[0024] The following diagrams illustrate various embodiments of the present invention. For clarity, many physical details will be included in the following description. However, it should be understood that these physical details are not intended to limit the present invention. In other words, in some embodiments of the present invention, these physical details are not essential.

[0025] In addition, in the present invention, descriptions such as "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and do not specifically refer to the order or sequence, nor are they used to limit the present invention. They are only used to distinguish components or operations described with the same technical terms, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
[0026] This embodiment provides a module end plate structure, which is processed by one-piece molding and is installed at the end of the battery cell 100. It can effectively strengthen and fix the battery cell 100, and its structural strength is high, which improves the reinforcement effect of the battery cell 100 and is conducive to the hoisting of the module. The one-piece molding processing structure can effectively reduce costs.
[0027] Combine Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the module end plate structure of this embodiment includes an end plate body 10, a mounting plate 20 and a mounting block 30. The end plate body 10, the mounting plate 20 and the mounting block 30 are integrally formed. Compared with the traditional combined installation, it can effectively enhance the strength of the end plate structure and reduce costs.
[0028] In this embodiment, the module end plate structure is installed at the end of the battery cell 100 , thereby installing the steel strip 200 , the bracket 300 and the screw 400 to achieve enhanced fixation of the battery cell 100 .
[0029] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the end plate body 10 of this embodiment is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 11, the mounting piece 20 is provided on the end plate body 10, and the mounting piece 20 is provided with a bracket mounting position 21, the number of mounting blocks 30 is two and is provided on both sides of the end plate body 10, and the mounting block 30 is provided with a plurality of limiting protrusions 31. The mounting holes 11 of this embodiment include hoisting holes and component holes, and the hoisting holes and component holes are evenly distributed on the surface of the end plate body 10. The hoisting holes can cooperate with the external hoisting structure to hoist the module, and the component holes can be used for installation operations of other components. According to actual needs, a hole can be made on the end plate body 10 by laser drilling, and the bracket mounting position 21 on the mounting plate 20 can be used to install the bracket 300. The existence of the limiting protrusion 31 makes it easier for the steel belt 200 to be inserted between the two limiting protrusions 31 when assembling the module, thereby fixing the module; when the module is assembled, the battery cell 100 returns to its natural state, and the steel belt 200 will be subjected to the expansion force of the battery cell 100 and be subjected to force. At this time, the limiting protrusion 31 of the steel belt 200 will clamp the steel belt 200 to ensure that the steel belt 200 will not detach from the module.
[0030] In this embodiment, there are two bracket mounting positions 21, which are located on both sides of the mounting plate 20 to install the bracket 300. The limiting protrusions 31 are arranged in groups of two to limit the steel belt 200. During the assembly process, the steel belt 200 is located between the two limiting protrusions 31 to achieve the limitation of the steel belt 200. The surface of the limiting protrusion 31 of this embodiment has chamfered corners and a draft angle to improve the limiting effect of the steel belt 200.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, the mounting block 30 of this embodiment is a columnar structure. The mounting block 30 is provided with a columnar hole 32 along the length direction for mounting the screw 400, thereby meeting the assembly requirements of the module.
[0032] In this embodiment, the cylindrical hole 32 is a U-shaped hole, and an observation hole 33 is provided at the bottom of the mounting block 30 to observe the screw 400 to see whether the screw 400 is aligned with the hole position, thereby reducing the time for installation and adjustment.
[0033] In actual use, the module end plate structure of this embodiment is installed at the end of the battery cell 100, and can install the steel belt 200, the bracket 300 and the screw 400 to achieve reinforced fixation of the battery cell 100. The module end plate structure adopts an integrated molding process, and is installed at the end of the battery cell 100, which can effectively reinforce and fix the battery cell 100. Its structural strength is high, which improves the reinforcement effect of the battery cell 100 and is conducive to the hoisting of the module. The use of an integrated molding processing structure can effectively reduce costs.
