The plastic component 2 is provided with a first plastic part 21 and a second plastic part 22. The first plastic part 21 and the second plastic part 22 can be formed by integral injection molding or manufactured separately and then connected by fasteners. The first plastic part 21 is connected to the upper part of the battery cover 1 and is located in the electrode slot 11, and the second plastic part 22 is connected to the lower part of the battery cover 1. The first plastic part 21 has a receiving groove 214 for accommodating a connecting piece 4, which is used to electrically connect to the positive or negative electrode. In this embodiment, two first plastic parts 21 are provided, and the two first plastic parts 21 are respectively located in the two electrode grooves 11. The battery cover 1, the first plastic part 21, and the second plastic part 22 collectively form a via for the electrode tab to pass through. The ends of the electrode tab are respectively electrically connected to the battery cell and the connecting piece 4. The second plastic part 22 is provided with a shaping slanted wall 224. The shaping slanted wall 224 is used to shape the electrode tab and guide it into the via. Specifically, one end of the electrode tab is electrically connected to the battery cell, while the other end is controlled by the shaping slanted wall 224 to be bent and directed into the via. After passing through the via, the electrode tab passes through the second plastic part 22, the battery cover 1, and the first plastic part 21 from bottom to top, and then electrically connects to the connecting piece 4 located in the receiving groove 214 of the first plastic part 21.

Figure 12 The first through hole 12, the second through hole 213 and the third through hole 221 jointly form a through hole for the band 3 to pass through. The two first through holes 12, the two second through holes 213 and the two third through holes 221 jointly form two oppositely arranged through holes, and the band 3 passes through the two through holes to be arranged. The band 3 in the embodiment can be arranged as a tape or an elastic band. When the band 3 is arranged as a tape, the tape passes through one of the through holes and is bonded to the inner side wall of the through hole, then is selectively bonded to one of the bottom of the second plastic part 22 and the connecting piece 4 according to different arrangement directions, passes through the other through hole and is bonded to the inner side wall of the other through hole, and then is bonded to the other of the bottom of the second plastic part 22 and the connecting piece 4, so as to realize the binding of the connecting piece 4 and fix the connecting piece 4 in the accommodating groove 214. When the band 3 is arranged as an elastic band, the elastic band is pulled with a certain pre-tightening force, so that the elastic band passes through one of the through holes and abuts against the inner side wall of the through hole, then abuts against one of the bottom of the second plastic part 22 and the connecting piece 4 according to different arrangement directions, passes through the other through hole and abuts against the inner side wall of the other through hole, then abuts against the other of the bottom of the second plastic part 22 and the connecting piece 4, and the two ends of the elastic band are tied, so as to fix the connecting piece 4 in the accommodating groove 214.

[0039] Specifically, please refer to Figures 1-4 To further fix the connecting piece 4 in the accommodating groove 214, the band 3 is arranged in plurality, and the plurality of bands 3 are distributed along the length direction of the through hole. In the embodiment, the band 3 is preferably arranged in two, and the two bands 3 are distributed along the length direction of the through hole, which avoids occupying too much installation space and affecting the arrangement of other parts on the premise of ensuring the fixing effect. The battery cover plate 1 in the embodiment is provided with two electrode grooves 11, and each electrode groove 11 is provided with a connecting piece 4, and each connecting piece 4 is fixed in the corresponding accommodating groove 214 by the two bands 3.

[0040] In the embodiment, the binding tape 3 is preferably adhesive tape, which is attached to the outside of the connecting sheet 4 and the plastic assembly 2, and is provided in multiple layers. The multiple layers of the adhesive tape are wound around the connecting sheet 4 in a continuous layering manner, and the reliability of the binding of the connecting sheet 4 is increased by providing the adhesive tape in multiple layers.

In the embodiment, the adhesive tape is preferably PET tape, which has good dimensional stability, thermal stability, and chemical stability, good initial adhesion and holding adhesion, and good adhesion to plastic parts, and thus the use of the PET tape for binding can further increase the reliability.

[0041] Further, referring to Figures 3-4 , in combination with Figures 8-9 , the bottom of the second plastic part 22 is provided with a first wall 222 and a second wall 223 distributed in steps, the first wall 222 and the second wall 223 are arranged in parallel, and the second wall 223 is located in the direction away from the battery cover plate 1. The third through hole 221 is arranged on the first wall 222, and the first wall 222 and the second wall 223 are connected by a shaped inclined wall 224, so as to control the bending and direction of the electrode tab, realize the shaping of the electrode tab, and avoid the problem of short circuit caused by contact with the shell.

[0042] Further, as shown in Figures 6-11As shown, the first plastic part 21 comprises a fixedly connected support plate 211 and a frame 212, which can be connected by fasteners or integrally formed. In this embodiment, the support plate 211 and the frame 212 are preferably integrally formed. The support plate 211 is located in the electrode slot 11, and the frame 212 is located above the support plate 211. The frame 212 and the support plate 211 jointly form a containing groove 214 and a second through hole 213. In order to facilitate installation, the size of the electrode slot 11 is larger than the size of the support plate 211, and the size of the frame 212 is set in a manner that can accommodate the connecting piece 4 and meet the mechanical and electrical performance, i.e., the size of the frame 212 is determined in a manner that facilitates lightweight while meeting the installation of the first plastic part 21. The geometric centers of the support plate 211 and the frame 212 are coincident, and the outer edge of the support plate 211 is located outside the outer edge of the frame 212. Correspondingly, as shown in Figure 7 As shown, the distance between the outer edge of the frame 212 and the outer edge of the support plate 211 is L, which is 1-10 mm, such as 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, or 10 mm. Under the premise of facilitating installation, the size of the support plate 211 is prevented from being too large to increase the weight.

Therefore, H≤0.5T, i.e., the distance between the bottom surface of the containing groove 214 and the upper end surface of the battery cover plate 1 is less than or equal to 0.5 times the thickness of the battery cover plate 1, such as 0.5, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, or 0.1 times the thickness of the battery cover plate 1. Under the premise of meeting the strength requirement of the battery cover plate 1, the space utilization is further improved.

[0044] Alternatively, please refer to Figures 1-10 As shown, the installation groove 13 for installing the explosion-proof valve 5 can also be provided on the battery cover plate 1 according to requirements, and the liquid injection hole 14 can also be provided according to requirements.
