Patent number: 9960397Abstract: An electrochemical device including a housing and a stack of electrochemical cells in the housing. Each electrochemical cell includes an anode electrode, a cathode electrode, a separator located between the anode electrode and the cathode electrode and an electrolyte. The electrochemical device also includes a current collector located between adjacent electrochemical cells, an anode bus operatively connected to the anodes of the electrochemical cells in the stack and a cathode bus operatively connected to the cathodes of the electrochemical cells in the stack. The housing, the anode electrode, the cathode electrode, the separator, the anode bus and the cathode bus are non-metallic.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2015Date of Patent: May 1, 2018Assignee: AQUION ENERGY, INC.Inventors: Jay Whitacre, Don Humphreys, Wenzhuo Yang, Edward Lynch-Bell, Alex Mohamed, Eric Weber, David Blackwood

Publication number: 20160218334Abstract: An assembly includes non-load bearing housings, each housing including several cavities. Each cavity includes a stack of freely stacked electrochemical storage cells in the housings. Each electrochemical storage cell includes an anode electrode, a cathode electrode, and a separator located between the anode electrode and the cathode electrode. The assembly is configured such that pressure applied to the assembly is born by the freely stacked electrochemical storage cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2016Publication date: July 28, 2016Inventors: Jay Whitacre, David Blackwood, Eric Weber, Wenzhou Yang, Eric Sheen, William Campbell, Don Humphreys, Edward Lynch-Bell
