A cell of Li-ion battery comprises a plurality of anodes and cathodes of rectangular shape, each one having a current collector tab protruding from a side of the rectangular shape. Each cathode is wrapped in a separator sheet and the cathodes and anodes are stacked on each other. A Li-ion battery comprises a stack of cells and at least four bus bar posts, each bus bar post being positioned in front of one tab in order to create an electrical connection between the tab and the bus bar post. A method for disassembling the battery comprises—holding the anode bus bar posts, and simultaneously pulling the cathode bus bar posts in the direction of the cathode tab protrusions, pulling the anode bus bar posts in the direction of the anode tab protrusions, separating the cathodes from the separators, and separating electrodes from the bus bar posts.

A cell has at least one pole core. Each pole core has a plurality of tabs. The plurality of tabs are converged and then soldered to a cover plate of a battery to form a solder joint. When the pole core is parallel to the cover plate before convergence or after the pole core is unfolded, a spacing between the pole core and the solder joint is determined by a thickness of the pole core, a tab bending angle of the tab, and a width of a tab protection plate at the solder joint.

An energy storage module, particularly a solid state battery, an energy storage system, a vehicle and a method for measuring an electrical voltage on an energy storage module or on an energy storage system is based on two stacked and series-connected energy storage cells, each have an anode layer and a cathode layer. A contact, which is electrically connected to an anode layer located within the stack of a first energy storage cell and to a cathode layer located within the stack of a second energy storage cell, which is adjacent to the first energy storage cell, leads out of the stack such that at least one contact can be contacted from outside the stack.

In one embodiment, a battery includes an exterior unit, an electrode group, an electrode terminal, tab bundles and a lead. The electrode group is housed in an interior cavity of the exterior unit, and the electrode terminal is exposed to an outside. Current collecting tabs are stacked in the thickness direction of the electrode group in each of the tab bundles having the same polarity. The tab bundles protrude from the electrode group to the same side in the length direction of the electrode group. The lead establishes an electric connection between the respective tab bundles and the electrode terminal. The tab bundles are bonded to the lead at positions deviated from one another in the thickness direction, and are mounted on the lead from the same side in the thickness direction.
