(JP10255745-A)      The battery assembly consists of a number of battery modules (16) which are incorporated in a battery case (10) with fixed bulkheads (14) and intermediate bulkheads (20). The modules pass through battery holding holes (18) and battery inserting holes (22) in the bulkheads. The connecting section of the batteries (12) constituting each module (16) are held and supported by the holding holes of the fixed bulkheads. The batteries can be cooled or warmed by blocking the flow of a fluid which flows upward from the bottom of the battery casing. The flow is adjusted with tuning projections (38) or adjusting the cross-sectional area of the flow passage.    ADVANTAGE -   Batteries can be cooled or warmed efficiently regardless of their vertical position. Reduces number of parts and manufacturing time.
