  • Patent number: 11978918
    Abstract: In various embodiments, an energy storage mounting system includes an inverter wall bracket mounted to a wall, wherein an inverter is coupled to the inverter wall bracket. The system includes a battery wall bracket to which a battery block is coupled. The battery wall bracket interfaces with an auxiliary bracket that is mounted to the wall, is vertically translatable relative to the auxiliary bracket, and is at least in part ground-supported. The battery block is electrically connected to the inverter.

  • Patent number: 11973205
    Abstract: An energy storage system includes an energy storage component. It further includes heat generating electronics. It further includes a fluid circulator that transfers fluid between the energy storage component and the heat generating electronics. The circulator is controlled to alternatively transfer fluid from the battery to the heat generating electronics or from the heat generating electronics to the energy storage component based at least in part on a thermal state of the energy storage system.

  • Patent number: 4499134
    Abstract: There is provided a composite having improved structural integrity and suitable for use in abrasive, high temperature environments. The composite comprises randomly laid and oriented heat resistant fibers interlocked together into the form of a shape sustaining paper having two lateral surfaces. The paper has a thickness of from about 0.01 to 0.50 inch. An abrasion-resistant, high temperature resistant scrim is disposed upon at least one of the lateral surfaces of the paper, and a network of abrasion-resistant, high temperature-resistant threads is stitched through the scrim and the paper such that the scrim is mechanically locked to the paper by said threads. The network of threads and the scrim substantially retain the structural integrity of the said paper in use in the abrasive, high temperature environments.
