The present application provides an end cover assembly, a secondary battery, a battery module, a device, a liquid-injection method and a device thereof. The end cover assembly for the secondary battery includes: an end cover, provided with a through hole for injecting electrolyte, and including a connecting portion; a sealing assembly, configured to seal the through hole; a locking-fixing member, configured to be movable relative to the connecting portion in a radial direction of the through hole, so as to realize switching between a locked state and an unlocked state of the locking-fixing member and the connecting portion. In the locked state, the locking-fixing member presses against the sealing assembly to restrict the end cover to be separated from the sealing assembly; in the unlocked state, the end cover and the sealing assembly are separable to allow electrolyte to be injected from the through hole.

A battery cell closure strip for a battery cell of prismatic or of pouch-type design is disclosed. A main body has a degassing duct which extends along the vertical axis of the battery cell closure strip from an inner side of the battery cell closure strip to the outer side of the battery cell closure strip. The degassing duct is closed by means of a media-operated sealing element during regular operation of the battery cell closure strip. The sealing element opens the degassing duct when a predefined limit pressure of the battery cell is reached. An emergency degassing duct has an opening cross section through which media can flow that is at least 10 times larger than that of the degassing duct and which is closed by a bursting valve which opens the emergency degassing duct when a bursting pressure is reached or exceeded.

A miniature electrochemical cell of a primary or secondary chemistry with a total volume that is less than 0.5 cc is described. The cell has a casing comprising an annular sidewall supported on a lower plate opposite an upper lid. The lid has a sealed electrolyte fill port that is axially aligned with an annulus residing between the inner surface of the annular sidewall and the electrode assembly. The fill port axially aligned with the annulus between the electrode assembly and the casing sidewall allows the casing to be filled with electrolyte using a vacuum filling process so that activating electrolyte readily wets the anode and cathode active materials and the intermediate separator.
