- FIG. 1 is a plan view of a battery module 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line II-II shown in FIG.
- FIG. 3 is a plan view of the cooling unit 20 in the present embodiment. In FIG. 2, a side view of the unit cell 10 is shown.
- the battery module 100 includes a plurality of unit cells 10, 10,... Arranged in a matrix.
- each unit cell 10 is, for example, a cylindrical lithium ion secondary battery, and is accommodated in the case 30 so that the sealing plates 11, 11,... Are positioned above the battery module 100. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the axial direction of the unit cell 10 is substantially parallel to the height direction of the case 30.
- a cooling unit 20 is provided between the adjacent unit cells 10 and 10.
- the cooling unit 20 is formed by folding back a sheet-like member 21 having a rectangular shape in a plan view or a rectangular shape in a plan view, and the peripheral edges of the overlapping portions are sealed. That is, the sealing part 22 is formed over the three sides in the cooling unit 20 in this embodiment.

- the coolant is abnormal during abnormal heat generation. Since it is supplied from the upper side of the unit cell 10, the surface area of the unit cell 10 in contact with the coolant is increased. Therefore, compared with the case where the opening part 24 is located below the gravity center position of the unit cell 10, the abnormal unit cell 10 can be cooled. Therefore, it is preferable that the opening part 24 is located above the center of gravity of the unit cell 10 in the usage state of the battery module 100.

However, if the opening part 24 is located on the upper side of the battery module 100, the above-described effect (the surface area of the unit cell 10 that contacts the coolant during abnormal heat generation) can be obtained. In addition, if the cooling unit 20 is accommodated in the case 30 with the folded portion 25 facing down, the contact area between the cooling unit 20 and the case 30 can be increased, so that the cooling unit 20 can be stably accommodated in the case 30. can do. Considering these, it is preferable that the opening portion 24 is provided on the side opposite to the folded portion 25.

Therefore, also in this modification, the unsealing part 24 is unsealed as a result of the temperature of the cooling unit 40 rising due to abnormal heat from the unit cell 10. . Therefore, as described in the above embodiment, the cooling unit 40 (particularly the opening portion 24) may be in contact with the outer surface of the unit cell 10 as shown in FIG. The distance may be about 5 mm or less).

Moreover, since the coolant can be supplied to the abnormal unit cell without waste during abnormal heat generation, the abnormal unit cell can be efficiently cooled. Therefore, the cooling unit is preferably provided between adjacent unit cells as shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 5 or FIG.
- the cooling unit should just be provided between the unit cells adjacent in the row direction and column direction of a battery module.
- the cooling unit should just be provided between the unit cells adjacent in at least one direction of the height direction and depth direction of a battery module.

- fusion layer, a base material layer, and a protective layer which comprises a laminate film is not limited to the said numerical value.
- the coolant is not limited to water. However, the heat of vaporization of water is very large. Therefore, if water is used as a coolant, an abnormal unit cell can be efficiently cooled.
- the coolant may be a liquid obtained by mixing water with ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerin, or the like. Thereby, since the freezing of the coolant at a low temperature can be prevented, use at a low temperature (for example, use in a cold region) is also possible.
- the coolant may be a liquid in which a thickener such as gelatin is mixed with water. Thereby, since the viscosity of the coolant is increased, the time for which the coolant contacts the abnormal unit cell becomes long, and thus the abnormal unit cell can be efficiently cooled.
- the unsealed part When the unsealed part is positioned above the center of gravity of the unit cell in the usage state of the battery module, it is preferable that a mark indicating the vertical direction in the usage state is attached to the battery module. Thereby, it can prevent that a user mounts a battery module in apparatuses, such as a vehicle, accidentally up and down. Therefore, since the coolant can be supplied to most of the abnormal unit cells during abnormal heat generation, the abnormal unit cells can be efficiently cooled.
- the unit cells may be connected in series or in parallel, and the battery module preferably includes a connecting member for connecting the unit cells in series or in parallel.
- the battery module may include an exhaust duct that communicates with the exhaust holes of the unit cells.
- the number of unit cells constituting the battery module is not limited to the number shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 5 or FIG. Moreover, the unit cells may be arranged in a line in the battery module.
- the unit cell may be a prismatic lithium ion secondary battery, a laminate battery, or a secondary battery other than the lithium ion secondary battery.
- the configuration of the unit cell is not particularly limited, and may be a known configuration as the configuration of the secondary battery.
- an electrode group in which a positive electrode plate and a negative electrode plate are wound with a separator interposed therebetween may be accommodated in the battery case together with the electrolytic solution.
