- the rigidity of the case 121 can be further improved because, for example, the reinforcing member 122 and the second extending portion 121d of the case 121 are firmly fixed by the eyelet 125.
- the reinforcing member 122 is a flange formed by being refracted or bent along the stacking direction Z at an end portion extending along the direction intersecting the stacking direction Z so as to be separated from the second extending portion 121d. It can be set as the structure provided with the part 122a.
- the rigidity of the case 121 can be further improved because, for example, the end portion of the reinforcing member 122 is configured to easily suppress the deformation and maintain the shape. Furthermore, since the unit cell 110 is restricted from moving in the X direction or the Y direction intersecting the stacking direction Z by the flange portion 122a, the unit cell 110 can be prevented from being displaced due to vibration or the like. .
- the reinforcing member 122 includes a protrusion 122h in a direction toward the unit cell 110 along the stacking direction Z
- the second extending portion 121d is a fitting hole for fitting the protrusion 122h and the like along the stacking direction Z. It can be set as the structure provided with 121i or the fitting hole.
- the fitting hole 121i is formed through the second extending portion 121d.
- the fitting hole corresponds to a hole formed by providing a recess having a predetermined depth in the second extending portion 121d.
- the case 121 that presses the unit cell 110 is pressed in the stacking direction Z with respect to the reinforcing member 122 by fitting the protrusion 122 h of the reinforcing member 122 and the fitting hole 121 i of the case 121 together. It is possible to prevent movement in the X direction and the Y direction intersecting with each other.
- the unit cell 110 includes an insulating member 14 that is stacked on the end of the positive electrode 11 or the negative electrode 12 and prevents an electrical short circuit with the adjacent negative electrode 12 or the positive electrode 11, and the inclined portion 121 c is arranged in the stacking direction Z.
- the thickness along can be made longer than the thickness of the insulating member 14.
- the interference between the portion where the unit cell 110 is expanded along the stacking direction Z due to the insulating member 14 and the portion of the first extending portion 121b of the case 121 is the stack of the inclined portions 121c. It can be avoided by the thickness along the direction Z. Therefore, even if the battery module 100 includes the insulating member 14, it is possible to prevent the length along the stacking direction Z from increasing.
- the unit cell 110 may be configured to include a plurality of unit cells 110 along the stacking direction Z.
- the case 121 can sufficiently maintain the rigidity of the case 121 while sufficiently pressing the plurality of unit cells 110 via the unit cells 110 disposed on the outermost side.

- FIG. 4A is a perspective view showing the main part of the battery module 200.
- FIG. 4B is a perspective view showing a main part of the battery module 300.
- the reinforcing member 222 of the housing 220 includes a fitting portion 222g at the end facing the second extending portion 221d.
- the fitting portion 222g is formed by combining a rectangular concave shape and a convex shape along the Y direction.
- the case 221 includes a second extending portion 221d at an end portion of the reinforcing member 222 facing the fitting portion 222g.
- the second extending portion 221d is formed by combining a rectangular convex shape and a concave shape that are fitted to the fitting portion 222g.
- the battery module 300 is shown in FIG.
- the reinforcing member 322 of the housing 320 includes a fitting portion 322g at the end facing the second extending portion 321d.
- the fitting portion 322g is formed by combining a wavy concave shape and a convex shape along the Y direction.
- the case 321 includes a second extending portion 321d at the end facing the fitting portion 322g of the reinforcing member 322.
- the second extending portion 321d is formed by combining a wavy convex shape and a concave shape that are fitted to the fitting portion 322g.
- the reinforcing member 222 includes one fitting portion 222g formed by combining a concave shape and a convex shape at the end facing the second extending portion 221d.
- the 2nd extension part 221d is provided with the other fitting part 221g formed combining the convex shape and concave shape which fit with the one fitting part 222g.
- the fitting portion 222 g of the reinforcing member 222 and the fitting portion 221 g of the case 221 are fitted in an uneven shape, so that the case 221 intersects the stacking direction Z.
