Battery Module and Battery Pack Having the Same
A battery module includes: a plurality of battery cells; and an insulating cover disposed on one side of the plurality of battery cells, the insulating cover comprising a venting guide configured to emit flame or gas occurring in one or more of the plurality of battery cell.
BATTERY PACK
A battery pack includes a lower plate on which one or more cell assemblies are disposed, one or more support frames coupled to the lower plate, and one or more reinforcing members coupled to one side of the support frame to form a venting path. The reinforcing member includes a material different from a material of the support frame.
BATTERY PACK HOUSING
Battery packs according to some embodiments of the present technology may include a first end beam and a second end beam. The battery packs may include a first side beam and a second side beam each extending between the first end beam and the second end beam. The battery packs may include a base. The first end beam, the second end beam, the first side beam, the second side beam, and the base may be welded along each interface between each component. The battery packs may include a plurality of battery cells disposed between the first side beam and the second side beam. Each battery cell of the plurality of battery cells may be separated from an adjacent battery cell by an interface material. The battery packs may include a lid coupled with a surface of each battery cell of the plurality of battery cells facing the lid.
BATTERY MODULE THERMAL ISOLATION
Systems and methods are presented herein for isolating individual battery modules of a battery container in response to a thermal runaway event using intumescent material. A pair of opposing side walls are connected by crossmembers which at least partially define bays and/or enclosures for battery modules. A gap resides between two of the bays and/or enclosures and intumescent material is applied proximate to the gap. The intumescent material is configured to expand when exposed to heat. When a thermal runaway event is caused by the operation of a battery module within an enclosure defined by the crossmembers, the intumescent material expands to at least partially seal each bay and/or enclosure to isolate the individual battery module causing the thermal runaway event and prevent the spread of the heat to battery modules in other bays and/or enclosures.
