HEAT STORAGE DEVICE

Provided with a heat storage device having a simple and small shape without occupying large space when mounted on an electric car and capable of storing and releasing heat efficiently without using water so that the heat storage device is used as a heater. A heat storage device 10 includes: a heat storage material 14 configured to be oxidized and deoxidized by a temperature control operation; a heat transfer material 15 for heating the heat storage material 14; at least a pair of electrodes 11, 12 configured to be connected to a power source for heating the heat transfer material 15; a container 16 containing the heat storage material 14, the heat transfer material 15 and the at least a pair of electrodes; an upstream valve 17 provided on an upstream inlet of the container 16 for shielding an inside of the container 16 from an outside; and a downstream valve provided on a downstream outlet of the container 16 for shielding the inside of the container 16 from the outside.
