Abstract:
An outer casing material for a battery is provided which is constituted by laminating an outer layer that includes a heat-resistant resin film, a metal foil layer, and an inner layer that includes a thermoplastic resin film, wherein a melt flow rate of the inner layer is in a range of greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10.
Abstract:
An electric storage cell has an electric storage element and a covering body. The covering body houses the electric storage element and has a metal layer with a first principal face on the electric storage element side and a second principal face on the opposite side, an internal resin layer made of resin laminated onto the first principal face, and an external resin layer made of resin laminated onto the second principal face, with a groove part formed on the second principal face side of the metal layer. The above structures provides a highly reliable electric storage cell, covering film, and electric storage module capable of releasing the rising internal pressure safely in the event of abnormality.
Abstract:
A battery includes a pouch type case formed of a flexible material and the case has a bottom with a recess portion and a protrusion portion, an electrode assembly within the case, and a support member coupled to the recess portion and to the protrusion portion at the bottom of the case. The support member fixes shapes of the recess portion and the protrusion portion, and the support member is coupled to an outside of the case at the bottom of the case.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a battery pack including an electrically insulative pack case. The battery pack includes a plate-shaped battery cell having an anode terminal and a cathode terminal formed at one side thereof including a sealed surplus portion, the battery cell being formed to have a planar quadrangular structure, a protection circuit module (PCM) electrically connected to the electrode terminals of the battery cell to control operation of the battery pack, the PCM being loaded on the sealed surplus portion of the battery cell, and a pack case applied to the sealed surplus portion of the battery cell, the PCM, and opposite sides of the battery cell in a thermally molten state and solidified, the pack case being configured to have a structure to cover the sealed surplus portion of the battery cell, the PCM, and the opposite sides of the battery cell in a state in which the top and bottom of the battery cell are open.
