Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A cable connecting structure of a battery pack, the battery pack which is provided in a vehicle, the cable connecting structure includes: a plurality of cable side connectors which are provided at ends of a plurality of cables, respectively, and which are connected to the battery pack; and a plurality of battery pack side connectors to which the cable side connectors are detachably mounted, and which are arranged in parallel along a peripheral direction of a peripheral wall of the battery pack. In a state where the cable side connectors are mounted to the battery pack side connectors, portions of the cables which are respectively withdrawn from the cable side connectors are extended along the peripheral wall.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A cable connecting structure of a battery pack, the battery pack which is provided in a vehicle, the cable connecting structure comprising: a plurality of cable side connectors which are provided at ends of a plurality of cables, respectively, and which are connected to the battery pack; and a plurality of battery pack side connectors to which the cable side connectors are detachably mounted, and which are arranged in parallel along a peripheral direction of a peripheral wall of the battery pack, wherein, in a state where the cable side connectors are mounted to the battery pack side connectors, portions of the cables which are respectively withdrawn from the cable side connectors are extended along the peripheral wall. 2 . The cable connecting structure according to claim 1 , wherein, in a state where the cable side connectors are mounted to the battery pack side connectors, the cables are extended from the cable side connectors, respectively, so as to be parallel to each other, or are extended from the cable side connectors in a direction in which the cables are separated from each other. 3 . The cable connecting structure according to claim 2 , wherein at least one of the battery pack side connectors which are adjacent to each other has an axis inclined with respect to the peripheral wall, in a plan view of the battery pack, and the portion of the cable withdrawn from the cable side connector which is mounted to the battery pack side connector the axis of which is inclined is separated from the peripheral wall, as going away from the battery pack connector the axis of which is inclined. 4 . The cable connecting structure according to claim 2 , wherein the battery pack side connectors have mounting faces to which the cable side connectors are mounted, and the mounting face of one of the battery pack side connectors which are adjacent to each other is positioned more outward of the battery pack than the mounting face of the other battery pack side connector. 5 . The cable connecting structure according to claim 2 , wherein, the battery pack side connectors have mounting faces to which the cable side connectors are mounted, and at least two of the mounting faces of the battery pack side connectors have the same height from the peripheral wall of the battery pack. 6 . The cable connecting structure according to claim 1 , wherein at least two of the cables are respectively connected to a positive terminal and a negative terminal of a charging port of the vehicle which is connected to an external power supply, and two battery pack side connectors to which the cable side connectors of the at least two cables are mounted are disposed on one of a frontward face and a rearward face of the peripheral wall of the battery pack which is closer to the charging port.
