Battery case

Abstract

There is provided a battery case which is advantageous in enhancing durability of cables or connectors which are arranged inside and outside the battery case. When a motor-driven vehicle 10 comes into collision, in case where structural members such as an engine 14 or a fuel tank 16 existing adjacent to a battery case 40 are displaced so as to approach a tray 50, shorter outer peripheral edges 5602 are butted against these structural members, and shorter side walls 5802 are also butted against the structural members. Therefore, triangular spaces S are secured between the structural members and the tray 50. As the results, it is possible to prevent the structural members from exerting constrained forces on the cables or the connectors, and durability of the cables and connectors can be advantageously enhanced.
