Abstract:
A pressure release mechanism for a battery pack is constituted by a circular opening section and a gap adjustment plate. The gap adjustment plate is fixed to a wall through a pair of fixtures mutually opposed against each other via the opening section. When gas is generated due to an internal short-circuiting of any one or more of cells or so forth, the battery pack performs an elastic deformation trying to expand by itself. A gap is developed in association with a bending deformation of a wall surrounding the opening section in a direction orthogonal to the pair of fixtures. A high pressure gas in an inside of the pack casing is discharged externally via the gap

Claim (Index 9):
The pressure release mechanism for the battery pack as claimed in  claim 1 , which further comprises a sheet-like or thin plate rupture member overlapped on the opening section to enclose the opening section and broken by a predetermined pressure.
