[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model provides a bending structure, including: a pole group 1; and a shell 2, the shell 2 is arranged circumferentially around the pole group 1, and the shell 2 is suitable for covering the pole group 1. By surrounding the pole group 1 with the shell 2, there is no need to set a bottom support plate under the pole group 1, which reduces the production line production process and can also improve the battery cell assembly ratio and capacity. The shell 2 adopts a ring-wrapped setting, which saves space and removes the bottom support plate, reducing costs; moreover, there is no need to fix the bottom support plate to the shell 2 by hot melting, saving equipment costs.

[0031] Preferably, the shell 2 includes a covering portion 21, and the covering portion 21 is suitable for covering the outer wall of the pole group 1 circumferentially around the outer wall of the pole group 1. The covering portion 21 is rectangular. The covering portion 21 is suitable for covering the pole group 1 circumferentially from the outer wall of the pole group 1, and the two ends of the covering portion 21 in the length direction are suitable for sticking to each other.

The support member 22 is integrally arranged with the covering portion 21, and there are two support members 22, and the two support members 22 are suitable for supporting the pole group 1 from the bottom. The support member 22 is suitable for bending 90 degrees relative to the covering portion 21. The support member 22 is provided with a fold 3 along the center line of the length direction, and the support member 22 can be bent along the fold 3. The covering portion 21 and the support member 22 cooperate to package the pole group 1 in a ring-wrapped bending manner.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 The support member 22 is suitable for bending along the fold 3 toward a side close to the covering portion 21. The support member 22 is bent upward along the fold 3, thereby improving the stability of the support member 22 supporting the electrode group 1.

[0034] Reference Figure 3 The support member 22 is suitable for bending along the fold 3 to the side away from the covering portion 21. The support member 22 is bent downward along the fold 3, which increases the space at the bottom of the electrode group 1, which is beneficial to improving the battery cell assembly ratio and capacity.
