    摘要: This application relates to a battery module and a battery pack. The battery module includes a binding member and battery cell assemblies arranged along a horizontal direction, the battery cell assembly including an upper-layer battery cell and a lower-layer battery cell that are stacked along a vertical direction, the upper-layer battery cell and the lower-layer battery cell interconnected and forming a joint; and the binding member covering the joint, located between two adjacent battery cell assemblies, and fixed to the battery cell assemblies. The battery module includes a binding member and a plurality of battery cell assemblies, and the battery cell assembly includes upper-layer and a lower-layer battery cells stacked along a vertical direction. A joint is formed between the upper-layer and lower-layer battery cells and covered by the joint fixed to the battery cell assemblies, swelling of the upper-layer and lower-layer battery cells at the joint is reduced.

    摘要: A power storage device includes: a plurality of power storage modules; a conductive member; a pair of restraint members; and an adhesive member. Each power storage module includes: an overlapping region that overlaps with the pair of restraint members in a stacking direction; and a non-overlapping region that does not overlap with the pair of restraint members in the stacking direction. Each power storage module includes: a direct contact region that is in direct contact with the conductive member; and an indirect contact region that is in contact with the power storage module adjacent to that power storage module or the conductive member, with the adhesive member interposed therebetween. The overlapping region includes the direct contact region, and the non-overlapping region includes the indirect contact region.
