Embodiment 1

[0027] Referring to Figures 1 - 3 as shown, a battery pack acquisition system of the present utility model includes:

[0028] A box body 3, in which at least two battery modules are provided, each battery module has a plurality of battery cells connected in series, at least two of the battery modules are connected in series in sequence, and are respectively electrically connected to an acquisition circuit board 13, and the acquisition circuit board 13 is provided with an electrical connector 6;

[0029] A plurality of signal acquisition components, which are used to detect the signals of the battery cells of the battery module and are connected to the battery cells;

[0030] A plurality of connection rows 4, the two ends of which are respectively electrically connected to adjacent battery cells, and the signal acquisition components are connected to the connection rows 4 through metal sheets 5, and adjacent connection rows 4 are connected through a first circuit on the acquisition circuit board 13, and the connection row 4 at the end of the battery module is connected to the electrical connector 6 through a second circuit on the acquisition circuit board 13;

[0031] A host 12, whose input end is connected to the electrical connector 6.

[0032] At least two battery modules are accommodated inside the box body 3 to form an external protection structure, and each battery module is composed of multiple series-connected battery cells. The battery modules are connected in series in sequence to form an overall battery pack structure. The signals of the battery cells are detected in real time by a signal acquisition component, and the signals are transmitted to the electrical connector 6 through the signal metal sheet 5, the connection row 4, and the acquisition circuit board 13. The sensors in the signal acquisition component are plugged into the connection row 4 through wires, which can be quickly assembled and disassembled. The signals are sequentially transmitted to the electrical connector 6 and the host 12 through the circuits on the acquisition circuit board 13. The host 12 receives the signals from each battery cell and analyzes and judges the signals by using the built-in algorithms and programs, so as to master the working state of the battery pack in real time, and control the charging and discharging process of the battery pack according to the preset rules and strategies, thereby ensuring the safe and efficient operation of the battery pack.

[0033] The metal sheet 5 is a nickel sheet, the connection row 4 is a connecting aluminum row, and the end of the nickel sheet is welded to the aluminum row and the circuit board. The nickel sheet is selected as the metal sheet 5, and the voltage is collected through the nickel sheet as a voltage acquisition terminal. The connecting aluminum row is used as the connection row 4, and the end of the nickel sheet is connected to the aluminum row and the circuit board by welding. The nickel sheet has good electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance, can stably transmit the signals of the battery cells, and reduce the loss and distortion of the signals during the transmission process. The connecting aluminum row has the characteristics of light weight, low cost, and good electrical conductivity. Welding the end of the nickel sheet to the aluminum row and the circuit board forms a firm and reliable electrical connection. The welding process ensures a low resistance at the connection part, enabling the signals to be transmitted efficiently and stably between various components. The electrical connector 6 is a module signal acquisition communication plug, which is plugged into the acquisition circuit board 13.

[0034] The connection row 4 is provided with welding positioning holes 2, whose sizes and positions match the corresponding welding points or positioning posts on the nickel sheet and the circuit board. When performing the welding operation, the nickel sheet and the connecting aluminum row are placed at the corresponding positions on the circuit board. The nickel sheet is arranged between the aluminum row and the circuit board, and the welding positioning holes 2 are aligned with the preset welding points on the circuit board. In some embodiments, the nickel sheet is provided with positioning holes 2 that are coaxial with and have the same size as the connection row 4.

[0035] Adjacent battery modules are connected in series through a copper row assembly. In this embodiment, the number of battery modules is two, including a first battery module 10 and a second battery module 9. The copper row assembly has good electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, and is used to connect the battery modules that have aggregated multiple battery cells in series at the ends. The bottom of the box body 3 is also provided with support feet and plug connectors. The copper row assembly is electrically connected to the plug connectors. The plug connectors are provided with multiple sockets for inputting or outputting current.

[0036] On the first sides adjacent to the battery modules, a positive copper busbar 11 and a negative copper busbar 7 which are electrically connected to each other are respectively arranged, and on the other sides, a negative copper busbar 7 and a positive copper busbar 11 which are electrically connected to each other are respectively arranged. At one end of the box body 3, the adjacent battery modules are connected in series through the positive copper busbar 11 and the negative copper busbar 7 on the same side. The current flows out from the positive copper busbar 11 on one side of a battery module and flows into this module through the negative copper busbar 7 on the same side of the adjacent battery module connected thereto. At the other end of the box body 3, the current flows out from the negative copper busbar 7 on the other side of a battery module and realizes series connection through the positive copper busbar 11 of the adjacent module, so that the adjacent battery modules are connected in series in sequence to form a complete battery pack circuit.

[0037] The electrical connector 6 is connected to the input end of the host 12 through a wire harness. When the circuit board is a rigid printed circuit board, it is necessary to adapt to the internal space of the battery pack and the requirements of wiring bending through the wire harness.

[0038] Insulating parts are arranged between the adjacent battery modules. Arranging insulating parts between the adjacent battery modules can enhance the electrical insulation performance between the battery modules and improve the use safety and reliability of the battery pack.

[0039] Each battery cell is also provided with an explosion-proof valve 1 to further increase the safety of the battery module. The explosion-proof valve 1 is connected to the pad through a convex structure (the tab is welded on the pad). When the internal pressure of the battery rises to a certain level, the explosion-proof valve 1 will deform and separate from the pad, thus cutting off the current loop.

[0040] The signal acquisition component includes a voltage acquisition part and a temperature acquisition part. The voltage acquisition part adopts a voltage sensor, which can accurately measure the voltage value of the battery cells in the battery module in real time. Its design is compact and easy to install, and it is connected to the battery cells through wires or contacts to capture voltage changes. The temperature acquisition part is a temperature sensor such as a thermistor or a thermocouple, which is installed on the surface of the battery cell, the electrode connection part, etc., can quickly sense the temperature change, and can timely transmit the temperature information to the host 12.
