[0040] Step S11: providing a battery laminate 10;
[0041] Step S12: placing the battery laminate 10 into a mold;
[0042] Step S16: injecting the first flow dynamic material into the mold;
[0043] Step S17: solidify the first flow dynamic material, form an injection molding structure 20 outside the battery laminate 10, encapsulate the battery laminate 10, and form a battery assembly 100.
[0044] In the manufacturing method of the battery assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present application, since the injection molding structure 20 is formed based on the injection molding process and is connected with the battery laminate 10 based on the injection molding process, the injection molding structure 20 formed by curing based on the injection molding process can be used to realize the packaging of the battery laminate 10, making the packaging process simpler and helping to improve the manufacturing efficiency of the battery assembly 100.
[0045] Specifically, before step S11, the battery cells may be welded with welding tape to form a battery string, which is then laminated together with the front plate, the back plate and the adhesive film to form the battery laminate 10. It is understood that in other embodiments, the welding tape, the battery cells, the front plate, the back plate and the adhesive film may be laminated together, and the welding tape and the battery cells may be welded during lamination to form the battery laminate 10.

[0047] Specifically, in step S12, the battery laminate 10 can be placed in the mold cavity. In this way, the battery laminate 10 is positioned by the mold cavity to prevent the battery laminate 10 from moving during the injection molding process, so that the formed injection molding structure 20 can package the battery laminate 10 more accurately.
[0048] Specifically, in step S16, the first flow state material includes at least one of a thermoplastic material and a thermosetting material.

In the present application, since the injection molded structure 20 is formed by the injection molding process, the injection molded structure 20 can be formed on the outside of the battery laminate 10 only by curing after injecting the fluidized material, without the need to use manual or mechanical means to position the injection molded structure 20 in the battery laminate 10 and fix the injection molded structure 20 to the battery laminate 10, which can reduce the participation of manual or complex machinery, making the encapsulation more convenient, and is conducive to improving the efficiency of the battery assembly 100. Moreover, there are usually multiple structures for encapsulating the battery laminate 10. The present application can use the injection molding process to form the injection molded structure 20 at one time, replacing the multiple structures for encapsulating the battery laminate 10 in the related art, so that each structure used for encapsulation does not need to be positioned and fixed, which can further improve the efficiency of making the battery assembly 100.

[0096] Step S1421: applying adhesive to the connection area;
[0097] Step S1422: curing the adhesive to form a connecting layer.
[0098] In this way, by coating and curing the adhesive, a connection layer can be efficiently provided in the connection area on the surface of the accessory 30, which is beneficial to improving the production efficiency of the assembly and improving the bonding and sealing effects at the interface.

[0105] Step S173 : Cooling the thermoplastic material in the mold to form an injection-molded structure 20 .
[0106] In this way, the thermoplastic material is used for injection molding, and the injection-molded structure 20 is formed by cooling, so that the solidification of the injection-molded structure 20 is relatively simple and does not require much processing, which is beneficial to improving the manufacturing efficiency of the component.
[0107] Specifically, before step S16, that is, before injecting the first fluid material into the mold, the thermoplastic material is heated so that the thermoplastic material becomes fluid and is easy to inject into the mold.

[0115] In this way, curing is achieved through the reaction of isocyanate and polyol, and heating is not required to form the first-flow dynamic material, which is more convenient. Moreover, mixing the two thermosetting materials before injecting the first-flow dynamic material can avoid the difficulty in mixing or insufficient mixing of the materials after injecting them into the mold, so that the two thermosetting materials are mixed more fully, thereby ensuring the effect of reaction curing.
[0116] It will be appreciated that the injection molded structure 20 thus formed comprises a polyurethane structure.

[0121] In this way, the injection molding process can be used to form a buffer structure 40 between the battery laminate 10 and the injection molding structure 20. The buffer structure 40 can be used to relieve the stress of the battery laminate 10 and the injection molding structure 20, reduce the risk of structural damage, and help improve reliability.
[0122] In this embodiment, the mold for injecting the first fluid material and the mold for injecting the second fluid material are the same. In other words, after curing the second fluid material, it is not necessary to remove the battery laminate 10 with the buffer structure 40 from the mold and then inject the first fluid material into the mold.
[0123] It is understood that in other embodiments, the molds for injecting the first fluid material and the molds for injecting the second fluid material may be different. In other words, after the second fluid material is cured, the battery laminate 10 provided with the buffer structure 40 may be taken out of the mold, put into another mold, and then the first fluid material may be injected into the other mold.
[0124] Specifically, in step S131, the second fluid material may be a liquid material, a molten material, or a mixture of a liquid material and a molten material.
[0125] Specifically, in step S131, the second flow dynamic material includes at least one of TPU, TPE, and PVC.
[0126] Specifically, in step S131, the second fluid material is a soft material, and the buffer structure 40 formed by solidification is a soft structure, so that stress can be better relieved and the risk of structural damage can be reduced.
[0127] Specifically, in step S132, the explanation and description of curing the second fluid dynamic material may refer to the explanation and description of curing the first fluid dynamic material in the foregoing text, and will not be repeated here to avoid redundancy.
[0128] Specifically, in step S132 , the buffer structure 40 is at least partially located between the injection molded structure 20 and the battery laminate 10 , which means that part of the buffer structure 40 is located between the injection molded structure 20 and the battery laminate 10 , or the entire buffer structure 40 is located between the injection molded structure 20 and the battery laminate 10 .

[0133] Specifically, the protective coating includes at least one of a polyurethane coating and a fluorocarbon coating. In this way, the protective coating can block ultraviolet rays and protect the injection molded structure 20.
[0134] Specifically, the protective coating covers the entire area of the surface of the injection molded structure 20 exposed from the battery laminate 10. In this way, the protective coating is as wide as possible and the protective effect is improved as much as possible. It is understood that the protective coating may also cover a partial area of the surface of the injection molded structure 20 exposed from the battery laminate 10.

For example, the series connection of battery cells can be realized by setting welding strips (bus bars, interconnecting strips), conductive backplanes, etc.
[0139] It is understandable that in such an embodiment, the battery assembly 100 may also include a metal frame, a back plate, photovoltaic glass and an adhesive film. The adhesive film may be filled between the front and back of the solar cell and the photovoltaic glass, adjacent cells, etc. As a filler, it may be a transparent colloid with good light transmittance and aging resistance. For example, the adhesive film may be an EVA adhesive film or a POE adhesive film. The specific selection may be based on actual conditions and is not limited here.
[0140] Photovoltaic glass can cover the adhesive film on the front of the solar cell. The photovoltaic glass can be ultra-white glass, which has high light transmittance, high transparency, and excellent physical, mechanical and optical properties. For example, the light transmittance of ultra-white glass can reach more than 92%, which can protect the solar cell without affecting the efficiency of the solar cell as much as possible. At the same time, the adhesive film can bond the photovoltaic glass and the solar cell together. The presence of the adhesive film can seal and insulate the solar cell and make it waterproof and moisture-proof.
[0141] The backplane can be attached to the adhesive film on the back of the solar cell. The backplane can protect and support the solar cell and has reliable insulation, water resistance and aging resistance. There are multiple options for the backplane, which can usually be tempered glass, organic glass, aluminum alloy TPT composite adhesive film, etc. It can be set according to the specific situation and is not limited here. The whole composed of the backplane, solar cell, adhesive film and photovoltaic glass can be set on a metal frame. The metal frame serves as the main external support structure of the entire battery assembly 100 and can provide stable support and installation for the battery assembly 100. For example, the battery assembly 100 can be installed at the required installation position through the metal frame. The metal frame can also be omitted, for example, the injection molding structure including the frame is manufactured by the manufacturing method of this embodiment.
