At present, from the perspective of market development, the application of power batteries is becoming more and more extensive. Power batteries are not only used in energy storage power systems such as hydropower, thermal power, wind power and solar power stations, but also widely used in electric vehicles such as electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric cars, as well as military equipment and aerospace and other fields. With the continuous expansion of the application field of power batteries, the market demand is also constantly expanding.

Generally, batteries have a circuit board, which can also be called a BMS (Battery Management System) board. The circuit board is mainly used for intelligent management and maintenance of each battery unit (battery module or battery cell) of the battery, to prevent the battery from overcharging and over-discharging, to extend the battery life, and to monitor the battery status. The circuit board can receive information collected by the information collection component in the battery, including but not limited to the temperature collection component, pressure collection component, voltage collection component, etc. The circuit board can also transmit the received information to other structures, such as to the controller, electrical equipment, etc.

The circuit board can receive information and transmit information to other structures through an adapter, that is, the circuit board is electrically connected to the information collection component through the adapter, and/or the circuit board is electrically connected to other structures that receive circuit board information through the adapter. In the related art, the adapter has a male connector, the circuit board has a female terminal, and the female terminal of the circuit board is plugged with the male connector of the adapter. Other structures that receive information from the circuit board are provided with female terminals, and the structure that receives information from the circuit board is provided with female terminals that are plugged with the male connector of the adapter. Due to multiple plugging and the battery being in a vibrating condition, the female terminals on the circuit board and/or the structure that receives circuit board information are easily damaged, and it is difficult and costly to maintain and replace the female terminals on the circuit board and/or the structure that receives circuit board information.

Based on the above considerations, in order to reduce the difficulty and cost of maintenance and replacement after the female terminal is damaged, the present application provides a converter, the converter includes multiple female terminals, and at least two of the multiple female terminals are used to respectively mate with the male connectors of two target parts.

The adapter includes multiple female terminals, and two electrically connected female terminals can be selected to be plugged into and matched with the male connectors of the two target parts respectively, so as to realize the electrical connection of the two target parts through the adapter. The female terminals are more easily damaged than the male connectors. Since the female terminals are arranged on the adapter, when the female terminals are damaged, they can be repaired or replaced by replacing the female terminals of the adapter and the target part or directly repairing or replacing the adapter. Compared with the situation where the female terminals are arranged on the target part and the male connector is arranged on the adapter, the female terminals are arranged on the adapter, which makes it more convenient to repair and replace the female terminals after they are damaged, and the cost of repair and replacement is lower.

If the conductive parts 321 of any two terminal groups Q are insulated and separated, then the female terminals 31 of any two terminal groups Q are insulated and separated. It can be understood that in this embodiment, a part of the female terminals 31 of the adapter 30 are electrically connected. The male connectors 2100 of the two target parts 2000 can only be plugged and matched with the two female terminals 31 located in the same terminal group Q to achieve electrical connection between the two target parts 2000. If the male connector 2100 of one of the two target parts 2000 is plugged and matched with the female terminal 31 in one terminal group Q, and the male connector 2100 of the other of the two target parts 2000 is plugged and matched with the female terminal 31 in another terminal group Q, the electrical connection between the two target parts 2000 cannot be achieved.

The insulation separation between the terminal groups Q can be achieved by the first housing 33 of the female terminal 31, or by other insulating members.

If the conductive parts 321 of any two terminal groups Q are insulated and separated, the adapter 30 has at least two independent electrical transmission paths, and the adapter 30 can transmit different electrical signals at the same time, so that the adapter 30 can achieve more functions. If the conductive parts 321 of any two terminal groups Q are insulated and separated, when one terminal group Q is damaged, the other terminal group Q can be used as a spare terminal group Q, and the target part 2000 can be electrically connected to the conductive parts 321 of the other terminal groups Q, so that the adapter 30 does not need to be frequently replaced, saving costs.

In some other embodiments, the female terminal 31 itself can be made of a conductive material. The plug hole 311 is disposed in the conductive material.

In some embodiments, the adapter 30 further includes a connecting portion 34 , the plurality of female terminals 31 are connected to the connecting portion 34 , and the connecting portion 34 is configured to allow relative movement between the plurality of female terminals 31 .

At least two female terminals 31 are electrically connected through the connecting portion 34. All female terminals 31 can be connected at any position of the connecting portion 34. For example, multiple female terminals 31 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the connecting portion 34, and multiple female terminals 31 can be arranged at different angles.

After the plurality of female terminals 31 move relative to each other, the relative positional relationship between the female terminals 31 can be changed, such as changing the angle between the female terminals 31 .

The connection portion 34 allows the plurality of female terminals 31 to move relative to each other in a variety of ways. For example, each female terminal 31 is rotatably connected to the connection portion 34 , and the extension direction of each female terminal 31 relative to the rotation axis of the connection portion 34 can be the same or different.

The connection part 34 can change the mechanical structure of the shape. For example, the connection part 34 is a hinge. As shown in FIG6 and FIG7, the connection part 34 includes a first connection part 342 and a second connection part 343. The first connection part 342 and the second connection part 343 are hinged. Part of the female terminals 31 are connected to the first connection part 342, and the other part of the female terminals 31 are connected to the second connection part 343. The first connection part 342 rotates relative to the second connection part 343, and the female terminals 31 connected to the first connection part 342 can move relative to the female terminals 31 connected to the second connection part 343. FIG6 shows the state in which the connection part 34 makes the two female terminals 31 at an angle of 180°. FIG7 shows the state in which the two female terminals 31 change from the state in FIG6 to the state in FIG7 after the first connection part 342 and the second connection part 343 rotate around the hinge axis. In FIG7, the angle between the two female terminals 31 is 90°.

In other embodiments, the connection portion 34 may be made of a flexible material, and the connection portion 34 may be bent and twisted to achieve relative movement between the plurality of female terminals 31 .

Therefore, the female terminal 31 is connected to the connecting part 34, and the connecting part 34 can allow relative movement between multiple female terminals 31, so that the relative positions of the female terminals 31 can be changed, which is convenient for the connection between the adapter 30 and the target part 2000, and also enables the adapter 30 to adapt to special-shaped spaces, facilitating the installation of the adapter 30.

In some embodiments, the hardness of the female terminal 31 is greater than the hardness of the connecting portion 34, so the female terminal 31 is not easily deformed, which facilitates the plug-in mating of the female terminal 31 with the male connector 2100 of the target part 2000, and can also improve the stability of the plug-in mating of the female terminal 31 with the male connector 2100 of the target part 2000.

All female terminals 31 are connected to the connecting portion 34 , and the connecting portion 34 electrically connects at least two female terminals 31 .

In some embodiments, the connection portion 34 may be made of a conductive material, and all female terminals 31 are connected to the female terminals 31, so that the connection portion 34 electrically connects any two female terminals 31. In an embodiment where the female terminal 31 is provided with a socket 311, and a conductive portion 321 is provided in the socket 311, the connection portion 34 made of a conductive material can connect the conductive portion 321 in each socket 311, thereby achieving electrical connection between any two female terminals 31 through the connection portion 34.

As shown in FIG4 , in some embodiments, the connection portion 34 includes a second housing 341, and the conductive member 32 further includes a transition portion 322, which is disposed in the second housing 341. It can be understood that the second housing 341 and the transition portion 322 together form the connection portion 34. The second housing 341 can protect the transition portion 322.

The second housing 341 may be made of insulating material, such as rubber, silicone, ceramic, etc. In the embodiment where the female terminals 31 are made of conductive material, at least two female terminals 31 are electrically connected to the adapter 322 , thereby achieving electrical connection of at least two female terminals 31 .

In the embodiment where the female terminal 31 is provided with a socket 311 and a conductive portion 321 is provided in the socket 311, the conductive portions 321 in the sockets 311 of at least two female terminals 31 are electrically connected to the adapter portion 322, thereby achieving electrical connection of at least two female terminals 31. The first shell 33 of the female terminal 31 and the second shell 341 of the connecting portion 34 can be separately provided or integrally formed. The materials of the first shell 33 and the second shell 341 can be the same or different.

Please continue to refer to Figure 4. In some embodiments, the female terminal 31 is provided with a socket 311 for inserting the male connector 2100. The socket 311 includes an entrance section 3111 and a mating section 3112. The hole wall of the entrance section 3111 includes a guide slope 3113. The guide slope 3113 is used to guide the male connector 2100 to insert into the mating section 3112.

The entrance section 3111 is the first section of the jack 311 for the male connector 2100 to be inserted. One end of the entrance section 3111 is connected to the mating section 3112. The hole wall surface of the entrance section 3111 is a guiding slope 3113, so that along the extension direction of the entrance section 3111, the cross-sectional area of one end of the entrance section 3111 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the other end, and the mating section 3112 is connected to the end of the entrance section 3111 with the smallest cross-sectional area, so that the entrance section 3111 forms an entrance with a larger cross-sectional area, which facilitates the insertion of the male connector 2100, thereby facilitating the plug-in mating of the male connector 2100 and the female terminal 31.

The guide slope 3113 can have various shapes. The guide slope 3113 can be a conical surface. The male connector 2100 enters the entrance section 3111 from the large end of the conical surface, and then passes through the entrance section 3111 from the small end of the conical surface and enters the mating section 3112. For example, the entrance section 3111 can be a conical hole, and the hole wall surface of the entrance section 3111 is a conical surface, and the guide slope 3113 is a conical surface; the entrance section 3111 can be a pyramidal hole, and the hole wall surface of the entrance section 3111 is a pyramidal surface, and the guide slope 3113 is a pyramidal surface. The guide slope 3113 in the shape of a conical surface and the guide slope 3113 in the shape of a pyramidal surface are both structures that are easy to process and can reduce the manufacturing cost and difficulty of the adapter 30.

The hole wall surface of the entrance section 3111 of the jack 311 includes a guiding slope 3113. The setting of the guiding slope 3113 facilitates the insertion of the male connector 2100 into the jack 311, thereby facilitating the connection between the converter and the target part 2000.

The shape of the mating section 3112 includes but is not limited to a circle, a prism, etc. Of course, the shape of the mating section 3112 can be matched according to the shape structure of the male connector 2100 so that the female terminal 31 and the male connector 2100 can be better matched. Along the extension direction of the mating section 3112, the cross-sections at any position of the mating section 3112 can be the same or different. Exemplarily, the mating section 3112 includes a first hole section 3114 and a second hole section 3115, and the two ends of the first hole section 3114 are respectively connected to the entrance section 3111 and the second section, and the cross-sectional area of the second section is greater than the cross-sectional area of the first section. The conductive portion 321 can be located in the second section.

The angle between two adjacent female terminals 31 can be any angle. For example, if the angle between two adjacent female terminals 31 is greater than 0° and less than 180°, it is helpful to reduce the risk of damage, bending and breaking of the transition part 322 in the connecting part 34.

As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 , in some embodiments, the plurality of female terminals 31 include a first female terminal 31 a and a second female terminal 31 b .

As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the adapter 30 includes two female terminals 31, and the angle between the two female terminals 31 is A, 0°＜A≤90° or 90°＜A≤180°. Exemplarily, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, the first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b are respectively connected to the first end face and the second end face opposite to the connecting portion 34, the first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b extend in directions away from each other, and the angle A between the two female terminals 31 is 180°. As shown in Figure 8, the connecting portion 34 has adjacent and perpendicular first and second end faces, the first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b are respectively connected to the first end face and the second end face, the first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b extend in directions perpendicular to each other, and the angle A between the two female terminals 31 is 90°.

The first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b can be respectively plugged into and matched with the male connectors 2100 of the two target parts 2000. After the female terminal 31 is damaged, the converter can be replaced. Compared with the situation in which the female terminal 31 is set on the target part 2000 and the male connector 2100 is set on the adapter 30, the first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b are set on the adapter 30. After the female terminal 31 is damaged, it is more convenient to repair and replace it, and the cost of repair and replacement is lower.

As shown in FIG. 9-FIG . 11 , in some embodiments, the plurality of female terminals 31 further includes a third female terminal 31 c .

The connector includes three female terminals 31, which are respectively a first female terminal 31a, a second female terminal 31b and a third female terminal 31c.

The angles between the first female terminal 31a, the second female terminal 31b and the third female terminal 31c can be set according to actual needs. For example, as shown in FIG9, the first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b are set at an acute angle, that is, 0＜A＜90°, the second female terminal 31b and the third female terminal 31c are set at an obtuse angle, that is, the angle B between the second female terminal 31b and the third female terminal 31c satisfies 90°＜B＜180°, and the third female terminal 31c and the first female terminal 31a are set at an obtuse angle, that is, the angle C between the third female terminal 31c and the first female terminal 31a satisfies 90°＜C＜180°.

As shown in FIG. 10 , in some other embodiments, the angles between any two of the first female terminal 31 a , the second female terminal 31 b and the third female terminal 31 c may be the same, that is, A=B=C=120°.

As shown in Figure 11, in some other embodiments, the angle A between the first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b is 180°, the angle B between the third female terminal 31c and the second female terminal 31b is 90°, and the angle C between the third female terminal 31c and the first female terminal 31a is 90°.

The male connector 2100 of the two target parts 2000 can be respectively plugged into and matched with any two of the first female terminal 31a, the second female terminal 31b and the third female terminal 31c. The female terminal 31 that is not matched with the target part 2000 can be used as a spare female terminal 31. After any female terminal 31 matched with the target part 2000 is damaged, the male connector 2100 of the target part 2000 can be inserted into the spare female terminal 31, thereby realizing electrical connection between the two target parts 2000. This can extend the service life of the adapter 30, eliminate the need for frequent replacement of the adapter 30, and save costs.

The angles between the first female terminal 31a, the second female terminal 31b, the third female terminal 31c and the fourth female terminal 31d can be set according to actual needs. For example, the first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b are arranged at an acute angle, that is, the angle A between the first female terminal 31a and the second female terminal 31b satisfies 0°＜A＜90°. The third female terminal 31c is arranged adjacent to the second female terminal 31b, and the third female terminal 31c and the second female terminal 31b are arranged at an obtuse angle, that is, the angle B between the third female terminal 31c and the second female terminal 31b satisfies 90°＜B＜180°.

The male connectors 2100 of the two target parts 2000 can be respectively plugged and matched with any two of the first female terminal 31a, the second female terminal 31b, the third female terminal 31c and the fourth female terminal 31d for electrical connection. The female terminal 31 that is not matched with the target part 2000 can be used as a spare female terminal 31. After the female terminal 31 matched with the target part 2000 is damaged, the male connector 2100 of the target part 2000 can be inserted into the spare female terminal 31, thereby realizing electrical connection between the two target parts 2000.
