  • the winding portion is configured such that movement of the winding portion along the axial direction of the shaft is restricted by the rising portion.
  • the cover covers the pressure release hole without gaps, the gas released to the outside of the storage box 91 during pressure release is released downward from the cover only through the opening at the lower end of the cover.
  • the substance released together with the gas from the storage box is discharged only downward, it is possible to prevent the substance from scattering over a wide area, and to suppress the adverse effects of the substance on the peripheral equipment. can be done.
  • FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of the pressure relief device according to Embodiment 2, showing a state in which the pressure relief plate is in the closed position.
  • FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a state in which the pressure release plate is in the open position.
  • Pressure-releasing device 20 is obtained by replacing pressure-releasing plate 11 of pressure-releasing device 10 in Embodiment 1 with pressure-releasing plate 21 shown in FIGS.
  • the pressure release plate 21 has a plate-like portion and an arm (described later), and is made of a material that is difficult to elastically deform.
  • the pressure-releasing plate 21 does not have a portion that is elastically deformed, and the entire plate-like portion of the pressure-releasing plate 21 serves as the movable portion 21c.
  • the pressure relief plate 21 is made of, for example, a ferrous metal such as iron or stainless steel, a nonferrous metal such as aluminum or copper, or an insulating material (thermoplastic resin or thermosetting resin) such as epoxy resin or polyethylene resin. It has greater rigidity than the pressure relief plate 11 . Although the thickness of the pressure release plate 21 is not particularly limited, it is preferable to make it thinner from the viewpoint of weight reduction.
  • the pressure release plate 21 is provided with an arm 27 at the upper end of the movable portion 21c.
  • the arm 27 is made of metal, for example, and configured to stand up from the movable portion 21c.
  • the arm 27 extends from the movable portion 21c in the ⁇ x-axis direction.
  • the arm 27 is provided with a hole 27a into which the shaft 14 is fitted, and the arm 27 and the movable portion 21c are fixed to the shaft 14 which is fitted into the hole 27a. This configuration allows the movable portion 21 c to rotate together with the shaft 14 .
  • a torsion coil spring 15 is attached to the shaft 14, and the load of the torsion coil spring 15 holds the movable portion 21c in the closed position as in the first embodiment. Also, the movable portion 21c moves from the closed position to the open position due to the increase in pressure inside the storage box 91 when the current is interrupted. Further, unlike the pressure release plate 11 of the first embodiment, although it is not affected by elastic deformation and elastic force, it is the same as the first embodiment in that it returns to the closed position after the pressure is released. When the load F and the gravity FG (not shown in FIGS. 9 and 10) due to the torsion coil spring 15 exceed the load P (not shown in FIGS. 9 and 10) due to the pressure inside the storage box 91, the load F and the gravity FG The pressure relief plate 21 in the open position returns to the closed position.
  • the movable portion 21c has a cut portion 21f in which the corner of the upper end facing the storage box 91 is cut to remove the edge.
  • the upper end of the movable portion 21c facing the storage box 91 is pressed against the pressure release device mounting portion 91d.
  • the edge may interfere with the -x side surface of the pressure release device mounting portion 91d, hindering smooth movement from the closed position to the open position, but the cut portion 21f is formed.
  • the cut portion 21f slides on the -x side surface of the pressure release device mounting portion 91d. Therefore, smooth movement of the movable portion 21c from the closed position to the open position is not hindered.
  • Others are the same as those of the first embodiment, so description thereof will be omitted.
  • the pressure release plate is made of a metal material or a resin material that has greater rigidity and hardly undergoes elastic deformation. Therefore, the flame retardancy and strength of the pressure relief plate can be further enhanced.
  • FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of the pressure relief device according to Embodiment 3, showing a state in which the pressure relief plate is in the closed position.
  • the pressure relief device 30 is the same as the pressure relief device 10 of the first embodiment, except that the torsion coil spring 15 is omitted. Further, along with the omission of the torsion coil spring 15, the shaft 14 and the support 13 are also omitted. As described above, since the deformation portion 11b has elasticity, the pressure release plate 11 alone can provide a certain degree of sealing performance.
  • the elastic force of the deformable portion 11b applies a load to the movable portion 11c in the direction of holding it in the closed position.
  • the elastic force of the deformation portion 11b applies a load to the movable portion 11c in the direction of returning to the closed position. That is, even without the load F of the torsion coil spring 15, the return operation from the open position to the closed position is realized by the load due to the elastic force of the deformation portion 11b and the gravity FG.
  • Others are the same as those of the first embodiment, so description thereof will be omitted.
  • Embodiment 4 will be described with reference to FIG. 1 to 12 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted.
  • 12 is a front view of a pressure relief device according to Embodiment 4.
  • the pressure release device 40 is constructed by omitting the handle portion 12a from the cover 12 of the first embodiment as a cover 42. As shown in FIG. Others are the same as those of the first embodiment, so description thereof will be omitted.
  • the handle is omitted from the cover, so the cover is downsized. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the size and weight of the pressure relief device.
