TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of electronic engineering, more specifically, relate to a kind of for battery pack electrically conductive connection special-shaped lap joint structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] Currently, the electrically conductive connectors in battery modules of consumer electronic products can be classified into two categories: hard connection and soft connection.
[0003] The common structure of hard connection is as follows: a hard copper plate is stamped into a designed structure by a hardware die, and the surface treatment method is nickel plating (electrolytic plating or chemical plating). The common structure of soft connection is as follows: a 0.1 mm thick copper foil (coiled material) is cut into a designed length by a cutting device, and multiple layers are stacked to a designed thickness. A 0.1 mm thick nickel foil is attached to the surface locking position and exposed area, and the layers are combined (copper layer and copper layer, or copper layer and nickel layer) after welding by a high polymer diffusion welding device. The two types of products are selected according to the required functions. For example, if PCB welding is involved, the hard connection structure is selected. If only the locking method is required for electrically conductive connection, the soft connection structure is selected.

However, the existing two types of product structures cannot perfectly achieve this function. The hard connection can achieve one end welding and the other end locking, but it is fixed in structure and lacks flexibility, cannot absorb assembly tolerances and daily use vibration energy, and brings high risk to battery module production and product quality. The soft copper bar can satisfy the locking and assembly tolerance, and can absorb daily vibration energy, but the welding performance is poor, and virtual welding or delamination may occur during production, resulting in a decrease in production yield. From the structure, whether it is hard connection or soft connection, the material utilization rate is low when producing electrically conductive connectors with special shapes (such as L-shaped), resulting in an increase in the cost of electrically conductive connectors.

Under the same structure, the use of electrically connected profile overlapping and stitch-welding products can save more than 70% of materials, and the use of soft and hard splicing can form more complex structures compared with hard connection.
[0033] Example Two: Based on Example One, as shown in detail Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the hard profile structure conductive connecting piece 10 is formed into a semi-finished state by metal stamping mold, the surface is treated with nickel plating, and the curved soft profile structure conductive connecting piece 11 can form multiple groups of soft connection bending 16.
[0034] As shown in detail Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the soft profile structure conductive connecting piece 11 uses 0.1 mm thick copper foil (roll stock) which is cut to the designed length by cutting equipment, and is stacked in multiple layers to the designed thickness.
[0035] As shown in detail Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a 0.1 mm thick nickel foil is attached to the surface layer locking position and the exposed area of the soft profile structure conductive connecting piece 11, and is welded by high polymer diffusion welding equipment.
