在本申请的描述中,需要说明的是,除非另有明确的规定和限定,术语“安装”、“相连”、“连接”、“附接”应做广义理解,例如,可以是固定连接,也可以是可拆卸连接,或一体地连接;可以是直接相连,也可以通过中间媒介间接相连,可以是两个元件内部的连通。对于本领域的普通技术人员而言,可以根据具体情况理解上述术语在本申请中的具体含义。
本申请中术语“和/或”,仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:存在A,同时存在A和B,存在B这三种情况。另外,本申请中字符“/”,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
本申请中出现的“多个”指的是两个以上(包括两个),同理,“多组”指的是两组以上(包括两组),“多片”指的是两片以上(包括两片)。
电池技术的发展要同时考虑多方面的设计因素,例如,能量密度、放电容量、充放电倍率等性能参数,另外,还需要考虑电池的装配效率。
电池单体组包括层叠设置且电连接的多个电池单体,结构紧凑,占用较小的装配空间。
电池包括箱体、分隔梁和电池单体组,分隔梁和电池单体组设置于箱体内,分隔梁将箱体的内部空间分隔为多个空间,多个空间分别设置电池单体组和其他部件(如线束等)。在一些实施例中,分隔梁的两侧均设置电池单体组,这两个电池单体组通过连接构件电连接,连接构件通常悬空设置,也即,连接构件位于分隔梁的上方,连接构件的两端分别连接于两个电池单体组,此种情况下,连接构件仅连接于两个电池单体组,连接构件与电池单体组的连接可靠性较差,当电池受到振动时,连接构件与电池单体组的连接处容易损坏,进而引发安全风险。
鉴于此,为了解决连接构件与电池单体组的连接可靠性较差导致的电池的安全性较差的问题,发明人经过深入研究,设计了一种技术方案,通过将连接构件固定于固定座,约束连接构件的移动,降低因连接构件移动而导致的连接构件与电池单体组的连接处损坏的风险,来提高电池的安全性。
在这样的电池中,固定座设置于分隔梁,连接构件固定于固定座,连接构件与分隔梁装配稳定,在电池受到振动时,连接构件能够被固定座约束,连接构件相对于分隔梁移动困难,能够减低连接构件与电池单体组的连接处损坏的风险,使得电池具有较高的安全性。

当第一槽侧面511和第二槽侧面512夹持基壁41时,第一槽侧面511可以与第二表面411贴合,第二槽侧面512可以与第三表面412贴合,此时,第一槽侧面511在第二表面411上的投影可以为第一槽侧面511与第二表面411的重叠区域,第二槽侧面512在第三表面412上的投影可以为第二槽侧面512与第三表面412的重叠区域。
在上述方案中,由于L1小于L2,基壁41与第二槽侧面512具有较大的重叠面积,以便于固定座50对连接构件40具有较好的约束效果;同时,两个端壁42凸出于第二表面411,第一槽侧面511与第二表面411相对设置,降低固定座50与连接构件40装配干涉的风险。
