Benefits of technology

[0010]Heat is exchanged between the temperature adjustment unit and the storage battery etc. due to heat conduction through the above described liquid. As a result, the temperature of the storage battery etc. may be kept uniform at an appropriate temperature, as compared to a case where the storage battery etc. is surrounded by air. Since there is no air around the storage battery etc., condensation does not occur on the surface of the storage battery etc. In addition, since the liquid storage container is surrounded by the heat insulating material, temperature fluctuations in the liquid storage container due to the influence of outside air temperature may be further suppressed. As a result, the operation load of the temperature adjustment unit is reduced, so that the temperature adjustment unit may be reduced in size.
[0011]According to the present disclosure, a power storage device capable of operating over a long period of time without being affected by outside air temperature or humidity is provided.

Problems solved by technology

As a result of detailed consideration by this inventor, depending on the arrangement of the storage battery and the inverter in such a power storage device, there is a possibility that the storage battery and the inverter are not uniformly and sufficiently cooled, thus resulting in uneven temperatures in some portions.
Moreover, when humidity of the air is high, dew condensation may occur inside the casing, and there is a possibility that the operation of the inverter may be affected.

Example

[0022]Hereinafter, the present embodiments will be described with reference to the attached drawings. In order to facilitate the ease of understanding, the same reference numerals are attached to the same constituent elements in each drawing where possible, and redundant explanations are omitted.

[0023]A power storage device 10 according to the present embodiment is a vehicle-mount storage battery which is mounted on an electric vehicle. However, the power storage device 10 is not limited to this use. For example, the power storage device 10 may be used as a stationary type power storage device installed in a building as a part of the HEMS, or may be used as a power storage device installed in a base station for mobile phones.

[0024]The structure of power storage device 10 will be described. FIG. 1 shows the external appearance of the power storage device 10, and FIG. 2 shows its internal structure. The power storage device 10 has a configuration in which a storage battery 30 and the lik
