图17A-17C是本发明一实施例的动力电池顶盖的剖视示意图。图17A-17C与图3A-3C的视角相同。其中,图17A是动力电池顶盖1600的剖视示意图,其中包括顶盖片510,电极组600、700和绝缘板800。其中,极柱组件600中包括第一极柱610、第一固定件620、第二极柱640、第一密封件630和第二密封件650;极柱组件700中包括第一极柱710、第一固定件720、第二极柱740、第一密封件730和第二密封件750。
图17B是图17A中包括极柱组件600的局部放大示意图。参考图17B所示,在正常使用时,第一极柱610沿方向D具有一定的高度,凹槽611位于第一极柱610的腰部,即凹槽611位于第一极柱610高度方向的中间部位。相应地,第一固定件620的凸出部622也位于第一固定件620的腰部,凸出部622的位置、大小和形状都与凹槽611相适应,以使凸出部622可以嵌入凹槽611中,使第一极柱610和第一固定件620形成紧密接触的结构。第一极柱610的第一极柱凸台612伸入第二极柱凸台641的凸台孔642中。
参考图17B所示,第一密封件630与图3B所示实施例中的第一密封件230的位置、大小、结构都类似。在图17B所示的实施例中,第二密封件650至少部分夹设在第二极柱640和第二表面S2之间。

图17C所示的极柱组件700中的第二密封件750与极柱组件600中的第二密封件650相似。极柱组件700与极柱组件600的区别在于,第一极柱710的极柱本体712沿着方向D分为两部分,分别是上部712a和下部712b,并且该两部分分别都具有凸台,因此,将第一极柱凸台713也分为两部分,分别是上凸台713a和下凸台713b。上部712a和下部712b可以是一体成型的,也可以是分离的两部分组合而成。其中,下凸台713b伸入至第二极柱740的第二极柱凸台741中的凸台孔742中。
在一些实施例中,当极柱组件700用于动力电池的负极时,第一极柱710的材质可以为铜铝复合材质,其中,上部712a的材质可以是铝材质或铝合金材 质,下部712b的材质可以是铜材质或铜合金材质;第二极柱740的材质可以是铜材质或铜合金材质。第一固定件720的材质可以是一种具有良好的耐腐蚀性能和耐高温性能的塑料材质。第一密封件730的材质可以是一种具有一定弹性的橡胶材质。
