DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0025] As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the solid-state ultrasonic battery structure capable of removing lithium dendrites according to the present invention is a battery cell assembly for assembling a battery product. It includes two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2, each with an internal ultrasonic electrode body 1, and a separation assembly 3 connected to the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2. The separation assembly 3 drives the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 to tightly contact or separate from each other. When in the separated state, a separation gap 30 is formed between the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2. Each of the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 can be used as a positive electrode or a negative electrode, adjusted according to practical application.
[0026] To further improve the structure of the separation assembly 3, as shown in FIG. 3, the separation assembly 3 includes two micro electric pushrods 31, and the moving ends of the two micro electric pushrods 31 are respectively fixed to the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2. This allows individual or simultaneous driving of one or both ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 to achieve separation as needed. In practical applications, the width X of the separation gap 30 is 2-5 mm.
[0027] To keep the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 closely attached in the tightly contacted state, as shown in FIG. 4, compression springs 32 are arranged between each micro electric pushrod 31 and the corresponding ultrasonic solid electrolyte 2. In practical applications, the micro electric pushrod 31 may be a commonly available micro electric telescopic pushrod on the market, such as a screw-type electric telescopic pushrod, a hydraulic telescopic pushrod, or a pneumatic pushrod.
[0028] To package the above solutions into a complete battery design, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the invention further includes a battery housing 4 with a containing cavity 41 and a battery housing cover 5. The two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 and the separation assembly 3 are respectively installed in the containing cavity 41. The battery housing cover 5 is placed over the opening of the containing cavity 41. Two terminals 51, electrically connected to the two ultrasonic electrode bodies 1, are arranged on the battery housing cover 5. Specifically, the two ultrasonic electrode bodies 1 can be electrically connected to the two terminals 51 via wires.
[0029] To ensure that the movement of the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 during separation or close contact is smoother and more reliable without tilting, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, guiding protrusions 20 and guiding grooves 42 that fit in a sliding manner are arranged between the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 and the bottom of the containing cavity 41; similarly, guiding protrusions 20 and guiding grooves 42 that fit in a sliding manner are arranged between the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 and the battery housing cover 5. Specifically, each guiding protrusion 20 is arranged at both the upper and lower ends of the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2, and each guiding groove 42 is arranged at the bottom of the containing cavity 41 and the battery housing cover 5. Of course, the positions of the guiding protrusions 20 and guiding grooves 42 can be interchanged according to actual manufacturing needs.
[0030] To further facilitate the rapid detachment, falling, and discharge of lithium dendrites, as shown in FIG. 3, the battery housing cover 5 is provided with an air inlet 52 connected to the containing cavity 41, and the bottom of the battery housing 4 is provided with an air outlet slag-discharge port 43 connected to the containing cavity 41. Both the air inlet 52 and the air outlet slag-discharge port 43 have reusable sealing covers 6. A funnel-shaped guiding structure 44 is arranged between the bottom of the containing cavity 41 and the air outlet slag-discharge port 43. The sealing covers 6 are connected to the air inlet 52 and the air outlet slag-discharge port 43 via threaded connections. By connecting the air inlet 52 and the air outlet slag-discharge port 43 to a fan or blower, strong airflow can be introduced into the containing cavity 41, thereby promoting the more rapid detachment, falling, and discharge of lithium dendrites. Removing the dendrites in this way can greatly extend the service life of the battery. The funnel-shaped guiding structure 44 helps collect the fallen dendrites and guide them to the air outlet slag-discharge port 43 for discharge.
[0031] To keep the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 positioned inside the containing cavity 41 while not affecting the discharge of lithium dendrites, as shown in FIG. 3, a supporting frame 7 is arranged at the bottom of the containing cavity 41 to support the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2. The supporting frame 7 is provided with slag-through holes 71. For ease of manufacturing, the guiding grooves 42 at the bottom of the containing cavity 41 can be provided on the supporting frame 7.
[0032] As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, each ultrasonic electrode body 1 includes a housing 12 with a working chamber slot 11, a sliding block 13 arranged in the working chamber slot 11, and a cover shell 14 mounted over the working chamber slot 11. A permanent magnet 15 is provided on the sliding block 13, and an electromagnetic coil 16 that interacts with the permanent magnet 15 is arranged on the inner side of the cover shell 14. Elastic pieces 17 serving as buffers are arranged at both ends of the sliding block 13. Conductive coatings 18 are applied to the surfaces of the housing 12 and the cover shell 14. By applying the conductive coatings 18, when charging or discharging, the conductive coatings 18 of the ultrasonic electrode body 1 can be energized together with the ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2. The elastic pieces 17 provide a restoring force so that when the electromagnetic coil 16 drives the permanent magnet 15 and the sliding block 13 to move, the sliding block 13 can return to its original position, achieving reciprocating motion. Specifically, a limiting protrusion 111 is arranged in the working chamber slot 11 to prevent the sliding block 13 from leaving the working chamber slot 11. Operating principle: The external circuit supplies current to the electromagnetic coil 16 via a wire. When current passes through the electromagnetic coil 16, it generates a magnetic field, driving the permanent magnet 15 and the sliding block 13 to perform ultra-high-frequency reciprocating motion within the working chamber slot 11, thus generating ultra-high-frequency vibrations. These high-frequency vibrations propagate through solids and other media to form ultrasonic waves. The housing 12 and the cover shell 14 are both made of metal materials.
[0033] The power supply wires of the electromagnetic coil 16 pass through the cover shell 14 and are then led out from the side of the two terminals 51 to the outside of the battery housing 4, as shown in FIG. 2.
[0034] In addition to the above-mentioned internal ultrasonic components (i.e., composed of the sliding block 13, permanent magnet 15, electromagnetic coil 16, and elastic pieces 17), the present invention can also be implemented by replacing them with ultrasonic vibration motors, ultrasonic transducers, or other similar components.
[0035] To facilitate the control of the internal ultrasonic components of the two ultrasonic electrode bodies 1, an external circuit board module is generally arranged outside the battery housing 4. Using the control chip and control switches of the circuit board module, the internal ultrasonic components of the two ultrasonic electrode bodies can be uniformly controlled. Furthermore, the circuit board module can be equipped with a Bluetooth communication module or WiFi communication module, allowing the battery to be connected to the Internet. This enables monitoring and control of the battery using computers, smartphones, and other networked devices.
[0036] To further enhance battery safety and prevent short-circuiting, as shown in FIG. 3, a separator 100 is arranged between the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2. The separator 100 used in the present invention is the same as a traditional battery separator. A battery separator is a thin film-like sheet placed between the positive and negative electrodes. It is a very crucial component of the battery, having a direct impact on battery safety and cost. Its main function is to isolate the positive and negative electrodes so that electrons cannot pass freely, ensuring that only ions in the ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2 can pass freely between the positive and negative electrodes.
[0037] To enable the front and rear ends of the separator 100 to be sealingly assembled to the walls of the containing cavity 41, as shown in FIG. 2, the front and rear side edges of the separator 100 are provided with embedded edges 101. Correspondingly, the walls of the containing cavity 41 are provided with embedded grooves 45 that sealingly fit with the embedded edges 101. By using the embedded grooves 45 and embedded edges 101 to fit together, assembly is made easier, ensuring the separator 100 is securely fixed in position. This prevents short-circuits by separating the two ultrasonic solid electrolytes 2. To better ensure the sealing of the embedded grooves 45 and the embedded edges 101, an adhesive can be applied between them for bonding and curing.
