Moreover, the high-voltage connecting row 3 can provide the required pre-tightening force for the installation of the cell module 2, inhibit the excessive expansion of the cell during use, and realize the reliable fixation of the cell module 2.

[0032] In combination with Figure 2 The installation process of the battery pack in the application embodiment includes: first, a specified number of cells are arranged in order, and the CCS electrical connection component is welded to the surface of the cell by laser welding to form a cell module 2.

The insulation structure 4 is pasted on the cell module 2. Then, the high-voltage connecting row 3 is electrically connected with the battery frame 1, and the high-voltage connecting row 3 is mechanically connected with the fixed support 5 by using a bolt 7 (such as an M8 hexagonal head bolt).

[0033] The insulation structure 4 in the application embodiment can be an insulation film, which insulates the cell module 2 and the high-voltage connecting row 3 to prevent the battery pack from leaking electricity. The insulation film is heated by a hot plate machine to soften, and at the same time, the hot plate machine applies appropriate pressure to make the insulation film fully contact and adhere to the surface of the cell module 2.
