The invention discloses a horizontal current aluminum electrolytic bath. The aluminum electrolytic bath comprises a melting bath part and an electrode part, wherein the melting bath part consists of a steel bath shell(5) and fire proof and heat proof materials(10); the upper end of the bath shell(5) adopts an open type structure; while the electrode part consists of a cathode electrode part and an anode electrode part, wherein the cathode electrode part consists of a cathode electrode(6), a cathode electrically conductive pole(4) and a cathode bus(2) applied to discharge electric current, and the anode electrode part consists of an anode electrode(7), an anode electrically conductive pole(3) and an anode bus(1) applied to charge electric current; the electrode part are hanged in the bath shell(5) by a support steel beam, and a liquid electrolyte layer (8) is arranged between the cathode electrode(6) and the anode electrode(7); electrolytic currents horizontally enter the corresponding side face of the cathode
