[0002] During the daily use of the CCS battery module of new energy vehicles, there is a certain degree of vibration. When designing the battery module, in order to consider the absorption of vibration energy during daily use, a soft connection structure is adopted for the output pole. For the positive and negative output pole aluminum bars of the new energy CCS battery module to meet the laser welding process with the battery cells, the substrate thickness of the welding area needs to be reduced to 1.5 mm, and the common processing method is machining.
[0003] In the actual production process, since the welding peel strength of aluminum material is lower than the downward pressure of the machining tool, the machining scheme of thinning the material in the welding area has the risk of causing aluminum foil delamination, which is likely to cause cracking of the soft connection of the output pole.
[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a soft connection structure for the output pole of a battery module to solve the problems raised in the above background technique. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:
[0007] A soft connection structure for the output pole of a battery module, which includes: an aluminum bar, which is composed of a first connection part, a bending part and a second connection part; a welding cavity, which is opened on the first connection part, a first locking hole position is penetrated on the inner wall surface of the welding cavity, and a circular hole position is penetrated on the first connection part; a cutting position is cut on one side of the bending part and the second connection part; a second locking hole position, which is penetrated through the second connection part, and the number of the second locking hole positions is two.
[0008] According to the soft connection structure for the output pole of the battery module, the aluminum bar is laminated by multiple layers of soft aluminum foils to the designed thickness and welded by a polymer diffusion welding device.
[0009] According to the soft connection structure for the output pole of the battery module, the welding cavity is thinned by a hardware stamping die, the welding cavity is circular, and the first locking hole position is at the center of the welding cavity.
[0010] According to the soft connection structure for the output pole of the battery module, the cutting position is blanked on one side of the bending part and the second connection part by a hardware stamping die.

[0012] According to the battery module output pole soft connection structure, the bent portion is formed by bending through a hardware forming die.
[0013] According to the battery module output pole soft connection structure, the surfaces of the first locking hole, the circular hole and the second locking hole are attached with 0.1 mm thick nickel foil.
[0014] The utility model provides a battery module output pole soft connection structure. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] (1) In the actual production process, since the welding peel strength of the aluminum material is lower than the downward pressure of the machining tool, the scheme of machining thinning the material of the welding area has the risk of causing the aluminum foil to be delaminated, which is easy to cause the output extremely soft connection to crack. The present application uses a metal stamping die to thin the first connection part to form a welding cavity, which can save machining costs and shorten the machining process time, effectively avoid the risk of delamination caused by machining, and improve the quality of the finished product.

A circular hole and a second locking hole are punched out by a metal stamping die, and the bent part is bent by a metal forming die, which facilitates the connection between the output pole and the battery cell.
[0017] (3) A 0.1 mm thick nickel foil is attached to the surface of the first locking hole, the circular hole, and the second locking hole. The excellent electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance of the nickel foil ensure the normal operation of the battery module. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
