A lightweight structure for a vehicle or aircraft includes a longitudinal member with a base bridge, having a first collective conductor and a transversal member with a central bridge and transversal bridge with a first connection conductor extending on a first surface of the transversal bridge and on a second surface of the transversal bridge oriented opposite the first surface, and a second connection conductor extending separately from the first connection conductor. The transversal member is connected to the base bridge at the first end section so the first connection conductor contacts the first collective conductor of the base bridge. The lightweight structure includes a carbon fiber structural battery connected with the central bridge of the transversal member, a first collector of the carbon fiber structural battery electrically connected to the first or second connection conductor and a second collector of the carbon fiber structural battery electrically connected to the other connection conductor.

This battery insulation structure includes a double-walled insulating container 1 including an insulating container main body 2 in which an insulating space S1 is provided between an inner wall 21 and an outer wall 22, and an insulating lid 3 in which an insulating space S2 is provided between an inner lid 31 and an outer lid 32, and a battery body 4 housed in the insulating container 1, wherein the battery body 4 is arranged to be spaced apart from the inner wall 21 of the insulating container main body 2 and the inner lid 31 of the insulating lid 3. This battery insulation structure can be adapted to both a very low-temperature external environment and a very high-temperature external environment, and can reduce the influence of the temperature of the external environment on the batter as much as possible.
