Abstract:
A battery manufacturing apparatus includes a binding member for bounding a battery stack and a fluid supplying part for blowing cooling fluid onto the bound battery stack. The binding member includes a first both-side part for bounding batteries from both sides by applying a load thereon in a first direction in which the batteries are arranged, and a second both-side part to be placed on both sides of the batteries to face both side surfaces of the batteries in a second direction different from the first direction. The binding member is formed with apertures through which the cooling fluid flows outward in the second direction. The fluid supplying part includes a first discharging part and a second discharging part for discharging the cooling fluid from both sides in a third direction different from both the first direction and the second direction toward the battery stack bound by the binding member.
