Abstract

A battery includes a plurality of arranged battery cells; and a pressure regulating apparatus, including a body portion and a regulating valve, where the body portion is arranged between adjacent battery cells, a gas pipeline being formed in the body portion, and the regulating valve is arranged in the gas pipeline and configured to regulate pressure in the gas pipeline so as to adjust a gap between adjacent battery cells.

Claims (13)

1 . A battery, comprising:

a plurality of arranged battery cells; and

a pressure regulating apparatus, comprising a body portion and a regulating valve, wherein the body portion is arranged between adjacent battery cells, a gas pipeline being formed in the body portion, and the regulating valve is arranged in the gas pipeline and configured to regulate pressure in the gas pipeline so as to adjust a gap between adjacent battery cells.

2 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the regulating valve comprises a pressure booster valve, and the pressure booster valve is configured to connect to a gas source device to increase the pressure in the gas pipeline when the pressure booster valve is actuated.

3 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein an inert gas circulates in the gas pipeline.

4 . The battery according to claim 3 , wherein a weak layer is provided on the body portion at a position corresponding to the gas pipeline, and when broken, the weak layer is used for the inert gas to flow out.

5 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the regulating valve comprises a pressure relief valve, wherein the pressure relief valve is configured to reduce the pressure in the gas pipeline when actuated.

6 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the body portion comprises a pipe wound between a plurality of adjacent battery cells.

7 . The battery according to claim 6 , wherein the pipe is wound on a side wall of the battery cell, and the side wall of the battery cell comprises a first side wall and a second side wall adjacent to each other, and an area of the first side wall is larger than an area of the second side wall, and a laying region of the pipe on the first side wall is symmetrically distributed.

8 . The battery according to claim 7 , wherein the laying region of the pipe on the first side wall comprises a plurality of portions, and the plurality of portions of the laying region are located on two sides of a center line of the first side wall.

9 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the body portion comprises a plurality of air cushions arranged between adjacent battery cells.

10 . The battery according to claim 1 , wherein a pressure sensor is provided in the gas pipeline.

11 . An electric apparatus, comprising the battery according to claim 1 .
