Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a battery pack including a bracket coupled between at least one side supporting member and a rear mounting member to distribute load of battery modules to a rear mounting member via the at least one side supporting member, thereby effectively supporting vibration of the battery pack in a forward and backward direction and load of the battery pack.
Abstract:
A middle- or large-sized battery pack having two or more hexahedral battery modules, each including a plurality of chargeable and dischargeable plate-shaped unit cells, mounted in a pack case, wherein the battery pack removes heat generated during the charge and discharge of the unit cells using an air cooling method, the unit cells of each of the battery modules are vertically stacked such that the number of the unit cells corresponds to a height of a battery pack installation space defined in a vehicle while neighboring unit cells are spaced apart from each other such that a coolant channel is defined between the respective unit cells, the pack case is formed in a shape corresponding to the battery pack installation space in the vehicle, and a coolant for removing heat from the unit cells is introduced through at least one side of the pack case.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a battery pack including (a) a battery module array having battery modules arranged in two or more rows, (b) a pair of side support members that are in close contact with outermost unit modules in the battery modules in the battery module array, (c) lower end support members coupled to lower ends of the side support members, (d) two or more first upper mounting members coupled to upper ends of the side support members and lower ends of the battery modules erected in an upside-down fashion, (e) a second upper mounting member coupled to upper ends of the first upper mounting members, and (f) a rear mounting member disposed at the rear of the battery module array.
