Vehicle battery pack support device
A vehicle battery pack support device applicable to various classes of vehicles and allowing weight reduction and cost reduction. The vehicle battery pack support device suspends a battery pack at a side rail constituting a ladder frame of a vehicle and includes a frame-side bracket secured by bolts to an outer side face of the side rail at a plurality of bolt fastening parts thereof arrayed in a grid arrangement. An elastic coupling part elastically couples the battery pack and the frame-side bracket. A spacer is interposed between the outer side face of the side rail and the frame-side bracket. The spacer includes a plurality of columnar members corresponding to the plurality of bolt fastening parts and a connecting part that connects the plurality of columnar members.
1. A vehicle battery pack support device for suspending a battery pack at a side rail constituting a ladder frame of a vehicle, comprising:
a frame-side bracket securable by bolts to an outer side face of the side rail at a plurality of bolt fastening parts of the outer side face of the side rail which the plurality of bolt fastening parts are arrayed in a grid arrangement;
an elastic coupling part, wherein the battery pack and the frame-side bracket are elastically coupleable by the elastic coupling part; and
a spacer interposable between the outer side face of the side rail and the frame-side bracket,
wherein the spacer has a lower extension in a vehicle height direction, wherein the lower extension extends downward further than a bottom surface of the side rail in the vehicle height direction when the spacer is interposed between the outer side face of the side rail and the frame-side bracket.
