BATTERY PACK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18617298 titled 'BATTERY PACK

Simplified Explanation:

The patent application describes a battery pack where battery cells are pressurized towards each other, in direct contact, and electrically connected without a bus bar. The cells have an inverse polarity with respect to adjacent cells.

  • The battery cells are pressurized towards each other
  • The cells are in direct contact and electrically connected
  • Cells have inverse polarity with respect to adjacent cells
  • No bus bar is needed for electrical connection, reducing costs
  • Arrangement of cells in a specific direction

Potential Applications: - Electric vehicles - Portable electronic devices - Energy storage systems

Problems Solved: - Reduced number of components - Lower costs - Simplified battery pack design

Benefits: - Cost savings - Improved efficiency - Enhanced safety

Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Battery Pack Technology for Various Industries This technology can be applied in electric vehicles, consumer electronics, and renewable energy storage systems, offering cost-effective and efficient solutions for a wide range of industries.

Questions about Battery Pack Technology: 1. How does the inverse polarity of the battery cells contribute to the overall efficiency of the battery pack? 2. What are the safety implications of pressurizing the battery cells towards each other in this design?


Original Abstract Submitted

A battery pack including battery cells pressurized toward each other, in direct contact with each other, and electrically connected to each other. The battery cells are arranged in a first direction and each of the battery cells has an inverse polarity with respect to an adjacent battery cell. The battery cells may be electrically connected to each other without a bus bar, which reduces the number of components and thereby reduces costs.
