[0081] The technical solutions described in this application are not limited to the devices described above, but can also be applied to all devices that use battery devices. However, for the sake of brevity, the following embodiments are all illustrated using electric vehicles as examples.

[0082] For example, such as Figure 1 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of a vehicle according to one embodiment of this application. The vehicle 1000 can be a gasoline-powered vehicle, a natural gas-powered vehicle, or a new energy vehicle. New energy vehicles can be pure electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, or range-extended electric vehicles, etc. The vehicle 1000 may contain a motor 300, a controller 200, and a battery device 100.

The battery device 100 can be used to power the vehicle 1000. For example, the battery device 100 can serve as the operating power source for the vehicle 1000's electrical system, such as meeting the power requirements for starting, navigation, and operation of the vehicle 1000. In another embodiment of this application, the battery device 100 can not only serve as the operating power source for the vehicle 1000 but also as the driving power source, replacing or partially replacing gasoline or natural gas to provide driving power to the vehicle 1000.

[0083] The battery device 100 mentioned in the embodiments of this application may include one or more battery cell assemblies 10 for providing voltage and capacity. The battery cell assembly 10 may include multiple battery cells 11, which are connected in series, parallel, or mixed connection via a busbar.

[0084] In some embodiments, the battery cell assembly 10 is typically formed by arranging a plurality of battery cells 11.

[0086] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the battery device 100 can be a battery pack, which includes a housing 20 and one or more battery cell assemblies 10, with the battery cell assemblies 10 housed in the housing 20.

[0087] As an example, the battery cell assembly 10 can be a battery module, and the battery cell assembly 10 can be housed in the housing 20 by fixing the battery module in the housing 20.

[0088] As an example, the battery cell assembly 10 can also be housed in the housing 20 by directly fixing multiple battery cells 11 to the housing 20.

[0089] As an example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the housing 20 may include a first part 21 and a second part 22. The first part 21 and the second part 22 are fastened together to form a closed space inside the housing 20 to house the battery cell assembly 10.

[0124] In some embodiments, a pressure relief mechanism is provided on the casing. The pressure relief mechanism is used to release the internal gas of the battery cell 11.

[0125] As an example, the internal pressure or temperature of the battery cell 11 is actuated to release the internal pressure or temperature when it reaches a predetermined threshold. When the internal pressure or temperature of the battery cell 11 reaches the predetermined threshold, the pressure relief mechanism is activated or a weak structure in the pressure relief mechanism is destroyed, thereby forming an opening or channel for the internal pressure or temperature to be released. The threshold design varies depending on the design requirements. The threshold may depend on the materials of one or more of the positive electrode, negative electrode, electrolyte, and separator in the battery cell 11.

[0126] As an example, the pressure relief mechanism can be integrally molded with the housing.

[0127] As an example, the pressure relief mechanism can also be separately installed and connected to the housing.

[0128] The term "actuation" as used in this application refers to the pressure relief mechanism being activated or undergoing a certain state, thereby releasing the internal pressure and temperature of the battery cell 11. The actions of the pressure relief mechanism may include, but are not limited to: movement of components within the pressure relief mechanism to form an exhaust channel, rupture, breakage, tearing, or opening of at least a portion of the pressure relief mechanism, etc. When the pressure relief mechanism is actuated, the high-temperature, high-pressure substances inside the battery cell 11 are discharged outwards from the actuated portion as waste. This method enables the battery cell 11 to release pressure and temperature under controllable pressure or temperature conditions, thereby reducing the potential for more serious accidents.

[0129] In some embodiments, when the housing is a non-sealed structure, the pressure relief mechanism can be configured as a through hole for discharging gas inside the battery cell 11.

[0130] The emissions from the battery cell 11 mentioned in this application include, but are not limited to: electrolyte, dissolved or split positive and negative electrode plates, fragments of separators, high-temperature and high-pressure gases generated by the reaction, flames, etc.

[0131] The positive and negative electrodes can be drawn from the same end of the electrode plate, or they can be drawn from opposite ends of the electrode plate.

[0132] The structures of the positive and negative electrode tabs can be the same or different. Taking the positive electrode tab as an example, the positive electrode tab can include multiple positive electrode tab layers, which are stacked together to form the positive electrode tab. The positive electrode tab can include at least two parts: one part is located between the main body of the electrode sheet and the insulating component, and the other part is located between the insulating component and the electrode lead-out component.

[0133] The insulating component can insulate at least part of the tab from the end face of the main body, thereby reducing the risk of the tab being inserted into the main body when the battery cell 11 is affected by external impacts, vibrations, etc., thereby reducing the risk of short circuit in the battery cell 11 and improving the reliability of the battery cell 11.

[0134] The insulating component can be a one-piece structure or a modular structure. As one example, the insulating component is composed of multiple independently formed parts connected together. As another example, the insulating component is formed as a single piece by stamping.

[0135] For example, the insulating part is made of plastic. The insulating part is integrally molded by injection molding. Plastic parts are easy to process and have low manufacturing costs.

[0136] In some embodiments of this application, the housing includes a shell and an end cap, the shell having an opening, the end cap being connected to the shell and closing the opening, the end cap forming a first sidewall, and a pressure relief mechanism being disposed on the end cap.

[0137] In some embodiments of this application, the outer casing can be a steel casing, an aluminum casing, a plastic casing (such as a polypropylene casing), a composite metal casing (such as a copper-aluminum composite casing), or an aluminum-plastic film, etc. In some embodiments, the outer casing can be a sealed structure or a non-sealed structure. As an example, when the outer casing is a non-sealed structure, the outer casing serves to protect the electrode assembly, and a sealing bag is included between the outer casing and the electrode assembly. The sealing bag is used to encapsulate the electrode assembly and electrolyte. Specifically, the sealing bag can be a bag-shaped insulating component or an aluminum-plastic film. When the outer casing is a sealed structure, it is used to encapsulate components such as the electrode assembly and electrolyte. The casing may have one or more openings. End caps may also be provided one or more.

[0138] In addition, the connection methods between the end cap and the housing include, but are not limited to, snap-fit, adhesive, welding or connection via connectors.

[0139] In some embodiments of this application, the battery cell 11 further includes electrode terminals, which are disposed on the end cap and electrically connected to the electrode assembly. The electrode terminals are electrically connected to the tabs of the electrode assembly. The electrode terminals can be directly connected to the tabs or indirectly connected to the tabs through a current collector. The electrode terminals can be disposed on the end cap or on the housing. In the embodiments shown in this application, the electrode terminals are disposed on the end cap.

[0140] like Figures 3 to 8As shown, in some embodiments of this application, a battery device 100 is proposed. The battery device 100 includes a housing 20, a battery cell assembly 10, a battery management device 30, a wiring harness assembly 50, and a bracket 60. The housing 20 has a receiving space 24. The battery cell assembly 10 and the battery management device 30 are respectively disposed in the receiving space 24. The battery cell assembly 10 is electrically connected to the battery management device 30 through the wiring harness assembly 50. The bracket 60 is fixed on the housing 20. The wiring harness assembly 50 includes a plurality of first terminals 51. The plurality of first terminals 51 are fixed on the bracket 60 and electrically connected to the battery cell assembly 10 or the battery management device 30.

[0141] Specifically, the receiving space 24 is formed inside the housing 20. During the assembly process, the battery cell assembly 10 is placed inside the receiving space 24. The battery cell assembly 10 is fixed inside the receiving space 24. The fixing methods include, but are not limited to, adhesive fixing, snap-fit ​​fixing, or fixing through connectors.

[0142] The shape of the housing 24 is adapted to the shape of the battery cell assembly 10, thereby improving the space utilization within the housing 20 and increasing the energy density of the battery device 100.

[0143] The battery management device 30 can also be called a battery management system (BMS). For example, it can be a low-voltage circuit signal management device. The battery management device 30 is used to manage the battery device 100, such as safety protection (overcharge protection, over-discharge protection, overcurrent / short circuit protection, temperature protection, insulation monitoring), state estimation (state of charge (SOC), state of health (SOH), state of power (SOP), and remaining useful life (RUL)), charge and discharge control, thermal management coordination, and communication and diagnostics, etc.

[0144] The wiring harness assembly 50 electrically connects the battery management device 30 to the battery cell assembly 10, so that the battery management device 30 and the battery cell assembly 10 can obtain the current status information of the battery cell assembly 10, so as to realize the management of the battery cell assembly 10.

[0145] In the wiring harness assembly 50, a plurality of first terminals 51 are used for electrical connection with the battery cell assembly 10 or the battery management device 30. The number of first terminals 51 can be two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, etc.

[0146] Among the multiple first terminals 51, different first terminals 51 may have the same function or different functions.

[0147] Multiple first terminals 51 are mounted on the same bracket 60. The bracket 60 serves as a carrier for the multiple first terminals 51. The bracket 60 is connected to the housing 20, which enables the multiple first terminals 51 to be connected and fixed to the housing 20 at the same time. This reduces the process of fixing the first terminals 51 one by one, improves the convenience of the assembly process, and enhances the assembly efficiency.

[0148] It should be understood that multiple first terminals 51 are connected to the bracket 60 respectively. The multiple first terminals 51 can be located on the same side of the bracket 60 or on different sides of the bracket 60.

[0149] Multiple first terminals 51 are arranged on the bracket 60 in a preset order so that the first terminals 51 can be distinguished, thereby further improving the efficiency of the connection of the first terminals 51.

[0150] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the accommodating space 24 includes a first subspace 241 and a second subspace 242. The housing 20 includes a first part 21, a second part 22, and a third part 23. The first part 21 includes a connecting opening 211. The second part 22 is fastened to the first part 21 to enclose the first subspace 241. The third part 23 is fastened to the side of the first part 21 opposite to the second part 22, and the third part 23 and the first part 21 enclose the second subspace 242. The first subspace 241 is connected to the second subspace 242 through the connecting opening 211. A bracket 60 is installed inside the first subspace 241 and fixedly connected to either the first part 21 or the second part 22. The battery management device 30 is installed inside the second subspace 242.

[0151] Specifically, the second part 22 and the third part 23 are located on opposite sides of the first part 21. The second part 22 is interlocked with the first part 21, and the second part 22 and the first part 21 enclose a first subspace 241, within which the battery cell assembly 10 is disposed. The third part 23 is interlocked with the first part 21, and the third part 23 and the first part 21 enclose a second space, within which the battery management device 30 is disposed. At the connection port 211, the wiring harness assembly 50 electrically connects the battery management device 30 to the battery cell assembly 10.

[0152] The battery management device 30 and the battery cell assembly 10 are located in different spaces. The battery management device 30 is accommodated by the second subspace 242. When the battery management device 30 needs to be inspected or repaired, only the second subspace 242 needs to be opened, without disassembling the entire battery device 100, which improves the convenience of the inspection or repair process.

[0153] It should be noted that the connecting port 211 is opened on the first part 21, and the third part 23 is fastened to the first part 21. The orthographic projection of the third part 23 on the first part 21 is within the area of ​​the first part 21 and can cover the entire connecting port 211. In this way, the connecting port 211 can be closed.

[0154] For example, the first part 21 is a plate-shaped part, the second part 22 is a component with a first groove, and the third part 23 is a component with a second groove. The first part 21 is disposed on the side of the second part 22 with the first groove and closes the opening of the first groove. The side of the third part 23 with the second groove abuts against the first part 21 and closes the opening of the second groove through the first part 21.

[0155] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, along the first direction X, the first part 21 is disposed on top of the second part 22. The battery cell assembly 10 includes at least one battery cell, the battery cell includes a first surface and a pressure relief mechanism disposed on the first surface, the pressure relief mechanism is disposed towards the first part 21 along the first direction X, the bracket 60 is connected to the second part 22, and the arrangement direction of the first part 21 and the second part 22 is consistent with the first direction X.

[0156] Specifically, when assembling the battery device 100, the battery cell assembly 10 is first placed in the second part 22 (the second part 22 has a first groove structure, and the battery cell assembly 10 is placed in the first groove assembly), then the wiring harness assembly 50 is connected to the battery cell assembly 10, then the bracket 60 is fixed in the second part 22, then the first part 21 is fixed to the second part 22 (the first part 21 closes the opening of the first groove) and the communication port 211 of the first part 21 is positioned opposite to the first terminal 51 of the wiring harness assembly 50, then the battery management device 30 is connected to the first terminal 51 at the communication port 211, and finally the third part 23 is connected to the first part 21 so that the battery management device 30 is placed in the second subspace 242.

[0157] During assembly, the bracket 60 is connected and fixed to the second part 22, and multiple first terminals 51 of the wire harness assembly 50 are simultaneously connected to the second part 22 of the housing 20 through the bracket 60. This reduces the process of fixing the first terminals 51 one by one, thereby improving the assembly efficiency.

[0158] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, along the first direction X, the first part 21 is disposed on top of the second part 22. The battery cell assembly 10 includes at least one battery cell, the battery cell includes a first surface and a pressure relief mechanism disposed on the first surface, the pressure relief mechanism is disposed toward the second part 22, and the bracket 60 is connected to the first part 21.

[0159] Specifically, when assembling the battery device 100, the bracket 60 is first fixed to the first part 21, the battery cell assembly 10 is fixed to the first part 21 (the first part 21 is used to enclose the surface of the first subspace 241 with the second part 22), the wiring harness assembly 50 is connected to the battery cell assembly 10, the second part 22 is then fastened to the first part 21 (the first part 21 and the second part 22 enclose the first subspace 241, and the battery cell assembly 10 and the wiring harness assembly 50 are disposed in the first subspace 241), the first part 21 and the second part 22 are then flipped over as a whole, the battery management device 30 is then connected to the first terminal 51 at the position of the communication port 211, and finally the third part 23 is connected to the first part 21 so that the battery management device 30 is placed in the receiving space.

[0160] During assembly, the bracket 60 is connected and fixed to the second part 22, and multiple first terminals 51 of the wire harness assembly 50 are simultaneously connected to the first part 21 of the housing 20 through the bracket 60. This reduces the process of fixing the first terminals 51 one by one, thereby improving the efficiency of assembly.

[0161] In some embodiments of this application, the housing 20 further includes a first fastener (not shown in the figure), and the first part 21 and the second part 22 are detachably connected by a plurality of first fasteners.

[0162] Specifically, when assembling the first part 21 and the second part 22, the first part 21 and the second part 22 are fastened together, and then the first fastener is used to fasten the first part 21 and the second part 22 together to achieve the connection between the first part 21 and the second part 22.

[0163] The number of first fasteners is multiple, and the multiple first fasteners are arranged around the circumference of the first part 21 (i.e., along the extension direction of the joint position of the first part 21 and the second part 22). The first fasteners can be arranged at intervals or without intervals.

[0164] The first part 21 and the second part 22 are connected and fixed by the first fastener, which facilitates the disassembly of the first part 21 and the second part 22 of the housing 20, thereby improving the convenience of maintenance and replacement.

[0165] It should be noted that the first fastener can be a bolt or a fastening clip, etc.

[0166] For example, the first fastener is a bolt, and through holes are respectively opened on the first part 21 and the second part 22. After the bolt passes through the through hole, the nut is locked in place. In this way, the connection and fixation of the first part 21 and the second part 22 can be achieved.

[0167] In some embodiments of this application, the housing 20 further includes a second fastener (not shown in the figure), and the first part 21 and the third part 23 are detachably connected by a plurality of second fasteners.

[0168] Specifically, when assembling the first part 21 and the third part 23, the first part 21 and the third part 23 are fastened together, and then the first part 21 and the third part 23 are fastened together using a second fastener to achieve the connection between the first part 21 and the third part 23.

[0169] The number of second fasteners is multiple, and the multiple second fasteners are arranged around the circumference of the third part 23 (i.e., along the extension direction of the joint position of the third part 23 and the first part 21). The second fasteners can be arranged at intervals or without intervals.

[0170] The first part 21 and the third part 23 are connected and fixed by the second fastener, which facilitates the disassembly of the first part 21 and the third part 23 of the housing 20, thereby improving the convenience of maintenance and replacement.

[0171] It should be noted that the second fastener can be a bolt or a fastener clip, etc.

[0172] For example, the second fastener is a bolt, and through holes are respectively opened on the first part 21 and the third part 23. After the bolt passes through the through hole, the nut is locked in place. In this way, the connection and fixation of the first part 21 and the third part 23 can be achieved.

[0173] In some embodiments of this application, the housing 20 further includes a first seal (not shown in the figure), which is sealed at the junction of the first part 21 and the second part 22.

[0174] Specifically, placing the first seal at the junction of the first part 21 and the second part 22 can improve the sealing performance of the junction of the first part 21 and the second part 22 and reduce the adverse effects of the external environment on the components in the first subspace 241.

[0175] It should be noted that the first sealing element can be a sealing ring or sealant, etc.

[0176] For example, the first sealing element is a first sealing ring (e.g., a rubber ring or a silicone ring). The first sealing ring is an elastic structure. The first sealing ring is sandwiched between the first part 21 and the second part 22. The sealing between the first part 21 and the second part 22 is achieved through the elastic deformation of the first sealing ring.

[0177] In some embodiments of this application, the housing 20 further includes a second seal (not shown in the figure), which is sealed at the junction of the first part 21 and the third part 23.

[0178] Specifically, placing the second seal at the joint between the first part 21 and the third part 23 can improve the sealing performance at the joint between the first part 21 and the third part 23 and reduce the adverse effects of the external environment on the components within the containment space.

The flexible electrical connector 40 is used to electrically connect the first terminal 51 to the battery management device 30, allowing the battery management device 30 to be effectively connected to the wiring harness while enabling flexible layout and installation.

[0185] In some embodiments of this application, the flexible electrical connector 40 is a flexible printed circuit (FPC). A flexible printed circuit is a circuit board made of a flexible substrate (such as polyimide or polyester film), which is flexible, lightweight, and space-saving, and can adapt to scenarios requiring dynamic connections or complex spatial layouts. This configuration can adapt to the layout of the battery management device 30, facilitating the connection between the battery management device 30 and the first terminal 51, thus improving the ease of connection.

[0186] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the flexible electrical connector 40 includes a main body 42, a first connecting terminal 41 and a second connecting terminal 43. The first connecting terminal 41 is located at one end of the main body 42 and is plugged into the battery management device 30.

[0190] Specifically, the first terminal 51 is configured as a female connector and connected to the bracket 60, thereby increasing the contact area between the first terminal 51 and the bracket 60 and increasing the strength of the connection between the wire harness assembly 50 and the bracket 60.

[0191] In some embodiments of this application, the second terminal 53 is a female connector.

[0192] Specifically, the second terminal 53 is configured as a female connector, and the connection end between the battery cell assembly 10 and the second terminal 53 is configured as a male connector.

[0194] Specifically, the first terminal 51 of the wiring harness assembly 50 is plugged into the second connection terminal 43 of the flexible electrical connector 40. The first terminal 51 is connected to the bracket 60 and is a female connector, while the second connection terminal 43 is set as a male connector. This arrangement enables the flexible electrical connector 40 to be plugged into the battery management device 30, improving the ease of assembly.

[0195] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, multiple first terminals 51 are connected to the bracket 60 by adhesive bonding.

[0196] Specifically, the connection between the first terminal 51 and the bracket 60 is set to adhesive bonding. This setting is simple in structure, easy to implement, and improves the efficiency of fixing the first terminal 51 and the bracket 60.

[0197] In some embodiments of this application, the support 60 is an epoxy resin board.

[0198] Specifically, the bracket 60 is an epoxy resin board, and the first terminal 51 is a female connector. When fixing the first terminal 51, the first terminal 51 is attached to the surface of the epoxy resin board and fixed to the epoxy resin board by adhesive. Setting the bracket 60 as an epoxy resin board increases the contact area between the first terminal 51 and the bracket 60, thereby improving the fixing strength of the first terminal 51.

[0199] In some embodiments of this application, the epoxy resin board is an integral structure, and a plurality of first terminals 51 are disposed on the same side of the epoxy resin board or dispersedly disposed on opposite sides of the epoxy resin board.

[0200] This configuration allows for the simultaneous fixing of multiple first terminals 51 by fixing the epoxy resin board, effectively improving assembly efficiency.

[0201] In some embodiments of this application, the epoxy resin board includes multiple board bodies, and multiple first terminals 51 are distributed on the multiple board bodies. This arrangement facilitates adaptation to the installation location and improves the ease of installation.

[0202] It should be noted that the number of boards can be two, three, four, five, six, etc.

[0203] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 8 As shown, the bracket 60 is provided with a connection hole 61, and the battery device 100 also includes a fastening component 70. The connecting end of the fastening component 70 passes through the connection hole 61 and is connected to the housing 20 to fix the bracket 60 on the housing 20.

[0204] Specifically, the fastening component 70 is used to connect the bracket 60 to the housing 20, which improves the connection strength between the bracket 60 and the housing 20 and enhances the stability of the wire harness assembly 50.

[0205] It should be noted that the fastening component 70 can be a screw, which has high connection strength and good stability.

[0206] In addition, the bracket 60 can be a plate-shaped component, which can increase the contact area between the bracket and the housing 20, thereby improving the fixing strength and stability of the bracket 60.

[0207] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a second aspect of this application provides an electrical device comprising a battery device 100 as described above.

[0208] During assembly, the battery device 100 is connected to the housing 20 via the bracket 60, thereby connecting and fixing the wiring harness assembly 50 to the housing 20. Multiple first terminals 51 in the wiring harness assembly 50 are respectively fixed on the bracket 60, reducing the need to fix the first terminals 51 one by one, improving the convenience of the assembly process, and increasing the efficiency of the assembly.

[0209] The above description is only an overview of the technical solution of this application. In order to better understand the technical means of this application and to implement it in accordance with the contents of the specification, and to make the above and other objects, features and advantages of this application more obvious and understandable, the following are specific embodiments of this application.

[0211] During assembly, the bracket 60 is connected to the housing 20, thereby connecting and fixing the wire harness assembly 50 to the housing 20. Multiple first terminals 51 in the wire harness assembly 50 are respectively fixed on the bracket 60, reducing the process of fixing the first terminals 51 one by one, improving the convenience of the assembly process, and thus improving the assembly efficiency.

[0212] Furthermore, the accommodating space 24 includes a first subspace 241 and a second subspace 242. The housing 20 includes a first part 21, a second part 22, and a third part 23.
