  • Publication number: 20250045257
    Abstract: A data quality check using a structured query language hint is described. A query optimizer of a database management system may receive a data quality check instruction as part of a database query statement for a database query. The query optimizer may modify a query execution plan for the database query based on the data quality check instruction so that completion of the database query is dependent on a result of a data quality check defined by the data quality check instruction. The database management system may execute the modified query execution plan.

  • Publication number: 20250015434
    Abstract: The present application provides a battery and an electrical device. The battery includes a battery cell and a release treating device. A pressure relief mechanism of the battery cell can release a substance inside the battery cell, a treating space of the release treating device is connected with the pressure relief mechanism, and a treating member in the treating space can treat the substance released by the pressure relief mechanism into the treating space to reduce a specified parameter of the substance. After the specified parameter of the substance is reduced, the possibility of combustion of the substance is greatly reduced, so that the battery is less prone to ignition when thermal runaway occurs, which is conducive to improving the safety of the battery.

  • Patent number: 12119511
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide an explosion-proof valve, a battery pack, and an apparatus. The explosion-proof valve includes a flame arresting member and an air permeable membrane. The flame arresting member is configured to connect to a housing of a battery pack, the air permeable membrane is fastened to the flame arresting member, and the battery pack is capable of exchanging gas with the outside through the flame arresting member and the air permeable membrane in sequence. During use of the explosion-proof valve of this application in the battery pack of this application, when thermal runaway occurs inside the housing of the battery pack, pressure inside the housing is suddenly increased, and as a result, the battery pack releases the pressure through the explosion-proof valve, and high-temperature runaway gas impacts and melts the air permeable membrane, forming a smooth air flow channel.
