Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of batteries, in particular to a battery frame structure and stacked group batteries. Background Art

[0002] At present, lithium-ion batteries are more and more widely used in the field of electric vehicles. Soft-pack batteries are favored by the industry due to their good safety, light weight, high energy density and other advantages. The stacking scheme of soft-pack batteries has become one of the mainstream grouping schemes because the thickness of the battery can be flexibly adjusted to match different models. Due to the structural characteristics of the soft-pack battery itself, it is necessary to design a corresponding frame structure to fix the soft-pack battery when it is connected in series and parallel in the battery pack. When the stacked batteries are arranged in the battery box for electrical connection, the batteries in the same layer can be directly connected in series and parallel by welding the pole ears. When the batteries between different layers are connected in series and parallel, it is necessary to pre-bend one of the battery cell pole ears before stacking, and then stack them, and use tooling or separate structural parts to support the bottom of the pole ears to be welded, so that the pole ears of the two layers of batteries can be pressed by the pole ear pressing tooling for welding. After welding, the supporting tooling or structural parts need to be removed and installed at the bottom of the pole ears of the next layer of stacking modules. Since the electrical connections of different layers of batteries are usually set at both ends of the battery stacking module, the layout is close to the inner wall of the battery box, which leads to small operating space and low efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new battery frame structure, which can guide the bending of the tabs through the frame structure and simplify the process before the tab welding. Utility Model Content

3. The battery frame structure according to claim 2, characterized in that: It also includes a plurality of middle pressure plates, the first frame includes a plurality of first middle bottom brackets, and the second frame includes a plurality of second middle bottom brackets; The first middle base is disposed between the two first end bases and is fixedly connected to the first shell, and the middle pressure plate is disposed on one side of the first middle base facing the bottom surface of the second shell; The second middle bottom bracket is fixedly connected to a side of the second shell away from the first middle bottom bracket and is arranged corresponding to the first middle bottom bracket, and the middle pressure plate is arranged on a side of the second middle bottom bracket away from the bottom surface of the first shell; Among them, the cooperation between the first middle base and the middle pressure plate is used to press the first pole ears of the first battery cell on both sides of the middle pressure plate; the cooperation between the second middle base and the middle pressure plate is used to press the second pole ears of the second battery cell on both sides of the middle pressure plate.

4. The battery frame structure according to claim 3, characterized in that: The middle pressure plate is provided with a first positioning hole, the first middle base is provided with a first positioning pin corresponding to the first positioning hole on the side facing the second shell, and the second middle base is provided with a second positioning pin corresponding to the first positioning hole on the side facing away from the second shell.

5. The battery frame structure according to claim 2, characterized in that: A third positioning pin is provided on the side of the first end base close to the first end pressure plate, a fourth positioning pin is provided on the side of the second end base close to the first end pressure plate, and the first end pressure plate is provided with a second positioning hole corresponding to the third positioning pin and a third positioning hole corresponding to the fourth positioning pin.

6. The battery frame structure according to claim 2, characterized in that: A fifth positioning pin is disposed on one side of the second end base close to the second end pressure plate, and a fourth positioning hole corresponding to the fifth positioning pin is disposed on the second end pressure plate.

7. The battery frame structure according to claim 3, characterized in that: A first avoidance groove is provided on the side of the first middle base toward the second shell, a second avoidance groove is provided on the side of the second middle base away from the second shell, and a third avoidance groove is provided on the side of the first end base in the same direction as the first end pressure plate, wherein the first avoidance groove, the second avoidance groove and the third avoidance groove are respectively used to avoid the heat from the welding of the tabs between the battery cells from penetrating the first middle base, the second middle base and the first end base.

8. The battery frame structure according to claim 1, characterized in that: It also includes a plurality of foams, wherein the foams are arranged between the first shell and the first battery core, and the foams are arranged between the second shell and the second battery core.

9. The battery frame structure according to claim 3, characterized in that: The first end base support, the first end pressure plate, the second end base support, the second end pressure plate, the first middle base support, the second middle base support and the middle pressure plate are made of insulating materials.

10. A stacked battery group, characterized in that: Comprising a plurality of battery cells, a plurality of fixing members and a plurality of battery frame structures as described in any one of claims 1 to 9; Several groups of the battery frames are stacked, and the fixing member fixedly connects the first frame and the second frame of different groups; The battery cells are evenly arranged in the first frame and the second frame of the battery frame structure.
