Connecting holes 44 are provided at the four corners, and connecting columns 42 are connected inside the connecting holes 44. The ends of the connecting columns 42 are fixed to the bottom end of the upper cover 2. A telescopic spring 43 is sleeved in the middle of the connecting column 42 and between the upper cover 2 and the lower pressure plate 41. The telescopic spring 43 can be compressed. When the upper cover 2 and the battery box shell 1 are fixed, the lower pressure plate 41 presses down the battery cell under the action of the telescopic spring 43, ensuring that the battery cell will not shake or move significantly during transportation, and the circuit of the battery cell can be compressed.

[0024] In this embodiment, the area of ​​the lower pressure plate 41 is smaller than the cross-sectional size of the battery box shell 1. The lower pressure plate 41 is located inside the top end of the battery box shell 1. When the upper cover 2 is covered on top of the battery box shell 1, the lower pressure plate 41 can be located inside the battery box shell 1 to prevent the lower pressure plate 41 from affecting the normal closure of the upper cover 2.

[0025] In this embodiment, a receiving cavity for accommodating the telescopic spring 43 is opened at the bottom corner of the upper cover 2. The telescopic spring 43 is located inside the receiving cavity. When the upper cover 2 and the battery box shell 1 are closed, it is used to store the telescopic spring 43 to prevent the telescopic spring 43 from being too long when compressed and affecting the closing of the upper cover 2.

[0026] In this embodiment, a sealing structure 5 for sealing the gap between the battery box housing 1 and the upper cover 2 is provided between the edge of the upper cover 2 and the edge of the lower pressing plate 41. The sealing structure 5 includes four sealing strips 51. The sealing strips 51 are provided at the four edges of the lower pressing plate 41 and the four edges of the upper cover 2. The folded sealing strips 51 can contact the joint of the battery box housing 1 and the upper cover 2.

[0028] When the utility model is in use, the new energy battery is a common battery. The new energy battery is repeatedly charged and discharged so that the electrical equipment can be used repeatedly. When assembling the new energy battery, the battery core is placed inside the battery box shell 1. At this time, the upper cover 2 is closed on the top of the battery box shell 1, and the lower pressing plate 41 is in contact with the battery core. Under the action of the telescopic spring 43, the lower pressing plate 41 is slidably connected with the connecting column 42 until the lower pressing plate 41 is pressed tightly on the battery core. The battery core inside the battery box shell 1 can be pressed tightly to prevent the battery core from loosening during transportation and use. The circuit at the upper end of the battery core can also be pressed tightly to prevent the circuit from loosening. When the lower pressing plate 41 is pressed tightly, the lower pressing plate 41 is located at The opening size of the sealing strip 51 between the upper cover 2 will also change. Specifically, since one edge of the sealing strip 51 is fixed to the fixing plate 1 52 and the upper cover 2 by a connecting bolt 54, and the other edge of the sealing strip 51 is fixed to the fixing plate 2 53 and the lower pressure plate 41 by a connecting bolt 54, the edge of the sealing strip 51 is fixed to the lower pressure plate 41 and the upper cover 2 to prevent the sealing strip 51 from falling off, and the spacing of the reserved grooves is matched with the thickness of the folded sealing strip 51. When the lower pressure plate 41 and the upper cover 2 are in contact with each other, the sealing strip 51 can seal the edges, especially the middle position between the upper cover 2 and the edge of the battery box shell 1, thereby reducing the water seepage in the middle of the edge of the battery box shell 1 and the upper cover 2.
