Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application is a continuation application of PCT International Application No. PCT/CN2023/105201, filed on Jun. 30, 2023, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD This application relates to the technical field of energy storage, and in particular, to an electrode plate, an electrochemical device, and an electrical device. BACKGROUND For the battery with a multi-tab structure, the current can be led out through a plurality of tabs to greatly shorten a conduction path of electrons in an electrode plate, so that it can meets the requirement of high rate usage of the electrical devices, such as mobile phones, laptops, unmanned aerial vehicles, electric tools, electric vehicles, and electric two-wheelers, and therefore, has been widely used. SUMMARY However, the inventor of this application finds through research that existing electrode plates with a multi-tab structure are prone to bending and inward insertion during the production and winding, thereby affecting the production yield rate severely. In addition, the batteries with a multi-tab structure pose higher risk of tearing the tab during an impact caused by factors such as dropping, thereby affecting the normal use of electrical device. In view of the above situation, this application provides an electrode plate, an electrochemical device, and an electrical device to alleviate the phenomena of bending and inward insertion of the tab during production, improve the production yield rate of the electrochemical device, reduce the risk of tearing the tab at the root of the tab during an impact caused by factors such as dropping of the electrochemical device, and improve the reliability of the electrochemical device in use. According to a first aspect, this application provides an electrode plate. The electrode plate includes a base portion and a tab. Along a length direction of the electrode plate, the base portion includes a first edge connected to the tab. The tab includes an extension portion and a connecting portion. Along the length direction of the electrode plate, the extension portion includes a first side edge and a second side edge disposed opposite to each other. The connecting portion is located between the base portion and the extension portion. Along the length direction of the electrode plate, the connecting portion includes a third side edge and a fourth side edge disposed opposite to each other. The third side edge is connected to the first edge and the first side edge. The fourth side edge is connected to the first edge and the second side edge. A first connection point is formed between the third side edge and the first side edge. A second connection point is formed between the fourth side edge and the second side edge. A third connection point is formed between the third side edge and the first edge. A fourth connection point is formed between the fourth side edge and the first edge. When viewed along a thickness direction of the tab, an extension line of the first side edge intersects the first edge at a first intersection point. The first intersection point is located between the third connection point and the fourth connection point. An angle between a ray from the first intersection point to the first connection point and a ray from the first intersection point to the fourth connection point is α1, satisfying: α1<90°. When viewed along the thickness direction of the tab, with a line of connection from the first connection point to the third connection point serving as a first reference line, the connecting portion includes a first reinforcing region. The first reinforcing region is defined by the third side edge and the first reference line. By setting the angle to satisfy α1<90°, the first side edge of the tab is tilted. By disposing the first reinforcing region between the third side edge and the first reference line, the first-side swing stiffness and torsional stiffness of the tab are improved, thereby suppressing the bending and inward insertion of the tab during production and winding, improving the production yield rate of the electrochemical device, and also reducing the risk of tearing the tab at the root of the tab during an impact caused by factors such as dropping of the electrochemical device, and consequently improving the reliability of the electrochemical device in use. In some embodiments, the third side edge includes a fifth side edge and a sixth side edge. The fifth side edge is connected to the first side edge. The sixth side edge is connected to the first edge. An angle between the fifth side edge and the sixth side edge is δ1, satisfying 90°<δ1<180°. In this way, the first reinforcing region assumes an obtuse-angle structure, thereby improving the swing stiffness and torsional stiffness of the tab, further suppressing the bending and inward insertion of the tab during production and winding, improving the production yield
