Energy Storage Module Extinguisher Sheet for Thermal Runaway Containment

The patent introduces partition walls between adjacent battery cells to divide the internal space into separate compartments. This segmentation prevents fire from spreading between cells while maintaining high energy density through optimized spatial arrangement. The partition walls create physical barriers that isolate thermal runaway events to individual cell zones.

The patent employs fire-retardant coatings and heat-resistant barrier materials as intermediary substances between battery cells. These intermediary layers act as thermal barriers that slow down heat transfer between adjacent cells, providing critical time for safety mechanisms to activate and preventing rapid fire propagation while allowing close cell spacing.

The patent incorporates pre-positioned fire suppressant reservoirs and automatic suppression systems within the module structure. These systems are pre-configured to immediately release suppressant agents upon detecting thermal runaway conditions, eliminating response delays. The preliminary placement of suppression materials ensures instant activation without requiring external intervention or system startup time.

The patent integrates temperature sensors and thermal monitoring systems that continuously detect heat buildup and provide real-time feedback to the control system. When temperature thresholds are exceeded, the feedback mechanism automatically triggers the fire suppression system, creating a closed-loop response that reacts instantly to fire conditions and adjusts suppression activation based on actual thermal states.

The patent applies fire-retardant coatings and insulation materials only in specific critical zones between battery cells where heat transfer is most likely to occur. Rather than uniformly insulating all surfaces, the solution targets high-risk thermal pathways with localized treatment, maintaining simplicity in non-critical areas while providing protection where needed most.

The patent utilizes composite materials that combine structural support and fire insulation functions in single integrated components. These composite elements provide both mechanical strength for cell spacing and thermal barrier properties, reducing the number of separate parts needed and simplifying assembly while maintaining effective heat prevention capabilities.
