Abstract

The present application discloses a rechargeable lithium battery apparatus, comprising a battery cell in a cylindrical shape, a positive electrode of the battery cell has a protection circuit board arranged, wherein, between the positive electrode of the battery cell in the cylindrical shape and a positive electrode of the protection circuit board, there is a metal screw connection structure arranged, acting as the positive electrode of the protection circuit board, connecting electrically to the positive electrode of the battery cell. The rechargeable lithium battery apparatus of the present application, due to adopting a metal screw connection structure arranged on a circuit board at the positive electrode of the battery, corresponding to the positive electrode of the battery cell, achieves a positive electrode cap and a solid connection between the protection circuit board and the battery cell, forming a brand new lithium battery apparatus.

Claims (9)

1. A rechargeable lithium battery apparatus, comprising a battery cell in a cylindrical shape, a positive electrode of the battery cell has a protection circuit board arranged; wherein, between the positive electrode of the battery cell in the cylindrical shape and a positive electrode of the protection circuit board, a metal screw connection structure is arranged; acting as the positive electrode of the protection circuit board, the metal screw connection structure connects electrically to the positive electrode of the battery cell, wherein an arrangement of the metal screw connection structure comprises a first metal connection piece, welded and fixed to the positive electrode of the protection circuit board; and a second metal connection piece, welded and fixed to the positive electrode of the battery cell; the first metal connection piece and the second metal connection piece have a thread arranged matching each other correspondingly, being able to be screwed together.

2. The rechargeable lithium battery apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first metal connection piece is a nut having an internal thread; the second metal connection piece is a bolt having an external thread.

3. The rechargeable lithium battery apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the second metal connection piece further comprises a metal circular plate arranged below the bolt, applied to welding and fixing a terminal surface of the positive electrode of the battery cell.

4. The rechargeable lithium battery apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a negative electrode of the protection circuit board is arranged on a side of the protection circuit board facing the battery cell and at a position near an edge, while electrically connecting to a negative electrode area around a front end of the battery cell through a metal conductor.

5. The rechargeable lithium battery apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the metal conductor is achieved by a spring welded and fixed on the protection circuit board.

6. The rechargeable lithium battery apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein a plurality of insulating sheets are arranged between the positive electrode and the negative electrode at the front end of the battery cell and the protection circuit board.

7. The rechargeable lithium battery apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein an insulating glue is arranged and filled between the positive electrode and the negative electrode at the front end of the battery cell and the protection circuit board.

8. The rechargeable lithium battery apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein a steel cylinder is further arranged outside the battery cell and the protection circuit board, applied to sheathing and accommodating the battery cell and the protection circuit board.

9. The rechargeable lithium battery apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein a cylinder body length of the steel cylinder is consistent with a combination length of the battery cell and the protection circuit board, and a blocking wall is arranged on an end side of the positive electrode; between the steel cylinder and an outer wall of the battery cell, an insulating adhesive film is arranged.
