For the purpose of simplicity, the elements of the specific examples below are described in a manner that is intended to convey the essence of the embodiments.

Furthermore, the application can be used in different embodiments that are not expressly described below. The following description is provided as an enabling teaching of the application. Studies based on the application will facilitate the development of variations of the application that are not described or rendered obvious by the above description for the application.

[0037] The output pole structure 10 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present application is described below with reference to the attached drawings.

[0038] As shown in FIGS. 1-14, the output pole structure 10 according to the first aspect of the present application is used in a battery pack 100, the battery pack 100 comprising the output pole structure 10 and an end plate 20, the output pole module being arranged on the end plate 20, the output pole structure 10 comprising: a base 1 and an insert 2, the base 1 comprising a seat body 11, a first busbar 12 and a limiting connecting piece 13, one end of the first busbar 12 being located in the seat body 11, the other end of the first busbar 12 extending out of the seat body 11, the limiting connecting piece 13 being a metal piece and arranged on the seat body 11, the limiting connecting piece 13 being adapted to be welded to the end plate 20, the insert 2 comprising a shell 21 and a second busbar 22, the shell 21 being connected to the seat body 11 and the shell 21 and the seat body 11 being insulating pieces, one end of the second busbar 22 being located in the shell 21 and electrically connected to the one end of the first busbar 12 located in the seat body 11, the other end of the second busbar 22 extending out of the shell 21.

[0039] That is, after the base 1 and the insert 2 are assembled in place, the one end of the first busbar 12 located in the seat body 11 is connected to the one end of the second busbar 22 located in the shell 21, the one end of the first busbar 12 located outside the seat body 11 is convenient for the first busbar 12 to be electrically connected to the battery module 30, and the one end of the second busbar 22 located outside the shell 21 is convenient for the second busbar 12 to be electrically connected to an external circuit, so that the battery module 30 can be electrically connected to the external circuit through the first busbar 12 and the second busbar 22 to realize the delivery of current. Through the welding connection of the limiting connecting piece 13 and the end plate 20, the seat body 11 can be fixed on the end plate 20, so as to realize the fixed connection of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20, and the welding connection has large connection rigidity and simple connection structure, so as to better improve the connection efficiency and connection strength of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20.

[0040] According to the output pole structure 10 of the first aspect of the present application, through the welding connection of the limiting connecting piece 13 and the end plate 20, the seat body 11 can be fixed on the end plate 20, so as to realize the fixed connection of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20, and the welding connection has large connection rigidity and simple connection structure, so as to better improve the connection efficiency and connection strength of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first busbar 12 is a copper piece, and an aluminum bar is welded to the one end of the first busbar 12 extending out of the seat body 11. In other embodiments, the first busbar 12 is an aluminum piece.

[0042] According to some embodiments of the present application, the bottom of the seat body 11 is provided with a plug-in column 14, and a mounting groove is formed on the end plate 20, and the plug-in column 14 is adapted to be plugged into the mounting groove. That is, the seat body 11 is connected to the end plate 20 by welding based on the limiting connecting piece 13, and is connected to the end plate 20 by plugging based on the plug-in column 14. In this way, the connection position between the base 1 and the end plate 20 can be better increased, so that the connection strength of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20 can be improved to prevent the output pole structure 10 from falling off the end plate 20. In addition, the matching mode of the plug-in connection is simple, so that the connection difficulty of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20 can be reduced on the basis of improving the connection strength of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20. In addition, after the plug-in column 14 is inserted into the mounting groove, the welding connection of the limiting connecting piece 13 and the end plate 20 is performed, so that the position of the limiting connecting piece 13 on the end plate 20 can be better positioned by the cooperation of the plug-in column 14 and the mounting groove, and the connection difficulty of the limiting connecting piece 13 and the end plate 20 can be reduced.

[0043] According to some embodiments of the present application, the limiting connecting piece 13 and the plug-in column 14 are located on different sides of the seat body 11. That is, the limiting connecting piece 13 can be arranged on the other side of the seat body 11 except the bottom. In this way, the step of the limiting connecting piece 13 interfering with the plug-in column 14 inserting into the mounting groove can be better avoided, and a larger operation space can be provided for the welding connection of the limiting connecting piece 13 to reduce the welding difficulty of the limiting connecting piece 13.

[0044] In a specific example, one end of the limiting connecting piece 13 is fixed on the side of the seat body 11 away from the plug-in column 14, the other end of the limiting connecting piece 13 extends along the extension direction of the plug-in column 14 towards the bottom of the seat body 11, and the other end of the limiting connecting piece 13 is located outside the plug-in column 14. After the plug-in column 14 is inserted into the mounting groove, the limiting connecting piece 13 abuts against the side of the end plate 20 outside the mounting groove, and then the other end of the limiting connecting piece 13 can be fixed on the outer side of the end plate 20 by welding.

[0045] According to some embodiments of the present application, the side of the seat body 11 facing the shell 21 forms a first plug-in part 111, a plug-in groove 112 open to the shell 21 is formed in the first plug-in part 111, a connecting nut 15 is arranged in the plug-in groove 112, a clamping protrusion 113 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the first plug-in part 111, the side of the shell 21 facing the seat body 11 forms a second plug-in part 211, a through hole 212 penetrating through the shell 21 along the axial direction of the second plug-in part 211 is formed in the second plug-in part 211, a connecting bolt 23 screwed with the connecting nut 15 is arranged in the through hole 212, and a clamping arm 213 located on the outer circumferential side of the second plug-in part 211 is formed on the shell 21, and a clamping hole 214 clamped and matched with the clamping protrusion 113 is formed on the clamping arm 213.

[0046] That is, during the process of inserting the plug-in 2 into the base 1, the second plug-in part 211 is gradually inserted into the plug-in slot 112 until the clamping protrusion 113 cooperates with the clamping hole 214 on the clamping arm 213. Through the cooperation of the clamping protrusion 113 and the clamping hole 214, the relative position of the seat body 11 and the shell 21 in the extension direction of the plug-in slot 112 can be better maintained. When the clamping protrusion 113 cooperates with the clamping hole 214, it indicates that the seat body 11 and the shell 21 are installed in place. At this time, the connecting bolt 23 is applied to the connecting nut 15 to make it close to the connecting nut 15 and realize the fixed connection of the base 1 and the plug-in 2 through the screw connection. Therefore, the cooperation of the clamping protrusion 113 and the clamping hole 214 can provide good pre-positioning effect for the connection of the connecting bolt 23 and the connecting nut 15, which is beneficial to improve the connection efficiency of the connecting bolt 23 and the connecting nut 15. Moreover, through the cooperation of the clamping protrusion 113 and the clamping hole 214, the connection stability of the seat body 11 and the shell 21 can be improved, so that the stability of the connection of the base 1 and the plug-in 2 can be improved.

[0047] In addition, the cooperation position of the clamping protrusion 113 and the clamping hole 214 is located on the outer peripheral side of the first plug-in part 111, which facilitates the operator to operate the clamping protrusion 113 to release the clamping relationship between the clamping protrusion 113 and the clamping hole 214, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling the seat body 11 and the shell 21.

[0048] In one specific example, the first bus bar 12 is electrically connected with the connecting nut 15, the first bus bar 12 is provided with a first conductive ring, the first conductive ring is sleeved on the outer peripheral side of the connecting nut 15 and is electrically connected with the connecting nut 15, the second bus bar 22 is provided with a second conductive ring, and the connecting bolt 23 penetrates the second conductive ring. After the base 1 and the plug-in 2 are connected, the first conductive ring and the second conductive ring abut along the axial direction of the connecting bolt 23, and the head of the connecting bolt 23 abuts against the second conductive ring, so that the first bus bar 12 and the second bus bar 22 are electrically connected.

[0049] According to some embodiments of the present application, the inner peripheral surface of the plug-in slot 112 is formed with a limiting groove 114 extending in the extension direction of the plug-in slot 112, and the outer peripheral surface of the second plug-in part 211 is formed with a limiting protrusion 215 which is slidably arranged in the limiting groove 114 in the extension direction of the plug-in slot 112. That is, when the first plug-in part 111 is inserted into the plug-in slot 112, the limiting protrusion 215 is aligned with the limiting groove 114 and inserted, and the limiting protrusion 215 is limited by the limiting groove 114, which can better limit the installation direction of the first plug-in part 111 when it is inserted into the plug-in slot 112, and can better avoid the rotation of the first plug-in part 111 relative to the plug-in slot 112, thereby improving the connection reliability of the seat body 11 and the shell 21.

[0050] According to some embodiments of the present application, the plurality of clamping protrusions 113 and the plurality of clamping arms 213 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of clamping holes 214, thereby better increasing the connection position of the seat body 11 and the shell 21 after being inserted into place, thereby improving the strength of the predetermined positioning function for connecting the connecting bolt 23 and the connecting nut 15, and at the same time, improving the connection strength of the seat body 11 and the shell 21. In addition, the plurality of limiting grooves 114 and the plurality of limiting protrusions 215 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence, thereby forming multiple limiting between the first insertion part 111 and the second insertion part 211, thereby improving the limiting effect of the second insertion part 211 on the first insertion part 111, to further improve the connection reliability of the seat body 11 and the shell 21.

[0051] According to some embodiments of the present application, the number of clamping protrusions 113, clamping arms 213, limiting grooves 114 and limiting protrusions 215 is the same. Therefore, the shell 21 can be flexibly selected according to the installation requirements to be installed on the base 1, that is, the plug-in part 2 can have a plurality of different installation angles relative to the base 1, thereby making the output pole structure 10 can be flexibly adapted to different installation requirements, which is beneficial to improve the application range of the output pole structure 10.

[0052] In a specific example, the clamping protrusions 113, the clamping arms 213, the limiting grooves 114 and the limiting protrusions 215 are each provided with four.

[0053] According to some embodiments of the present application, the head surface of the connecting bolt 23 is provided with an insulating layer, thereby better avoiding the risk of electric shock caused by accidental contact with the connecting bolt 23, and improving the safety protection performance of the output pole structure 10. The plug-in part 2 further comprises an installation handle 24 integrally injection molded with the insulating layer, and the installation handle 24 is configured to be separated from the insulating layer when the torque between the installation handle 24 and the insulating layer is greater than a preset torque threshold. That is, the tightening force can be applied to the connecting bolt 23 by rotating the installation handle 24, and when the connecting bolt 23 and the connecting nut 15 are screwed, continuing to apply the rotating force to the installation handle 24 will cause the installation handle 24 and the insulating layer to rotate relative to each other and separate from the insulating layer in the limit state. Therefore, the preset torque threshold can be set according to the torque of the connecting bolt 23 and the connecting nut 15, thereby avoiding the tightening force applied to the connecting bolt 23 being too large, and when the installation handle 24 and the insulating layer are separated, it indicates that the connecting bolt 23 and the connecting nut 15 have been screwed, thereby eliminating the step of manually detecting whether the connecting bolt 23 and the connecting nut 15 are screwed, thereby reducing personnel costs and improving production efficiency and production rhythm.

[0054] In one specific example, the preset torque threshold range for separating the handle 24 from the insulating layer is 8-10 Nm, so that the fatigue of the connecting bolt 23 caused by excessive tightening force applied to the connecting bolt 23 can be avoided while ensuring the connection strength of the connecting bolt 23 and the connecting nut 15.

[0055] According to some embodiments of the present application, the shell 21 is an integrally injection molded part. Thus, the integrally molded structure not only ensures the structural and performance stability of the shell 21, but also facilitates molding and simple manufacturing, and saves the assembly parts used for connection and the connection process, thereby reducing production cost.

[0056] Specifically, in the production process of the plug-in 2, the connecting bolt 23 and the second bus bar 22 can be packaged into the shell 21 by an injection molding process, and at the same time, the second plug-in part 211, the clamping arm 213, the clamping hole 214, the through hole 212, and the limiting protrusion 215 are formed, and the insulating layer and the mounting handle 24 can be injected at the head of the connecting bolt 23 at the same time, so that the process of connecting each part of the plug-in 2 can be saved, and the production efficiency of the plug-in 2 can be improved.

[0057] According to some embodiments of the present application, the seat body 11 is an integrally injection molded part. Thus, the integrally molded structure not only ensures the structural and performance stability of the seat body 11, but also facilitates molding and simple manufacturing, and saves the assembly parts used for connection and the connection process, thereby reducing production cost.

[0058] Specifically, in the production process of the base 1, the first bus bar 12, the limiting connecting piece 13, and the connecting nut 15 can be packaged into the seat body 11 by an injection molding process, and at the same time, the first plug-in part 111, the plug-in slot 112, the clamping protrusion 113, the limiting slot 114, and the plug-in column 14 are formed, so that the process of connecting each part of the base 1 can be saved, and the production efficiency of the base 1 can be improved.

The end plate 20 is located on one side of the battery module 30, and the first bus bar 12 is electrically connected to the battery module 30 at one end of the seat body 11. The seat body 11 is fixed on the end plate 20 through the welding connection of the limiting connecting piece 13 and the end plate 20, so as to realize the fixed connection of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20. The welding connection has large connection rigidity and simple connection structure, so as to improve the connection efficiency and strength of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20, and further improve the stability of the battery pack 100.

[0061] According to the battery pack 100 of the second aspect of the present application, the seat body 11 can be fixed on the end plate 20 through the welding connection of the limiting connecting piece 13 and the end plate 20, so as to realize the fixed connection of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20, and the welding connection has large connection rigidity and simple connection structure, so that the connection efficiency and the connection strength of the output pole structure 10 and the end plate 20 can be improved, and then the stability of the battery pack 100 can be improved.
