- the explosion-proof valve 114 is opened, the notch 1141 is broken, so that the reversible portion 1142 is flipped along the notch to open the first through hole 1113.
- the axis around which the flippable portion 1142 flips is the extension line of its connection side.
- the connection side of the flippable portion 1142 and the fixed portion 1143 continue to remain connected. Therefore, the flippable portion 1142 will not fall off the explosion-proof valve 114 after the explosion-proof valve 114 is opened.
- FIG5 is a schematic diagram of the planar structure of several possible explosion-proof valves 114 provided in the embodiment of the present application.
- the shape of the explosion-proof valve 114 can be a circle, a runway, a semicircle, a rectangle, etc. as shown in FIG5, or can also be some other regular or irregular shapes, and the present application does not make specific restrictions on this.
- the material of the explosion-proof valve 114 can be selected from metals with a certain degree of deformation ability, such as aluminum, copper, etc.
- the shape of the reversible portion 1142 can be designed according to the shape of the explosion-proof valve 114.
- the shape of the reversible portion 1142 can also be approximately circular, track-shaped, semicircular, rectangular, etc., which is conducive to increasing the extension length of the notch 1141, that is, increasing the area of the reversible portion 1142, so that the battery can be quickly depressurized after the reversible portion 1142 is flipped.
- the reversible portion 1142 can also be designed as some other regular or irregular open annular shapes, and the present application does not limit this.
- the extension length of the notch 1141 can be greater than or equal to 0.6C, and less than or equal to 0.8C, such as the extension length of the notch 1141 can be 0.6C, 0.7C or 0.8C, and so on.
- FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of the battery cover 110 provided in the embodiment of the present application
- FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of the battery cover 110 shown in FIG. 6 after the explosion-proof valve 114 is opened.
- the projection of the outer contour of the first insulating member 1125 on the surface of the cover body 111 can cover the first through hole 1113, or it can be understood that the projection area of the line constituting the outer edge of the first insulating member 1125 on the surface of the cover body 111 covers the first through hole 1113.
- the first side wall 11253 of the first insulating member 1125 can be provided with a groove 11254, which penetrates the first insulating member 1125 along the thickness direction of the first insulating member 1125, and the groove 11254 can be connected with the first through hole 1113, so as to expose the explosion-proof valve 114.
- the first conductive sheet 1122 may partially or completely cover the slot 11254.
- the reversible portion 1142 of the explosion-proof valve 114 is reversed toward the first side of the cover body 111 under the action of pressure, so that the reversible portion 1142 extends into the slot 11254 and contacts the first conductive sheet 1122 located above the first insulating member 1125.
- an exhaust port having the same shape as the reversible portion 1142 is formed on the explosion-proof valve 114.
- the gas inside the battery can be discharged to the outside of the battery through the first through hole 1113, the exhaust port of the explosion-proof valve 114, and the slot 11254 in sequence, thereby achieving the purpose of pressure relief and reducing more serious safety issues such as further explosion of the battery. It is easy to understand that when the first conductive sheet 1122 does not completely cover the slot 11254, part of the gas can also be discharged through the uncovered area of the slot 11254, thereby helping to increase the exhaust rate and reduce the time used for pressure relief.
- the first through hole 1113 may be a tapered hole, and the diameter of the first through hole 1113 gradually decreases along the direction from the first side of the cover body 111 to the second side thereof.
- One side surface of the cell interior is inclined relative to the surface of the cover body 111.
- a guide channel can be formed between the inner wall of the first through hole 1113 and the side surface of the flip portion 1142 facing the interior of the battery. The guide channel can be used to guide the gas during the exhaust process, which can effectively increase the exhaust rate.
- connection side of the flippable portion 1142 may be arranged away from the first side wall 11253 of the first insulating member 1125.
- the end of the guide channel formed by the flippable portion 1142 and the first through hole 1113 faces the first side wall 11253. This arrangement can shorten the gas exhaust path, thereby helping to further increase the gas exhaust rate.
- the flippable portion 1142 of the explosion-proof valve 114 flips, there is no electrical connection between the explosion-proof valve 114 and the first electrode assembly 112 and the second electrode assembly 113.
- the flippable portion 1142 contacts the first conductive sheet 1122 above to achieve electrical connection. Since the opening side of the flippable portion 1142 continues to be connected to the fixed portion 1143 of the explosion-proof valve 114, and the fixed portion 1143 of the explosion-proof valve 114 is also connected to the cover body 111, an electrical connection is established between the first conductive sheet 1122 and the cover body 111, and the electrical connection between the first electrode assembly 112 and the cover body 111 is achieved.
- a protrusion 1144 may be provided on the surface of the reversible portion 1142 facing the first side of the cover body 111, and the protrusion 1144 is located on the side of the reversible portion 1142 away from the opening side. Since the side of the reversible portion 1142 away from the opening side will be closer to the first conductive sheet 1122 after being turned over, the protrusion 1144 is provided on this side so that it can be more easily contacted with the first conductive sheet 1122, thereby achieving electrical connection with the first conductive sheet 1122.
- the surface of the protrusion 1144 on one side away from the reversible portion 1142 may be an arc-shaped surface, so that the contact reliability between the protrusion 1144 and the first conductive sheet 1122 can be ensured.
- the protrusion 1144 may include a first portion 11441 and a second portion 11442. The first portion 11441 is disposed on the surface of the reversible portion 1142, and the second portion 11442 is disposed on the side of the first portion 11441 away from the reversible portion 1142.
- the first portion 11441 may be a columnar structure, such as a cylinder, and the second portion 11442 may be a hemispherical structure.
- the height of the first portion 11441 may be greater than or equal to 0.1 mm and less than or equal to 10 mm; the radius of the second portion 11442 may be greater than or equal to 0.1 mm and less than or equal to 10 mm.
- the height of the first portion 11441 can be 0.1 mm, 1 mm, 7 mm, 10 mm, etc.; the radius of the second portion 11442 can be 0.1 mm, 2 mm, 5 mm, 7 mm, etc.
- the present embodiment can determine whether the explosion-proof valve is open by detecting the voltage between the second electrode assembly 113 and the cover body 111.
- the battery may further include a voltage detection circuit 130, which is connected to the second conductive sheet 1132 of the second electrode assembly 113 and the cover body 111 through wires, respectively, to form a detection loop to detect in real time the voltage between the second conductive sheet 1132 and the cover body 111.
- the material of the wire in the detection loop includes, but is not limited to, one or more of metals such as gold, silver, copper, iron, zinc, tin, aluminum, magnesium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, platinum, tantalum, tungsten, rhenium, osmium, iridium, palladium, ruthenium, zirconium, molybdenum, vanadium, titanium and scandium.
- the BMS can be specifically used to determine that the flippable portion 1142 of the explosion-proof valve 114 is flipped when the detection voltage of the voltage detection circuit jumps to the first voltage, that is, to determine that the explosion-proof valve 114 is open.
- the first voltage here is the voltage between the second electrode assembly 113 and the first electrode assembly 112.
- the battery pack may also include an alarm.
- the BMS is connected to the alarm and can be used to control the alarm to issue an early warning after determining that the explosion-proof valve 114 is open.
- the BMS can be used to cut off the internal circuit of the battery cell according to the early warning issued by the alarm.
- the BMS can also control the release in the switch device to perform a tripping process according to the early warning issued by the alarm, and cut off the charge and discharge circuit of the battery pack for offline maintenance.
