BATTERY CELL WITH SERPENTINE TAB
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250096380 titled 'BATTERY CELL WITH SERPENTINE TAB
Original Abstract Submitted
the disclosed technology relates to an electrical feedthrough for a battery cell. the electrical feedthrough may include a pin configured to form an external battery terminal, an insulator surrounding the pin and configured to electrically isolate the pin, a channel, and a serpentine tab electrically coupled to the pin at a first end. the serpentine tab is nested within the channel to minimize use of space within an enclosure of the battery cell thereby increasing energy capacity of the battery cell by eliminating the need to allot space within the enclosure to accommodate the tab.
