Assembled battery

摘要

The present specification discloses a technology for protecting a portion where corrosion may occur in the assembled battery. An assembled battery includes a plurality of battery packs. Each of the battery packs includes a housing with an opening at a top thereof, a cover plate, and a relief valve. The cover plate is welded at the opening which seals the housing. The relief valve is provided on the cover plate. The assembled battery further includes an exhaust cover and an insulating sheet. The exhaust cover covers the relief valve of each of the battery packs, and guides, toward the outside of the assembled battery, an internal gas that comes out of the relief valves. The insulating sheet may cover a portion of a welded line between the housing and the cover plate of each battery pack, and the portion faces the exhaust cover.

主权项

1. An assembled battery comprising:
battery packs arranged in a predetermined direction, wherein each of the battery packs comprises:
a housing with an opening at a top of the housing;a cover plate welded at the opening and sealing the housing; anda relief valve provided on the cover plate, and configured to open when an internal pressure of the housing increases; an exhaust cover extending along the predetermined direction and covering the relief valve of each of the battery packs; and an insulant covering the relief valve and a portion of a welded line between the housing and the cover plate of each of the battery packs, the portion facing the exhaust cover, the insulant being configured to break at a same time as the relief valve breaks due to an increase of the internal pressure of the housing.
