[0056] 1 to 18 , an embodiment of the present application provides a battery pack including a housing 2 and a cell assembly 1 accommodated in the housing 2 .

[0057] The battery cell assembly 1 includes a plurality of battery cells 11. The battery cells 11 can be lithium-ion battery cells, sodium-lithium-ion battery cells, sodium-ion battery cells, magnesium-ion battery cells or other types of battery cells.

[0058] The battery cell 11 can be a hard-shell battery cell or a soft-pack battery cell. Optionally, the battery cell 11 is a hard-shell battery cell.

[0059] The battery cell 11 can be a square battery cell, a cylindrical battery cell or other special-shaped battery cells. Optionally, the battery cell is a cylindrical battery cell, for example, the battery cell can be a 21700 battery cell, a 18650 battery cell, a 46800 battery cell, a 49480 battery cell or other types of cylindrical battery cells.

[0060] In some embodiments, the multiple battery cells 11 may be connected in series, in parallel, or in hybrid connection. Hybrid connection means that the multiple battery cells 11 are connected in both series and parallel connection. Optionally, the multiple battery cells 11 of the battery cell assembly 1 are connected in series.

[0061] In some embodiments, the housing 2 may be a square housing, a cylindrical housing, or a housing of other shapes.

[0062] The housing 2 may be a metal housing, a plastic housing, a metal-plastic composite housing, or a housing made of other materials.

[0063] The housing 2 may be an integrally formed housing, or may be a housing formed by splicing together a plurality of independently formed parts.

[0064] In some embodiments, the housing 2 is a metal housing, which has relatively high strength.

[0065] In some embodiments, the plurality of battery cells 11 are arranged along a first direction Z. Optionally, referring to FIG3 , the plurality of battery cells 11 form a column structure along the first direction Z. Optionally, the plurality of battery cells 11 form a multi-column structure along the first direction Z. For example, the battery cell assembly 1 includes 10 battery cells 11, of which 5 battery cells form a column structure along the first direction Z, and 5 battery cells form another column structure along the first direction Z.

[0066] In some embodiments, each battery cell 11 includes a first electrical connection end and a second electrical connection end that are oppositely arranged along a first direction Z. Optionally, the polarities of the first electrical connection end and the second electrical connection end are opposite, that is, one of the first electrical connection end and the second electrical connection end is a positive electrical connection end, and the other of the first electrical connection end and the second electrical connection end is a negative electrical connection end.

[0067] In some embodiments, the battery cell 11 includes a battery cell case 111 and an electrode terminal 112 .

[0068] In some embodiments, the battery cell 11 includes two electrode terminals 112 , which are respectively disposed at both ends of the battery cell housing 111 along the first direction Z. Optionally, one of the electrode terminals 112 serves as a first electrical connection end, and the other electrode terminal 112 serves as a second electrical connection end.

[0069] In some embodiments, the battery cell 11 includes an electrode assembly 113 housed in a battery cell housing 111. The electrode assembly 113 includes a positive electrode sheet and a negative electrode sheet. During the charge and discharge process of the battery cell 11, active ions (e.g., lithium ions) are intercalated and released back and forth between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet.

[0070] In some embodiments, the electrode assembly 113 includes a separator disposed between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet. The separator separates the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet to provide insulation between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet. The separator can reduce the risk of short circuit between the positive and negative electrode sheets while allowing active ions to pass through.

[0071] In some embodiments, one of the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet is electrically connected to the first electrical connection end, and the other is electrically connected to the second electrical connection end.

[0072] Exemplarily, the cell casing 111 is the first electrical connection end, the electrode terminal 112 is the second electrical connection end, the positive electrode tab is electrically connected to the electrode terminal 112, and the negative electrode tab is electrically connected to the cell casing 111. In this case, the electrode terminal 112 can serve as the positive electrode of the cell 11, and the cell casing 111 can serve as the negative electrode of the cell 11. Alternatively, the positive electrode tab is electrically connected to the cell casing 111, and the negative electrode tab is electrically connected to the electrode terminal 112. In this case, the electrode terminal 112 can serve as the negative electrode of the cell 11, and the cell casing 111 can serve as the positive electrode of the cell 11.

[0073] In some embodiments, the cell housing 111 is used to encapsulate the electrode assembly 113 and components such as the electrolyte. The cell housing 111 can be a steel housing, an aluminum housing, a composite metal housing (such as a copper-aluminum composite housing), or other conductive housings.

[0074] In other embodiments, the cell housing 111 comprises metal, the cell housing 111 serves as a first electrical connection terminal, and the electrode terminal 112 serves as a second electrical connection terminal.

[0075] In some embodiments, the cell housing 111 includes a bottom wall 1111 , and the bottom wall 1111 and the electrode terminal 112 are disposed opposite to each other in the first direction Z.

[0076] In some embodiments, the bottom wall 1111 serves as the first electrical connection end, eliminating the need for a traditional electrode terminal and simplifying the structure of the battery cell 11 .

[0077] In some embodiments, two adjacent battery cells 11 are connected in series along the first direction Z. For example, in two adjacent battery cells 11, the bottom wall 1111 and the electrode terminal 112 of each battery cell 11 are arranged opposite to each other along the first direction Z; the electrode terminal 112 of one battery cell 11 abuts against the bottom wall 1111 of the other battery cell 11 along the first direction Z, so that the two battery cells 11 are connected in series.

[0078] In some embodiments, two adjacent battery cells 11 along the first direction Z are connected in parallel. Alternatively, the bottom walls 1111 of the two battery cells 11 are opposite and connected, so that the two battery cells 11 are connected in parallel; or the electrode terminals 112 of the two battery cells 11 are opposite and connected, so that the two battery cells 11 are connected in parallel.

[0079] In some embodiments, the electrode terminal 112 can be connected to the cell case 111. For example, the battery cell 11 includes a second insulating member 115, at least a portion of which is located between the electrode terminal 112 and the cell case 111, and separates the electrode terminal 112 from the cell case 111, thereby isolating the electrode terminal 112 from the cell case 111 and reducing the risk of short circuits.

[0080] In some embodiments, the battery cell 11 includes a pressure relief portion 114 disposed on the battery cell housing 111. When an abnormality occurs in the battery cell 11, the pressure relief portion 114 activates and forms a pressure relief vent, allowing the contents of the battery cell 11 to be discharged to the outside of the battery cell 11 through the pressure relief vent, thereby reducing the risk of explosion of the battery cell 11. Optionally, the pressure relief portion 114 is disposed on the bottom wall 1111.

[0081] In some examples, the pressure relief portion 114 is integrally formed with the cell housing 111. In alternative examples, the pressure relief portion 114 and the cell housing 111 are formed independently and connected by bonding, welding, or other processes. Optionally, the pressure relief portion 114 may include a pressure relief valve.

[0082] In some embodiments, welding includes, but is not limited to, laser welding, ultrasonic welding, and resistance welding.

[0083] In some embodiments, the pressure relief portion 114 may be a pressure-sensitive or temperature-sensitive element. When the internal pressure or temperature of the battery cell 11 reaches a threshold, the pressure relief portion 114 is activated or a weak structure in the pressure relief portion 114 is destroyed, thereby forming a pressure relief port for the internal pressure or temperature to be released.

[0084] In some embodiments, the battery pack includes multiple busbar assemblies 3 , each busbar assembly 3 connecting adjacent battery cells 11 .

[0085] The busbar assembly 3 can connect two adjacent battery cells 11 in series or in parallel. Optionally, in two adjacent battery cells 11, the battery cell housing 111 and the electrode terminal 112 of each battery cell 11 are arranged relative to each other along the first direction Z; the busbar assembly 3 is connected to the electrode terminal 112 of one battery cell 11, and the busbar assembly 3 is connected to the battery cell housing 111 of the other battery cell 11, so that the two adjacent battery cells 11 are connected in series.

[0086] In some embodiments, the battery pack includes multiple busbar assemblies 3 arranged along a first direction Z, with one busbar assembly 3 connecting two adjacent battery cells 11. Optionally, the multiple busbar assemblies 3 connect multiple battery cells 11 of the battery cell assembly 1 in series.

[0087] In some embodiments, the busbar assembly 3 includes a first busbar 31 and a second busbar 32. In two adjacent battery cells 11, the first busbar 31 is connected to the first electrical connection end of one battery cell 11, and the second busbar 32 is connected to the second electrical connection end of the other battery cell 11.

[0088] Illustratively, in two adjacent battery cells 11 , the first busbar 31 is connected to the bottom wall 1111 of one battery cell 11 , and the second busbar 32 is connected to the electrode terminal 112 of the other battery cell 11 .

[0089] The first busbar 31 may be connected to the bottom wall 1111 by welding, bonding, clamping or other means, and the second busbar 32 may be connected to the electrode terminal 112 by welding, bonding, clamping or other means.

[0090] In some embodiments, the battery pack includes a sampling assembly 4 . The sampling assembly 4 includes a base 41 and a plurality of conductive portions 42 . The plurality of conductive portions 42 are spaced apart from each other along a first direction Z on the base 41 . Each conductive portion 42 connects the first bus 31 and the second bus 32 of each bus assembly 3 .

[0091] Optionally, the number of the conductive portions 42 is the same as the number of the busbar assemblies 3 , and the conductive portions 42 and the busbar assemblies 3 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0092] In an embodiment of the present application, the first bus 31 and the second bus 32 are connected, thereby conducting the first electrical connection end of one battery cell 11 with the second electrical connection end of an adjacent battery cell 11, realizing the series connection of two adjacent battery cells 11, reducing the heat generated by the battery pack during the charging and discharging process, and improving the overcurrent capacity of the battery pack.

[0093] In some embodiments, the sampling component 4 is configured to transmit an electrical signal of the battery cell assembly 1. For example, the electrical signal may include at least one of a voltage signal, a current signal, and a temperature signal.

[0094] The sampling component 4 can be connected to the first bus bar 31 and the second bus bar 32 to transmit the electrical signal of the battery cell assembly 1, thereby simplifying the structure of the battery pack.

[0095] In some embodiments, the battery pack includes a bracket 5 housed in the housing 2. Exemplarily, the bracket 5 can be used to support the battery cell assembly 1.

[0096] In some embodiments, the bracket 5 has an inner cavity, and the battery cell assembly 1 can be disposed in the inner cavity of the bracket 5 .

[0097] In some embodiments, the bracket 5 includes a first bracket 51 and a second bracket 52 arranged along a second direction Y, and the second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction Z. In the second direction Y, the battery cell assembly 1 is arranged between the first bracket 51 and the second bracket 52 .

[0098] For example, the first bracket 51 and the second bracket 52 can clamp the battery cell assembly 1 from both sides. When the battery pack is subjected to external force, the first bracket 51 and the second bracket 52 can limit the movement of the battery cell assembly 1 in the shell 2, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the first bus 31, the second bus 32, the conductive part 42 and the battery cell 11, reducing the risk of short circuit, and improving the stability and reliability of the battery pack.

[0099] In some embodiments, the first bracket 51 is connected to the second bracket 52. For example, the first bracket 51 is connected to the second bracket 52 by snap connection, fastener connection, bonding or other methods.

[0100] In some embodiments, the battery cell 11 is a cylindrical battery cell, and the first bracket 51 and the second bracket 52 both include arc-shaped walls that can cooperate with the arc-shaped surface of the cylindrical battery cell.

[0101] In some embodiments, the first bracket 51 and the second bracket 52 are both insulating brackets. The first bracket 51 and the second bracket 52 can separate the battery cell assembly 1 from the shell 2, thereby reducing the risk of short circuit.

[0102] In some embodiments, the sampling assembly 4 is located on a side of the second bracket 52 facing away from the battery cell assembly 1 . The second bracket 52 defines a first bracket opening 521 , through which the busbar assembly 3 passes and is connected to the sampling assembly 4 .

[0103] In some embodiments, the conductive portion 42 is disposed on a side of the second bracket 52 facing away from the battery cell assembly 1 .

[0104] The first bracket opening 521 is provided to facilitate the first busbar 31 and the second busbar 32 to pass through the second bracket 52 , thereby achieving connection among the conductive portion 42 , the first busbar 31 and the second busbar 32 .

[0105] In some embodiments, there are multiple first bracket openings 521 , and the multiple first bracket openings 521 are spaced apart along the first direction Z. The first busbar 31 and the second busbar 32 of a busbar assembly 3 pass through the same first bracket opening 521 .

[0106] Optionally, the number of the first bracket openings 521 is the same as the number of the busbar assemblies 3 , and the first bracket openings 521 and the busbar assemblies 3 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence.
