Patent number: 9893395Abstract: The invention relates to a battery cooling structure for cooling a battery mounted in a vehicle. This battery cooling structure includes a battery pack (20) within which the battery is housed in an internal space; an air supplying device (26) that is configured to send cooling air to the battery pack (20); and an air exhausting device (30) is configured to discharge exhaust air from the battery pack (20). The battery pack (20) is arranged under a rear seat (10) of the vehicle. An exhaust vent (54) of the air exhausting device 30) is provided on a floor surface in a rearward space behind the rear seat (10) in the vehicle, and discharges the exhaust air from the battery pack (20) upward into the rearward space from the exhaust vent (54) provided in the floor surface.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2014Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Takenori Tsuchiya, Shogo Yoneda, Ryuichi Oomuta, Tetsuo Watanabe, Yosuke Maruta
