[0045] Please refer to Figures 1 to 2In some embodiments of the present application, the battery pack comprises at least one battery group 1 and an integrated busbar 2, the battery group 1 comprises a plurality of batteries 11, and the output ends 110 of the plurality of batteries 11 are located on the same side of the battery group 1; the integrated busbar 2 comprises at least one connecting piece 211, and the connecting piece 211 connects the output ends 110 of two adjacent batteries 11 in the battery group 1; that is, in this embodiment, the connecting piece 211 connects the output ends 110 of two adjacent batteries 11 to realize electrical connection between the two adjacent batteries 11, and the connecting piece 211 will be in a serious heating condition when the battery pack is in a fast charging working condition.
[0046] In some embodiments of the present application, the battery pack comprises a first liquid cooling plate 3, and the first liquid cooling plate 3 is arranged on the side of the connecting piece 211 away from the battery group 1; wherein the first liquid cooling plate 3 is provided with a first liquid cooling flow channel 31, and the first liquid cooling flow channel 31 is arranged opposite to the connecting piece 211; that is, the first liquid cooling flow channel 31 on the first liquid cooling plate 3 can cool and heat dissipate the connecting piece 211.
[0047] In the technical solution of the present application, by arranging the first liquid cooling plate 3 opposite to the output end 110 of the battery 11 in the battery pack, the first liquid cooling flow channel 31 in the first liquid cooling plate 3 can cool and heat dissipate the connecting piece 211 connecting the output end 110 of the battery 11, so that the heat dissipation of the connecting piece 211 can be realized when the battery pack is in a fast charging working condition, thereby reducing the influence of the heating of the connecting piece 211 on the battery pack.
[0048] Wherein, the arrangement mode of the plurality of batteries 11 in the battery group 1 can be that the plurality of batteries 11 are arranged in a single direction, such as the plurality of batteries 11 are arranged in the first direction X or the plurality of batteries 11 are arranged in the third direction Y; or the plurality of batteries 11 can be arranged in an array on a certain plane, such as the plurality of batteries 11 are arranged in an array on the plane of the first direction X and the third direction Y.
[0049] It should be noted that the arrangement mode of the plurality of batteries 11 in the battery group 1 is not limited, as long as the first liquid cooling flow channel 31 on the first liquid cooling plate 3 is opposite to the connecting piece 211 and can cool and heat dissipate the connecting piece 211 after the first liquid cooling plate 3 is assembled with the battery group 1.
[0050] And the first liquid cooling flow channel 31 can also cool and heat dissipate the battery 11 while cooling and heat dissipating the connecting piece 211.
[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, the plurality of batteries 11 in one battery group 1 are arranged in the first direction X, and the output ends 110 of the plurality of batteries 11 are located on one side of the battery group 1 in the second direction Z; wherein each battery 11 comprises two output ends 110, one of which is a positive output end and the other is a negative output end.
[0052] The integrated busbar 2 comprises a connector group 21, the connector group 21 comprises a plurality of connectors 211 arranged in the first direction X, the connectors 211 are located on one side of the battery pack 1 in the second direction Z and connect the output terminals 110 of two adjacent batteries 11; that is, the connectors 211 can connect the positive output terminals and the negative output terminals of two adjacent batteries 11.
[0053] It can be understood that although the plurality of batteries 11 are arranged in the first direction X, the two output terminals 110 located on one battery 11 can be arranged at intervals in the first direction X or can be arranged at intervals in the third direction Y. Please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, the two output terminals 110 located on one battery 11 are arranged at intervals in the third direction Y.
[0054] In some embodiments of the present application, the first liquid cooling channel 31 comprises at least one first channel 311, the first channel 311 extends in the first direction X and is arranged on the side of the connector group 21 away from the battery pack 1; wherein the extension direction of the first channel 311 is the same as the arrangement direction of the plurality of batteries 11 in the battery pack 1, so that the first channel 311 can simultaneously cool the plurality of connectors 211 connecting the plurality of batteries 11 in the battery pack 1, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the first channel 311.
[0055] Among them, the first liquid cooling plate 3 is located on one side of the battery pack 1 in the second direction Z.
[0056] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments of the present application, the first channel 311 comprises at least two first sub-channels 3111, the first sub-channels 3111 extend in the first direction X, and adjacent two first sub-channels 3111 are arranged at intervals in the third direction Y; such arrangement is because the size of the connector 211 in the third direction Y is large, and the size of the first channel 311 in the third direction Y needs to match the size of the connector 211 in the third direction Y, thereby cooling the connector 211; arranging the first channel 311 into at least two first sub-channels 3111 can enhance the structural strength of the first liquid cooling plate 3, thereby reducing the risk of deformation of the first liquid cooling plate 3 at the first channel 311.
[0057] Among them, the number of first sub-channels 3111 can be two, three or more, which is not limited here.
[0058] In addition, adjacent two first sub-channels 3111 in the third direction Y can be connected to each other or can not be connected to each other.

If L is less than 50mm, the first flow channel 311 may not completely cover the connecting piece 211 in the third direction Y, which may result in poor heat dissipation efficiency of the connecting piece 211 by the first liquid cooling plate 3; if L is greater than 70mm, the structural strength of the first liquid cooling plate 3 may be too weak.
[0062] The value of L can be 50mm, 50.5mm, 51mm, 51.5mm, 52mm, 52.5mm, 53mm, 53.5mm, 54mm, 54.5mm, 55mm, 55.5mm, 56mm, 56.5mm, 57mm, 57.5mm, 58mm, 58.5mm, 59mm, 59.5mm, 60mm, 60.5mm, 61mm, 61.5mm, 62mm, 62.5mm, 63mm, 63.5mm, 64mm, 64.5mm, 65mm, 65.5mm, 66mm, 66.5mm, 67mm, 67.5mm, 68mm, 68.5mm, 69mm, 69.5mm, 70mm. The value of L is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in this range are also applicable.
