  • Publication number: 20230387559
    Abstract: Provided are a battery, a power consuming device, and a method and apparatus for manufacturing a battery, relating to the technical field of battery manufacturing. The present application provides a battery, including: a battery cell; a sampling terminal for acquiring a voltage or a temperature of the battery cell; and a busbar component for being electrically connected to the battery cell, where the busbar component includes a plug-in structure configured for the sampling terminal to be inserted in a first direction to connect with the busbar component, and the plug-in structure is configured for the sampling terminal to be pulled out in a second direction so as to be separated from the busbar component, the first direction intersecting the second direction.

  • Patent number: 11769920
    Abstract: This application relates to the field of battery technologies, and provides a battery module and a manufacturing method thereof. The battery module includes: two or more battery groups, each battery group including two or more battery cells; a module frame, including end plates and side plates, wherein the end plates and the side plates form an accommodating cavity for fixing the battery groups; a middle plate, wherein the middle plate is disposed between two of the battery groups, and is provided with an accommodating groove inside; and a cell management unit, disposed in the accommodating groove of the middle plate and connected to a sampling line of the battery cells. A cell management unit in the accommodating groove inside the middle plate can reduce the chance from failing under swelling pressure of the battery cells.

  • Patent number: 11476533
    Abstract: This application relates to a battery module, including: battery cells arranged sequentially; an end plate that includes a first end sub-plate and a second end sub-plate, where the first end sub-plate and the second end sub-plate are arranged in a length direction of the battery module, the second end sub-plate is closer to the battery cells than the first end sub-plate, and a buffer spacing is formed between the first end sub-plate and the second end sub-plate; and a cell management unit that is disposed on a side of the first end sub-plate facing away from the second end sub-plate. The buffer spacing disposed between the first end sub-plate and the second end sub-plate can effectively reduce or even avoid deformation of the first end sub-plate under an expansion force generated by the battery cells, thereby protecting the cell management unit from a failure caused by the external force.
