  • Publication number: 20230187709
    Abstract: A safe lithium-ion battery and a manufacturing method therefor in which a positive or negative plate contain a redox shuttle agent. A battery positive electrode material is lithium iron phosphate, or a mixture of lithium iron phosphate and one or more of lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, lithium manganate, and lithium cobalt oxide, or a mixture of lithium iron phosphate and one or two of lithium manganese iron phosphate and lithium-rich lithium iron oxide. The lithium iron phosphate accounts for more than 60% (mass ratio). In the manufacturing process of an electrode plate (a positive plate or a negative plate), a redox shuttle agent is added as an additive. The additive can start a redox shuttle reaction at a specific voltage to convert redundant electrical energy into thermal energy; continuous charging can be tolerated under a voltage of 3.8-3.95V, thereby improving safety performance of the battery.

  • Publication number: 20230187611
    Abstract: Preparation of a silicon composite material, and a negative electrode plate containing same, relating to the field of silicon-based composite materials. The silicon composite material comprises silicon nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, silicon oxide, lithium oxide, and lithium metasilicate. The carbon nanotubes and the silicon nanoparticles are dispersed and cross-linked to form a three-dimensional network structure. Silicon oxide, lithium oxide, and lithium metasilicate cover the three-dimensional network structure to form secondary particles. The secondary particles and graphite are homogenized and coated according to a specific particle size ratio to prepare the negative electrode plate containing the silicon composite material and having high-capacity development, good conductivity, high coulombic efficiency, small volume expansion, and high cycling stability.

  • Publication number: 20230187760
    Abstract: A battery module comprises a fixing component including a plurality of insertion posts, the insertion posts being sandwiched between a plurality of the cells. Further, the cell is provided with a fillet structure on the edges and the insertion post is connected to the fillet structure. According to the battery module, a plurality of removable reinforcement points are provided by a plurality of insertion posts, which do not affect the stacking density of the cells in the battery pack, and increasing the mechanical connection strength of the battery module. The removable design of the battery module and insertion posts solves the maintenance problem of the integrated battery pack and improves the safety of the battery module, featuring high structural strength, integrity and stability. A battery pack can include the battery module and an electric vehicle can include the battery pack.

  • Patent number: 11322807
    Abstract: Provided are an electrode plate and a battery cell of a wound lithium-ion battery and a method for manufacturing same. The electrode plate comprises an electrode plate body and at least two groups of tabs arranged on the electrode plate body, with each group of tabs including multiple tabs, wherein the multiple tabs have equal intervals therebetween, and the widths of the multiple tabs are successively increased by 2??t, with ?t being the sum of the thicknesses of a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate and two layers of a separation film of the battery cell of the lithium-ion battery. The present invention can avoid the problem in the prior art of burrs on an electrode plate due to secondary die-cutting, and can reduce the possibility of self-discharge of the battery. Since the body of each tab is completely coated with an electrode material, the energy density is high, thereby improving the safety of the battery.
