In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0033] The present application provides a battery, such as Figure 1 - Figure 11As shown, when multiple battery cells 100 are electrically connected together for operation, if one of the battery cells 100 is damaged, it can be directly replaced. It adopts a detachable structure, which makes replacement convenient and quick. The flexible circuit board in this application is an FPC board, which has high reliability and excellent flexibility. It is a printed circuit board with high wiring density, light weight and thin thickness.

[0034] like Figure 1 The battery shown includes a plurality of battery cells 100 and connecting pieces 20 for connecting the plurality of battery cells 100 in series or in parallel. The plurality of battery cells 100 can be connected in series, in parallel, or in a series-parallel combination to form a corresponding battery to meet the different needs of enterprises.

[0035] Among them, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the battery cell 100 includes a terminal post 10, a cell, and a casing. The casing is provided with a positive terminal post 10 and a negative terminal post 10. At least one of the positive and negative terminal posts 10 is insulated from the casing. Preferably, both the positive and negative terminal posts 10 are insulated from the casing. The positive and negative terminal posts 10 can be disposed on the same wall of the casing, or they can be disposed on two non-coplanar walls of the casing. Specifically, see [link to documentation]. Figure 1 As shown, the housing has a first wall and a second wall arranged perpendicularly to each other. The positive polarity terminal 10 and the negative polarity terminal 10 are respectively disposed on the first wall and the second wall of the housing. A first tooth structure 11 is provided on one side of the terminal 10. The first tooth structure 11 is located on the side of the terminal 10 facing the connecting piece 20. In this application, the first tooth structure 11 is located on the surface of the terminal 10 away from the battery cell.

[0036] Continuing, a battery typically comprises multiple battery cells 100, meaning the connecting piece 20 is used to connect two adjacent battery cells 100. Therefore, a second tooth structure 21 is provided on the connecting piece 20, with the second tooth structure 21 located on the side of the connecting piece 20 facing the terminal post 10. Preferably, the connecting piece 20 has second tooth structures 21 on both sides along its length. In this application, the second tooth structure 21 is located on the surface of the connecting piece 20 near the battery cell 100.

[0037] In this application, the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21 are inserted and engaged to achieve positioning. At the same time, in order to make the connection between the connecting piece 20 and the battery cell 100 more secure, the connecting piece 20 and the battery cell 100 are connected in a detachable manner by a snap-fit ​​assembly, which facilitates quick disassembly and quick assembly. Here, the connection is not limited to snap-fit ​​assembly; it can also be connected by bolts, riveting, etc., to achieve a detachable connection, which will not be elaborated here.

[0038] In order to realize the plug-in connection of the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21, the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21 are designed as a recess structure and a protrusion structure respectively, or both the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21 have the recess structure and the protrusion structure.

[0039] Specifically, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the pole 10 has a first end face 14 facing the connecting piece 20, the connecting piece 20 has a second end face 25 facing the pole 10, the first tooth structure 11 is recessed on the first end face 14 of the pole 10, the second tooth structure 21 is protruded on the second end face 25 of the connecting piece 20, and the first tooth structure 11 is plugged into the second tooth structure 21 to realize the electrical connection between the pole 10 and the connecting piece 20.

[0040] It should be noted that the first tooth structure 11 formed by recessing and the second tooth structure 21 formed by protruding can be arranged in any direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the connecting piece 20. Specifically, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 9 , the second tooth structure 21 is arranged along the length direction of the connecting piece 20, and the length of the second tooth structure 21 is equal to the length of the connecting piece 20. Correspondingly, the first tooth structure 11 is arranged along the length direction of the connecting piece 20, and both ends of the first tooth structure 11 along the length direction of the connecting piece 20 penetrate the pole 10.

[0041] In some embodiments, in order to facilitate the plug-in connection of the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21, as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 8 , the first tooth structure 11 includes at least one tooth groove, each tooth groove includes a first vertical surface 111 perpendicular to the first end face 14 of the pole 10 and a first inclined surface 112 inclined to the first vertical surface 111, and the second tooth structure 21 includes at least one protruding tooth, each protruding tooth includes a second vertical surface 211 perpendicular to the second end face 25 of the connecting piece 20 and a second inclined surface 212 inclined to the second vertical surface 211; the protruding tooth is inserted into the tooth groove, and the first vertical surface 111 and the second vertical surface 211 are in contact and fit, and the second inclined surface 212 and the first inclined surface 112 are in contact and fit.

[0042] When the protruding tooth and the tooth groove are matched, the second vertical surface 211 of the protruding tooth can be pushed to the first vertical surface 111 of the tooth groove through the matching between the first inclined surface 112 and the second inclined surface 212, so that the first vertical surface 111 and the second vertical surface 211 are tightly attached, and the reliability of the electrical connection is improved.

[0043] It should be noted that in order to make the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21 more stable, the first tooth structure 11 is designed to include a plurality of tooth grooves, and the second tooth structure 21 is designed to include a plurality of protruding teeth, and the tooth grooves and the protruding teeth are in one-to-one correspondence, for example, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the tooth grooves are provided with ten, and the protruding teeth are also provided with ten. Of course, the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21 can also be designed to include a plurality of tooth grooves and a plurality of protruding teeth, and the tooth grooves in the first tooth structure 11 and the protruding teeth in the second tooth structure 21 are in one-to-one correspondence, and the protruding teeth in the first tooth structure 11 and the tooth grooves in the second tooth structure 21 are in one-to-one correspondence.

[0044] Further, in order to position the connecting piece 20 and the pole 10, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the first tooth structure 11 is provided with two groups, and each group of the first tooth structure 11 has at least one tooth groove, and the tooth shapes of the tooth grooves in the two groups of the first tooth structure 11 are oppositely arranged, that is, the first inclined surface 112 of the first tooth structure A and the first inclined surface 112 of the first tooth structure B are oppositely inclined; the second tooth structure 21 is also provided with two groups, and each group of the second tooth structure 21 has at least one protruding tooth, and the tooth shapes of the protruding teeth in the two groups of the second tooth structure 21 are oppositely arranged, that is, the second inclined surface 212 of the second tooth structure A and the second inclined surface 212 of the second tooth structure B are oppositely inclined; the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21 are in one-to-one correspondence.

[0045] Since the connection of the connecting piece 20 and the pole 10 can only be achieved when the first inclined surface 112 of the first tooth structure A and the second inclined surface 212 of the second tooth structure A are mated, and the first inclined surface 112 of the first tooth structure B and the second inclined surface 212 of the second tooth structure B are mated, on the one hand, the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21 have a centering effect when they are mated, and the connection is more secure, further improving the reliability of the electrical connection, on the other hand, the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21 are mated to achieve the rapid positioning of the connecting piece 20 and the pole 10.

[0046] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 - Figure 5 , the buckle assembly includes a first clamping piece 31 and a second clamping piece 23, and the battery monomer 100 includes an insulating piece 30 sleeved outside the pole 10, the first clamping piece 31 is arranged on the insulating piece 30, and the second clamping piece 23 is arranged on the connecting piece 20.

[0047] It can be understood that when the positive pole 10 and the negative pole 10 are both insulated from the shell, in order to insulate the outer surface of the pole 10 and the shell, as shown in Figure 4As shown, the battery cell 100 further comprises an insulating piece 30, which is sleeved on the part of the pole 10 protruding from the shell, and the insulating piece 30 is clamped between the part of the pole 10 protruding from the insulating piece 30 and the outer surface of the shell.

[0048] At the same time of the insertion fit of the second tooth structure 21 on the connecting piece 20 and the first tooth structure 11 on the pole 10, the second clamping piece 23 on the connecting piece 20 and the first clamping piece 31 on the battery cell 100 are clamped, and the first tooth structure 11 has a pressure in the direction of the pole 10 through the clamping fit of the first clamping piece 31 and the second clamping piece 23, which ensures the close fit of the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21.

[0049] It should be noted that, in order to facilitate processing and simplify the production process, the first clamping piece 31 and the insulating piece 30 are integrally formed, and the second clamping piece 23 and the connecting piece 20 are integrally formed.

[0050] It should be further noted that, in order to make the connection of the connecting piece 20 and the pole 10 more stable, and to make the arrangement of the second clamping piece 23 and the second tooth structure 21 more reasonable, referring to Figure 4 As shown, both ends of the connecting piece 20 along the length direction thereof are provided with two second clamping pieces 23, and the two second clamping pieces 23 provided on the same end of the connecting piece 20 are located on the two sides of the second tooth structure 21, respectively. Correspondingly, each pole 10 in the battery cell is provided with one first clamping piece 31 on each side thereof.

[0051] There are various specific structures of the first clamping piece 31 and the second clamping piece 23, and in the embodiment, referring to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 9 , the first clamping piece 31 comprises an insertion part 311 and a connecting arm 312 connected with the insertion part 311, the connecting arm 312 is connected on the insulating piece 30, and a plurality of clamping holes 32 are provided on the connecting arm 312; the second clamping piece 23 comprises a mounting hole 231 and a clamping protrusion 232, the mounting hole 231 is provided on the connecting piece 20, the connecting piece 20 has a hole peripheral wall constituting the mounting hole 231, the mounting hole 231 has oppositely arranged first and second hole walls, and the first hole wall of the connecting piece 20 is provided with the clamping protrusion 232 for clamping fit with the clamping hole 32; a gap for the insertion part 311 to pass through is formed between the second hole wall of the connecting piece 20 and the clamping protrusion 232.

[0052] It can be understood that the thickness of the connecting arm 312 is smaller than that of the insertion part 311, and the connecting arm 312 can deform under stress, and can be elastically reset after the stress is removed.

[0053] In order to ensure that the connecting piece 20 is pressed onto the pole 10 through the fit of the clamping protrusion 232 and the clamping hole 32, as shown inFigure 10 As shown in the figure, when the insertion part 311 of the first clamping piece 31 is inserted into the gap between the second hole wall of the connecting piece 20 and the clamping convex 232, the clamping convex 232 deforms the insertion part 311 and the connecting arm 312 in a direction away from the first hole wall; after the connecting piece 20 contacts the pole column 10, the clamping convex 232 continues to deform in the direction of the pole column; when the insertion part 311 of the first clamping piece 31 passes through the gap between the second hole wall of the connecting piece 20 and the clamping convex 232, the connecting arm 312 elastically recovers, that is, the connecting arm 312 resets in a direction close to the first hole wall, and the clamping convex 232 and the clamping hole 32 on the connecting arm 312 are inserted; at this time, the clamping convex 232 has an elastic reset tendency, which makes the connecting piece 20 tightly adhere to the pole column 10, the clamping of the first clamping piece 31 and the second clamping piece 23 is fast and firm, and the stability of the electrical connection is ensured.

[0054] It should be noted that, in order to enable the insertion part 311 to pass through the mounting hole 231, and in order to enable the connecting arm 312 to be inserted into the mounting hole 231, in the embodiment, the length of the mounting hole 231 is slightly greater than the length of the insertion part 311 and greater than the length of the connecting arm 312 in the length direction of the connecting piece 20; and the first tooth structure 11 and the second tooth structure 21 both extend in the length direction of the connecting piece 20; thus, when the two battery monomers 100 arranged adjacent to each other both expand in the thickness direction thereof, that is, in the length direction of the connecting piece 20, the connecting piece 20 and the pole column 10 of the battery monomer 100 will not be affected even if a relative displacement occurs.

[0055] It should be further noted that, in the embodiment, the mounting hole 231 is rectangular in the top view, and the two long sides of the rectangle are the first hole wall and the second hole wall arranged opposite to each other, the clamping convex 232 is arranged on the first hole wall and cooperates with the clamping hole 32; a gap is formed between the second hole wall of the connecting piece 20 and the clamping convex 232, which is used for the insertion part 311 to pass through, so as to facilitate the clamping convex 232 to move to the position of the clamping hole 32 for cooperation. At the same time, the top of the insertion part 311 is designed to be arc-shaped, which has a guiding effect to facilitate the clamping convex 232 to push the insertion part 311 away from the first hole wall.

[0056] In addition, in the embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figure 4 two first clamping pieces 31 are arranged on the two sides of the pole column 10 in the width direction of the connecting piece 20, respectively; in the width direction of the connecting piece 20, the distance between the surfaces of the two insertion parts 311 facing each other is equal to the distance between the surfaces of the two connecting arms 312 facing each other, and the thickness of the insertion part 311 is greater than the thickness of the connecting arm 312; correspondingly, as shown in the figure, Figure 9As shown, two second snap-fit ​​pieces 23 are respectively disposed on both sides of the second tooth structure 21 along the width direction of the connecting piece 20, wherein the snap-fit ​​protrusions 232 located on both sides of the second tooth structure 21 extend in opposite directions.

[0057] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 - Figure 8 as well as Figure 11 As shown, a receiving cavity 12 is formed between the terminal post 10 and the connecting piece 20 of the battery cell 100. The receiving cavity 12 is configured to accommodate and abut against the voltage acquisition part 40 of the flexible circuit board.

[0058] Understandably, the voltage acquisition unit 40 of the flexible circuit board is used to obtain the voltage signal of the battery cell 100 and output it to an external device so that the external device can determine the condition of the battery cell 100 based on the voltage signal.

[0059] In this embodiment, the voltage acquisition part 40 of the flexible circuit board is placed between the electrode post 10 and the connecting piece 20 to form a receiving cavity 12, and the voltage acquisition part 40 of the flexible circuit board, the electrode post 10 and the connecting piece 20 are in contact to achieve electrical connection. This replaces the existing method of achieving electrical connection of the voltage acquisition part 40 of the flexible circuit board by welding the nickel sheet and the connecting piece 20. This not only facilitates the electrical connection between the voltage acquisition part 40 of the flexible circuit board and the connecting piece 20, but also facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the connecting piece 20 and the battery cell 100.

[0060] It should be noted that, in order for the flexible circuit board to obtain the status of a whole row of battery cells 100, the flexible circuit board is designed to have multiple voltage acquisition units 40. Each voltage acquisition unit 40 needs to expose conductive material. The number of voltage acquisition units 40 is the same as the number of connecting pieces 20. That is, two adjacent battery cells 100 are electrically connected through a connecting piece 20, and the status of the above-mentioned electrical connection is obtained through a voltage acquisition unit 40.

[0061] It should also be noted that, in order to make the connection between the voltage acquisition unit 40 and the connecting piece 20 more flexible, the receiving cavity 12 is designed to extend along the length direction of the connecting piece 20, and both ends of the receiving cavity 12 along the length direction of the connecting piece 20 penetrate the connecting piece 20.

[0062] Furthermore, in order to make the voltage acquisition unit 40 and the connecting piece 20 more closely contact, a pressing protrusion 22 is provided in the receiving cavity 12, which is configured to abut against the voltage acquisition unit 40 of the flexible circuit board.

[0063] Understandably, a compression protrusion 22 is formed on the cavity wall of the connecting piece 20 that contacts the voltage acquisition unit 40.

[0064] Through the setting of the extrusion protrusion 22, the extrusion protrusion 22 can act on the voltage collection part 40 while the cavity wall on the connecting piece 20 is contacted by the voltage collection part 40, so that the voltage collection part 40 is deformed to the direction close to the pole 10, and then the purpose of the extrusion protrusion 22 and the exposed conductive material in the voltage collection part 40 are tightly contacted is achieved.

[0065] Based on the structure of the accommodating cavity 12, a bearing surface is further arranged in the accommodating cavity 12, and the position of the bearing surface is arranged opposite to the extrusion protrusion 22, that is, the extrusion protrusion 22 is arranged on the connecting piece 20, and the corresponding bearing surface is arranged on the pole 10; at the same time, the recess 13 is arranged on the bearing surface, and the position of the recess 13 is arranged opposite to the extrusion protrusion 22, the flexible circuit board is extruded by the extrusion protrusion 22, and the flexible circuit board is deformed to the recess 13, and the recess 13 is arranged to accommodate the deformation amount of the flexible circuit board.

[0066] It should be noted that, in the embodiment, referring to FIGS.
