In addition, when the temperature in the battery accommodating cavity is higher than a second preset temperature threshold value, the second preset temperature threshold value can be 49-85 ℃, the first heat absorbing material and the second heat absorbing material are heated to generate gas, the pressure in the battery accommodating cavity 81 is increased to enable the elastic membrane 5 to expand towards the buffer cavity 82, the temperature of the buffer cavity 82 is increased, the second heat absorbing material is heated to generate gas, the second heat absorbing material exchanges heat with the outside air through the outer cover plate 6 to reduce the temperature of the buffer cavity 82, then the first heat absorbing material and the second heat absorbing material return to the initial state, and the second heat absorbing material works in the process.
Further, the second preset temperature threshold is smaller than the third preset temperature threshold, when the temperature in the battery accommodating cavity 81 is larger than the third preset temperature threshold, the third preset temperature threshold can be larger than or equal to 86 ℃, the first heat absorbing material and the second heat absorbing material are heated to generate gas, at this moment, the temperature in the shell 8 cannot be controlled only through heat exchange between the outer cover plate 6 and the outside air, a large amount of gas causes the pressure in the battery accommodating cavity 81 and the buffer cavity 82 to increase, the pressure release valve on the outer cover plate 6 is opened, the elastic membrane 5 is broken, the second heat absorbing material flows into the battery accommodating cavity 81 to extinguish fire, and the use safety of the battery pack 10 can be ensured.
Further, as shown in fig. 3, the outer cover plate may include: the battery pack 10 comprises a body part 62 and a pressure relief part 63, wherein the pressure relief part 63 is connected with the body part 62, and when the temperature in the battery pack 10 reaches a third preset temperature threshold value, the pressure relief part 63 is separated from the body part 62 or is broken, so that the pressure relief effect can be realized, and further, the battery pack 10 can be prevented from being exploded in the using process.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the thickness of the relief portion 63 is smaller than that of the body portion 62, for example: the thickness of this somatic part 62 can be more than or equal to the thickness of twice relief pressure portion 63, and the ability that this somatic part 62 bore pressure is stronger than the ability that relief pressure portion 63 bore pressure, and when battery package 10 internal pressure reached the predetermined value, relief pressure portion 63 can not bear the pressure this moment and break or separate with this somatic part 62, from this, so set up can guarantee that relief pressure portion 63 satisfies the working requirement better to can guarantee the smooth completion of the pressure release work of battery package 10. The pressure relief portion 63 may be made of the same material as the main body portion 62, or may be made of different materials, and the pressure relief portion 63 and the main body portion 62 may be configured to be depressible under a certain pressure by adopting a certain connection manner, so as to prevent danger.
Optionally, the main body 62 and the pressure relief portion 63 are welded, and when the pressure in the battery pack 10 reaches a predetermined value, the welded joint between the main body 62 and the pressure relief portion 63 will be cracked, so that the main body 62 and the pressure relief portion 63 are separated, thereby achieving the pressure relief operation, and further improving the operation safety of the battery pack 10. According to the vehicle of the embodiment of the invention, the battery pack 10 comprises the battery pack 10 of the embodiment, the battery pack 10 is arranged and installed on the vehicle, the battery pack 10 can increase the electric quantity of the battery pack 10, more electric energy can be provided for the vehicle, and therefore the running distance of the vehicle can be prolonged.
