[0036] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features described therein can be combined with each other.

[0037] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the illustrations only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.

[0038] In traditional battery pack designs, the PSS (Power Switch System) smart fuse is typically integrated inside the battery pack with the high-voltage control box and connected in series with the battery modules to achieve rapid power-off protection in case of circuit abnormalities. However, this structure requires disassembling the entire battery pack for maintenance or PSS replacement, which is time-consuming and costly. The combined heat from the battery's internal heating and the fuse's own operating heat can easily lead to fuse overheating and failure. Furthermore, the embedded PSS occupies internal space in the battery pack, reducing battery energy density, and the fuse installation complicates internal wiring, affecting module layout and structural stability. In contrast, the external structure design of the battery pack smart fuse requires ensuring the overall sealing, installation stability, and ease of maintenance of the battery system.

[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 9 This utility model provides an external intelligent fuse system for battery packs. The system includes a battery pack body and a fuse module. The fuse module is located outside the battery pack body. By moving the PSS intelligent fuse 200 from inside the battery pack body to the outside, an independent fuse module is formed, reducing the space occupied inside the battery pack. Through the special structural design of the fuse module, the internal layout of the battery pack is significantly simplified and the internal design of the battery pack is optimized while ensuring the stability of the electrical connection. It also makes maintenance convenient, simple to operate, and highly efficient.

[0040] Please see Figures 1 to 8In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the fuse module includes a protective box 100, a fuse 200, and a connecting copper busbar 300, which are fixed inside the protective box 100. The interior of the protective box 100 forms a receiving cavity, into which the fuse 200 is installed along a first direction (X-direction). The connecting copper busbar 300 is disposed inside the protective box 100, with one end connected to the fuse 200 and the other end extending out of the receiving cavity along a second direction (Y-direction), electrically communicating with the interior of the battery pack body. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The fuse 200 is installed perpendicular to the direction of the connecting copper busbar 300. The fuse 200 is installed into the protection box 100 by insertion and is electrically connected to the battery pack body through the connecting copper busbar 300. The structure is compact and the electrical path is short. The fuse 200 and the copper busbar are installed separately in a vertical direction and will not interfere with each other. When replacing the fuse 200, it is not necessary to remove the entire battery pack. The internal fuse 200 can be directly disassembled and installed, which is simple and efficient.

[0041] Please see Figures 1 to 7 In one optional embodiment of this utility model, the protective box 100 includes a box body 110 and an end cap 120 mounted on one side of the box body 110.

The first mounting surface 111 is perpendicular to the second mounting surface 112. The end cap 120 and the box body 110 can be fixed together, for example, by bolts. The fuse 200 can be disassembled and installed by simply removing the bolts and opening the end cap 120. In other embodiments, a quick-release panel can be provided at the bottom of the protective box 100, which is connected to the box body 110 by a snap-fit. When the fuse 200 fails, the fuse 200 can be replaced simply by removing the bottom panel, without disassembling the entire protective box 100.

[0042] Please see Figures 1 to 7In an optional embodiment of this utility model, a first mounting port 1111 and a second mounting port 1121 are respectively formed on the first mounting surface 111 and the second mounting surface 112. The fuse 200 enters the receiving cavity from the second mounting port 1121 along a first direction, and the connecting copper busbar 300 exits the receiving cavity from the second mounting port 1121 along a second direction. Further, the outline shape of the first mounting port 1111 is consistent with the structure of the fuse 200, forming an installation guide path in the first direction, allowing the fuse 200 to enter the receiving cavity along the first mounting port 1111. The fuse 200 is installed in the protective box 100 by plugging and unplugging. The removable end cap 120 at the bottom facilitates quick replacement of faulty components. The installation guide path formed by the outline shape of the first mounting port 1111 facilitates installation of the fuse 200 from the bottom, ensuring correct installation position and more efficient operation.

The sealing member is, for example, a rubber ring, which is fitted into the connecting groove to prevent external environmental corrosion.

[0044] Please see Figures 1 to 7 In an optional embodiment of this utility model, a bracket 130 is further provided inside the housing 110 to fix the fuse 200 and the connecting copper busbar 300, ensuring connection stability and vibration resistance. A locking point is also provided at an appropriate position on the bracket 130 to secure the fuse 200 connection lines, ensuring neatness and stability of the lines. The bracket 130 may include, for example, a fuse bracket 131 and a copper busbar bracket 132. The bracket 130 and the housing 110 can be an integral structure. The fuse bracket 131 is disposed inside the housing 110, supporting and fixing the fuse 200. The copper busbar bracket 132 is supported on one side of the connecting copper busbar 300 and extends out of the receiving cavity along the first mounting opening 1111, connecting with the inside of the battery pack body together with the connecting copper busbar 300. The bracket 130 ensures that the fuse 200 operates stably when the battery pack body is working, and its performance is not affected by external forces such as vibration. A vibration damping layer can also be added to the bracket 130 to further ensure stability.

[0045] Please see Figures 1 to 8In one optional embodiment of this utility model, the fuse 200 has connecting portions 210 at both ends. Connecting portions 210 and connecting copper busbars 300 have corresponding connecting holes. Connecting components mate with the connecting holes to fix the connecting copper busbars 300 and the fuse 200 to the bracket 130. The connecting components are, for example, bolts and nuts. The connecting copper busbars 300 include a positive copper busbar and a negative copper busbar, respectively connected to the positive and negative terminals inside the battery pack body. The two ends of the fuse 200 are connected to the positive and negative copper busbars respectively and secured with nuts. The connecting copper busbars 300 extend from one side of the protection box 100 and connect to the copper busbars inside the battery pack body, capable of carrying the maximum current and maintaining electrical connection consistency, thus achieving electrical connection between the fuse 200 and the battery pack body. In other embodiments, a snap-fit ​​or spring-loaded structure can also be provided on the bracket 130, allowing the fuse 200 to be simply inserted and secured by the elastic structure during installation.

[0046] Please see Figures 1 to 9 In an optional embodiment of this utility model, the fuse 200 can also integrate a diagnostic port on the outside of the end cover 120 of the protection box 100, which is connected to the fuse 200 via a wire to facilitate reading the working status and performing fault analysis; during maintenance, the status data of the fuse 200 can be read through a standard interface to achieve rapid fault location.

[0047] Please see Figures 1 to 9 In one optional embodiment of this utility model, the connecting copper busbar 300 and the copper busbar inside the battery pack body are connected and fixed by a copper busbar bracket 132, and a heat dissipation component 600 is provided at the connection point. The heat dissipation component 600 is, for example, an aluminum heat sink. The heat sink is fixed to the copper busbar bracket 132 by screws. Thermally conductive adhesive can also be added to enhance heat dissipation capacity. The connection point is efficiently cooled by the internal cooling system of the battery pack body. In other embodiments, the external fuse 200 can also be configured with a separate heat dissipation device to avoid the impact of heat accumulation inside the battery pack body on the performance of the fuse 200. For example, heat dissipation devices such as heat sinks or fans can be integrated into the protective box 100 to ensure that the fuse 200 can effectively dissipate heat and prevent overheating from causing a decrease in the performance of the fuse 200.

[0048] Please see Figures 1 to 9In an optional embodiment of this utility model, when the fuse module is externally connected to the battery pack body, the fuse module is connected to the side beam near the BDU (Battery Disconnect Unit) and away from heat sources and vibration zones to ensure the stable and reliable operation of the battery system. Specifically, the connecting copper busbar 300 is bolted to the internal copper busbar of the battery pack body, and the box body 110 of the protection box 100 is bolted to the side beam of the tray. The first mounting surface 111 is fitted with a sealing rubber strip to achieve a seal. The fuse 200 is inserted vertically into the protection box 100 and fixed to the connecting copper busbar 300. The end cap 120 is fixed to the second mounting surface 112 of the box body 110 with screws, and a second layer of sealing material is added between the end cap 120 and the box body 110. When the fuse 200 needs maintenance and replacement, simply lift the vehicle, open the bottom end cap 120, and remove the fuse 200 from the protection box 100 for replacement.

[0049] In summary, the external intelligent fuse system for battery packs of this invention places the PSS intelligent fuse 200 inside an independent protective box 100 outside the battery pack body. This simple arrangement allows for direct contact with the fuse 200 via a detachable end cap 120 for installation and removal. Maintenance and replacement do not require disassembling the internal structure of the battery pack body, reducing time and complexity. The external fuse module allows for a redistribution of space within the battery pack body, thereby improving energy density and storage capacity, reducing complex electrical connections within the battery pack body, and simplifying the design and manufacturing process. The simplified battery pack structure makes the production process more efficient, reducing labor and manufacturing costs. In emergencies such as short circuits or other faults, the external PSS can quickly disconnect the power supply, reducing the risk of battery damage and improving the overall system safety. The fuse module can also dissipate heat in a more spacious environment, avoiding overheating problems caused by the battery itself in the built-in design. Furthermore, the independent fuse module can be customized and adapted to the needs of different electric vehicle models and battery systems. For example, the external PSS can be designed in various specifications, improving the configuration flexibility of the battery pack and facilitating compatibility and adjustment between different electric vehicle models and battery systems.
