Abstract: A manufacturing system for a battery pack includes a front-half unit that applies a first pressure to press a stack in a single direction for a certain period of time and a rear-half unit that then causes a restraining member to restrain the stack while applying a second pressure smaller than the first pressure to press the stack in the single direction. The front-half unit includes a front-half pressure application portion that presses the stack and a front-half restriction portion that restricts a position of the stack. The front-half pressure application portion presses the stack with the front-half restriction portion in contact with the stack. The rear-half unit includes a rear-half pressure application portion that presses the stack and a rear-half restriction portion that restricts the position of the stack. The rear-half pressure application portion presses the stack with the front-half or rear-half restriction portion in contact with the stack.

Abstract: When a temperature inside a secondary battery becomes high and a gas pressure inside a battery case increases, an inversion plate is pressed due to the gas pressure so as to project and curve in a projecting manner toward an external terminal board. Due to such a deformation, a load is transmitted to a current interruption piece via a load transmission portion. At this time, due to a pushing-up force of the load transmission portion, a vulnerable breaking portion forming part of a peripheral edge of the current interruption piece breaks, so that the current interruption piece is displaced to bend in a V-shape via a folding portion. As a result, the secondary battery is brought into an unusable state. Such a configuration can attain simplification of a structure to interrupt a current.

Abstract: A battery pack includes battery cells and a spacer arranged between two adjacent battery cells. Each battery cell includes an electrode body and a case. The electrode body includes an upper curved portion, a flat portion, and a lower curved portion. The spacer presses one side wall of the case of one of the adjacent battery cells toward an inner side of the case at a part where the side wall opposes a region from the upper curved portion to the lower curved portion. The spacer forms passages for cooling air between the spacer and the side wall. A first cooling efficiency of the cooling air per unit area at a first opposing portion of the side wall that opposes the upper curved portion is less than a second cooling efficiency per unit area at a second opposing portion of the side wall that opposes the flat portion.

A current-carrying part, which electrically connects a collector terminal of the electrode member with an external electrode terminal, includes a displacement part configured to be displaced outward in response to a rise in an internal pressure of the battery case, the displacement part being connected to at least a part of the collector terminal. When the displacement part is displaced outward in response to the rise in the internal pressure of the battery case, the connection between the displacement part and the collector terminal is disconnected and the current-carrying part is electrically cut off from the collector terminal. In the secondary battery according to the present disclosure, the current-carrying part including the displacement part is disposed in the lid.
