Abstract: A battery pack includes a plurality of battery modules each including one or more battery cells to store and release energy, each battery module further including an intake portion and an exhaust portion, an intake duct including an intake channel and communicating with the intake portion of each of the plurality of battery modules, and an exhaust duct including an exhaust channel and communicating with the exhaust portion of each of the plurality of battery modules. Each of the plurality of battery modules further includes an opening/closing member configured to close the intake portion when internal pressure increases.

Abstract: A battery pack is configured to improve safety by effectively suppressing heat transfer between battery modules in the present disclosure. A battery pack includes a plurality of battery modules each having one or more battery cells, configured to store and release energy, and stacked in at least one direction; a pack case provided on at least one side of the plurality of battery modules, covering at least a portion of the outside of the plurality of battery modules, and having one or more openings formed therein; and a melting member provided in the opening of the pack case to seal the opening and configured to open the opening by being melted by heat generated from one or more battery modules among the plurality of battery modules.

Abstract: A battery rack includes a plurality of battery modules, each including at least one battery cell, wherein each battery module has at least one venting hole; a rack case accommodating the plurality of battery modules; and a plurality of support brackets disposed in the rack case such that each support bracket supports each battery module and is in communication with the at least one venting hole.

Abstract: A battery module ac includes a cell stack in which a plurality of battery cells are vertically stacked; a module housing including a base plate supporting the cell stack, and a pair of side plates covering both side portions of the cell stack and each including a spark direction changing portion formed by bending an end portion of the side plate in a longitudinal direction of the side plate toward the cell stack; and a bus bar frame assembly covering an opening portion formed on a side of the module housing in a longitudinal direction of the module housing, the bus bar frame assembly including a bus bar frame coupled to a side of the cells tack in a longitudinal direction of the cell stack and a bus bar located on the bus bar frame and coupled to an electrode lead of the battery cell.

Abstract: A battery pack includes a sub-pack including a plurality of battery modules that are located adjacent to one another; a duct coupled to a side of the sub-pack in a width direction of the sub-pack; and a duct cover covering a duct opening portion formed on a side of the duct in a longitudinal direction of the duct, the duct cover including a filter having a mesh structure.

Abstract: An ultrasound system and a method of forming an ultrasound image by selectively extracting ultrasound data necessary for forming the ultrasound image from stored ultrasound data are disclosed. In one embodiment, an ultrasound system includes a storage unit configured to store ultrasound data acquired from an object; and a processor configured to selectively extract ultrasound data necessary for forming a target ultrasound image from the ultrasound data stored in the storage unit, and to form the target ultrasound image by using the extracted ultrasound data.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an ultrasound system for providing ultrasound images in a duplex mode. The ultrasound system comprises a transmission/reception unit for alternately transmitting a first ultrasound beam and a second ultrasound beam to a target object. The first and second ultrasound beams are transmitted for first and second time durations, respectively. The ultrasound system further comprises an image processing unit for forming a first diagnostic mode image based on echoes of the first ultrasound beam and a second diagnostic mode image containing a gap corresponding to the first time duration based on echoes of the second ultrasound beam. The image processing unit is further configured to perform gap filling based on edge points of the second diagnostic mode image to form a second diagnostic image with the gap removed.

Abstract: There is disclosed an embodiment for providing a three dimensional color Doppler image. An ultrasound data acquisition unit may transmit and receive ultrasound signals to and from a target object to output ultrasound data. A processor may form Doppler signals including power information of the target object and at least one of direction information and velocity information of the target object by using the ultrasound data. The processor may further form a three dimensional Doppler mode image representing the power information and at least one of the direction information and the velocity information by using the Doppler signals.
