The invention belongs to the technical field of electric vehicles, and specifically relates to a battery pack box body and a battery pack. A first skirt edge is arranged on the periphery of an upper box cover, a second skirt edge is arranged on the periphery of the top of a lower box body, the upper box cover and the lower box body are combined together in a matched mode in the mode that the firstskirt edge and the second skirt edge are overlapped and fixed together, and a sealing strip is arranged between the first skirt edge and the second skirt edge. The module mounting beam is mounted onthe inner upper side of the lower box body and provided with a fixing part for fixing a battery module, L-shaped fixing lugs are arranged at the two ends of the module pressing strip, and a block-shaped reinforcing rib and a strip-shaped reinforcing rib are formed on the inner bottom face of the lower box body in a punching mode. The pressing strip structure fixing mode is high in strength, good in stability, simple in installation process, light in weight and high in efficiency, and the safety performance of a system is improved. Installation process is simple, weight is light, and efficiencyis high. The battery pack box body adopts an enveloping structure, the height of the side keel is designed at the height of the gravity center horizontal plane of the battery pack cell, the lower boxbody strength is increased, the battery module fixed horizontal plane moment arm is zero, and the tension fracture damage of the moment to the battery pack box body is reduced.
