  • Publication number: 20140295226
    Abstract: Provided is a cooling apparatus for a cell assembly type battery configured of a plurality of battery cells. The cooling apparatus is to discharge air introduced into an air inlet to an air outlet via a cooling channel between battery cells to cool a cell assembly type battery, in which a cooling channel covering plate covering a portion of the cooling channel is disposed before or behind the cooling channel so that the cooling channel having the flow of cooling air relatively faster than that in any other cooling channel has an introduction amount of air relatively smaller than that into other cooling channels. Therefore, the cooling efficiency may be excellent and each battery cell may be uniformly cooled without large deviation.

  • Publication number: 20140134464
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a battery pack in which a plurality of unit modules consisting of battery cells are stacked, adjacently or in regular intervals, and electrode tabs are connected in series, and more specifically, to a battery pack including an overcurrent protector capable of preventing damage to each battery cell caused by a battery cell short circuit or overcurrent which flows in from a protection circuit by: connecting positive and negative electrode tabs of the battery cell with a voltage sensing line in order to sense the voltage of each battery cell; and installing a fuse in a connector which is arranged between the battery cell and the voltage sensing line and couples electrode tabs.

  • Publication number: 20130196211
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a battery having a cell tab connection structure made using resistance welding. A support member is interposed between the cells to support the cells. A terminal is placed on an upper surface of the support member. Tabs of each of the cells or both side edges of the terminal are bent, and the terminal is joined to the corresponding tabs of the cells by resistance welding.

  • Patent number: 7259645
    Abstract: Disclosed is a control switch system for a vehicle, using a jog shuttle, by which a driver can rapidly and correctly select and control operation of a sound system in the vehicle even during driving of the vehicle. Since the control switch system uses simple members such as springs and metal balls, the cost of the vehicle decreases.
