Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, as shown in Patent Document 1, in the battery module in which the sensor device is arranged on the upper surface of the battery cell stack, the height dimension may be greatly increased.
In particular, in a battery module using a bus bar having an upwardly protruding bent portion in the middle of the stacking direction of the battery cells in order to relieve the stress acting on the battery cells due to expansion, the height dimension may be greatly increased, and with The insertion and removal of the connector connected to the sensor device may also be hindered by the bent part of the bus bar

Abstract

The present invention provides a battery module capable of securing a connector insertion / removal space and suppressing a height dimension. The battery module includes a battery cell stack formed by stacking a plurality of battery cells, a plurality of bus bars connecting terminals of adjacent battery cells to each other, and a sensor device that detects the voltage of each battery cell. The sensor device is disposed above the plurality of bus bars disposed on the upper surface of the battery cell stack when viewed in the width direction, and includes a voltage detection connector having a connection portion in the width direction. Each bus bar has a bent portion that protrudes upward between the connected battery cells. The connector for voltage detection is disposed between the bent portions of the bus bars adjacent in the stacking direction, and the lower surface of the connector for voltage detection is provided at a position lower than the upper portion of the bent portion in the vertical direction.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a battery module mounted in an electric vehicle or the like. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, battery modules have been mounted on electric vehicles and the like. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a battery module including a battery cell stack formed by stacking a plurality of battery cells, and a sensor device that detects the voltage of each battery cell. [0003] prior art literature [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2016-072181 [0005] However, as shown in Patent Document 1, in the battery module in which the sensor device is arranged on the upper surface of the battery cell stack, the height dimension may be greatly increased. In particular, in a battery module to which a bus bar having a bent portion protruding upward in the middle portion in the stacking direction of the battery cells is applied in order to alleviate the stress that acts due to the expansion of the...
