A battery pack temperature regulating apparatus comprising: an evaporator configured to cool air inside a battery casing accommodating a battery therein used for driving a vehicle;an evaporator casing accommodating the evaporator therein;an opening provided on the evaporator casing and configured to function as a passage of air passed through the evaporator;a wall extending from the evaporator casing and surrounding the opening;at least one nail extending from the wall toward the opening, the at least one nail having a tip protruding towards a center of the opening from an end of the at least one nail;a support extending over the opening in a direction traversing a passage of air;a duct extending from the evaporator casing to the battery; anda heater placed in a space surrounded by the wall and attached to the evaporator casing, the heater being placed on the support and sandwiched between the tip and the support, the heater being configured to heat the air inside the battery casing. 2. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the opening is provided on an upper face section of the evaporator casing, andthe duct is attached to the upper face section. 3. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the heater comprises a rib-shaped guide extending therefrom in a width direction of the heater, andthe guide fits into a groove formed in the wall of the evaporator casing. 4. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the evaporator casing comprises a plurality of supports extending over the opening in a direction transversing a passage of the air. 5. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the supports are formed in a U shape comprising a lower support configured to be in contact with a lower face section of the heater, and a pair of side supports configured to be in contact with side sections of the heater. 6. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising: a pair of nails including the at least one nail, the pair of nails extends alongside sections of the heater, and being elastically deformable in a direction such that the nails separate from each other,wherein, each of the pair of nails comprises an arm configured to apply an elastic force to side sections of the heater so as to clamp the heater, and the tip protrudes from the arm toward each other so as to lock the heater. 7. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 1, wherein conduits configured to direct a coolant inside the evaporator casing, are received in the evaporator casing while being aligned with the evaporator in a horizontal direction,the evaporator is configured to cool the air inside the battery casing by transferring heat between the coolant and air within the evaporator casing, andthe heater is located directly above locations where the conduits are located. 8. A battery pack temperature regulating apparatus comprising: an evaporator configured to cool air inside a battery casing accommodating a battery therein used for driving a vehicle;an evaporator casing accommodating the evaporator therein;a duct extending from the evaporator casing to the battery;an opening provided on the evaporator casing and configured to function as a passage of air passed through the evaporator, anda wall extending from the evaporator casing, surrounding the opening, and defining a space for accommodating a heater therein at a position where the evaporator casing and the duct are attached to each other,wherein the duct surrounds a perimeter of the heater and the wall from outside. 9. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the evaporator casing comprises a plurality of supports for placing the heater thereon, the supports extending over the opening in a direction transversing a passage of the air. 10. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 9, wherein the supports are formed in a U shape comprising a lower support configured to be in contact with a lower face section of the heater, and a pair of side supports configured to be in contact with side sections of the heater. 11. A battery pack temperature regulating apparatus comprising: an evaporator configured to cool air inside a battery casing accommodating a battery therein used for driving a vehicle;an evaporator casing accommodating the evaporator therein;a heater attached to the evaporator casing and configured to heat the air inside the battery casing; anda duct extending from the evaporator casing to the battery, is attached to an upper horizontal surface of the evaporator casing,wherein the evaporator casing defines an opening in the upper horizontal surface thereof and has a wall that extends in a vertical direction from the upper horizontal surface of the evaporator casing and surrounds the opening,wherein the heater is provided at a position higher than the evaporator, andwherein the duct surrounds a perimeter of the heater and the wall from outside. 12. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the tip is provided offset from the support in a longitudinal direction of the opening. 13. The battery pack temperature regulating apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the wall has a pair of opposing wall surfaces, andone end of the support is connected to one of the pair of opposing wall surfaces, andanother end of the support is connected to the other one of the pair of opposing wall surfaces.
