The positive electrode shell 101 and the negative electrode shell 102 are electrically connected to the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the battery core 200, respectively.
[0028] In this embodiment, the positive and negative electrodes of the battery core 200 are directly electrically connected to the positive electrode shell 101 and the negative electrode shell 102 of the battery shell 100, respectively, eliminating the pole structure in the battery structure, reducing the internal resistance of the battery, and also reducing the internal space required for the battery core 200, thereby increasing the energy density of the battery; and the positive electrode shell 101 and the negative electrode shell 102 can also be used as the positive pole column and the negative pole column, respectively, so that the battery shell 100 integrates the function of the pole.
[0029] Further preferably, an insulating member is disposed between the positive electrode case 101 and the negative electrode case 102 , so that the positive electrode case 101 and the negative electrode case 102 are insulated from each other.
[0030] Specifically, the positive electrode shell 101 and the negative electrode shell 102 do not contact each other, and the insulating member includes a connecting boss 103 arranged on the outer wall of the opening of one of the negative electrode shell 102 and the positive electrode shell 101, and a connecting buckle strip 104 is arranged on the other, and the connecting buckle strip 104 covers the connecting boss 103, and a gap is arranged between the connecting buckle strip 104 and the connecting boss 103 to form an insulating cavity, and an insulating part is arranged in the insulating cavity.
