20110177377EXPANDABLE BATTERY PACK CONTAINMENT DEVICE FOR POUCH BATTERY CELLS - A pouch battery cell container, including at least, one battery cell compartment, is interposed between two end plates. The planar electrode surfaces of a pouch battery cell, housed within the battery cell compartment, are subjected to a constant and optimal amount of compressive force during cell expansion and contraction for battery cell optimization. A first end plate and a second end plate are coupled together by a plurality of connecting devices, wherein each connecting device includes an elastic deformation component. As the battery cells housed within the battery container expand and/or contract, the first and second end plates move relative to each other while constrained by the elastic deformation device so as to maintain a constant amount of compressive force on the planar electrode surfaces housed within the battery cell.07-21-2011
20110095574COMPOSITE LAND VEHICLE FRAME - A composite frame for vehicles formed with a honeycomb or similar core laminated on the top and bottom sides with a layer of material joined by an adhesive layer. One or more structural beams or stringer are interposed between the top and bottom layer of the composite frame running part or all of the length or width of the composite frame. Each of these structural members may also be joined to the top and bottom material as well as the adjacent honeycomb or by a layer of adhesive or by other means. One embodiment of the frame may be perfectly flat along a horizontal axis. A second embodiment may conform to any curvature, angle or combination specified.04-28-2011
