BATTERY PACK - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240322390 titled 'BATTERY PACK
The abstract describes a battery pack with a unique arrangement of battery cells and bus bars to improve electrical output and simplify the structure.
- The battery pack includes battery cells arranged in a first direction with main surfaces facing each other and long sides forming a pair of upper and lower surfaces.
- First and second bus bars connect the battery cells in an alternating manner, ensuring adjacent cells in the first direction are not electrically connected.
- A third bus bar connects output terminals on the front side of the cells and adjacent cells on the rear side, improving electrical connection.
- The design allows for easy connection to devices, eliminates interference between cooling and electrical structures, and results in a slim profile.
Potential Applications: - Electric vehicles - Portable electronic devices - Energy storage systems
Problems Solved: - Improved electrical output - Simplified structure - Reduced interference between components
Benefits: - Enhanced electrical performance - Simplified assembly process - Space-saving design
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Battery Pack Design for Enhanced Electrical Performance This technology can be used in electric vehicles, portable electronics, and energy storage systems, offering improved efficiency and space-saving benefits in various commercial applications.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the unique arrangement of battery cells and bus bars improve electrical output? 2. What are the specific advantages of the slim profile of this battery pack design?
Original Abstract Submitted
a battery pack is disclosed. the battery pack includes a plurality of battery cells arranged in a first direction, each including a pair of main surfaces arranged to face each other in the first direction. each of the battery cells also includes upper and lower surfaces forming a pair of long sides facing each other, and first and second side surfaces forming a pair of short sides facing each other. first and second bus bars electrically connect the plurality of battery cells to each other in an alternating manner such that battery cells adjacent to each other in the first direction are not electrically connected by the first and second bus bars. a third bus bar electrically connects first and second output terminals formed together on a front side of the plurality of battery cells in the first direction, and the third bus bar electrically connects adjacent battery cells to each other at a rear side of the plurality of the battery cells. the battery pack may be easily electrically connected to a set device, has a simplified structured with improved electrical output, may eliminate interference between a cooling structure and an electrical connection structure, and is advantageously slim.
