[3]
Type of secondary battery is now widely used, there are lithium ion batteries, lithium polymer batteries, nickel cadmium batteries, nickel hydrogen batteries, nickel zinc batteries. Operating voltage of this unit secondary battery cells, that is, the unit battery cell is about 2.5V ~ 4.2V. Thus, more than if the required high output voltage by connecting a plurality of battery cells in series and also configure the battery pack. In addition, the parallel connection of a plurality of battery cells in accordance with the charge-discharge capacity required for the battery pack, and also configure the battery pack. Therefore, the number of battery cells included in the battery pack may be variously set according to the output voltage required, or charge-discharge capacity.
[4]
For example, when configuring the battery pack by connecting a plurality of battery cells in series / parallel, constituting the battery pack first configuration a plurality of battery cells comprising the battery module, and using such a plurality of battery modules in addition to other components, this is a general way. That is, the battery modules may be that a plurality of secondary batteries are meant the components connected in series to parallel, and the battery pack, a plurality of battery modules to increase, such as capacity and output means the components are connected in series to parallel.
[5]
On the other hand, the battery pack of such a multi-module battery structure, it is important to easily dissipate heat generated by each battery module. The heat of the battery module, called out by the charge-discharge procedure is not effectively removed, the heat accumulation is taking place as a result deterioration of the battery module to facilitate, in some cases, may cause a fire or explosion. Therefore, the battery pack has a high-output, large-capacity is needed is a cooling device for cooling a battery module that is embedded in it.
[6]
Typically cooling system of the battery pack may in a typical air-cooled and water-cooled, two, the less noise than air-cooled excellent cooling performance reasons, the high water-cooled more affinity. For example water-cooled cooling is brought into contact with a heat sink including a flow passage to flow the cooling water when the battery module or the side is done in such a manner as to absorb heat from the battery modules.
[7]
However, if the case of a battery pack employing liquid cooled heat sink cooling system damage coolant is introduced into the battery module may increase the risk of leakage. Further, even in a water well is made, if the battery module is to be left for a long time inside a sealed battery pack with the case that the cooling water is deceased state humidity in the pack case very high, no potential leakage resulting eopji.
[8]
Further, in the case of an electric vehicle, unexpected operation of the shock and vibration can be applied to the battery pack. In this case, cut off the electrical connection between the battery module, or may cause a deformation of the pack case, which support the battery modules. Therefore, especially for the electric vehicle battery pack has enough durability against external shock and vibration is required. The crash beam (Crash beam) to the solution is also used to increase the mechanical rigidity of the battery pack. The crash beam is installed in a tray constituting a battery pack case it means that the beam shape of the structure to increase the rigidity of the tray. This tray is installed crash beam does not occur becomes high, the impact resistance is deformed to an external impact or vibration easily.
[9]
However, if you install a beam crash, but the mechanical strength of the battery pack better and less much space to mount the battery module. In addition, adding more essential cooling system components such as the heat sink, there is a problem that the low floor area ratio to the energy density of a battery pack that contains it.
