[0035] The rectangular battery cell module frame body 2 formed by the left end plate 201, the right end plate 202, the front side beam plate 203 and the rear side beam plate 204 corresponds to the frame mounting position 101 arranged on the surface of the liquid cooling bottom plate 1. By using this structure, the battery cell module installation cavity can be accurately limited in the heat dissipation area of the liquid cooling bottom plate 1, thereby providing good heat dissipation and cooling for the battery cell module in subsequent work.

[0036] In addition, the front side beam plate 203 and the rear side beam plate 204 are arranged not to be in contact with the liquid cooling bottom plate 1 and form the battery cell module bottom air exchange groove 3, which can better facilitate the gas circulation of the bottom of the battery cell module and further promote heat dissipation.
