The locking portions 423 of the two side end plates 420 respectively abut against one side of the corresponding side bracket 414 away from the battery cell 412. The supporting portions 425 of the two side end plates 420 jointly support and fix to the mounting bracket 200, so that there is a ventilation gap between the mounting bracket 200 and the horizontal module 410, improving the heat dissipation effect of the battery module and realizing the fixed support of the mounting bracket 200 at the same time.

Since each side end plate 420 includes a fixing portion 421, a locking portion 423 and a supporting portion 425 connected in sequence, the fixing portion 421 is connected to the bottom shell 110, and the locking portions 423 of the two side end plates 420 are respectively abutted against the side of the corresponding side bracket 414 away from the battery cell 412, that is, the locking portions 423 of the two side end plates 420 are respectively abutted against the two sides of the horizontal module 410, and the supporting portions 425 of the two side end plates 420 are jointly supported on the mounting frame 200, so that the mounting frame 200 is located above the horizontal module 410, and there is a ventilation gap between the mounting frame 200 and the horizontal module 410, which is conducive to ventilation and heat dissipation of the battery module, that is, the ventilation and heat dissipation effect of the battery module is improved.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment, the housing 100 includes a bottom case 110, a front case 120, a rear case 130, a left side case 140, a right side case 150, and a top cover 160.

[0029] As Figure 5 and Figure 9 shown, in one of the embodiments, the fixing portion 421, the locking portion 423, and the supporting portion 425 are of an integrally formed structure, so that the fixing portion 421, the locking portion 423, and the supporting portion 425 are firmly connected, and at the same time, the structure of the side end plate 420 is relatively compact. In this embodiment, the fixing portion 421, the locking portion 423, and the supporting portion 425 are of an integrally stamped and formed structure, so that the side end plate 420 is easily manufactured and formed, and at the same time, the structure of the side end plate 420 is relatively compact and simple. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the fixing portion 421, the locking portion 423, and the supporting portion 425 are not limited to an integrally stamped and formed structure. For example, the fixing portion 421, the locking portion 423, and the supporting portion 425 are respectively formed and fixed together by welding.

[0031] like Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the first bending area 4212 and the second bending area 4251 are both located on the same side of the locking portion 423, so that the structure of the side end plate 420 is more compact. In this embodiment, the first bending area 4212 and the second bending area 4251 are both located on the side of the side end plate 420 away from the corresponding side bracket 414, so as to avoid the situation where there is assembly interference between the side end plate 420 and the horizontal module 410, so that the horizontal module 410 can be better locked and fixed between the two side end plates 420, and the side end plate 420 can be better fixedly connected to the bottom shell 110.
[0032] like Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, each of the side end plates 420 is provided with a lower hollow groove 426, which reduces the weight of the side end plate 420 and allows the battery module structure 400 to be better ventilated and heat-dissipated; and / or, in one embodiment, each of the side end plates 420 is provided with an upper hollow groove 427, which extends to the end of the support portion 425 away from the locking portion 423, reduces the weight of the side end plate 420, allows the battery module structure 400 to be better ventilated and heat-dissipated, and facilitates the processing and forming of the upper hollow groove 427.

The first distance H1 is greater than the second distance H2, so that the supporting portion 425 is arranged higher than the side bracket 414, ensuring that there is a ventilation gap between the mounting frame 200 and the horizontal module 410. In this embodiment, the fixing surface of the fixing portion 421 is the part where the fixing portion 421 is fixedly connected to the bottom case 110, and the fixing surface of the fixing portion 421 is a planar structure.

The second buffer member 460 abuts against the mounting frame 200 and each of the side brackets 414 respectively, so that there is good buffering performance between the side bracket 414 and the mounting frame 200, in order to better protect the horizontal module 410; in this embodiment, the second buffer member 460 is buffer cotton, and the second buffer member 460 extends to the outer peripheral wall of the battery cell 412 adjacent to the mounting frame 200. And / or, As Figure 5 and Figure 10 shown, further, a first reverse riveting nut 4201 protrudes from the side of the second side end plate 420b facing away from the first side end plate 420a. The first reverse riveting nut 4201 is provided with a first screw hole 4202 communicating with the third through hole 4232. The screw member 430 is also screwed to the first reverse riveting nut 4201 through the third through hole 4232 of the second side end plate 420b, so that the screw member 430 can reliably lock and fix the horizontal module 410.
