都显著提升,如果不对排放物的排放行为及路径做针对性设计,温度较高的排放物在排放至箱体外部遇到氧气时极易发生起火事件,造成较大的安全隐患。
鉴于此,本申请提供一种电池,包括:多个电池单体、箱体以及围挡机构,其中,多个电池单体中至少一个电池单体具有第一泄压机构。箱体用于容纳多个电池单体,且箱体具有第二泄压机构。围挡机构用于围合形成与至少一个电池单体的第一泄压机构对应的第一排气空间,且围挡机构设有与第一排气空间连通的开口,在第一泄压机构致动时,至少一个电池单体的排放物从第一泄压机构进入第一排气空间并经由开口排放至第二泄压机构,排放物在第一泄压机构与第二泄压机构之间的排放路径的最小长度大于第一泄压机构与第二泄压机构之间的最短距离。
通过该技术方案,电池中设置有围挡机构,该围挡机构围合的第一排气空间能够接收该至少一个电池单体经由第一泄压机构排放的排放物,且围挡机构设有与第一排气空间连通的开口,排放物经由该开口可排放至箱体的第二泄压机构。该排放物在第一泄压机构与第二泄压机构之间的排放路径的最小长度大于第一泄压机构与第二泄压机构之间的最短距离。因此,通过本申请实施例中围挡机构的设置,该围挡机构能够延长排放物在电池的箱体内部的排放路径,使得该排放路径的最小长度小于第一泄压机构至第二泄压机构之间的最短距离,从而在箱体的内部降低该排放物的温度,使得其通过第二泄压机构从电池的箱体排放至外部时温度较低,提升电池的安全性能。
本申请实施例描述的技术方案均适用于各种使用电池的装置,例如,电瓶车、电动工具、电动车辆、船舶和航天器等,例如,航天器包括飞机、火箭、航天飞机和宇宙飞船等。
应理解,本申请实施例描述的技术方案不仅仅局限适用于上述所描述的装置,还可以适用于所有使用电池的装置,但为描述简洁,下述实施例均以电动车辆为例进行说明。
例如,如图1所示,为本申请一个实施例的一种车辆1的结构示意图,车辆1可以为燃油汽车、燃气汽车或新能源汽车,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。车辆1的内部可以设置马达11,控制器12以及电池10,控制器12用来控制电池10为马达11的供电。例如,在车辆1的底部或车头或车尾可以设置电池10。电池10可以用于车辆1的供电,例如,电池10可以作为车辆1的操作电源,用于车辆1的电路系统,例如,用于车辆1的启动、导航和运行时的工作用电需求。在本申请的另一实施例中,电池10不仅仅可以作为车辆1的操作电源,还可以作为车辆1的驱动电源,替代或部分地替代燃油或天然气为车辆1提供驱动动力。
为了满足不同的使用电力需求,电池可以包括多个电池单体,其中,多个电池单体之间可以串联或并联或混联,混联是指串联和并联的混合。电池也可以称为电池包。可选地,多个电池单体可以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组成电池。也就是说,多个电池单体可以直接组成电池,也可以先 组成电池模块,电池模块再组成电池。
例如,如图2所示,为本申请一个实施例的一种电池10的结构示意图,电池10可以包括多个电池单体20。电池10还可以包括箱体110(或称罩体),箱体110的内部为中空结构,多个电池单体20容纳于箱体110内。如图2所示,箱体110可以包括两部分,这里分别称为第一部分111和第二部分112,第一部分111和第二部分112扣合在一起。第一部分111和第二部分112的形状可以根据多个电池单体20组合的形状而定,第一部分111和第二部分112可以均具有一个开口。例如,第一部分111和第二部分112均可以为中空长方体且各自只有一个面为开口面,第一部分111的开口和第二部分112的开口相对设置,并且第一部分111和第二部分112相互扣合形成具有封闭腔室的箱体110。多个电池单体20相互并联或串联或混联组合后置于第一部分111和第二部分112扣合后形成的箱体110内。
可选地,电池10还可以包括其他结构,在此不再一一赘述。例如,该电池10还可以包括汇流部件,汇流部件用于实现多个电池单体20之间的电连接,例如并联或串联或混联。具体地,汇流部件可通过连接电池单体20的电极端子实现电池单体20之间的电连接。进一步地,汇流部件可通过焊接固定于电池单体20的电极端子。多个电池单体20的电能可进一步通过导电机构穿过箱体而引出。可选地,导电机构也可属于汇流部件。
根据不同的电力需求,电池单体20的数量可以设置为任意数值。多个电池单体20可通过串联、并联或混联的方式连接以实现较大的容量或功率。由于每个电池10中包括的电池单体20的数量可能较多,为了便于安装,可以将电池单体20分组设置,每组电池单体20组成电池模块。电池模块中包括的电池单体20的数量不限,可以根据需求设置。
如图3所示,为本申请一个实施例的一种电池单体20的结构示意图,电池单体20包括一个或多个电极组件22、壳体211和盖板212。壳体211的壁以及盖板212均称为电池单体20的壁。壳体211根据一个或多个电极组件22组合后的形状而定,例如,壳体211可以为中空的长方体或正方体或圆柱体,且壳体211的其中一个面具有开口以便一个或多个电极组件22可以放置于壳体211内。盖板212覆盖开口并且与壳体211连接,以形成放置电极组件22的封闭的腔体。壳体211内填充有电解质,例如电解液。
该电池单体20还可以包括两个电极端子214,两个电极端子214可以设置在盖板212上。盖板212通常是平板形状,两个电极端子214固定在盖板212的平板面上,两个电极端子214分别为正电极端子214a和负电极端子214b。每个电极端子214各对应设置一个连接构件23,或者也可以称为集流构件23,其位于盖板212与电极组件22之间,用于将电极组件22和电极端子214实现电连接。
如图3所示,每个电极组件22具有极性相反的第一极耳221a和第二极耳222a。例如,当第一极耳221a为正极极耳时,第二极耳222a为负极极耳。一个或多个电极组件22的第一极耳221a通过一个连接构件23与一个电极端子连接,一个或多个电极组件22的第二极耳222a通过另一个连接构件23与另一个电极端子连接。
作为示例,电池单体20的一个壁上还可设置第一泄压机构213。第一泄压机构 213用于电池单体20的内部压力或温度达到阈值时致动以泄放内部压力或温度。
可选地,在本申请一个实施例中,第一泄压机构213和电极端子214设置于电池单体20的不同壁。作为示例,如图3所示,电池单体20的电极端子214可设置于电池单体20的顶壁,即盖板212。第一泄压机构213设置于电池单体20中不同于顶壁的另一个壁,例如,第一泄压机构213设置于与顶壁相对的底壁215。
可选地,在本申请另一个实施例中,第一泄压机构213和电极端子214设置于电池单体20的同一壁。作为示例,电极端子214和第一泄压机构213均可设置于电池单体20的顶壁,即盖板212。
上述第一泄压机构213可以为其所在壁的一部分,也可以与其所在壁为分体式结构,通过例如焊接的方式固定在其所在壁上。例如,在图3所示实施例中,当第一泄压机构213为底壁215的一部分时,第一泄压机构213可以通过在底壁215上设置刻痕的方式形成,与该刻痕的对应的底壁215厚度小于第一泄压机构213除刻痕处其他区域的厚度。另外,第一泄压机构213可以为各种可能的泄压机构,本申请实施例对此并不限定。例如,第一泄压机构213可以为温敏泄压机构,温敏泄压机构被配置为在设有第一泄压机构213的电池单体20的内部温度达到阈值时能够熔化;和/或,第一泄压机构213可以为压敏泄压机构,压敏泄压机构被配置为在设有第一泄压机构213的电池单体20的内部气压达到阈值时能够破裂。
图4示出了本申请一个实施例提供的一种电池10的一种结构示意图。可选地,该图4可以为电池10的俯视图、仰视图或者侧视图。
如图4所示,该电池10包括:多个电池单体20、箱体110以及围挡机构30。其中,多个电池单体20中的至少一个电池单体20具有第一泄压机构213,箱体110用于容纳多个电池单体20,且箱体110具有第二泄压机构113,围挡机构30用于围合至少一个电池单体20的第一泄压机构213对应的第一排气空间310,且围挡机构30设有与第一排气空间310连通的开口301。在第一泄压机构213致动时,至少一个电池单体20的排放物从第一泄压机构213进入第一排气空间310并经由开口301排放至第二泄压机构113,该排放物在第一泄压机构213与第二泄压机构113之间的排放路径的最小长度B大于第一泄压机构213与第二泄压机构113之间的最短距离A。
具体地,在本申请实施例的电池10中,电池单体20中的第一泄压机构213可以如图3中所示,与电池单体20的电极端子214位于电池单体20的同一壁。或者,该第一泄压机构213也可以与电极端子214位于电池单体20的不同壁。具体地,该电池单体20以及第一泄压机构213的相关技术方案可以参见上文图3所示实施例的相关描述,此处不做过多赘述。
箱体110用于容纳电池10中的多个电池单体20,该箱体110的具体形状可以适应于多个电池单体20的整体形状。可选地,该箱体110可以为上文图2所示实施例中包括第一部分111和第二部分112的长方体中空箱体,用于容纳至少一个长方体形状或其它形状的电池单体20。该箱体110的相关技术方案可以参见上文图2所示实施例的相关描述,此处也不做过多赘述。
箱体110的箱壁上可设置有第二泄压机构113,该第二泄压机构113可以连通 于箱体110的内部空间。在第一泄压机构213致动时,电池单体20的排放物从该第一泄压机构213进入箱体110的内部空间。因此,第二泄压机构113可用于将该排放物排放至箱体110的外部,保证电池10的安全性能。
可选地,该第二泄压机构113可以为温敏泄压机构或者压敏泄压结构,旨在使得箱体110的内部温度和/或压力大于预设阈值时,该第二泄压机构113致动,箱体110的内部气体可以通过该第二泄压机构113排放至箱体110的外部。本申请实施例对该第二泄压机构113的具体实现方式不做限定。
继续参见图4所示,在本申请实施例中,围挡机构30设置于箱体110的内部空间,且该围挡机构30可围合形成与至少一个电池单体20的第一泄压机构213对应的第一排气空间310,且该围挡机构30设有与第一排气空间310连通的开口301。该第一排气空间310可以包括至少一个电池单体20的第一泄压机构213的朝向空间。该围挡机构30设置有开口301,因此,围挡机构30并非实现全封闭式的围合,而是在开口301处为第一排气空间310提供了排气出口。
可选地,围挡机构30可以为具有开口301的框型结构。作为示例,如图4所示,该围挡机构30可以为矩形框型结构,或者,在其它替代实施方式中,该围挡机构30也可以为其它形状的框型结构,例如圆形框型结构、多边形框型结构等等,本申请实施例对该框型结构的具体形状不做限定。
在电池10中至少一个电池单体20的第一泄压机构213致动时,该至少一个电池单体20的排放物经由第一泄压机构213排放进入围挡机构30形成的第一排气空间310,该排放物进一步的通过连通于第一排气空间310的开口301排放至第二泄压机构113。由于该围挡机构30的设置,排放物无法直接由第一泄压机构213排放至第二泄压机构113,而是被围挡机构30引导至其开口301进而由开口301排放至第二泄压机构113,该排放物在第一泄压机构213与第二泄压机构113之间的排放路径的最小长度B大于第一泄压机构213与第二泄压机构213之间的最短距离A。
可选地,如图4所示的短虚线线段,第一泄压机构213至第二泄压机构113之间的最短距离A可以为第一泄压机构213的中心至第二泄压机构113的中心的连线距离。
可选地,排放物在第一泄压机构213与第二泄压机构113之间的排放路径可以为多个,该多个排放路径中的最小长度B可以根据电池10中围挡机构30、箱体110等部件的尺寸,以及第一泄压机构213和第二泄压机构113的相对位置确定计算得到。
作为示例,图4中的长虚线箭头示意出了排放物经由第一泄压机构213、开口301排放至第二泄压机构113的两种排放路径示意图。其中,排放物从开口301排出后,向右排放的排放路径为第一排放路径,排放物从开口301排出后,向左排放的排放路径为第二排放路径。第一排放路径的长度B小于第二排放路径的长度B’。该第一排放路径的长度B可以为排放物在第一泄压机构213与第二泄压机构113之间的排放路径的最小长度B。该排放路径的最小长度B大于第一泄压机构213至第二泄压机构113之间的最短距离A。
综上,通过本申请实施例的技术方案,围挡机构30的设置能够延长排放物在 电池10的箱体110内部的排放路径,使得该排放路径的最小长度B大于第一泄压机构213至第二泄压机构113之间的最短距离A,从而在箱体110的内部降低该排放物的温度,使得其通过第二泄压机构113从电池10的箱体110排放至外部时温度较低,提升电池10的安全性能。
在一些实施方式中,上述围挡机构30中的开口301可位于围挡机构30中远离于第二泄压机构113的位置。
可以理解的是,该围挡机构30可以在封闭的框型结构上设置开口301形成。该封闭的框型结构可以由多个沿围合方向排列的围挡部拼接组成,该多个围挡部形状和大小相同。每个围挡部与第二泄压机构113具有一定的距离,多个围挡部与第二泄压机构113的多个距离的平均数为a,在该多个围挡部中,若某个围挡部与第二泄压机构113距离大于a,则该围挡部的位置可以理解为围挡机构30中远离于第二泄压机构113的位置,则可在该围挡部的位置设置开口301。
通过本申请实施例的技术方案,将开口301设置于围挡机构30中远离于第二泄压机构113的位置,可以使得开口301与第二泄压机构113之间的距离较远,从而进一步延长电池单体20的排放物在电池10的箱体110内部的排放路径,进一步降低排放物到达第二泄压机构113时的温度,提升电池10的安全性能。
在一些实施方式中,上述围挡机构30中的开口301可朝向箱体110中除第二泄压机构113所在箱壁以外的其它箱壁。
作为一种示例,如图4所示,箱体110中一个箱壁设置有一个第二泄压机构113,围挡机构30中的开口301可朝向与箱体110中与该第二泄压机构113所在箱壁相邻的箱壁。或者,在其它示例中,该开口301还可以朝向与箱体110中与该第二泄压机构113所在箱壁相对的箱壁。在该示例的技术方案中,开口301的朝向远离乃至背离于第二泄压机构113,因此,该技术方案可以增大开口301与第二泄压机构113之间的距离,从而进一步延长电池单体20的排放物在电池10的箱体110内部的排放路径。
在其它示例中,箱体110可设置有多个第二泄压机构113,例如,箱体110可在相对的两个箱壁分别设置第二泄压机构113,则围挡机构30的开口301可朝向箱体110中除该相对的两个箱壁以外的其它箱壁。
作为一种示意,图4中所示的开口301的数量仅为1个,在其它替代的实施方式中,该开口301的数量还可以为多个,该多个开口301均朝向箱体110中除第二泄压机构113所在箱壁以外的其它箱壁。
通过本申请实施例的技术方案,围挡机构30的开口301可根据箱体110的第二泄压机构113的设置进行相应设计,从而保证该开口301不朝向第二泄压机构113所在的箱壁,增大开口301与第二泄压机构113之间的距离,从而进一步延长电池单体20的排放物在电池10的箱体110内部的排放路径,以进一步降低排放物到达第二泄压机构113时的温度,提升电池10的安全性能。
在上文图4所示实施例中,电池10可仅包括一个围挡机构30,从而便于该围挡机构30在箱体110内的安装,在一些其它实施方式中,电池10还可以包括多个围挡机构30,该多个围挡机构30间隔设置。
在该情况下,图5示出了本申请一个实施例提供的电池10的另一结构示意图。与上文图4类似,可选地,该图5可以为电池10的俯视图、仰视图或者侧视图。
作为示例,如图5所示,电池10中的多个电池单体20可以包括4组电池单体20。对应于该4组电池单体20,电池10可包括4个围挡机构30,每个围挡机构30用于形成与一组电池单体20的第一泄压机构213对应的第一排气空间310。
另外,在该电池10中,第二泄压机构113设置于箱体110中相对的两个箱壁,此时,每个围挡机构30的开口301可朝向箱体110中除该第二泄压机构113所在两个箱壁以外的其它箱壁。
可选地,如图5所示,该4个围挡机构30的开口301在该4个围挡机构30中的相对位置相同,该4个开口301的朝向也可相同。或者,在其它替代实施例中,该4个围挡机构30的开口301在该4个围挡机构30中的相对位置也可以不相同,且该4个开口301中部分开口301的朝向也可以不相同。
通过本申请实施例的技术方案,多个围挡机构30设置于电池10的箱体110内,该多个围挡机构30可以根据实际需求灵活设置和调整,从而便于对箱体100中不同位置处的电池单体20的排放物起到更好的导向作用,以进一步提升电池10整体的安全性能。
在一些实施方式中,上述围挡机构30的开口301可位于箱体110的中部区域。
作为一种示例,图6示出了本申请一个实施例提供的电池10的另一结构示意图。
在图6所示实施例中,电池10中多个电池单体20可以包括2组电池单体20。对应于该2组电池单体20,电池10可包括2个围挡机构30。可选地,在该电池10中,第二泄压机构113设置于箱体110中相对的两个壁,此时,每个围挡机构30的开口301可位于箱体110的中部区域。
可选地,第二泄压机构113所在的两个壁可以为箱体110在x方向上相对排列的两个壁。在箱体110为长方形箱体的情况下,该x方向可以为箱体110的长度方向、宽度方向或者高度方向。此时,每个围挡机构30的开口301可位于箱体110在x方向上的中部区域。
通过上述实施例的技术方案,围挡机构30的开口301位于箱体110的中部区域,也可以增大开口301与位于箱体110的箱壁的第二泄压机构113之间的距离,从而延长电池单体20的排放物在电池10的箱体110内部的排放路径,进一步降低排放物到达第二泄压机构113时的温度,提升电池10的安全性能。
图7示出了本申请一个实施例提供的电池10的另一结构示意图。
如图7所示,多个围挡机构30中相邻的两个围挡机构30的开口设置于相邻的两个围挡机构30中相邻的两个壁上,相邻的两个围挡机构30的开口301相互错开设置。
作为示例,在图7所示的相邻的两个围挡机构30中,其中一个围挡机构30设置有一个开口301,另一个围挡机构30设置有两个开口301,该三个开口301相互错开设置,以避免两个围挡机构30围合的两个第一排气空间310之间形成直接对流。
在本申请实施例中,相邻两个围挡机构30的开口301并非正对设置,而是相互错开设置,即从第一个围挡机构30的开口301中排出的排放物不会通过第二个围挡机构30的开口301直接进入第二个围挡机构30形成的第一排气空间310中,防止高温排放物造成更大范围影响和损坏,也防止第一排气空间310的压强过高,保证电池10的安全性能。
需要说明的是,在上文图4至图7所示实施例中,围挡机构30的数量以及每个围挡机构30中围合的电池单体20的数量仅作为示意而非限定,围挡机构30的数量以及围合方式可以根据电池10中电池单体20的数量以及排列方式决定,本申请实施例对此不做具体限定。
图8示出了本申请一个实施例提供的电池10的一种爆炸结构示意图。
如图8所示,至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201设置有第一泄压机构213,该至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201与箱体110的第一箱壁101相对设置,围挡机构30设置于第一箱壁101与至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201之间。
在该实施例中,至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201可位于同一平面。通过该设置,可以便于围挡机构30在第一箱壁101与至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201之间的设置和安装,也便于围挡机构围合至少一个电池单体20的第一泄压机构213对应的空间以形成第一排气空间310。
可选地,如图8所示,围挡机构30附接于该箱体110的第一箱壁101和该至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201,第二泄压机构113设置于箱体110中除第一箱壁101以外的其它壁。
作为示例,在图8所示的箱体110可以为长方体空心箱体,其具有6个平面的箱壁,其中,该箱体110的第一箱壁101与电池单体20的第一壁201相对设置,且该箱体110的第一箱壁101与电池单体20的第一壁201相互平行。围挡机构30可直接附接于第一箱壁101与电池单体20的第一壁201之间,或者,围挡机构30也可间接附接(例如通过胶层或者固定件)附接于第一箱壁101与电池单体20的第一壁201之间。第一箱壁101未设置有第二泄压机构113,该第二泄压机构113可设置于除该第一箱壁101以外的其它任意箱壁。
围挡机构30在第一箱壁101与电池单体20的第一壁201之间围合形成的第一排气空间310在垂直于电池单体20的第一壁201的第一方向上为密封空间,而在平行于电池单体20的第一壁201的第二方向上为具有开口的空间。由于第二泄压机构113设置于除第一箱壁101以外的其它箱壁,因此,电池单体20经由第一泄压机构213排放的排放物无法在第一方向上通过第一箱壁101排出,而沿第二方向移动,通过第一排气空间310在第二方向上的开口以及位于其它箱壁的第二泄压机构113排出。
通过本申请实施例的技术方案,不仅可以便于围挡机构30在箱体110中的稳定安装,也可以便于围挡机构30对该至少一个电池单体20的排放物进行方向引导,增长排放物在箱体110内部的排放路径,提升电池10的安全性能。
可选地,在一些实施方式中,如图8所示,箱体110的第二箱壁102相交于箱体110的第一箱壁101,第二泄压机构113设置于该第二箱壁102。围挡机构30与第二 箱壁102之间形成第二排气空间320,该第二排气空间320通过开口301连接于第一排气空间310,至少一个电池单体20的排放物经由开口301进入第二排气空间320并排放至第二泄压机构113。
具体地,在该实施方式的技术方案中,箱体110中可具有4个第二箱壁102相交于箱体110的第一箱壁101,例如,在箱体110的第一箱壁101为箱体110的顶壁或底壁的情况下,该4个第二箱壁102可以为箱体110的侧壁。第二泄压机构113的数量可以为一个或多个,该一个或多个第二泄压机构113可设置于4个第二箱壁102中的任意一个或多个第二箱壁102。
在围挡机构30在第一箱壁101与电池单体20的第一壁201之间围合形成第一排气空间310的基础上,该围挡机构30可以与第二箱壁102之间形成第二排气空间320。该第二排气空间320用于连通第一排气空间310与位于第二箱壁102上的第二泄压机构113。
在该实施方式的技术方案中,通过围挡机构30在箱体110内部分隔出第一排气空间310和第二排气空间320,第二排气空间320连通于箱体110的第二箱壁102,因而可以便于第二泄压机构113在箱体110的第二箱壁102上的位置设计,有利于进一步延长排放物在箱体110内部的排放路径,保障电池10的安全性能。
对应于上述图8所示实施例的爆炸图,图9示出了图8中电池10的一种示意性俯视图。
结合图8和图9所示,在一些实施方式中,至少一个电池单体20排列形成电池单体序列,该电池单体序列中每个电池单体20的第一壁201设置有两个电极端子214,第一泄压机构213设置于两个电极端子214之间。围挡机构30设置于电池单体序列中每个电池单体的两个电极端子214之间。
作为示例,在图8和图9所示实施例中,多个电池单体20沿电池单体20的宽度方向排列为一排,该一排电池单体20可理解为一个电池单体序列。或者,在其它示例中,多个电池单体20还可以按照其它排列方式形成一个电池单体序列,本申请实施例对该电池单体序列中电池单体20的具体排列方式不做限定。
该电池单体序列中每个电池单体20的第一壁201设置有第一泄压机构213以及两个电极端子214。围挡机构30靠近于该电池单体序列中每个电池单体20的第一泄压机构213设置,且围合于该第一泄压机构213对应的空间,进一步地,该围挡机构30可设置于该电池单体序列中每个电池单体20的两个电极端子214之间。
通过该实施方式的技术方案,一方面,该围挡机构30距离第一泄压机构213的距离较近,因此该围挡机构30能够对从第一泄压机构213中排放的排放物起到良好的阻挡和导向作用,另一方面,该围挡机构30能够防止从第一泄压机构213排放的排放物对电极端子214或者电池单体20的其它部件造成影响,进一步保证电池10的安全性能。
可选地,在电池单体20的电极端子214与第一泄压机构213位于同一壁时,作为一种其它替代实施例,围挡机构30也可同时围合于电池单体20的两个电极端子214以及第一泄压机构213对应的空间,通过该实施例的技术方案,围挡机构30也能实现 对经由第一泄压机构213排放的排放物的阻挡和导向作用,延长该排放物在箱体110的内部的排放路径。
上文图8和图9示出了本申请一实施例包括一个围挡机构30的示意性结构图,下面图10和图11示出本申请另一实施例包括多个围挡机构30的示意性结构图。其中,图10为本申请一个实施例提供的电池10的另一示意性爆炸图,图11为图10中电池10的俯视图。
结合图10和图11所示,在本申请实施例中,电池10可包括多组电池单体20,每组电池单体20可以如图8和图9所示,包括由至少一个电池单体20排列形成的电池单体序列。每组电池单体20的第一泄压机构213对应的空间围合有一个围挡机构30。
该多个围挡机构30中每个围挡机构30可直接附接于箱体110的第一箱壁101和一组电池单体20的第一壁201。具体地,该围挡机构30与一组电池单体20之间的相关技术方案可以参见上文图8和图9所示实施例的相关描述,此处不做过多赘述。
可选地,在一些实施方式中,电池10的箱体110中可设置有横梁114,该横梁114可将箱体110的内部空间划分为多个子空间,每个子空间用于容纳一组电池单体20。作为示例,如图10和图11所示,箱体110中设置有相交的两个横梁114,该两个横梁114将箱体110的内部空间划分为四个子空间。
可选地,为了便于每个子空间中电池单体20的排放物排出,每个子空间对应的箱壁可设置有一个第二泄压机构113。例如,对于图10所示实施例,在箱体110中相对的两个第二箱壁102中,每个第二箱壁102可设置有2个第二泄压机构113,即在该箱体110的箱壁中共设置有4个第二泄压机构113。
可选地,如图10和图11所示,多个围挡机构30的开口301可位于箱体110的中部区域设置。或者,在其它实施方式中,多个围挡机构30的开口301可朝向箱体110中除第二泄压机构113所在箱壁以外的其它箱壁。
除了上文图8至图11所示的围挡机构30附接于箱体110的第一箱壁101和至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201的技术方案以外,在其它实施例中,箱体110的第一箱壁101和至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201之间可设置有其它部件,围挡机构30可附接于该部件与至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201之间。
图12示出了本申请一个实施例提供的电池10的另一爆炸示意图。
如图12所示,在本申请实施例中,箱体110的第一箱壁101与至少一个电池单体20的第一壁201(图中未示出)之间设置有隔离部件40,该隔离部件40用于在箱体110的内部形成相互隔离的电气腔和排气腔,其中,电气腔用于容纳至少一个电池单体20(图中未示出),围挡机构30设置于排气腔中,且该围挡机构30附接于箱体110的第一箱壁101和隔离部件40,围挡机构30用于在排气腔中围合形成与至少一个电池单体20的第一泄压机构213(图中未示出)对应的第一排气空间310。
具体地,在该实施例的技术方案中,采用隔离部件40将箱体110的内部空间隔离为电气腔和排气腔。也就是说,在箱体110内部,容纳至少一个电池单体20的电气腔与收集并排放至少一个电池单体20的排放物的排气腔分离。这样,当电池单体20发生异常时,电池单体20的排放物先进入排气腔,该排放物不会直接影响电气腔中的电 气部件,因此能够进一步增强电池的安全性。
可选地,在一些实施方式中,隔离部件40可以具有为电气腔和排气腔共用的壁。例如,隔离部件40可以同时为电气腔的一个壁以及排气腔的一个壁。这样,电池单体20的排放物可以直接经过隔离部件40进入排气腔,避免在箱体110中引入其他结构部件,影响电池10的能量密度等性能参数。
进一步地,围挡机构30设置于排气腔中,且附接于箱体110的第一箱壁101与隔离部件40,该围挡机构30在该第一箱壁101与隔离部件40之间形成第一排气空间310以接收并引导排放物在箱体110内的排放。
通过本申请实施例的技术方案,箱体110被隔离部件40分隔为相互隔离的电气腔和排气腔,因此,电气腔中电池单体20的排放物会先经由隔离部件40排放至排气腔,而不会直接对电气腔中的电池单体20的电气结构造成影响,从而进一步提高电池10的安全性能。进一步地,围挡机构30设置于排气腔中,用于对排放物进行导向,以使得其仅能通过围挡机构30中的开口301排放,延长该排放物在箱体110内部的排放路径,以更进一步提高电池10的安全性能。
可选地,第二泄压机构113可以设置于箱体110的任意一个箱壁。针对于第二泄压机构113的具体位置,可以在箱体110内部设计连通于该第二泄压机构113与第一排气空间310的排气通道。
例如,第二泄压机构113可设置于箱体110中电气腔对应的箱壁,在该情况下,隔离部件40中可以设计连通于电气腔与第一排气空间310的通道,延长排放物在箱体110内部的排放路径。
或者,第二泄压机构113也可设置于箱体110中排气腔对应的箱壁,便于排放物可以由排气腔排出,该排放物不会对电气腔中的电气结构造成影响。
可选地,第二泄压机构113可设置于箱体110中除第一箱壁101以外的其它箱壁。
具体地,在本申请实施例中,第一箱壁101和隔离部件40可用于形成排气腔中相对设置的两个壁,电池单体20的排放物经过隔离部件40后,其中的大部分会直冲第一箱壁101。因此,第二泄压机构113未设置于该第一箱壁101而设置于其它箱壁,可以延长该排放物在箱体110内部的排放路径,从而提升电池10的安全性。
可选地,在一些实施方式中,当电池10安装于用电装置后,该电池10的第一箱壁101可以为箱体110的底壁,且至少一个电池单体20中设置有第一泄压机构213的第一壁201也可称为该至少一个电池单体20的底壁。该隔离部件40可以将箱体110的内部空间分隔为两个空间,其中,电气腔位于排气腔的下方。或者,在一些其它的替代实施方式中,电气腔也可以位于排气腔的上方或者其它方向,本申请实施例对该电气腔和排气腔的相对位置关系不做具体限定。
可选地,继续参见图12所示,在一些实施方式中,隔离部件40中形成有对应于至少一个电池单体20的第一泄压机构213的泄压区域410,该至少一个电池单体20的排放物经由该泄压区域410排放至排气腔,围挡机构30用于在排气腔中围合形成与泄压区域410对应的第一排气空间310。
可选地,隔离部件40中设置有至少一个泄压区域410,每个泄压区域可与一个电池单体20的第一泄压机构213相对设置,当第一泄压机构213致动时,该电池单体20内部的排放物经由该泄压区域410排放。
在一些实施方式中,隔离部件40中的泄压区域410也可以经过特殊处理,使其能够在第一泄压机构213致动时更容易被破坏。作为一种示例,该泄压区域410可以为薄弱区,其强度小于隔离部件40中除该泄压区域410以外其他区域处的强度。
可选地,隔离部件40设置有与第一泄压机构213相对设置的凹槽,凹槽的底壁形成薄弱区。由于凹槽的底壁较隔离部件40的其他区域薄弱,容易被排放物破坏,第一泄压机构213致动时,排放物可以破坏凹槽的底壁而进入排气腔。
可选地,还可以通过其它方式在隔离部件40中形成薄弱区作为泄压区域410,例如,在隔离部件40中设置刻痕以形成薄弱区等等,本申请对此不做具体限定。
围挡机构30用于围合隔离部件40中泄压区域410对应的空间,从而能够接收经由第一泄压机构213以及泄压区域410排放的排放物,以对该排放物进行路径导向。
通过该实施方式的技术方案,在隔离部件40中设置泄压区域410,能够更为有效的使得从第一泄压机构213排放的排放物通过,防止排放物对电气腔中的电气部件造成影响。围挡机构30围合于该泄压区域410对应的空间,能够间接围合电池单体20的第一泄压机构213对应的空间,从而对排放物进行有效的导向,综合保障电池10的安全性能。
可选地,在上述申请实施例中,隔离部件40可以为热管理部件,该热管理部件用于调节电池单体20的温度。可选地,该热管理部件可用于容纳流体以给多个电池单体调节温度。这里的流体可以是液体或气体,调节温度是指给多个电池单体加热或者冷却。在给电池单体冷却或降温的情况下,该热管理部件用于容纳冷却流体以给多个电池单体降低温度,此时,热管理部件也可以称为冷却部件、冷却系统或冷却板等,其容纳的流体也可以称为冷却介质或冷却流体,更具体的,可以称为冷却液或冷却气体。另外,热管理部件也可以用于加热以给多个电池单体升温,本申请实施例对此并不限定。可选的,上述流体可以是循环流动的,以达到更好的温度调节的效果。可选的,流体可以为水、水和乙二醇的混合液或者空气等。
通过该实施方式的技术方案,复用热管理部件作为隔离部件40,既能在箱体110中分隔出相互隔离的电气腔和排气腔,以保证电池10的安全性,另外,由于热管理部件的存在,可以对电池单体20进行进一步的热管理作用,以进一步提升电池10的安全性能。
图13示出了图12中电池10的一种示意性仰视图。
如图13所示,该电池10可包括多个围挡机构30,每个围挡机构30用于围合一组泄压区域410对应的空间,该一组泄压区域410对应于一组电池单体20的第一泄压机构213。
作为示例,图13示出了相邻的两个围挡机构30,该两个围挡机构30的开口301可位于排气腔的中部区域。或者,在替代实施方式中,该两个围挡机构30的开口301还可以按照其它方式进行设计。
例如,图14示出了本申请一个实施例提供的围挡机构30围合泄压区域410的两种示意性结构图。
如图14中的(a)图所示,在该实施例中,两个围挡机构30的设置方式与图13类似,但开口301相较于图13中所示的开口301较小,通过该实施例的技术方案,围挡机构30对于排放物能够起到更好的导向作用,从而进一步延长排放物在排气腔中的排放路径。
如图14中的(b)图所示,在该实施例中,两个围挡机构30中的一个围挡机构30可设置有两个开口301,另一个围挡机构30形成有一个开口301。该三个开口301相互错开设置,以避免两个围挡机构30对应的两个第一排气空间310之间形成直接对流,防止高温排放物造成更大范围影响和损坏,也防止第一排气空间310的压强过高,保证电池10的安全性能。
需要说明的是,图13和图14仅作为示意说明了相邻的两个围挡机构30对于泄压区域410的围合方式,在其它替代实施方式中,围挡机构30的数量也可以为1个或者3个以上,围挡机构30中开口301的设置方式可以与第二泄压机构113相关,其具体设计方案可以参见上文实施例的相关描述,此处不做过多赘述。
在上文实施例的围挡机构30的基础上,可选地,该围挡机构30中还形成有第一过滤孔302,该第一过滤孔302用于过滤排放物中的固体颗粒。可选地,该第一过滤孔302的孔径小于开口301的径向尺寸。
作为示例,图15示出了本申请一个实施例提供的电池10的另两种示意性结构图。可选地,图15中的(a)图可以为图10所示实施例的俯视图,图15中的(b)图可以为图12所示实施例的仰视图。
如图15所示,围挡机构30具有较大尺寸的开口301以外,还形成有多个较小尺寸的第一过滤孔302,该多个第一过滤孔302可以等间距或非等间距的分布于该围挡机构30。可选地,该第一过滤孔302的位置设计以及位置设计可以与上文开口301的相关设计相同,例如,该第一过滤孔302也可以设置于围挡机构30中远离于第二泄压机构113的位置,和/或,该第一过滤孔302也可以朝向箱体110中除第二泄压机构113所在箱壁以外的其它箱壁。
与开口301的作用类似,第一过滤孔302也可以用于排放电池单体20经由第一泄压机构213排放的排放物,但该第一过滤孔302的主要用于通过排放物中的气体,而排放物中粒径较大的固体颗粒可以被该第一过滤孔302过滤,该固体颗粒无法通过第一过滤孔302排放至第一排气空间310之外,因此,通过该技术方案可以减少排放至第二泄压机构113处的高温固体颗粒,进一步提升电池10的安全性。
再者,在围挡机构30中设置第一过滤孔302,可以加快第一排气空间310的排气速度以及泄压速度,防止第一排气空间310的压强过高。与此同时,在第一过滤孔302的数量为多个的情况下,多个第一过滤孔302排出的气流可以相互碰撞产生一定的扰流作用,从而减小气体直冲产生的危害。
可选地,在一些实施方式中,围挡机构30可以为间断式结构,该围挡机构30由多个围挡部形成,多个围挡部中相邻的两个围挡部之间的间隙形成上述第一过滤孔 302。
通过该实施方式的技术方案,在形成第一过滤孔302的基础上,围挡机构30的间断式设计提升了加工便捷度,围挡机构30无需一体成型,可以分别制造多个围挡子结构以形成围挡机构30。
可选地,在上述申请实施例中,排放物在第一泄压机构213与第二泄压机构113之间的排放路径内设置有过滤部件、气体吸收部件和冷却部件中的至少一者。
具体地,该过滤部件可用于过滤排放物中的固体颗粒。气体吸收部件可用于吸收排放物中的可燃性气体。冷却部件可用于吸收排放物的热量以对排放物进行降温。
通过在排放路径内设置过滤部件、气体吸收部件和冷却部件中的至少一者,可以进一步降低排放至箱体110外部的排放物的危害,提升电池10的安全性能。
可选地,上述过滤部件可包括第二过滤孔或者弯折的气流通道,该第二过滤孔或者该弯折的气流通道用于过滤排放物中的固体颗粒。
具体地,该第二过滤孔的相关设计可以与上述第一过滤孔302的设计相同,该第二过滤孔的孔径可小于排放物中固体颗粒的粒径,从而对该固体颗粒起到过滤作用。排放物在经过弯折的气流通道时,排放物中的固体颗粒也较为容易的残留于气流通道内,从而起到过滤作用。另外,该气流通道还可以起到扰流作用,防止排放物中的气流直冲对箱体110造成损害。
可选地,上述气体吸收部件由气体吸收材料形成,该气体吸收材料用于吸收排放物中的可燃性气体。
可选地,该气体吸收材料可以为固体材料或者为液体材料。例如,该气体吸收材料可以为具有微孔结构的材料,例如,活性炭等。又例如,该气体吸收材料可以为能够吸收可燃性气体的溶剂,可在该溶剂的外部包覆外壳形成溶剂封装体,该溶剂封装体作为气体吸收部件设置于第一泄压机构213与第二泄压机构113之间的排放路径。
在一些实施方式,气体吸收部件可以与上述过滤部件为两个分离的独立部件。或者,在另一些实施方式,气体吸收部件也可以与上述过滤部件相互连接。例如,气体吸收部件可以以涂层的形式涂覆于过滤部件。
可选地,上述冷却部件由吸热材料形成,该吸热材料用于吸收排放物的热量以冷却排放物。作为示例而非限定,该吸热材料可以为金属材料,例如铝、铜、钢等。或者,该吸热材料也可以为相变材料,例如冷却液等。
在一些实施方式,冷却部件可以与上述过滤部件为两个分离的独立部件。或者,在另一些实施方式,冷却部件也可以与上述过滤部件集成为一体。例如,在吸热材料上形成第二过滤孔或者弯折的气流通道,该部件既为冷却部件也为过滤部件。
可选地,在上述申请实施例中,排放物在第一泄压机构213处的最高温度T1和该排放物在第二泄压机构113处的最高温度T2满足如下关系:T1-T2≥300℃。
通过该实施方式的技术方案,电池单体20经由第一泄压机构213排放的排放物在箱体110的内部经过较长的排放路径后,其到达第二泄压机构113处的最高温度相比于在第一泄压机构213处的温度实现了较大程度的较低,从而防止排放物排放至电池10的外部造成安全隐患。
可选地,在上述申请实施例中,排放物在第二泄压机构113处的最高温度T2≤300℃。
通过该实施方式的技术方案,电池单体20经由第一泄压机构213排放的排放物在箱体110的内部经过较长的排放路径后,其到达第二泄压机构113处的最高温度较低,从而可更为可靠的防止排放物排放至电池10的外部造成安全隐患,保证电池10的安全性能。
