[0002] With the rapid development of new energy vehicles and distributed energy storage systems, battery modules, as the core unit of energy storage, have seen their installation efficiency and maintainability become key factors restricting the speed of system deployment. Furthermore, due to the rise of the food delivery industry, delivery drivers have an increasing demand for longer battery range in their electric vehicles, creating an urgent need for a quickly replaceable battery module that can replenish range at any time without the need for time-consuming and labor-intensive charging.

[0003] However, most current mainstream battery modules adopt a multi-cell parallel packaging structure, achieving mechanical fixation through a metal frame, insulating partitions, and bolt fasteners, while relying on independent terminals for electrical connection. While this design meets basic functional requirements, in large-scale industrial applications, the traditional installation method requires multiple steps such as positioning, bolt tightening, and wire crimping, resulting in excessively long installation time for a single module and impacting efficiency. Furthermore, the fixed packaging structure necessitates complete disassembly when expanding battery pack capacity or replacing faulty modules, significantly increasing maintenance costs and downtime risks. The installation and removal of electric vehicle batteries are also complex, requiring professional personnel for replacement, which cannot meet the needs of delivery drivers for quick battery replacements.

[0025] This invention proposes a battery module that is easy to install quickly.

[0026] like Figure 1As shown in one embodiment of this utility model, a battery module that is easy to install quickly includes a battery body installed on an electrical device 1. The battery body includes a housing 2 and a storage battery 3 installed inside the housing 2. The housing 2 has an elastic locking structure 6 for locking the battery body on one side and a positioning structure 5 on one side. The electrical device 1 has an installation groove 4 with a guide structure 9 corresponding to the positioning structure 5. When the battery body is installed in the installation groove 4, the positioning structure 5 and the guide structure 9 are slidably connected and nested together to position and guide the battery body so as to accurately install it into a preset position. In addition, the housing 2 also has a conductive contact 7 on one side, which is electrically connected to the storage battery 3. The electrical device 1 has a power receiving part 8 in the installation groove 4. When the battery body is installed in the installation groove 4, the conductive contact 7 abuts against the power receiving part 8 to achieve charging and discharging. After the battery body is pushed into the preset position, the elastic locking structure 6 locks the battery body.

[0027] In this embodiment, the battery body is installed in the mounting groove 4 by the cooperation of the positioning structure 5 and the guiding structure 9. At the same time, the conductive contact 7 connects the power receiving part 8 to the electrical device 1. Then, the battery body is fixed by the elastic locking structure 6, thereby realizing the quick installation of the battery body on the electrical device 1, increasing the installation efficiency and enabling quick battery replacement.

[0028] Among them, the elastic locking structure 6 can be an elastic block with a beveled guide portion. When the battery body is pushed into the mounting groove 4, the mounting groove 4 has a corresponding slot that squeezes the elastic block. When it is pushed to the position of the slot, the elastic block springs back to its original state, thereby locking the battery body. The elastic locking structure 6 can also be a combination of a spring and a locking block. The electrical device 1 has a corresponding slot in the mounting groove 4. The positioning structure 5 can be a positioning block, and the guide structure 9 can be a guide groove, or vice versa, to play a positioning and guiding role so that the battery body can be accurately installed and the conductive contact 7 can be connected to the power receiving part 8. This will not be described in detail here. The conductive contact 7 is a groove or protrusion made of conductive metal.

[0029] Furthermore, this embodiment provides a battery module that is easy to install quickly, including a battery body and a mounting slot 4 for the electrical device 1. The battery body consists of a shell 2 and a built-in storage battery 3. The shell 2 has an elastic locking structure 6 on one side and a positioning guide rail on the other side. The mounting slot 4 has a guide groove that matches the positioning guide rail. The two are slidably nested to allow the battery to be installed along a predetermined path. The elastic locking structure 6 can be a spring clip, an elastic silicone protrusion, or a lever-type lock. In addition to the guide rail and guide groove, it can also be replaced with a slider and slide rail, a rib and a groove, etc., to ensure the uniqueness of the installation path. The conductive contact 7 is a metal spring sheet or a columnar protrusion, which is connected to the positive and negative terminals of the storage battery 3. The power receiving part 8 is an elastic copper sheet or a spring pin, which is pressed into the contact after installation to conduct the circuit. When the battery body is pushed into the mounting slot 4 along the guide groove, the positioning guide rail restricts lateral displacement, the elastic locking structure 6 automatically locks when it reaches the installation position, and at the same time, the conductive contact 7 abuts against the power receiving part 8 to conduct electricity.

[0030] Preferably, the elastic locking structure 6 includes at least one pair of oppositely arranged elastic buckle components. The elastic buckle components are arranged on both sides of the housing 2 to form a symmetrical locking effect, preventing the battery body from becoming loose in some areas. The positioning structure 5 is arranged between the elastic buckle components, and the elastic buckles are engaged with the electrical equipment 1 in the mounting groove 4.

[0031] Furthermore, the elastic locking structure 6 adopts symmetrically distributed elastic buckle components. The buckle components are located on both sides of the housing 2, and the positioning guide rail is set in the center. The spacing of the buckles on both sides is precisely matched with the snap-fit ​​position of the mounting groove 4 to avoid the battery tilting due to unilateral force. The length of the positioning guide rail is greater than that of the buckle components, so it enters the guide groove first in the initial stage of installation to achieve pre-positioning.

[0032] Preferably, such as Figure 2 As shown, the elastic buckle assembly includes a snap-fit ​​component and an elastic component. The two ends of the elastic component abut against the inner side of the outer shell 2 and the snap-fit ​​component, respectively. The electrical device 1 has a corresponding slot in the mounting groove 4. When the battery body is pushed towards the mounting groove 4 to the slot position, the elastic component pops out the snap-fit ​​component to achieve snap-fit.

[0033] Preferably, such as Figure 3 As shown, the latching component includes a latching part 61, a rotating part 62, and a releasing part 63. The latching part 61 faces the positioning structure 5, and the releasing part 63 is inserted into the outside of the outer casing 2 and movably connected to the outer casing 2. The elastic element is a torsion spring 64. The rotating part 62 is rotatably connected to the outer casing 2, and the two ends of the torsion spring 64 abut against the rotating part 62 and the inner wall of the outer casing 2, respectively. During installation, the latching part 61 presses against the battery body under the action of the torsion spring 64. The electrical device 1 has a corresponding slot. When the battery body is pushed to the preset position, the latching part 61 is springed into the slot to fix the battery body. When the battery needs to be removed, the releasing part 63 is pressed, which rotates the rotating part and drives the latching part 61 out of the slot, thereby pulling out the battery body.

[0034] The rotating part 62 is hinged to the outer casing 2 via a pivot, and the release part 63 extends to the outside of the outer casing 2, allowing the user to unlock it by pressing. A torsion spring 64 is fitted onto the pivot, with its two ends abutting against the inner wall of the outer casing 2 and the locking member, respectively, providing a restoring force. During installation, the locking part 61 is pressed against the side wall of the mounting groove 4, causing the locking member to rotate around the pivot, and the torsion spring 64 stores force. Upon reaching the locked position, the torsion spring 64 releases its force, causing the locking part 61 to engage with the locking hole of the mounting groove 4.

[0035] Preferably, the snap-fit ​​part 61 is provided with a beveled guide structure 9, which is beveled in the direction of battery body installation. When the beveled guide part is squeezed, a tangential force is generated to squeeze the snap-fit ​​part 61, thereby enabling the snap-fit ​​part 61 to avoid.

[0036] Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​part 61 is provided with a beveled guide surface with an inclination angle of 45° to 60°. During installation, the beveled surface contacts the side wall of the mounting groove 4, generating a vertical force that pushes the snap-fit ​​part inward, reducing installation resistance. After reaching the locking position, the end of the beveled surface forms a stop, preventing the battery from coming out in the reverse direction.

[0037] Preferably, the positioning structure 5 is a positioning guide rail, and the guiding structure 9 is a guide groove, with the positioning guide rail embedded in the guide groove.

[0038] Preferably, one end of the positioning guide rail 91 is provided with a positioning slot 911, and the electrical equipment is provided with a positioning block. When the battery body is installed in the mounting groove 4, the positioning slot 911 is inserted into the positioning block to further position the battery body.

[0039] Furthermore, the positioning structure 5 adopts a T-shaped guide rail, with a matching T-shaped guide groove. The T-shaped structure prevents the guide rail from coming out laterally, and its stability is superior to that of a rectangular guide rail. A limiting boss is provided at the end of the guide rail to limit excessive battery insertion.

[0040] Preferably, the conductive contact 7 is a conductive protrusion, and the energizing part 8 is provided with a conductive groove corresponding to the conductive protrusion. The conductive protrusion is embedded in the conductive groove to realize the electrical connection between the battery body and the electrical device 1.

[0041] Preferably, the conductive protrusion is made of brass plated with nickel and gold.

[0042] Furthermore, the conductive contact 7 is a hemispherical protrusion made of brass plated with nickel (50μm thick) and then gold plated (0.2μm thick). The contact part 8 is a groove formed by stamping an elastic copper sheet, with the inner wall of the groove plated with silver. The gold plating layer reduces contact resistance, and the nickel plating layer prevents oxidation of the underlying copper. The groove depth is 1.2 times the height of the protrusion to ensure a tight press-fit.

[0043] Alternatively, a stainless steel spring can be used instead of the torsion spring 64, with the spring bending deformation providing the locking force, and a magnet embedded in the snap-fit ​​part attracting the magnetic conductor in the mounting groove 4.

[0044] Optionally, the outer casing 2 is provided with sliders on both sides, and the mounting groove 4 is provided with a slide rail, which is suitable for horizontal insertion installation.

[0045] Optionally, a magnet is embedded in the positioning guide rail, corresponding to the magnetic pole in the guide groove, to achieve adsorption and pre-positioning.

[0046] Specifically, the working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: the battery body is positioned and guided by the cooperation of the positioning structure 5 and the guiding structure 9, and the battery body is accurately installed in the mounting groove 4, so that the conductive contact 7 connects the power receiving part 8 to the electrical device 1. Then, the battery body is fixed by the elastic locking structure 6, thereby realizing the quick installation of the battery body on the electrical device 1, increasing the installation efficiency and enabling quick battery replacement.

[0047] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this utility model and the contents of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
