In one or more embodiments, the cover plate 114 is located above the illustration of the card hole 131, and an elastic member 311 is provided at a corresponding position of the card hole 131. In one or more embodiments, the resilient member 311 is a spring plate. Alternatively, the elastic member 311 may be a spring wire or other suitable form of elastic member. The elastic member 311 is coupled with the cap plate 114 through a laser welding process. Alternatively, the elastic member 311 may be fixed to the cover plate 114 by ultrasonic welding, riveting, or the like. When needle 121 is inserted into card hole 131, elastic piece 311 extends into lock groove 211 of needle 121 and is restrained by end walls at the left and right ends of lock groove 211 in the length direction of needle 121, and is thus locked in lock groove 211 in the length direction of the needle. In one or more embodiments, the length of locking slot 211 along the length of needle 121 is slightly greater than the length of elastic element 311, thereby ensuring that elastic element 311 can be easily extended or inserted into locking slot 211.
As shown in FIG. 4, in one or more embodiments, a handle 132 is attached to each spring 311. The handle 132 is disposed on the second pole and includes a connecting portion 321 and a handle portion 322. The connecting portion 321 has one end connected to the elastic member 311 and the other end extending upward to the end portion 113 of the cell main body 11, and is connected to the handle portion 322. The handle portion 322 is disposed outside (i.e., above in the drawing) the end portion 113 of the cell main body 11. When two adjacent electric cores 10 need to be separated, the handle portion 322 arranged on the outer side of the end portion 113 only needs to be pulled upwards to drive the connecting portion 321 to move upwards, so that the elastic piece 311 is compressed and separated from the locking groove 211, and then the thimble 121 can be pulled out from the clamping hole 131, thereby realizing lossless disassembly of the battery module 1.
The present invention also relates to a vehicle (not shown in the drawings) having the above battery module 1. In one or more embodiments, the vehicle of the present invention is a pure electric vehicle. Alternatively, the vehicle may be a hybrid vehicle, or other suitable vehicle. This vehicle is according to self motorcycle type customization battery module 1 to follow-up can carry out harmless dismantlement and the change to battery module 1 according to actual demand. By using the battery module 1, the space utilization rate of the battery is improved to the greatest extent, the specific energy of the battery is further improved, and the excellent cruising ability of the vehicle is ensured.
So far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in connection with the preferred embodiments shown in the drawings, but it is easily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Equivalent changes or substitutions of related technical features can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the principle of the invention, and the technical scheme after the changes or substitutions can fall into the protection scope of the invention.
