Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of batteries and relates to a multi-section lithium battery module locking assembly. Background Art
[0002] One of the fundamental elements in e-bike design that determines its performance and functionality is the battery. Current e-bike battery designs are primarily categorized into several types: inner tube batteries, insert tube batteries, down tube batteries, and range extenders. These differ primarily in how the batteries are mounted; some manufacturers also mount the batteries on the back seat of the bicycle. However, there are generally only two methods for assembling the battery module. One method involves radially arranging the cells along the length of the battery. This method offers advantages such as simplified mold creation for the cell fasteners, fewer molds required, and less labor required for screw assembly, resulting in a relatively simple and cost-effective process. However, its disadvantage is the large space required for the battery module, which ultimately impacts the overall battery pack volume. The other method involves axially arranging the cells along the length of the battery. This method offers advantages such as reduced space requirements, allowing for a slender battery design that facilitates insertion into the bicycle tube without detracting from the overall aesthetics of the vehicle. However, its disadvantages are significant: it requires a large number of cell fasteners, complicates assembly, and increases manufacturing costs.
[0003] The selection of battery module design and battery installation method ultimately cannot avoid considering battery performance, aesthetics with the entire vehicle, installation ease, and price, in order to fully meet the user's requirements for the appearance and performance of the electric bicycle. In this environment, lightweight, miniaturized, and customized bicycle battery designs have become an inevitable trend. Utility Model Content

[0006] The multi-cell lithium battery module locking assembly includes a side fastening plate, a battery module, a hexagonal limit head and a top plate. The multi-cell lithium battery module is formed by multiple battery modules arranged axially in the direction of the battery length. The multiple battery modules are locked and fixed by four groups of locking assemblies. The locking assembly is a long tooth bar, one end of the long tooth bar is provided with a hexagonal limit head, and the other end of the long tooth bar is provided with a threaded head. The end of the long tooth bar with the threaded head passes through multiple battery modules and is connected to the nut on the side of the battery module.
[0007] In the above-mentioned multi-cell lithium battery module locking assembly, each battery module is provided with a plurality of through holes along the axial direction, and the long tooth bar passes through the through holes and is sleeved with a nut.

[0009] In the above-mentioned multi-cell lithium battery module locking assembly, a top plate is provided on the top of the multi-cell lithium battery module, and a plurality of terminal blocks are provided on the top of the top plate.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the multi-cell lithium battery module locking assembly of the present invention are:
[0011] This application uses a certain number of long tooth bars in the fastening module. The number of long tooth bars depends on the spacing of the through holes reserved for the battery cell fasteners. The long tooth bars pass through the through holes reserved for the battery cell fasteners one by one, and the hexagon at one end of the long tooth bar is used as a sinking point for fixation. After the other end passes through the last battery module, it is locked with a hexagonal nut to achieve the effect of fixing multiple battery modules.
