A battery module has a battery cell stack containing a plurality of battery cells, a busbar frame connected to the battery cell stack and containing a busbar, and a cover plate covering the battery cell stack and the busbar frame, wherein a cooling flow path portion through which an external air for cooling inflows or outflows is formed between the cover plate and the battery cell stack. A thermal expansion member is formed in the cooling flow path portion, and wherein the thermal expansion member includes a first thermal expansion member located on a side opposite to one side where the busbar is located on the basis of the cooling flow path portion.

A sleeve assembly for poured concrete decks has a tubular sleeve connected to a base flange by stiffeners or an optional base wall. An intumescent ring and fire ring plate are fastened to the base flange. The stiffeners and optional base wall are configured so concrete passes between the stiffeners to entrain a fire ring plate and ring of intumescent material in the concrete by passing through a gap between the base wall and the sleeve or through open windows in the base wall to entrain the base wall when it is present.

A fire protection device is useful for sealing through-openings in wall or ceiling elements made of wood or a similar material, in particular for sealing line or pipe feedthroughs. The fire protection device has a main body and at least one expansion body which is attached to an end face of the main body and contains an intumescent material. Also useful is a fire protection assembly.

A composite material, a method for the production thereof, and a fire protection element containing the composite material can be utilized for the protection of passage openings in components in the event of fire, such as building parts, through which conduits are guided. The composite material can be also used as a fire protection element for sealing passage openings and/or for joints in components.

A system for storing a hazardous product including a housing unit defining a product opening and a product door coupled to the housing unit adjacent to the product opening, wherein the product door is configured to form a seal with the housing unit about the product opening in response to a thermal event.

A firestop collar (10) for sealing of openings, especially of line penetrations (12), that pass through walls (11) or ceilings has a frame (16) and a block (20) of optionally intumescent material disposed therein, and is characterized in that an intumescent inlay (22) is disposed between the block (20) and the frame (16).

A fire protection element for sealing a combustible body, which penetrates an opening in a wall or ceiling, in the event of a fire, contains a fire protection insert and a movement device which acts on the fire protection insert, the fire protection insert being arranged so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction of the opening.

Fire block devices for application to a wall component, a wall component with a fire block device and wall assemblies including the same. The fire-block device can be a wall component that includes a fire-resistant material strip that expands in response to sufficient heat to create a fire-resistant barrier. In some applications, the fire-block wall component is positioned to extend lengthwise along and across a gap between wallboard members. The fire-block wall component may have a central portion and a pair of side portions extending in opposite directions from the central portion. The fire-resistant material may be positioned on the central portion of the fire-block device. The central portion may be positioned within the gap such that the fire-resistant material expands in response to sufficient heat to create a fire-resistant barrier.

A fire damper for an air distribution system includes a body defining a flow path and a closure means adapted to close the flow path when a temperature within the flow path exceeds a predetermined maximum temperature. A first flange is fixed to the body and a mounting means comprising a second flange is slidably engageable with and removable from the body. The mounting means comprises securing means for securing the mounting means to the body such that a building element through which the fire damper extends, in use, can be clamped between the first and second flanges. A flexible insulating sleeve configured for use with a fire damper, and a method of installing a fire damper, are also disclosed.

A firestop collar (10) for sealing of openings, especially of line penetrations (12), that pass through walls (11) or ceilings has a frame (16) and a block (20) of optionally intumescent material disposed therein, and is characterized in that an intumescent inlay (22) is disposed between the block (20) and the frame (16).
