Abstract: A battery includes an electrode group, and a rectangular exterior casing that houses the electrode group and includes a tubular side wall, a bottom connected to a lower end of the side wall in a Z direction, and an opening provided at an upper end. An inner surface of the bottom of the exterior casing has a slope inclined with respect to a plane orthogonal to the Z direction. The electrode group is in thermal contact with the slope. The bottom may have a protrusion protruding inward in the Z direction of the exterior casing, and the slope may be formed on the protrusion.

Abstract: A power storage module includes at least one power storage device, and a buffer member arranged with the power storage device in a first direction X. The buffer member includes a hard part having a predetermined hardness and a soft part softer than the hard part, the hard part and the soft part receiving a load in first direction X from the power storage device. The hard part changes its shape by receiving a load of a predetermined magnitude or more. The buffer member changes its state, by the hard part changing its shape, from a first state in which the load is received by the hard part to a second state in which the load is received by the soft part.

Abstract: A power storage module includes an array including power storage devices each having first and second surfaces opposite to each other in a first direction, a first restraint member facing the first surface of each power storage device, and a second restraint member facing the second surface of each power storage device. Dimensions of the power storage devices in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction are larger than respective dimensions of the power storage devices. The power storage devices are arranged in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions. The first restraint member extends in the third direction and restrains the array in the third direction. The second restraint member extends in the third direction and restrains the array in the third direction. At least one of the first and second restraint members has a hole therein. The hole is a recess falling in the first direction or a through-hole passing through the restraint member in the first direction.

Abstract: An electrical storage module includes: at least one electrical storage device; and a buffer member that is arranged in first direction X together with the electrical storage device and is configured to receive a load from the electrical storage device in first direction X. The buffer member includes a first layer portion and a second layer portion arranged in first direction X. The first layer portion has first softened portions each formed of a through hole or a recessed part. The second layer portion has second softened portion each formed of a through hole or a recessed part. The first softened portion and the second softened portion are at least partially displaced from each other as viewed in first direction X.

Abstract: A battery module includes: a battery stack having a plurality of batteries; a plurality of first restraining members and a plurality of second restraining members; and connecting members. The first restraining members and the second restraining members define a housing space for the battery stack. Each of the first restraining members has a first housing part extending in a direction intersecting a planar direction in which the battery stack, the first restraining members, and the second restraining members are arranged, and each of the second restraining members has a second housing part extending in the planar direction. Each of the connecting members connects each of the first restraining members and each of the second restraining members to each other by being housed in the first housing part of each of the first restraining members and in the second housing part of each of the second restraining members.

Abstract: A binding member includes a body part extending in stacking direction X of batteries, a supporting part extending in stacking direction X and projecting from the body part, the supporting part supporting a battery stack, and a plurality of pressing parts arranged to have a predetermined interval from the supporting part, the plurality of pressing parts being arranged in stacking direction X and projected from the body part to press the battery stack toward the supporting part. A first pressing part predetermined among the plurality of pressing parts provides a pressing force stronger than a pressing force provided by a second pressing part among the plurality of pressing parts, the second pressing part being closer to a fixing part fixing the battery stack and the binding member with respect to the first pressing part.

Abstract: A binding member includes a body part extending in stacking direction X of batteries, a supporting part extending in stacking direction X and projecting from the body part, the supporting part supporting a battery stack, and a plurality of pressing parts arranged to have a predetermined interval from the supporting part, the plurality of pressing parts being arranged in the stacking direction and projected from the body part to press the battery stack toward the supporting part. When the body part is divided into two regions that are a supporting part side region and a pressing part side region, a rigidity in the supporting part side region is smaller than a rigidity in the pressing part side region.
