Abstract:
A rubber valve for a lithium ion battery may be provided. The rubber valve may comprise: an upper projecting portion (11); a columnar portion (12) having an end connected with the upper projecting portion (11); and a lower projecting portion (13) connected with the other end of the columnar portion (12). A gas venting groove (14) may be formed into a projecting surface of the lower projecting portion (13) dividing the projecting surface into at least two parts. A lithium ion battery comprising the same may also be provided.
Abstract:
A battery system for storing electrical power and supplying electrical power to a vehicle is provided. The system includes multiple battery packs, and each battery pack includes a plurality of cells (300a, 300b). The cells (300a, 300b) in each battery pack are electrically connected with one another and the multiple battery packs are also electrically connected with one another to combine the total energy output of the cells (300a, 300b) of the system. The electrical connections between at least some of the cells (300a, 300b) include a severable feature(800a, 800b) , whereby the electrical connection is severed locally at the severable feature(800a, 800b) in response to an impact force that is in excess of a predetermined magnitude and/or an overcurrent/overtemperature condition.
