Commercial Applications: Title: "Innovative Battery Module Assembly for Electric Vehicles" This technology could revolutionize the electric vehicle industry by providing a safer and more efficient way to assemble and protect battery modules.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the protective cover enhance the safety of the battery modules? 2. What advantages does the frame design offer in terms of structural support and stability?
Original Abstract Submitted
A battery module assembly includes: a frame; a plurality of battery modules accommodated in a lower portion of the frame, each of which includes a battery cell; and a protective cover extending across and protecting lower portions of the battery modules. The frame includes a plurality of support fixing portions extending in a length direction in which each of the battery modules extends and supports both sides of the battery modules. The battery modules further include fastening flanges protruding in directions from end portions adjacent to the support fixing portions and overlapping the support fixing portions in a vertical direction, and the battery modules are fixed to the lower portion of the frame by using fixing members that extend through the fastening flanges from lower sides of the fastening flanges and are accommodated in the support fixing portions.
