[0025] Embodiment: A battery module with a heating function, as Figures 1-5 shown, includes:

[0026] The battery cell module 1, there are two battery cell modules 1, and the two battery cell modules 1 are rotatably connected. After the two battery cell modules 1 are rotated, they are stacked, which can not only improve the space utilization rate, but also facilitate adjusting the layout of the battery cell module 1 when needed;

[0027] The heating film 2 is arranged between the two stacked battery cell modules 1 to ensure that heat can be evenly and effectively transferred to the inside of the battery cell module 1, thereby increasing the working temperature of the battery module;

[0028] The fastening assembly 3 includes a screw 301, a nut 303 and a fixing plate 302. Four screws 301 slide through the two stacked battery cell modules 1 and are slidably connected to the two fixing plates 302. The two stacked battery cell modules 1 are located between the two fixing plates 302. Nuts 303 are threadedly connected to both ends of the screw 301 away from the two fixing plates 302. The combination of the nut 303 and the fixing plate 302 is used for fixation, so that the battery cell modules 1 can be stacked together and remain stable.

[0029] Among them, the battery cell module 1 includes battery cells 102 and a bracket 101. Both ends of multiple battery cells 102 are fixedly connected to the two brackets 101 respectively. The bracket 101 is slidably connected to the four screws 301. Multiple battery cells 102 are arranged in groups at intervals, and the multiple groups of battery cells 102 are arranged alternately in the same plane according to positive and negative polarities.

[0030] Among them, the battery cell module 1 further includes a plurality of connecting pieces 103. The connecting pieces 103 are made of nickel sheets. The top or bottom of the rows of battery cell groups 102 are connected in series with positive and negative adjacent by spot welding, and the two battery cell modules 1 are connected in series through a connecting piece 103 to ensure efficient and stable power transmission between the battery cells 102.

[0031] Among them, the heating film 2 uses an NTC heating film, and the heating film 2 is connected to the battery cell module 1 by bonding.

[0032] Among them, the fastening assembly 3 further includes a sleeve 304. The sleeve 304 is made of PVC plastic.
