In this embodiment, when fixing bolt 5 screws at screw hole 35, the cooperation of the lobe form structure 341 of accessible fixing bolt 5's first end and fixed foot 34, impel lobe form structure 341 elastic expansion, realize the drill way edge butt of lobe form structure 341 lateral wall and spacing hole 12, and when unscrewing fixing bolt 5, the lobe form structure 341 can restore the original form and be convenient for take out from spacing hole 12 of fixed foot 34, thereby realize insulating base 3 can dismantle on fixed end plate 1 and connect, so not only improved insulating base 3 fixed efficiency on fixed end plate 1, can also dismantle insulating base 3 and be connected of fixed end plate 1 when the inefficacy is connected to follow-up insulating base 3, avoid causing the scrapping of fixed end plate 1. In addition, because the insulating base 3 is detachably connected with the fixed end plate 1, and the metal switching piece 4 is detachably limited on the fixed surface 32 of the insulating base 3, so that the assembly tolerance required by the detachable mode is combined, the assembly tolerance of the metal switching piece 4 in the height direction of the battery module 10 is conveniently counteracted, the stability of the electrical connection of the metal switching piece 4 is ensured, and the electrical performance of the battery module 10 is further ensured.
The limiting hole 12 is a through hole, so that at least part of the petal-shaped structure 341 can extend out of the limiting hole 12, and the limiting hole 12 can be a cylindrical through hole, a prismatic through hole, a circular truncated cone through hole or the like, so long as the limiting hole can form a limit with the outer side wall of the petal-shaped structure 341 after the petal-shaped structure 341 expands. The outer side wall of the first positioning convex part 33 of the insulating base 3 is in clearance contact with the groove wall of the mounting groove 11, so that the stability of limiting the insulating base 3 and the fixed end plate 1 after the first positioning convex part 33 is inserted into the mounting groove 11 is ensured. Further, as shown in fig. 3, the insulating base 3 further has two baffles 37 located on the fixing surface 32, and the two baffles 37 are disposed opposite to each other in the width direction of the battery module 10. The electric climbing distance of the position of the metal switching piece 4 can be increased through the arrangement of the baffle 37, so that the safety of the electric connection of the metal switching piece is improved.
The metal switching pieces 4 may include a first metal switching piece and a second metal switching piece, where the first metal switching piece may be an output electrode switching piece (such as an output electrode aluminum bar) of the battery module 10, the second metal switching piece may be an output switching piece (such as an output copper bar) of the battery module 10, and the first metal switching piece may be located between the second metal switching piece and the fixing surface 32 of the insulating base 3, or the second metal switching piece may be located between the first metal switching piece and the fixing surface 32 of the insulating base 3.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 5, the end edges of the fixing legs 34 facing away from the supporting surface 31 of the insulating base 3 are rounded. Therefore, when the insulating base 3 is assembled in the mounting groove 11 on the fixed end plate 1, the guiding function of the fixed pin 34 relative to the limiting hole 12 can be conveniently realized based on the arc chamfer design of the end part of the fixed pin 34, and the insulating base 3 is conveniently assembled on the fixed end plate 1.
In this embodiment, when the first end of the fixing bolt 5 urges the petal-shaped structure 341 of the fixing leg 34 to elastically expand in the insertion hole 36, as shown in fig. 6, the cross-sectional area of the inner cavity 342 of the petal-shaped structure 341 perpendicular to the height direction of the battery module 10 decreases in a direction away from the supporting surface 31, or as shown in fig. 7, the cross-sectional area of the inner cavity 342 of the petal-shaped structure 341 perpendicular to the height direction of the battery module 10 decreases and increases in a direction away from the supporting surface 31. In this way, the first end of the fixing bolt 5 can promote the outward expansion of the petal-shaped structure 341 at the minimum section of the inner cavity 342 of the petal-shaped structure 341, and further abuts against the orifice edge of the limiting hole 12, so that the insulating base 3 is fixed on the fixing end plate 1.
Taking a circular cross section of the inner cavity 342 of the petal-shaped structure 341 perpendicular to the height direction of the battery module 10 as an example, the cross section diameter of the inner cavity 342 decreases in a direction away from the supporting surface 31, or the cross section diameter of the inner cavity 342 decreases first and then increases in a direction away from the supporting surface 31.
Wherein, the lobe structure 341 of the fixing leg 34 includes a plurality of lobe teeth spaced apart along the circumference of the fixing leg 34, when the first end of the fixing bolt 5 extends into the lobe structure 341 of the fixing leg 34, the first end of the fixing bolt 5 causes the plurality of lobe teeth to expand radially outwards to abut against the orifice edge of the limiting hole 12 through the outer side wall of the lobe teeth.
While the first end of the fixing bolt 5 causes the lobe structure 341 of the fixing leg 34 to expand outwardly, the first end of the fixing bolt 5 may have a through-diameter structure, or, of course, may have a conical structure 53 as shown in fig. 3. Compared with the first end of the fixing bolt 5 having the through diameter structure, when the first end of the fixing bolt 5 has the conical structure 53, the first end of the fixing bolt 5 is convenient to extend into the petal-shaped structure 341 of the fixing leg 34, and friction between the first end of the fixing bolt 5 and the inner wall of the petal-shaped structure 341 can be reduced.
Wherein, for the first end of the fixing bolt 5 is a conical structure 53, in order to ensure that the first end of the fixing bolt 5 extends into the petal-shaped structure 341 along the insertion hole 36, the petal-shaped structure 341 can be promoted to expand outwards. Taking a circular cross section of the inner cavity 342 of the petal-shaped structure 341 perpendicular to the height direction of the battery module 10 as an example, the minimum cross-sectional diameter of the inner cavity 342 of the petal-shaped structure 341 is smaller than the maximum outer diameter of the conical structure 53.
For example, the conical structure 53 is provided with a maximum outer diameter D1, the lumen 342 of the petal-like structure 341 has a maximum cross-sectional diameter D2, and the lumen 342 has a minimum cross-sectional diameter D3, where D2 > D1, and D1 > D3. In this manner, it is ensured that the first end of the fixing bolt 5 can extend into the cavity of the petal 341 and cause the petal 341 to expand outwardly.
Further, D3 is more than or equal to 1/3D2 is more than or equal to 1/2D2, D2-D1 is more than or equal to 0.5mm and less than or equal to 1.5mm. Wherein, the relationship between the maximum cross-sectional diameter and the minimum cross-sectional diameter of the cavity 342 of the petal-shaped structure 341 is limited, so that the thicker wall thickness of the fixing leg 34 at the minimum cross-section is avoided, the expansion difficulty of the petal-shaped structure 341 is increased, and the situation that the thinner wall thickness of the fixing leg 34 at the minimum cross-section cannot be effectively abutted with the orifice edge of the insertion hole 36 after the petal-shaped structure 341 is expanded is avoided; in addition, the difference between the maximum outer diameter D1 of the conical structure 53 and the maximum cross-sectional diameter D2 of the interior cavity 342 of the lobed structure 341 is defined to ensure that the first end of the anchor bolt 5 is able to slide normally within the receptacle 36 while ensuring that the conical structure 53 of the first end of the anchor bolt 5 is able to effectively cause the lobed structure 341 to expand.
In the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 8, the fixing bolt 5 includes a bolt body 51 and a stopper pin 52, and the bolt body 51 and the stopper pin 52 may be of an integral structure, or of course, may be of a split structure.
When the bolt body 51 and the limiting pin 52 are of an integrated structure, the assembly and the taking-out of the limiting pin 52 in the jack 36 can be realized along with the screwing-in or screwing-out of the bolt body 51 in the threaded hole 35, so that the insulation base 3 and the fixed end plate 1 can be detached, and the situation that the limiting pin 52 is taken out independently is avoided.
