Abstract

The present application provides a battery module, a battery pack, and a battery-powered apparatus. The battery module includes a plurality of battery units and a busbar assembly. The plurality of battery units are arranged in a horizontal direction, where each battery unit includes a plurality of batteries stacked in a vertical direction, the plurality of batteries include a first battery and a second battery, the first battery and the second battery each include a first electrode terminal, a second electrode terminal, and an explosion-proof piece. A busbar assembly electrically connects the plurality of battery units, where the busbar assembly includes a first busbar connected to the first electrode terminal and the second electrode terminal. In a first direction perpendicular to the vertical direction and the horizontal direction, the first busbar includes a first weak zone that at least partially overlaps with the explosion-proof piece of the first battery.
