This patent technology sets a base at the angle between every four batteries, and a contact plate that contacts the batteries in the battery pack slides on the base, and then the contact plate can also be slightly away from the outer wall of the battery. In order to prevent the batteries from being squeezed close to each other when the vehicle collides, a top plate connected by an elastic reset member is provided on the sliding stroke of the contact plate. Then, when the batteries in the battery pack move relative to each other, each battery is squeezed against the contact plate, so that the contact plate applies force to the top plate, and a certain buffer is performed through the elastic reset member connected to the top plate, thereby weakening or even preventing the batteries in the battery pack from being squeezed against each other and damaged when the vehicle collides.
