図1(a)には、底板15からなる第1の搭載部を有し、その上方に設けた水平部12及びこの水平部に必要に応じて連結した中間パネル16からなる第2の搭載部を有する2段構造の保護構造体の例を示す。
第1の搭載部を構成する底板15からは、側壁として垂直パネル(11,13,14)を立設し、その途中側壁部11に、第2の搭載部を構成する水平部12を連結してあり、その拡大図を図1(b)に示す。
側壁は一枚のパネル状の側壁部11で構成してもよいが、本実施例は図1,2に示すように中間に位置する側壁部11の上部に形成した嵌合フランジ状の連結部11fに上部側壁パネル14を嵌合連結し、側壁部11の下部に形成した連結フランジ11gに底板15から立設した下部側壁パネル13を連結固定した3分割構造になっている。
側壁の分割構造や連結構造に制限はない。
FIG. 1A has a first mounting portion made of a bottom plate 15, a horizontal portion 12 provided above the horizontal portion, and a second mounting portion made of an intermediate panel 16 connected to the horizontal portion as needed. An example of a two-stage protective structure having the above is shown.
A vertical panel (11, 13, 14) is erected as a side wall from the bottom plate 15 constituting the first mounting portion, and a horizontal portion 12 constituting the second mounting portion is connected to the side wall portion 11 in the middle thereof. An enlarged view thereof is shown in FIG. 1 (b).
The side wall may be composed of a single panel-shaped side wall portion 11, but in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a fitting flange-shaped connecting portion formed on the upper portion of the side wall portion 11 located in the middle is provided. The upper side wall panel 14 is fitted and connected to 11f, and the lower side wall panel 13 erected from the bottom plate 15 is connected and fixed to the connecting flange 11g formed at the lower part of the side wall portion 11.
There are no restrictions on the split or connected structure of the side walls.

上記側壁は、第1及び第2搭載部の両側に対向して立設してもよいが、本実施例では底板15と中間パネル16とを中空断面形状からなる複数の側パネル17(17a,17b,17c)にて連結した例になっている。
また、図示を省略したが、第2の搭載部の上方はカバー部材で覆う構造例になっていて、このカバー部材は上部側壁パネル14の上端フランジ部14aにて固定することができる。
また、底板15の側壁と直交する両側端部には必要に応じてサブフランジ19a,19bを有し、第2の搭載部の両側端部にもサブフランジ18a,18bを有する側になっているが、これらのサブフランジは無くてもよい。
The side wall may be erected facing both sides of the first and second mounting portions, but in this embodiment, the bottom plate 15 and the intermediate panel 16 are formed by a plurality of side panels 17 (17a, which have a hollow cross-sectional shape. It is an example of connecting in 17b, 17c).
Further, although not shown, the upper part of the second mounting portion is an example of a structure covered with a cover member, and this cover member can be fixed by the upper end flange portion 14a of the upper side wall panel 14.
Further, both end portions orthogonal to the side wall of the bottom plate 15 have sub-flange 19a, 19b as needed, and both end portions of the second mounting portion also have sub-flange 18a, 18b. However, these sub-flange may not be present.

図1(b)にサブフランジ18bを取り外した状態の水平部12と側壁部11との部分拡大図を示す。
側壁部11は、上下方向に配設した複数の中空部11c,11d,11eを有するパネル形状になっている。
中空部は内リブ11bと外リブ11aとの途中を連結リブ11hでつなぐ形状になっているが、保護構造体の内側に向けて形成した中空断面形状からなる水平部12との連結部は次のようになっている。
水平部12は一対の上リブ12bと下リブ12cとの途中を垂直方向のつなぎリブ12dにて複数の水平中空部12aを形成してある。
上リブ12bと下リブ12cの先端側の一部が側壁部11の内リブ11bを貫通している状態になっている。
言い換えれば、この貫通した上リブ12bと下リブ12cの部分で側壁部の中空部を分断し、中空部11cと中空部11dを形成した状態になり、上リブ12bと下リブ12cとの先端側は外リブ11aとなって水平中空部12aを形成した状態になっている。
これにより、第2の搭載部を形成した水平部12に図示を省略した固定ピン等にて二次電池(電池モジュール)Vを取り付けた場合に、その荷重は上リブ12bと外リブ11aとの連結コーナー部を介して伝達される荷重fと下リブ12cと内リブ11bとの連結コーナー部を介して伝達される荷重fとに分散される。
FIG. 1B shows a partially enlarged view of the horizontal portion 12 and the side wall portion 11 with the sub-flange 18b removed.
The side wall portion 11 has a panel shape having a plurality of hollow portions 11c, 11d, 11e arranged in the vertical direction.
The hollow portion has a shape in which the middle of the inner rib 11b and the outer rib 11a is connected by the connecting rib 11h, but the connecting portion with the horizontal portion 12 having a hollow cross-sectional shape formed toward the inside of the protective structure is as follows. It looks like this.
In the horizontal portion 12, a plurality of horizontal hollow portions 12a are formed by connecting ribs 12d in the vertical direction between the pair of upper ribs 12b and lower ribs 12c.
A part of the upper rib 12b and the lower rib 12c on the distal end side penetrates the inner rib 11b of the side wall portion 11.
In other words, the hollow portion of the side wall portion is divided by the penetrating upper rib 12b and lower rib 12c to form the hollow portion 11c and the hollow portion 11d, and the tip side of the upper rib 12b and the lower rib 12c is formed. Is in a state of forming an outer rib 11a and forming a horizontal hollow portion 12a.
As a result, when the secondary battery (battery module) V is attached to the horizontal portion 12 forming the second mounting portion with a fixing pin or the like (not shown), the load is applied to the upper rib 12b and the outer rib 11a. via the connecting corner portions of the load f 1 and the lower rib 12c and the inner rib 11b which is transmitted through the connecting corner portion is dispersed into a load f 2 transmitted.

この作用を図3に示した連結構造と比較する。
図3は、中空断面形状の水平部112と上下方向の中空部を有する側壁部111とを略直角に連結した場合を示す。
このような連結構造にあっては、水平部112に加わる荷重はコーナー部fに応力集中しやすく、この部分への局部的負荷が大きくなってしまう。
これに対して本発明に係る連結構造にあっては、応力がfとfに分散されるので、衝撃等の外部からの負荷に対しても分散効果があるので、搭載物の保護効果が高い。
また、走行中に発生する振動もfとfに分散されて側壁部11に伝達されるので振動耐久性にも優れる。
このような連結構造は、アルミニウム合金等の押出材にて容易に製作できる。
This action is compared with the connected structure shown in FIG.
FIG. 3 shows a case where a horizontal portion 112 having a hollow cross-sectional shape and a side wall portion 111 having a hollow portion in the vertical direction are connected at a substantially right angle.
Such In the such connection structure, the load applied to the horizontal portion 112 stress easily concentrated at the corners f 0, the local load on this portion is increased.
On the other hand, in the connected structure according to the present invention, since the stress is dispersed in f 1 and f 2 , the effect of dispersing stress is also applied to an external load such as an impact, so that the effect of protecting the load is protected. Is high.
Further, the vibration generated during traveling is also dispersed in f 1 and f 2 and transmitted to the side wall portion 11, so that the vibration durability is also excellent.
Such a connecting structure can be easily manufactured by using an extruded material such as an aluminum alloy.
