本発明は、ナトリウムや硫黄等の活物質漏洩から生ずる
短絡・地絡事故等を有効に防止することかできるナトリ
ウム−硫黄電池の保護容器に関するものである。Detailed Description of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a protective container for a sodium-sulfur battery that can effectively prevent short circuits, ground faults, etc. caused by leakage of active materials such as sodium and sulfur. It is something.

るという問題かあった。(Prior art) Multiple sodium-sulfur batteries using sodium as the negative electrode active material and sulfur as the positive electrode active material are connected in a storage case as sealed high-temperature secondary batteries, and are operated at a high temperature of 300 to 350"C. However, if the active material leaks for some reason, short circuits may occur due to electrical continuity between the cells, or ground faults may occur due to electrical continuity between the cells and the storage case, resulting in battery damage. There was a problem that the driving ability of the driver was reduced.

率か劣るという問題点かあった。Therefore, the applicant installed a support insulator having a recessed part inside the storage case, as seen in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 2-94355, and installed a battery support tube upright on top of the support insulator to prevent leaked substances. We have previously proposed an insulated support tube structure for sodium-sulfur batteries that effectively prevents accidents due to active material leakage by dripping into the storage case, but the earlier application uses iron or aluminum metal for the support tube. There is a problem that the corrosion resistance against sodium is not sufficient, and short circuits and ground faults may occur if holes are made in the support tube.Also, as the size of the divided battery with support insulators increases, the volumetric efficiency becomes less efficient. There was a problem that it was inferior.

It is possible to effectively and reliably prevent the occurrence of short-circuit accidents, etc., without affecting other cells, etc., even when active material leaks from a single cell. Furthermore, it has excellent volumetric efficiency and is suitable for battery equipment. It was completed with the aim of providing a protective container for sodium-sulfur batteries that can be made smaller.

It is preferable to contain it in an amount of 0% by weight or more. The reason is,
Ni is used to improve corrosion resistance against sodium, which is a negative electrode active material, and if this Ni is less than 3% by weight, sufficient corrosion resistance cannot be exhibited.
Cr improves the corrosion resistance against sodium polysulfide, which is a positive electrode active material.
This is because if the content is less than 0% by weight, sufficient corrosion resistance cannot be exhibited.

The following impurities include CaO, MgO, K2O, N
It is preferable to use silica-containing inorganic fibers containing 15% by weight or more of alkali and alkaline earth metal oxides in total, such as a2O, because they tend to react with sodium and produce sodium compounds with low activity. The fibers can be formed into felt, paper, bulk, block, etc. shapes. Further, in the protective containers according to the first to sixth inventions described above, the container body (
