  • Publication number: 20250070426
    Abstract: A battery cell, a battery, and an electric apparatus are described. A sampling module is connected to a housing and electrically connected to a conductor. At least one conductor is disposed on the housing and electrically connected to an electrode terminal. When status signals from the battery cell are collected, signals from at least one collection point of the sampling module are directly transmitted by the electrode terminal. In this way, the sampling module is integrated on the end cover and at least one conductor is electrically connected to the electrode terminal, which changes the conventional method of transmitting signals to CMC through a flexible circuit board and wiring harness, avoids the transmission of status signals from being affected by factors such as interference coupling and wiring harness short-circuiting, shortens the signal transmission path, and improves the reliability of signal collection by the sampling module.
