A case, a battery, a power consuming device, and a method for assembling a case are provided. The case includes a first case body, an accommodating groove, a sealant, and a second case body. The first case body is provided with an opening. The accommodating groove is provided in a peripheral direction of the opening. The sealant is accommodated in the accommodating groove. The second case body is provided with a peripherally-arranged joint part. The joint part is configured to extend into the accommodating groove and be joined with the sealant when the second case body covers the opening, so as to form a sealed connection between the first case body and the second case body. The accommodating groove can limit the sealant, the sealant does not shift in the accommodating groove, and a sealing failure is less likely to occur, thus ensuring the sealing performance of the sealant.

A battery module, which includes at least one battery cell and a module case for packaging the at least one battery cell, wherein the module case includes: a top cover configured to cover an upper side of the at least one battery cell; and a side plate configured to cover all of opposing side surfaces of the top cover and opposing side surfaces of the at least one battery cell and configured to be coupled to the top cover by fitting.

A battery cover assembly includes a cover plate, an electrode inner terminal and an electrode outer terminal. The electrode inner terminal is electrically connected to the electrode outer terminal through a current interrupt structure disposed on the cover plate. The current interrupt structure includes a sealed chamber configured to fill a gas-producing medium therein. The sealed chamber is configured to make the gas-producing medium to be electrically connected to positive electrodes and negative electrodes of a battery. When a voltage difference between the positive electrodes and negative electrodes of the battery exceeds a rated value, the gas-producing medium is capable of producing gas, to disrupt the electrical connection between the electrode inner terminal and the electrode outer terminal under the action of the pressure of the gas.
