For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances. In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the battery module of the present invention includes a plurality of battery core modules 100. The battery module here can be an energy storage battery, or other batteries used in other fields.

[0024] The battery cell module 100 includes a housing shell 1, a partition plate 2 for dividing the housing shell 1 into a plurality of housing cavities 11, a plurality of electrode groups 3 located in the housing shell 1, two temperature collection components 4, a positive electrode collector 5, a negative electrode collector 6, an injection molded cover 7 for sealing the electrode group 3 in the housing shell 1, and a positive electrode stage 8 and a negative electrode stage 9 formed on the injection molded cover 7.

[0025] Each of the electrode sets 3 includes a positive electrode 31 and a negative electrode 32 . The positive electrode current collector 5 is used to connect the positive electrodes 31 of the plurality of electrode sets 3 . The negative electrode current collector 6 is used to connect the negative electrodes 32 of the plurality of electrode sets 3 .

[0026] The positive electrode stage 8 and the negative electrode stage 9 are electrically connected to the positive electrode current collector 5 and the negative electrode current collector 6 respectively, so as to realize parallel connection of multiple electrode sheet groups 3 .

[0027] The positive electrode current collector 5 and the negative electrode current collector 6 are also integrated into the injection molded cover 7 , and the injection molded cover 7 is used as top insulation and protection.

[0028] The partition plate 2 includes a transverse partition plate 21 and a longitudinal partition plate 22 arranged between two rows of the electrode groups 3. In this embodiment, there is one transverse partition plate 21 and two longitudinal partition plates 22 to divide the receiving shell 1 into six receiving chambers 11.

[0029] The electrode group 3 can be wound or laminated. Under the production line conditions of the electrode group 3 of the existing production line, multiple parallel expansion can be achieved to achieve large-capacity external characteristics and reduce the demand for production lines.

[0030] Correspondingly, in this embodiment, the number of the electrode sets 3 is six, each of the electrode sets 3 is accommodated in one of the accommodating chambers 11 , and the electrode sets 3 are abutted against the partition plate 2 and the accommodating shell 1 .

[0031] In this embodiment, the housing shell 1 and the partition plate 2 are both made of heat-conducting materials. Furthermore, the housing shell 1 is made of metal materials, and the housing shell 1 and the partition plate 2 are both made of aluminum alloy materials and are integrally formed.

[0032] The partition plate 2 is integrated with a flow channel 23, and further, the flow channel 23 is integrated in the transverse partition plate 21. In this way, the flow channel 23 can be arranged adjacent to all the electrode groups 3, and the electrode groups 3 on both sides can be cooled at the same time. The flow channel 23 is parallel to the flow channel 23 and is distributed to each receiving cavity 11 position, which can reduce resistance.

[0033] Insulating paint is applied inside the flow channel 23 or a static heat exchange medium is arranged outside the flow channel 23 to be used as insulation between the electrode group 3 to avoid electrical risks such as short circuit.

[0034] The flow channel 23 is disposed adjacent to all the pole piece groups 3, and the two ends of the flow channel 23 are a liquid inlet 24 and a liquid outlet 25. The liquid inlet 24 and the liquid outlet 25 protrude outside the receiving shell 1, and the liquid inlet 24 and the liquid outlet 25 are located at the same end of the receiving shell 1. The liquid inlet 24 and the liquid outlet 25 are in communication with an external cooling system.

[0035] In special circumstances such as the pole piece group 3 in the battery cell being out of control, the aluminum shell can be melted at high temperature, and the cooling medium in the flow channel 23 can come out to achieve high temperature suppression of the corresponding pole piece group 3.

[0036] In addition, during the charge and discharge cycle of the battery cell module 100, the electrode group 3 expands, but the provision of the transverse partition 21 and the flow channel 23 can strengthen the compaction of the electrode group 3, have the effect of absorbing the expansion of the battery cell, play a buffering effect, and achieve the goal of prolonging the service life.

[0037] The temperature collection component 4 has a collection part and a connection part 41. The collection part is integrated in the receiving shell 1 on both sides, and each of the collection parts is arranged adjacent to a row of electrode groups 3. In the height direction, the temperature collection component 4 is arranged in the middle of the receiving shell 1. The connection part 41 is connected to the collection part and is located outside the receiving shell 1. The collection part is a sheet-shaped thermocouple arranged at the center of the large surface of the electrode group 3 to read the temperature of the electrode group 3. The wiring harness is flattened, etched along the receiving shell 1, and filled with insulating glue inside for data transmission.

[0038] The cell module 100 and the battery module of the present invention can achieve heat dissipation for the electrode group 3 by integrating the flow channel 23 in the partition plate 2, and improve the heat dissipation effect of the cell module 100 itself with maximum efficiency to meet the use requirements; by providing the temperature collection component 4 and the flow channel 23, the integration difficulty of the battery module can be reduced, and the product cost can be reduced by scale and automation.

[0039] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0040] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
