The control circuit board 8 is electrically connected with the cells 2. The control circuit board 8 is located in the accommodating cavity 7. The control circuit board 8 is connected with the energy storage housing 1/front shell 5/rear shell 6. By means of the above structure, the installation of the inverter and the control circuit board is effectively achieved. The inverter can convert direct current of the cells into alternating current and output the alternating current to electronic equipment for use. Furthermore, the heat dissipation sheets can dissipate the heat generated by the inverter during operation, so as to reduce the operating temperature of the inverter and improve the operating stability of the inverter. Further, the heat dissipation fan can be used for dissipating heat of the cells and dissipating heat of the control circuit board and the inverter.

The stability and the safety are high. Moreover, the shoulder and the arm of the user simultaneously bear the load, so that the strength of the body can be fully mobilized, and it is labor-saving. The phenomenon of partial muscle ache can be effectively prevented, and the user can carry the energy storage power supply for a long time. Further, when the user needs to free up hands for other work, the energy storage power supply can be slung across the body through the strap to prevent slipping off.

For example, when the user needs to carry the energy storage power supply, the first hanging buckle of the strap can be connected to the first hanging buckle, and the second hanging buckle of the strap is connected to the second hanging opening, so as to form the hanging space for hanging by the user between the strap and the handle, and the user can sling the energy storage power supply over the shoulder through the hanging space, or sling the energy storage power supply across the body; when the user needs to store the energy storage power supply, the first hanging buckle of the strap can be separated from the first hanging opening, and the second hanging buckle of the strap can be separated from the second hanging opening, so as to separate the strap from the handle; and the energy storage power supply and the strap are respectively stored. The first hanging opening and the second hanging opening are respectively arranged at two ends of the handle, so that when the user slings the energy storage power supply over the shoulder with the strap, the user enclasps the handle under the help of the arm, so as to fix the position of the energy storage power supply, prevent the energy storage power supply from swinging during movement of the user, and avoid the energy storage power supply from sliding off from the shoulder of the user.
In this embodiment, an adjustment device is further arranged on the strap to adjust the length of the strap.
