Problems solved by technology

The cylindrical winding core may shake inside the battery case. When the shaking is severe, the welding point between the winding core tab and the battery top cover or the case will be disconnected, and the winding core and the tab will be separated, which will eventually lead to the battery’s circuit breaker.
There are generally two ways to solve the above problems, one is to increase the filling degree of the battery, but a larger filling degree will make it difficult for the winding core to enter the shell, the electrolyte infiltration speed is slow, and it is not easy to automate production; the other is to increase the filling degree of the battery. A stop frame is added to the top of the core. The addition of the stop frame can better restrain the longitudinal movement of the core, but the suppression effect on the lateral movement of the core is not obvious enough, especially for larger cylindrical batteries. The lateral stop effect of the core will be worse

Abstract

A cylindrical battery case consisting of a battery case wall and a polymer lining uniformly attached to the inside of the case wall. When the electrolyte is injected into the battery, the polymer lining on the inner side of the battery case wall swells and bulges, allowing it to come into close contact with the winding core. The cylindrical casing provided by the present invention can effectively avoid the sloshing of the cylindrical winding core in the casing without affecting the automatic production efficiency, and play the role of a stop. At the same time, the polymer lining on the battery casing wall can To store the electrolyte and inhibit the expansion of the winding core during the cycle, thereby improving the cycle performance of the battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium batteries, in particular to a cylindrical battery case. Background technique [0002] The ratio of the cross-sectional area of ​​the cylindrical core to the internal cross-sectional area of ​​the cylindrical battery case is called the filling degree of the cylindrical battery. The cylindrical winding core may shake inside the battery casing. When the shaking is severe, the welding point between the winding core tab and the battery top cover or the casing will be disconnected, and the winding core and the tab will be separated, eventually leading to the battery's open circuit. There are generally two ways to solve the above problems, one is to increase the filling degree of the battery, but a larger filling degree will make it difficult for the winding core to enter the shell, the electrolyte infiltration speed is slow, and it is not easy to automate production; the other is to increase the filling...
