Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery technology, specifically to battery packs. Background Technology

[0002] New energy batteries are widely used in various fields such as transportation power supply, power storage power supply, new energy storage power supply, aerospace and military industry due to their advantages such as large capacity, high working voltage, strong charge retention capacity and long cycle life.

[0003] A battery pack typically consists of multiple battery cells, which are fixed inside the pack's casing. A battery cell generally includes a cover, casing, electrode assembly, electrode assembly end plates, bare cell insulating sheets, insulating blue film, and a cover plate top cover. The cover is welded to the casing and forms a sealed space protecting the electrode assembly. The bare cell insulating sheets cover the electrode assembly to protect it and prevent short circuits caused by contact between the electrode assembly and the casing. The electrode assembly end plates secure the tabs and provide space for their protection. The insulating blue film mainly covers the outside of the casing, providing external insulation.

[0004] However, since the insulating blue film is mainly made of polymer materials such as PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and PP (polypropylene), and these polymer materials have relatively low surface energy, that is, low adhesive strength, when structural adhesive is used to bond the insulating blue film on the outside of the casing to the battery cell, the bonding effect is poor, and bonding failure is likely to occur, causing the battery cell to detach from the casing. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a battery pack to solve the problem of low adhesion of the insulating film and easy adhesion failure at the joint between the insulating film and the structural adhesive, which leads to the separation of the battery cell from the casing.

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

[0007] Box;

[0008] Multiple battery cells are arranged and housed in the housing, each battery cell having a battery cell housing, the outer surface of which is covered with an insulating film;

[0009] Structural adhesive is applied to the two opposite sides and the bottom surface of each of the battery cells along the thickness direction. The structural adhesive is bonded and fixed to the insulating film to fix each of the battery cells to the housing.

[0010] Along both sides of the cell thickness direction, the bonding area between the insulating film and the structural adhesive is S1; on the bottom surface of the cell, the bonding area between the insulating film and the structural adhesive is S2; along the cell thickness direction, the shear strength of the bond between the insulating film and the structural adhesive is σ, and the pull-out strength is γ; the bonding portion between the insulating film and the structural adhesive is subjected to a tensile force F in the cell thickness direction, satisfying S1 / 2×γ+S2×σ≥1.35F.

[0011] Beneficial Effects: This invention coats the outer surface of the battery cell casing with an insulating film, ensuring the insulation performance of the casing. Structural adhesive is simultaneously applied to the bottom surface and two opposite sides along the thickness direction of the battery cell, ensuring sufficient bonding area between the adhesive and the insulating film, guaranteeing bonding strength. By controlling the bonding area between the adhesive and the insulating film, the shear strength, pull-out strength along the thickness direction of the battery cell, and the tensile force exerted on the bonded portion between the insulating film and the adhesive along the thickness direction satisfy the above-mentioned relationships. This significantly improves the bonding strength between the adhesive and the insulating film in the thickness direction of the battery cell, thereby enhancing the stability of the battery cell after installation in the casing and reducing the risk of the battery cell detaching from the casing due to the peeling of the insulating film and the adhesive, thus improving the safety performance of the battery pack. Furthermore, the adhesive bonding area calculated using the above formula is within a reasonable range, ensuring bonding strength while reducing the amount of adhesive used, thereby lowering operating costs.

[0012] In one optional embodiment, the battery cell is a square cell, meeting the requirement of 1000mm². 2 ≤S1≤2500mm 2 6000mm 2 ≤S2≤11000mm 2 , 2.5Mpa≤σ≤3.5Mpa, 2Mpa≤γ≤3.5Mpa.

[0013] Beneficial effects: In applications using square battery cells, the cell casing is relatively short in length and large in width. By controlling S1 within a suitable range, the pull-out strength of the insulating film and structural adhesive can be ensured, while reducing the amount of structural adhesive used and lowering operating costs. By controlling S2 within a suitable range, the shear strength of the insulating film and structural adhesive can be ensured, again reducing the amount of structural adhesive used and lowering operating costs. By controlling σ within a suitable range, horizontal displacement of the battery cell can be prevented. By controlling γ within a suitable range, vertical pull-out of the battery cell can be prevented.

[0014] In one optional embodiment, S1 = 2 × H1 × L1, where H1 is the coating height between the structural adhesive and the insulating film along the height direction of the battery cell on both sides of the battery cell thickness direction, and L1 is the coating length of the structural adhesive, satisfying 3mm ≤ H1 ≤ 6mm and 130mm ≤ L1 ≤ 270mm.

[0015] Beneficial effects: The bonding area S1 between the structural adhesive and the insulating film is determined by the coating height H1 and coating length L1 of the structural adhesive. Controlling H1 and L1 within a suitable range means controlling S1 within a suitable range. If S1 is too small, the pull-out strength of the insulating film and the structural adhesive will be low, and the side of the battery cell will easily detach from the casing. If S1 is too large, too much structural adhesive will be applied, wasting materials, increasing the cost of use, and making the battery pack heavier.

[0016] In one optional implementation, S2 = W1 × L1, where W1 is the width of the battery cell, satisfying 25mm ≤ W1 ≤ 75mm.

[0017] Beneficial effects: The bonding area S2 between the structural adhesive and the insulating film is determined by the width W1 of the battery cell and the coating length L1 of the structural adhesive. Further controlling W1 within a suitable range allows for control of S2 within a suitable range. If S2 is too small, the shear strength of the insulating film and structural adhesive is low, and the bottom surface of the battery cell is prone to detaching from the casing. If S2 is too large, excessive structural adhesive is applied, wasting material, increasing usage costs, and making the battery pack heavier.

[0018] In one optional embodiment, the battery cell is a blade battery cell, satisfying S1 / 2×γ+S2×σ≥1.5F, 2000mm² 2 ≤S1≤6000mm 2 6000mm 2 ≤S2≤9000mm 2 , 2.5Mpa≤σ≤3.5Mpa, 2Mpa≤γ≤3.5Mpa.

[0019] Beneficial effects: In the application scenario of blade cells, the cell shell is longer but narrower. Therefore, the upper and lower limits of S1 are increased and the upper and lower limits of S2 are decreased. The upper limit of the above formula is also adjusted to ensure that there is sufficient bonding area between the insulating film and the structural adhesive, that is, to ensure sufficient bonding strength, while avoiding waste of structural adhesive and reducing the cost of use.

[0020] In one optional embodiment, S1 = 2 × H1 × L1, where H1 is the coating height between the structural adhesive and the insulating film along the height direction of the battery cell on both sides of the battery cell thickness direction, and L1 is the coating length of the structural adhesive, satisfying 3mm ≤ H1 ≤ 8mm and 350mm ≤ L1 ≤ 550mm.

[0021] Beneficial effects: In the application of blade cells, increasing the coating height H1 and coating length L1 of the structural adhesive can increase S1, ensuring sufficient pull-out strength between the insulating film and the structural adhesive, saving the amount of structural adhesive used, and reducing the cost of use.

[0022] In one optional implementation, S2 = W1 × L1, where W1 is the width of the battery cell, satisfying 14.5mm ≤ W1 ≤ 25mm.

[0023] Beneficial effects: In the application of blade cells, the cell width is relatively narrow, thus reducing the range of cell width. At the same time, maintaining S2 within a suitable range ensures sufficient shear strength between the insulating film and the structural adhesive, saves on the amount of structural adhesive used, and reduces the cost of use.

[0024] In one optional embodiment, the surface energy of the insulating film is Y, which satisfies 35mN / m≤Y≤55mN / m.

[0025] Beneficial effects: By selecting specific materials for the insulating film or by performing surface treatment on the insulating film and selecting appropriate surface energy, the structural adhesive can fully wet the outer surface of the insulating film and form an effective bond, thereby improving the bonding effect between the insulating film and the structural adhesive.

[0026] In one optional embodiment, the adhesive strength of the structural adhesive is R, which satisfies R≥8MPa, and the elongation at break of the structural adhesive is δ, which satisfies δ≥100%.

[0027] Beneficial effects: By controlling the adhesive strength and elongation at break of the structural adhesive, it is possible to ensure that the structural adhesive has sufficient buffering capacity to cushion the impact of external forces on the battery pack, thereby further improving the safety of the battery pack.

[0028] In one optional embodiment, the thickness of the structural adhesive located between adjacent cell housings is T2, satisfying 0.5mm≤T2≤2mm;

[0029] And / or, the thickness of the structural adhesive located between the outermost cell housing and the box body is T3, satisfying 0.5mm≤T3≤2mm.

[0030] Beneficial effects: By controlling the thickness of the structural adhesive between adjacent cell housings and / or between the outermost cell housing and the casing within a suitable range, it is possible to ensure that there is a sufficient thickness of structural adhesive between adjacent cell housings and / or between the outermost cell housing and the casing to buffer external forces, improve bonding strength, prevent cell detachment, and also to use the amount of structural adhesive reasonably, thereby reducing usage costs.

[0046] 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.

[0047] In this embodiment of the invention, the "battery pack" is formed by electrically connecting a certain number of battery cells together and placing them in a housing to protect the battery cells from external impacts, heat, vibration, etc. The battery pack contains two or more battery cells, the specific number depending on the application of the battery pack and the parameters of individual battery groups.

[0048] In this embodiment of the invention, a "cell" refers to a single battery cell capable of independent charging and discharging. The components of a cell may include a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator, an electrolyte, and a housing assembly for encapsulating the positive electrode, negative electrode, separator, and electrolyte. This embodiment of the invention does not impose any particular limitation on the type or shape of the cell; it can be a blade cell, a square cell, or any other type of cell. The cell in this embodiment of the invention can be a lithium-ion cell, a potassium-ion cell, a sodium-ion cell, a lithium-sulfur cell, etc., with lithium-ion cells being particularly preferred. During the charging and discharging process, active ions repeatedly insert and extract between the positive and negative electrode plates. The electrolyte acts as a conductor of ions between the positive and negative electrode plates.

[0049] The following is combined Figures 1 to 12 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0050] According to embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a battery pack is provided, mainly comprising: a housing 1, multiple battery cells 2, and structural adhesive 3. The multiple battery cells 2 are arranged and housed within the housing 1. Each battery cell 2 has a cell housing 201, the outer surface of which is covered with an insulating film 202. The structural adhesive 3 is applied to two opposite sides and the bottom surface of each battery cell 2 along its thickness direction. The structural adhesive 3 is bonded and fixed to the insulating film 202, thereby securing each battery cell 2 to the housing 1.

[0051] Along both sides of the thickness direction of the battery cell 2, the bonding area between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 is S1, in mm. 2On the bottom surface of cell 2, the bonding area between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 is S2, in mm. 2 Along the thickness direction of the battery cell 2, the shear strength of the bond between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 is σ, in MPa, and the pull-out strength is γ, in MPa; the tensile force on the bonded portion between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 in the thickness direction of the battery cell 2 is F, in N, which satisfies S1 / 2×γ+S2×σ≥1.35F.

[0052] Therefore, the battery pack provided in this embodiment of the present invention, by covering the outer surface of the cell housing 201 with an insulating film 202, can ensure the insulation performance of the cell housing 201. Structural adhesive 3 is simultaneously applied to the bottom surface of the cell 2 and its two opposite sides in the thickness direction, ensuring sufficient bonding area between the structural adhesive 3 and the insulating film 202, and guaranteeing bonding strength. By controlling the bonding area between the structural adhesive 3 and the insulating film 202, the shear strength, pull-out strength, and tensile force on the bonded portion between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 in the thickness direction of the cell 2 satisfy the above-mentioned relationships. This significantly improves the bonding strength between the structural adhesive 3 and the insulating film 202 in the thickness direction of the cell 2, thereby enhancing the firmness of the cell 2 after installation in the housing 1, reducing the risk of the cell 2 detaching from the housing 1 due to peeling of the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3, and thus improving the safety performance of the battery pack. In addition, the bonding area of ​​structural adhesive 3 calculated by the above formula is within a reasonable range of use. While ensuring the bonding strength, it also helps to reduce the amount of structural adhesive 3 used, thereby reducing the cost of use.

[0053] Specifically, the thickness direction of cell 2 is also the width direction of housing 1, such as... Figure 1 As indicated by arrow W in the diagram. F represents the total tensile force experienced by the bonded portion between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 along the thickness direction of the battery cell during vibration testing or use. This force can be obtained through testing, such as... Figure 1 As shown, S1 represents the total bonding area between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 on two opposite sides of each cell housing 201 along the thickness direction. The larger S1 and S2 are, the higher the bonding strength and the stronger the connection between the cell 2 and the housing 1. Similarly, the larger σ and γ are, the higher the bonding strength.

[0054] In this embodiment of the invention, the insulating film 202 can be made of polymer materials such as polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), or polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The structural adhesive 3 can be made of acrylic structural adhesive, epoxy structural adhesive, etc.

[0055] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, cell 2 is a square cell, meeting the 1000mm² requirement. 2 ≤S1≤2500mm 2 6000mm 2 ≤S2≤11000mm 2 , 2.5Mpa≤σ≤3.5Mpa, 2Mpa≤γ≤3.5Mpa.

[0056] In applications using square battery cells, the cell casing 201 has a shorter length and a larger width. By controlling S1 within a suitable range, the pull-out strength of the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 can be ensured, while reducing the amount of structural adhesive 3 used and lowering operating costs. By controlling S2 within a suitable range, the shear strength of the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 can be ensured, while also reducing the amount of structural adhesive 3 used and lowering operating costs. By controlling σ within a suitable range, horizontal displacement of the battery cell 2 can be prevented. By controlling γ within a suitable range, vertical pull-out of the battery cell 2 can be prevented, as shown in the figure below. Figure 1 As indicated by arrow H in the diagram.

[0057] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the top of the cell housing 201 has an opening, and the cell 2 also includes a cover plate 203, which covers the opening of the cell housing 201. The cell housing 201 is provided with an electrode group 204, and the electrode group 204 is covered with an insulating sheet 205.

[0058] Furthermore, in one embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, S1 = 2 × H1 × L1, where H1 is the coating height between the structural adhesive 3 and the insulating film 202 along the height direction of the cell 2 on both sides of the thickness direction, referred to as the coating height, and L1 is the coating length of the structural adhesive 3, satisfying 3mm ≤ H1 ≤ 6mm and 130mm ≤ L1 ≤ 270mm. The bonding area S1 between the structural adhesive 3 and the insulating film 202 can be regarded as the area of ​​a rectangle, determined by the coating height H1 and the coating length L1 of the structural adhesive 3. Controlling H1 and L1 within a suitable range means controlling S1 within a suitable range. If S1 is too small, the pull-out strength of the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 will be low, and the side of the cell 2 will easily detach from the casing 1. If S1 is too large, too much structural adhesive 3 will be applied, wasting materials, increasing the cost of use, and making the battery pack heavier.

[0059] It should be noted that the coating length L1 of structural adhesive 3 refers to the dimension of structural adhesive 3 along the length direction of the housing 1, that is, along the length direction of the battery cell 2. The length direction of the housing 1 is as follows: Figure 1As indicated by arrow L in the diagram, the coating length L1 of the structural adhesive 3 can be selected to completely cover the length of the insulating film 202, or it can be selected to partially cover the length of the insulating film 202, depending on the needs.

[0060] For example, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, structural adhesive 3 partially covers the insulating film 202 along the length of the housing 1, which is also the length of the insulating film 202. The length of the insulating film 202, which is also the length of the battery cell 2, is L2, satisfying 150mm≤L2≤380mm.

[0061] It should be noted that the structural adhesive 3 is generally uniformly coated on the two opposite sides and the bottom surface of each cell housing 201 along the thickness direction. When calculating S1, the coating height H1 of the structural adhesive 3 can be the average coating height of the structural adhesive 3. Similarly, the coating length L1 of the structural adhesive 3 can be the average length.

[0062] Furthermore, in one embodiment, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, S2 = W1 × L1, where W1 is the width of cell 2, satisfying 25mm ≤ W1 ≤ 75mm. Specifically, the width of cell housing 201 is W2, then W1 = W2 + 2T1, where T1 is the thickness of insulating film 202, satisfying 0.1mm ≤ T1 ≤ 0.15mm. The bonding area S2 between structural adhesive 3 and the insulating film 202 on the bottom surface of each cell housing 201 can be considered as the area of ​​a rectangle, determined by the width W2 of cell housing 201, the thickness T1 of insulating film 202, and the coating length L1 of structural adhesive 3. Further controlling W1 within a suitable range can control S2 within a suitable range. If S2 is too small, the shear strength of insulating film 202 and structural adhesive 3 is low, and the bottom surface of cell 2 is prone to detach from the casing 1. If S2 is too large, too much structural adhesive 3 is applied, wasting material, increasing the cost of use, and making the battery pack heavier.

[0063] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the cross-section of the structural adhesive 3 on a single battery cell 2 is usually U-shaped, and the structural adhesive 3 between adjacent battery cells 2 are bonded together to form a whole.

[0064] In one embodiment, such as Figures 7 to 12 As shown, cell 2 is a blade cell, satisfying S1 / 2×γ+S2×σ≥1.5F, 2000mm² 2 ≤S1≤6000mm 2 6000mm 2 ≤S2≤9000mm 2 , 2.5Mpa≤σ≤3.5Mpa, 2Mpa≤γ≤3.5Mpa.

[0065] In the application scenario of blade battery cells, the length of the battery cell housing 201 is relatively large, but the width is relatively small. Therefore, the upper and lower limits of S1 are increased and the upper and lower limits of S2 are decreased. The upper limit of the above formula is also adjusted to ensure that there is sufficient bonding area between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3, that is, to ensure sufficient bonding strength, while avoiding waste of structural adhesive 3 and reducing the cost of use.

[0066] Further, in one embodiment, S1 = 2 × H1 × L1, where H1 is the coating height of the structural adhesive 3 along the height direction of the cell 2 on both sides of the thickness direction of the cell 2 between the structural adhesive 3 and the insulating film 202, and L1 is the coating length of the structural adhesive 3, satisfying 3mm ≤ H1 ≤ 8mm and 350mm ≤ L1 ≤ 550mm. In the application scenario of blade cells, increasing the coating height H1 and coating length L1 of the structural adhesive 3 can increase S1, ensuring sufficient pull-out strength between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3, saving the amount of structural adhesive 3 used, and reducing the cost of use.

[0067] Specifically, such as Figure 10 As shown, the coating length of structural adhesive 3 can completely cover the length of insulating film 202, that is, the coating length of structural adhesive 3 is equal to the length of battery cell 2.

[0068] Furthermore, in one embodiment, S2 = W1 × L1, where W1 is the width of the cell 2, satisfying 14.5mm ≤ W1 ≤ 25mm. In the application scenario of blade cells, the width of the cell 2 is relatively narrow, thus reducing the range of the width of the cell 2 while maintaining S2 within a suitable range. This ensures sufficient shear strength between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3, saves on the amount of structural adhesive 3 used, and reduces usage costs.

[0069] In one embodiment, the surface energy of the insulating film 202 is Y, satisfying 35mN / m≤Y≤55mN / m. By selecting the specific material of the insulating film 202, or by performing surface treatment on the insulating film 202, and selecting a suitable surface energy, the structural adhesive 3 can fully wet the outer surface of the insulating film 202 and form an effective bond, thereby improving the bonding effect between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3.

[0070] In one embodiment, the adhesive strength of the structural adhesive 3 is R, which satisfies R≥8MPa, and the elongation at break of the structural adhesive 3 is δ, which satisfies δ≥100%. By controlling the adhesive strength and elongation at break of the structural adhesive 3, it is possible to ensure that the structural adhesive 3 has sufficient buffering capacity to cushion the impact of external forces on the battery pack, thereby further improving the safety of the battery pack.

[0071] In one embodiment, the thickness of the structural adhesive 3 located between adjacent cell housings 201 is T2, satisfying 0.5mm≤T2≤2mm.

[0072] And / or, the thickness of the structural adhesive 3 located between the outermost cell housing 201 and the box 1 is T3, which satisfies 0.5mm≤T3≤2mm.

[0073] By controlling the thickness of the structural adhesive 3 between adjacent cell housings 201 and / or between the outermost cell housing 201 and the housing 1 within a suitable range, it is possible to ensure that there is a sufficient thickness of structural adhesive 3 between adjacent cell housings 201 and / or between the outermost cell housing 201 and the housing 1, so as to buffer external forces, improve bonding strength, prevent cell 2 from falling off, and also make reasonable use of the amount of structural adhesive 3 to reduce usage costs.

[0074] In this embodiment of the invention, the shear strength σ and pull-out strength γ of the bond between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 along the thickness direction of the battery cell 2 can be measured using a universal tensile testing machine.

[0075] For example, the shear test specimens are prepared according to GB / T 7124. Two shear test specimens with dimensions of 100mm × 25mm × 2mm are cut. Structural adhesive 3 is applied to one side of the insulating film 202 of the two shear test specimens, and the bonding area between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 is 25mm × 25mm. The two shear test specimens are then fixed together. The shear test specimens are made of Al3003, and the insulating film 202 is made of PET film. The shear test specimens are repeatedly rolled with a 2kg roller at least five times and then left to stand at room temperature (23±2℃) for 24 hours. After that, the test is started. The two bonded shear test specimens are fixed on the fixtures respectively. A universal tensile testing machine is used to stretch the upper end of one shear test specimen and the lower end of the other shear test specimen at a stretching speed of 50mm / min. The values ​​are read, and the shear strength σ is obtained by dividing the force on the shear test specimen by the bonding area of ​​25mm × 25mm.

[0076] In addition, the pull-out test specimens were prepared according to GB / T 6329. Two 100mm×25mm×2mm pull-out test specimens were cut. Structural adhesive 3 was applied to one side of the insulating film 202 of the two test specimens, with a bonding area of ​​25mm×25mm between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3. The two pull-out test specimens were then fixed together. Al3003 test pieces were used for the pull-out test specimens, and PET film was used for the insulating film 202. The pull-out test specimens were repeatedly rolled five or more times using a 2kg roller and then left to stand at room temperature (23±2℃) for 24 hours. After that, the test was started. The two bonded pull-out test specimens were fixed on the fixtures respectively. A universal tensile testing machine was used to stretch the upper surface of one pull-out test specimen and the lower surface of the other pull-out test specimen at a stretching speed of 50mm / min. The values ​​were recorded, and the pull-out strength γ was obtained by dividing the force on the pull-out test specimen by the bonding area of ​​25mm×25mm.

[0077] The process parameters of the battery pack of this utility model are described in further detail below with reference to specific embodiments. These examples should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.

[0078] Example 1:

[0079] Cell 2 is a square cell. The coating height H1 of structural adhesive 3 is 3.2 mm, the coating length L1 of structural adhesive 3 is 270 mm, and the width W1 of cell 2 is 25 mm. Therefore, S1 = 1728 mm. 2 S2 = 6750mm 2 Along the thickness direction of cell 2, the shear strength σ of the bond between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 is 2.5 MPa, and the pull-out strength γ is 2.53 MPa. Therefore, S1 / 2×γ+S2×σ=19060.9N, and the tensile force F on the bonded portion between the insulating film 202 and the structural adhesive 3 along the thickness direction of cell 2 is 13619N. Simulation analysis of the battery pack and vibration tests along the thickness direction of cell 2 were performed, and the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0080] Example 2:
