In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0057] Reference to“an embodiment” herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearances of the phrase“in an embodiment” in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are they necessarily all referring to a common embodiment, or an embodiment that is independent of other embodiments. One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that an implementation including“an embodiment” described herein can include one or more elements, and combinations of elements, from the various embodiments described herein.

[0058] In the description of the embodiments of the application, the term“and / or” only means an association relationship of the associated objects, which can represent three relationships, for example, A and / or B, which can represent three cases of A existing alone, A and B existing together, and B existing alone. In addition, the character“ / ” herein generally represents that the front and rear associated objects have an“or” relationship.

[0059] In the description of the embodiments of the application, the term“a plurality of” refers to two or more (including two), and similarly, “a plurality of groups” refers to two or more groups (including two groups), and “a plurality of pieces” refers to two or more pieces (including two pieces).

[0060] In the description of the embodiments of the application, the technical terms“center”,“longitudinal”,“transverse”,“length”,“width”,“thickness”,“upper”,“lower”,“front”,“rear”,“left”,“right”,“vertical”,“horizontal”,“top”,“bottom”,“inner”,“outer”,“clockwise”,“counterclockwise”,“axial”,“radial”,“circumferential” and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the embodiments of the application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the embodiments of the application.

For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of the application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0062] With the vigorous development of new energy industry, the capacity of battery device is getting larger and larger, and the performance requirement of battery device is getting higher and higher. The battery device usually includes one or more battery monomers. The battery management assembly can be arranged in the battery device. The battery management assembly can monitor the state of the battery monomer during use of the battery device, and adaptively manage the battery monomer.

[0063] The battery device can also be provided with a data transmitter. The data transmitter can transmit the working condition data of the battery device collected by the battery management component to a cloud server, and can also transmit the instructions issued by the cloud server to the battery management component.

[0064] During use of the battery device, regular maintenance or repair is usually required. When designing the battery device, it is generally considered that the data transmitter and other components of the battery device can have the same maintenance or repair period. However, based on research findings, as the overall life of the battery device improves, the possibility of damage to the data transmitter will increase in the later stage of use of the battery device. Thus, the data transmitter needs to be frequently repaired or even replaced in the later stage of use of the battery device. Moreover, research has also found that as technology advances, the communication technology of the data transmitter is updated and iterated faster. Before the service life of the battery device is reached, the battery device can need to replace a new generation of data transmitter. Thus, the data transmitter can need to be regularly repaired or replaced individually. However, when the data transmitter of the battery device is repaired or replaced individually, the convenience is poor, resulting in an increase in the repair and maintenance cost of the battery device.

[0065] Based on the above research, the application provides a battery device. The data transmitter of the battery device is arranged on the outer wall surface of the box body of the battery device, so that the data transmitter is externally arranged. The data transmitter can be independently repaired or replaced without affecting the various components inside the box body. When the data transmitter needs to be repaired or replaced, the detection and replacement of the corresponding components can be directly performed outside the box body, thereby saving the opening time of the box and the maintenance and repair cost, reducing the influence of opening of the box on the performance of the battery device, and improving the convenience of repair or maintenance of the battery device.

[0066] The battery device disclosed in the embodiments of the application can be used in an electrical equipment. The electrical equipment can use the battery device disclosed in the application to form a power supply system.

[0067] The embodiments of the application provide an electrical equipment using the battery device as a power supply. The electrical equipment can be, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, an electric toy, an electric tool, an electric vehicle, an electric car, a ship, a spacecraft, and the like. The electric toy can include a fixed or mobile electric toy, such as a game console, an electric car toy, an electric ship toy, and an electric airplane toy. The spacecraft can include an airplane, a rocket, a space shuttle, and a spacecraft.

[0068] It should be understood that the battery device described in the embodiments of the application is not only limited to the above-described electrical equipment, but can also be applied to all equipment using the battery device. However, for the sake of brevity of description, the following embodiments are described by taking an electric vehicle as an example.

During charging and discharging of the battery cell 101, active ions (e.g., lithium ions) are intercalated and deintercalated between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The separator disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode prevents the positive electrode and the negative electrode from shorting while allowing the active ions to pass through.

[0085] The electrode assembly 120 includes a tab 121 that can conduct current from the electrode assembly 120. The tab 121 includes a positive tab and a negative tab.

[0086] The electrode terminal 113 is electrically connected to the tab 121. The electrode terminal 113 can be directly connected to the tab 121 or indirectly connected to the tab 121 through a current collector. The electrode terminal 113 can be disposed on the end cap 112 or on the housing 111.

[0102] The communication connection or electrical connection involved in the embodiments refers to the transmission and interaction of signals to constitute communication between connected devices, which can be wired communication connection or wireless communication connection. For example,Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 1, the box 13 can be divided into an energy storage compartment 131 and a functional compartment 132. The energy storage compartment 131 is used to accommodate the battery monomer 101, and the functional compartment 132 is used to accommodate the battery management assembly 200 and other components.

[0103] The battery monomer 101 can be one or more, and all the battery monomers 101 can be arranged in the box 13.

[0104] The data transmitter 300 is arranged on the outer wall surface of the box 13, that is, the data transmitter 300 is arranged on the outside of the box 13, and the outer wall surface of the box 13 refers to the exposed wall of the box 13, that is, the side of the wall of the box 13 away from the battery monomer 101.

[0105] The data transmitter 300 can be arranged on any one of the outer wall surfaces of the box 13. For example, the data transmitter 300 can be arranged on the top wall of the box 13, or on the bottom wall or any one of the side walls of the box 13.

[0106] The data transmitter 300 and the corresponding outer wall surface can be detachably connected or non-detachably connected. The detachable connection refers to that the two connected parts (in this embodiment, the data transmitter 300 and the corresponding outer wall surface) can be disassembled and reassembled without the aid of destructive means. The detachable connection can be achieved by screwing, clamping, or other means. Optionally, the detachable connection can be achieved by bolts, screws, pins, buckles, etc. The non-detachable connection refers to that once connected, it is difficult or impossible to disassemble without damaging the components. The non-detachable connection can include welding, riveting, and bonding. It should be noted that when the data transmitter 300 and the outer wall surface of the box 13 are connected in a non-detachable manner, the data transmitter 300 can be damaged or the connecting part between the data transmitter 300 and the box 13 can be damaged when the data transmitter 300 is disassembled, so as to reduce the damage to the box 13.

[0107] For example, the data transmitter 300 can be arranged on the surface of the outer wall surface of the box 13 and protrude from the outer wall surface of the box 13.

[0108] For example, the data transmitter 300 can be embedded in the outer wall surface of the box 13. Specifically, the outer wall surface of the box 13 can be provided with a groove, and the data transmitter 300 can be arranged in the groove and located entirely in the groove, or the data transmitter 300 can be arranged in the groove and partially protrude from the groove.

[0109] The data transmitter 300 can realize data transmission of the battery management assembly 200, that is, can receive and send relevant data of the battery management assembly 200 to the cloud server 1, and can also receive and send instructions and the like sent by the cloud server 1 to the battery management assembly 200. By installing the data transmitter 300 on the outside of the box 13, during the maintenance and repair of the data transmitter 300, the detection and replacement of the corresponding components can be directly performed outside the box 13, compared with the mode in which the data transmitter 300 is arranged in the box 13 (in this mode, the top cover of the box 13 needs to be disassembled, and the opening cost is even higher than the body cost of the data transmitter 300), the opening time and the repair and maintenance cost are saved, the influence of opening on the performance of the battery device 10 is reduced, and the convenience of maintenance and repair of the battery device 10 is improved. Among them, opening refers to the process of opening the box 13 of the battery device 10 and resealing the box 13 from the open state. In addition, by installing the data transmitter 300 on the outside of the box 13, the replaceability of the data transmitter 300 is also improved. When the product of the battery device 10 is not suitable for the current network environment, for example, when the network is generally upgraded from 4G (fourth generation mobile communication technology) to 5G (fifth generation mobile communication technology), the data transmitter 300 can be directly replaced without opening the box; moreover, the data transmitter 300 is external, which can reduce the electrical components in the box 13 and improve the available space in the box 13 of the battery device 10.

[0110] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the box 13 is provided with an energy storage compartment 131 and a functional compartment 132.

[0113] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 At least part of the circumferential side wall of the box 13 is provided as the first wall 133.

[0114] That is, the side wall of the box 13 surrounding the functional compartment 132 can be provided as the first wall 133.

[0115] For example, the first wall 133 can be the rear side wall of the box 13, so that the data transmitter 300 can be shielded by the battery device 10 when the battery device 10 is assembled to the electrical equipment, improving the arrangement aesthetics of the battery device 10 and reducing the possibility of damage to the data transmitter 300 by external components.

[0119] For example, the box body 310 may also include a base 316 and a cover 317, with the cover 317 covering the base 316 to form a receiving cavity. The base 316 can be connected to the box body 13, and the cover 317 is located on the side of the base 316 opposite to the box body 13. The base 316 and the cover 317 can be sealed with glue and fixed with screws or other fasteners.

[0120] The data transmission component 320 is a core component for realizing data transmission, and it may include a circuit board and circuits and chips mounted on the circuit board.

[0121] In this embodiment, the data transmission component 320 is disposed inside the housing 310. The housing 310 can provide good protection against water, dust, and accidental contact for the data transmission component 320. The data transmission component 320 is connected to the enclosure 13 through the housing 310, which is convenient to operate and reduces the possibility of damage to the data transmission component 320 due to installation and disassembly.

[0122] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the data transmitter may not have a housing. For example, a groove is provided on the outer wall of the housing, and the data transmission component of the data transmitter is directly installed in the groove. A protective cover can be provided at the opening of the groove to seal the groove.

[0123] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, such as Figures 8 to 12 As shown, the box body 310 has a first side surface 311 facing the outer wall surface of the box body 13. A sealing member 340 is provided between the first side surface 311 and the outer wall surface (the outer wall surface of the box body 13, understood with reference to the first wall 133). The sealing member 340 is used to seal the gap between the first side surface 311 and the outer wall surface.

[0124] The first side 311 is the side on which the data transmitter 300 contacts and connects with the outer wall of the housing 13. The sealing component 340 can be a sealant 342, a gasket, a sealing washer 341, etc. The sealing component 340 can cover the entire surface of the first side 311, or it can be provided only around the circumferential edge of the first side 311.

[0125] By providing a sealing component 340 between the first side 311 and the corresponding outer wall of the housing 13, the gap between the outer wall of the housing 13 and the data transmitter 300 can be reduced by reducing the amount of dust and moisture entering, thereby improving the protection performance of the battery device 10.

[0126] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, such as Figure 9 As shown, the sealing component 340 includes a sealing gasket 341, which is disposed around the edge region of the first side surface 311 along the circumference of the first side surface 311.

[0128] The sealing gasket 341 can have a certain elasticity, which can be made of rubber, and can play a sealing role through extrusion fitting.

[0129] For example, the sealing gasket 341 is located in the first side surface 311 and is arranged in a circle along the circumference of the first side surface 311, and the sealing gasket 341 is fixed by being pressed against the box body 13 by the data transmitter 300.

[0130] By arranging the sealing gasket 341, the gap between the outer wall surface of the box body 13 and the data transmitter 300 can be reduced, and the protection performance of the battery device 10 can be improved.

The first assembly hole 352 can be a through hole, and the bolt assembly 351 can be assembled to the second assembly hole 353 after passing through the first assembly hole 352, so that the bolt assembly 351 can be inserted from the outside of the box body 13, and the operation is more convenient. The second assembly hole 353 can be a through hole or a blind hole. The first assembly hole 352 and the second assembly hole 353 can be provided as threaded holes or smooth holes.

[0143] Optionally, a sealing gasket 344 can be arranged between the first assembly hole 352 and the second assembly hole 353, which can seal the first assembly hole 352 and the second assembly hole 353, and reduce the possibility of dust, water vapor, etc. entering the box body 13 from the second assembly hole 353 and the second assembly hole 353. It should be noted that the sealing gasket 344 between the first assembly hole 352 and the second assembly hole 353 can be the sealing gasket 341 between the first side surface 311 and the box body 13, and the sealing gasket 344 and the sealing gasket 341 can also be independently arranged.
