  • Expandable electrochemical cell effluent containment device and corresponding systems and methods
    Patent number: 11296386
    Abstract: A containment system (100) includes a housing (106). A battery pack (104) is situated within the housing. One or more ports (114) are disposed along a surface of the housing. An effluent containment pouch (108) is coupled to the surface of the housing. The effluent containment pouch spans the one or more ports. The effluent containment pouch expands when an electrochemical cell (105) experiences a thermal runaway condition, capturing expelled effluent (116).
