The present disclosure provides a multifunctional high-voltage connector and a battery product, the multifunctional high-voltage connector comprises: an upper cover; a pedestal; a conductive connection structure; two mating terminals; and a harness assembly. The conductive connection structure is used to make the two mating terminals be connected in series, and the harness assembly is directly connected to one of the mating terminals. When the upper cover and the pedestal are assembled, the conductive connection structure is simultaneously in contact with the two mating terminals, thereby turning on the high-voltage circuit. When the battery product requires maintenance, the upper cover is directly detached from the base, thereby turning off the high-voltage circuit. The battery product can be electrically connected to an external device via the harness assembly. The multifunctional high-voltage connector integrates both a switch function and a high-voltage connection function, therefore the connection resistance is greatly reduced.

A battery pack and an electric vehicle are provided. The battery pack includes a battery sequence. The battery sequence includes multiple cells. A thickness of each cell extends along a first direction. The multiple cells are arranged in sequence along the first direction to form the battery sequence. At least one of the cells includes a metal shell and an electrode core packaged in the metal shell. An air pressure inside the metal shell is lower than an air pressure outside the metal shell. A gap is provided between at least two adjacent cells. A ratio of the gap to the thickness of the cell ranges from 0.001 to 0.15.

The present disclosure relates to a horizontal composite electricity supply structure, which comprises a first insulation layer, a second insulation layer, two electrically conductive layers, and a plurality of electrochemical system element groups. The two electrically conductive layers are disposed on the first and second insulation layers, respectively. The electrochemical system element groups are disposed between the first insulation layer and the second insulation layer, and connected in series and/or in parallel via the electrically conductive layers. The electrochemical system element group is formed by several serially connected electrochemical system elements. Each electrochemical system element includes a package layer on the sidewall, so that their electrolyte systems do not circulate with one another. Thereby, the high voltage produced by connection will not influence any single electrochemical system element nor decompose their respective electrolyte systems. Hence, serial and/or parallel connections are made concurrently in the horizontal composite electricity supply structure.
