CELL AND ELECTRIC APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240030528 titled 'CELL AND ELECTRIC APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a battery cell with an electrode assembly and a housing. The housing has a cavity and a cover that seals the cavity. The cover is connected to a flange to form a side wing that seals the cavity. The battery cell also includes a tab sandwiched between the side wings and extending out of the housing. The side wing has a first sealing structure and a second sealing structure, with the second sealing structure exceeding the first sealing structure in a specific direction.
- The battery cell includes an electrode assembly and a housing with a cavity.
- The housing has a cover that seals the cavity and is connected to a flange to form a side wing.
- A tab is sandwiched between the side wings and extends out of the housing.
- The side wing has a first sealing structure and a second sealing structure, with the second sealing structure being larger in a specific direction.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Battery cells with improved sealing capabilities.
- Enhanced protection against leakage or external contaminants.
- Suitable for various battery-powered devices and applications.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides a more secure and effective sealing mechanism for battery cells.
- Reduces the risk of leakage or damage to the electrode assembly.
- Enhances the overall performance and reliability of battery cells.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved safety and durability of battery cells.
- Enhanced protection against environmental factors.
- Increased lifespan and efficiency of battery-powered devices.
- Potential for cost savings due to reduced maintenance or replacement needs.
Original Abstract Submitted
a battery cell, including an electrode assembly and a housing accommodating the electrode assembly. the housing includes a cavity and a cover covering the cavity. the cavity includes a flange extending along a border of an opening of the cavity. periphery of the cover is connected to the flange to form a side wing to seal the cavity. the battery cell further includes a tab sandwiched between the side wings and extending out of the housing along the side wings. the side wing has a first sealing structure and a second sealing structure. a direction from an edge, away from the border, of the side wing to the border is defined as a first direction, and the second sealing structure exceeds the first sealing structure in the first direction.
