Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A battery includes a shell, a core received in the shell and having first and second electrode tabs, and first and second protection components. Each of the first and second protection components includes two insulating layers and a conducting layer disposed between two insulating layers. The conducting layer of the first protection component defines a first end electrically connected to the first electrode tab and a second end configured as a free end. The conducting layer of the second protection component defines a first end electrically connected to the second electrode tab and a second end configured as a free end.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A battery, comprising: a shell; a core received in the shell and having first and second electrode tabs; and first and second protection components, each of the first and second protection components including two insulating layers and a conducting layer disposed between the two insulating layers, wherein the conducting layer of the first protection component defines a first end electrically connected to the first electrode tab and a second end configured as a free end, and the conducting layer of the second protection component defines a first end electrically connected to the second electrode tab and a second end configured as a free end. 2. The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the battery comprises one core, and the first and second protection components are disposed between the shell and the core. 3. The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the battery comprises at least two cores each connected with the first and second protection components, and the first and second protection components are disposed between the shell and the core, and/or between two adjacent cores. 4. The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the conducting layer is made of metal. 5. The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating layer is made of at least one selected from a group consisting of: an insulating ceramic material, an insulating coating material, and an insulating plastic material. 6. The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating layer and a separator of the core are made of the same material. 7. The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the first electrode tab is disposed at a first end of the core, and the second electrode tab is disposed at a second end of the core. 8. The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second electrode tabs are disposed at the same end of the core.
