Battery cell holder, battery module, battery and electrical apparatus
View Patent ↗The present application discloses a battery cell holder, a battery module, a battery, and an electrical apparatus. The battery cell holder includes: a holder body and an insulating member. The holder body is provided with at least one first channel in a first direction, and the insulating member is arranged on an outer surface of the holder body. The insulating member covers part or all of the outer surface, and the surface of the insulating member facing away from the holder body is capable of fixing a battery cell. By providing the holder body with the first channel, and fixing the battery cell to the holder body on the peripheral side of the first channel, after the battery cell radiates heat, the heat flows out through the first channel, so that the temperatures of the battery cell itself and the environment surrounding the battery cell can be reduced, thereby alleviating the battery safety problem caused by the accumulation of heat during the use of the battery.

8. The battery cell holder according to claim 6 , wherein
the two ends of the connecting portion in the first direction are respectively provided with a first snap-fit portion, the first insulating strip is provided with a second snap-fit portion, the second insulating strip is provided with a third snap-fit portion, and the second snap-fit portion and the third snap-fit portion are respectively snap-fitted with the first snap-fit portions at the two ends of the connecting portion.
9. The battery cell holder according to claim 8 , wherein
the first snap-fit portions are snap-fit through holes; and
the second snap-fit portion and the third snap-fit portion are both snap-fit posts, and a free end of each snap-fit post is provided with a hooking portion.
10. The battery cell holder according to claim 9 , wherein
the free end of each snap-fit post is provided with a notch to form a first sub-end and a second sub-end opposite each other, a first sub-hooking portion and a second sub-hooking portion respectively protrude from the surfaces of the first sub-end and the second sub-end facing away from each other, and when the snap-fit post extends into a respective snap-fit through hole, the first sub-hooking portion and the second sub-hooking portion are exposed and respectively hooked to an outer edge of the snap-fit through hole.
11. The battery cell holder according to claim 8 , wherein
a first snap-fit post of the second snap-fit portion extends into an opening of the first snap-fit through hole on the first end face side and out of an opening on the other side of the first snap-fit through hole, and a first hooking portion on the first snap-fit post of the second snap-fit portion extends out of the opening on the other side of the first snap-fit through hole and is snap-fitted with the edge at this opening, so as to snap-fit the second snap-fit portion with the first snap-fit through hole on the first end face side.
12. The battery cell holder according to claim 8 , wherein
a second snap-fit post of the third snap-fit portion extends into an opening of the second snap-fit through hole on the second end face side and out of an opening on the other side of the second snap-fit through hole, and a second hooking portion on the second snap-fit post of the third snap-fit portion extends out of the opening on the other side of the second snap-fit through hole and is snap-fitted with the edge at this opening, so as to snap-fit the third snap-fit portion with the second snap-fit through hole on the second end face side.
