BATTERY PACK BUS SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17804817 titled 'BATTERY PACK BUS SYSTEMS
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes battery packs that consist of two end beams and multiple battery cells placed between them. - Each battery cell is separated from its neighboring cell by an interface material. - Each battery cell has two terminals on one surface. - The battery packs also include busbar segments that connect each battery cell electrically. - A bus tray is included in the battery packs, which consists of multiple segments that can hold at least two busbar segments each. - Each bus tray segment extends across at least three battery cells.
Original Abstract Submitted
Battery packs according to some embodiments of the present technology may include a first end beam and a second end beam. The battery packs may include a plurality of battery cells disposed between the first end beam and the second end beam. Each battery cell of the plurality of battery cells may be separated from an adjacent battery cell by an interface material. Each battery cell may include a first terminal and a second terminal on a first surface of the battery cell. The battery packs may include a plurality of busbar segments electrically coupling each cell of the plurality of battery cells. The battery packs may include a bus tray including a plurality of bus tray segments. Each bus tray segment may seat at least two busbar segments. Each bus tray segment may extend at least partially across at least three battery cells of the plurality of battery cells.
