Abstract: A vent adaptor for placement inside a vent aperture that is itself placed within a battery housing. The vent adaptor has a cylindrical portion and a seal to create a gas-tight seal around the vent aperture. Along the upper portion of the vent adaptor are teeth which function to lock the vent adaptor in various configurations depending on the number and orientation of the various teeth and their interaction with various indentations in the vent aperture. The cylindrical portion may also have ribs with various geometries spaced at particular intervals to prevent the egress of the vent adaptor from the vent aperture. The vent adaptor may have internal diameter of at least 5 millimeters to accommodate an appropriately sized vent tube. A batten 7 with a housing that contains a vent aperture and a vent adaptor located inside the vent aperture.

Abstract: A housing for an electrical power storage device is described herein. The housing includes a compartment having a base, a first wall extending from the base, and a second wall extending from the base. The housing also includes a first apron portion and a second apron portion to be used as part of a hold-down assembly for holding down the housing. The first apron portion and the second apron portion are positioned on the first wall and the second wall, respectively, between 15% and 85% of a height of the first wail and second wall from the base to a top of the first wall and the second wall.

Abstract: Disclosed is a battery comprising a cover; a housing having a base, two side walls, and two end walls; a cell wall spanning between the first and second side walls defining two cells; a battery element provided within a cell, the battery element having a bottom; an element bottom gap, the element bottom gap defined in a first and second dimension by the cell width and length, and a third dimension by the distance between the base and bottom of the battery element.
