Battery module with novel structure
First Claim
1. A battery module comprising chargeable and dischargeable battery cells mounted in a module case, whereinthe chargeable and dischargeable battery cells are mounted in the module case in a state in which the chargeable and dischargeable battery cells are stacked in a lateral direction in which electrode terminals are not located,the module case is configured to have a frame structure open at one or more surfaces thereof, the module case comprising a receiving part to mount the chargeable and dischargeable battery cells, the receiving part defining a lower portion of the module case, anda heat dissipation support member to dissipate heat from the chargeable and dischargeable battery cells through thermal conduction based on direct or indirect contact with the chargeable and dischargeable battery cells is mounted in the receiving part, in which the chargeable and dischargeable battery cells are mounted such that the heat dissipation support member is located between the lower portion of the module case and the chargeable and dischargeable battery cells, the heat dissipation support member including a mount having a concavo-convex structure located in the receiving part defining the lower portion of the module case, and the chargeable and dischargeable battery cells are fitted into the concave portions of the concavo-convex structure.
