The present application provides a battery, a battery assembly, a power consumption device, a producing method and apparatus of a battery, and relates to the field of batteries. The battery includes a box, a battery cell disposed in the box, and a first connector electrically connected to the battery cell. An outer surface of the box is provided with a groove, and the first connector is disposed in the groove, so that a second connector of a power consumption device is at least partially located in the groove when butted with the first connector. The groove is configured to set the first connector. When electric energy of the battery cell needs to be output, the second connector on the power consumption device is butted with the first connector at the position of the groove, and the second connector is partially or completely located in the groove.

A method produces a cover assembly for a cell housing of a prismatic battery cell. In the method, a cell terminal consisting of three portions is arranged on a cover plate in such a way that one portion is arranged in a through-opening of the cover plate, another portion and the cover plate overlap to form a first interspace, and a further portion and the cover plate overlap to form a second interspace. A sealing element is provided in one of the interspaces and is preloaded by compressing the interspace. The cell terminal is connected to the cover plate by introducing a plastic into the interspace without the sealing element.

Presented are metalworking systems for forming metallic workpieces, methods for making/operating such metalworking systems, and battery module cell tabs bent by a multistage cluster-and-bend press. A metalworking system includes a grouping tool and a contouring tool that both align adjacent a workpiece support structure, such as a base plate of a battery module housing buttressing a stack of battery pouch cells. The grouping tool, which may include a first reciprocating plunger or plunger head, presses together a stack of metallic workpieces to thereby form a workpiece set having a first bend profile and a first length. The contouring tool, which may include a second reciprocating plunger or a pair of plunger fingers mounted on the plunger head, is attached to the grouping tool and bends the workpiece set to a second bend profile, distinct from the first bend profile, and a second set length, shorter than the first set length.

A battery module, a device, and a failure handling method for a failed battery cell. The battery module includes: a battery cell arrangement structure, including a plurality of battery cells arranged along a length direction, where the battery cells include electrode terminals, and the battery cells include a failed battery cell; a box body, having an accommodation cavity in which the battery cell arrangement structure is located; a mounting beam, located in the accommodation cavity and at an end of the battery cell arrangement structure along the width direction; a pressing plate; and a conductive component, connected to a positive electrode terminal and a negative electrode terminal of the failed battery cell. The conductive component is easily connected to electrode terminals of a failed battery cell, so that a maintenance process can be simplified and maintenance costs can be reduced.
