The cover may also be formed with a larger dimension than that of the battery pack such that when the battery pack undergoes a swelling event, the battery pack increases its volume while still be contained by the cover. In this manner, other internal components may be positioned proximate to the cover without being affected by the battery pack. In another embodiment, a mold member covers an outer peripheral portion and supports the battery pack while allowing the battery pack to undergo a swelling event. | 03-31-2016 |
| 20160099449 | Assembly to Manage Contact Between Battery Cell Array and Thermal Interface Component of Thermal Plate - A vehicle traction battery assembly is provided which may include a support structure, a thermal interface component, and a pressure plate. The support structure may include a center bar arrangement and may be configured to support a thermal plate and battery cell array. The thermal interface component may be disposed between the array and plate. The pressure plate may be on an upper face of the array. The assembly may be configured to exert a force against the pressure plate to compress the thermal interface component between the thermal plate and array. The center bar arrangement may include a center bar extending along the array and may be shaped to define a passageway between the upper face and the center bar. The pressure plate may be at least partially disposed within the passageway. | 04-07-2016 |
| 20160133893 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE BATTERY HOLDER - An electronic device battery holder (“EDBH”) for holding a battery with a positive pole and a negative pole includes at least one deflectable electrically-conductive positive terminal prong with a proximal end configured for fixed electrical connection to a power circuit of an electronic device, a deflectable distal end configured to contact a positive pole of a battery operably inserted into the EDBH, and a deflectable middle portion connecting the proximal end and the distal end. The EDBH also includes at least one compressible electrically-conductive negative terminal prong configured to exert a force on the operably inserted battery, to contact a negative pole of the battery, and for fixed electrical connection to the power circuit of the electronic device. The at least one deflectable electrically-conductive positive terminal prong is configured to deflect during insertion of a battery therein and to exert a compressive securing force on an operably inserted battery. | 05-12-2016 |
| 20160149173 | BATTERY MODULE POSITIONING STRUCTURE AND BATTERY MODULE - A battery module positioning structure and a battery module are provided. The battery module positioning structure includes a substrate and a first electrode plate. The substrate includes a first through hole and a third through hole formed therein. The first through hole and the third through hole have a first clearance therebetween, and the substrate has a first surface and a second surface. The first electrode plate is secured onto the substrate. The first electrode plate includes a first terminal, a first body and a third terminal. The first terminal is connected to one end of the first body, and another end of the first body is connected to the third terminal. The first terminal is disposed on the first surface, and the first body is disposed on the second surface. The electrode plate can be easily engaged onto the substrate by way of the plurality of through holes, thereby readily assembling the battery module. | 05-26-2016 |
| 20160149277 | FRAME FOR SECONDARY BATTERY AND BATTERY MODULE INCLUDING THE SAME - Disclosed is a frame for a secondary battery, which has an improved structure to prevent a cooling plate from being deformed or distorted due to shrinkage of a main frame. The frame for a secondary battery includes a cooling plate made of a thermally conductive material with a plate shape, and a main frame having a plurality of unit frames spaced apart from each other in a horizontal direction by a predetermined distance, the main frame being configured to surround a rim of the cooling plate and made of a material different from the cooling plate. | 05-26-2016 |
| 20160164056 | BATTERY HOLDER AND ISOLATION ASSEMBLY - A battery holder for securing a battery to a vehicle and for mechanically isolating the battery from the vehicle is provided. The battery holder includes a vehicle mounting plate, a battery containment plate, and a number of shock absorbing elements. The battery containment plate includes a number of open-topped cells for retaining leaking battery liquid therein. The shock absorbing elements prevent vibrations and shocks from being transferred from the vehicle to the battery. | 06-09-2016 |
