BATTERY-MOUNTED VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240213610 titled 'BATTERY-MOUNTED VEHICLE

The abstract describes a patent application for a battery-mounted vehicle with a unique design to accommodate a battery pack.

  • The battery pack is mounted at the lower side of the floor pan of the passenger compartment.
  • A vehicle body frame member has a vertical wall facing the peripheral wall of the battery pack with a gap in between.
  • An expansion chamber is created by either an inner side concave portion at the battery pack's peripheral wall or an outer side concave portion at the vehicle body frame member's vertical wall.
  • The inner side concave portion is recessed towards the battery pack's inner side, while the outer side concave portion is recessed towards the vehicle body frame member's inner side.

Potential Applications: - Electric vehicles - Hybrid vehicles - Battery technology advancements

Problems Solved: - Efficient battery placement in vehicles - Improved battery cooling and safety measures

Benefits: - Enhanced vehicle performance - Optimal use of space in the vehicle - Increased safety for battery operation

Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Battery Mounting System for Electric Vehicles This technology could revolutionize the electric vehicle industry by providing a more efficient and safe way to mount batteries, potentially leading to increased adoption of electric vehicles in the market.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this battery mounting system compare to traditional methods in terms of safety and efficiency? 2. What are the potential cost implications of implementing this technology in electric vehicles?


Original Abstract Submitted

a battery-mounted vehicle includes a battery pack mounted at a vehicle lower side of a floor pan of a passenger compartment; a vehicle body frame member having a vertical wall that faces a peripheral wall of the battery pack in a vehicle horizontal direction with a gap therebetween; and an expansion chamber configured by at least one of an inner side concave portion that is formed at the peripheral wall of the battery pack or an outer side concave portion formed at the vertical wall of the vehicle body frame member, in a cross-sectional view viewed in the vehicle horizontal direction. the inner side concave portion is recessed toward an inner side, in the vehicle horizontal direction, of the battery pack, and the outer side concave portion is formed so as to be recessed toward an inner side, in the vehicle horizontal direction, of vehicle body frame member.
