  • the battery In order to satisfy the requirements for driving a motor mounted on an automobile, it is necessary to increase the battery power density, extend the service life, and provide high reliability for safety. In addition, a charging speed comparable to the fueling speed of a gasoline automobile is also an issue. Therefore, the battery is required to have good response characteristics with respect to charging / discharging using a large current and resistance in harsh environments such as ultra-high temperatures and extremely low temperatures.
  • a laminate type battery is used as a battery mounted on an automobile. Used in harsh environments with high temperatures and high currents such as rapid charge and discharge, and when it deteriorates, it involves gas generation due to decomposition of the electrolyte, and thus the laminate type battery tends to swell.

By realizing pressure reduction in the battery, it is possible to prevent the battery from being deteriorated in a harsh environment and improve safety.

The possibility of causing a system failure due to insufficient power supply can be reduced, which is preferable.
