Abstract
Disclosed herein is a battery pack including a box body and a plurality of battery modules disposed in the box body and arranged in a horizontal direction. The battery module can include a plurality of battery cells electrically connected to each other by a plurality of first bus bars, the battery cell can include a battery case and two electrode terminals. The disclosed arrangement of the battery modules in the battery pack can effectively avoid short-circuiting the electrode terminals of the battery module caused by the collapse of the box body toward the inside, thereby improving the safety of the battery pack.
