[0038] [First Embodiment]

[0039] Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view showing a battery pack according to some embodiments.

[0040] Figure 2 is Figure 1 a cross-sectional view taken along the cutting line 1A-1A'.

[0041] Figure 3 is Figure 1 a cross-sectional view taken along the cutting line 1B-1B′.

[0042] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, the battery pack 100 may include a bottom plate 110, a plurality of side walls (120A, 120B, 130A, 130B), a plurality of battery devices 140, a first partition wall 150, a plurality of second partition walls 160, an electronic component partition wall 170, and a cover 180. The battery pack 100 may be the final form of a battery system installed on a vehicle or the like.

[0043] Hereinafter, two directions substantially parallel to the upper surface 110T of the bottom plate 110 are respectively defined as the X direction and the Y direction, and the direction substantially perpendicular to the upper surface 110T of the bottom plate 110 is defined as the Z direction. The X direction, the Y direction, and the Z direction may be substantially perpendicular to each other.

[0044] The bottom plate 110 may support a plurality of side walls (120A, 120B, 130A, 130B), a plurality of battery devices 140, a first partition wall 150, a plurality of second partition walls 160, and an electronic component partition wall 170.

[0045] In some embodiments, the bottom plate 110 may include at least one hollow portion 111. The hollow portion 111 may be exposed to the outside of the bottom plate 110. The hollow portion 111 may extend in the X direction along the side surface of the bottom plate 110. The extending direction of the hollow portion 111 may be substantially perpendicular to the Y direction. As a non-limiting example, the shape of the hollow portion 111 may be a rounded square column, a rectangular column, a circular column, or an oval column. The bottom plate 110 may include two or more hollow portions 111. The plurality of hollow portions 111 may be substantially parallel to each other. Each of the plurality of hollow portions 111 may have a different shape. The plurality of hollow portions 111 may all have the same shape. The volume of each of the plurality of hollow portions 111 may be different.

[0046] In some embodiments, the bottom plate 110 may be manufactured by an extrusion process. As a non-limiting example, the extrusion process may be a direct extrusion process or an indirect extrusion process. In some embodiments, the material of the bottom plate 110 may be aluminum or an alloy containing aluminum. The hollow portion 111 of the bottom plate 110 as described above may be formed by the extrusion process.

[0047] In some embodiments, the bottom plate 110 may be seamless. Since the bottom plate 110 is manufactured by the extrusion process as described above, the bottom plate 110 may be seamless. As used herein, "seamless" may mean that the hollow portion 111 of the bottom plate 110 does not have a joining member or a joint line.

[0048] In some embodiments, the bottom plate 110 may include a foamed foam 112. In some embodiments, the foamed foam 112 may be disposed in at least one hollow portion 111 of the bottom plate 110. The foamed foam 112 may be disposed in at least one of a plurality of hollow portions 111 of the bottom plate 110.

[0049] In some embodiments, the foamed foam 112 may be one or more selected from the group consisting of polyurethane foam and silicone foam.

[0050] Since the bottom plate 110 includes the foamed foam 112, even if an impact occurs at the lower part of the battery pack 100, the foamed foam 112 can absorb the impact to protect the plurality of battery devices 140 from external impact. Since the bottom plate 110 includes the foamed foam 112, heat transfer between the inside and outside of the battery pack 100 can be blocked, thereby keeping the temperature of the plurality of battery devices 140 constant.

[0051] As a non-limiting example, the bottom plate 110 may include a cooling flow path (not shown). By including a cooling flow path in the bottom plate 110, even if a thermal runaway event occurs in the battery device 140, the coolant flowing in the cooling flow path can absorb heat and prevent the thermal runaway event from spreading to adjacent battery devices 140.

[0052] The plurality of side walls 120A, 120B, 130A, 130B may extend in the Z direction from the upper surface 110T of the bottom plate.
