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.

A battery module, and a battery pack and a vehicle, each including the battery module. The battery module includes a frame; a plurality of battery cells arranged in the frame; a heat sink in contact with one side of the battery cell; and a cooling fin in contact with the heat sink and in contact with the other side of the battery cell.

A holding apparatus (15) for current and signal conductors of a traction battery of a motor vehicle has a plate-like base body with longitudinal sides (16), transverse ends (17) and a top (18) and bottom (19) extending between the longitudinal sides (16) and transverse ends (17). Elements (20) are arranged on the top (18) and the bottom (19) for guiding and fixing current conductors (12) of the traction battery, and elements (21) are arranged on the other of the top (18) and the bottom (19) for guiding and fixing at least one signal conductor (14) of the traction battery. The base body provides EMC shielding of the signal conductor (14) from the current conductors (12). The plate-like base body has on the opposite longitudinal sides (16) and/or on the opposite transverse sides (17) sections (22) for securing and grounding the holding apparatus on a frame of the motor vehicle.

A power storage module includes an array including power storage devices each having first and second surfaces opposite to each other in a first direction, a first restraint member facing the first surface of each power storage device, and a second restraint member facing the second surface of each power storage device. Dimensions of the power storage devices in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction are larger than respective dimensions of the power storage devices. The power storage devices are arranged in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions. The first restraint member extends in the third direction and restrains the array in the third direction. The second restraint member extends in the third direction and restrains the array in the third direction. At least one of the first and second restraint members has a hole therein. The hole is a recess falling in the first direction or a through-hole passing through the restraint member in the first direction.

A wiring module includes a first flexible printed circuit and a second flexible printed circuit that is separate from the first flexible printed circuit. The first flexible printed circuit and the second flexible printed circuit are arranged so as to be continuous in a first direction and are shaped as a band that extends in the first direction. A connector is mounted to each of the first flexible printed circuit and the second flexible printed circuit. The fitting direction in which the connector mounted to the first flexible printed circuit is fitted to a partner connector is different from the fitting direction in which the connector mounted to the second flexible printed circuit is fitted to a partner connector.
