Publication number: 20260171464Abstract: A battery pack system includes a plurality of battery modules with stacked battery cells. The plurality of battery modules is secured to multiple seating portions in a battery housing. The housing includes a base plate forming its bottom surface, from which multiple transverse members protrude upward, running parallel to each other. A set of longitudinal members intersects these transverse members, creating defined seating portions. Two end-plates are connected to the transverse members, forming parallel side walls. The distance between the end-plates'facing pressing surfaces is precisely adjusted and fixed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2025Publication date: June 18, 2026Applicants: HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY, KIA CORPORATIONInventors: Junyoung Kang, Seok Eun Yoon, Young Hoo Oh
