The term "and / or" used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.
[0035] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a circuit connection device 100, which includes a first component 1 and a second component 2 stacked in sequence along a first direction X. The first component 1 and the second component 2 are connected to each other, and the first component 1 and the second component 2 can be close to or away from each other along the first direction X; when the circuit connection device 100 is placed in a battery module, the battery cells of the battery module expand and squeeze the circuit connection device 100, so that the first component 1 and the second component 2 are close to each other.
[0036] In some embodiments, the first component 1 and the second component 2 are both in sheet shape.
[0037] In some embodiments, the first member 1 and the second member 2 are connected by a snap-fit, and the snap-fit limits the distance between the first member 1 and the second member 2, and the first member 1 and the second member 2 can move closer to or away from each other within the limited distance.
[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, for the first component 1, the first component 1 is conductive, and includes a first section 11, a second section 12, and a third section 13. The first section 11 and the second section 12 are arranged at intervals, and the third section 13 is connected to the first section 11 and the second section 12, respectively. The first section 11, the second section 12, and the third section 13 are all conductors, which are used to be electrically connected to the battery cells of the battery module. When the third section 13 is broken, the charging circuit of the battery cell can be disconnected, thereby reducing the thermal runaway of the battery cell and ensuring the safety of the battery module and the people around it.

[0044] When viewed along the first direction X, the boss 21 and the third section 13 at least partially overlap, so that when the boss 21 moves relative to the third section 13 along the first direction X and approaches the third section 13, it can contact the third section 13, thereby breaking the third section 13. When the first component 1 and the second component 2 are not subjected to external force, a gap may be provided between the boss 21 and the third section 13 to reduce the possibility of the boss 21 squeezing the third section 13 due to vibration or thermal expansion reaction, thereby reducing the probability of unnecessary erroneous circuit breaking and increasing reliability.

The third section 13 is at least partially exposed in the first through hole 141 / 151. When viewed along the first direction X, the boss 21 is located in the first through hole 141 / 151, and the first through hole 141 / 151 is used for the boss 21 to pass through and contact the third section 13 when the first member 1 is subjected to a force acting toward the second member 2, and / or when the second member 2 is subjected to a force acting toward the first member 1. Optionally, the inner diameter of the first through hole 141 / 151 is greater than or equal to the width of the third section 13.
