Abstract

A method for manufacturing an electric vehicle battery case includes: preparing a frame configured to define a through space inside and a flat plate made of resin; superposing and disposing the flat plate on the frame; and applying pressure to the flat plate from an opposite side from the frame to press the flat plate against the frame to cause the flat plate to swell in the through space, thereby deforming the flat plate into a tray having a bathtub shape including a bottom wall and a peripheral wall provided at a peripheral edge of the bottom wall and configured to define an opening portion, and joining by press-fitting the tray to the frame.
