[0040] In the power storage device 2, the short side surface 13 faces the vehicle 1 (see Figure 1 ) and the storage cells 10 arranged with their short sides 14 facing the front of the vehicle 1 are alternately arranged along the width direction D2 of the vehicle 1.
[0041] Figure 6 It is a second cross-sectional view schematically showing the floor panel 4 and the power storage device 2 . Figure 6 FIG. 2 shows a state where the power storage device 2 is arranged below the floor panel 4. Figure 3 The cross section along line VI-VI is shown in FIG.
[0042] Reference Figure 6 The floor panel 4 is formed with a Figure 1 ) are provided with a plurality of protrusions 5 protruding from the bottom. Figure 6 In the illustrated example, four protrusions 5 are formed on the floor panel 4. The protrusions 5 are formed at intervals in the front-rear direction D1 of the vehicle 1. Furthermore, each of the protrusions 5 is formed to extend in the width direction D2 of the vehicle 1. Furthermore, the protrusions 5 are formed to be longer than the cushioning member 50 in the width direction D2.
[0043] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The power storage device 2 includes an adhesive material 40 for bonding the power storage cells 10 to the upper case 21. The adhesive material 40 is made of resin. The adhesive material 40 is provided on the upper surface 11 of the power storage cells 10. More specifically, the adhesive material 40 is provided along the upper surface 11 between the upper surface 11 of the power storage cells 10 and the upper case 21. The plurality of power storage cells 10 are fixed to the upper case 21 by the adhesive material 40.
[0044] Reference Figure 6A plurality of cushioning members 50 are arranged between the upper housing 21 and the floor panel 4 at intervals in the front-rear direction D1 of the vehicle 1. More specifically, the plurality of cushioning members 50 are arranged above the adhesive material 40. Furthermore, the plurality of cushioning members 50 are arranged below the plurality of protrusions 5.

[0047] As described above, in the power storage device 2 according to the first embodiment, the adhesive material 40 is provided on the upper surface 11 of the storage cell 10, and the cushioning member 50 is provided above the adhesive material 40 and between the upper case 21 and the floor panel 4. As a result, the load from the floor panel 4 is applied to the cushioning member 50, so the adhesive material 40 located below the cushioning member 50 is pressed against the storage cell 10 by the load from the cushioning member 50. Therefore, even if the amount of adhesive material 40 used is reduced, it is possible to prevent the storage cell 10 from peeling off from the adhesive material 40. Therefore, according to the power storage device 2 according to the first embodiment, it is possible to secure the storage cell 10 while reducing the amount of adhesive material 40 used.
[0048] Furthermore, the floor panel 4 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 5 that protrude downwardly from the vehicle 1, and a plurality of cushioning members 50 are disposed below each of the protrusions 5. The provision of the protrusions 5 causes the cushioning members 50 to be pressed against the upper case 21 by the protrusions 5, compared to a case without the protrusions 5. Consequently, the adhesive material 40 located below the cushioning members 50 is pressed more strongly against the storage cells 10. Consequently, even when the amount of adhesive material 40 used is reduced, separation of the storage cells 10 from the adhesive material 40 can be suppressed.
[0049] Furthermore, the cushioning member 50 is formed to extend in the direction in which the plurality of storage cells 10 are arranged (the width direction D2 of the vehicle 1). Therefore, the load from the floor panel 4 can be applied to the plurality of storage cells 10. Consequently, even if the amount of adhesive 40 used is reduced, separation of the storage cells 10 from the adhesive 40 can be suppressed.

More specifically, multiple cushioning members 50 are spaced apart in longitudinal direction D1 of vehicle 1. Furthermore, each of the multiple cushioning members 50 is formed to extend in width direction D2 of vehicle 1. Alternatively, each cushioning member 50 may be formed from near left side wall 28C to near right side wall 28D.
[0055] Figure 8 It is a cross-sectional view schematically showing the floor panel 4 and the power storage device 2A. Figure 8 FIG. 2 shows a state where the power storage device 2A is arranged below the floor panel 4. Figure 7 The cross section along line VIII-VIII is shown in FIG.
[0056] Reference Figure 8 The power storage device 2A is arranged below the floor panel 4. In the power storage device 2A, the short side surface 13 faces the vehicle 1 (see Figure 1 ) and the storage cells 10 arranged with the short side surfaces 14 facing the left side of the vehicle 1 are alternately arranged along the front-rear direction D1 of the vehicle 1.
[0057] The floor panel 4 is formed with a plurality of protrusions 5 that protrude downwardly from the vehicle 1. Figure 8 In the illustrated example, four protrusions 5 are formed on the floor panel 4. The protrusions 5 are formed at intervals in the front-rear direction D1 of the vehicle 1. Furthermore, each of the protrusions 5 is formed to extend in the width direction D2 of the vehicle 1. Furthermore, the protrusions 5 are formed to be longer than the cushioning member 50 in the width direction D2.
[0058] The power storage device 2A includes an adhesive material 40 for bonding the storage cells 10 to the upper case 21. The adhesive material 40 is made of resin. The adhesive material 40 is provided on the upper surface 11 of the storage cells 10. More specifically, the adhesive material 40 is provided along the upper surface 11 between the upper surface 11 of the storage cells 10 and the upper case 21. The plurality of storage cells 10 are fixed to the upper case 21 by the adhesive material 40.
[0059] A plurality of cushioning members 50 are arranged between the upper housing 21 and the floor panel 4 at intervals in the front-rear direction D1 of the vehicle 1. More specifically, the plurality of cushioning members 50 are arranged above the adhesive material 40. Furthermore, the plurality of cushioning members 50 are arranged below the plurality of protrusions 5. Specifically, the cushioning members 50 are provided below the protrusions 5, and the adhesive material 40 is provided below the cushioning members 50.
[0060] The power storage device 2A further includes a cooler 70 for cooling the power storage cells 10 . The cooler 70 is provided along the lower surface 12 of the power storage cells 10 .
[0061] The power storage device 2A further includes an insulating plate 80 . The insulating plate 80 is provided along the bottom plate 24 between the cooler 70 and the bottom plate 24 .
[0062] As described above, in the power storage device 2A according to the second embodiment, the adhesive material 40 is provided on the upper surface 11 of the storage cell 10, and the cushioning member 50 is provided above the adhesive material 40 and between the upper case 21 and the floor panel 4. As a result, the load from the floor panel 4 is applied to the cushioning member 50, so the adhesive material 40 located below the cushioning member 50 is pressed against the storage cell 10 by the load from the cushioning member 50. Therefore, even if the amount of adhesive material 40 used is reduced, it is possible to prevent the storage cell 10 from peeling off from the adhesive material 40. Therefore, according to the power storage device 2A according to the second embodiment, it is possible to secure the storage cell 10 while reducing the amount of adhesive material 40 used.
[0063] Furthermore, the floor panel 4 is formed with a plurality of protrusions 5 that protrude downwardly from the vehicle 1, and a plurality of cushioning members 50 are disposed below each of the protrusions 5. The presence of the protrusions 5 causes the cushioning members 50 to be pressed against the upper case 21, compared to a case without the protrusions 5. This results in the adhesive material 40 located below the cushioning members 50 being pressed more strongly against the storage cells 10. Consequently, even when the amount of adhesive material 40 used is reduced, it is possible to prevent the storage cells 10 from peeling off from the adhesive material 40.
[0064] Furthermore, the cushioning member 50 is formed to extend in the longitudinal direction of the storage cell 10 (the width direction D2 of the vehicle 1). Therefore, the load from the floor panel 4 can be applied to the storage cell 10 located below the cushioning member 50. Therefore, even if the amount of adhesive 40 used is reduced, it is possible to suppress the storage cell 10 from peeling off from the adhesive 40.
