  • Method of assembling a bipolar battery
    Patent number: 9780402
    Abstract: A method of sealing together two elements of a bipolar battery, the method comprising: interposing an inductive heating element between the two elements; applying a current to the inductive heating element to generate localized heat to melt material in the vicinity of the heating element to seal the two elements together.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 30, 2010
    Date of Patent: October 3, 2017
    Assignee: Atraverda Limited
    Inventors: Gavin Davies, Allan Turtle
  • Method of assembling a battery
    Patent number: 9306222
    Abstract: A method of joining a substrate for a bipolar electrode of a bipolar battery to a frame for supporting the bipolar electrode for use in the bipolar battery includes the implanting of a thermoplastic material in the substrate. The substrate and the frame are then vibration welded together at a frequency in the range of 50 Hz to 1 kHz to melt the thermoplastic material. The melted thermoplastic material forms a continuous or substantially continuous loop around the substrate to join the substrate and the frame together. A bipolar battery comprising a substrate and a frame joined together by the method, and a substrate for a bipolar electrode for use in the method are also described.
