[0003] In the prior art, large-section conventional wires are commonly used to transmit current between the battery packs of new energy electric vehicles and the power source. Due to the high current of up to 1000 A when charging the battery pack, the temperature rise of the conventional wires is large, making it difficult to meet the requirements and even causing fires. In addition, the conventional wires use copper cores, and the cost of large-section copper cores is very high.

However, the aluminum busbar wires in the prior art only include a single aluminum busbar. When multiple different conductive components need to be electrically connected separately, multiple aluminum busbar wires need to be provided, which can make the electrical connection inconvenient and result in a large volume and high cost of the electrical connection product.

[0150] However, the present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment. For example, in another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a single cooling channel 10 may be formed in the insulator 13, so that the first metal bar 11 and the second metal bar 12 can be cooled simultaneously by a cooling fluid flowing through the single cooling channel 10.
[0151] As shown in Figures 34 to 41, in the illustrated embodiment, the insulator 13 has a partition 13b that separates the cooling channel 10 from the first metal bar 11 and the second metal bar 12, so that the cooling fluid flowing through the cooling channel 10 cannot physically come into contact with the first metal bar 11 and the second metal bar 12.
[0152] As shown in Figures 34 to 41, in the illustrated embodiment, the insulator 13 is an injection molded part formed directly on the first metal bar 11 and the second metal bar 12 by an embedded injection molding process, and therefore the first metal bar 11, the second metal bar 12, and the insulator 13 are integrated into one piece.

[0158] As shown in Figures 34 to 41, in the illustrated embodiment, the insulating cap 2 has two pipe joints 20 that respectively communicate with the end openings of the two cooling channels 10 of the power transmission component 1, so that the cooling fluid can flow into or out of the two cooling channels 10 through the two pipe joints 20.
[0159] 34 to 41, in the illustrated embodiment, the insulating cap 2 also has a partition rib 22a formed on the inner surface of the end wall 220, and the sealing component 3 also has an isolation rib 3a disposed on and connected to the annular body 30. The isolation rib 3a of the sealing component 3 is compressed between the partition rib 22a of the insulating cap 2 and the end face of the intermediate partition wall 13a of the insulator 13 to isolate the end openings of the two fluid channels 10 from each other and isolate the two pipe joints 20 from each other.
[0160] 34-41, in the illustrated embodiment, the insulating cap 2 is inserted into the housing 5, and the pipe joint 20 of the insulating cap 2 is exposed from the housing 5 for connection to the connecting pipe of the cooling circuit. The insulating cap assembly 200 also includes an external sealing ring 4 attached to the peripheral wall 210 of the insulating cap 2.

[0161] 34 to 41, in the illustrated embodiment, the power transmission component 1 has a cooling channel 10 disposed between a first metal bar 11 and a second metal bar 12, and therefore the first metal bar 11 and the second metal bar 12 can be sufficiently cooled by the cooling fluid flowing through the cooling channel 10. The cooling channel 10 of the present invention has a large cooling area and high cooling efficiency, which can effectively reduce the temperature rise of the power transmission component without increasing the cross-sectional area of the metal bars.
