Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to relevant technical fields such as battery systems in new energy electric vehicles, and in particular to a fast-charging BDU structure in a battery box. Background Art
[0002] In new energy electric vehicles, the battery system is the vehicle's energy system, and therefore serves as the vehicle's energy distribution mechanism. This energy distribution requires a power distribution unit (BDU) to control the battery system's charge and discharge balance. This power distribution unit is known as the Battery Energy Distribution Unit (BDU). Traditional BDUs used in fast-charging circuits have built-in connectors for the low-voltage coil leads of the contactors, making them inapplicable to many wire-type contactors.
[0003] Currently, most fast-charging BDUs have internal contactors with connectors for their coil leads, integrating the contactor and connector into a single unit. This approach is costly. Furthermore, in practice, the external wiring harness is inserted into the connector, which is very close to the corner of the BDU base. The connector sits against this corner, leaving little room for the connector and making it difficult to remove. Utility Model Content
