Patent Application
20250226545
This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) to and the benefit of Chinese Patent Application No. 202420042644.6, filed Jan. 8, 2024, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
The disclosure relates to the field of energy-storage, and in particular, to an energy-storage device and an electricity-consumption apparatus.
Secondary batteries, also known as rechargeable batteries or storage batteries, refer to batteries that can continue to be used by reactivating the active material through charging after the batteries are discharged. The recyclable nature of the secondary battery has gradually made them the main power source for electricity-consumption apparatuses. As the demand for the secondary battery increases, there are higher requirements for their energy density, reliability, and cost.
In order to improve the energy density of the secondary battery, the size of the electrode assembly is typically made larger. However, a larger electrode assembly further reduces the gap between the electrode assembly and the top cover. As a result, the space for arranging the tab becomes very limited, and the tab is prone to stress concentration, which leads to a decline in the stability of the electrical connection, thereby reducing the reliability of the secondary battery.
In a first aspect, an energy-storage device is provided. The energy-storage device includes an electrode assembly, a tab, a connector, and a lower plastic assembly. One end of the tab is connected to the electrode assembly, and the tab extends in a bent manner. The connector is connected to another end of the tab. The lower plastic assembly has a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The first surface faces towards the tab. The connector is located between the lower plastic assembly and the electrode assembly. An avoidance recess is defined in the first surface. The avoidance recess is located at an edge of the lower plastic assembly in a width direction of the lower plastic assembly and extends in a length direction of the lower plastic assembly. The tab has an extension portion, a bent portion, an inclined portion, and a connection portion that are sequentially connected. One end of the extension portion away from the bent portion is connected to the electrode assembly. One end of the connection portion away from the inclined portion is connected to the connector, and the bent portion extends in a bent manner and extends into the avoidance recess.
In a second aspect, the disclosure further provides an electricity-consumption apparatus. The electricity-consumption apparatus includes an electricity-consumption device and the energy-storage device provided in any one of the embodiments in the first aspect, where the energy-storage device is configured to power the electricity-consumption device.

The terms used in the specification of the disclosure are for merely describing embodiments rather than intending to limit the disclosure. The term “and/or” as used in the disclosure includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
Some embodiments of the disclosure will be described in detail hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments in the disclosure as well as features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without inconsistency.
Since the energy needed by people is highly temporal and spatial, in order to rationally utilize energy and improve energy efficiency, it is necessary to use a medium or device to store one form of energy, either in its original form or after converting it into another form of energy, and to release it in a specific form based on future application needs. Currently, the generation of green electrical energy generally relies on photovoltaic energy, wind energy, hydropower, etc., but wind energy, solar energy, and the other forms of energy commonly have issues with strong intermittency and large fluctuations, which can lead to grid instability. During peak electricity hours, there may not be enough power, while during off-peak electricity hours, there may be too much. Unstable voltage may also damage the power supply. As a result, problems such as “curtailment of wind and solar power” may arise due to insufficient electricity demand or the grid's limited capacity to accommodate power. To solve these problems, energy-storage is required. Specifically, electrical energy is converted into other forms of energy through physical or chemical means for storage, and when needed, the stored energy is converted back into electrical energy for release. In short, energy-storage is like a large “power bank” that stores electrical energy when photovoltaic energy and wind energy are abundant and releases the electrical energy stored when needed.
Taking electrochemical energy-storage as an example, this solution provides an energy-storage device, where a set of chemical batteries is disposed in the energy-storage device. Chemical elements in the chemical batteries are mainly used as an energy-storage medium, and a charging and discharging process is accompanied by chemical reactions or changes of the energy-storage medium. In short, electrical energy generated by wind energy and solar energy can be stored in the chemical battery, and when external electricity usage peaks, the electrical energy stored can be released for use, or transferred to areas with insufficient electricity.
The current application scenarios of energy-storage are relatively extensive, including power-generating-side energy-storage (wind and solar power), power-grid-side energy-storage, base station-side energy-storage, and user-side energy-storage. The corresponding types of energy-storage devices include the following.
(1) Large-scale energy-storage containers used in grid-side energy-storage scenarios, which can serve as a high-quality active and reactive power regulation power supply in a power grid, realize load matching of electrical energy in time and space, enhance the ability to integrate renewable energy, and are significant in terms of grid system standby, alleviating peak load supply pressure, and peak shaving and frequency regulation.
(2) Medium and small-sized energy-storage cabinets used in industrial and commercial energy-storage scenarios (banks, shopping malls, etc.) on the user side, which may mainly operate in a “peak shaving and valley filling” mode. Since there is a significant price difference in electricity costs between peak and off-peak electricity hours according to electricity demand, in a case where users have energy-storage devices, the users can typically charge the energy-storage cabinet/box during off-peak electricity hours to reduce costs. During peak electricity hours, the users can discharge the electricity stored in the energy-storage device for use to lower electricity costs.
A purpose of the disclosure is to provide an energy-storage device and an electricity-consumption apparatus 70 to address the issue of stress concentration occurring in a tab, which may lead to a decrease in the stability of the electrical connection and a reduction in the reliability of a secondary battery.
To achieve the purpose of the disclosure, the following technical solutions are provided in the disclosure.
Referring to
The energy-storage device 1000 may be implemented as multiple energy-storage devices 1000, and the multiple energy-storage devices 1000 may be connected in series or parallel. The multiple energy-storage devices 1000 may be supported and electrically connected using isolation plates (not illustrated). In this embodiment, “multiple” refers to two or more. An energy-storage box may also be provided externally to accommodate the multiple energy-storage devices 1000.
It may be understood that the energy-storage device 1000 may include, but is not limited to, individual cells, battery modules, battery packs, battery systems, and so on. The actual application forms of the energy-storage device 1000 provided in the embodiments of the disclosure may be, but are not limited to, the products listed above, and may also include other application forms. The embodiments of the disclosure do not impose strict limitations on the application forms of the energy-storage device 1000. In the embodiments of the disclosure, the energy-storage device 1000 is exemplified by a multi-cell battery.
Referring to
The energy-storage device 1000 in the embodiments of the disclosure will be explained in detail below.
Referring to
The housing 10 may be an aluminum shell or a steel shell, and may be in a shape of cuboid. The housing 10 defines an accommodating space, and one end of the housing 10 in the height direction (i.e., third direction Z) has an opening that communicates with the accommodating space.
The electrode assembly 20 is received in the accommodating space of the housing 10. The electrode assembly 20 may be implemented as one or more electrode assemblies 20. The electrode assembly 20 may have a wound or stacked structure. The electrode assembly 20 may include a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, which is not limited herein. In a case where there are multiple electrode assemblies 20, the multiple electrode assemblies 20 are arranged sequentially in second direction Y.
One end of the tab 30 is connected to one end of the electrode assembly 20 corresponding to the opening of the accommodating space, and another end of the tab 30 is connected to the connector 40. The tab 30 includes a first tab 31 and a second tab 32 with opposite polarities. For example, the first tab 31 is a positive tab 30, and the second tab 32 is a negative tab 30. The first tab 31 is connected to the positive electrode of the electrode assembly 20, and the negative tab 30 is connected to the negative electrode of the electrode assembly 20. The tab 30 may be a bendable sheet structure, and may be made of a metal, such as aluminum or copper, which is not limited herein.
The connector 40 is connected to another end of the tab 30 that is away from the electrode assembly 20. The connector 40 may be a sheet structure, which may be bendable or non-bendable, and may be made of a metal, such as aluminum or copper, which is not limited herein. In a case where there are multiple electrode assemblies 20, the same connector 40 may be connected to all tabs 30 of the same polarity of multiple electrode assemblies 20. For example, the connector 40 includes a first connector 41 and a second connector 42 with opposite polarities. One of the first connector 41 and the second connector 42 is a positive connector 40, and another one of the first connector 41 and the second connector 42 is a negative connector 40. The first tabs 31 of the multiple electrode assemblies 20 are all connected to the first connector 41, and the second tabs 32 of the multiple electrode assemblies 20 are all connected to the second connector 42.
The end cover assembly 50 is connected to the opening of the housing 10 and closes the accommodating space. The end cover assembly 50 is also electrically connected to the connector 40, allowing the electrode assembly 20 to be electrically connected to the external environment.
A protective film 60 may be provided on an outer surface of the electrode assembly 20. The protective film 60 may be an insulating film. The protective film 60 protects the electrode assembly 20 and prevents the electrode assembly 20 from electrically connecting with an inner wall of the housing 10.
The end cover assembly 50 includes a top cover 51, a lower plastic assembly 52, a terminal post 53, a sealing ring 54, and an explosion-proof valve 55.
The top cover 51 is a flat plate, which may be an aluminum or steel plate. A length direction of the top cover 51 is first direction X, a width direction of the top cover 51 is second direction Y, and a thickness direction of the top cover 51 is third direction Z. The top cover 51 may define various holes, recesses, etc., for installation, which is not limited herein. The top cover 51 is used to connect to the opening of the housing 10 to close the accommodating space.
The lower plastic assembly 52 may be an integrated plastic member formed by injection molding. A length direction of the lower plastic assembly 52 is first direction X, a width direction of the lower plastic assembly 52 is second direction Y, and a thickness direction of the lower plastic assembly 52 is third direction Z. The lower plastic assembly 52 has a first surface 521 and a second surface 522 opposite the first surface 521. Both the first surface 521 and the second surface 522 may be substantially flat and rectangular. The first surface 521 faces towards the tab 30, and the second surface 522 is in close contact with the top cover 51. The lower plastic assembly 52 may define recesses, holes, and other structures for installation, which is not limited herein. The lower plastic assembly 52 is used to space the connector 40 and the tab 30 apart from the top cover 51, thereby preventing the connector 40 and the tab 30 from being in short circuit with the top cover 51. The lower plastic assembly 52 is also used for installation of the terminal post 53.
The terminal post 53 includes a first terminal post and a second terminal post with opposite polarities. The first terminal post is connected to the first tab 31, and the second terminal post is connected to the second tab 32. The first terminal post and the second terminal post may be of an integrated structure or a separated structure, which is not limited herein.
Optionally, as illustrated in
A radial dimension of the first disc body 531 (i.e., a size of the first disc body 531 in a radial direction of the first column body 532) is larger than a radial dimension of the first column body 532, so that the first disc body 531 protrudes from an outer peripheral surface of the first column body 532. The first disc body 531 is connected to the first connector 41, and both the first disc body 531 and the first connector 41 are positioned between the lower plastic assembly 52 and the electrode assembly 20. The first column body 532 extends through the lower plastic assembly 52 and the top cover 51 to be in connection with the first disc body 531, where the first terminal post is exposed to one side of the top cover 51 away from the lower plastic assembly 52. Both the first disc body 531 and the first column body 532 are conductive components, which may be made of materials such as copper, aluminum, or copper-aluminum composite.
Similarly, a radial dimension of the second disc body 533 (i.e., a size of the second disc body 533 in a radial direction of the second column body 534) is larger than a radial dimension of the second column body 534, so that the second disc body 533 protrudes from an outer peripheral surface of the second column body 534. The second disc body 533 is connected to the second connector 42, and both the second disc body 533 and the second connector 42 are located between the lower plastic assembly 52 and the electrode assembly 20. The second column body 534 extends through the lower plastic assembly 52 and the top cover 51 to be in connection with the second disc body 533, where the second terminal post is exposed to one side of the top cover 51 away from the lower plastic assembly 52. Both the second disc body 533 and the second column body 534 are conductive members, which may be made of materials such as copper, aluminum, or copper-aluminum composite.
The sealing ring 54 includes a first sealing ring 541 and a second sealing ring 542. The first sealing ring 541 is sleeved on the outer peripheral surface of the first column body 532 and abuts against an inner wall of a hole in the top cover 51. The second sealing ring 542 is sleeved on the outer peripheral surface of the second column body 534 and abuts against an inner wall of a hole in the top cover 51. Both the first sealing ring 541 and the second sealing ring 542 may be plastic components, serving to separate the first column body 532 from the top cover 51, and the second column body 534 from the top cover 51, thereby preventing contact between the first column body 532 and the top cover 51, as well as between the second column body 534 and the top cover 51, as such contact would otherwise result in a short circuit between the first column body 532 and the second column body 534 via the top cover 51.
The explosion-proof valve 55 is arranged on the top cover 51. When the electrode assembly 20 generates a large amount of gas due to abnormal thermal management and the gas pressure exceeds the threshold of the explosion-proof valve 55, the explosion-proof valve 55 will rupture to release the gas, thereby preventing accidents such as explosions due to trapped gas.
The end cover assembly 50 also defines an electrolyte injection hole 511 that extends through the top cover 51 and the lower plastic assembly 52. The electrolyte injection hole 511 is used for electrolyte injection into the accommodating space of the housing 10.
Referring to
In conventional designs, the first surface 521 of the lower plastic assembly 52 is substantially flat. When arranging the tab 30, a space between the first surface 521 and the electrode assembly 20 is very narrow, making the arrangement of the tab 30 highly constrained. This can easily lead to stress concentration, thereby reducing the stability of the electrical connection and ultimately affecting the reliability of the secondary battery. Since the tab 30 includes the first tab 31 and the second tab 32, the first surface 521 of the lower plastic assembly 52 may define one avoidance recess 523 at each of the positions corresponding to the first tab 31 and the second tab 32, to accommodate at least part of the first tab 31 and at least part of the second tab 32, respectively.
In the embodiments of the disclosure, the avoidance recess 523 is defined in the first surface 521 of the lower plastic assembly 52 to accommodate at least part of the tab 30, increasing the space available for arranging the tab 30. This ample arrangement space for the tab 30 reduces stress concentration, thereby preventing a decrease in the stability of the electrical connection and ensuring the reliability of the energy-storage device 1000.
In one embodiment, as illustrated in
In conventional energy-storage devices 1000, a limited space for arranging the tab 30 results in an excessively large bending angle, with the bending angle of the tab 30 approaching 180°, leading to significant stress concentration at the bend.
In contrast, in the embodiments of the disclosure, since the avoidance recess 523 can accommodate at least part of the tab 30, more space is available for bending of the tab 30. This reduces the bending angle of the tab 30, thereby decreasing stress concentration.
Optionally, referring to
Exemplarily, the extension portion 312 extends in third direction Z, that is, the extension portion 312 extends in a direction from the electrode assembly 20 to the lower plastic assembly 52. The bent portion 313 is substantially arc-shaped, where one end of the bent portion 313 is smoothly connected to the extension portion 312 and another end of the bent portion 313 is smoothly connected to the inclined portion 314. The inclined portion 314 generally extends in a compound direction of first direction X and third direction Z, i.e., the inclined portion 314 is inclined with respect to both first direction X and third direction Z. There is an included angle between the inclined portion 314 and the connection portion 315. The extension portion 312, the inclined portion 314, and the connection portion 315 may each be substantially plate-shaped. The bent portion 313 represents the highest position of the tab 30 protruding from the electrode assembly 20. In the embodiments of disclosure, the bent portion 313 is farther away from the electrode assembly 20 in third direction Z than the rest of the tab 30.
By configuring the bent portion 313 to extend into the avoidance recess 523, the bending angle of the bent portion 313 can be increased, thereby enlarging the included angle between the inclined portion 314 and the extension portion 312. This prevents the bending angle of the bent portion 313 from being too small, as a too small bending angle would otherwise reduce the included angle between the inclined portion 314 and the extension portion 312 and lead to stress concentration.
Optionally, referring to
Optionally, the electrode assembly 20 may have only one tab 30. In comparison to the embodiment with the merging portion 311, in this embodiment, the extension portion 312 of the tab 30 is directly connected to the electrode assembly 20.
Optionally, the connector 40 is spaced apart from the extension portion 312. This creates a gap between the extension portion 312 and the connector 40, allowing for the arrangement of the inclined portion 314.
In conventional solutions, an orthographic projection of the connector 40 in third direction Z substantially coincides with an orthographic projection of the tab 30 in third direction Z. That is, the connector 40 is located at one side of the tab 30 away from the electrode assembly 20, completely isolating the tab 30 from the lower plastic assembly 52. This arrangement results in the arrangement space for the tab 30 being limited to a space between the connector 40 and the electrode assembly 20.
In contrast, in the embodiments of the disclosure, there is a gap between the connector 40 and the extension portion 312. Specifically, the connector 40 has a spacing distance from the extension portion 312 in second direction Y, effectively reducing the size of the connector 40 in second direction Y. This configuration allows the gap between the extension portion 312 and the connector 40 to be utilized for the arrangement of the tab 30, thereby expanding the space for the arrangement of the tab 30 and further reducing stress concentration.
In one embodiment, referring to
In this embodiment, the distances from both ends of the inclined portion 314 to the electrode assembly 20 refer to the lengths of the perpendicular lines drawn from these ends to the end surface of the electrode assembly 20 facing the lower plastic assembly 52.
Setting the first distance H1 greater than the second distance H2 allows the one end of the inclined portion 314 connected to the bent portion 313 to be farther away from the electrode assembly 20 than the another end of the inclined portion 314 connected to the connection portion 315. That is, with respect to the electrode assembly 20 as a reference, the height of the one end of the inclined portion 314 connected to the bent portion 313 is higher, while the height of the another end of the inclined portion 314 connected to the connection portion 315 is lower. This arrangement allows the bent portion 313 to extend into the avoidance recess 523, while the connection portion 315 can be easily connected to the connector 40.
Optionally, referring to
The third surface 411 and the fourth surface 412 may both be substantially flat. The third surface 411 faces towards the first surface 521, and the third surface 411 may be spaced apart or in close contact with the first surface 521, which is not limited herein. The fourth surface 412 faces towards the electrode assembly 20, and the fourth surface 412 is spaced apart from the electrode assembly 20. The connection portion 315 is connected to the fourth surface 412, making the connection process between the tab 30 and the connector 40 easier. Specifically, during the connection of the tab 30 and the connector 40, the tab 30 is first welded to the fourth surface 412, and then the tab 30 is bent and assembled into the housing 10. Since the fourth surface 412 is exposed, it facilitates the welding process. Based on the connection between the connection portion 315 and the fourth surface 412, and because there is a gap between the fourth surface 412 and the third surface 411, there will necessarily be a certain distance between the fourth surface 412 and the lower plastic assembly 52. To allow the bent portion 313 to extend into the avoidance recess 523, the inclined portion 314 is configured as described above, with both ends of the inclined portion 314 positioned at different heights relative to the electrode assembly 20.
Optionally, referring to
Since one end of the inclined portion 314 is connected to the bent portion 313, and the bent portion 313 extends into the avoidance recess 523, while the connection portion 315 is connected to the fourth surface 412, the inclined portion 314 needs to extend from a position substantially flush with the fourth surface 412 to a position substantially flush with the third surface 411 in a direction from the bent portion 313 to the connection portion 315. By providing the inclined surface 413 of the connector 40, which faces towards the inclined portion 314 and serves to allow clearance for the inclined portion 314, thereby providing a greater space for the arrangement of the inclined portion 314 and preventing the inclined portion 314 from contacting an edge corner of the connection portion 315 and avoiding damage to the tab 30.
Optionally, referring to
The first included angle A may be greater than, equal to, or less than the second included angle B. The first included angle A may range from 120° to 170°, specifically, it may be 120°, 130°, 135°, 140°, 150°, 160°, 170°, etc., which is not limited herein. The second included angle B may also range from 120° to 170°, specifically, it may be 120°, 130°, 135°, 140°, 150°, 160°, 170°, etc., which is not limited herein.
The first included angle A and the second included angle B satisfy 0°≤|A−B|≤30°, allowing the inclined portion 314 and the inclined surface 413 to be substantially parallel to each other or to define a small included angle therebetween. This configuration prevents the inclined portion 314 from easily coming into contact with the connector 40, thereby avoiding stress concentration on the tab 30 caused by the pressure from the connector 40.
In one embodiment, referring to
In this configuration, at least part of the bent portion 313 protrudes beyond the third surface 411, so that the bent portion 313 can extend into the avoidance recess 523. One end of the inclined portion 314 that connects to the bent portion 313 may be flush with the third surface 411, protrude beyond the third surface 411, or be positioned between the third surface 411 and the fourth surface 412.
Such an arrangement allows a space of the avoidance recess 523 to accommodate at least part of the tab 30, thereby increasing the space for the arrangement of the tab 30 and reducing stress concentration.
In one embodiment, referring to
Specifically, an orthographic projection of the side wall of the avoidance recess 523 closer to the center of the lower plastic assembly 52 on the top cover 51 at least partially coincides with an orthographic projection of a side edge of the connector 40 facing the extension portion 312 on the top cover 51. In this way, the connector in third direction Z does not significantly occupy the space of the avoidance recess 523, allowing sufficient room for the arrangement of the tab 30.
In one embodiment, referring to
Compared to a configuration where the tab 30 is connected to a middle region of the electrode assembly 20 in the thickness direction of the electrode assembly 20, the embodiments of the disclosure position the tab 30 at the side edge of the electrode assembly 20 in the thickness direction of the electrode assembly 20. This allows the middle portion of the electrode assembly 20, as well as another side edge away from the tab 30, to be free from the tab 30, thereby facilitating the arrangements of other components and enabling more efficient use of limited space.
In one embodiment, referring to
This arrangement places both the first tab 31 and the second tab 32 on the same side, thereby also facilitating the arrangements of other components and enabling more efficient use of limited space.
In one embodiment, referring to
For each of the two electrode assemblies 20, the first tab 31 and the second tab 32 are connected to the side edge of the electrode assembly 20 away from another electrode assembly 20. Specifically, for each of the two electrode assemblies 20, the first tab 31 and the second tab 32 connected to the electrode assembly 20 are positioned on the outer side of the electrode assembly 20 in second direction Y of the electrode assembly 20. That is, for each of the two electrode assemblies 20, the first tab 31 of the electrode assembly 20 is positioned on a side edge of the electrode assembly 20 away from another electrode assembly 20, and the second tab 32 of the electrode assembly 20 is also positioned on the side edge of the electrode assembly 20 away from the another electrode assembly 20. This arrangement provides ample space between the two first tabs 31 of the two electrode assemblies 20, as well as ample space between the two second tabs 32 of the two electrode assemblies 20, facilitating the arrangement of other components.
Correspondingly, as illustrated in
In one embodiment, referring to
By using a single first connector 41 to connect both the two first tabs 31 and a single second connector 42 to connect both the two second tabs 32, the number of connectors 40 is reduced from four to two compared with a configuration where each tab 30 (i.e., the first tab 31 or the second tab 32) is connected to an independent connector 40. This reduction in connectors 40 enhances the integration level of the energy storage device 1000.
It may be understood that terms such as “center”, “on”, “under”, “left”, “right”, “vertical”, “horizontal”, “in”, “out”, and the like referred to herein which indicate directional relationship or positional relationship are directional relationship or positional relationship based on accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of description and simplicity, rather than explicitly or implicitly indicate that apparatuses or components referred to herein must have a certain direction or be configured or operated in a certain direction and therefore cannot be understood as limitation on the disclosure.
The above embodiments are only part of embodiments of this disclosure and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the disclosure. Those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that all of or part of processes for implementing the above embodiments can be made, and equivalent modifications made in accordance with the claims of the disclosure still fall within the scope of the disclosure.
