CONSTRAINING APPARATUS AND CONSTRAINING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18193027 titled 'CONSTRAINING APPARATUS AND CONSTRAINING DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The constraining apparatus and constraining device described in the patent application are designed to securely hold a battery cell in place. The apparatus includes a base, a positioning assembly, and a cushion assembly. The positioning assembly consists of positioning members arranged between two end plate assemblies, while the cushion assembly is located on one or both sides of the positioning members. The apparatus can switch between a first state where the positioning members are adjacent to each other to create space for the battery cell, and a second state where the positioning members are spaced apart.

  • The constraining apparatus includes a base, positioning assembly, and cushion assembly.
  • The positioning assembly consists of positioning members arranged between end plate assemblies.
  • The cushion assembly is located on one or both sides of the positioning members.
  • The apparatus can switch between a state where the positioning members are adjacent to each other and a state where they are spaced apart.

Original Abstract Submitted

A constraining apparatus and a constraining device are described. The constraining apparatus includes a base, a positioning assembly, and a cushion assembly. The positioning assembly includes a plurality of positioning members arranged in sequence and located between two end plate assemblies. The cushion assembly is disposed on at least one of two sides of the positioning member that are opposite each other in the first direction. The constraining apparatus includes a first state and a second state, where in the first state, adjacent two of the positioning members abut against each other, such that an accommodating space for accommodating a battery cell is formed between the adjacent two of the positioning members, and the cushion assembly is configured to abut against the battery cell and the positioning members. In the second state, the plurality of positioning members are spaced apart from each other in the first direction.
