20130260197 | BATTERY ARRAY, BATTERY SEPARATOR, AND VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH BATTERY ARRAY - The battery array is provided with a plurality of battery cells having a rectangular outline, insulating separators intervening between adjacent battery cells, a pair of endplates disposed at the ends of the battery cells stacked alternately with intervening separators, and binding bars that bind the endplates together. Partition plates, which are the parts of the separators sandwiched between adjacent battery cells, have thin regions established along regions opposite the upper ends of the battery cells, and the thin regions are formed thinner than partition plate regions opposite the center sections of the battery cells. | 10-03-2013 |
20130273412 | BATTERY PACK AND VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME - A battery pack includes battery cells, bus bars, and a wire harness. The battery cells include terminals on the upper surfaces of the battery cells. The bus bars connect the terminals of the battery cells to each other with the plurality of battery cells being arranged side by side. The wire harness is connected to the terminals. An electrically insulating separation wall is arranged between the terminal and the wire harness. | 10-17-2013 |
20140014420 | POWER SUPPLY DEVICE, POWER-SUPPLY-DEVICE SEPARATOR, AND POWER-SUPPLY-DEVICE-EQUIPPED VEHICLE AND ELECTRIC POWER STORAGE - A power supply device includes battery cells, separators, and fastening members. The plurality of battery cells have a rectangular-box exterior shape. The separators are interposed between the battery cells, which are arranged side by side. The fastening members securely hold a battery assembly of the battery cells and the separators, which are alternately arranged side by side. The surfaces of each of the battery cells is covered by an electrically insulating covering member. Each of the separators has recessed parts that form a plurality of gas-flowing paths between the battery cells so that cooling gas can flow along surfaces of these battery cells when this separator is interposed between these battery cells. Edge parts of the recessed part, which forms the gas-flowing paths, are rounded. | 01-16-2014 |
