The first pole piece assembly 32 and the second pole piece assembly 42 may be the same or different, for example, if the first pole piece assembly 32 is in a coiled configuration, the second pole piece assembly 42 may be in a coiled configuration or a laminated configuration.
Referring to fig. 7, the first tab 34 includes a first connection portion 341, a first seal portion 342, and a first extension portion 343 sequentially connected, the first connection portion 341 is configured to be connected to the first pole piece assembly 32, the first seal portion 342 is located in the seal area 100a, and the first extension portion 343 is located outside the housing 10. The first seal portion 342 includes a first surface 3421 and a second surface 3422 disposed opposite to each other.

Further, T 1 -T 2 ≥7℃。
In some embodiments, D 1 <D 2 ,T 1 >T 2 Taking the final melting temperature of the second ear glue 60 as Th 2 Meets Th 2 >T 1 . The final melting temperature refers to the temperature at which the meltable member just melts completely from a solid state to a liquid state when tested by a micro-melting point tester. When meeting Th 2 >T 1 When the first tab adhesive 50 begins to melt before the second tab adhesive 60 is completely melted, the risk of the second tab adhesive 60 on the second surface 3422 being excessively melted to affect the sealing effect is reduced. In some embodiments, the final melting temperature Th of the second ear glue 60 2 Melting point T with second ear glue 60 2 The difference between them is not less than 25 ℃, i.e. Th 2 -T 2 Not less than 25 ℃.

In this way, the third ear glue 70 and the fourth ear glue 80 can be fully melted in the heat sealing process, so that the seal area 100a is sealed well, and the electrochemical device 100 has no leakage. Further, T 4 -T 3 ≥7℃。
In some embodiments, D 3 >D 4 ,T 4 >T 3 Taking the final melting temperature of the third ear glue 70 as Th 3 Meets Th 3 >T 4 . When meeting Th 3 >T 4 When the third ear glue 70 is completely melted, the fourth ear glue 80 is melted, so that the risk of the third ear glue 70 on the third surface 4421 being excessively melted to affect the sealing effect is reduced. In some embodiments, the final melt temperature Th of the third ear glue 70 3 Melting point T with third ear glue 70 3 The difference between them is not less than 25 ℃, i.e. Th 3 -T 3 ≥25℃。
To facilitate understanding of the distribution of the tab adhesive on the surfaces of the first tab 34 of the first electrode assembly 30 and the second tab 44 of the second electrode assembly 40, the melting point T of the first tab adhesive 50 is set to 1 Greater than the melting point T of the second ear glue 60 2 Melting point T of third ear glue 70 3 Less than the melting point of the fourth electrode tab glue 80, taking the electrode assembly distribution case shown in fig. 9 as an example, along the thickness direction Z of the seal area 100a, the second electrode assembly 40 is located below the first electrode assembly 30 for the first electrode tab 34 connected with the second electrode tab 44, since the surface of the first electrode tab 34 for being connected with the separator 20 is affected by the thickness of the separator 20 connected with the first electrode assembly during seal, the surface of the first electrode tab 34 for being connected with the separator 20 should be the second surface 3422, that is, the second electrode tab glue 60 with a lower melting point should be provided, and the surface of the first electrode tab 34 facing away from the second electrode tab 44 should be the first surface 3421, that is, the first electrode tab glue 50 with a higher melting point should be provided. Similarly, the surface of the second tab 44 for connection to the spacer 20 should be the third surface 4421, i.e. the third ear glue 70 with a lower melting point should be provided, the surface of the second tab 44 facing away from the spacer 20 should be the fourth surface 4422, and the fourth surface 4422 should be provided with the fourth ear glue 80 with a higher melting point.
Similarly, when the electrochemical device 100 includes three or more electrode assemblies, one side close to the sealing surface of the case should be provided with a tab adhesive having a high melting point, and the other side should be provided with a tab adhesive having a low melting point along the sealing region 100a.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 8, the thickness t of the first tab adhesive 50 is 1 The second ear glue 60 has a thickness t 2 The method comprises the following steps: 1.5t 2 ≤t 1 ≤2t 2 The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the In this way, the risk that the first tab adhesive 50 is excessively melted and extruded due to the higher temperature can be reduced, which is beneficial to improving the sealing effect of the sealing area.

Placing the assembled semi-finished product in an assembly fixture, placing a second electrode assembly on the separator with one side of the separator upwards, aligning edges, applying external force to compress, then covering the second electrode assembly with the pit surface of a second aluminum plastic film formed by pit punching downwards, arranging first tab glue on the surface of a tab of the second electrode assembly, which is close to the second aluminum plastic film, and arranging second tab glue on the surface of the tab of the second electrode assembly, which is away from the second aluminum plastic film (parameters such as specific melting point and the like are shown in Table 1). And leading the positive and negative electrode lugs of the first electrode assembly and the second electrode assembly out of the aluminum plastic film, and performing top sealing and side sealing in a hot pressing mode to obtain the assembled electrode assembly.
(7) And (5) filling liquid and packaging: electrolyte is respectively injected into each cavity, and the cavities are sealed after hot pressing, formation and degassing.
(8) And (3) series connection: and welding and connecting the negative electrode tab of the first electrode assembly and the positive electrode tab of the second electrode assembly together in a laser welding mode to realize series connection, and completing the assembly of the lithium ion battery.
Examples 2 to 5 and comparative examples
The only difference from example 1 is the selection of the first and second tab gels, see in particular table 1.
TABLE 1 electrochemical device packaging test sheet for first and second electrode tabs having different thickness and melting point
The test results obtained in examples 1-6 and comparative example in Table 1 were obtained by the following methods: the shell and the separator at one side of the packaging area are clamped by the clamp through the multifunctional stripping equipment, then the shell and the separator are pulled, so that the first packaging part or the second packaging part of the shell is separated from the packaging area of the separator, the situation of the adhesive position of the separated tab is observed, and if the color of the separated tab is milky white, the tab adhesive is well fused; if the local milky color is not obvious, the tab adhesive is not fused well. As can be seen from a comparison of examples 1-6 in Table 1 with the comparative example, when T 1 -T 2 And when the temperature is more than or equal to 7 ℃, the sealing area 100a of the electrochemical device 100 is well fused, which indicates that when the melting point of the first tab adhesive is greater than that of the second tab adhesive, the second tab adhesive 60 can be well fused, so that the packaging reliability and safety of the electrochemical device are improved.
