A battery module includes at least one battery cell, a module case configured to accommodate the at least one battery cell, a fire extinguisher disposed at least partially inside the module case and connected to a fire extinguishing tank containing a fire extinguishing agent to inject the fire extinguishing agent directly into the module case when a thermal runaway or fire occurs in the at least one battery cell and an insulation cover configured to cover the fire extinguisher at least partially and disposed at least partially inside the module case.

Battery module comprising a fire extinguisher, battery rack comprising same, and power storage device

A battery module includes a cell assembly having at least two battery cells; a module housing having an inner space accommodating the cell assembly, and including a circulation hole so that the inner space is connected to an outside; a mesh member having a mesh structure and provided in the circulation hole of the module housing; and a sealing member provided at a position facing the mesh member and configured to expand a volume at more than a predetermined temperature to seal a mesh hole of the mesh member.

Battery module, battery pack, and vehicle

A battery module includes at least one battery cell; and a module case configured to accommodate the at least one battery cell, wherein a fire extinguishing agent supply channel connected to a fire extinguishing tank containing a fire extinguishing agent to directly inject the fire extinguishing agent into the module case when a thermal runaway or fire occurs at the at least one battery cell is provided to an inside of at least one side of the module case.

Battery module, battery rack comprising same battery module, and power storage device comprising same battery rack

A battery module includes a cell stack including a plurality of battery cells stacked in a direction, a module housing having an internal space in which the cell stack is received and an air inlet and an air outlet through which air enters and exits, a valve installation hole formed through a side wall of the module housing, a feed valve nozzle installed at the valve installation hole facing the internal space of the module housing, and a water expandable member provided in the module housing. The water expandable member expands in volume when it absorbs water during operation of the feed valve nozzle to close at least one of the air inlet, the air outlet or the valve installation hole.

Battery module having structure capable of delaying outflow of fire-fighting water injected therein in case of fire, and battery rack and energy storage device comprising same

The battery rack includes a plurality of battery packs vertically arranged, each battery pack including a plurality of secondary batteries stacked in a direction, and a pack housing having an internal space to receive the plurality of secondary batteries and configured to be supplied with a fire extinguishing liquid when an internal temperature equals or rises above a predetermined temperature, and a rack case having a receiving space to receive the plurality of battery packs, and including a plurality of rack plates, each having a mounting surface on which the battery pack is mounted, the mounting surface sloping at a predetermined angle with declining height as it goes in any one direction, and an extension portion having an end of any one direction extending further outward than the lower battery pack.
