[0151] In some embodiments, k is in the range of 1.0-1.5.
[0152] For example, k can be 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, etc.
[0153] In the technical scheme, the ratio k of the bending radius of the bent pipe section 52 to the width of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is not less than 1.0, which can reduce the process difficulty of the heat exchange unit 5 in the bending process, and the ratio k of the bending radius of the bent pipe section 52 to the width of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is not greater than 1.5, which can make the pipe arrangement density of the heat exchange unit 5 large, thereby the heat exchange area of the heat exchange unit 5 and the battery monomer assembly 20 can be large, thereby the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchange assembly 50 per unit area can be improved, and by setting the ratio k of the bending radius of the bent pipe section 52 to the width of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a in the range of 1.0-1.5, the bending process difficulty and the heat exchange area of the heat exchange unit 5 can be better balanced, the processing difficulty of the heat exchange assembly 50 is reduced and the heat exchange area is large.
[0154] In some embodiments, with reference to Figure 5 and Figure 6The plurality of straight pipe sections 51 in the single heat exchange flow channel part 5a includes a plurality of first straight pipe sections 511 arranged in the first direction in sequence and at intervals, each first straight pipe section 511 extending in the second direction, and the plurality of elbow pipe sections 52 in the single heat exchange flow channel part 5a includes a first elbow pipe section 521 connected between the same end of two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the second direction, and the orthographic projection of the first straight pipe section 511 and the first elbow pipe section 521 in the third direction is located within the orthographic projection of the battery monomer assembly 20 in the third direction, and the third direction, the second direction, and the first direction intersect each other in pairs.
[0155] The first direction can refer to the X direction in the drawings, the second direction can refer to the Y direction in the drawings, and the third direction can refer to the Z direction in the drawings. The thickness direction of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a can be consistent with the third direction.
[0156] In the above technical solution, by arranging the plurality of first straight pipe sections 511 of the single heat exchange unit 5 in the first direction and connecting the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 through the first elbow pipe section 521, the arrangement density of the pipe of the heat exchange unit 5 can be improved, thereby further improving the heat exchange area of the heat exchange unit 5 and the battery monomer assembly 20, and the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchange assembly 50 per unit area can be improved, and the temperature regulation efficiency of the heat exchange assembly 50 for the battery monomer assembly 20 can be further improved.
[0157] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The extension length L of the first straight pipe section 511 is greater than or equal to 50 mm.
[0158] For example, the extension length L of the first straight pipe section 511 is 50 mm, 55 mm, 60 mm, 65 mm, 70 mm, 75 mm, 80 mm, 90 mm, etc.
[0159] In the above technical solution, in the process of bending the heat exchange flow channel part 5a of the heat exchange unit 5 using a bending die to form the first straight pipe section 511 and the first elbow pipe section 521 connected between the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511, the first straight pipe section 511 needs to be clamped and fixed to be bent to form the first elbow pipe section 521. By arranging the first straight pipe section 511 in the first direction with an extension length of not less than 50 mm, the first straight pipe section 511 has a longer length for clamping and fixing, which improves the clamping and fixing reliability of the first straight pipe section 511, thereby improving the bending forming quality of the heat exchange unit 5.
[0160] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6The interval d1 of the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction is greater than the width W of the first straight pipe section 511 in the same heat exchange runner part 5a.
[0161] In the above technical solution, by making the interval d1 of the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction greater than the width W of the first straight pipe section 511 in the same heat exchange runner part 5a, the bending process difficulty of the first bent pipe section 521 of the heat exchange unit 5 can be reduced.
[0162] In some embodiments, the ratio of the interval d1 of the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction to the width W of the first straight pipe section 511 is less than 2 in the same heat exchange runner part 5a.
[0163] For example, the ratio of the interval d1 of the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction to the width W of the first straight pipe section 511 is 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, etc. in the same heat exchange runner part 5a.
[0164] In the above technical solution, on the basis of making the interval d1 of the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction greater than the width W of the first straight pipe section 511 in the same heat exchange runner part 5a, while making the ratio of the interval d1 of the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction to the width W of the first straight pipe section 511 less than 2 in the same heat exchange runner part 5a, that is, making the ratio of the interval d1 of the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction to the width W of the first straight pipe section 511 greater than 1 and less than 2, the arrangement density of the plurality of first straight pipe sections 511 along the first direction can be made larger while reducing the bending process difficulty of the first bent pipe section 521 of the heat exchange unit 5, and the heat exchange area of the heat exchange unit 5 and the battery monomer assembly 20 can be increased, so that the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchange assembly 50 per unit area can be improved, and the bending process difficulty and heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange unit 5 can be better balanced.
[0165] In some embodiments, the ratio of the extension length of the first straight pipe section 511 to the extension length of the first bent pipe section 521 is 0.7-2.
[0166] For example, the ratio of the extension length of the first straight pipe section 511 to the extension length of the first bent pipe section 521 is 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2, etc.
[0167] In the technical solution, the ratio of the extension length of the first straight pipe section 511 to the extension length of the first bent pipe section 521 is not less than 0.7, so that the extension length of the first bent pipe section 521 is relatively large, and the first bent pipe section 521 has a large bending radius, so that the bending process difficulty of the first bent pipe section 521 is reduced, and meanwhile, the ratio of the extension length of the first straight pipe section 511 to the extension length of the first bent pipe section 521 is not greater than 2, so that the extension length of the first bent pipe section 521 is appropriate, so that the spacing of the adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction is not too large, and the ratio of the extension length of the first straight pipe section 511 to the extension length of the first bent pipe section 521 is 0.7-2, so that the bending process difficulty and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange unit 5 are well balanced.
[0168] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 all the first straight pipe sections 511 and all the first bent pipe sections 521 in a single heat exchange flow channel part 5a constitute a bent body 53, and the heat exchange unit 5 is multiple, and the bent bodies 53 of the multiple heat exchange units 5 are arranged in sequence in the first direction.
[0169] The single heat exchange unit 5 has one heat exchange flow channel part 5a, and all the first straight pipe sections 511 and all the first bent pipe sections 521 in the single heat exchange flow channel part 5a constitute a bent body 53, which can be understood as: all the first straight pipe sections 511 and all the first bent pipe sections 521 in the single heat exchange unit 5 constitute a bent body 53. In this way, each heat exchange unit 5 has one bent body 53, and multiple heat exchange units 5 have multiple bent bodies 53.
[0170] In the technical solution, the heat exchange unit 5 is provided as multiple, so that the heat exchange area of the heat exchange assembly 50 is increased, and the bent bodies 53 of the multiple heat exchange units 5 are arranged in sequence in the first direction, so that the arrangement density of the multiple heat exchange units 5 is increased, so that the arrangement density of the pipelines of the entire heat exchange assembly 50 is large, so that the heat exchange area of the heat exchange assembly 50 and the battery monomer assembly 20 is better improved, so that the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchange assembly 50 per unit area is improved, so that the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange assembly 50 for the battery monomer assembly 20 is better improved.
[0171] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 the spacing of the adjacent two first straight pipe sections 511 in the same bent body 53 in the first direction is d1, the spacing of the adjacent two first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction in the adjacent two bent bodies 53 is d2, and d2 is less than d1.
[0172] In the technical solution, the interval d2 of the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction of the two adjacent bending main bodies 53 is not affected by the bending process, and by setting the interval of the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the first direction to be relatively small, the pipe arrangement density of the heat exchange assembly 50 can be increased without increasing the difficulty of the bending process, thereby increasing the heat exchange area of the heat exchange assembly 50 and the battery monomer assembly 20, and improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange assembly 50 on the battery monomer assembly 20.
[0173] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 all the first straight pipe sections 511 and all the first bent pipe sections 521 in a single heat exchange flow channel part 5a constitute a bending main body 53, and the plurality of straight pipe sections 51 in the single heat exchange flow channel part 5a include second straight pipe sections 512, the second straight pipe sections 512 in the same heat exchange flow channel part 5a are located on at least one side of the bending main body 53 along the second direction, and the second straight pipe sections 512 extend along the first direction and are connected to the first straight pipe sections 511 in the same heat exchange flow channel part 5a.

[0177] In the technical solution, the minimum distance d3 between the first elbow section 521 and the second straight section 512 in the same heat exchange runner part 5a is not less than 20 mm, so that the second straight section 512 and the first elbow section 521 have a larger distance, which can reduce the risk of interference between the second straight section 512 and the first elbow section 521 during the bending process of the heat exchange runner part 5a by the bending die, and can reduce the bending process difficulty of the heat exchange runner part 5a while improving the arrangement density of the heat exchange runner part 5a to improve the heat exchange efficiency.

[0183] In the above technical solution, by utilizing the feature that the distance between the first elbow section 521 and the second straight section 512 of different heat exchange units 5 is not limited by the bending process, the distance between the first elbow section 521 and the second straight section 512 of different heat exchange units 5 is set to be smaller, which can increase the pipe arrangement density of the heat exchange assembly 50, thereby increasing the heat exchange area of the heat exchange assembly 50, and thus improving the heat exchange area of the heat exchange assembly 50 and the battery monomer assembly 20, thereby improving the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchange assembly 50 per unit area, and thus better improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange assembly 50 for the battery monomer assembly 20.
[0184] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The plurality of straight sections 51 in the second heat exchange unit 502 further include a third straight section 513 and a fourth straight section 514. In the first direction, the third straight section 513 is located on the side of the bending body 53 in the second heat exchange unit 502 away from the bending body 53 in the first heat exchange unit 501, and the third straight section 513 extends in the second direction.

[0187] In the above technical solution, by connecting the second straight pipe section 512 and the third straight pipe section 513 of the second heat exchange unit 502 and the third straight pipe section 513 and the fourth straight pipe section 514 through the bent pipe sections 52, the pipe arrangement density of the heat exchange assembly 50 can be increased, the heat exchange area of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a can be increased, the heat exchange area between the heat exchange assembly 50 and the battery monomer assembly 20 can be increased, the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchange assembly 50 per unit area can be increased, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange assembly 50 on the battery monomer assembly 20 can be improved.
[0188] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the distance between the third straight pipe section 513 and the nearest first straight pipe section 511 in the first heat exchange unit 501 in the first direction is d5, and the ratio of d5 to d1 is 0.7-1.5.
[0189] For example, the ratio of d5 to d1 is 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, etc.
[0190] In the above technical solution, the third straight pipe section 513 of the second heat exchange unit 502 and the plurality of first straight pipe sections 511 of the two heat exchange units 5 are arranged in the first direction, and by setting the ratio of the distance d5 between the third straight pipe section 513 and the nearest first straight pipe section 511 in the first heat exchange unit 501 to the distance d1 between the two adjacent first straight pipe sections 511 in the same heat exchange flow channel part 5a in the first direction to be 0.7-1.5, the distance between the straight pipe sections 51 arranged in the first direction can be uniform, and the temperature regulation of the heat exchange assembly 50 on the battery monomer 301 can be uniform.

[0192] For example, the shape of the outer shape of the battery cell 301 can be a cuboid, and the thickness direction of the battery cell 301 refers to the direction in which the smallest dimension among the three dimensions of length, width, and height of the battery cell 301 is located.
[0193] In the technical solution described above, by making the spacing d6 between the fourth straight pipe section 514 and the adjacent second straight pipe section 512 in the second direction smaller than the thickness dimension t of the battery cell 301 in the second direction, the spacing between the fourth straight pipe section 514 and the adjacent second straight pipe section 512 in the second direction is smaller, which can avoid the situation that a single battery cell 301 is completely opposite to the gap between the fourth straight pipe section 514 and the adjacent second straight pipe section 512 and cannot achieve effective heat exchange, so that the battery cell 301 opposite to the gap between the fourth straight pipe section 514 and the adjacent second straight pipe section 512 can be in heat-conducting contact with the heat exchange flow channel part 5a to be effectively temperature-regulated.
[0194] In some embodiments, the ratio of d6 to t is 0.3-0.8.

[0202] For example, each battery monomer row 30 corresponds to one first straight pipe segment 511, and the projection of the first straight pipe segment 511 along the third direction is located in the projection of the battery monomer row 30 along the third direction.
[0203] For another example, each battery monomer row 30 corresponds to two first straight pipe segments 511, and the projections of the two first straight pipe segments 511 along the third direction are located in the projection of the battery monomer row 30 along the third direction.
[0204] In the technical solution, the projection of the first straight pipe segment 511 corresponding to each battery monomer row 30 along the third direction is located in the projection of the corresponding battery monomer row 30 along the third direction, so that each first straight pipe segment 511 can be in sufficient contact with the corresponding battery monomer row 30, and the heat exchange of the first straight pipe segment 511 can be fully utilized to regulate the temperature of the battery monomer 301, and the heat exchange efficiency of the first straight pipe segment 511 is improved.
[0205] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 , each of at least part of the battery cell rows 30 corresponds to a plurality of first straight pipe segments 511.
[0206] Each of at least part of the battery cell rows 30 corresponding to a plurality of first straight pipe segments 511 includes, for example, a case where one battery cell row 30 corresponds to a plurality of first straight pipe segments 511, for another example, a case where each of a plurality of battery cell rows 30 corresponds to a plurality of first straight pipe segments 511, and for another example, a case where each of the battery cell rows 30 corresponds to a plurality of first straight pipe segments 511.
[0207] In the above technical solution, by making each of at least part of the battery cell rows 30 correspond to a plurality of first straight pipe segments 511, the plurality of first straight pipe segments 511 can be used for heat exchange with a single battery cell row 30, thereby improving the temperature regulation efficiency of a single battery cell row 30.
[0208] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 , each of at least part of the battery cell rows 30 corresponds to the same number of first straight pipe segments 511.
[0209] Each of at least part of the battery cell rows 30 corresponds to the same number of first straight pipe segments 511, including, for example, a case where each of two battery cell rows 30 corresponds to the same number of first straight pipe segments 511, and for another example, a case where each of the battery cell rows 30 corresponds to the same number of first straight pipe segments 511.
[0210] In the above technical solution, by making each of at least part of the battery cell rows 30 correspond to the same number of first straight pipe segments 511, the heat exchange of at least part of the battery cell rows 30 can be more uniform, so that the temperature regulation of different battery cell rows 30 can be more uniform.

[0212] Different bending main bodies 53 are used for heat exchange with different battery monomer rows 30, that is, the number of bending main bodies 53 is the same as the number of battery monomer rows 30 and each bending main body 53 is used for heat exchange with a corresponding battery monomer row 30.
[0213] In the above technical solution, the heat exchange unit 5 is provided as a plurality of units, which can increase the heat exchange area of the heat exchange assembly 50, and the bending main bodies 53 of the plurality of heat exchange units 5 are arranged in sequence along the first direction, which can increase the arrangement density of the plurality of heat exchange units 5, so that the arrangement density of the pipelines of the entire heat exchange assembly 50 is relatively large, and the heat exchange area of the heat exchange assembly 50 is better improved, so that the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange assembly 50 for the battery monomer assembly 20 can be better improved; and by making different bending main bodies 53 exchange heat with different battery monomer rows 30, different battery monomer rows 30 can be effectively and uniformly heat exchanged.
[0214] In some embodiments, with reference to Figure 5 , at least one heat exchange unit 5 satisfies the relationship W=(N*A-B) / (X*N+(X*N-1)*(2k-1)), N is the total number of battery monomer rows 30, the number of first straight pipe sections 511 corresponding to each battery monomer row 30 is the same and is X, A is the size of a single battery monomer row 30 in the first direction, the two sides of the bending main body 53 along the first direction are respectively the first side edge 531 and the second side edge 532, the two side edges of the battery monomer row 30 heat exchanged with the same bending main body 53 along the first direction are respectively the first side edge 31 and the second side edge 32, the bending main body 53 is located between the first side edge 31 and the second side edge 32, the first side edge 531 is adjacent to the first side edge 31 and the distance between the first side edge 531 and the first side edge 31 in the first direction is B1, the second side edge 532 is adjacent to the second side edge 32 and the distance between the second side edge 532 and the second side edge 32 in the first direction is B2, and B is the sum of B1 and B2.
[0215] In the above technical solution, by making at least one heat exchange unit 5 satisfy the formula W=(N*A-B) / (X*N+(X*N-1)*(2k-1)), the formula can be used as a bending selection design parameter constraint, and when the bending heat exchange unit 5 is processed, the selection model can be input according to the requirements, so that the processing and bending process of heat exchange units 5 of different specifications and sizes can be quickly selected.
[0216] In some embodiments, with reference to Figure 5 , the width W of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is greater than the thickness t of the battery monomer 301.
[0217] In the technical solution, the width W of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is greater than the thickness t of the battery monomer 301, so that the width of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is large, the heat exchange area of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is increased, the heat exchange area between the heat exchange assembly 50 and the battery monomer assembly 20 is increased, the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchange assembly 50 per unit area is increased, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange assembly 50 on the battery monomer assembly 20 is improved.
[0218] In some embodiments, the ratio of the width W of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a to the thickness t of the battery monomer 301 is less than 2.
[0219] For example, the ratio of the width W of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a to the thickness t of the battery monomer 301 is 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, etc.
[0220] In the technical solution, the width W of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is greater than the thickness t of the battery monomer 301, so that the width of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is large, the heat exchange area of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is increased, the heat exchange area between the heat exchange assembly 50 and the battery monomer assembly 20 is increased, the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchange assembly 50 per unit area is increased, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange assembly 50 on the battery monomer assembly 20 is improved.
[0221] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 3-5 , the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is formed as a heat exchange flat tube, the thickness direction of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is consistent with the third direction, and at least one side surface of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a in the thickness direction is in thermal contact or thermal connection with the battery monomer assembly 20.
[0222] The cross section of the heat exchange flat tube can be rectangular.
[0223] The heat exchange flow channel part 5a is in thermal contact with the battery monomer assembly 20, which can be that the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is directly in contact with the battery monomer assembly 20.
[0224] The heat exchange flow channel part 5a is in thermal connection with the battery monomer assembly 20, which can be that the heat exchange flow channel part 5a and the battery monomer assembly 20 are in thermal connection through a heat conduction structure, for example, the heat exchange flow channel part 5a and the battery monomer assembly 20 are in thermal connection through a heat conduction adhesive layer.
[0225] In the above technical solution, by setting the heat exchange runner part 5a as a heat exchange flat tube, and by making at least one side surface of the heat exchange runner part 5a in the thickness direction in thermal contact or thermal connection with the battery monomer assembly 20, the thermal conduction area of the heat exchange runner part 5a and the battery monomer assembly 20 can be increased, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange unit 5 for the battery monomer assembly 20 can be improved.
[0226] In some embodiments, with reference to Figures 3-6 , the surface of the heat exchange runner part 5a in thermal contact or thermal connection with the battery monomer assembly 20 is the heat exchange surface 54, and the heat exchange surface 54 is a plane.
[0227] At least one side surface of the heat exchange runner part 5a in the thickness direction is formed as the heat exchange surface 54, and the heat exchange surface 54 is in thermal contact or thermal connection with the battery monomer assembly 20.
[0228] In the above technical solution, by setting the heat exchange surface 54 of the heat exchange runner part 5a as a plane, the heat exchange runner part 5a can be better attached to the battery monomer 301, the thermal conduction area of the heat exchange runner part 5a and the battery monomer assembly 20 can be increased, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange unit 5 for the battery monomer assembly 20 can be improved.

[0233] For example, the ratio of the first projection area to the second projection area is 2 / 5, 1 / 2, 3 / 5, 2 / 3, 4 / 5, etc.
[0234] In the above technical solution, by making the ratio of the total projected area of all heat exchange units 5 along the third direction to the total projected area of all battery cells 301 along the third direction greater than 1 / 3, the heat conduction area between the heat exchange unit 5 and the battery cell assembly 20 can be larger, resulting in higher heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange assembly 50 for the battery cell assembly 20.

[0236] Among them, the flow divider 5b can be integrally formed with the heat exchange channel section 5a.
[0237] In the above technical solution, by providing a flow divider 5b extending along the extension direction of the heat exchange channel 5a in the heat exchange channel 51a, the flow area of the heat exchange channel 51a can be divided to achieve a smaller flow area, which is beneficial to improving the heat exchange effect between the heat exchange channel 5a and the battery cell assembly 20; and it can also improve the structural strength of the heat exchange channel 5a.
[0238] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The flow divider 5b divides the heat exchange channel 51a into multiple sub-channels 511a arranged side by side and separated from each other. The multiple sub-channels 511a are arranged along the width direction of the heat exchange channel section 5a.
[0239] In the above technical solution, by dividing the heat exchange channel 51a into multiple sub-channels 511a arranged side by side and separated from each other by the flow divider 5b provided in the heat exchange channel 51a, the heat exchange medium in the heat exchange channel 51a can flow along multiple sub-channels 511a with smaller flow areas, which can further improve the heat exchange effect between the heat exchange channel section 5a and the battery cell assembly 20; and further improve the structural strength of the heat exchange channel section 5a.
[0240] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 7 The heat exchange channel section 5a is formed as a heat exchange flat tube, and the ratio of the thickness dimension e1 of the flow divider 5b in the width direction of the heat exchange channel section 5a to the wall thickness e2 of the heat exchange flat tube is 0.7 to 1.2.
[0241] For example, the ratio of the thickness of the flow divider 5b in the width direction of the heat exchange channel 5a to the wall thickness of the heat exchange flat tube is 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, etc.
[0242] In the technical solution, the heat exchange flow channel part 5a is arranged as a heat exchange flat tube, so that the heat conduction area of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a and the battery monomer assembly 20 is increased, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange unit 5 on the battery monomer assembly 20 is improved; and the ratio of the thickness dimension of the flow dividing rib 5b in the width direction of the heat exchange flow channel part 5a to the wall thickness of the heat exchange flat tube is 0.7-1.2, so that the flow dividing rib 5b has high structural strength, and the flow dividing rib 5b occupies less space in the heat exchange flow channel 51a.
[0243] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 3-6 , the heat exchange unit 5 is multiple, and the multiple heat exchange units 5 are arranged in parallel.
[0244] For example, the heat exchange assembly 50 includes an inlet and outlet structure 60, the inlet and outlet structure 60 has an inlet port 61 and an outlet port 62, each heat exchange unit 5 is connected with the inlet and outlet structure 60, the inlet and outlet structure 60 has an inlet cavity and an outlet cavity 63 which are separated from each other, the inlet port 61 is communicated with the inlet cavity, the outlet port 62 is communicated with the outlet cavity 63, one end of each heat exchange unit 5 is communicated with the inlet cavity, and the other end of each heat exchange unit 5 is communicated with the outlet cavity 63. The heat exchange medium flows into the inlet cavity from the inlet port 61 of the inlet and outlet structure 60, and then flows into the heat exchange flow channel 51a of the multiple heat exchange units 5 respectively and flows along the heat exchange flow channel 51a of the multiple heat exchange units 5 respectively. After the heat exchange medium flows through the multiple heat exchange units 5 respectively, the heat exchange medium converges into the outlet cavity 63 of the inlet and outlet structure 60, and then flows out from the outlet port 62.

[0248] In the technical solution, the inlet and outlet liquid structure 60 of the heat exchange assembly 50 is arranged at one end of the heat exchange assembly 50 along the first direction, so that the inlet and outlet liquid structure 60 on the heat exchange assembly 50 is connected with external related components.
[0249] In some embodiments, the ratio of the extension lengths of the heat exchange flow channel parts 5a of any two heat exchange units 5 is 0.8-1.2.
[0250] For example, the ratio of the extension lengths of the heat exchange flow channel parts 5a of any two heat exchange units 5 is 0.8, 0.9, 1, 1.1, 1.2, etc.
[0251] In the technical solution, the extension lengths of the heat exchange flow channel parts 5a of the plurality of heat exchange units 5 are close to each other, so that the heat exchange capacities of each heat exchange unit 5 are equivalent, the heat exchange is more uniform, and the overall heat exchange capacity of the heat exchange assembly 50 is stronger.
[0252] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1-4 , the heat exchange assembly 50 is arranged in the box body 10.
[0253] In the technical solution, the heat exchange assembly 50 is arranged in the box body 10, so that the heat exchange assembly 50 is in better thermal contact with the battery monomer assembly 20, the thermal resistance between the heat exchange assembly 50 and the battery monomer assembly 20 is reduced, and the heat exchange efficiency is improved.

[0255] The shape of the containing groove 112 is matched with the shape of the heat exchange unit 5, including that the extension trajectory of the containing groove 112 is consistent with the extension trajectory of the heat exchange unit 5.
[0256] In the technical solution, the containing groove 112 for arranging the heat exchange unit 5 is arranged on the inner wall of the box body 10, so that the installation and positioning of the unit are facilitated.
[0257] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 2-3 , the inner wall of the box body 10 is formed with a plurality of convex ribs 111, and the plurality of convex ribs 111 cooperatively define the containing groove 112.
[0258] In the technical solution, the plurality of convex ribs 111 are arranged on the inner wall of the box body 10, and the containing groove 112 is defined by the plurality of convex ribs 111, so that the forming process of the containing groove 112 is facilitated, and the plurality of convex ribs 111 can improve the structural strength of the box body 10.
[0259] In some embodiments, referring toFigures 2-3 Part of the box 10 is protruded inwardly to form a plurality of ribs 111.
[0260] In the above technical solution, by making part of the box 10 protrude inwardly to form a plurality of ribs 111, the processing of the ribs 111 is facilitated, and while improving the structural strength of the box 10 through the plurality of ribs 111, the weight of the box 10 is not increased.

[0266] In the above technical solution, by arranging the mounting beam 12 on the bottom plate 11, the battery monomer assembly 20 is facilitated to be installed and fixed on the bottom plate 11.
[0267] In some embodiments, the ratio of the size of the box 10 in the first direction to the size of the box 10 in the second direction is greater than 2, and the second direction intersects the first direction.
[0268] For example, the ratio of the size of the box 10 in the first direction to the size of the box 10 in the second direction is 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, 3, 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8, 4, etc.

[0270] In some embodiments, a ratio of a dimension of the case 10 in a third direction to a dimension of the case 10 in a second direction is less than 0.3, the third direction intersecting the second direction.
[0271] In the technical solution described above, by setting the dimension of the case 10 in the up-down direction to be small, the battery device 100 as a whole can be flat, which can reduce the occupation of the battery device 100 in the Z direction space of the vehicle when the battery device 100 is used in the vehicle, and is conducive to the layout of other components in the vehicle; and when the battery device 100 is installed at the bottom of the vehicle, the bottom surface height position of the battery device 100 will not be too low to cause easy scratch damage, and the risk of scratch damage of the battery device 100 during vehicle driving can be reduced.
