However, the battery module in the image capturing device is usually pressed by the pressing plate, and the pressing plate is locked to the image capturing device by a plurality of screws. At this moment, when this kind of mode is adopted to fix battery module, can make to carry out the dismouting in-process to battery module, need all screw or the comparatively loaded down with trivial details operation of unscrewing to each screw after uncapping camera device, lead to the comparatively inconvenience of dismouting to battery module. Furthermore, the provision of the pressing plate and the plurality of screws also makes the fixing structure of the battery module complicated, resulting in an increase in the manufacturing cost of the image pickup apparatus.

Therefore, in order to solve the defects of the related art that the camera device is inconvenient to disassemble and assemble the battery module and the fixing structure of the battery module is complicated, please refer to fig. 1 to 11, the present invention provides a camera device 100, and in an embodiment of the present invention, the camera device 100 includes a body 10, a camera 30 and a battery module 50. The camera 30 is arranged on the machine body 10; the battery module 50 includes a battery compartment 51, a battery module 53 and a connecting structure 55, the battery compartment 51 is disposed in the machine body 10, the battery module 53 is disposed in the battery compartment 51 and electrically connected to the camera 30, and the connecting structure 55 includes a first clamping portion 551 and an elastic arm 552; the first clamping portion 551 is disposed on one of the battery compartment 51 and the battery module 53, and the elastic arm 552 is disposed on the other of the first clamping portion 551 and the battery module 53; the elastic arm 552 is provided with a second clamping portion 553, and the second clamping portion 553 is clamped with the first clamping portion 551, so that the battery module 53 is limited and fixed on the battery compartment 51; and when the elastic arm 552 is under an external force, the elastic arm 552 can drive the second clamping portion 553 and the first clamping portion 551 to separate.

The imaging device 100 described above is also a device that can be used to capture an image of the surrounding environment to monitor the surrounding environment. Specifically, the images in the surrounding environment can be captured by the camera 30 in the image capturing device 100 and further stored in the image capturing device 100, or directly transmitted to a display terminal (e.g., a mobile phone, a computer, a display, etc.) electrically connected to the image capturing device 100. The camera 30 may be fixedly disposed on the body 10, so that the camera 30 has a fixed monitoring view angle. Of course, the camera 30 may also be movably disposed on the body 10, so that the camera 30 can be moved to enlarge the monitoring view angle. In addition, the camera 30 may be directly disposed on the outer surface of the body 10, or may be partially or completely embedded in the body 10, but at this time, it is ensured that the shooting end of the camera 30 can be exposed to the outside through the through hole or the transparent sheet. Further, the body 10 may serve as a main body bearing structure of the camera device 100 to provide a mounting position for a setting head, the battery module 50 or other components in the camera device 100, so as to facilitate assembling the components in the camera device 100 into a whole. The machine body 10 may be a box structure. In this case, the body 10 may be substantially rectangular or square, so that the shape is regular and the body can be easily formed. Of course, the body 10 may also be cylindrical or have other shapes. Alternatively, the machine body 10 may also be a plate structure, or a frame structure formed by enclosing a plurality of columns. In short, the structural shape of the machine body 10 is not particularly limited, and the machine body can be used for mounting and carrying the camera 30, the battery module 53 and the like. The battery compartment 51 of the battery module 50 may be used to provide a receiving position for the battery module 53, so as to accurately mount the battery module 53 at a predetermined mounting position. Meanwhile, the battery compartment 51 can also isolate the battery module 53 from other components of the image capturing device 100 disposed on the machine body 10, so that the battery compartment 51 can isolate and protect the battery module 53. The battery compartment 51 may be a box structure with an opening at one end. And the shape of the battery compartment 51 may be adaptively set according to the modules of the battery module 53, for example: when the battery module 53 is a semi-cylinder structure, the battery compartment 51 can be correspondingly set to be a semi-cylinder structure; when the battery module 53 is configured in a square structure, the battery compartment 51 may be correspondingly configured in a square structure. It should be noted that the battery compartment 51 may be integrally provided with the machine body 10, or may be provided separately from the machine body 10. The battery module 53 may be used to store electric power, and may supply power to other electric devices such as the camera 30 of the image pickup apparatus 100 when the battery module 50 is installed in the image pickup apparatus 100. Specifically, the battery module 53 may include a battery housing 531, a battery cell 532, and a protection circuit 533, where the battery cell 532 and the protection circuit 533 are disposed in the battery housing 531, and the battery cell 532 and the protection circuit 533 are electrically connected to control discharging through the protection circuit 533. At this time, the protection circuit 533 of the battery module 53 may be electrically connected to an electric device such as the camera 30 of the image pickup apparatus 100, so that the battery module 53 supplies power to the electric device such as the camera 30 of the image pickup apparatus 100. In addition, the battery module 53 may be a rechargeable battery to facilitate recycling of the battery module 53. At this time, the battery module 53 may further be provided with a charging interface electrically connected to the protection circuit 533, so that the battery module 53 may be charged through the charging interface after the power in the battery module 53 is used up. The first clamping portion 551 of the connecting structure 55 can be used for providing a clamping position, and the second clamping portion 553 of the elastic arm 552 can also be used for providing a clamping position, so that the battery module 53 is limited and fixed on the battery compartment 51 by clamping between the first clamping portion 551 and the second clamping portion 553. The spring arm 552 is a deformable member, which may be a metal sheet, but may also be a plastic sheet, etc. When the elastic deformation occurs, the second clamping portion 553 and the first clamping portion 551 can be driven to separate. Therefore, when the battery module 53 needs to be taken down, the user can unlock the battery module 53 by directly shifting the elastic arm 552 to make it elastically deformed to drive the second clamping portion 553 to be away from the first clamping portion 551, so as to take the battery module 53 down from the battery compartment 51. It should be noted that, when the battery module 53 is installed in the battery compartment 51, the elastic arm 552 is automatically elastically deformed by being pressed during the installation process, so as to drive the second clamping portion 553 of the elastic arm 552 to be clamped to the first clamping portion 551 after the battery module 53 is installed in place. Of course, the user may manually actuate the elastic arm 552 to deform while installing the battery module 53 in the battery compartment 51. After the battery module 53 is mounted in place, the acting force on the elastic arm 552 is canceled, and the elastic arm 552 can be reset under the action of the deformation elastic force to drive the second clamping portion 553 to be clamped in the first clamping portion 551. In addition, it should be noted that the first clamping portion 551 and the second clamping portion 553 may be in a form of clamping hooks and hooks, or in a form of clamping hooks and clamping holes, and the specific structural forms of the first clamping portion 551 and the second clamping portion 553 are not limited in the present application. In addition, the image capturing apparatus 100 may include only one battery compartment 51, one battery module 53, and one connection structure 55 to perform power supply operation by one battery module 53. Of course, in order to improve the monitoring operation time of the image capturing apparatus 100, the image capturing apparatus 100 may also include at least two battery compartments 51, at least two battery modules 53, and at least two connecting structures 55. At this time, at least two battery compartments 51 may be arranged side by side on the machine body 10, so that the distribution is compact and the occupied space is reduced. While one battery module 53 may be disposed within one battery compartment 51, one connection structure 55 may be used to secure one battery module 53 within one battery compartment 51. In addition, at least two battery compartments 51 may be integrated, so that the installation of a plurality of battery compartments 51 may be completed at one time to improve the convenience of installation thereof. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto, and each battery compartment 51 may be provided separately, so that one of the battery compartments may be repaired or replaced only by a damaged person after the damaged one of the battery compartments is damaged. And at least two battery modules 53 may sequentially supply power to the image capturing apparatus 100 according to a preset power supply sequence. For example: a voltage sensor that detects the voltage of each battery module 53 may be provided in the image pickup apparatus 100 when each voltage sensor detects that each battery module 53 is greater than a preset voltage value. That is, each battery module 53 has a higher power, and the image capturing apparatus 100 can control each battery module 53 to sequentially perform power supply operation according to a preset sequence. Therefore, the present application does not specifically limit the number of battery modules 53 in the imaging apparatus 100, and the battery modules can be disposed adaptively as needed. In addition, referring to fig. 2 to fig. 4, when two battery compartments 51, two battery modules 53 and two connecting structures 55 are provided, or one battery module 53 is fixed by two connecting structures 55, the elastic arms 552 in the two connecting structures 55 may be disposed oppositely. The operation position can be raised by the two elastic arms 552 in this way, so that the user can conveniently press the two elastic arms 552 with one hand, and the convenience of detaching and taking down the battery module 53 can be improved.

The camera device 100 according to the technical solution of the present invention is provided with the battery module 50, so that the camera device 100 can supply power to the camera 30 through the battery module 53 in the battery module 50. Therefore, the surrounding environment to which the image pickup apparatus 100 in the present embodiment is applied does not need to be equipped with a line body and an external power supply, and the use scene to which the image pickup apparatus 100 can be applied is improved.

In addition, when the camera device 100 of the present invention is used, when the battery module 53 needs to be assembled in the battery compartment 51, the second clamping portion 553 of the elastic arm 552 in the connection structure 55 is driven to be clamped in the first clamping portion 551, so that the battery module 53 can be fixed in the battery compartment 51 in a limited manner. When the battery module 53 needs to be detached from the battery compartment 51, the elastic arm 552 can be directly driven to be elastically deformed, so that the second clamping portion 553 is separated from the first clamping portion 551, the battery module 53 can be unlocked, and the battery module can be rapidly detached from the battery compartment 51. At this time, since the second clamping portion 553 of the elastic arm 552 is clamped to the first clamping portion 551, and the elastic arm 552 is driven to be elastically deformed to separate the second clamping portion 553 from the first clamping portion 551, the operation is simple, thereby facilitating the improvement of the convenience of the disassembly and assembly of the battery module 53. Meanwhile, the connecting structure 55 only includes the first clamping portion 551 and the elastic arm 552, and when in use, the elastic arm 552 provides a clamping elastic force and an operating position for a user to perform an unlocking operation. So compare in battery module among the prior art and adopt a great deal of structures such as jack, inserted block and spring to fix the mode for respectively need provide joint elasticity through the spring, provide the operation position through the inserted block and supply the user to carry out the unblock operation, directly in this scheme through elastic arm 552 a spare part can, just also make this connection structure 55's spare part very few. Therefore, the arrangement of the connection structure 55 composed of the first clamping portion 551 and the elastic arm 552 in the image capturing apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment improves the convenience of assembling and disassembling the battery module 53, and simplifies the fixing structure of the battery module 53, thereby facilitating the reduction of the manufacturing cost of the image capturing apparatus 100.

When the battery module 53 is taken down from the opening of the battery compartment 51, the user can hold the battery module 53 and press the elastic arm 552 to elastically deform the elastic arm to drive the second clamping portion 553 to move away from the first clamping portion 551. That is, the user can unlock and remove the battery module 53 only by one-handed operation, thereby contributing to further improvement in convenience in detachment of the battery module 53. It should be noted that, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the first fastening portion 551 may also be disposed on the battery module 53, and the corresponding elastic arm 552 may be disposed on an inner sidewall of the battery compartment 51.

When the acting force on the elastic arm 552 is removed, the elastic arm 552 can be reset under the action of the deformation elastic force, and the second clamping portion 553 is driven to approach the first clamping portion 551 and is clamped with the first clamping portion 551. Therefore, the guide surface 554 may be provided only on the first clip portion 551, the guide surface 554 may be provided only on the second clip portion 553, or the guide surfaces 554 may be provided on both the first clip portion 551 and the second clip portion 553.

In the present embodiment, due to the provision of the guide surface 554, the elastic arm 552 can be automatically elastically deformed under the pressing guide of the guide surface 554 during the process of mounting the battery module 53 in the battery compartment 51 from the opening of the battery compartment 51. Therefore, the battery module 53 can be smoothly inserted and installed in place without pressing the elastic arm 552 by a user in the inserting and installing process to elastically deform the elastic arm 552, so that convenience in assembling the battery module 53 is further improved. Of course, it should be noted that, when the guide surface 554 is not provided, the user can press the elastic arm 552 to elastically deform while inserting and installing the battery module 53, so as to ensure that the battery module 53 can be inserted and installed in place smoothly.

Referring to fig. 12 to fig. 15, in an embodiment of the invention, a partial area of the elastic arm 552 protrudes toward the first clip portion 551 to form a second clip portion 553.

In the present embodiment, the second clip portion 553 is formed by a partial region of the elastic arm 552 protruding, so that the second clip portion 553 can be directly formed by a partial structure of the elastic arm 552. Therefore, the second clamping portion 553 is not required to be additionally arranged on the elastic arm 552, and meanwhile, the material of the elastic arm 552 can be fully utilized, so that the manufacturing cost is reduced. It should be noted that, of course, the application is not limited to this, and in other embodiments, a bump may be directly welded on the elastic arm 552 to form the second clamping portion 553.

Among other things, the fixing plate 555 may be used to provide a connection site for fixedly connecting with the battery modules 53. Specifically, the battery case 531 of the battery module 53 is fixedly connected to realize the installation and fixation of the elastic arm 552 on the battery module 53. The deformation plate 556 can be configured to elastically deform when an external force is applied. That is, an end of the deformation plate 556 far from the fixing plate 555 may be used to provide an operation position for a user to press the deformation plate to apply an acting force to drive the elastic arm 552 to be elastically deformed. And deformation board 556 and fixed plate 555 enclose to close and are formed with the contained angle that sets up back to battery module 53, that is to say, when fixed plate 555 sets up along upper and lower direction extension, this deformation board 556 can be upwards to the one side slope of keeping away from battery module 53 and set up to can have the interval between the lateral wall that makes this deformation board 556 and battery module 53, thereby conveniently drives about it and takes place elastic deformation after pressing deformation board 556.

In this embodiment, the elastic arm 552 can be better attached to the battery module 53 through the fixing plate 555, thereby facilitating the convenience of mounting the elastic arm 552 on the battery module 53. Meanwhile, the stability of connection can be enhanced by the fixing plate 555 and the battery module 53 having a larger contact area, so as to improve the stability of the fixing of the elastic arm 552 on the battery module 53. And deformation board 556 and fixed plate 555 are the contained angle setting, make it have the form structure that is the contained angle and have better elasticity, and then conveniently order about elastic arm 552 to take place corresponding elastic deformation after the user presses the operation to it.

It should be noted that, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the elastic arm 552 may also be a linear plate structure, and at this time, a sufficient movement space may be provided at a position of the battery module 53 corresponding to the upper end of the elastic arm 552, so that the upper end of the elastic arm 552 moves under the action of an external force.

Further, please refer to fig. 10, fig. 12, and fig. 15 to fig. 17 in combination, the deformation plate 556 includes a first plate 557, a second plate 558, and a third plate 559, one end of the first plate 557 is connected to the fixing plate 555, and encloses an included angle with the fixing plate 555, the included angle being disposed back to the battery module 53, one end of the first plate 557 away from the fixing plate 555 extends to the opening of the battery compartment 51, and the second clamping portion 553 is disposed on the first plate 557; one end of the second plate 558 is connected to the first plate 557 extending to the opening of the battery compartment 51, and the other end is extended in a direction away from the battery module 53; one end of the third plate 559 is connected to the end of the second plate 558 far away from the first plate 557, and the other end extends along the direction from the end of the battery compartment 51 far away from the opening to the end close to the opening.

In a direction from an end of the battery compartment 51 far from the opening to an end close to the opening, the first plate 557, the second plate 558, and the third plate 559 are distributed in sequence, and may form a substantially Z-shaped structure. That is, when the fixing plate 555 is extended in the vertical direction, the first plate 557 may be inclined upward to a side away from the battery module 53; the second plate 558 may be disposed horizontally or obliquely, and is extended toward a movement away from the battery module 53; the third plate 559 may be extended in the vertical direction like the fixing plate 555.

In this embodiment, the deformation plate 556 is configured to be substantially Z-shaped, so that the deformation plate 556, the battery module 53 and the mounting carrier can be distributed very compactly at the end far away from the fixing plate 555, so as to reduce the overall size of the battery module 50, thereby improving the convenience of subsequent installation of the limited installation space of the battery module on the electronic device. Moreover, the deformation plate 556 can also provide an operation position through the third plate body 559, so that a user can press the elastic arm 552 conveniently to drive the elastic deformation of the actuator. It should be noted that, the application is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the deformation plate 556 may only include the first plate body 557, and an end of the first plate body 557 far away from the fixing plate 555 may extend out of the opening of the battery compartment 51.

Further, referring to fig. 8 to 10, a notch 513 is concavely formed on the surface of the battery compartment 51, on which the opening is formed, at a position corresponding to the elastic arm 552, the notch 513 communicates with the inner space of the battery compartment 51, and a portion of the second plate 558 and the third plate 559 are accommodated in the notch 513.

The notch 513 is a structure in which a partial region of the surface of the battery compartment 51 surrounding the opening where the battery is formed is recessed lower than the other region of the surface of the battery compartment 51 where the opening is formed. Therefore, the notch 513 may penetrate through both the inner side wall and the outer side wall of the battery compartment 51; of course, it may extend only through the inner side wall of the battery compartment 51, that is, communicate only with the inner space of the battery compartment 51. At this time, the notch 513 may be used to accommodate a portion of the second plate 558 close to the third plate 559 and the third plate 559.

In this embodiment, the notch 513 accommodates the portion of the second plate 558 and the third plate 559 of the elastic arm 552, so that the upper end of the elastic arm 552 and the battery compartment 51 can be distributed more compactly, thereby facilitating to further reduce the overall size of the battery module 50, and facilitating to mount the battery module 50 in the limited mounting space on the machine body 10.

And at least a portion of the third plate body 559 has a width greater than that of the fixing plate 555, it means that the third plate body 559 may be a uniform-width plate body, and the width of the third plate body 559 is greater than that of the fixing plate 555. Certainly, the third board body 559 is a combined board body formed by two sub-board bodies with different widths, and at this time, the width of the sub-board body far from the second board body 558 in the third board body 559 may be greater than the width of the fixing plate 555, so that a user may press a portion with a larger width in the third board body 559 to apply an acting force.

In this embodiment, the widths of the first plate 557 and the second plate 558 are set to be equal, so that the shapes of the first plate 557 and the second plate 558 are relatively regular, and the first plate 557 and the second plate 558 can be conveniently formed. The first plate 557 and the second plate 558 are smaller than the fixing plate 555 in width, so that the connection strength between the second plate 558 and the fixing plate 555 is relatively weak, and elastic deformation can be easily generated. Meanwhile, the contact area between the fixing plate 555 and the battery module 53 may be increased by the fixing plate 555 having a large width, thereby improving the stability of the connection of the elastic arm 552 on the battery module 53. Further, the first plate 557, the second plate 558 and the third plate 559 may be integrally configured, so as to improve the overall strength of the deformable plate 556 and prolong the service life. Therefore, in order to further enhance the strength of the elastic arm 552, the deformable plate 556 formed by the first plate 557, the second plate 558 and the third plate 559 may be integrally formed with the fixing plate 555. Meanwhile, the elastic arm 552 can be manufactured by integral molding, which is beneficial to improving the convenience of manufacturing the elastic arm 552.

Referring to fig. 13 and 14, in an embodiment of the invention, the battery module 53 is recessed to form an avoiding space 535 at a position corresponding to the deformation plate 556.

The avoiding space 535, that is, the battery module 53 is partially recessed at a position corresponding to the deformation plate 556, so that the battery module 53 has a space between the deformation plate 556 and the avoiding space 53, so that the deformation plate 556 has a movement space when being pressed.

In this embodiment, the avoiding space 535 can provide better avoidance for the movement of the deformation plate 556 when the deformation plate 556 is acted by external force, that is, when the deformation plate 556 is pressed. The lack of the movement space after the elastic arm 552 is pressed is avoided, so that the second clamping portion 553 on the elastic arm 552 cannot be dislocated with the first clamping portion 551 or cannot be separated from the first clamping portion 551, and the battery module 53 cannot be inserted in the battery compartment 51 and then unlocked. Meanwhile, due to the arrangement of the avoiding space 535, the pressing movement of the deformation plate 556 can be avoided, so that the elastic arm 552 and the battery module 53 can be mounted more compactly, and the overall size of the battery module 50 can be further reduced.

Referring to fig. 12 and 13, in an embodiment of the invention, the battery module 53 is provided with a positioning groove 536, and the fixing plate 555 is installed in the positioning groove 536.

The shape of the positioning slot 536 can be matched with the shape of the fixing plate 555, for example: the fixing plate 555 is a square body, and the positioning groove 536 may be a square groove body. At this point, the positioning slot 536 can be used to position and mount the fixing plate 555, and then to abut and limit the position after the mounting is completed.

In this embodiment, due to the positioning groove 536, the fixing plate 555532 can be positioned by the positioning groove 536, so that the fixing plate 555 can be accurately installed at a preset installation position. Simultaneously, the cell wall through constant head tank 536 is spacing to fixed plate 555 butt, also can improve the stability of this fixed plate 555 installation.

Referring to fig. 10 and 12-14, in an embodiment of the present invention, the fixing plate 555 is connected to the battery modules 53 by screws 59.

The screw 59 may only include screws, and at this time, the screws are directly and sequentially inserted through the fixing plate 555 and the battery case 531 of the battery module 53. Of course, the screw 59 may also be a combination of a nut 591 and a bolt 593, in this case, the nut 591 may be connected to the fixing plate 555 in a fixing manner such as riveting or welding, and after the nut 591 is passed through the battery housing 531 of the battery module 53, the fixing plate 555 may be locked to the battery module 53 by inserting a bolt 593.

In this embodiment, the fixing plate 555 is fixedly installed by the screw 59, and the screw 59 has the advantage of reliability and stability, so as to be beneficial to ensuring the stability of the elastic arm 552 fixed on the battery module 53. At the same time, the fixing of the spring arm 552 on the battery module 53 can also be made relatively simple. Of course, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the fixing plate 555 may be fixed on the battery module 53 by a snap-fit fixing or an adhesive fixing.

Referring to fig. 7 to 11 and 18 to 20, in an embodiment of the present invention, a position-limiting rod 514 is disposed in the battery compartment 51, an extending direction of the position-limiting rod 514 is perpendicular to a direction from a wall surface of the battery compartment 51 facing the opening of the battery compartment to the opening of the battery compartment 51 (i.e., a direction from bottom to top as illustrated in fig. 10, that is, the position-limiting rod 514 can be said to extend along a horizontal direction), and the position-limiting rod 514 is formed as a first engaging portion 551; when the battery module 53 is installed in the battery compartment 51, the second clamping portion 553 is clamped to a side of the limiting rod 514, which is away from the opening of the battery compartment 51.

The limiting rod 514 may be formed in an elongated shape, and extend along the width direction of the first plate 557, the second plate 558, the third plate 559, and the fixing plate 555 of the elastic arm 552, and the cross section of the limiting rod 514 may be a circle, a rectangle, a square, or any other shape. The second clamping portion 553 is clamped at a side of the limiting rod 514 departing from the opening of the battery compartment 51, that is, if the opening of the battery compartment 51 is disposed upward, the second clamping portion 553 can be clamped at the bottom of the limiting rod 514, and the battery module 53 can be prevented from being separated from the opening of the battery compartment 51 by the abutting stop of the limiting rod 514 against the second clamping portion 553. Therefore, the stopper rod 514 may abut and limit the second engaging portion 553, and a cross section of the stopper rod 514 in a cross section perpendicular to an extending direction may have various shapes such as a square shape or a circular shape. Of course, the stop rod 514 may be a cylindrical rod in order to facilitate the formation of the guide surface 554 on the stop rod 514 and to facilitate the machining of the stop rod 514.

In the embodiment, the first engaging portion 551 is formed by the limiting rod 514, and the limiting rod 514 is directly a linear segment, so that the structure of the limiting rod 514 is more regular and simpler and is more convenient to machine and form than the structure of the hook type and the structure of the engaging hole type, thereby further simplifying the structure of the connecting structure 55, improving the convenience of manufacturing the connecting structure and reducing the manufacturing cost. Moreover, at this time, the second clamping portion 553 only needs to abut against one side of the limiting rod 514 in the vertical direction, and the second clamping can be abutted and stopped through the limiting rod 514, so that the clamping relation between the second clamping portion 553 and the first clamping portion 551 is very simple, and convenience of the battery module 50 is further improved. It should be noted that, the present application is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the first clamping portion 551 may also be a hook-type structure or a clamping hole-type structure.

Further, please refer to fig. 19 and fig. 20 in combination, an inner sidewall of the battery compartment 51 is recessed to form a containing groove 516, and the containing groove 516 further penetrates through a surface of the battery compartment 51 where an opening of the battery compartment 51 is formed; two groove walls opposite to the containing groove 516 are provided with mounting holes 517, and two opposite ends of the limiting rod 514 are respectively inserted into the two mounting holes 517.

The accommodating groove 516 may be formed by partially recessing a sidewall of the battery compartment 51, and an opening of the battery compartment 51 is formed through the battery compartment 51. When the notch 513 is formed in the battery compartment 51, the accommodating groove 516 may penetrate through the bottom wall of the notch 513. The accommodating groove 516 can be used for installing the limiting rod 514, so that the limiting rod 514 is more compactly distributed on the battery compartment 51, and the installation space for accommodating the battery module 53 in the battery compartment 51 is not occupied. Meanwhile, the accommodating groove 516 can also accommodate the first plate 557 and the second clamping portion 553 in the deformation plate 556 of the elastic arm 552.

In this embodiment, the accommodating space provided by the accommodating groove 516 allows the limiting rod 514, the elastic arm 552 and the second clamping portion 553 to be distributed more compactly, so as to make the installation between the battery module 53 and the installation carrier more compact, thereby further reducing the overall size of the battery module 50. The limiting rod 514 is fixed by inserting into the mounting hole 517, so that the limiting rod 514 and the battery compartment 51 can be arranged separately. That is, the two can be separately manufactured and then assembled together by insertion. When the battery compartment 51 and the limiting rod 514 are detached, the respective structures can be simpler than an integral structure, so that the convenience of processing and molding the battery compartment 51 and the limiting rod 514 is improved. Of course, in other embodiments, the first engaging portion 551 can also be formed by integrally forming the limiting rod 514 or the hook structure on the battery compartment 51.

Further, referring to fig. 19 to 21, two mounting holes 517 penetrate through the outer side wall of the battery compartment 51, and one end of the limiting rod 514 is further provided with an interference portion 515, so that the limiting rod 514 is fixed to the battery compartment 51 when inserted into the mounting holes 517.

The two mounting holes 517 penetrate through the outer side wall of the battery compartment 51, that is, one end of the mounting hole 517, which is far away from the accommodating groove 516, is exposed on the outer surface of the battery compartment 51, so that the limiting rod 514 can be inserted and installed from the end of the mounting hole 517, which is exposed on the outer surface of the battery compartment 51. And one end of the gag lever post 514 still is equipped with interference portion 515, and when making the gag lever post 514 insert through this end and locate in mounting hole 517, can carry out interference fit with mounting hole 517 to strengthen the stability of gag lever post 514 connection on battery compartment 51, and then avoid breaking away from in mounting hole 517. Specifically, a plurality of ribs may be disposed at one end of the limiting rod 514, and the plurality of ribs may extend along the length direction of the limiting rod 514 and surround the central line of the limiting rod 514. Of course, the ribs may be annular structures and arranged around the center line of the limiting rod 514.
