Using batteries as an energy source can obtain a current with stable voltage, stable current, long-term stable power supply, and little external influence. In addition, the battery has a simple structure, is easy to carry, and is easy to charge and discharge. It is not affected by external climate and temperature. The performance is stable and reliable, and it plays a great role in all aspects of modern social life.

[0003] Currently in the domestic battery market, batteries with high market applicability, such as ternary batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries, are extremely inapplicable in cold areas. The batteries have poor low-temperature resistance and are prone to crystallization and piercing the diaphragm at low temperatures, causing safety accidents and being unfavorable for users. For this reason, we propose a titanium niobate battery PACK structure. Summary of the invention

The battery cell connection adopts a series connection scheme, and a single large-capacity battery cell is used. The battery cell connection plate has collection and overcurrent functions. The battery cells are connected in series, and the battery cells can be charged and discharged through the set sockets. When packaging the module, the device adopts an open-mold plastic bracket to prepare it into an internal bracket form, with a front and rear double shell to package the battery cell module.
