The present invention provides a fire extinguishing sheet suitable for productivity, mass production, and large-scale production, wherein the fire extinguishing sheet can be used in places, facilities, structures, etc., where a fire may occur, and has an initial fire extinguishing function. The fire extinguishing sheet according to the present invention contains a fire extinguishing agent that when a predetermined temperature is reached, thermally decomposes to generate a fire extinguishing component.

The present invention relates to a system and a method of detecting swelling of a battery cell, which, when abnormal swelling is generated in a battery cell embedded in a battery pack, rapidly detect the abnormal swelling and control a supply of a power source to the battery pack to be blocked, thereby preventing a structural deformation of the battery cell and the battery pack and life shortening of the battery, and preventing an accident, such as ignition and explosion.

Electrochemical device for storing electrical energy in rectangular geometric cells, narrow stack geometry, according to the above claims wherein for being built from a sturdy housing (4) in the form of a straight rectangular parallelepiped and where hollow metal rods (5) run on the metal substrate (14) of the base (1) and through the through holes (16) of the base (16) and through the through holes (16) of it run hollow metal rods (5) and on each one of them, the positive electrode is inserted followed by a separating element and so on, while the other hollow metal bar (5) is inserted the negative electrode, followed by a separating element and so on forming a “stack” of electrodes (6) which would fit into the base (1) forming the central structure of the device, with the hollow metal rods (5) serving as current collectors. The rectangular narrow stack geometry electrode (6) allows to carry out the pre-metallisation stage necessary to create the SEI, and the subsequent cycle stage in the same device, without reopening it.
