Patent number: 12203998Abstract: A battery system may include multiple battery cells grouped into modules. Each battery module may have a diffuser plate to direct the hot gases and molten material that are ejected during cell failure. The gas and material may be directed away from the nearest neighboring cells in the event of a single cell thermal runaway. Residual thermal energy is wicked away, absorbed or contained to keep heat away from the neighboring cells. These and other features may manage the blast energy and residual thermal energy of a single cell failure event. This may prevent a cascading failure of the larger battery system, thereby mitigating the risk of injury to personnel and property.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2022Date of Patent: January 21, 2025Assignee: General AtomicsInventors: Gilberto Fernando Rodriguez, Boris Tyrol, Scott Brian Mahar, Gordon F. Smith, II, Corey John Jaskolski

Patent number: 9139074Abstract: Vehicles incorporating various methods and devices for mounting a fraction battery include securing the traction battery to a structural member of the vehicle in a manner that releases the traction battery from the structural member of the vehicle in response to an external load applied to the fraction battery that exceeds a threshold. A mounting member includes a slot for guiding movement of the battery away from the external load to reduce or eliminate compressive loading of the battery. Fasteners include a guide portion that cooperates with the slot and a shear portion that secures the battery in a first position but separates from the guide portion in response to the external load to allow the battery to move to a second position away from the external load.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2014Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventor: Corey John Jarocki
