The frame 231 includes a frame body 231a and a supporting member 231b, the frame body 231a is provided with a hollow cavity Q and a mounting hole k1 communicated with the cavity Q, and the supporting member 231b is disposed in the cavity Q. The mounting member 232 includes a mounting body 232a and a stress transferring member 232b, the mounting body 232a is covered at the mounting hole k1, the stress transferring member 232b is arranged at one side of the mounting body 232a facing the cavity Q, and at least part of the stress transferring member 232b is located in the cavity Q and abuts against the supporting member 231b.
The frame body 231a refers to a frame 231 for mounting other parts in the case 200 of the battery 10, and may be provided with a plurality of through holes, which may facilitate the mounting of other parts while reducing the weight. To meet the use environment and the light weight requirements inside the battery 10, the material of the frame body 231a needs to have both a certain rigidity and a certain deformability. Such as aluminum, steel, etc. The frame body 231a may be a unitary structure or a split-assembled structure. The frame body 231a may employ an associated beam structure. The inside of the frame body 231a is a side facing the receiving space of the case 200 in some of the foregoing embodiments. The outer side of the frame body 231a is opposite to the inner side thereof. The mounting hole k1 may be provided at the outer side of the frame body 231a to facilitate assembly of the relevant components. For example, the mounting hole k1 may be opened at a side outside the frame body 231a in the third direction F3.
The cavity Q is a space formed on the inner surface of the frame body 231a, so that the weight of the frame body 231a can be effectively reduced, and the cavity Q can be connected with the mounting member 232.
Referring to fig. 8 in combination, fig. 8 is a schematic view of a partial enlarged structure at a in fig. 7, where the mounting hole k1 communicates with the cavity Q, and the support member 231b is disposed in the cavity Q, which means that the support member 231b is received in the cavity Q. Referring to fig. 9 and 10 in combination, fig. 9 is a partial schematic view of a cross-sectional structure of a frame 231 at one view angle in some embodiments of the present application, and fig. 10 is a partial schematic view of a cross-sectional structure of a frame 231 at another view angle in some embodiments of the present application, at least a portion of a supporting member 231b is connected to an inner wall of a cavity Q. The inner wall of the cavity Q is the inner surface of the frame body 231 a.
Referring to fig. 11 in combination, fig. 11 is a schematic structural view of a mounting member 232 according to some embodiments of the present application, wherein the mounting member 232 is a member for mounting a functional component (e.g., a joint). Specifically, the aforementioned functional components are mounted on the mounting body 232 a. The mounting body 232a may be detachably mounted at the mounting hole k 1. For example, the mounting body 232a may be fixed at the mounting hole k1 by means of a bolt assembly. Of course, the mounting body 232a may be mounted at the mounting hole k1 in a non-detachable manner. The mounting body 232a may be provided in a substantially plate-like structure as illustrated in fig. 11. The mounting body 232a has two opposite sides, one for mounting the functional components and the other with stress transfer members 232b. In a case where the mounting body 232a is mounted at the mounting hole k1 of the frame body 231a, a side of the mounting body 232a for mounting the aforementioned functional component faces away from the cavity Q. The side of the mounting body 232a provided with the stress transfer member 232b faces the cavity Q, the stress transfer member 232b extends into the cavity Q through the mounting hole k1, and the stress transfer member 232b may be partially or completely located in the cavity Q.
The stress transfer member 232b is a member for transferring stress. The stress transfer member 232b is coupled to the mounting body 232a such that at least a portion of the external force is conducted to the stress transfer member 232b when the mounting body 232a is subjected to the external force.
The support 231b is a member for providing a supporting effect. The support 231b may be provided in a plate-like structure illustrated in fig. 8 to 10. In the case where the supporting member 231b abuts against the stress transfer member 232b, the supporting member 231b can provide a supporting effect to the stress transfer member 232b, improving the stability of the stress transfer member 232 b. Since the support 231b is abutted against the stress transfer member 232b, the external force transmitted through the stress transfer member 232b can be transmitted to the support 231b. Since the supporting member 231b is connected to the inner wall of the cavity Q, the external force transmitted through the supporting member 231b can be transmitted to the inner wall of the cavity Q, and the external force can be further dispersed along the inner wall of the cavity Q. The mounting body 232a is not directly connected to the inner wall of the cavity Q, i.e., a new transmission path of external force is added, and the transmission path is also prolonged as a whole.
At least a portion of the supporting member 231b is connected to the inner wall of the cavity Q, which means that each end of the supporting member 231b may be connected to the inner wall of the cavity Q, or only a portion of the end may be connected to the inner wall of the cavity Q. For example, when the supporting member 231b has two opposite ends, one end thereof may be connected to the inner wall of the cavity Q, and the other end thereof may be suspended in the cavity Q. Of course, both ends may be connected to the inner wall of the chamber Q. May be set according to a specific use case, and the embodiment of the present application is not particularly limited thereto.
Thus, by the mutual cooperation of the stress transfer member 232b and the supporting member 231b, not only the external force is dispersed, but also the transmission path of the external force is newly increased, and the transmission path of the external force is prolonged as a whole, thereby weakening the impact of the external force on the frame assembly 230, and improving the reliability of the connection between the mounting member 232 and the frame 231. When the frame assembly 230 is used for the battery 10, the reliability of the battery 10 can be effectively improved.
Referring to fig. 10 to 12, fig. 12 is a schematic view of a partial enlarged structure at B in fig. 11, the supporting member 231B has a supporting surface m1, and the stress transferring member 232B has an abutting surface m2 according to some embodiments of the present application. Referring to fig. 13 in combination, fig. 13 is a schematic partial cross-sectional view of a frame assembly 230 according to some embodiments of the present application, where a supporting surface m1 and an abutting surface m2 are not shown in fig. 13, and the supporting surface m1 and the abutting surface m2 abut against each other.
It is understood that the product of the abutment surface m2 between the support surface m1 and the abutment surface m2 can be set according to the use requirement. The contact between the support surface m1 and the contact surface m2 may be continuous or discontinuous. Taking the support surface m1 as an example, continuous abutment means that the abutment portion of the support surface m1 is continuous, not intermittent. For example, all of the support surface m1 may abut against all of the abutment surface m2. Discontinuous abutment means that the abutment portion of the support surface m1 is discontinuous and intermittent. For example, the supporting surface m1 may have two portions abutting against the abutting surface m2, and the two portions may be disposed at a spacing. The contact manner of the contact surface m2 may be described with reference to the contact manner of the support surface m1, and will not be described in detail here. For example, fig. 12 illustrates a case where the abutment surface m2 is discontinuous, and the supporting surface m1 and the abutment surface m2 may be planar or non-planar. For example, fig. 10 illustrates a case where the support surface m1 is planar, and fig. 12 illustrates a case where the abutment surface m2 is planar.
In this way, by providing the support surface m1 and the abutment surface m2 and disposing the abutment form between the support 231b and the stress transfer member in the surface abutment manner, the abutment surface m2 can be increased, so that the abutment stability between the support 231b and the stress transfer member can be further improved, and the transfer of external force can be facilitated.
With continued reference to fig. 9 and 10, the support 231b has a plurality of connection ends D, each of which is connected to the inner wall of the corresponding cavity Q. For example, the number of connection terminals D may be two, three, five or other numbers. Fig. 9 and 10 illustrate a case where three connection ends D of the supporting pieces 231b are provided, for example. The connection ends D may be connected to different portions of the inner wall of the cavity Q, so long as the supporting member 231b can abut against the stress transferring member 232b, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.
It is understood that, in the case that the supporting member 231b has a plurality of connection ends D, the external force applied by the supporting member 231b can be transmitted to the corresponding portions of the inner wall of the cavity Q through the plurality of connection ends D, so that the external force can be dispersed to more areas.
Thus, by setting a plurality of connection ends D, the stability of the supporting member 231b can be further improved, and the external force can be transferred to the corresponding inner wall of the cavity Q via the corresponding connection end D, thereby being more beneficial to the dispersion of the external force.
With continued reference to fig. 9 and 10, one of the plurality of connection terminals D is connected to an inner wall of the cavity Q opposite to the mounting hole k1 according to some embodiments of the present application.
In this way, since the opposite inner walls are relatively far from the mounting hole k1, the transmission path of the external force can be further extended, and the external force on the outer side of the frame body 231a can be further transmitted to the inner side of the frame body 231a, so that the inner side of the frame body 231a participates in dispersing the external force, thereby being more beneficial to dispersing the external force.
Referring to fig. 9 and 10, one of the connection terminals D is a first connection terminal D1, and the other connection terminal D is a second connection terminal D2. The first connecting end D1 and the second connecting end D2 are disposed opposite to each other and are respectively connected to the inner wall of the corresponding cavity Q. The portion of the supporting member 231b extending from the first connecting end D1 to the second connecting end D2 abuts against the stress transferring member 232 b.
Since the opposite ends of the portion of the supporting member 231b abutting against the stress transferring member 232b are the first connecting end D1 and the second connecting end D2, respectively, that is, the portion of the supporting member 231b is more stable, so that the stability of the portion of the supporting member 231b abutting against the stress transferring member 232b is higher, thereby being more beneficial to transferring external force. Furthermore, the support surface m1 illustrated in some of the foregoing embodiments is also facilitated by the support 231b of this form.
According to some embodiments of the present application, please continue to refer to fig. 9 and 10, the first connecting end D1 points in the direction of the second connecting end D2, and the opening direction of the mounting hole k1 is perpendicular to each other. Taking fig. 9 and 10 as an example, in the case where the portion of the supporting member 231b located at the first connection end D1 and the second connection end D2 is disposed to extend straight, the extending direction of the portion of the supporting member 231b located at the first connection end D1 and the second connection end D2 is the first direction F1, and the opening direction of the mounting hole k1 is the third direction F3. Of course, one of the first and second connection ends D1 and D2 may be closer to the mounting hole k1 than the other, and the supporting member 231b between the first and second connection ends D1 and D2 may be inclined with respect to the first direction F1.
In this way, the arrangement of the portion of the support 231b abutting the stress transfer member 232b with respect to the mounting hole k1 can be flexibly set to facilitate transfer of the external force.
With continued reference to fig. 11 and 12, according to some embodiments of the present application, the mounting member 232 further includes a first reinforcing member 232c, the first reinforcing member 232c being coupled to the mounting body 232a and the stress transferring member 232b, respectively.
It is understood that the first reinforcement 232c may be provided in the form of a reinforcing rib. Taking fig. 11 and 12 as an example, the first reinforcement 232c may be provided in plurality, and the plurality of first reinforcements 232c may be sequentially spaced apart in the first direction F1. The stress transfer member 232b may be provided with first reinforcing members 232c on both sides in the first direction F1. The first reinforcing members 232c disposed at both sides of the stress transfer member 232b along the first direction F1 may be symmetrically disposed or asymmetrically disposed. The mounting body 232a, the stress transfer member 232b, and the first reinforcing member 232c may be of a unitary structure or of a split structure. The integrated structure is manufactured through an integrated forming related process, and the split structure is a structure for connecting different parts together.
In this way, the stability and reliability of the stress transfer member 232b can be improved by providing the first reinforcing member 232c. Accordingly, the desired reinforcement can also be achieved by configuring the location, number and form of the first reinforcement 232c.
With continued reference to fig. 8, 9 and 13, according to some embodiments of the present application, the frame body 231a is further provided with a mounting hole p in communication with the cavity Q, and the mounting hole p and the mounting hole k1 are located on different sides of the frame body 231 a.
By providing the fitting hole p on the different side from the fitting hole k1 in this way, the space around the frame body 231a can be more effectively used for fitting.
According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to fig. 8, 9 and 13, the assembly holes p are provided in plurality, and the plurality of assembly holes p are spaced apart from each other along the predetermined direction Y. The preset direction Y and the second direction F2 are illustrated as being parallel to each other.
In this way, by providing a plurality of spaced mounting holes p, different components can be mounted respectively, and strength at the mounting holes p can be further improved as compared with a manner in which different components are mounted through one mounting hole p.
According to some embodiments of the present application, please continue to refer to fig. 8, 9 and 13, along the predetermined direction Y, a spacer j is defined between two adjacent assembly holes p, and the spacer j is connected to the supporting member 231 b.
By connecting the spacer j to the support 231b in this way, the external force can be transmitted to the side wall x2 of the escape groove x via the spacer j and then to the inner wall of the cavity Q opposite to the mounting hole k 1. Thus, the transmission path of the external force can be further increased, and the transmission path is also relatively long, which is also advantageous for dispersing the external force.
With continued reference to fig. 8, 9 and 13, the mounting holes p and the mounting holes k1 are located on adjacent sides of the frame body 231a according to some embodiments of the present application.
In this way, by providing the fitting hole p and the mounting hole k1 as the adjacent sides of the frame body 231a, not only the space required for fitting can be further reduced, but also fitting can be facilitated.
With continued reference to fig. 8, 9, 10 and 13, according to some embodiments of the present application, a side surface of the frame body 231a is provided with a relief groove x. The bottom wall x1 of the avoidance groove x is provided with an assembly hole p. Of course, the number and arrangement of the assembly holes p may refer to the situation illustrated in the foregoing embodiments, and will not be described herein.

With continued reference to fig. 8, 9 and 13, according to some embodiments of the present application, the frame 231 further includes a second reinforcement 231c, and the second reinforcement 231c is connected between the support 231b and the wall of the relief groove x. The second reinforcement 231c may be connected to the bottom wall x1 of the escape recess x, may be connected to the side wall x2 of the escape recess x, and may be connected to the bottom wall x1 and the side wall x2 of the escape recess x, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.
In this way, by providing the second reinforcement 231c, a transmission path of the external force to the wall of the escape groove x via the support 231b, the second reinforcement 231c can be constructed, further facilitating the transfer of the external force. In addition, the second reinforcement 231c can further improve the strength of the supporting member 231b and the wall of the escape groove x.
In the case illustrated in fig. 8, 9, and 13, the spacer j and the second reinforcement 231c are the same member. That is, it can be understood that the bottom wall x1 of the avoidance groove x is provided with the fitting hole p where the second reinforcement 231c is provided, the second reinforcement 231c spacing the fitting hole p into the plurality of fitting holes p. Of course, it is also understood that a portion of the supporting member 231b constitutes a portion of the side wall x2 of the escape recess x. For another example, it is also understood that one end of the supporting member 231b is connected to the junction of the bottom wall x1 and the side wall x2 of the escape groove x. In the case of the arrangement shown in fig. 8, 9 and 13, the space of the cavity Q can be further effectively utilized, so that the overall structure is more compact and the overall structural strength is improved.

That is, in the illustrated case, the extending direction of the third reinforcement 231d and the extending direction of the frame body 231a are both the second direction F2. The number of the third reinforcement 231d may be set according to the space of the cavity Q, for example, the number of the third reinforcement 231d may be one, two, three, or other numbers. In the case illustrated in fig. 9, 10 and 13, the number of the third stiffeners 231d is two, and are arranged at intervals along the first direction F1. The third reinforcement 231d may be provided in a plate-like structure, for example.
In this way, by providing the third reinforcement 231d in the cavity Q, not only the space in the cavity Q can be effectively utilized, but also the strength of the frame body 231a can be further reinforced.
With continued reference to fig. 9, 10 and 13, the third reinforcing member 231d is provided with a relief portion k2 according to some embodiments of the present application. The relief portion k2 may be provided in a through hole structure as illustrated in the drawings, or may be provided in a recessed structure, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application. In the case where a plurality of third stiffeners 231d are provided, the relief portions k2 may be provided in the corresponding third stiffeners 231 d. For example, in fig. 9, 10 and 13, the relief portion k2 is provided on the third reinforcement 231d closer to the relief groove x in the first direction F1. The number of avoiding portions k2 may be set according to actual use requirements. For example, in fig. 9, 10 and 13, two relief portions k2 are provided on the third reinforcement 231d closer to the relief groove x at intervals in the second direction F2 in order. Further, the position of the avoidance portion k2 may be adapted to the fitting hole p on the avoidance groove x.
