Among them, the first lead wire 14 leading out of the battery assembly can be connected to the second lead wire 18, or it can be set independently from the second lead wire 18.

[0129] In actual operation, the end of the first lead wire 14 away from the first bus bar 13 can be overlapped on the upper surface or side surface of the second bus bar 17 and welded thereto. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the end of the first lead wire 14 away from the first bus bar 13 can also be welded to the lower surface of the second bus bar 17. In some embodiments, the second lead wire 18 can also be welded to the first lead wire 14 and connected to the second bus bar 17.

In this way, there is no need to punch additional holes to lead out the first lead-out wire 14 separately, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the battery assembly and simplifying the manufacturing process of the battery assembly, which is conducive to the rapid mass production of laminated battery assemblies.
[0138] In some embodiments of the present application, at least one first lead-out wire 14 at one end away from the first bus bar 13 and at least one second lead-out wire 18 at one end away from the second bus bar 17 are led out from the same through hole S3. In this way, there is no need to punch additional holes to lead out the first lead-out wire 14 separately, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the battery assembly and simplifying the manufacturing process of the battery assembly, which is conducive to the rapid mass production of laminated battery assemblies.
[0139] In some embodiments, the opening S1 can be located between two adjacent second bus bars 17, and the ends of the two adjacent second bus bars 17 near the opening S1 are respectively connected to the second lead wire 18, and the other end of the first lead wire 14 led out from the opening S1 and the other end of the second lead wire 18 connected to the end of the second bus bar 17 near the opening S1 are led out from the same through hole S3, so that the first lead wire 14 and the two adjacent second lead wires 18 are led out from the same through hole S3 and can be introduced into the same junction box, further reducing the number of holes punched in the second substrate 102 and simplifying the battery assembly manufacturing process. Among them, the first lead wire 14 leading out of the battery assembly can be connected to the second lead wire 18, or it can be set independently from the second lead wire 18.

[0143] In some embodiments, the first sub-portion 141 and the first insulating layer 22 may extend in a straight line along a third direction, but not limited thereto, the first sub-portion 141 and the first insulating layer 22 may also extend in a straight line along other directions, or along a curve or a fold line to increase the applicability of scenarios.

In this way, the first lead-out line 14 is separated from the first battery 11 by the first sealing layer 23, and there is no need to additionally provide the first insulating layer 22.
[0145] like Fig.30 As shown, in some embodiments, the first sealing layer 23 may completely cover the first battery 11, the first bus bar 13 and the first sub-portion 141, and the side wall of the first sealing layer 23 may be substantially flush with the side wall of the first battery 11, or protrude outward from the side wall of the first battery 11.

In this way, there is no need to form an opening S1 in the first sealing layer 23, and the process of inserting the first lead wire 14 through the opening S1 is omitted. The first lead wire 14 is separated from the first battery 11 by the first sealing layer 23, and there is no need to set the first insulating layer 22, which further simplifies the manufacturing process of the battery assembly.
