Abstract:
A battery system having interconnected battery packs (2300) is provided. Each battery pack (2300) includes a plurality of rectangular prismatic shaped cells (300). Each cell (300) includes a positive terminal at one end and a negative terminal at the other end. The cells (300) are housed in a battery pack housing (2305) in a side-by-side manner. The cells (300) may be electrically connected in series so that the positive terminal for a cell (300) extends toward and contacts the negative terminal of an adjacent cell (300) and the negative terminal for the cell (300) extends toward and contacts the positive terminal of another adjacent cell (300).
Abstract:
An electrochemical storage cell having a coiled core is disclosed. The coiled core includes a cathode sheet, an anode sheet, and a separator sheet. An anode connector is connected with the anode sheet at a first end of the coiled core and a cathode connector is connected with the cathode sheet at a second, opposite end of the coiled core. The coiled core has a length L core and a width W core and each connector has a width W connector . The length of the coiled core L core , width of the coiled core W core , and width of each connector W connector have the relationship 0 core -W connector )/L core
