20130266840 | BATTERY COOLING STRUCTURE - A battery cooling structure is provided in which since a battery support member ( | 10-10-2013 |
20140262573 | BATTERY PACK FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE - In a battery pack for an electric vehicle, since a cooling air suction port of a suction duct that sucks cooling air into a cooling passage formed in an interior of a battery case is disposed between a vehicle compartment and the battery case beneath the vehicle compartment, the cooling air suction port can be disposed at a relatively high position, and due to it being covered by the battery case and the vehicle compartment , it can be made difficult for dirt or water splashed up from below by a wheel or dirt or water falling from above to be sucked from the cooling air suction port into the battery case. | 09-18-2014 |
20140284125 | VEHICLE MOUNTING STRUCTURE FOR BATTERIES - When a battery case ( | 09-25-2014 |
20140315064 | VEHICLE BATTERY UNIT - A battery unit includes a battery and a battery case which accommodates the battery and which is disposed underneath a floor panel FP, and cooling air is introduced from an air intake port to cool the battery. In the battery case, a cooling space C which communicates with the air intake port is formed separately from a battery accommodation space M which accommodates the battery. | 10-23-2014 |
20140335393 | BATTERY MODULE - To connect a bus bar plate to a battery module, a plurality of recess portions provided on a plurality of holders so as to be spaced in the stacking direction are engaged with a plurality of projection portions provided on the bus bar plate to be spaced in the stacking direction. Since the lengths “a” of the plurality of projection portions are the same, and the plurality of recess portions are formed from a first recess portion having a length “a” and a second recess portion having a length “b” larger than the length “a,” the precision of positioning of the bus bar plate can be ensured by engagement between the projecting portion and the first recess portion, and even if the gap between the projecting portions or the recess portions is nonuniform, it is possible to assemble the bus bar plate onto the holder with high precision. | 11-13-2014 |
20140338998 | BATTERY PACK FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE AND BATTERY PACK MOUNTING STRUCTURE - In a battery pack for an electric vehicle, since a cooling air suction port ( | 11-20-2014 |
20140338999 | STRUCTURE FOR MOUNTING BATTERY PACK ON VEHICLE - In a structure for mounting a battery pack on a vehicle, since a recess portion, into which a cross member is fitted, is formed on an upper face of a battery case so as to extend in a vehicle width direction, it is possible to mount the battery pack on a vehicle body without interfering with the cross member, and it is unnecessary to raise the position of the cross member or form a cutout in the cross member, thereby enabling a balance to be achieved between the capacity of a vehicle compartment and the strength of the cross member while ensuring a sufficient minimum ground clearance for the battery pack and preventing a battery from becoming wet. Furthermore, since the recess portion is formed on the upper face of the battery case, a cooling passage disposed beneath the battery is not narrowed, thus ensuring the battery cooling performance. | 11-20-2014 |
20140374180 | STRUCTURE FOR MOUNTING BATTERY PACK ON VEHICLE - In a structure for mounting a battery pack on a vehicle, even if a battery case housing a plurality of batteries is disposed beneath a floor panel, due to an internal cable within the battery case being disposed above the batteries, it is possible to prevent the internal cable from becoming wet. Furthermore, if the internal cable disposed above the batteries were connected to an external cable via a high voltage connector without changing the height, the height of the floor panel would increase to thus constrain the vehicle compartment space, but since the high voltage connector is disposed at a position that is lower than the upper end of the battery, it is possible to decrease the height of the floor panel by disposing the external cable at a low position, thereby ensuring the vehicle compartment space. | 12-25-2014 |
