BATTERY-MODULE PROTECTION STRUCTURE

A battery-module protection structure is configured to protect a battery module accommodated within a vehicle frame of a vehicle from an external impact. The battery-module protection structure includes a rail disposed within the vehicle frame, a pedestal securing the battery module and secured to the rail by using a securing member, and the vehicle frame serving as a housing of the battery module. The pedestal is configured such that, in a case where the vehicle receives the external impact and the securing member breaks, the pedestal moves in an inner direction of the vehicle along the rail while securing the battery module.
