Battery module assembly with novel structure

1. A battery module assembly comprising:

two or more battery modules, each of which comprises two or more plate-shaped battery cells vertically stacked such that electrode leads of the battery cells are arranged in a horizontal direction, each of the battery modules having terminal parts connected to an outside;

a base plate comprising module receiving parts, on tops of which the battery modules are loaded in a state in which electrode terminals of the battery modules are arranged in one direction, the base plate being provided at an outer edge thereof with upwardly bent side walls;

an upper cover plate comprising downwardly bent side walls formed at opposite sides thereof on the basis of the electrode terminals of the battery modules, the upper cover plate being fixed on the base plate to form a top of the battery module assembly;

a plate-shaped assembly cover loaded on tops of the battery modules and coupled to the battery modules in a fastening fashion, the assembly cover fixing a cable; and

an electrically insulative module cover mounted on the electrode leads of the battery cells and fixed to the base plate via a vertically oriented bushing insertion hole and fixed to the plate-shaped assembly cover via protrusions, wherein each protrusion engages a fastening hole of said plate-shaped assembly cover,

wherein the horizontal direction is parallel to a top surface of the base plate, on the top surface where the battery modules are loaded.

2. The battery module assembly according to claim 1 , wherein each of the battery cells is a prismatic secondary battery or a pouch-shaped secondary battery.

3. The battery module assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the pouch-shaped secondary battery is configured to have a structure in which an electrode assembly is mounted in a laminate sheet comprising a resin layer and a metal layer in a sealed state.

4. The battery module assembly according to claim 1 , wherein each of the battery modules is configured such that the battery cells are connected in parallel to each other.

5. The battery module assembly according to claim 4 , wherein the parallel connection between the battery cells is achieved using a ‘ ’-shaped or ‘[’-shaped bus bar,

wherein said bus bar has a direct mechanical connection to electrode terminals of said battery cells.

6. The battery module assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the battery cells are fixed to a cartridge frame, and each of the battery modules is configured to have a structure in which cartridge frames are stacked.

7. The battery module assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the electrically insulative module cover comprises:

a first hook for fixing cables connected to the electrode terminal of the battery module; and

a second hook mounted and fixed to the battery module.

8. The battery module assembly according to claim 7 , wherein the first hook comprises one or more protruding parts for preventing release or rotation of the terminal parts.

9. The battery module assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the electrically insulative module cover further comprises an insulative protection cover for electrically isolating the electrode terminals of each of the battery modules from an outside.

10. The battery module assembly according to claim 9 , wherein the protection cover is provided with one or more third hooks for fixing the electrically insulative module cover.

11. A device comprising a battery module assembly according to claim 1 as a power source.

12. The device according to claim 11 , wherein the device is a power supply for emergency, a power supply for computer rooms, a portable power supply, a power supply for medical facilities, a power supply for fire extinguishing facilities, a power supply for alarm facilities, or a power supply for refuge facilities.
