Abstract

A battery shell configured to accommodate a plurality of cells and a circuit board. The battery shell includes a first housing and a second housing. The first housing and the second housing form an accommodation cavity configured to accommodate the plurality of cells and the circuit board. The first housing includes a first sidewall and a fixing structure. The fixing structure includes a first fixing portion disposed on the first sidewall and toward the accommodation cavity. The first fixing portion is configured to fix the circuit board. This application further discloses a battery pack with the battery shell.

Claims (22)

1 . A battery shell, configured to accommodate a plurality of cells and a circuit board, wherein the battery shell comprising a first housing and a second housing;

the first housing and the second housing form an accommodation cavity configured to accommodate the plurality of cells and the circuit board; and

the first housing comprises a first sidewall and a first fixing structure, the first fixing structure comprises a first fixing portion disposed on the first sidewall and toward the accommodation cavity, and the first fixing portion is configured to fix the circuit board.

2 . The battery shell according to claim 1 , wherein the first fixing structure comprises a second fixing portion disposed on the first sidewall and toward the accommodation cavity; the first fixing portion, the second fixing portion, and the first sidewall form a first slot, and the first slot is configured to fix the circuit board.

3 . The battery shell according to claim 2 , wherein the first housing comprises a first bottom wall, a first top wall, the first sidewall connects the first bottom wall and the first top wall, and two first end walls connect the first bottom wall, the first top wall, and the first sidewall; and the second housing comprises a second bottom wall, a second top wall, a second sidewall connects the second bottom wall and the second top wall, and two second end walls connect the second bottom wall, the second top wall, and the second sidewall.

4 . The battery shell according to claim 3 , wherein the first sidewall is provided with a first groove configured to accommodate one side of one or more cells, and the second sidewall is provided with a second groove configured to accommodate an opposite side of the one or more cells.

5 . The battery shell according to claim 4 , wherein the first housing comprises a guiding structure disposed on the first sidewall, a side of the first fixing portion farther away from the first sidewall is provided with a guiding surface facing the first slot, and the guiding structure comprises the guiding surface.

6 . The battery shell according to claim 4 , wherein the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion are disposed between the first top wall and the first groove.

7 . The battery shell according to claim 2 , wherein the first fixing structure comprises a plurality of second fixing portions, a gap is formed between the adjacent second fixing portions.

8 . The battery shell according to claim 2 , wherein the first fixing portion is parallel to the second fixing portion.

9 . The battery shell according to claim 2 , wherein the first housing comprises a guiding structure disposed on the first sidewall, the guiding structure comprises a first guiding piece and a second guiding piece, the second guiding piece and the second fixing portion are integrated.

10 . The battery shell according to claim 9 , wherein a tilt angle of a sloping side of the first guiding piece is smaller than a tilt angle of a sloping side of the second guiding piece, and a width of the first guiding piece is greater than that of the second guiding piece.

11 . The battery shell according to claim 1 , wherein the second housing comprises a second fixing structure, the first fixing structure and the second fixing structure form an accommodation structure configured to accommodate and fix the circuit board.

12 . A battery pack, comprising a battery shell, a cell module, and a circuit board, and the cell module is electrically connected to the circuit board, wherein the battery shell is the battery shell according to claim 1 .

13 . The battery pack according to claim 12 , wherein the battery pack comprises a first connecting piece and a second connecting piece, the first connecting piece is connected to tabs of two adjacent cells by welding, and the second connecting piece is welded to the circuit board and is connected to the first connecting piece by welding.

14 .
