  • Publication number: 20240063486
    Abstract: A partition member which has a thickness direction and a planar direction orthogonal to the thickness direction and which constitutes a partition between single batteries in the thickness direction or between a single battery and a member other than the single battery, wherein the partition member includes a thermal insulation material, and an auxiliary member which is disposed so as to be adjacent to the thermal insulation material in the planar direction and regulates a degree of contraction of the thermal insulation material in the thickness direction. A ratio of a density of the auxiliary member relative to a density of the thermal insulation material is 0.50 to 6.0.

  • Publication number: 20220006158
    Abstract: A partition member has a thickness direction and a surface direction orthogonal to the thickness direction and partitions between unit batteries constituting an assembled battery in the thickness direction. The partition member comprises an exterior body including at least sealant resin layers and base material layers, and a liquid accommodated in the exterior body. The exterior body has a sealing portion in which the sealant resin layers are overlapped and joined in a region including an outer edge thereof. A width W (mm) of the sealing portion, a circumferential length L (mm) of the sealing portion, an average interval D (mm) between the two base material layers facing each other in the sealing portion, and a weight A (g) of the liquid satisfy Equation 1 below. (L×D)/(W×A)?10.

  • Publication number: 20200287256
    Abstract: A partition member includes an encapsulated body capable of retaining a liquid and an outer package body having an internal space for accommodating the liquid and the encapsulated body in a sealed state. The ratio of a water absorption rate 2 to a water absorption rate 1, [water absorption rate 2]/[water absorption rate 1], is at least 0.4. The water absorption rate 1 indicates the water absorption rate when the encapsulated body is compressed for 1 minute at a pressure of 0.05 kgf/cm2, and the water absorption rate 2 indicates the water absorption rate when the encapsulated body is compressed for 1 minute at a pressure of 5 kgf/cm2.
