Abstract

This application relates to an end plate of a battery module as well as a battery module. The end plate includes a body and a connector connected to the body. The body is fixedly connected to a side plate through the connector. The connector is provided with a light shielding part. The light shielding part is located on a side of the connector that faces the side plate, and located between the connector and the side plate. In the end plate as well as the battery module according to this application, the end plate includes the body and the connector, and weldability between the body and the side plate is improved by the connector. The connector includes a light shielding part that avoids the problem of battery explosion caused by a laser beam radiated to a battery inside the battery module, and improves safety performance of the battery.
