Shell, Battery Cell, Battery, and Power Consumption Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18596615 titled 'Shell, Battery Cell, Battery, and Power Consumption Device
Simplified Explanation: The shell for an electrode assembly has a peripheral wall and pressure relief grooves. The wall encloses the extension direction and cracks along the grooves to release pressure when a threshold is reached.
- The shell includes a peripheral wall extended in a first direction.
- Pressure relief grooves are arranged on the peripheral wall.
- The grooves allow the shell to crack and release pressure when necessary.
- The distance between the grooves and the end of the wall is crucial for effective pressure relief.
- The design ensures safe operation of the electrode assembly.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Peripheral wall enclosing extension direction.
- Pressure relief grooves for releasing pressure.
- Controlled cracking along grooves.
- Optimal distance between grooves and wall end.
- Ensures safe operation of electrode assembly.
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in:
- Battery systems
- Fuel cells
- Capacitors
- Energy storage devices
Problems Solved:
- Prevents overpressure in electrode assemblies.
- Ensures safe operation in high-pressure environments.
- Reduces the risk of explosions or damage.
Benefits:
- Enhanced safety in energy storage systems.
- Improved reliability of electrode assemblies.
- Cost-effective solution for pressure management.
Commercial Applications: Potential commercial uses include:
- Automotive industry for electric vehicles.
- Renewable energy systems.
- Consumer electronics.
Questions about Shell for Electrode Assembly: 1. How does the design of the shell prevent overpressure in electrode assemblies? 2. What are the specific benefits of using pressure relief grooves in this technology?
Frequently Updated Research: Ongoing research focuses on optimizing the design of pressure relief grooves for various applications and improving the efficiency of energy storage systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
A shell for accommodating an electrode assembly includes a peripheral wall and pressure relief grooves. The peripheral wall is extended in a first direction and is configured to enclose extension direction of the peripheral wall. The pressure relief grooves are arranged on the peripheral wall, which is configured to crack along the pressure relief grooves when the pressure or temperature inside the shell reaches a threshold, so as to release the pressure inside the shell. A distance between the pressure relief groove adjacent to an end of the peripheral wall and the end is less than or equal to one-third of a length of the peripheral wall.
