Hereinafter the present disclosure will be further described in detail in combination with the exemplary embodiments and the figures.


Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, in a first embodiment, a secondary battery of the present disclosure comprises an electrode assembly 1, a pouch 2, an electrode lead 3 and a separating member 5.


The electrode assembly 1 is a core component of the secondary battery to realize the function of charge and discharge. The electrode assembly 1 comprises electrode plates 11 and a separator 13, the separator 13 separates the electrode plates 11. In the present disclosure, the electrode assembly 1 is a wound structure. Referring to FIG. 7, the electrode plates 11 are provided as two in number, the two electrode plates 11 respectively are a positive electrode plate and a negative electrode plate. The positive electrode plate, the negative electrode plate and the separator 13 are belt-shaped structures. The positive electrode plate, the separator 13 and the negative electrode plate are stacked sequentially and wound to two or more turns to form the electrode assembly 1, and the electrode assembly 1 is in a flat shape.


Referring to FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, the electrode plate 11 comprises a current collector 111 and an active material layer 112 coated on a surface of the current collector 111. For the negative electrode plate, the current collector 111 is a copper foil; the active material layer 112 comprises graphite or silicon. For the positive electrode plate, the current collector 111 is an aluminum foil, the active material layer 112 comprises ternary material, lithium manganese oxide or lithium iron phosphate.


In order to ensure insulation performance, in a length direction X, a dimension of the separator 13 is larger than a dimension of each electrode plate 11. Specifically, at one end of the electrode assembly 1 in the length direction X, one end of the separator 13 exceeds the electrode plates 11; at the other end of the electrode assembly 1 in the length direction X, the other end of the separator 13 exceeds the electrode plates 11. FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 show the profile of the electrode assembly 111. An outer surface of the electrode assembly 1 comprises a first surface 14 and a second surface 15, the first surface 14 is provided as two in number, and the two first surfaces 14 face each other in a thickness direction Z; the second surface 15 is provided as two in number, and the two second surfaces 15 face each other in a width direction Y, each second surface 15 connects two first surfaces 14. An area of the second surface 15 is smaller than an area of the first surface 14. The first surface 14 is a relatively flat surface and not required to be an absolute plane. At least a part of the second surface 15 is in the shape of arc.


Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the pouch 2 comprises two packaging films 22, the two packaging films 22 are arranged up and down in the thickness direction Z. Referring to FIG. 4, at least one packaging film 22 forms a cavity 23 by stamping, and the electrode assembly 1 is positioned between the two packaging films 22 and received in the cavity 23.


Referring to FIG. 5, each packaging film 22 comprises a protecting layer 221, a metal layer 222 and a connecting layer 223, the protecting layer 221 and the connecting layer 223 are respectively provided at two sides of the metal layer 222. Specifically, the protecting layer 221 can be fixed with a surface of the metal layer 222 away from the electrode assembly 1 via an adhesive; the connecting layer 223 can be fixed with a surface of the metal layer 222 close to the electrode assembly 1 via an adhesive.


The material of the protecting layer 221 may be nylon or polyethylene terephthalate, the material of the metal layer 222 may be an aluminum foil or a steel foil, the material of the connecting layer 223 may be polypropylene.


The two packaging films 22 are connected around the cavity 23 to form a sealing portion 21. Specifically, by heat press, the connecting layers 22 of the two packaging films 22 are directly connected or indirectly connected, thereby forming a sealed pouch 2. In the process of heat press, the connecting layers 223 are melted and compressed; therefore, after the process of heat press, a thickness of the sealing portion 21 is less than a sum of the thicknesses of the two packaging films 22 before heat press.


Referring to FIG. 3, the electrode lead 3 is connected with the electrode assembly 1, passes through the sealing portion 21 and extends to the outside of the pouch 2. Specifically, the electrode lead 3 may be provided as two in number, one electrode lead 3 is electrically connected with the positive electrode plate, the other electrode lead 3 is electrically connected with the negative electrode plate. The two electrode leads 3 connect the electrode assembly 1 and other components outside the pouch 2, and in turn achieve the charge and discharge of the electrode assembly 1. The material of the electrode lead 3 may be aluminum, nickel or nickel-plated copper.


The two electrode leads 3 extend in the length direction X. In the embodiment, the two electrode leads 3 extend at one side of the pouch 2 in the length direction X. Certainly, in an alternative embodiment, the two electrode leads 3 also can respectively extend at two sides of the pouch 2 in the length direction X.


The electrode lead 3 passes through between the two packaging films 22. The connecting layer 223 is thin, so the electrode lead 3 is easy to contact the metal layer 222, thereby causing safety risk. Therefore the secondary battery of the present disclosure is preferably provided with the separating member 5.


The separating member 5 may be provided as two in number. The two separating members 5 respectively separate the two electrode leads 3 and the sealing portion 21. Each separating member 5 surrounds one corresponding electrode lead 3. A part of the separating member 5 is clamped between the two packaging films 22, thereby separating the electrode lead 3 and the packaging film 22, reducing the risk that the electrode lead 3 contacts the metal layer 222. The material of the separating member 5 may be polypropylene.


A part of the separating member 5 is clamped between the two packaging films 22, so when the two packaging films 22 are heat pressed, the connecting layers 223 of the two packaging films 22 will be welded with the separating member 5.


In order to transmit the current of the electrode plate 11 to the electrode lead 3 conveniently, referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 11, the electrode assembly 1 of the present disclosure further comprises an electrode tab 12, the electrode tab 12 connects the electrode lead 3 and the current collector 111 of the electrode plate 11. Preferably, each current collector 111 of the electrode plate 11 may be connected with a plurality of electrode tabs 12; when the electrode plates 11 and the separator 13 are wound together, the plurality of electrode tabs 12 stack together and are capable of being welded to the electrode lead 3.


The electrode tabs 12 and the current collector 111 of the electrode plate 11 may be formed separately, for example, the electrode tabs 12 may be connected with the current collector 111 by welding. Preferably, the electrode tabs 12 and the current collector 111 of the electrode plate 11 are formed integrally. Referring to FIG. 13, the current collector 111 and the plurality of electrode tabs 12 are formed by cutting a metal foil.


In the forming process of the electrode plate 11, it needs to do cutting processes, which leads to burrs generated at two end portion 113, 114 of the current collector 111, especially the end portion 113 connected with the electrode tab 12. In addition, the active material layer 112 is coated on the surface of the current collector 111, the active material layer 112 will not exceed the current collector 111, and therefore end portions of the electrode plate 11 of the present disclosure refer to the two end portions 113, 114 of the current collector 111.


Referring to FIG. 4, the cavity 23 is formed by stamping the packaging film 22, and in the process of stamping, the packaging film 22 is stretched to a larger extent at a corner region G, which leads to the metal layer 222 at the corner region G thinner.


When the electrode assembly 1 is positioned in the cavity 23, a part of the electrode assembly 1 close to the second surface 15 faces the corner region G in the length direction Z. When the secondary battery is formed, the pouch 2 is kept in a low negative pressure state inside, a distance between the part of the electrode assembly 1 close to the second surface 15 and the corner region G is small; meanwhile, the metal layer 222 at the corner region G is thinner and the strength of the metal layer 222 at the corner region G is lower, so when the secondary battery vibrates, the corner region G is easy to be pierced by the burrs of the end portion of the electrode plate 11, thereby leading to leakage of electrolyte and causing safety risk.


Therefore, preferably, the secondary battery of the present disclosure further comprises an insulating tape 4, at least a part of the insulating tape 4 is provided on the second surface 15; in the length direction X, at least one end of the insulating tape 4 exceeds the electrode plate 11.


The risk that the corner region G is pierce by the part of the electrode assembly 1 close to the second surface 15 is highest, so the present disclosure preferably provides the insulating tape 4 on the second surface 15. The part of the insulating tape 4 exceeding the electrode plate 11 in the length direction X can separate the burrs of the electrode plate 11 and the corner region G, thereby reducing the risk that the packaging film 22 is pierced and improving sealing performance.


When the secondary battery vibrates, the corner region G will press the insulating tape 4, which leads to the part of the insulating tape 4 exceeding the electrode plate 11 in the length direction X bending towards the electrode plate 11, thereby making the insulating tape 4 cover the burrs of the end portion of the electrode plate 11, and avoiding the corner region G being pierced by the burrs.


Referring to FIG. 9, the insulating tape 4 comprises a first portion 41 and a second portion 42, the second portion 42 is bonded on the second surface 15, the first portion 41 is connected with an end portion of the second portion 42 close to the first surface 14 and bonded on the first surface 14. The second portion 42 can separate the burrs of the electrode plate 11 and the corner region G, thereby reducing the risk that the packaging film 22 is pierced. By providing the first portion 41, it can increase the connecting area between the insulating tape 4 and the electrode assembly 1, and reduce the risk that the insulating tape 4 falls off. In addition, the first portion 41 also can exert the function of separating the electrode plate 11 and the packaging film 22.


In the process of charge or discharge, the electrode assembly 1 will expand, and the expansion of a part of the electrode assembly 1 close to a midline of the first surface 14 in the width direction Y is maximum. If the first portion 41 covers the midline of the first surface 14, in the process of charge or discharge, the first portion 41 will seriously limit the expansion of the electrode assembly 1, which leads to the expanding stress being difficult to release and results in risk of precipitate of lithium. Therefore the first portion 41 can not cover the midline of the first surface 14, that is, in the width direction Y, an end portion of the first portion 41 away from the second portion 42 does not exceed the midline of the first surface 14.


When the secondary battery expands, compared to the first surface 14, the second surface 15 deforms more seriously, so the risk that the second portion 42 is separated with the second surface 15 is higher. If a dimension of the first portion 41 in the width direction Y is smaller, the connecting strength between the first portion 41 and the first surface 14 is lower, so when the secondary battery expands, the risk that the insulating tape 4 is detached from the electrode assembly 1 is higher. Therefore, in order to ensure the connecting strength between the electrode assembly 1 and the insulating tape 4, the dimension of the first portion 41 in the width direction Y is larger than 2mm.


The insulating tape 4 is an insulating adhesive tape, if a thickness of the insulating tape 4 is too small, the viscosity of the insulating tape 4 will be insufficient, and the insulating tape 4 is easy to fall off from the electrode assembly 1. If the thickness of the insulating tape 4 is too large, the insulating tape 4 will occupy a large space and influence the energy density. Therefore, preferably, the thickness of the insulating tape 4 is 10 μm˜50 μm.


In addition, the insulating tape 4 needs to bend to cover the burrs of the end portion of the electrode plate 11, if an elastic modulus of the insulating tape 4 is too high, the insulating tape 4 is difficult to bend, and cannot achieve the function of covering the burrs. Therefore, preferably, the elastic modulus is 1 Gpa˜6 Gpa.


Referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 9, in the electrode assembly 1, a tail end of the separator 13 forms a termination line L. In known technology, it generally attaches an adhesive tape on the termination line L, so as to prevent the separator 13 loosening. In the present disclosure, the insulating tape 4 at least covers a part of the termination line L. The insulating tape 4 of the present disclosure can exert the function of covering the burrs and fixing the separator 13 at the same time, thereby simplifying the attaching process.


In the length direction X, an end portion of the insulating tape 4 exceeds the separator 13. A part of the insulating tape 4 exceeding the separator 13 can bend to the separator 13 and be bonded with the separator 13, thereby improving bonding area between the insulating tape 4 and the separator 13. Preferably, in the length direction X, the end portion of the insulating tape 4 exceeds the separator by 0.1 mm-0.5 mm.


Referring to FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, in the embodiment, the insulating tape 4 is provided as plurality in number, the plurality of insulating tapes 4 comprise a first insulating tape 4a and a second insulating tape 4b, the first insulating tape 4a and the second insulating tape 4b are respectively provided on two second surfaces 15. In the length direction X, two ends of the first insulating tape 4a and two ends of the second insulating tape 4b exceed the electrode plate 11. The first insulating tape 4a and the second insulating tape 4b may completely cover the two second surfaces 15, so as to maximize the bonding area between the first insulating tape 4a and the electrode assembly 1 and the bonding area between the second insulating tape 4b and the electrode assembly 1, and ensure connecting strength.


Hereinafter the other embodiments of the secondary battery of the present disclosure will be described. In order to simplify description, hereinafter only the differences between the other embodiments and the first embodiment are described in detail, the undescribed part can be understood referring to the first embodiment.


Referring to FIG. 14, in a second embodiment, the insulating tape 4 is provided as three in number, the three insulating tapes 4 are a first insulating tape 4a, a second insulating tape 4b and a third insulating tape 4c.


The first insulating tape 4a and the second insulating tape 4b are provided on one second surface 15 and spaced apart from each other in the length direction X, the third insulating tape 4c is provided on the other second surface 15.


In the length direction X, an end portion of the first insulating tape 4a away from the second insulating tape 4b exceeds one end of the electrode plate 11, an end portion of the second insulating tape 4b away from the first insulating tape 4a exceeds the other end of the electrode plate 11. In the length direction X, two ends of the third insulating tape 4c exceed the electrode plate 11.


Compared to the first embodiment, the second embodiment can decrease the usage of the insulating tape 4, reduce the space occupied by the insulating tape 4, and improve the energy density of the secondary battery.


Referring to FIG. 15, in a third embodiment, the insulating tape 4 is provided as four in number, the four insulating tapes 4 are a first insulating tape 4a, a second insulating tape 4b, a third insulating tape 4c and a fourth insulating tape 4d.


The first insulating tape 4a and the second insulating tape 4b are provided on one second surface 15 and spaced apart from each other in the length direction X, the third insulating tape 4c and the fourth insulating tape 4d are provided on the other one second surface 15 and spaced apart from each other in the length direction X.

In the length direction X, an end portion of the third insulating tape 4c away from the fourth insulating tape 4d exceeds the one end of the electrode plate 11, an end portion of the fourth insulating tape 4d away from the third insulating tape 4c exceeds the other end of the electrode plate 11.


Compared to the second embodiment, the third embodiment can further decrease the usage of the insulating tape 4.

A tail end of the separator 13 after winding forms a termination line L, and the first portion 41 of the insulating tape 4 can cover a part of the termination line L to avoid separator 13 loosening.
