[0088] Figure 4The figure is a schematic diagram of the exploded structure of the battery cell 21 provided in some embodiments of the present application. The battery cell 21 refers to the smallest unit that constitutes the battery device 10. Figure 4 The battery cell 21 includes an end cover 211 , a shell 212 and an electrode assembly 213 .

[0089] The end cap 211 refers to a component that covers the opening of the shell 212 to isolate the internal environment of the battery cell 21 from the external environment. Without limitation, the shape of the end cap 211 can be adapted to the shape of the shell 212 to match the shell 212. Optionally, the end cap 211 can be made of a material with a certain hardness and strength (such as aluminum alloy). In this way, the end cap 211 is less likely to deform when squeezed or collided, so that the battery cell 21 can have higher structural strength and improved safety performance. Functional components such as electrode terminals 214 can be provided on the end cap 211.

For example, the insulating member may be made of plastic, rubber, or the like.

[0090] The housing 212 is a component that cooperates with the end cap 211 to form the internal environment of the battery cell 21.

An opening can be provided in the housing 212, and the end cap 211 can be placed over the opening to form the internal environment of the battery cell 21. Alternatively, the end cap 211 and the housing 212 can be integrated. Specifically, the end cap 211 and the housing 212 can form a common connection surface before other components are inserted into the housing. When the interior of the housing 212 is to be enclosed, the end cap 211 is placed over the housing 212. The housing 212 can be of various shapes and sizes, such as a rectangular parallelepiped, a cylinder, or a hexagonal prism.

The coil assembly 42 includes a first coil 4211 and a second coil 4221 that can respectively generate a magnetic field after being energized. The first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 are arranged along a first direction X. The magnet assembly 43 is arranged in the accommodation cavity. The magnet assembly 43 includes at least one electrically conductive connecting piece 431 arranged between the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 along the first direction X. The electrically conductive connecting piece 431 is configured to move along the first direction X under the action of a magnetic field of at least one of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 in an energized state. The axis of at least one of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 is the same as the first direction X. The plurality of static contacts includes at least a first static contact 441 electrically connected to the battery cell 21. The electrically conductive connecting piece 431 is configured to maintain electrical connection with the first static contact 441 within a range of movement along the first direction X.

[0093] For the convenience of description, in some embodiments of the present application, only one electrically conductive connecting piece 431 is exemplified. Specifically, the number of at least one battery cell 21 can be multiple. The multiple battery cells 21 form a battery cell assembly 20 and are electrically connected to the relay 40 through at least one battery cell 21, thereby increasing the output voltage or output current of the battery device 10. Alternatively, the relay 40 can be arranged inside the box 30 and directly connected to the battery cell 21 through an electrically conductive connecting piece, such as an electrically conductive tab. Alternatively, the relay 40 can be arranged inside the box 30 and electrically connected to the battery cell 21 through a fuse.

[0094] The shell 41 comprises a shell body 411 and a bottom plate 412. The shell body 411 is provided with an accommodating cavity with one end opening. The bottom plate 412 is connected to the shell body 411 and is used to block the opening. Optionally, the shell 41 can be made of insulating material, so that the shell 41 has good insulation and can electrically isolate the internal components of the relay 40 from the external components. The shell body 411 is also provided with a first coil connecting port 4111 and a second coil connecting port 4112. The first coil connecting port 4111 is used for the first wire to pass through. The two ends of the first wire are electrically connected to the battery monomer 21 and the first coil 4211 respectively, so as to supply power to the first coil 4211. The second coil connecting port 4112 is used for the second wire to pass through. The two ends of the second wire are electrically connected to the battery monomer 21 and the second coil 4221 respectively, so as to supply power to the second coil 4221.

[0095] The coil assembly 42 at least comprises the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221. The first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 respectively have an axial direction, and are in the same straight line. The axial direction of the first coil 4211 and the axial direction of the second coil 4221 are the same, and are collectively referred to as the coil axial direction, and the coil axial direction is the same as the first direction X. The first coil 4211 can generate a magnetic field along the first direction X in the energized state, so as to drive the conductive connecting piece 431 to move along the first direction X. The second coil 4221 can generate a magnetic field along the first direction X in the energized state, so as to drive the conductive connecting piece 431 to move along the first direction X.

[0096] Part of the structure in the magnet assembly 43 has magnetism. The part of the structure with magnetism is driven by the magnetic field of the first coil 4211 and / or the second coil 4221, so as to move along the first direction X. Optionally, the conductive connecting piece 431 itself has magnetism, so as to be directly driven under the action of the magnetic force of the first coil 4211 and / or the second coil 4221. Alternatively, the conductive connecting piece 431 has no magnetism, and the non-magnetic conductive connecting piece 431 is connected with a magnetic part in the magnet assembly 43. The magnetic part is directly driven under the action of the magnetic force of the first coil 4211 and / or the second coil 4221, and drives the conductive connecting piece 431 to move together. For the convenience of description, only the conductive connecting piece 431 with magnetism and capable of being directly driven under the action of the magnetic force of the first coil 4211 and / or the second coil 4221 is described in this application.

[0097] The plurality of static contacts can be respectively used for electrically connecting the conductive connecting piece 431 and the external conductive part, and realizing the conduction of the relay 40. Among them, the plurality of static contacts at least comprises a first static contact 441. The first static contact 441 always maintains electrical connection with the conductive connecting piece 431, and the first static contact 441 is electrically connected with the battery monomer 21.

[0098] According to the battery device 10 of the present application, the conductive connecting piece 431 can be electrically connected with the battery cell 21 through the first stationary contact 441 at all times within the moving range along the first direction X, and can be electrically connected with other stationary contacts during the movement, so as to realize the conduction of the circuit, and the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 jointly drive the conductive connecting piece 431 to move along the first direction X, which can improve the moving range of the conductive connecting piece 431 along the first direction X, and compared with driving the conductive connecting piece 431 to move the same range by using a single coil, the power and size of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 can be effectively reduced, so as to reduce the size of the relay 40, and further reduce the size of the battery device 10.

[0099] In combination Figures 5 to 13 As shown in the drawings, in some embodiments of the present application, the plurality of stationary contacts further includes a second stationary contact 442 and a third stationary contact 443, and the conductive connecting piece 431 has a first position in the state that the first coil 4211 is not powered and the second coil 4221 is powered, and when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the first position, the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected with the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 at the same time.

[0100] Specifically, in the state that the first coil 4211 is not powered and the second coil 4221 is powered, that is, the magnet assembly 43 is not affected by the magnetic field force of the first coil 4211, the magnet assembly 43 moves to the first position under the action of the magnetic field force of the second coil 4221, as shown in the drawings. Figure 10 When the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the first position, the conductive connecting piece 431 is also electrically connected with the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 at the same time. At this time, the first stationary contact 441 serves as the input end of the circuit, and the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 serve as the output end of the circuit respectively, so as to realize the current shunt of the circuit, and further reduce the generation of arc when the relay 40 is broken, reduce the wear or failure of the stationary contact, and improve the working reliability of the battery device 10.

[0101] When the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the first position, the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected with the battery cell 21 through the first stationary contact 441, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected with the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 at the same time. At this time, the first stationary contact 441 serves as the input end of the circuit, and the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 serve as the output end of the circuit respectively, so as to realize the current shunt of the circuit, and further reduce the generation of arc when the relay 40 is broken, reduce the wear or failure of the stationary contact, and improve the working reliability of the battery device 10.

[0102] In combination Figures 5 to 13As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 are spaced apart along the second direction Y, and the at least partially conductive connecting piece 431 is arranged between the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 along the second direction Y, and the first direction X and the second direction Y are intersected.

[0103] Specifically, when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the first position, in order to facilitate the conductive connecting piece 431 to be electrically connected with the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 respectively, the conductive connecting piece 431 is arranged between the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 along the second direction Y, so that the conductive connecting piece 431 can abut against and be electrically connected with the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 along the second direction Y respectively. Optionally, the second direction Y can be the width direction of the shell 41.

[0104] By arranging the at least partially conductive connecting piece 431 between the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 along the second direction Y, it is facilitated that the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected with the second stationary contact 442 and the third stationary contact 443 simultaneously when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the first position.

[0105] In combination Figures 5 to 13 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the conductive connecting piece 431 also has a second position in a state that the first coil 4211 is energized and the second coil 4221 is not energized, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected with the second stationary contact 442 when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the second position.

[0106] Specifically, in the state that the first coil 4211 is energized and the second coil 4221 is not energized, that is, the magnet assembly 43 is not subjected to the magnetic field force of the second coil 4221, the magnet assembly 43 moves to the second position under the action of the magnetic field force of the first coil 4211, as shown in FIG. 4B. Figure 11 As shown, when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the second position, the conductive connecting piece is electrically connected with the second stationary contact 442.

[0107] In the state that the first coil 4211 is energized and the second coil 4221 is not energized, the conductive connecting piece 431 can move to the second position with the largest interval size from the first position under the action of the attractive force or the repulsive force generated by the first coil 4211, and be electrically connected with the second stationary contact 442 at the second position, so as to conduct the circuit through the first stationary contact 441 and the second stationary contact 442.

[0108] In combination Figures 5 to 13As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the second stationary contact 442 is provided with a first connecting end 4421 and a second connecting end 4422 on the side facing the magnet assembly 43, the first connecting end 4421 and the second connecting end 4422 are spaced apart and electrically connected along the first direction X, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected to the first connecting end 4421 when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the first position, and is electrically connected to the second connecting end 4422 when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the second position.

[0109] Specifically, the side of the second stationary contact 442 away from the magnet assembly 43 is electrically connected to the external conductive member, and the side of the second stationary contact 442 facing the magnet assembly 43 is electrically connected to the conductive connecting piece. To facilitate the conductive connecting piece 431 to be electrically connected to the second stationary contact 442 in the first position and the second position respectively, the side of the second stationary contact 442 facing the magnet assembly 43 is provided with a first connecting end 4421 and a second connecting end 4422, the first connecting end 4421 and the second connecting end 4422 are respectively protruding from the end face of the second stationary contact 442 and form a protruding structure.

[0110] By providing the side of the second stationary contact 442 facing the magnet assembly 43 with a first connecting end 4421 and a second connecting end 4422, the conductive connecting piece 431 can be electrically connected to the second stationary contact 442 through the first connecting end 4421 when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the first position, and can be electrically connected to the second stationary contact 442 through the second connecting end 4422 when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the second position, so that the conductive connecting piece 431 can be electrically connected to the second stationary contact 442 in the first position or the second position.

[0111] In combination with Figures 5 to 13 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the side of the second stationary contact 442 away from the magnet assembly 43 is provided with a first output end 4423, the first output end 4423 is configured to be electrically connected to the external conductive member, and the first output end 4423, the first connecting end 4421 and the second connecting end 4422 are integrally formed.

[0112] Specifically, the side of the second stationary contact 442 away from the magnet assembly 43 extends to the outside of the housing 41 and forms a first output end 4423, and the first output end 4423 is used for electrical connection with the external conductive member. The first output end 4423, the first connecting end 4421 and the second connecting end 4422 are integrally formed. In some other embodiments of the present application, two spaced stationary contacts can also be connected to the conductive member, wherein at least one stationary contact is detachably connected to the conductive member, so that when the two stationary contacts are connected to the conductive member respectively, the second stationary contact 442 is formed, and the second stationary contact 442 has two connecting ends.

[0113] By integrally forming the first output end 4423, the first connecting end 4421 and the second connecting end 4422, the conductive connecting piece 431 can be electrically connected with the second static contact 442 in the first position or the second position, and the number of static contacts can be reduced.

[0114] In combination Figures 5 to 13 As shown in the drawings, in some embodiments of the present application, the conductive connecting piece 431 is located on one side of the second static contact 442 along a third direction Z, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is configured to abut against the first connecting end 4421 along the second direction Y or the third direction Z within a movement range along the first direction X, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is further configured to abut against the second connecting end 4422 along the second direction Y or the third direction Z within the movement range along the first direction X, and the first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other.

[0115] Specifically, in order to facilitate the abutment and electrical connection between the conductive connecting piece 431 and the first connecting end 4421, the conductive connecting piece 431 can abut against the first connecting end 4421 along the second direction Y or the third direction Z during movement. In order to facilitate the abutment and electrical connection between the conductive connecting piece 431 and the second connecting end 4422, the conductive connecting piece 431 can abut against the second connecting end 4422 along the second direction Y or the third direction Z during movement. Optionally, the second direction Y can be the width direction of the shell 41, and the third direction Z can be the height direction of the shell 41.

[0116] The conductive connecting piece 431 can abut against the first connecting end 4421 along the second direction Y or the third direction Z, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the conductive connecting piece 431 and the second static contact 442 in the first position. The conductive connecting piece 431 can abut against the second connecting end 4422 along the second direction Y or the third direction Z, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the conductive connecting piece 431 and the second static contact 442 in the second position.

[0117] In combination Figures 5 to 13 As shown in the drawings, in some embodiments of the present application, the magnetic field directions of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 are the same, and the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 are arranged along the first direction X, respectively.

[0118] Specifically, the magnetic field directions of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 are the same, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is arranged between the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 along the first direction X. When the magnetic field direction of the conductive connecting piece 431 is the same as the magnetic field directions of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221, the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 respectively generate an attractive force on the conductive connecting piece 431 after being powered on. When the magnetic field direction of the conductive connecting piece 431 is opposite to the magnetic field directions of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221, the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 respectively generate a repulsive force on the conductive connecting piece 431 after being powered on. Therefore, regardless of the magnetic field direction of the conductive connecting piece 431, the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 respectively generate an action force in opposite directions on the conductive connecting piece 431 after being powered on, and the conductive connecting piece 431 moves along the first direction X under the action of the magnetic field force.

[0119] When the first coil 4211 is not powered on and the second coil 4221 is powered on, the conductive connecting piece 431 moves to the first position under the action of the magnetic field of the second coil 4221. Correspondingly, when the first coil 4211 is powered on and the second coil 4221 is not powered on, the conductive connecting piece 431 moves to a position with the largest interval size from the first position, i.e., the second position, under the action of the magnetic field of the first coil 4211. For the convenience of description, in the embodiments of the present application, only the case that the magnetic field direction of the conductive connecting piece 431 is the same as the magnetic field directions generated by the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 after being powered on is taken as an example for description, and the conductive connecting piece 431 can move towards the first coil 4211 under the action of the magnetic field of the first coil 4211, and the conductive connecting piece 431 can move towards the second coil 4221 under the action of the magnetic field of the second coil 4221.

[0120] By setting the magnetic field directions of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 to be the same, the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 respectively generate an attractive force in different directions on the magnet assembly 43 arranged therebetween after being powered on, or respectively generate a repulsive force in different directions on the magnet assembly 43 arranged therebetween, so as to drive the conductive connecting piece 431 in the magnet assembly 43 to move towards the first coil 4211 or towards the second coil 4221, thereby improving the moving range of the conductive connecting piece 431.

[0121] In combination Figures 5 to 13 As shown in the drawings, in some embodiments of the present application, the magnetic field strength of the first coil 4211 in the powered-on state is less than the magnetic field strength of the second coil 4221 in the powered-on state, and the conductive connecting piece 431 further has a third position in a simultaneous powered-on state of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected to the third stationary contact 443 when being in the third position.

[0122] Specifically, the magnetic field intensity in the energized state of the first coil 4211 is less than the magnetic field intensity in the energized state of the second coil 4221, that is, in the state that the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 are energized at the same time, the attractive force of the second coil 4221 on the conductive connecting piece 431 is greater than the attractive force of the first coil 4211 on the conductive connecting piece 431, therefore, the conductive connecting piece 431 can move to the third position under the joint action of the magnetic field forces of the two coils, as shown in FIG. 4C. When the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the third position, the interval size between the conductive connecting piece 431 and the second coil 4221 is less than the interval size between the conductive connecting piece 431 and the first coil 4211, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected with the third static contact 443. Figure 12 In some other embodiments of the present application, the magnetic field direction of the conductive connecting piece 431 is opposite to the magnetic field direction of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221, and the magnetic field intensity in the energized state of the first coil 4211 is less than the magnetic field intensity in the energized state of the second coil 4221, in the state that the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 are energized at the same time, the repulsive force of the second coil 4221 on the conductive connecting piece 431 is greater than the repulsive force of the first coil 4211 on the conductive connecting piece 431, therefore, the conductive connecting piece 431 can move to the third position under the joint action of the magnetic field forces of the two coils. When the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the third position, the interval size between the conductive connecting piece 431 and the second coil 4221 is greater than the interval size between the conductive connecting piece 431 and the first coil 4211, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected with the third static contact 443.

[0123] In the state that the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 are energized at the same time, since the magnetic field intensity in the energized state of the first coil 4211 is less than the magnetic field intensity in the energized state of the second coil 4221, the conductive connecting piece 431 moves to the position close to the second coil 4221, that is, the third position, under the joint action of the attractive forces of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221, or the conductive connecting piece 431 moves to the position close to the first coil 4211, that is, the third position, under the joint action of the repulsive forces of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221, and the conductive connecting piece is electrically connected with the third static contact 443 in the third position, thereby connecting the circuit through the first static contact 441 and the third static contact 443.

[0124] In combination with Figures 5 to 13As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the third stationary contact 443 is provided with a third connecting end 4431 and a fourth connecting end 4432 on the side facing the magnet assembly 43, the third connecting end 4431 and the fourth connecting end 4432 are spaced apart along the first direction X and electrically connected, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is electrically connected to the third connecting end 4431 when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the first position, and is electrically connected to the fourth connecting end 4432 when the conductive connecting piece 431 is in the third position.

[0128] Specifically, the side of the third stationary contact 443 away from the magnet assembly 43 extends to the outside of the housing 41 and forms a second output end 4433, and the second output end 4433 is used for electrically connecting the external conductive member. Among them, the second output end 4433, the third connecting end 4431 and the fourth connecting end 4432 are integrally formed. In some other embodiments of the present application, two spaced stationary contacts can also be connected to the conductive member, wherein at least one stationary contact is detachably connected to the conductive member, so that when the two stationary contacts are connected to the conductive member respectively, the third stationary contact 443 is formed, and the third stationary contact 443 has two connecting ends.

[0129] By integrally forming the second output end 4433, the third connecting end 4431 and the fourth connecting end 4432, the conductive connecting piece 431 can be electrically connected with the third static contact 443 in the first position or the third position, and the number of static contacts can be reduced.

The conductive connecting piece 431 can abut against the fourth connecting end 4432 along the second direction Y or the third direction Z, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the conductive connecting piece 431 and the third static contact 443 in the third position.

[0133] In combination Figures 5 to 13 As shown in some embodiments of the present application, the relay 40 further comprises an elastic member 432, at least part of the elastic member 432 is arranged on one side of the conductive connecting piece 431 facing the first coil 4211, and the conductive connecting piece 431 further has a fourth position in a natural state of the elastic member 432 when neither the first coil 4211 nor the second coil 4221 is energized, and the conductive connecting piece 431 is disconnected from the second static contact 442 and the third static contact 443 in the fourth position.

[0134] Specifically, the elastic member 432 is arranged on the side of the conductive connecting member 431 facing the first coil 4211 and abuts against the coil assembly 42 or other support members, thereby providing elastic force for the conductive connecting member 431. When at least one of the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 is in an energized state, the conductive connecting member 431 is moved in the first direction X under the magnetic field force, in the process, the elastic member 432 is stretched or compressed to generate elastic force, when the first coil 4211 and the second coil 4221 are both de-energized, the elastic member 432 restores to the natural state by its own elastic deformation and drives the conductive connecting member 431 to move to the fourth position, and when the conductive connecting member 431 is in the fourth position, it is disconnected from the second static contact 442 and the third static contact 443, respectively. The fourth position is arranged between the second position and the third position, as shown in Figure 13

[0135] When neither the first coil 4211 nor the second coil 4221 is energized, the conductive connecting member 431 is not subjected to the magnetic field force, the elastic member 432 arranged on the conductive connecting member 431 restores to the natural state, i.e., the state of not being compressed or stretched, the conductive connecting member 431 moves to the fourth position under the action of the elastic member 432, and when the conductive connecting member 431 is in the fourth position, it is disconnected from the second static contact 442 and the third static contact 443, respectively, i.e., the relay 40 cannot be used to conduct the circuit.

[0136] In combination with Figures 5 to 13 In some embodiments of the present application, the conductive connecting member 431 is configured to move towards the first coil 4211 when the first coil 4211 is energized and the second coil 4221 is not energized, and the conductive connecting member 431 is also configured to move towards the second coil 4221 when the first coil 4211 is not energized and the second coil 4221 is energized.

[0138] ​In the state that the first coil 4211 is energized and the second coil 4221 is not energized, the conductive connecting piece 431 moves towards the first coil 4211 under the action of the magnetic force of the first coil 4211, that is, the first coil 4211 generates an attractive force to the conductive connecting piece 431 in the energized state. In the state that the first coil 4211 is not energized and the second coil 4221 is energized, the conductive connecting piece 431 moves towards the second coil 4221 under the action of the magnetic force of the second coil 4221, that is, the second coil 4221 generates an attractive force to the conductive connecting piece 431 in the energized state.
