The groove of the fixing block is reserved with movable space, which can prevent damage to the support body when the battery module is subjected to vibration. In addition, the movable metal fixing block improves the tolerance rate of the difference in the spacing of the busbar holes, reduces the processing precision while meeting the specifications, and lowers the manufacturing cost. The specific details are as follows:
[0019] 1. The number of plastic tray bodies and cover plates can be selected according to the number of battery bodies. During overall assembly, the plastic tray bodies can be placed inside the battery bodies. End plates are set on both sides of the battery pack.

The busbars can then pass through the battery terminal openings and be fixed using busbar clips. Fasteners can be passed through the busbars to fix them to the metal fixing blocks. The upper end of the side plate body forms a bent area, which is pressed against the protrusion on the plastic tray body. The cover plate body covers the plastic tray body, and the support body is fixed to the end plate body by a wedge plate. The cover plate body is directly snapped into the cover plate buckle of the plastic tray body through a snap-fit, thus fixing the cover plate body. This allows the plastic tray body and the cover plate body to be spliced together to adapt to modules with different numbers of strings. The metal fixing block is an independent movable module of the support body. The fixing block groove has reserved space for movement, which can prevent damage to the support body when the battery module is subjected to vibration. In addition, the movable metal fixing block improves the tolerance rate of the difference in the busbar hole spacing, reduces the processing precision and reduces the manufacturing cost while meeting the specifications.
[0020] 2. The illustrated plastic pallet body and cover body are symmetrical and have an even number of structural designs, which are suitable for even-number modules. If the module has an odd number of modules, the plastic pallet body and cover body can be cut into individual forms for use, which is convenient and flexible and does not require redesigning the mold. In addition, the cover body and the plastic pallet body are fixed by a snap-fit, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly and facilitates future fault repair. Attached Figure Description
