DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0058] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely intended to explain the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
[0059] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs; the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of this application; the use of the terms "including," "comprising," "having" and "with" in the specification and claims herein are used to mean "including but not limited to"; the use of the terms "first," "second," "third," etc. are merely to distinguish one element from another, without necessarily implying a relative importance or a specific order.
[0060] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the technical terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish different objects, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number, specific order or primary and secondary relationship of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined with "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.
[0061] Reference herein to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearance of the phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment, nor is it necessarily independent or alternative embodiments to each other. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined in any suitable manner with other embodiments.
[0062] If not specifically stated, all embodiments and optional embodiments of the present application can be combined to form new technical solutions.
[0063] If not specifically stated, all technical features and optional technical features of the present application can be combined to form new technical solutions.
[0064] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the term "and / or" is only a description of the association relationship of the associated objects, which means that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B, which can represent the three cases of A alone, A and B together, and B alone. In addition, the character " / " herein generally represents an "or" relationship between the front and rear associated objects.
[0065] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the term "a plurality of" refers to two or more (including two), and similarly, "a plurality of groups" refers to two or more groups (including two groups), and "a plurality of pieces" refers to two or more pieces (including two pieces). The meaning of "several" is one or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0066] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the orientations or positional relationships indicated by the technical terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" and the like are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the embodiments of the present application and simplifying the description, and therefore cannot be understood as indicating or implying that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application.
[0067] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the technical terms "mounting", "connecting", "connecting", "fixing" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, can be fixedly connected, or can be detachably connected, or can be integrated; can be mechanically connected, or can be electrically connected; can be directly connected, or can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or can be the internal communication of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

When an element is referred to as "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element.
[0069] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the technical term "adjacent" means close in position. For example, there are three components A1, A2 and B, the distance between A1 and B is greater than the distance between A2 and B, then A2 is closer to B than A1, that is, A2 is adjacent to B, and B is also adjacent to A2. For example, when there are multiple C components, the multiple C components are C1, C2, …, C N , and B is adjacent to C2, and C2 is adjacent to B.
[0070] With the increasing application of battery devices, the demand for lightweight battery devices is also increasing, especially for mobile devices such as electric vehicles, ships, aircraft and other equipment, which require lightweight battery devices to reduce their load. Lightweight battery devices not only improve the endurance of the equipment, but also reduce energy consumption, and are more in line with the environmental protection trend.
[0071] In order to reduce the weight of the battery device and achieve lightweight of the battery device, some current battery devices use lightweight non-metal materials such as carbon fiber, glass fiber and the like to manufacture the box body of the battery device, such as using a non-metal box body, such as a basin body structure, as a lower box body or an upper box body of the box body, and connecting a beam body made of metal materials such as steel and aluminum alloy on the box body to increase the structural strength of the box body and facilitate the installation and use of the box body. However, due to the limitation of the material of the box body, the box body and the beam body are often connected by adhesion, resulting in relatively weak structural strength of the box body.
[0072] Based on the above considerations, in order to improve the problem that the box body made of non-metal materials and the beam body are often connected by adhesion, resulting in relatively weak structural strength of the box body, the embodiments of the present application provide a battery device, which divides the beam body into a first sub-beam and a second sub-beam in parallel, and sets a protruding portion on the main plate of the box body to increase the structural strength of the main plate, so that the first sub-beam and the second sub-beam clamp the protruding portion, and the first sub-beam, the protruding portion and the second sub-beam are fixedly connected by using a fixing structure, so that the formed beam body is firmly connected with the box body, thereby improving the strength of the connection between the beam body formed by the first sub-beam and the second sub-beam and the box body, and further improving the structural strength of the box body.
[0073] In the embodiments of the present application, the battery monomer can be a secondary battery, which refers to a battery monomer that can be activated by charging after discharging to continue to be used.
[0074] The battery monomer can be a lithium ion battery, a sodium ion battery, a sodium lithium ion battery, a lithium metal battery, a sodium metal battery, a lithium sulfur battery, a magnesium ion battery, a nickel hydrogen battery, a nickel cadmium battery, a lead-acid battery, etc. The embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.
[0075] The battery monomer usually contains a certain amount of gas. When the battery monomer is charged or discharged, the solution in the electrolyte will undergo gas generation or absorption reaction. The generation of these gases will cause the internal gas pressure of the battery monomer to rise, thereby causing the battery monomer to swell and deform. During the charging or discharging process of the battery monomer, the positive and negative electrode materials will undergo chemical reactions to form new compounds. These chemical reactions are accompanied by volume changes, which cause the volume of the materials inside the battery monomer to change, causing the battery to swell and deform. When the battery monomer is overcharged or overdischarged, it will cause the internal chemical reaction of the battery monomer to get out of control, generating too much gas or causing the structure of the electrode material to be destroyed, thereby causing the battery monomer to swell and deform. Charging or discharging the battery monomer in a high temperature environment will accelerate the internal chemical reaction, increase the generation of gas and the volume change. High temperature will also cause the internal substances of the battery monomer to swell, also causing the battery monomer to swell and deform.
[0076] The technical solutions described in the embodiments of the present application are applicable to various electric devices using battery cells, for example, electric vehicles, electric toys, electric tools, vehicles, ships and spacecraft, for example, spacecraft including airplanes, rockets, space shuttles and spacecraft, etc.
[0077] For the convenience of description, an electric device is provided in an embodiment of the present application, which is described by taking a vehicle as an example.
[0078] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A structural schematic diagram of a vehicle 11 is provided for some embodiments of the present application. The vehicle 11 can be a fuel vehicle, a gas vehicle or a new energy vehicle, and the new energy vehicle can be a pure electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle or an extended range vehicle, etc. The vehicle 11 is internally provided with a battery apparatus 200, which can be arranged at the bottom, head or tail of the vehicle 11. The battery apparatus 200 can be used for power supply of the vehicle 11, for example, the battery apparatus 200 can be used as an operating power source of the vehicle 11. The vehicle 11 can further include a controller 111 and a motor 112, and the controller 111 is used to control the battery apparatus 200 to supply power to the motor 112, for example, for the working power demand of the vehicle 11 during starting, navigation and driving.
[0079] In some embodiments, the battery apparatus 200 can not only be used as an operating power source of the vehicle 11, but also be used as a driving power source of the vehicle 11, instead of or partially instead of fuel or natural gas to provide driving power for the vehicle 11.

The battery apparatus 200 can include one or more battery cell assemblies for providing voltage and capacity.

[0151] The first limiting beam 411 protrudes from the body plate 31 through the opening 310 away from the second limiting beam 412, which means that the side of the first limiting beam 411 away from the second limiting beam 412 extends to the side of the body plate 31 away from the first plate body 3211 through the opening 310, so that the first limiting beam 411 can be positioned through the opening 310, and the size of the first limiting beam 411 in the height direction Z can be increased to improve the structural strength of the first limiting beam 411.
[0152] Through the above technical solution, the opening 310 is provided on the body plate 31, and the first limiting beam 411 protrudes from the body plate 31 through the opening 310 away from the second limiting beam 412, which can facilitate the positioning and assembly of the first limiting beam 411.
[0153] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 6 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the size of the opening 310 in the thickness direction of the limiting beam 41 is adapted to the size of the first limiting beam 411.

[0157] In some embodiments, the first limiting beam 411 can also not be provided with the opening 310 on the main body plate 31, and is directly supported on the main body plate 31. As an example, when the box body 30 is made, the first limiting beam 411 can also be directly embedded into the space formed by the main body plate 31, the second plate body 3212 and the first plate body 3211. As an example, when the box body 30 is made, the first limiting beam 411 can also be directly embedded into the space formed between the main body plate 31 and the first protruding part 321.
[0158] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 3 to 10 , the box body 20 comprises a protective plate 64 provided on the side of the main body plate 31 away from the first protruding part 321, and the first limiting beam 411 is arranged on the protective plate 64.
[0159] The protective plate 64 refers to a plate member that protects the side of the main body plate 31 away from the first protruding part 321. The protective plate 64 can be made of metal materials such as steel and aluminum alloy, or can be made of composite materials such as carbon fiber and glass fiber.
[0160] The first limiting beam 411 arranged on the protective plate 64 means that the end of the first limiting beam 411 away from the second limiting beam 412 is in contact or abutment with the protective plate 64.
[0161] Through the above technical solution, the protective plate 64 is provided, which can well protect the main body plate 31 of the box body 20, reduce the direct effect of external impact on the main body plate 31, and affect the safety of the battery monomer 300. At the same time, the existence of the protective plate 64 also provides additional support for the first limiting beam 411, further enhances the overall structural stability of the box body 20, and improves the anti-expansion performance.
[0162] In some embodiments, the protective plate 64 is arranged in a spaced manner with the main body plate 31, and in the case that the box body 20 is subjected to external impact, the protective plate 64 can have a larger deformation amount to reduce the impact on the main body plate 31, thereby effectively buffering the external force and protecting the safety of the main body plate 31 and the battery monomer 300.
[0163] In some embodiments, the protective plate 64 is connected to the first limiting beam 411 by adhesion.
[0164] The protective plate 64 and the first limiting beam 411 are connected by adhesion, which means that the end face of the end of the protective plate 64 and the first limiting beam 411 away from the second limiting beam 412 is connected by an adhesive to improve the connection strength between the first limiting beam 411 and the protective plate 64.

The rivet sleeve 5111 has a protruding flange 51111 on its periphery near the bolt head 51121. Under unidirectional tensile force, the bolt 5112 is stretched and the rivet sleeve 5111 is pushed, causing the rivet sleeve 5111 to deform and the rivet sleeve 5111 and bolt 5112 to engage, generating a permanent fastening force.

The protruding edge 51111 then embeds into the receiving groove 4111, allowing the deformed portion of the rivet sleeve 5111 to engage with the protruding edge 51111 to clamp the corresponding wall of the second limiting beam 412 and the first protrusion 321, thus fixing the corresponding wall of the second limiting beam 412 and the first protrusion 321 together. Additionally, when locking the bolt 5112, the bolt head 51121 of the bolt 5112 can also engage with the protruding edge 51111 to clamp the corresponding wall of the first limiting beam 411, thereby fixing the first limiting beam 411, the first protrusion 321, and the second limiting beam 412 together.

The bolt 5112 pulls the rivet sleeve 5111 to expand and deform outward, so that the expanded and deformed part of the rivet sleeve 5111 cooperates with the protrusion edge 51111 to clamp the wall panel of the first limiting beam 411 near the second limiting beam 412, the first protrusion 321, and the wall panel of the second limiting beam 412 near the first limiting beam 411, thereby connecting and fixing the first limiting beam 411, the first protrusion 321, and the second limiting beam 412.

[0283] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 19 and Figure 21 The first extension 332 is located in the middle region of the side wall plate 331 along the height direction Z.
[0284] The middle region of the side wall panel 331 along the height direction Z refers to the part of the side wall panel 331 after removing the two ends along the height direction Z, and also refers to the part of the side wall panel 331 between the two ends along the height direction Z.

[0286] The first extension 332 is located in the middle region of the side wall panel 331 along the height direction Z, and the strength of the side wall panel 331 can be better enhanced by the first extension 332.
[0287] By using the above technical solution, the first extension 332 is set in the middle region, which enhances the structural strength of the side wall panel 331, allows the first extension 332 to better support the side wall panel 331, and can also set the height of the side wall panel 331 higher, so that the space formed in the main body 30 can have a greater depth to accommodate the battery cell 300, which facilitates the assembly of the battery cell 300. The side wall panel 331 can also better support the side of the battery cell 300, and improve the anti-expansion performance of the box 20.
[0288] In some embodiments, when the first extension 332 is provided with a second extension 333, the first extension 332 is located in the middle region of the side wall plate 331 along the height direction Z. Then, the portion of the side wall plate 331 away from the main body plate 31 in the first extension 332 can serve as a side wall of the accommodating space 330 to better position the adapter beam 72.
[0289] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 21 and Figure 22 The first extension 332 is located in the middle region of the side wall panel 331 along the height direction Z. The side wall panel 331 extends outward from the side opposite to the main body panel 31 with a folded edge plate 336.

[0292] In some embodiments, the third extension 335 and the side wall panel 331 may be integrally formed to ensure a secure connection between the third extension 335 and the side wall panel 331 and facilitate manufacturing. In some embodiments, the third extension 335 and the side wall panel 331 may be manufactured separately and then fixedly connected by means of bonding, welding, or using a fixing structure 50.
[0293] The third extension 335 is located on the side of the first extension 332 that is close to the main body plate 31. In other words, the side wall plate 331 protrudes from the third extension 335 on the side away from the main body plate 31.
[0294] The second receiving space 702 refers to the space provided on the side frame beam 70. During assembly, the third extension 335 can be placed in the second receiving space 702. By providing the second receiving space 702 to accommodate the third extension 335, the connection area between the side frame beam 70 and the box body 30 can be increased, thereby improving the connection strength between the side frame beam 70 and the box body 30.
[0295] Through the above technical solution, the setting of the third extension 335 can not only improve the structural strength of the part where the side wall panel 331 is located and better support the side wall panel 331, but also the setting of the second receiving space 702 on the frame beam 70 can further increase the connection area between the box body 30 and the frame beam 70 and enhance the connection strength between the frame beam 70 and the box body 30.
[0296] In some embodiments, the third extension 335 may be provided as one to facilitate manufacturing. In some embodiments, the third extension 335 may also be provided as multiple third extensions 335, and the multiple third extensions 335 are spaced apart along the height direction Z to increase the connection area between the box body 30 and the side beam 70 and enhance the connection strength between the side beam 70 and the box body 30. Multiple refers to two or more.
[0297] In some embodiments, the third extension 335 can be fixedly connected to the inner surface of the second receiving space 702 by adhesives such as double-sided tape, structural adhesive, and curing adhesive, so as to fix the connection and improve the connection strength between the frame beam 70 and the box body 30.
[0298] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 19 , Figure 20 and Figure 22 The frame beam 70 extends toward the main body plate 31 and is provided with a receiving part 73, which is connected to the side of the main body plate 31 away from the protrusion 32.
[0299] The receiving part 73 refers to the part of the frame beam 70 that protrudes and extends towards the main body plate 31.

[0301] The connection between the receiving part 73 and the side of the main plate 31 opposite to the protrusion 32 means that the receiving part 73 and the side of the main plate 31 opposite to the protrusion 32 can be fixedly connected by means of bonding, welding, snap-fitting, or using a fixing structure 50.
[0302] By using the above technical solution, a receiving part 73 is set up and connected to the main body plate 31, which increases the connection area between the side beam 70 and the box body 30, improves the connection strength between the side beam 70 and the box body 30, and can better support the main body plate 31.
[0303] In some embodiments, the receiving part 73 can be bonded to the main body plate 31 by adhesives such as double-sided tape, structural adhesive, and curing adhesive, which makes the connection convenient.
[0304] In some embodiments, the main body plate 31 can also be connected to the main body plate 31 by a fixing structure 50 such as bolts or rivets.
[0305] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 19 , Figure 20 and Figure 22 The main plate 31 is recessed with a receiving groove 311 on the side of the protrusion 32 corresponding to the position of the receiving part 73, and the receiving part 73 is placed in the receiving groove 311.
[0306] The receiving groove 311 refers to the groove structure provided on the main body plate 31.
[0307] The fact that the main body plate 31 is recessed with a receiving groove 311 on the side of the protrusion 32 corresponding to the receiving part 73 means that the receiving groove 311 on the main body plate 31 is located at the position corresponding to the receiving part 73. In other words, the receiving groove 311 is located on the side of the main body near the side frame beam 70, and it is a groove structure formed by the main body recessing into the box 20.
[0308] By providing the above technical solution, a receiving groove 311 is provided on the main body plate 31 to accommodate the receiving part 73, which facilitates the installation and fixing of the receiving part 73. Moreover, providing a receiving groove 311 on the main body plate 31 can also improve the structural strength of the main body plate 31.
