A battery enclosure for a vehicle chassis comprising a base plate having an upper and lower surface and a plurality of edges; an external support structure with a flange portion on a lower surface thereof and disposed on an upper surface of the base plate to circumscribe the base plate edges; a battery tray with a flange portion extending from an upper surface thereof is disposed on an upper surface of the base plate. The battery tray includes a plurality of raised surface features on the upper surface outlining individual cells, each cell configured to receive at least one battery. A lid is disposed on the flange of the battery tray with the external support structure disposed below the battery tray flange, and extending around the battery tray edges.

A battery enclosure for a vehicle chassis having a base member with raised surface features on the upper surface outlining individual cells, each cell configured to receive at least one battery; a cover member having a plurality of depending surface features on the lower surface which are aligned with the surface features of the base member. The cover member includes a channel formed in the upper surface thereof, aligned with and extending along a length of the depending surface feature disposed on the bottom surface. A lattice support structure is also included which has a plurality of support members extending axially and transversely, wherein the lattice support structure is configured to be at least partially disposed within the channel of the cover member and mounted to the vehicle chassis. The lattice support member providing increased rigidity and a load distribution path for externally applied forces (e.g. crash events) to prevent or inhibit enclosure breakage or puncture.

An automotive high-voltage energy accumulator includes a housing structure; a plurality of battery modules disposed in a housing space of the housing structure, wherein the housing structure closes the housing space at least in a lateral and/or downward manner; and a housing cover that closes the housing space of the housing structure at least in an upward manner. The housing cover has a multi-layered construction and includes a lower metal layer and an upper metal layer. The lower metal layer and the upper metal layer are mutually disposed so as to be substantially vertically spaced apart, define a cover space therebetween, and are fixedly interconnected at peripheries. A plastics core layer substantially fills the cover space and mechanically interconnects the two metal layers.

A solid-state polymer lithium battery pack and a preparation method therefor are provided. The lithium battery pack includes: single batteries (1), connecting sleeve members (2), electric cables (3), a battery box (4) and a pouring sealant, and has functions of power supply, power storage and multiple charging/discharging. The preparation method includes: connecting a plurality of single batteries in series by means of connecting sleeve members (2) to form combined batteries; connecting a plurality of combined batteries in series to form a lithium battery pack; and finally, assembling the lithium battery pack into a battery box (4), filling a pouring sealant inside the battery box by means of a sealant pouring process for fixing the single batteries (1) and internal electric cables (3), and discharging air in the battery box (4), so that a final solid-state polymer lithium battery pack is obtained.

An exemplary traction battery assembly includes, among other things, a first portion of an enclosure, a second portion of the enclosure, and a compression limiter. The first portion is overmolded to the compression limiter. An exemplary method includes, among other things, securing a first portion of an enclosure for a traction battery to a second portion, and limiting compression of the first portion during the securing using a compression limiter. The first portion is overmolded to the compression limiter.
