Claim Text:
1. A high thermal conductivity battery assembly, comprising: a metal case, having a hollow accommodation cavity formed therein; a plurality of battery cells, the plurality of battery cells arranged in a first row of battery cells and a second row of battery cells, the first row and the second row installed parallel to one another within the metal case, each of the battery cells having two electrodes with a first electrode of each of the plurality of battery cells in the first row and the second row being connected in a thermally conductive manner to the metal case; and a common electrode extending along a central portion of the hollow accommodation cavity for connection to a second electrode of each of the battery cells, wherein the second electrode of each of the battery cells of the first row are opposed to a first surface of the common electrode and wherein the second electrode of each of the battery cells of the second row are opposed to a second surface of the common electrode wherein the first electrode of each of the plurality of battery cells in the first row and the second row are connected to a second common electrode and wherein a thermally conductive flexible metal gasket is positioned between the second common electrode and the metal case; wherein the metal case includes an exterior side facing away from the hollow accommodation cavity and an interior side facing toward the hollow accommodation cavity, and wherein each of the battery cells has an axial direction, and wherein a plurality of fixation troughs are formed on the metal case from the interior side toward the exterior side in a manner extending along the axial directions of the respective battery cells.
