Battery block
View Patent ↗A battery block includes a plurality of cylindrical batteries, a battery holder having a plurality of accommodating parts into which axial one end portions of the cylindrical batteries are inserted, and a pair of terminal plates, that connect the cylindrical batteries in parallel. Each of the accommodating parts includes the partition wall formed along an outer peripheral surface of cylindrical battery, an extending portion that extends on the first end surface so as to surround a part of the first end surface on which the safety valve is disposed and is formed integrally with the partition wall, and an opening that exposes the part of the first end surface on which the safety valve is disposed.
1. A battery block comprising:
a plurality of cylindrical batteries where a safety valve is disposed on a first end surface on a side of an axial one end portion of each of the cylindrical batteries; and
a battery holder that is configured by coupling a first holder to a second holder, wherein
the first holder is composed of a resin and has a plurality of accommodating parts into which the axial one end portions of the cylindrical batteries are inserted, and
the second holder is composed of a resin and has a plurality of accommodating parts into which axial other end portions of the cylindrical batteries are inserted,
wherein each of the accommodating parts of the first holder includes a first partition wall formed along an outer peripheral surface of each of the cylindrical batteries, each of the accommodating parts of the second holder includes a second partition wall formed along an outer peripheral surface of each of the cylindrical batteries, and an internal gap is formed between the cylindrical batteries inside of the battery holder, and in the internal gap, the first partition wall is not formed in an axial direction of each of the cylindrical batteries inside of the first holder and the second partition wall is not formed in an axial direction of each of the cylindrical batteries inside of the second holder, and
wherein the internal gap is a closed space that is not connected to an outside of the battery holder in a coupling portion of the first holder and the second holder.
2. The battery block according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first holder and the second holder includes side wall surrounding the plurality of accommodating parts.
3. The battery block according to claim 1 , wherein the side wall of the first holder overlaps the side wall of the second holder in the direction where the plurality of cylindrical batteries are aligned.
