Problems solved by technology

[0007] First, when the internal pressure of the container rapidly rises due to the gas generated in the battery cell(s), it is difficult to quickly reduce the internal pressure of the container by discharging the gas through the gas discharge pipe
[0008] Second, the pressure resistance of the container needs to be increased, so the size and weight of the power storage device may need to be increased

[0086] The following will refer to Figure 6 The power storage device 101 of the second embodiment will be described. Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view of the power storage device 101, in which the same constituent elements as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals.

[0087] A pressure safety chamber (second container) 51 is fixed on the upper surface of the case cover 14 . The pressure safety chamber 51 is connected to the battery case 13 via the rupture valve 41 of the container. Examples of materials for the pressure safety chamber 51 include metal materials such as stainless steel having high thermal conductivity. The pressure resistance of the pressure safety chamber 51 is set to be the same as that of the battery case 13 .

[0088] As in the case of the first embodiment, the gas discharge pipe 15 is provided with a separation labyrinth chamber 17 .

Abstract

An electricity storage device (1) has an electricity storage unit (12) and a first container (13) in which the electricity storage unit (12) is contained, wherein, when an electricity storage unit abnormality occurs in which gas is produced in the electricity storage unit (12), the gas is- discharged from the electricity storage unit (12) into the first container (13). The electricity storage device (1) is characterized by including: a first discharging channel (15) for discharging the gas in the first container (13) into the outside of a vehicle; and a second discharging channel (13b) for discharging the gas in the first container (13) into a second container (16).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electrical storage device in which a container accommodates an electrical storage unit and a coolant for cooling the electrical storage unit. Background technique [0002] In recent years, electric vehicles such as electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles have been actively developed. Secondary batteries excellent in performance, reliability, and safety are increasingly required to be used as a driving power source or an auxiliary power source for such electric vehicles. [0003] In the field of electric vehicles, a driving power source or an auxiliary power source is required to have a high energy density. As an example of such a power source, there is an electric storage device having a container containing a battery pack in which a plurality of battery cells are connected in series or in parallel, and a coolant for cooling the battery pack. cool down. The container includes a container body and a top cover, the up...
