[0027] The connection assembly 200 includes an electrical connection piece 201 disposed on the end surface of the first housing 101 and a clamping piece 202 matched with the positioning pin 103 .

[0028] The positioning pin 103 is fixedly connected to the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 respectively, and the positioning pin 103 is cylindrical.

[0029] The first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are provided with a first mounting hole 105 and a second mounting hole 106 on their outer walls, and the first mounting hole 105 and the second mounting hole 106 can be used in conjunction with other external parts to facilitate the installation of multiple battery packs;

[0030] Second positioning pins 107 are also fixedly disposed on the outer walls of the first shell 101 and the second shell 102 , and the second positioning pins 107 are disposed to facilitate connection and positioning between multiple battery packs.

[0031] A pin hole 108 is further provided above the first shell 101 and the second shell 102. A pin is installed in the pin hole 108 to facilitate the connection between multiple battery shells 100 in the vertical direction; a clamping strip 109 is provided on both sides of the first shell 101 and the second shell 102, and a sliding groove is provided in the clamping strip to facilitate the horizontal connection of multiple battery shells 100.

[0032] Preferably, the first shell 101 is connected to the second shell 102 by a snap-fit, there are 2 positioning pins 103, both of which are cylindrical, there are 4 electrical connecting sheets 201, and the 4 electrical connecting sheets are respectively arranged at the upper part of the first shell 101 and the lower part of the second shell 102, and multiple battery cells 104 are arranged inside the first shell 101 and the second shell 102, and the 4 electrical connecting sheets are 2 sheets in a group and are respectively arranged at both ends of the battery cell hole 104.

[0033] The clamping member 202 includes a plurality of clamping pieces 202a arranged in an array, arc-shaped cut surfaces 202c formed on the outer walls of the clamping pieces 202a, and through slots 202b formed between the clamping pieces 202a.
