Abstract

The present application relates to a box, a battery and an electrical apparatus. The box is provided with an accommodating cavity for accommodating a battery cell, and a top surface facing away from the accommodating cavity. The top surface of the box is provided with a first region, a second region and a sealing region between the first region and the second region, the sealing region surrounds the first region, the sealing region is configured to mount a sealing member, the second region is configured with a hanging portion, and the battery is mounted to an external device via the hanging portion such that the sealing member is in contact with the external device. The sealing region and the second region (hb) are coplanar.

Claims (24)

1 . A box for a battery, the box being provided with an accommodating cavity for accommodating a battery cell, and a top surface facing away from the accommodating cavity, wherein

the top surface of the box is provided with a first region, a second region and a sealing region between the first region and the second region, the sealing region surrounds the first region, the sealing region is configured to mount a sealing member, the second region is configured with a hanging portion, and the battery is mounted to an external device via the hanging portion such that the sealing member is in contact with the external device;

wherein the sealing region and the second region are coplanar.

2 . The box according to claim 1 , wherein the first region, the second region and the sealing region are coplanar.

3 . The box according to claim 1 , wherein the hanging portion comprises at least one hanging hole which penetrates the second region.

4 . The box according to claim 1 , further comprising the sealing member, wherein the sealing member is mounted to the sealing region.

5 . The box according to claim 1 , comprising a main body, wherein the main body encloses the accommodating cavity, a top surface of the main body defines and forms at least part of the top surface of the box, and the first region and the sealing region are located in the top surface of the main body.

6 . The box according to claim 5 , comprising a lateral beam, wherein the main body has a peripheral side wall arranged around its top outer edge, the lateral beam is arranged on the peripheral side wall, and the top surface of the main body and a top surface of the lateral beam jointly define and form the top surface of the box.

7 . The box according to claim 6 , wherein the hanging portion is located in the second region defined by the top surface of the lateral beam.

8 . The box according to claim 6 , wherein there is a reserved distance between an outer edge of the sealing region that is close to the second region and the peripheral side wall of the main body.

9 . The box according to claim 7 , wherein the lateral beam comprises at least two sub-beams, the sub-beams are sequentially arranged spaced apart from each other along the peripheral side wall, and a top surface of each of the sub-beams defines and forms a part of the top surface of the lateral beam; and the sub-beam is provided with the hanging portion.

10 . The box according to claim 6 , wherein the main body comprises a carrier and a border, the border encloses a cavity with at least its top end being provided in a penetrating manner, the carrier covers the top end of the cavity, and the carrier and the border enclose at least part of the accommodating cavity; and

the lateral beam is arranged on the peripheral side wall defined by the border.

11 . A battery, comprising:

the box of claim 1 ; and

a battery cell accommodated in the accommodating cavity.

12 . The battery according to claim 11 , wherein the box comprises a main body, the main body encloses the accommodating cavity, the main body comprises a carrier located at the top portion of the box and configured to define the accommodating cavity, and the battery cell is arranged at the carrier.

13 . The battery according to claim 12 , wherein the battery cell is suspended from the carrier.

14 . The battery according to claim 13 , wherein the battery cell is bonded to the carrier.

15 . The battery according to claim 11 , wherein an outer surface of the battery cell that faces the carrier is defined as a first outer surface, and the battery cell comprises electrode terminals arranged on an outer surface of the battery cell other than the first outer surface.

16 . The battery according to claim 15 , wherein the battery cell has a second outer surface arranged opposite to the first outer surface, and the electrode terminals are arranged on the second outer surface.

17 . An electrical apparatus, comprising the battery of claim 11 , the battery being configured to supply electric energy to the electrical apparatus.

18 . The electrical apparatus according to claim 17 , comprising a vehicle, wherein the battery is arranged at a bottom portion of a vehicle body of the vehicle.

19 . The electrical apparatus according to claim 18 , wherein the battery is connected to the vehicle body via the top portion of the box, and the top portion of the box is configured to form at least part of a chassis of the vehicle body.
