Patent abstract
A high voltage battery case assembly for a vehicle includes a battery case having a plurality of walls at least partially defining a cavity configured to receive one or more high voltage battery modules, a sacrificial pocket formed on an exterior of the battery case and including a thin-walled section, and an attachment bracket configured to couple between the sacrificial pocket and a body of the vehicle. The thin-walled section is configured to intentionally break away from the sacrificial pocket when the attachment bracket receives an impact load of a predetermined energy level to thereby facilitate protecting the high voltage battery case assembly from the impact load.
