Electric work vehicle

An electric work vehicle comprising:

• a battery housing including a first battery housing portion;
• an air cooling system;
• and
• a duct;
• wherein
• the battery housing includes a plurality of battery housing module compartments to house a plurality of battery modules;
• the air cooling system includes a first evaporator and a second evaporator;
• the air cooling system includes a first warm air path and a second warm air path;
• the first warm air path fluidly connects the first battery housing portion to the first evaporator to exhaust first warm air from the first battery housing portion to the first evaporator;
• the second warm air path fluidly connects the first battery housing portion to the second evaporator to exhaust second warm air from the first battery housing portion to the second evaporator;
• the first battery housing portion includes a first opening that connects the first battery housing portion to the first warm air path;
• the first battery housing portion includes a second opening that connects the first battery housing portion to the second warm air path;
• the first opening and the second opening are fluidly connected to a same battery housing module compartment;
• the duct is attached to the same battery housing module compartment to which the first opening and the second opening are fluidly connected;
• the duct includes a first end attached to the same battery housing module compartment and a second end opposite to the first end;
• the second end of the duct faces a rearward direction and/or a downward direction;
• the second opening is located in a lateral side surface of the first battery housing portion such that the second warm air flows from the first battery housing portion through the second opening in a lateral direction of the electric work vehicle;
• and
• the second warm air path includes a second duct that directs the second warm air from the first battery housing portion in a rearward direction.
