Specifically, the battery cell further comprises a cover plate 3 buckled on the opening, and after the battery cell 1 is arranged in the shell 2 and buckled, the cover plate 3 is welded with the shell 2, so that the battery cell is assembled. The open-ended setting is favorable to the equipment of electric core 1 with shell 2, and the setting of apron 3 is favorable to electric core 1's protection.
Further, the cover plate 3 is provided with a positive terminal 31 electrically connected with the positive tab 11 and a negative terminal 32 electrically connected with the negative tab 12, so as to facilitate grouping of a plurality of subsequent battery cells. For example, the positive tab 11 and the positive terminal 31 are welded, the negative tab 12 and the negative terminal 32 are welded, and the welding connection reliability is higher.
In this embodiment, in order to provide the cooling duct 21 on the inner wall of the housing 2, the cooling duct 21 is integrally formed with the housing 2 by an extrusion or stamping process. The extrusion or stamping integrated molding process is simple, the manufacturing is convenient, and the structure of the shell 2 and the size of the battery cell are simplified due to the reduction of the number of parts.
Illustratively, the cross section of the cooling duct 21 is rectangular, and one side of the rectangle is attached to the outer wall of the battery cell 1, which is beneficial to improving the cooling effect of the cooling duct 21.
Preferably, to further improve the cooling effect of the cooling pipe 21, the cooling pipe 21 is spirally wound on the inner wall of the housing 2, which is beneficial to extending the length of the cooling pipe 21 and the contact area between the cooling pipe 21 and the battery cell 1, thereby improving the cooling effect.
