a pressure relief assembly connected between the main body and the cover,
wherein the pressure relief assembly is capable of controlling, based on a relationship between an internal pressure of the battery and a preset pressure, the cover to switch between a pressure relief position for opening the pressure relief channel and a sealing position for blocking the pressure relief channel.
2 . The oriented pressure relief structure according to claim 1 , wherein the pressure relief assembly comprises a rotating shaft disposed at one of the main body and the cover, the other one of the main body and the cover is provided with a shaft cavity for the rotating shaft to pass through, and the cover rotates around the main body through the rotating shaft.
3 . The oriented pressure relief structure according to claim 2 , wherein the pressure relief channel is located on one side of the rotating shaft in a radial direction of the rotating shaft.
4 . The oriented pressure relief structure according to claim 3 , wherein the pressure relief assembly comprises an elastic member connected between the main body and the cover, and the elastic member is located on the other side of the rotating shaft facing away from the pressure relief channel in the radial direction of the rotating shaft and is configured to provide a restoring force for restoring the cover from the pressure relief position to the sealing position.
5 . The oriented pressure relief structure according to claim 4 , wherein when in the sealing position, the elastic member is in a compressed state.
6 . The oriented pressure relief structure according to claim 4 , wherein the main body is provided with a limiting portion located on a side on which the pressure relief channel is located in the radial direction of the rotating shaft, and at least a portion of the cover abuts against the limiting portion under an action of the elastic member.
7 . The oriented pressure relief structure according to claim 6 , wherein the limiting portion comprises a limiting notch formed by recessing a surface of the main body facing the cover, and at least a portion of the cover abuts on the limiting notch.
8 . The oriented pressure relief structure according to claim 1 , further comprising a sealing member hermetically connected between the cover and the pressure relief channel.
9 . A battery box, comprising:
a box body; and
an oriented pressure relief structure disposed on the box body, wherein the oriented pressure relief structure comprises:
a main body provided with a pressure relief channel communicating with inside and outside of a battery,
a cover movably covering the main body, and
a pressure relief assembly connected between the main body and the cover,
wherein the pressure relief assembly is capable of controlling, based on a relationship between an internal pressure of the battery and a preset pressure, the cover to switch between a pressure relief position for opening the pressure relief channel and a sealing position for blocking the pressure relief channel,
wherein the box body is provided with an exhaust vent communicating with the pressure relief channel.
10 . The battery box according to claim 9 , wherein the pressure relief assembly comprises a rotating shaft disposed at one of the main body and the cover, the other one of the main body and the cover is provided with a shaft cavity for the rotating shaft to pass through, and the cover rotates around the main body through the rotating shaft.
11 . The battery box according to claim 10 , wherein the pressure relief channel is located on one side of the rotating shaft in a radial direction of the rotating shaft.
12 . The battery box according to claim 11 , wherein the pressure relief assembly comprises an elastic member connected between the main body and the cover, and the elastic member is located on the other side of the rotating shaft facing away from the pressure relief channel in the radial direction of the rotating shaft and is configured to provide a restoring force for restoring the cover from the pressure relief position to the sealing position.
13 . The battery box according to claim 12 , wherein when in the sealing position, the elastic member is in a compressed state.
14 . The battery box according to claim 12 , wherein the main body is provided with a limiting portion located on a side on which the pressure relief channel is located in the radial direction of the rotating shaft, and at least a portion of the cover abuts against the limiting portion under an action of the elastic member.
15 . The battery box according to claim 14 , wherein the limiting portion comprises a limiting notch formed by recessing a surface of the main body facing the cover, and at least a portion of the cover abuts on the limiting notch.
16 . The battery box according to claim 9 , wherein the oriented pressure relief structure further comprises a sealing member hermetically connected between the cover and the pressure relief channel.
17 . A battery, comprising:
a battery box and a battery module disposed inside the battery box, wherein the battery box comprises:
a box body; and
an oriented pressure relief structure disposed on the box body, wherein the oriented pressure relief structure comprises:
a main body provided with a pressure relief channel communicating with inside and outside of the battery,
