DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

The application will be further explained below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Embodiment 1

Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, and 6, a battery module 100 according to Embodiment 1 of the present application is shown. The battery module 100 comprises a cell 10, a busbar 50, a power supply terminal 60, a temperature sensor 40, an elastic member 44 and a case. A plurality of cells 10 are provided. The plurality of cells 10 are fixedly connected together and are connected in series or in parallel to be one power supply. In this embodiment, the plurality of cells 10 are sequentially arranged and fixedly connected together. Every adjacent two cells 10 are electrically connected in series via the busbar 50 to form one power supply. Each of the cells 10 has a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The positive and negative electrodes of the cell 10 are provided with a positive terminal and a negative terminal to be electrically connected to the busbar 50, respectively.

The power supply has a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The power supply terminal 60 is connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the power supply via the busbar 50 and is used for implementing the function of charging and discharging and storing electricity. In this embodiment, the power supply terminal 60 comprises a positive terminal and a negative terminal. The positive terminal is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the power supply, and the negative terminal is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the power supply.

The battery module 100 is rechargeable and can be repeatedly used. The battery module 100 comprises a high voltage electrical signal. The case can insulate a conductive assembly comprising the power supply terminal 60, the busbar 50, and the like. The battery module 100 in this embodiment may be applied to an electric vehicle for powering the electric vehicle.

The temperature sensor 40 is arranged to be capable of coming into contact with a cell 10 and is used for detecting the temperature of the cell 10. For example, the temperature sensor 40 is directly arranged to be connected to the cell 10 to enable contact, or may come into contact with the cell 10 via other structures. The elastic member 44 is arranged on the temperature sensor 40. The elastic member 44 has desirable elasticity and will elastically deform when being pressed by an external force, so that a force in a direction towards the cell 10 is applied to the temperature sensor 40 to press the temperature sensor 40 against a surface of the cell 10 to be in contact with the cell 10. The elastic member 44 is fixedly connected to the temperature sensor 40. For example, the temperature sensor 40 may be fixedly connected to the elastic member 44 in a bonding manner, a snap-fit manner, or the like. In this embodiment, the elastic member 44 is a foam material. The temperature sensor 40 is bonded to an end of the foam material in the length direction. Certainly, in other embodiments, the elastic member may also be arranged as a spring, an air cushion or other elastic members.

Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the case comprises a housing body 20, a cover plate 30 and an openable and closable door 36. The housing body 20 is arranged on the plurality of cells 10 and is used for connecting the plurality of cells 10 together. The housing body 20 is further used for supporting a plurality of components, for example, the temperature sensor. The housing body 20 is provided with a first through-hole 22. The first through-hole 22 is arranged to pass through the housing body 20 and to be in communication with the surface of the cells 10. The cover plate 30 is used to cover the housing body 20 and used for covering the components on the housing body 20. When the cover plate 30 covers the housing body 20, a receiving cavity is defined. The first through-hole 22 is connected to the receiving cavity. The cover plate 30 is provided with a second through-hole 31. The second through-hole 31 is connected to the receiving cavity. The second through-hole 31 is arranged in a position corresponding to the first through-hole 22. The temperature sensor 40 is at least partially located in the first through-hole 22. The elastic member 44 is arranged on the temperature sensor 40 and is at least partially located in the receiving cavity. The temperature sensor 40 may be electrically connected to a printed circuit board 42 to transmit a temperature signal. For example, the printed circuit board 42 may be at least partially arranged in the first through-hole 22.

The openable and closable door 36 may be rotatably mounted on the cover plate 30, and the openable and closable door 36 and the cover plate 30 are integrally molded as a single piece. The openable and closable door 36 is rotatable relative to the cover plate 30. The openable and closable door 36 has an open position and a closed position. As the openable and closable door 36 rotates relative to the cover plate 30, the openable and closable door 36 is rotatable from the open position to the closed position.

Referring to FIG. 4 to FIG. 6, when the openable and closable door 36 is in the open position, the openable and closable door 36 is located outside the second through-hole 31, opens the second through-hole 31, and unblock the second through-hole 31 to expose the components. Because the first through-hole 22 and the second through-hole 31 are arranged correspondingly, in the open position, one end of the elastic member 44 is arranged on the temperature sensor 40, and the other end thereof passes out of the second through-hole 31.

Referring to FIG. 7 to FIG. 10, when the openable and closable door 36 is in the closed position, the openable and closable door 36 at least partially blocks the second through-hole 31 and covers the components on the housing body 20. The openable and closable door 36 is connected to the housing body 20 or the cover plate 30 to prevent the openable and closable door 36 from rotating towards the outside of the second through-hole 31. When the openable and closable door 36 is rotated from the open position to the closed position, the elastic member 44 is pressed to enable the elastic member 44 to stay elastically deformed, and the elastic member 44 applies a force in a direction towards the cell 10 to the temperature sensor 40 to press the temperature sensor 40 against the surface of the cell 10. The temperature sensor 40 is in full contact with the cell 10 to detect the temperature of the cell 10. When the detected temperature of the cell 10 is relatively high, a corresponding safety measure may be adopted.

In the open position, the openable and closable door 36 does not block the second through-hole 31. The position of the temperature sensor 40 is aligned with the position of the second through-hole 31. Therefore, mounting positions and states of the temperature sensor 40 and the elastic member 44 may be examined through the opened second through-hole 31, so that it can be ensured that when the openable and closable door 36 is rotated to the closed position, the temperature sensor 40 is in full contact with the cell 10 to reliably detect the temperature of the cell 10.

In a specific implementation, the temperature sensor 40 is fixedly connected to the elastic member 44. The temperature sensor 40 and the elastic member 44 are placed on the surface of the cell 10. The housing body 20 is arranged on the cell 10. The cover plate 30 is used to cover the housing body 20. The openable and closable door 36 is in the open position. The temperature sensor 40 is located in the first through-hole 22, a part of the elastic member 44 is located in the receiving cavity, and a part thereof passes out of the second through-hole 31. Subsequently, the mounting positions and states of the temperature sensor 40 and the elastic member 44 are observed through the second through-hole 31. If a detection result meets a requirement, the openable and closable door 36 is rotated to the closed position, and it can be ensured that the temperature sensor 40 can be in full contact with the cell 10 to reliably and accurately detect the temperature of the cell 10. If the detection result does not meet a requirement, the temperature sensor 40 and the elastic member 44 may be mounted again or the mounting positions of the temperature sensor 40 and the elastic member 44 may be adjusted. In the closed position, the elastic member 44 is located between the openable and closable door 36 and the temperature sensor 40.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 10, the cover plate 30 and the openable and closable door 36 are integrated as a single piece. The cover plate 30 may be rotatably connected to the openable and closable door 36 via a bendable portion 34. One end of the openable and closable door 36 is connected to the cover plate 30 via a bendable portion 34, and the other end thereof is danglingly arranged as a free end. For example, the cover plate 30 and the openable and closable door 36 may be integrally molded or integrally arranged by other existing technologies.

The bendable portion 34 is sheet-shaped. The bendable portion 34 has a thickness smaller than that of the openable and closable door 36. Compared with the openable and closable door 36 and the cover plate 30, the bendable portion 34 is a leaf spring-shaped structure with a smaller thickness, and has better elastic deformability. The bendable portion 34 can be bent in a thickness direction and thus elastically deformed, so as to enable the openable and closable door 36 to rotate relative to the cover plate 30.

An angle at which the openable and closable door 36 is rotatable relative to the cover plate 30 may be specifically set as required. The quantity of the bendable portion 34 may be correspondingly set based on the angle. When the openable and closable door 36 is in the open position, an acute angle, a right angle, an obtuse angle or an included angle equal to or larger than 180 degrees may be formed between the openable and closable door 36 and the second through-hole 31, such that a part of the elastic member 44 passes out of the second through-hole 31. When the openable and closable door 36 is in the closed position, the openable and closable door 36 is arranged to be flush with the cover plate 30, such that the second through-hole 31 may be at least partially blocked. The quantity of the bendable portion 34 may be set as required. In this embodiment, one bendable portion 34 is arranged on the openable and closable door 36. The openable and closable door 36 may be rotated to the open position where a right angle is approximately formed between the openable and closable door 36 and the second through-hole 31.

When the openable and closable door 36 is in the closed position, the openable and closable door 36 is connected to the housing body 20 or the cover plate 30, so that the openable and closable door 36 does not rotate towards the outside of the second through-hole 31, and as a result, the openable and closable door 36 cannot keep the elastic member 44 deformed. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8 to FIG. 10, when being rotated to the closed position, the openable and closable door 36 is connected to the housing body 20 in a snap-fitted manner to prevent the openable and closable door 36 from rotating towards the outside of the second through-hole 31. Specifically, an elastic hook 38 is protrudingly provided on the openable and closable door 36. A blocking portion 26 is arranged on the housing body 20. When the openable and closable door 36 is rotated from the open position to the closed position, the elastic hook 38 elastically deforms and moves over the blocking portion 26, and the elastic hook 38 is snap-fitted with the blocking portion 26. The blocking portion 26 stops the elastic hook 38 to prevent the openable and closable door 36 from rotating towards the outside of the second through-hole 31.

The shape of the housing body 20 may be specifically set as required, provided that the cover plate 30 can cover the housing body 20. In this embodiment, the cover plate 30 covers the housing body 20, the cover plate 30 and the housing body 20 define a receiving cavity. The first through-hole 22 is connected to the receiving cavity. As shown in FIG. 2, the housing body 20 comprises a bottom wall and a side wall protruding beyond the bottom wall. The cover plate 30, the bottom wall, and the side wall define the receiving cavity together.

When the openable and closable door 36 is in the open position, a part of the elastic member 44 is located in the receiving cavity, and a part thereof passes out of the second through-hole 31. When the openable and closable door 36 is in the closed position, the elastic member 44 is compressed in the case by the openable and closable door 36. As the openable and closable door 36 is switched between the open position and the closed position, the elastic member 44 is elastically released or compressed. As shown in FIG. 2, to position the mounting position of the elastic member 44, the housing body 20 is inwardly protrudingly provided with a positioning bracket 24. For example, the positioning bracket 24 may protrude inwardly from the bottom wall or the side wall of the housing body 20. The positioning bracket 24 is located on a circumferential side of the elastic member 44 and retains the elastic member 44. The positioning bracket 24 retains the elastic member 44 and may guide the deformation of the elastic member 44 to prevent the elastic member 44 from displacement. The blocking portion 26 may be fixedly arranged on the positioning bracket 24.

The busbar 50 may be at least partially accommodated in the receiving cavity. The positive terminal and the negative terminal may extend into the receiving cavity from the cell 10 through the first through-hole 22. The positive terminal and the negative terminal may be electrically connected to the busbar 50 in the receiving cavity. The positive terminal and the negative terminal are respectively mounted on the housing body 20. The positive terminal and the negative terminal are partially located in the receiving cavity and partially pass out of the receiving cavity for connecting to an external conductive member.

When the openable and closable door 36 is in the open position, the mounting positions and states of the temperature sensor 40 and the elastic member 44 may be examined through the opened second through-hole 31. Especially, a contact state between the temperature sensor 40 and the cell 10 is examined. When the openable and closable door 36 is in the closed position, it can be ensured that the temperature sensor 40 is in full contact with the cell 10 to reliably detect the temperature of the cell 10. The openable and closable door 36 and the cover plate 30 may be integrated as a single piece, so that the quantity of parts to be assembled is reduced, and a mounting procedure is simplified. The openable and closable door 36 in the closed position is not higher than the cover plate 30. The overall height of the battery module 100 can be smaller.

Embodiment 2

Referring to FIGS. 11 to 14, a battery module 100 according to Embodiment 2 of the present application is shown. Different from Embodiment 1, at least two of the bendable portions 34 are arranged on the openable and closable door 36. One end of the openable and closable door 36 is connected to the cover plate 30 via the at least two bendable portions 34, and the other end thereof is danglingly arranged as a free end. The at least two bendable portions 34 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the openable and closable door 36. The at least two bendable portions 34 can both be bent in the thickness direction and elastically deformed. The at least two bendable portions 34 are bent and thus deformed at the same time, so that the openable and closable door 36 can be rotated to the open position where an included angle larger than 180 degrees is formed between the openable and closable door and the second through-hole. In this embodiment, two bendable portions 34 are provided. The two bendable portions 34 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the openable and closable door 36.

The other end of the openable and closable door 36 is also connected to the cover plate 30. Specifically, a slot 32 is provided in an outer surface of the cover plate 30. The slot 32 may be arranged to pass through the cover plate 30 along the thickness direction. The cover plate 30 is provided with an elastic cantilever 33 protruding into the slot 32. One end of the elastic cantilever 33 is connected to the cover plate 30 and is a fixed end, and the other end thereof is danglingly located in the slot 32. When the openable and closable door 36 is in the open position, the other end of the openable and closable door 36 is inserted into the slot 32 and presses a free end of the elastic cantilever 33, so that the elastic cantilever 33 can be elastically deformed. The deformed elastic cantilever 33 enables the openable and closable door 36 to be pressed against an inner surface of the slot 32.

Referring to FIG. 15 and FIG. 16, when the openable and closable door 36 needs to be rotated from the open position to the closed position, an external force is applied to a certain extent to overcome the pressing force of the elastic cantilever 33, such that the openable and closable door 36 can be detached from the slot 32. The openable and closable door 36 is then rotated to the closed position.

When the openable and closable door 36 is in the open position, two ends of the openable and closable door 36 are both connected to the cover plate 30 and are fixedly arranged. In transportation and assembly procedures, the openable and closable door 36 is fixed onto the cover plate 30 and does not move freely to affect other components.

By providing at least two bendable portions 34, an included angle larger than 180 degrees can be formed between the openable and closable door 36 in the open position and the second through-hole 31. The openable and closable door 36 occupies a small space in a height direction, so that the overall height of the battery module 100 can be reduced. The openable and closable door 36 and the cover plate 30 may even be basically in the same plane in the height direction, so that the overall height of the battery module 100 is further reduced.

The foregoing is merely preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the protect scope of the present application. Any modifications, equivalents or improvements within the spirit of the present application shall be encompassed within the scope of the claims of the present application.
