Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all embodiments of the present application.

The battery and the electronic device according to the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, in the present application, description is made by taking an example where the battery is a button battery. The button battery refers to a battery with the shape and size of a button. Generally, its diameter is relatively large and its thickness is relatively thin. Therefore, the button battery is classified by appearance.

However, the present application is not limited thereto, and other types of batteries are also possible. When the battery is other type of battery, the principle of pressure resistance is similar to this, and will not be repeated here.

Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4, the battery 100 of the embodiment of the present application includes an electrode assembly 10, a lower casing 20, a first conductive part 30 and a second conductive part 50, where an opening 21 is provided at a top of the lower casing 20, the second conductive part 50 covers the opening of the lower casing 20, the second conductive part 50 and the lower casing 20 define an accommodating cavity 40, and the electrode assembly 10 is located in the accommodating cavity 40;

• • the first conductive part 30 is connected to a side of the second conductive part 50 facing the accommodating cavity 40, and a sealing layer 60 is provided between the first conductive part 30 and the second conductive part 50 to render insulation therebetween, and the second conductive part 50 is provided with a through hole 51, and at least part of a structure of the first conductive part 30 is exposed outside of the accommodating cavity 40 through the through hole 51.

In the above solution, the first conductive part 30 is arranged to be connected to the side of the second conductive part 50 facing the accommodating cavity 40, that is, the first conductive part 30 is connected to a surface of an inner side of the second conductive part 50, and at the same time, the first conductive part and the second conductive part are connected through the sealing layer, hence, during the use of the battery 100, if an internal pressure is high, the first conductive part 30 will move upwards under the internal pressure, the sealing layer between the first conductive part and the second conductive part can play a role in buffering the pressure; at the same time, a part of the first conductive part 30 corresponding to the second conductive part 50 will be blocked by the second conductive part 50 during the rising process, and the second conductive part 50 as a whole will offset part of the pressure on the first conductive part and take the pressure on the first conductive part 30, thereby avoiding problems such as a top cover being ejected during the use of the battery, and improving the internal pressure resistance of the battery.

In addition, electrolyte is injected into the lower casing 20 through a gap between the top of the lower casing 20 and the second conductive part. On the one hand, there is no need to additionally provide a liquid injection port on the first conductive part 30 or the second conductive part 50, which is not only simple in structure and easy to manufacture, but also saves the structure of a sealing part compared with the prior art. Therefore, it is unlikely for such a problem that the internal pressure of the battery 100 is applied to the sealing part to cause the sealing part to be easily ejected.

It should be noted that, in the present application, description is made by taking an example where the first conductive part 30 is a positive conductive part and the second conductive part 50 is a negative conductive part, but the present application is not limited thereto. Also, it is possible that the first conductive part 30 is a negative conductive part and the second conductive part 50 is a positive conductive part.

In one embodiment of the present application, referring to FIG. 3, the electrode assembly 10 can include a rolled core 15, a first electrode tab 11 and a second electrode tab 12; the rolled core 15 includes a first electrode piece 13, a second electrode piece 14, and an isolation membrane 16, etc. Specifically, the rolled core 15 can be a cylindrical winding body and be arranged in the accommodating cavity 40, and the electrolyte is also accommodated in the accommodating cavity 40 at the same time, the first electrode piece 13 and the second electrode piece 14 are separated by the isolation membrane 16 and are rolled together.

In this embodiment, the first electrode piece 13 is electrically connected with the first electrode tab 11, and the second electrode piece 14 is electrically connected with the second electrode tab 12. The first electrode tab 11 and the second electrode tab 12 can be respectively drawn out from either end sides of the rolled core 15. Specifically, both a winding head end and a winding tail end of the first electrode piece 13 have an empty foil area, both a winding head end and a winding tail end of the second electrode piece 14 have an empty foil area, and the first electrode tab 11 is electrically connected to the empty foil area at the winding tail end of the first electrode piece 13, and the second electrode tab 12 is electrically connected to the empty foil area at the winding tail end of the second electrode piece 14.

In some embodiments of the present application, a connection position of the first electrode tab 11 on the first electrode piece 13 can also be other positions, and a connection position of the second electrode tab 12 on the second electrode piece 14 can also be other positions. In still some specific embodiments, the winding head end of the first electrode piece does not have the empty foil area, the winding head end of the second electrode piece does not have the empty foil area.

In addition, the second electrode tab 12 is connected to the lower casing 20, and the lower casing 20 is electrically connected to the second conductive part 50, so the second electrode tab 12 is electrically connected to the second conductive part 50, and the first conductive part 30 is electrically connected to the first electrode tab 11 directly.

In the embodiment of the present application, the lower casing 20 may be a metal casing, and the cross-sectional shape of the lower casing 20 is not limited to a circle, but may also be an ellipse, a polygon, and the like.

Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 3, the lower casing 20 includes a bottom wall 22 and a side wall 23 surrounding an edge of the bottom wall 22, so that the lower casing 20 forms a hood shape part. In the embodiment of the present application, before the lower casing 20 is connected to and fixed with the second the conductive part 50, the gap between the top of the lower casing 20 and the second conductive part 50 is used as a liquid injection port, that is, the electrolyte is injected into the accommodating cavity 40 through the gap between the top of the lower casing 20 and the second conductive part 50.

In addition, a second chamfer structure may be provided at a connection position between the side wall 23 and the bottom wall 22 of the lower casing, and an angle of the second chamfer structure may be in a range of 5° to 90°.

Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the second conductive part 50 can cover the opening 21 of the lower casing 20, the second conductive part 50 and the lower casing 20 can define the accommodating cavity 40, and the above-mentioned electrode assembly 10 can be arranged in the accommodating cavity 40. A top end portion of the side wall 23 may be connected to an edge portion of the second conductive part 50. For example, the edge portion of the second conductive part 50 may be connected to the top end portion of the side wall 23 by laser welding. In this way, the second conductive part 50 is actually connected to the opening 21 of the lower casing 20. In addition, a chamfer may also be provided at a connection position between the second conductive part 50 and the lower casing 20, and the chamfer may have an angle of 5° to 90°.

Of course, in order to facilitate the welding of the second conductive part 50 and the side wall 23, in a specific embodiment, the edge of the second conductive part 50 is thinned, for example, referring to FIG. 4, a positioning groove 52 is formed on the second conductive part 50 at a near-edge position, the positioning groove 52 is located on a surface of the second conductive part 50 facing the electrode assembly, the top end of the side wall 23 can be connected in the positioning groove 52, the positioning groove 52 corresponds to the top end portion of the side wall 23, thus the positioning groove 52 is formed as an annular structure. Exemplarily, the positioning groove 52 may have a depth of 0.05 mm to 0.1 mm.

As a possible implementation, the positioning groove 52 extends to an edge side surface of the second conductive part 50, a first chamfer structure is formed between the groove bottom and the groove wall of the positioning groove 52, and an angle of the first chamfer structure is in a range of 5° to 90°.

In the embodiment of the present application, the second conductive part 50 is provided with a through hole 51, and the first conductive part 30 is connected to the side of the second conductive part 50 facing the accommodating cavity 40. It should be noted that a sealing layer 60 is provided between the first conductive part 30 and the second the conductive part 50 to insulate them, which can prevent the electrolyte from leaking out of the battery 100. Here, the sealing layer 60 may be insulating glue, and the sealing layer 60 may have a thickness of 5 μm to 200 μm.

In this way, at least part of the structure of the first conductive part 30 is exposed outside of the accommodating cavity 40 through the through hole 51. Referring to FIG. 1, viewed from the entire exteriority of the battery 100, the lower casing 20 and the second conductive part 50 are a second electrode of the battery 100, such as a negative electrode; a portion of the first conductive part 30 exposed outside of the through hole 51 forms a first electrode of the battery 100, such as a positive electrode. Because part of the structure of the first conductive part 30 is exposed outside of the battery 100 through the through hole 51, both the first electrode and the second electrode of the battery 100 can be arranged on the top side of the battery 100.

In the embodiment of the present application, in order to facilitate the connection between the first conductive part 30 and external components, such as conductive sheets, a protruding structure may be provided on the top of the first conductive part 30.

Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the first conductive part 30 includes a body 31 and a protruding portion 32 protruding from a surface of the body 31, and part of an area of the body 31 is connected to a surface of the second conductive part 50 facing the accommodating cavity 40 through the sealing layer 60, the protruding portion 32 is located in the through hole 51 of the second conductive part 50, so that the protruding portion 32 can be exposed outside of the battery 100 through the through hole 51. Here, it should be noted that there may be a distance between a side wall 23 of the protruding portion 32 and a hole wall of the through hole 51, to avoid a mutual contact between the protruding portion 32 and the through hole 51 and an occurrence of short circuit.

Certainly, the sealing layer 60 includes a sealing layer main body 55 and an isolation portion 54 located between the through hole and the protruding portion 32, and the sealing layer main body 55 is clamped between the first conductive part 30 and the second conductive part 50. Specifically, the sealing layer main body 55 is located between radial surfaces of the first conductive part 30 and the second conductive part 50. The isolation portion 54 is clamped between the side wall 23 of the protruding portion 32 and the hole wall of the through hole. In the case where both the sealing layer main body 55 and the isolation portion 54 are insulating glue, the sealing layer main body 55 and the isolation portion 54 can be integrally formed. For example, when the first conductive part 30 and the second conductive part 50 are provided with insulating glue, the portion of the insulating glue between the radial surfaces of the first conductive part 30 and the second conductive part 50 forms the sealing layer main body 55, and surplus insulating glue can overflow towards the gap between the protruding portion 32 and the through hole 51, to form the isolation portion 54. That is, the sealing layer main body 55 and the isolation portion 54 may be insulating glue with the same composition.

In another specific embodiment, the isolation portion and the sealing layer main body 55 may be insulating glue with different compositions.

In the above solution, the isolation portion is set to be located between the protruding portion 32 and the hole wall of the through hole, gluing areas of the first conductive part 30 and the second conductive part 50 are increased, and the stability of the first conductive part 30 and the second conductive part 50 is improved, meanwhile, the isolation portion 54 can effectively buffer the internal pressure in a width direction of the battery, preventing the first conductive part 30 from moving leftwards and rightwards, and preventing the protruding portion and the through hole from contacting each other to cause a short circuit.

In an implementation, a top end surface of the isolation portion 54 is flush with a top end surface of the second conductive part 50; or a setting height of the top end surface of the isolation portion 54 relative to a bottom of the battery 100 is higher than a setting height of the top end surface of the second conductive part 50 relative to the bottom of the battery 100; or, the setting height of the top end surface of the isolation portion 54 relative to the bottom of the battery 100 is lower than the setting height of the top end surface of the second conductive part 50 relative to the bottom of the battery 100. For example, a height difference between the top end surface of the isolation portion 54 and the top end surface of the second conductive part 50 may be in a range of −100 μm to 100 μm. In addition, the isolation portion 54 may have a thickness of 5 μm to 200 μm.

In the embodiment of the present application, referring to FIG. 4, a top end surface of the protruding portion 32 is flush with the top end surface of the second conductive part 50; or the setting height of the top end surface of the protruding portion 32 relative to the bottom of the battery 100 is higher than the setting height of the top end surface of the first conductive part 30 relative to the bottom of the battery 100. Alternatively, the setting height of the top end surface of the protruding portion 32 relative to the bottom of the battery 100 may be lower than the setting height of the top end surface of the first conductive part 30 relative to the bottom of the battery 100.

Exemplarily, a height difference between the top end surface of the protruding portion 32 and the top end surface of the second conductive part is in a range of −150 μm to 150 μm.

In addition, the protruding portion 32 can be a solid of revolution, for example, in a circular table shape, and the shape of the body 31 can also be a circular table shape, the present application is not limited thereto. The protruding portion 32 may also be set in other shapes. When the protruding portion 32 is a circular table, a cross-sectional diameter of the protruding portion 32 is in a range of 10 μm to 2000 μm. In addition, at a connection position between the protruding portion 32 and the body 31, a chamfer can be provided, and the outer side wall 23 of the protruding portion 32 can be parallel to a thickness direction of the battery 100 (thickness direction of the first conductive part), or have an included angle relative to the thickness direction of the battery 100, that is, it is inclined relative to the thickness direction of the battery 100. Alternatively, a connection position between the protruding portion 32 and the body 31 is provided with a rounded corner structure.

Both the protruding portion 32 and the body may have a thickness of 2 μm to 300 μm.

In embodiments of the present application, first, the first conductive part 30 and the second conductive part 50 are secured together by bonding through insulating glue and baking; then, they are placed on the lower casing 20 correspondingly with the gap between the lower casing 20 and the second conductive part 50 being used as a liquid injection port, and the electrolyte is injected into the lower casing 20 through the gap between the second conductive part 50 and the lower casing 20; and after that, the second conductive part 50 and the lower casing 20 are fixed by welding. On the one hand, there is no need to additionally set a liquid injection port on the first conductive part 30 or the second conductive part 50, which not only simplifies the structure of the first conductive part 30 and the second conductive part 50, but also makes it easy to manufacture; on the other hand, compared with the prior art, there is no need to use the sealing part to seal and cover the liquid injection port, which saves the material cost of the sealing part, and simplifies the manufacturing process. Therefore, it is unlikely for such a problem that the internal pressure of the battery 100 is exerted on the sealing part to cause the sealing part to be easily ejected.
