The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows:
in the battery module according to the present invention, since the end surfaces of the battery cells are large surfaces, and the heat of the battery cells is transferred to the heat conductive part through the end surfaces and then is outwardly dissipated through the heat conductive part and the heat dissipation part, the heat dissipation efficiency of the battery module is improved, and thermal runaway of the battery cells is prevented; meanwhile, the heat dissipation plate can also fix the corresponding battery unit, so that dislocation and deformation of the battery unit when the battery unit is impacted are avoided, and the overall structural strength of the battery module is improved.
