A dual vaporizer battery device is provided. The device includes a first battery housing having a first end opposite a second end and a second battery housing having a proximal end opposite a distal end. A first battery is disposed within the first battery housing and a second battery is disposed within the second battery housing. The first end is pivotally affixed to the proximal end via a hinge. The first battery housing is selectively movable relative to the second battery housing between a linear configuration and a parallel configuration. The first battery housing is coaxial relative to the second battery housing when in the linear configuration. A connector is disposed on each of the second end and the distal end, wherein each connector removably secures a vaporizer housing thereto, such that each vaporizer housing is in operable communication with each of the first and second batteries.

Shielding articles are disclosed. One shielding article includes a fire retardancy element/fire propagation reduction element, which includes a pair of flexible graphite outer layers and a core, where the flexible graphite outer layers are on opposing sides of the core. The core may include one or more fire retardant elements or insulation materials. Also disclosed are battery packs that include the shielding articles. The shielding articles can be applied in any system that reduced fire propagation would be desirable.

A safety structure for a battery pack assembly includes: an inner layer adapted to be disposed proximate to a plurality of cells of the battery pack assembly, wherein the inner layer defines at least one hollow channel open towards the plurality of cells and configured to vent any of heat, gas, particles, and fire away from selected ones of the plurality of cells; an outer layer adapted to be disposed distal to the plurality of cells of the battery pack assembly; and a resilient layer disposed between the inner layer and the outer layer. The inner layer is a fire-resistant layer comprising a heat-resistant and/or flame-resistant material. The outer layer is a structural layer comprising a substantially rigid material. The resilient layer is adapted to decouple the inner layer from deformation of the outer layer.

Each of a plurality of power storage cells includes an top surface provided with an electrode terminal, a bottom surface opposite to the top surface, and a side surface contiguous to the top surface and the bottom surface. A case includes a main body provided with an opening on the side surface side of the plurality of power storage cells, and a cover provided over the opening. The case has a first inner side surface and a second inner side surface each facing the side surfaces of the plurality of power storage cells. A power storage device includes biasing means for biasing the plurality of power storage cells toward the second inner side surface of the case, the biasing means being provided between the first inner side surface of the case and the plurality of power storage cells.

A conformable battery pack assembly includes an array of individual electrochemical cells electrically connected with one another. The array is surrounded and encapsulated by a flexible outer shell. The array is arranged geometrically so that there are at least three non-parallel bending axes.

When the pressure in the battery case is increased, the gas discharge flow rate is secured sufficiently. This battery case (30) is a battery case in which a battery (2) is housed in a housing (10). The battery case (30) includes a gas discharge mechanism (G). The gas discharge mechanism (G) includes a gas discharge port (51) that opens in a wall plate (43) that covers a periphery of the housing (10), and a lid part (35m). The lid part (35m) is disposed to cover the gas discharge port (51) from inside the wall plate (43), and is fixed on the housing (10) side.

This electronic device comprises: a hinge module; a first housing connected to the hinge module; and a second housing that folds together with the first housing around the hinge module. In a folded state, the electronic device includes: the housings disposed facing each other; and at least one printed circuit board and a battery pack which are disposed in the inner space of the housings. The battery pack includes: a battery cell having a first cell region disposed in the first housing, a second cell region extending from the first cell region and disposed in the second housing through the hinge module, a foldable region connecting the first cell region and the second cell region, a plurality of base material portions stacked so as to extend from the first cell region to the second cell region through the foldable region, and disposed so as to be electrically insulated by separators, and mixture layers applied to one surface or both surfaces of each of the plurality of base material portions; and a PCM unit extending from at least a portion of the battery cell and disposed so as to be electrically connected to the printed circuit board. In the foldable region, the mixture layers may be excluded, and a stacked structure of the plurality of base material portions of different lengths and the separators may be included.
