On the opposite end walls (8) of a flat, prismatic battery case (2) of a battery module (1) where electrode terminals (12) are attached, protruding components (26) are formed such as to protrude further than the electrode terminals. Terminal holes (10) are formed in the end walls in which the electrode terminals are fitted, and the thickness of the end walls of the integral battery case in the vicinity of the terminal holes is not the same on both sides of each of the terminal holes. Also, one or a plurality of vertical and horizontal ribs are formed on the end walls between the electrode terminals and the protruding components. IMAGE IMAGE
