[0039] A battery pack 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the battery pack 100 according to the embodiment of the present utility model includes a battery group 1 and a collection circuit board 4.

[0041] Specifically, refer to the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 5 As shown, the battery pack 1 includes a Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1 , two battery cell groups 11 are spaced apart from each other, each battery cell group 11 includes two battery cell groups 11 in the second direction (see FIG. Figure 1 The multiple battery cells 111 are arranged in the front-to-back direction (as shown in the second direction) and the second direction is perpendicular to the third direction, so that the number of battery cells 111 in the battery pack 100 can be increased, the battery cells 111 can be arranged more compactly in the battery pack 100, the space utilization of the battery pack 100 in the second direction and the third direction is improved, the energy density of the battery pack 100 is increased, and the cruising range is improved to meet the user's usage needs.

[0042] For example, the number of the battery cells 111 arranged in the second direction in each battery cell group 11 may be two, four, six, eight or ten.

[0043] Optionally, the battery cell 111 can be a short battery cell or a long battery cell. It should be noted that short battery cells and long battery cells have clear definitions in this field. A short battery cell is a battery cell whose length does not exceed a first preset value, and a long battery cell is a battery cell whose length exceeds a second preset value. The above-mentioned first preset value and second preset value may be equal or unequal, and even the first preset value may be greater than the second preset value. Exemplarily, the length of a short battery cell may be 400mm-900mm, and the length of a long battery cell may be 600mm-1200mm.

[0044] In some embodiments, the length of each battery cell 111 may be 400 mm-900 mm, that is, each battery cell 111 may be a short battery cell, and two battery cell groups 11 are arranged side by side to increase the arrangement density of the battery cells 111 .

[0045] Further, see Attachment Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the acquisition circuit board 4 is used for low-voltage signal acquisition. There are multiple acquisition circuit boards 4, and each battery cell group 11 corresponds to at least one acquisition circuit board 4. The corresponding multiple acquisition circuit boards 4 in the same battery pack 1 are respectively located on the side close to each other of the two battery cell groups 11, which can simplify the daisy chain line length of the acquisition circuit board 4, reduce the length of the low-voltage wiring harness, and relatively reduce the requirements for constraining the wiring harness, so that the wiring in the battery pack 100 is cleaner and tidier, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery pack 100 and reducing the safety hazards of the battery pack 100.

[0046] According to the battery pack 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, the battery pack 1 includes two battery cell groups 11 arranged at intervals along a third direction, each battery cell group 11 corresponds to at least one acquisition circuit board 4, and the corresponding multiple acquisition circuit boards 4 in the same battery pack 1 correspond to the two battery cell groups 11 one by one and are respectively located on the side of the two battery cell groups 11 close to each other, which can simplify the daisy chain line length of the acquisition circuit board 4, reduce the length of the low-voltage wiring harness, and relatively reduce the requirements for constraining the wiring harness, so that the wiring in the battery pack 100 is cleaner and tidier, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery pack 100 and reducing the potential safety hazards of the battery pack 100.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present invention, refer to the attached Figure 2 and attached Figure 4 As shown, the battery pack 1 is in a first direction (see attached Figure 2 There are multiple battery packs 100 stacked in an upper and lower direction (as shown in the upper and lower directions), each battery pack 1 includes two battery cell groups 11 spaced apart along a third direction, each battery cell group 11 includes a plurality of battery cells 111 arranged in the second direction, the number of battery cells 111 in the battery pack 100 can be increased, the battery cells 111 can be arranged more compactly in the battery pack 100, the space utilization of the battery pack 100 in the first direction can be improved, the energy density of the battery pack 100 can be further increased, the cruising range can be improved, and the user's usage requirements can be met, and the third direction, the second direction and the first direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0048] For example, two, three, or four battery packs 1 may be stacked in the first direction.

[0049] In a further embodiment of the present invention, refer to the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the battery pack 100 also includes a BDU module 2 (battery energy distribution unit), which is arranged in the second direction of the plurality of battery packs 1 (see attached Figure 1 On one side of the front-to-back direction shown in the second direction, in two adjacent battery groups 1 in the first direction, the total current input pole 12 of one battery group 1 and the total current output pole 13 of the other battery group 1 are both connected to the BDU module 2 so that the two adjacent battery groups 1 are connected in series through the BDU module 2, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0050] It can be understood that, in two adjacent battery groups 1 in the first direction, the total current input pole 12 of one battery group 1 is connected to the relay protection module, and the total current output pole 13 is directly connected to the main positive relay of the BDU module 2, and the total current output pole 13 of the other battery group 1 is connected to the relay protection module, and the total current input pole 12 is directly connected to the main negative relay of the BDU module 2. This can enable the stacked multi-layer battery groups 1 to be connected within the BDU module 2 while meeting the power requirements, thereby simplifying the high-voltage connection structure of the stacked battery pack 100 and improving the safety of the battery pack 100.

[0051] It should be noted that the relay protection module is a relay other than the main positive relay or the main negative relay, and the connection of the high-voltage circuit needs to be connected together through the relay protection module, the main positive relay and the main negative relay. In addition, the disconnection of the high-voltage circuit can be disconnected through the relay protection module, the main positive relay and the main negative relay, the passive disconnection of the fuse of the main negative relay, the active and passive integrated fuse, or the disconnection unit of the main circuit in other BDU modules 2.

[0052] In a specific example, see the attached Figure 2 and attached Figure 6 As shown, there are two battery packs 1, the two battery packs 1 are a first battery pack 17 and a second battery pack 18, and the first battery pack 17 and the second battery pack 18 are in the up and down direction (such as Figure 6 The first battery group 17 is located on the upper side of the second battery group 18, the total current input pole 12 includes a first total current input pole 121 of the first battery group 17 and a second total current input pole 122 of the second battery group 18, the total current output pole 13 includes a first total current output pole 131 of the first battery group 17 and a second total current output pole 132 of the second battery group 18, the first total current input pole 121 and the second total current output pole 132 are both connected to the relay protection module, and the first total current output pole 131 and the second total current input pole 122 are directly connected to the BDU module 2, so that the first battery group 17 and the second battery group 18 are connected in series through the BDU module 2.

[0053] Of course, the utility model is not limited to this. Two adjacent battery groups 1 in the first direction may also be connected in parallel through the BDU module 2. It can be understood that the total current input pole 12 and the total current output pole 13 of the two adjacent battery groups 1 may be directly connected to the BDU module 2; or, in the two adjacent battery groups 1, the total current input pole 12 and the total current output pole 13 of one battery group 1 are connected to the relay protection module, and the total current input pole 12 and the total current output pole 13 of the other battery group 1 are directly connected to the BDU module 2.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present invention, refer to the attached Figure 5 As shown, multiple battery cells 111 in each battery cell group 11 are connected in series, and multiple battery cell groups 11 in the same battery group 1 are connected in series, so that all battery cells 111 in the same battery group 1 are connected in series, ensuring the layout of the high-voltage circuit of the battery pack 100.

[0055] Specifically, refer to the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 3 As shown, two adjacent cells 111 in each cell group 11 are connected in series through a connecting piece 16, the connecting piece 16 is located at one end of the cell group 11 along the second direction, and both ends of the connecting piece 16 in the length direction are respectively connected to the positive or negative electrodes of two adjacent cells 111 in the same cell group 11, so that multiple cells 111 in each cell group 11 are connected in series. Of course, the utility model is not limited to this, and multiple cells 111 in each cell group 11 can also be electrically connected through a busbar.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present invention, refer to the attached Figure 5 As shown, each battery cell 111 has a positive electrode and a negative electrode arranged at both ends of the third direction, and the positive electrodes of two adjacent battery cells 111 in the same battery cell group 11 are located at opposite ends of the third direction, so that the positive electrode and the negative electrode in each battery cell 111 are respectively located at both ends of the third direction, which can increase the spacing between different electrodes, prevent the risk of high-voltage arc breakdown, facilitate the arrangement and assembly of multiple battery cells 111, ensure the reliability of the assembly of the battery cells 111, and facilitate the connecting piece 16 to connect two adjacent battery cells 111 in the same battery cell group 11 in series.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, refer to the attached Figure 5 As shown, each battery cell 111 has a positive electrode and a negative electrode arranged at both ends of the third direction, and the two adjacent battery cell groups 11 in the same battery pack 1 are respectively the first battery cell group and the second battery cell group, and the two battery cells 111 opposite to each other in the third direction of the first battery cell group and the second battery cell group are respectively the first battery cell and the second battery cell, and the positive electrodes of the first battery cell and the second battery cell are located at opposite ends of the third direction, so that the total current input electrode 12 and the total current output electrode 13 of the same battery pack 1 can be staggered, simplifying the design difficulty of the BDU module 2, reducing the high voltage risk on the side of the battery pack 1 close to the BDU module 2, and improving the safety and reliability of the battery pack 100.

[0058] In a further embodiment of the present invention, refer to the attached Figure 3As shown, two adjacent battery cell groups 11 in the same battery pack 1 are connected through the first connecting row 14, so that the number of interfaces for electrically connecting the BDU module 2 with multiple battery packs 1 can be reduced, and the number of wirings between the BDU module 2 and multiple battery packs 1 can be reduced, thereby reducing the risk of high-voltage breakdown. It can be understood that two adjacent battery cells 111 in the same battery cell group 11 are connected in series through the connecting piece 16, and two adjacent battery cell groups 11 in the same battery pack 1 are connected in series through the first connecting row 14, so that all battery cells 111 in the same battery pack 1 are connected in series, ensuring the layout of the high-voltage circuit of the battery pack 100. Optionally, the first connecting row 14 is a metal conductive member, for example, the second connecting row 15 can be a copper bar, an aluminum bar, or a copper-aluminum composite member.

[0059] In a further embodiment of the present invention, refer to the attached Figure 3 As shown, the first connection row 14 is located on the side of the battery pack 1 away from the BDU module 2, and the extension direction of the corresponding first connection row 14 in the plurality of battery packs 1 (refer to the attached Figure 3 The third direction shown in the figure) is consistent with the length direction (see the attached Figure 3 The two ends of the third direction) are flush and arranged relative to each other in the first direction, avoiding the horizontal and vertical staggered layout between the first connection rows 14 corresponding to the multiple battery groups 1, ensuring sufficient electrical spacing, effectively reducing the electrical safety risks under various safety abuse test conditions, and improving the safety and reliability of the battery pack 100.

[0060] In a further embodiment of the present invention, refer to the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the total current input pole 12 and the total current output pole 13 of each battery group 1 are located at one end of the battery group 1 close to the BDU module 2, which can facilitate the connection of the total current input pole 12 and the total current output pole 13 of each battery group 1 with the BDU module 2, ensuring that two adjacent battery groups 1 in the first direction are connected in series through the BDU module 2, simplifying the routing between the BDU module 2 and multiple battery groups 1, and facilitating the high-voltage circuit layout of the battery pack 100.

[0061] In a specific example, see the attached Figure 6 As shown, there are two battery packs 1, the two battery packs 1 are a first battery pack 17 and a second battery pack 18, and the first battery pack 17 and the second battery pack 18 are in the up and down direction (such as Figure 6The first battery group 17 is located on the upper side of the second battery group 18, the total current input pole 12 includes a first total current input pole 121 of the first battery group 17 and a second total current input pole 122 of the second battery group 18, the total current output pole 13 includes a first total current output pole 131 of the first battery group 17 and a second total current output pole 132 of the second battery group 18, and the first total current input pole 121 and the second total current output pole 132 are both connected to the BDU module 2 so that the first battery group 17 and the second battery group 18 are connected in series through the BDU module 2.

[0062] In such Figure 5 and Figure 6 In the example shown, current flows from the BDU module 2 through the second current total input pole 122 of the second battery group 18 into a cell group 11 of the second battery group 18 to power the cell 111. Through the connection of the first connecting row 14 of the second battery group 18, current flows from one cell group 11 to the adjacent cell group 11, and then flows back to the BDU module 2 through the second current total output pole 132 of the second battery group 18. The adjacent first battery group 17 and the second battery group 18 are connected in series through the relay protection module of the BDU module 2. Current flows from the relay protection module through the first current total input pole 121 of the first battery group 17 into a cell group 11 of the first battery group 17 to power the cell 111. Through the connection of the first connecting row 14 of the first battery group 17, current flows from one cell group 11 to the adjacent cell group 11, and then returns to the BDU module 2 through the first current total output pole 131 of the first battery group 17, thereby realizing the high-voltage circuit of the battery pack 100, complying with the electrical safety design, and ensuring the safety and reliability of the battery pack 100.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present invention, the BDU module 2 includes a relay protection module. In two adjacent battery groups 1, the total current input pole 12 of one battery group 1 and the total current output pole 13 of the other battery group 1 are both connected to the relay protection module so that the two adjacent battery groups 1 are connected or disconnected through the relay protection module.

[0064] Specifically, the relay protection module includes a static contact, a moving contact and a driving member, the static contact includes a first static contact and a second static contact, in two adjacent battery groups 1, the total current input pole 12 of one battery group 1 is electrically connected to the first static contact, and the total current output pole 13 of the other battery group 1 is electrically connected to the second static contact, the moving contact can be driven by the driving member and has a first position and a second position, in the first position, the moving contact is in contact with both the first static contact and the second static contact, the moving contact is connected to the first static contact, the second static contact and the two adjacent battery groups 1, in the second position, the moving contact is spaced apart from at least one of the first static contact and the second static contact, and the moving contact is disconnected from at least one of the first static contact and the second static contact.

[0065] It can be understood that when the relay protection module receives a high-level signal (typical value 5V), the driving member drives the moving contact to move to the first position in the direction close to the static contact, and the moving contact contacts both the first static contact and the second static contact, the moving contact and the static contact are closed, and the first static contact, the moving contact, the second static contact and the two adjacent battery packs 1 are connected to achieve electrical connection between the two adjacent battery packs 1; when the relay protection module receives a low-level signal (typical value 0V), the driving voltage of the driving member is disconnected, the moving contact moves to the second position in the direction away from the static contact, the moving contact is spaced from at least one of the first static contact and the second static contact, the moving contact and the static contact are disconnected, and the electrical connection between the two adjacent battery packs 1 is actively disconnected. When thermal runaway or electrolyte leakage occurs, a current loop cannot be formed, which can slow down the speed of thermal runaway fire to a certain extent, reduce the severity of thermal runaway, and improve safety and reliability.

[0066] In other embodiments of the utility model, a switching device is provided in the BDU module 2. In two adjacent battery groups 1, the total current input pole 12 of one battery group 1 and the total current output pole 13 of the other battery group 1 are both connected to the switching device so that the two adjacent battery groups 1 are connected or disconnected through the switching device. The structure is simple, the assembly is convenient, the control logic is simpler, and the reliability is higher.

[0067] In other embodiments of the present invention, in two adjacent battery groups 1, the total current input pole 12 of one battery group 1 and the total current output pole 13 of the other battery group 1 can be directly connected through a conductive bus outside the BDU module 2 without passing through the BDU module 2, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembling the battery pack 100.

[0068] In a further embodiment of the present invention, refer to the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 3 As shown, the battery pack 100 also includes a rear-drive high-voltage port 3, which is arranged on a side of the plurality of battery packs 1 away from the BDU module 2 and connected to the BDU module 2 through a second connection row 15. One end of the rear-drive high-voltage port 3 away from the second connection row 15 is connected to the rear-drive motor electronic control, and the rear-drive motor electronic control can be driven through the second connection row 15 to provide energy, so as to realize charging of the battery pack 100 through the second connection row 15. In combination with the front-drive high-voltage port of the battery pack 100, the front-drive high-voltage port and the rear-drive high-voltage port 3 can simultaneously charge the battery pack 100, and the setting of the second connection row 15 can reduce the wiring of the vehicle level outside the battery pack 100, simplify the vehicle wiring harness layout, and improve the disassembly and assembly efficiency of the battery pack 100. Optionally, the second connection row 15 is a metal conductive member, for example, the second connection row 15 can be a copper bar, an aluminum bar, or a copper-aluminum composite member.
