UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0003] In view of the problems in the above background technology, the utility model aims at providing a PACK module star chain type connecting structure.

[0004] In order to realize the above technical purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0005] A PACK module star chain type connecting structure, comprising a plurality of battery modules horizontally arrayed and installed on a base plate, in the horizontal direction, a first link lock is installed between two adjacent battery modules on the upper and lower sides of the edge side, and the first link lock is vertically placed.

[0006] In the horizontal direction, a second link lock is installed between two adjacent battery modules on the left and right sides of the edge side, and the second link lock is horizontally placed.

[0007] In the horizontal direction, a third link lock is installed between four adjacent battery modules in the four directions which are not on the edge side.

[0008] The first link lock and the second link lock are the same in structure, the first link lock comprises a first rectangular plate, and the first rectangular plate is provided with a first fixing hole at both ends.

[0009] The third link lock comprises a second rectangular plate, and the second rectangular plate is provided with a second fixing hole at the four corner positions.

[0010] Further limited, the first rectangular plate and the second rectangular plate are both subjected to round corner deburring treatment, and such design is not easy to scratch the user during installation and connection.

[0011] Further limited, the thickness size of the first rectangular plate and the second rectangular plate is not less than two millimeters, and such design guarantees the connection support strength.

[0012] The utility model has the beneficial effects:

[0013] The utility model discloses a structure design, through the first link lock catch, second link lock catch and third link lock catch link all battery module into a stable whole, similar to a reinforced bottom plate, can effectively prevent the impact force from bottom, side during hoisting and transportation,

[0014] The utility model discloses a structure design, under the condition of not increasing many structures and weight, the strength and rigidity of battery module whole have been improved obviously. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0015] The utility model can be further explained by the non - limiting embodiment shown in the drawings;

[0016] Figure 1 It is the structure schematic drawing of PACK module star chain type connecting structure embodiment of the utility model;

[0017] Figure 2 It is Figure 1 The enlarged structure schematic diagram of A in middle;

[0018] Figure 3 It is Figure 1 The enlarged structure schematic diagram of B in middle;

[0019] The following mainly element symbol explanation:
