[0002] In new energy vehicles, energy storage systems and other equipment, the battery pack is the core energy carrier, and its internal batteries are usually arranged in groups inside the battery box.

[0003] To improve battery pack assembly efficiency and precision, tooling is often used to position each battery during the battery pack assembly process. Tooling allows batteries to be arranged into the required combination quickly and accurately, thereby improving the production efficiency of battery packs.

[0004] However, the tooling in the related technology can only be used for battery pack assembly. During the battery pack assembly process, it is not possible to apply adhesive between adjacent cells. In other words, the tooling in the related technology is not suitable for battery pack assembly that requires the application of adhesive between adjacent cells. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a battery assembly tooling to solve or improve the problem that tooling in related technologies is not suitable for applying adhesive between adjacent batteries.

[0006] This utility model provides a battery pack assembly tooling for battery pack assembly, comprising:

[0007] Support assembly, the support assembly being provided with a first guide member;

[0008] The mounting components are multiple in number, and each mounting component is used to detachably mount the corresponding battery. Along the extension direction of the first guide, the multiple mounting components are arranged in adjustable positions on the first guide.

[0009] In one alternative embodiment, the first guide extends along a first direction, and the mounting assembly includes two carriers spaced apart along a second direction, with the battery positioned between the two carriers and each carrier being connected to one of the two ends of the battery, the first direction and the second direction intersecting.

[0010] In one alternative embodiment, the two carriers are respectively used to connect to the terminals at both ends of the battery;

[0011] And / or, on the opposing surfaces of the two carrier members, there are limiting grooves for accommodating the pole post. The limiting grooves can limit the pole post in a first direction and a third direction. The limiting grooves have openings that penetrate the end face of the carrier member along the third direction, allowing the pole post to pass through. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction intersect each other.

[0012] And / or, the mounting assembly further includes a connector that connects the two carriers, at least one of the connector and the carriers being slidably connected to the first guide.

[0013] In one alternative embodiment, the support assembly includes a second guide intersecting with the first guide, wherein there are two first guides, and at least one of them is slidably connected to the second guide;

[0014] The mounting assembly includes two support members, which are respectively positioned adjustablely on the two first guide members and are used to jointly support the corresponding batteries.

[0015] In one alternative embodiment, the battery pack tooling further includes a first drive mechanism for driving the two first guide members closer to or further away from each other.

[0016] In one optional embodiment, there are two second guide members, which are spaced apart and arranged opposite to each other along the extension direction of the first guide member, and the first guide member is slidably connected to the two second guide members respectively.

[0017] In one optional embodiment, all the mounting components are slidably connected to the first guide member, and the first guide member is provided with a limiting structure, which is used to limit the mounting components in the extending direction of the first guide member.

[0018] In one alternative embodiment, the battery assembly tooling further includes a second drive mechanism for driving the mounting assembly to slide toward the limiting structure.

[0020] The mounting component has a mounting groove on its surface facing the adjacent mounting component, one end of the elastic member is disposed in the mounting groove, and the other end of the elastic member is used to abut against the adjacent mounting component.

[0021] In one optional embodiment, the mounting assembly has positioning surfaces at both ends in the sliding direction, the positioning surfaces being used to abut against the positioning surfaces of the limiting structure or adjacent mounting assemblies, and in the extending direction of the first guide member, the distance between the two positioning surfaces of the mounting assembly is greater than the size of the battery.

[0022] The battery pack clamp provided in this embodiment of the utility model can increase the spacing between adjacent mounting components by adjusting the position of the mounting components on the first guide member, thereby increasing the operating space and avoiding the problem of the adhesive being scraped off by adjacent batteries when placing batteries coated with adhesive, thus ensuring the integrity and reliability of the adhesive. In addition, it can also reduce the spacing between adjacent mounting components, so that the batteries can squeeze the adhesive to form a uniform adhesive layer, thereby enhancing the bonding effect between batteries and ensuring the overall stability and reliability of the battery pack.

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0035] To improve battery pack assembly efficiency and precision, tooling is often used to position each battery during the battery pack assembly process. Tooling allows batteries to be arranged into the required combination quickly and accurately, thereby improving the production efficiency of battery packs.

[0036] However, the tooling in the related technology can only be used for battery pack assembly, and the tooling is usually fixed and cannot be adjusted. Therefore, during the battery pack assembly process, it is not possible to apply adhesive between adjacent cells. In other words, the tooling in the related technology is not suitable for battery pack assembly that requires the application of adhesive between adjacent cells.

[0037] To address or improve the problem that tooling in related technologies is not suitable for applying adhesives between adjacent batteries, this utility model provides a battery pack tooling.

[0038] The following is combined Figures 1 to 8 This describes the battery pack assembly tooling provided in the embodiments of this utility model.

[0039] Specifically, the battery pack assembly tooling is used for battery pack assembly, and the battery pack assembly tooling includes a support component 1 and an mounting component 2.

[0040] The support assembly 1 includes a first guide member 101. Optionally, the first guide member 101 is a guide rail, which includes, but is not limited to, a guide rod, a guide block, and a guide groove.

[0041] There are multiple mounting components 2. Specifically, the number of mounting components 2 should be greater than or equal to the number of batteries 3 to be assembled. Each mounting component 2 is used to detachably install the corresponding battery 3, that is, the batteries 3 to be assembled are installed one-to-one on the mounting component 2.

[0042] Along the extension direction of the first guide 101, a plurality of mounting components 2 are arranged in adjustable positions on the first guide 101.

[0043] Optionally, multiple mounting components 2 are slidably arranged on the first guide 101 so that any two adjacent mounting components 2 can be close to or far apart, that is, all mounting components 2 are slidably connected to the first guide 101.

[0044] Alternatively, multiple positioning structures may be provided on the first guide member 101, and the multiple positioning structures may be arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the first guide member 101. The mounting component 2 may optionally engage with any one of the positioning structures for limiting.

[0045] For example, the positioning structure is a positioning hole, and the mounting component 2 can be selectively pinned to any one of the positioning holes. In this case, the mounting component 2 can be slidably connected to the first guide 101 or detachably connected.

[0046] In this embodiment, the usage process is described below with the installation component 2 slidably disposed on the first guide member 101 as an example. The installation component 2 is detachably disposed on the first guide member 101 in a similar manner.

[0047] During the battery assembly process, before installing the battery 3, the spacing between two adjacent mounting components 2 can be increased, for example, to make the spacing between two adjacent mounting components 2 the first spacing. Then, an adhesive, such as glue, is applied to the surface of the battery 3 that is used to interface with other batteries 3, and the battery 3 with the adhesive applied is installed on the corresponding mounting component 2.

[0048] Then, the distance between two adjacent mounting components 2 is reduced so that the surfaces of two adjacent batteries 3 can be appropriately pressed together with the adhesive, and then bonded together by the adhesive. For example, the distance between two adjacent mounting components 2 at this time is the second distance. Obviously, the second distance is smaller than the first distance.

[0049] It is understandable that after installing the battery 3, the mounting component 2 is pushed. This can be done either by installing one battery 3 and then pushing the corresponding mounting component 2 to the corresponding position, or by installing all the batteries 3 sequentially after installing the corresponding mounting components 2 and then simultaneously pushing all the mounting components 2 to the corresponding positions.

[0050] Furthermore, the placement of battery 3 can be done manually or by a robot. The pushing and installing component 2 can be done manually or by a corresponding drive mechanism, the details of which will be discussed below.

[0051] This configuration allows the position of the mounting component 2 on the first guide 101 to be adjustable. This increases the spacing between adjacent mounting components 2, expanding the operating space and preventing the adhesive from being scraped off by adjacent batteries 3 when placing batteries 3 coated with adhesive, thus ensuring the integrity and reliability of the adhesive. In addition, it also reduces the spacing between adjacent mounting components 2, allowing the batteries 3 to compress the adhesive and form a uniform adhesive layer, thereby enhancing the bonding effect between batteries 3 and ensuring the overall stability and reliability of the battery pack 3.

[0052] In some embodiments provided by this utility model, the first guide member 101 extends along the first direction X. The mounting assembly 2 includes two carrier members 201, which are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart along the second direction Y, that is, the two carrier members 201 are arranged along the second direction Y, and are arranged opposite to each other with a gap between them.

[0053] The battery 3 is arranged between the two carrier members 201, and the two carrier members 201 are respectively used to connect to the two ends of the battery 3. The first direction X and the second direction Y intersect, for example, they can be perpendicular.

[0054] In this embodiment, the two support members 201 of the mounting component 2 are respectively connected to the two ends of the battery 3, that is, the two support members 201 can support the two ends of the battery 3 respectively, thereby making the forces on the two ends of the battery 3 balanced and improving the stability of the battery.

[0055] In some embodiments provided by this utility model, two carrier members 201 are respectively used to connect to the terminals 301 at both ends of the battery 3. Further, refer to... Figure 2 As shown, the positive terminal 301 and the negative terminal 301 of the battery 3 are respectively disposed at both ends of the battery 3 in the second direction Y, and the positive terminal 301 and the negative terminal 301 can be connected to two carriers 201 respectively.

[0056] In this embodiment, the two carriers 201 of the mounting component 2 are respectively connected to the terminals 301 at both ends of the battery 3. That is, the two carriers 201 can support the terminals 301 at both ends of the battery 3 respectively, without contacting the main body of the battery 3. During the process of taking the battery 3 out and putting it in, they will not come into contact with the surface of the battery 3, thereby avoiding the carriers 201 from affecting the adhesive on the surface of the battery 3.

[0057] In some embodiments provided by this utility model, limiting grooves 2011 are provided on the opposing surfaces of the two support members 201. The limiting grooves 2011 of the two support members 201 are respectively used to accommodate the terminal posts 301 at both ends of the battery 3, and the recessed direction of the limiting grooves 2011 is arranged along the second direction Y. Further, referring to Figure 2As shown, the positive electrode post 301 and the negative electrode post 301 can be respectively placed into the limiting grooves 2011 of the two carrier members 201.

[0058] The limiting groove 2011 can limit the pole post 301 in the first direction X and the third direction Z. Optionally, refer to Figure 4 As shown, the limiting groove 2011 faces or is away from the side wall C of the first direction X, which can limit the pole post 301 in the first direction X; the limiting groove 2011 and the side wall D opposite to the opening 2011a can limit the pole post 301 in the third direction Z.

[0059] Furthermore, the limiting groove 2011 is provided with an opening 2011a that penetrates the end face of the bearing member 201 along the third direction Z. The opening 2011a allows the pole post 301 to pass through, so that the pole post 301 can enter and exit the limiting groove 2011 along the third direction Z through the opening 2011a.

[0060] Furthermore, the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z intersect each other pairwise; optionally, the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other pairwise. For example, refer to... Figure 1 As shown, when the battery pack tooling is in working condition, the third direction Z can be the vertical direction of the battery pack tooling. Correspondingly, the opening 2011a of the limiting groove 2011 is provided on the top end face of the carrier 201.

[0061] In this embodiment, the limiting groove 2011 limits the terminal post 301 in the first direction X and the third direction Z, so that the battery 3 has an accurate installation position on the mounting assembly 2, and can restrict the movement of the terminal post 301 in the first direction X and the third direction Z, ensuring that the battery 3 will not shift or shake during the assembly process, thereby ensuring that the batteries 3 in the battery group are arranged neatly and the terminal post 301 is accurately connected, thus improving the quality and reliability of the battery group.

[0062] The two support members 201 support and position the terminals 301 at both ends of the battery 3, so that the forces at both ends of the battery 3 are balanced, and the battery 3 is prevented from shifting or deforming or stress concentration at the terminals 301.

[0063] In addition, the limiting groove 2011 has an opening 2011a facing the third direction Z, allowing the terminal post 301 to easily enter and exit the limiting groove 2011 in this direction, making the installation and removal of the battery 3 very convenient. Simply align the battery 3 terminal post 301 with the opening 2011a to quickly place and remove the battery 3, without complicated operating steps and tools, which can significantly improve the production efficiency of battery pack assembly.

[0064] Understandably, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the two carriers 201 can be configured as separate structures. After the batteries are assembled and before hoisting, the distance between the carriers 201 is increased before hoisting, so that the assembled batteries 3 can be removed from the fixture. This will be discussed below.

[0065] Of course, the two load-bearing members 201 are not limited to being set as a separate structure; for example, see reference. Figure 8 As shown, in other embodiments, the mounting assembly 2 further includes a connector 202 that connects the two carriers 201, and at least one of the connector 202 and the carriers 201 is slidably connected to the first guide 101.

[0066] For example, Figure 8 The illustration shows an example of two carriers 201 slidably connected to the first guide 101. In embodiments not shown, the carriers 201 may also be slidably connected to the first guide 101 individually, or both carriers 201 and the two carriers 201 may be slidably connected to the first guide 101.

[0067] In this embodiment, the connecting seat 202 rigidly connects the two support members 201 into a whole, which can avoid the problem of left and right displacement or swaying caused by uneven force during the sliding process of the split structure. For example, when the support member 201 slides along the first guide member 101, the connecting seat 202 can ensure that the two support members 201 move synchronously, which can significantly improve the structural reliability of the battery assembly tooling.

[0068] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments provided by this utility model, the support component 1 includes a second guide member 1021.

[0069] The second guide member 1021 intersects with the first guide member 101; for example, the second guide member 1021 is perpendicular to the first guide member 101. Optionally, the second guide member 1021 is a guide rail, which includes, but is not limited to, a guide rod, a guide block, and a guide groove. For example, referring to the above, the first guide member 101 can be arranged along a first direction X, and the second guide member 1021 can be arranged along a second direction Y.

[0070] Furthermore, there are two first guide members 101, and at least one first guide member 101 is slidably connected to a second guide member 1021 so that the two first guide members 101 can move closer to or further away from each other. For example, refer to... Figure 3 The illustration shows an example in which both first guide members 101 are slidably connected to the second guide member 1021. Of course, in some embodiments not shown, one of the two first guide members 101 is fixed to the second guide member 1021, and the other is slidably connected to the second guide member 1021.

[0071] Furthermore, the mounting assembly 2 includes two support members 201, and the two support members 201 are respectively positioned adjustablely on the two first guide members 101. The two support members 201 are used to jointly support the corresponding battery 3. For example, the two support members 201 are respectively slidably mounted on the two first guide members 101.

[0072] Optionally, as described above, each of the two supporting members 201 has a limiting groove 2011 on its opposite surface to accommodate the poles 301 at both ends of the battery 3. The limiting groove 2011 can limit the poles 301 in the first direction X and the third direction Z. The limiting groove 2011 has an opening 2011a that penetrates the end face of the supporting member 201 along the third direction Z, through which the poles 301 can pass.

[0073] In this embodiment, before installing the battery 3 onto the support assembly 1, the two first guide members 101 can be brought closer together so that the two carrier members 201 of the support assembly 1 can jointly support the battery 3. That is, before installing the battery 3, the two first guide members 101 are brought closer together so that the carrier members 201 can stably support the battery 3.

[0074] Furthermore, after all batteries 3 are installed, the two first guide members 101 can be brought closer together to align all batteries 3 in the second direction Y under the pushing action of the support member 201. That is, during group alignment, the first guide members 101 are brought closer together to push all batteries 3 to align in the second direction Y, thereby improving the grouping accuracy.

[0075] After the batteries are assembled, and the hoisting or transfer equipment is connected to the assembled batteries 3, the two first guide members 101 can be moved apart to detach at least one end of the battery 3's terminal post 301 from the corresponding support member 201. Then, the assembled batteries 3 can be hoisted, thus avoiding interference between the batteries 3 and the support member 201 during hoisting and reducing the difficulty of hoisting. That is, when hoisting the batteries 3, the two first guide members 101 are separated, allowing the battery 3's terminal post 301 to detach from the support member 201, avoiding interference.

[0076] Optionally, the support assembly 1 may also include a support base 102, and the second guide 1021 may be disposed on the support base 102.

[0077] refer to Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments provided by this utility model, the battery pack tooling further includes a first driving mechanism 4, which is used to drive two first guide members 101 to move closer or further away.

[0078] In this embodiment, no manual adjustment is required; the opening and closing of the two first guide members 101 are automatically controlled by the drive mechanism, improving operational efficiency. The drive mechanism can precisely control the movement distance of the carrier member 201, ensuring that all batteries 3 are strictly aligned in the second direction Y. The spacing between the carrier members 201 can be quickly adjusted to accommodate different battery models 3, improving the versatility of the tooling.

[0079] Optionally, the first drive mechanism 4 includes a lead screw and a motor. The motor can be mounted on the second guide member 1021 or the support base 102. The lead screw is driven by the output shaft of the motor and is threadedly connected to at least one of the two first guide members 101. For example, the lead screw can be threadedly connected to one of the first guide members 101. Alternatively, the lead screw can be threadedly connected to both first guide members 101, and the threads of the two first guide members 101 have opposite directions of rotation.

[0080] Of course, the first drive mechanism 4 is not limited to being a lead screw and a motor. For example, in some embodiments, the first drive mechanism 4 can also be a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0081] Optionally, the cylinder of the first drive mechanism 4 is connected to the support base 102 or the second guide member 1021, and the piston rod of the first drive mechanism 4 is connected to the first guide member 101. Further, both first guide members 101 have a corresponding first drive mechanism 4, or one of the two first guide members 101 has a corresponding first drive mechanism 4.

[0082] In some embodiments provided by this utility model, there are two second guide members 1021. The two second guide members 1021 are spaced apart and arranged opposite to each other along the extension direction of the first guide member 101. The first guide member 101 is slidably connected to the two second guide members 1021 respectively.

[0083] With this configuration, the two second guide members 1021 jointly support the first guide member 101, thus avoiding the problem of uneven force distribution and deformation of the first guide member 101.

[0084] Optionally, each of the two second guide members 1021 or the support base 102 is provided with a corresponding first drive mechanism 4. In this embodiment, the first drive mechanisms 4 on both sides are independently controlled, which can ensure that the two ends of the first guide member 101 move synchronously, avoiding deflection or jamming caused by unilateral drive, and is especially suitable for uniform force adjustment of long battery packs. The two drive mechanisms work together to provide greater thrust, which is suitable for pushing or separating heavy battery packs and reduces the risk of overload of a single mechanism.

[0085] In some embodiments provided by this utility model, the mounting component 2 is slidably connected to the first guide member 101. A limiting structure 103 is provided on the first guide member 101, which limits the mounting component 2 in the extending direction of the first guide member 101. Optionally, the limiting structure 103 is located at one end of the first guide member 101.

[0086] In this embodiment, the limiting structure 103 can provide a common axial positioning starting point for all the mounting components 2. When the first mounting component 2 contacts the limiting structure 103, it automatically stops moving, ensuring that the initial position of the first battery 3 is accurately fixed. Subsequent mounting components 2 can then abut against each other in sequence, so that the batteries 3 have an accurate relative positional relationship.

[0087] For example, during the battery assembly process, after the mounting components 2 are installed in sequence, precise control of zero gap or preset gap between the batteries 3 can be achieved, meeting the PACK process requirements.

[0088] In addition, if the mounting components 2 need to be arranged in a non-closely arranged manner, such as with a preset distance between them, scale markings can be added to the first guide 101 to help control the spacing between the mounting components 2, thereby further expanding the application scenarios.

[0089] Optionally, limiting structures 103 are provided at both ends of the first guide member 101. In this embodiment, the limiting structures 103 at both ends of the first guide member 101 can constrain the movement range of the mounting component 2 and prevent the mounting component 2 from detaching from the first guide member 101.

[0090] Furthermore, when there are two support seats 102, the limiting structures 103 at both ends of the first guide member 101 are slidably connected to the second guide members 1021 of the corresponding support seats 102, thereby providing support to both ends of the first guide member 101, so that the force on the first guide member 101 is balanced and deformation is reduced.

[0091] In some embodiments provided by this utility model, the battery assembly tooling also includes a second driving mechanism 5, which is used to drive the mounting assembly 2 to slide towards the limiting structure 103. It can be understood that the mounting assembly 2 is located between the limiting mechanism and the second driving mechanism 5.

[0092] In this embodiment, after all the batteries 3 are installed, the second drive mechanism 5 can drive all the mounting components 2 to slide towards the limiting structure 103, so that the first mounting component 2 abuts against the limiting structure 103, and the remaining mounting components 2 abut against each other in sequence.

[0093] This setup replaces the manual pushing and shoving of the mounting components 2, automatically achieving a tight arrangement of all batteries 3 through mechanical force, reducing manual intervention and shortening the assembly time. The drive mechanism continuously applies preload to ensure no gaps between adjacent mounting components 2, guaranteeing that the spacing between adjacent batteries 3 meets design requirements, and improving the assembly quality of the batteries 3.

[0094] Optionally, the second drive mechanism 5 can be a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an electric cylinder. For example, the cylinder body of the second drive mechanism 5 can be connected to the first guide member 101, and the push rod of the second drive mechanism 5 can face the mounting assembly 2. With this configuration, when the first guide member 101 can slide along the second guide member 1021, the second drive mechanism 5 can move synchronously with the first guide member 101, avoiding relative positional deviation between the push rod and the mounting assembly 2.

[0095] Furthermore, when there are two first guide members 101, each of the two first guide members 101 is provided with a corresponding second drive mechanism 5. With this configuration, each of the two guide members is equipped with a drive mechanism, which can apply thrust synchronously from both sides, ensuring that the mounting assembly 2 is subjected to uniform force and preventing the battery pack 3 from deforming due to unilateral pressure.

[0096] Of course, the second drive mechanism 5 is not limited to being disposed on the first guide member 101. For example, in other embodiments, the cylinder of the second drive mechanism 5 is connected to the support base 102, and the push rod of the second drive mechanism 5 is used to abut against the mounting component 2 to directly push the mounting component 2. Alternatively, the push rod of the second drive mechanism 5 can also be used to abut against the battery 3 to indirectly push the mounting component 2.

[0097] In some embodiments provided by this utility model, the support component 1 further includes an elastic element 6. The elastic element 6 includes, but is not limited to, a spring.

[0098] Mounting component 2 has a mounting groove 2012 on its surface facing the adjacent mounting component 2. Specifically, the support member 201 has a mounting groove 2012 on its surface facing the adjacent support member 201, and both support members 201 of the mounting component 2 have corresponding mounting grooves 2012. One end of the elastic member 6 is disposed in the mounting groove 2012, and the other end of the elastic member 6 is used to abut against the adjacent mounting component 2. Specifically, the other end of the elastic member 6 is used to abut against the adjacent support member 201.

[0099] In this embodiment, when the second drive mechanism 5 pushes the mounting components 2 closer to each other, the elastic element 6 is compressed in the mounting groove 2012. Utilizing the energy storage and release characteristics of the elastic element 6, the mounting components 2 can be automatically pushed back after the second drive mechanism 5 is reset, increasing the distance between adjacent mounting components 2, thereby reserving space for the next loading.

[0100] refer to Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments provided by this utility model, the mounting component 2 is provided with positioning surfaces 2013 at both ends in the sliding direction. The positioning surfaces 2013 are used to abut against the positioning surfaces 2013 of the limiting structure 103 or adjacent mounting components 2. In the extending direction of the first guide member 101, the distance between the two positioning surfaces 2013 of the mounting component 2 is greater than the size of the battery 3.

[0101] Optionally, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the distance between the two positioning surfaces 2013 of the mounting component 2 is b2, the size of the battery 3 is b1, b2 is greater than b1, and neither side of the battery 3 extends beyond the corresponding positioning surface 2013.

[0102] In an embodiment where the mounting component 2 includes a carrier 201, the carrier 201 has positioning surfaces 2013 at both ends in the extension direction of the first guide 101. Accordingly, in the extension direction of the first guide 101, the distance between the two positioning surfaces 2013 of the carrier 201 is greater than the size of the battery 3.

[0103] In this embodiment, the positioning surfaces 2013 of the mounting component 2 abut against each other to form a physical stop, so that the driving mechanism thrust cannot further compress the gap between the batteries 3, ensuring that the thrust is converted into rigid contact between the positioning surfaces 2013, rather than continuously squeezing the battery 3 casing, thus avoiding electrode deformation or electrolyte leakage due to overpressure.

[0104] Furthermore, since the battery 3 is mounted on the mounting component 2, it has a unique and definite position on the mounting component 2. Therefore, after the mounting components 2 come into contact, there is a preset gap between the batteries 3 so that the adhesive can remain between the batteries 3 and avoid being squeezed out due to excessive pressure.

[0105] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
