熱電池に関するものである。
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a stacked thermal battery containing a heating agent between the unit cells.

従来例の構成とその問題点 熱電池は電解質として常温では固体であるが高
温に加熱されると液体となる溶融塩、例えばLiCl
−KCl、LiBr−KBr共融塩などを用いている。
これらの電解質は330〜360℃で溶融するため、こ

その需要が拡大しつつある。
Structure of conventional examples and their problems Thermal batteries use molten salts as electrolytes, such as LiCl, which are solid at room temperature but become liquid when heated to high temperatures.
-KCl, LiBr-KBr eutectic salt, etc. are used.
These electrolytes melt at temperatures between 330 and 360 degrees Celsius, so heating them above this temperature can generate practical power. For this reason, many types of thermal batteries with a built-in heating agent such as a mixture of zirconium powder and barium chromate are produced, and they are used as power sources for flying objects such as rockets and various emergency power sources, and the demand for them gradually increases. It's coming.

熱電池の特徴は、前記の電解質が無水状態で用

水溶液系の電解質に比べ、その約1/10以下である
ため高率放電、例えば200〜600mA/cm2が可能で
あることなど他の電池にない数多くの特徴を有し
ている。
Thermal batteries are characterized by the fact that the electrolyte is used in an anhydrous state and is fixed at room temperature, so there is practically no self-discharge during storage, and it can withstand long-term storage of more than 5 years, and can be stored at -50°C to +70°C. It can be used in a wide temperature range such as ℃, and the internal resistance is about 1/10 or less compared to aqueous electrolytes, so high rate discharge, for example 200 to 600 mA/cm 2 is possible. It has many features not found in other batteries.

しかしこのような熱電池にも残された2〜3の
欠点があり、その解決が望まれていた。
However, such thermal batteries still have a few drawbacks, and solutions to these problems have been desired.

The second is improvement in environmental resistance. For example, under the conditions of impact acceleration of 300G and vibration level of 10Gr・m・s when mounted on a flying object, conventional thermal batteries do not cause any problems, but the impact acceleration
If the turning speed is 20,000 G and more than 10,000 r/p/m, structural problems will occur.
