[0004] The embodiment of the present application provides a battery pack, including a battery cell assembly, a shell, a front cover and an elastic member. The battery cell assembly is arranged in the shell. The front cover is connected to the shell. The elastic member and the battery cell assembly are arranged along a first direction.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0188] It should be noted that when an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a centrally disposed element at the same time. When an element is considered to be "disposed" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly disposed on the other element or there may be a centrally disposed element at the same time.

[0189] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those generally understood by those skilled in the art to which the present application belongs.

For example, in combination with the numerical description, perpendicularity may refer to the angle range between two straight lines being between 90°±10°, perpendicularity may also refer to the dihedral angle range between two planes being between 90°±10°, and perpendicularity may also refer to the angle range between a straight line and a plane being between 90°±10°. The two components described as "perpendicular" may not be absolute straight lines or planes, but may be roughly straight lines or planes. From a macroscopic point of view, the components can be considered to be "straight lines" or "planes" if the overall extension direction is a straight line or a plane.
