BATTERY, BATTERY MODULE, AND ELECTRICALLY POWERED DEVICE
A battery includes a housing, and a beam structure and a group of cells which are arranged in the housing. The beam structure is fixed to the housing, and an accommodating space is formed in the beam structure. An external connecting wire of the group of cells is arranged in the accommodating space.
1 . A battery, comprising:
a housing;
a beam structure arranged in the housing, wherein the beam structure is fixed to the housing, and an accommodating space is formed in the beam structure; and
a group of cells arranged in the housing, wherein an external connecting wire of the group of cells is arranged in the accommodating space.
2 . The battery according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a clamp which is arranged in the accommodating space and which clamps and fixes the external connecting wire in the accommodating space to isolate the external connecting wire from the group of cells.
3 . The battery according to claim 2 , wherein the clamp is made of an insulating material.
4 . The battery according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a heat-conducting component, which is arranged in the accommodating space, and at least a part of which is attached to the external connecting wire and at least another part of which is attached to an inner wall of the beam structure.
5 . The battery according to claim 4 , wherein the heat-conducting component is made of a material that is a good conductor of heat.
6 . The battery according to claim 5 , wherein the accommodating space is formed in a side surface at one end of the beam structure, the side surface being close to a connecting end of the external connecting wire.
7 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the external connecting wire comprises at least one of a high-voltage wire harness, a low-voltage wire harness, and a cell connecting copper bar.
8 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the group of cells is fixed to an inner wall of the housing by means of an adhesive.
9 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the beam structure is of a case-type structure.
10 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the beam structure comprises a cavity, the accommodating space being arranged above the cavity.
11 . The battery according to claim 10 , wherein the cavity is a through hole, and is one of a plurality of cavities arranged in parallel.
12 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the beam structure comprises three vertical walls, and the accommodating space is one of two accommodating spaces formed by the three vertical walls spaced apart from each other.
13 . The battery according to claim 12 , wherein a middle one of the three vertical walls is configured to be higher than two side ones of the three vertical walls.
14 . The battery according to claim 12 , further comprising:
a clamp which is arranged in the accommodating space and which clamps and fixes the external connecting wire in the accommodating space to isolate the external connecting wire from the group of cells, wherein the clamp is connected to one of the middle one of the three vertical walls and the two side ones of the three vertical walls to form at least one of the accommodating spaces located at two sides of the middle one of the three vertical walls.
15 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein:
the group of cells is one of a plurality of groups of cells;
the beam structure is arranged among the plurality of groups of cells; and
at least four groups of cells of the plurality of groups of cells are arranged at one side of the beam structure.
16 . An electrically powered device, comprising:
a device body; and
a power supply, comprising the battery according to claim 1 .
