AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, conventional battery modules with an air-cooled structure have the problem that high-temperature gas cannot escape smoothly from the battery module
In this case, the thermal runaway of any one battery cell inside the battery module may propagate to the adjacent battery cells inside the battery module, which may cause the entire battery module to explode, thus causing great damage
[0008] In addition, when a flame is generated inside a conventional battery module having an air cooling structure, if the internal flame leaks to the outside, there is an increased risk of the fire being transferred to the surrounding battery modules

Abstract

A battery module according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: battery cells; a module case for accommodating the battery cells and having an inner cooling flow path on both sides of the battery cells; venting openings provided on both lateral surfaces of the module case; sheet members which are mounted on both lateral surfaces of the module case, so as to cover the venting openings, and melt at a predetermined temperature or higher to open the venting openings; and barrier brackets positioned a predetermined distance away from the sheet members and mounted on the inner walls of both lateral surfaces of the module case.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a battery module and a battery rack and an energy storage system including the battery module. [0002] This application claims priority from Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0136958 filed in Korea on October 30, 2019, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] Secondary batteries are highly suitable for various products and exhibit excellent electrical properties such as high energy density, so secondary batteries are commonly used not only in portable devices but also in electric vehicles (EV) or Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV). Since the secondary battery can greatly reduce the use of fossil fuels and does not generate by-products during energy consumption, the secondary battery has attracted attention as a new energy source for improving environmental friendliness and energy efficiency. [0004] Currently widely used secondary batteries include lithium-ion batte...
