[0002] Currently, most battery cabinet rails are L-shaped. When mounted on the cabinet, only one battery module can be mounted on a pair of rails. The small contact area between the L-shaped rail and the bottom surface of the battery module poses some structural risks in terms of load-bearing capacity and shock resistance, making it unsuitable for full-cabinet transportation scenarios.

[0003] Furthermore, the existing L-shaped guide rails have defects such as small contact surface and unreliable structure, making them unsuitable for assembling dual-cluster battery modules. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This utility model provides a guide rail tray and cabinet frame for battery modules, aiming to solve the defects of existing L-shaped guide rails used in battery cabinets, such as small contact surface, unreliable structure, and unsuitability for assembling dual-cluster battery modules. The guide rail tray and cabinet frame provided by this utility model are used inside a cabinet to support and fix two clusters of battery modules mounted on the same guide rail tray; the structure has good strength and meets the overall shock resistance requirements for transportation.
