[0010] Furthermore, the reinforcement plate is made of glass fiber epoxy resin copper clad laminate flame retardant material.

[0011] Furthermore, the edges of the four corners of the FPC are arc lines.

[0012] Further, the fuse includes a standby fuse and a main fuse, the main fuse is directly connected between the welding point of the connector and the collection nickel sheet, the standby fuse is connected with the collection nickel sheet at one end and connected with a maintenance pad at the other end, the maintenance pad includes an A pad connected with the welding point of the connector and a B pad connected with the standby fuse, and the standby fuse is started by connecting the A pad and the B pad when the collection circuit is short-circuited.

[0013] Further, the fuse adopts a snake-shaped copper foil fuse.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the beneficial effects that:

[0015] (1) Based on the characteristics of the hard circuit board and the flexible circuit board, and combined with the PACK structure requirement of the power battery pack, a collection plate with light weight, high reliability, convenient installation and maintenance is designed.

[0016] (2) The product internal space is saved, and the finished product volume and weight are reduced.

[0023] AsFigure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the present embodiment provides a collection board suitable for use in a battery module box, comprising a connector 11, an FPC board 10, a collection nickel sheet 12, and a reinforcement board. The FPC board 10 is in the shape of an elongated strip as a whole, with a connector 11 mounted on its end, and several collection nickel sheets 12 mounted on both sides along the length direction. A locking hole 13 is provided at the end of the collection sheet away from the FPC board 10, and the locking hole 13 is connected to the battery pole. The number of the collection nickel sheets 12 is related to the number of batteries in the battery pack and is used to collect the voltage information of the batteries.

[0024] A reinforcing plate is provided on the other side of the FPC soft board 10 between the nickel sheet 12 and the connector 11 to effectively enhance the reliability of the FPC and prevent it from breaking or tearing. The reinforcing plate in this embodiment is made of a flame-resistant glass fiber epoxy resin copper clad laminate.
