6. The valve according to claim 4 , wherein the mounting member is provided with an exhaust port independent of the medium injection port; and
when the closing member opens the pressure relief port and the medium injection port, the gas can be exhausted out of the box body through the outlet and the exhaust port in sequence.
7. The valve according to claim 6 , wherein the mounting member comprises:
a pipe, the medium injection port being provided in the pipe, and the pipe configured to be connected to the body;
a ring sleeved on the pipe; and
a connector, the connector connecting the pipe to the ring;
wherein the exhaust port is formed between an inner peripheral wall of the ring and an outer peripheral wall of the pipe.
8. The valve according to claim 3 , wherein the mounting member is in plug-in fit with the body.
9. The valve according to claim 8 , wherein the mounting member is plugged in the body.
10. The valve according to claim 9 , wherein a plurality of support portions are arranged in the body circumferentially at intervals, the support portions being configured for supporting an outer peripheral surface of the mounting member.
11. The valve according to claim 10 , wherein a support portion comprises a support surface and a guide bevel connected to the support surface; and
the guide bevel is configured for guiding the mounting member into the body, so as to make the support surface be in contacted with the outer peripheral surface of the mounting member.
12. The valve according to claim 1 , wherein the fire-fighting device is provided with a butt joint portion, and the medium injection port comprises a plurality of butt joint holes coaxially arranged with different diameters for butting joint with the butt joint portion.
13. The valve according to claim 1 , wherein the valve further comprises:
a fastener connected to the valve body, so as to fix the valve body on the box body.
14. The valve according to claim 13 , wherein the fastener is detachably connected to the valve body, and the fastener is configured for clamping a box body wall of the box body in cooperation with the valve body.
15. A battery, comprising:
a box body;
a battery cell accommodated in the box body; and
the valve according to any one of claim 1 , the valve being mounted on the box body.
16. The battery according to claim 15 , wherein the valve body is provided with a pressure relief port, the closing member closes the pressure relief port, and the closing member is configured to open the pressure relief port and the medium injection port when the pressure or the temperature inside the box body reaches the threshold, so as to relieve the pressure inside the box body.
17. The battery according to claim 16 , wherein the valve body comprises:
a body, the pressure relief port being provided on the body, and the closing member being connected to the body; and
