The connection portion is provided at a further outer position in the vehicle width direction than the batteries.
1 . A vehicle body lower part structure, comprising:
a side frame that connects a battery pack which is arranged below an upper member of a vehicle to a side sill which is provided at a further outer position in a vehicle width direction than the battery pack;
a cross member that is provided within the battery pack, is arranged between batteries, and extends in the vehicle width direction;
a connection portion that is provided within the battery pack and connects the cross member to the upper member,
wherein the connection portion is provided at a further outer position in the vehicle width direction than the batteries; and
a battery frame that connects the batteries of the battery pack and extends in a vehicle forward-rearward direction, wherein
at least part of the connection portion is provided at a position aligned in the vehicle forward-rearward direction with the battery frame,
the connection portion comprises a beam section that extends outward in the vehicle width direction,
the beam section is an enlarged width section having a width that is enlarged outward in a width direction toward a downward side,
the side frame comprises a hollow portion in which a hollow cell is formed,
the battery frame is arranged to be separated inward in the vehicle width direction from the hollow portion, and
the enlarged width section extends further outward in the vehicle width direction than an outer end portion in the vehicle width direction of the battery frame.
2 . The vehicle body lower part structure according to claim 1 ,
wherein the connection portion comprises, in addition to the enlarged width section, another enlarged width section having a width that is enlarged inward in the width direction toward the downward side, and
the enlarged width section extends further in the vehicle width direction than the another enlarged width section extends in the vehicle width direction.
3 . The vehicle body lower part structure according to claim 1 ,
wherein an outer end portion in the vehicle width direction of the enlarged width section is arranged to be separated from the hollow portion.
4 . The vehicle body lower part structure according to claim 1 ,
wherein the side frame comprises a first joint flange that is joined to the battery pack, and
the first joint flange is arranged at a further inner side in the vehicle width direction than the outer end portion in the vehicle width direction of the enlarged width section such that a second joint flange that is joined to the battery pack of the battery frame overlaps an upper side in an upward-downward direction of the first joint flange.
5 . The vehicle body lower part structure according to claim 4 ,
wherein the battery frame comprises a protrusion portion that protrudes upward from a bend portion formed on an inner end portion in the vehicle width direction of the second joint flange,
an edge portion on the battery side of the first joint flange extends to the bend portion side, and
the edge portion comprises a first joint section that is joined to the battery pack.
6 . The vehicle body lower part structure according to claim 5 ,
wherein the second joint flange comprises a second joint section that is joined to the battery pack, and
the first joint section is arranged closer to the battery than the second joint section.
7 . The vehicle body lower part structure according to claim 5 ,
wherein the protrusion portion of the battery frame comprises a plurality of recess sections that are joined to the battery pack along a vehicle forward-rearward direction.
8 . The vehicle body lower part structure according to claim 4 ,
wherein the side frame comprises: a horizontal portion that is fixed to a lower portion of the side sill; and a vertical portion that connects the horizontal portion to the first joint flange,
the horizontal portion and the vertical portion are formed as a hollow portion having a substantially L shape in a cross-section that includes a plurality of hollow cells, and
the second joint flange of the battery frame is arranged at a position that is separated inward in the vehicle width direction from the vertical portion.
9 . The vehicle body lower part structure according to claim 8 ,
wherein a lower surface of the horizontal portion is formed such that a thickness of an inner region formed on the vertical portion side is thinner than an outer region formed on an outside in the vehicle width direction.
10 . The vehicle body lower part structure according to claim 8 ,
wherein a lower surface of the horizontal portion is arranged at a lower position than a lower surface of the battery pack,
a lower surface of the vertical portion is formed in an inclination form having an upward gradient toward the first joint flange from the lower surface of the horizontal portion, and
the lower surface of the vertical portion connects the lower surface of the horizontal portion to the first joint flange.
