One-step mould metal pattern 35 can improve the heat conductivity at the position of laying temperature fuse 10 by form the fixed part 42 of its integral body or counterdie 36 with the good material of heat conductivity (for example aluminium alloy).
One-step mould metal pattern 35 and secondary mould pressing metal pattern 46 are at resin filled object thing 7 or middle charged position of finishing product 8, corresponding position such as positive conductor plate 4, negative conductor plate 5, external connection terminals 6, calibrating terminal 30 for example, form insulating barrier, be molded as short circuit and electric leakage to prevent charged position contacting metal.Insulating barrier can be made the metal pattern that heat conductivity is good and have insulating properties by carry out alumite, fluororesin processing at the aluminum metal pattern.
In the above-mentioned explanation, be taken as with heat Insulation film the temperature fuse heat shielding is fallen the structure of shaping resin, be illustrated.Yet, can become to cover temperature fuse by the conductor configurations that is connected electrical connection secondary cell and circuit board, replace the heat Insulation film heat shielding to fall shaping resin.
More than the temperature fuse 10 in Shuo Ming the structure can change the PTC element into.As everyone knows, PTC element resistance value under the normal temperature state is small, but temperature is when being elevated to set point of temperature, resistance value increases severely, the current value of restricted circulation at a dash, thereby when the super-high-current that circulation short circuit etc. causes, itself generates heat, and resistance value is increased severely, and super-high-current is limited.Again configuration with the secondary cell thermal coupling time, can be to the abnormal temperature rising induction heat of secondary cell 2, resistance value is increased, restriction becomes the electric current in abnormal temperature rising source at a dash, thus temperature tops out.
Under the situation that adopts this PTC element, resin is filled direct contact pressure resin when being shaped, and then may destroy its function.Therefore, identical during with temperature fuse 10, also need heat shield structure.
Said structure crowd's temperature fuse 10 also can change the double-metal sheet type radiator valve into.Pilotherm is a kind of element, 2 kinds of different metals of the adhesion heat coefficient of expansion wherein, form movable contact, when temperature is elevated to set point of temperature, the deformation that coefficient of thermal expansion differences is brought disconnects movable contact, cuts off electric current, thereby when flowing through the super-high-current that short circuit etc. causes, the temperature that causes of itself generating heat raises, and makes failure of current.When disposing,, cut off the battery current that becomes abnormal temperature rising source, temperature is topped out secondary cell 2 abnormal temperature rising induction heat with secondary cell 2 thermal couplings.
Adopting under the situation of this double-metal sheet type radiator valve, resin is filled direct contact pressure resin when being shaped, and then may produce harmful effect to its function because of temperature shock etc.Therefore, identical during with temperature fuse 10, heat shield structure preferably is set.By covering with heat Insulation film, further improve thermal insulation, can avoid thermal impact more reliably to inner bimetal leaf element.
Adopt when being covered the double-metal sheet type radiator valve of outer dress with the adiabatic resin of external application the heat in the time of can masking ester moulding by monomer with the position of secondary cell thermal coupling; At this moment do not need heat Insulation film.
These thermal induction elements can be used in combination the different element of design temperature according to design.
Except that with the thermal induction element of secondary cell 2 thermal couplings, circuit board 3 is possessed form the line image fuse of bringing into play the non-recovery formula failure of current function of cutting off electric current when surpassing the rated current value and the element that has multiple electric current restriction/cut-out function, thereby the reliability of battery pack is greatly improved.In this structure, identical with the PTC element with temperature fuse 10, the line image fuse also is subjected to the thermal impact from the shaping resin that is in molten condition, under the effect identical with the related problem of the present application, causes line image fuse characteristic variation.Therefore, in the circuit board 3, add the unit of the heat of shielding shaping resin at the formation position of line image fuse.Particularly, by adopting the structure of leaning on the related shaping resin of claim 1 other component units in addition to carry out the structure of heat shielding or disposing the related coiling member of claim 2, identical with the present application, also can obtain the effect that can get rid of thermal impact.
