Using a spacer to block path of thermally conductive structural adhesive in lithium ion cells
Abstract:
Embodiment include a power source module comprising one or more power cells. Each power cell can comprise a pressure vent on a side of the power cell. The pressure vent can be adapted to relieve an internal pressure of the cell when the internal pressure exceeds a threshold. A cooling plate can be disposed adjacent and substantially parallel to a side of the one or more power cells having the pressure vent. One or more spacers can be disposed between each of the one or more power cells and the cooling plate and substantially surrounding the pressure vent of one of the one or more power cells. A thermally conductive potting material can be disposed between the one or more power cells and the cooling plate. Each spacer prevents the potting material from intruding into an area around the vent of one of the one or more power cells.
