Abstract
A battery holder is equipped with a support unit having a battery holding hole, and a holder unit interposed between the battery holding hole and the battery. The holder unit has a first spacer and a second spacer. The first spacer has a support part that supports the battery in the support unit. The second spacer is formed using a material with a lower melting point than the melting point of the material of the first spacer, this is inserted in the heat shielding space, and when the second spacer is melted by heat and flows out from the heat shielding space, the constitution is such that the heat shielding space shifts the heat insulation space.
Claims15
A battery holder for holding a plurality of batteries, the holder comprising:
- a support unit having battery holding holes for inserting each battery, and
- a holder unit interposed between an outer surface of the battery and an inner surface of the battery holding hole for supporting the battery in the support unit,
- wherein the holder unit includes a first spacer and a second spacer interposed to be laminated between the battery and the battery holding hole, wherein
- the first spacer is made of a first material, and has a support part for supporting the battery in the support unit so as to form a heat shielding space between the outer surface of the battery and the inner wall of the battery holding hole, and
- the second spacer is made of a second material that has a lower melting point than the melting point of the first material, and inserted in the heat shielding space, wherein the second spacer is configured to form a heat insulation space when the second spacer melts by heat, and flows out from the heat shielding space.
