Battery module for vehicle and vehicle

Abstract

The invention discloses a battery module for a vehicle and the vehicle. The battery module for the vehicle comprises a shell, a battery cell stack and a first cooling plate, and an accommodating spaceis formed in the shell. The plurality of battery cell stacks are arranged in the horizontal direction and are accommodated in the accommodating space. Each battery cell stack comprises a plurality ofbattery cells stacked in the vertical direction and an end plate suitable for clamping the plurality of battery cells. The first cooling plate is arranged in the accommodating space and is positionedbetween the two adjacent battery cell stacks. According to the battery module, the plurality of battery cell stacks are arranged in the battery module, each battery cell stack is formed by stacking the plurality of battery cells in the thickness direction, that is, the height of the battery module can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of the battery cells, so that the size of thebattery module in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction is adjustable, the grouping flexibility of the battery module is improved, and the battery module can be suitable for different vehicle types.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of vehicles, in particular to a battery module for the vehicle and the vehicle. Background technique [0002] In related technologies, the height of the battery module in the vehicle in the Z direction directly affects the height of the battery pack. The height of the battery pack will affect the distance between the battery pack and the ground and the distance from the driver's seat to the roof. Different models have height requirements for the battery pack. Different, for example, the high chassis of SUV type vehicles requires less requirements on the battery pack, but the low ground and small ground clearance of the car make the whole vehicle have strict requirements on the height of the battery pack. [0003] However, the battery cells of the battery module on traditional vehicles are vertically arranged in the accommodation space, the size of the battery module can only be changed in the horizontal direct...

[0002] In related technologies, the height of the battery module in the vehicle in the Z direction directly affects the height of the battery pack. The height of the battery pack will affect the distance between the battery pack and the ground and the distance from the driver's seat to the roof. Different models have height requirements for the battery pack. Different, for example, the high chassis of SUV type vehicles has low requirements for battery packs, but the low ground and small ground clearance of cars make the whole vehicle have strict requirements on the height of battery packs

[0003] However, the battery cells of the battery module on traditional vehicles are vertically arranged in the accommodation space, the size of the battery module can only be changed in the horizontal direction, the grouping flexibility of the battery cells is low, and the range of use of the battery module is limited. , can only be applied to one of the SUV models or sedan models
