Publication number: 20250202065Abstract: A battery module includes a plurality of battery cells stacked along a longitudinal direction and a flexible interconnect configured to provide electrical information of battery cells to a battery management unit. The flexible interconnect extends in the longitudinal direction and is affixed to the plurality of battery cells and includes a plurality of interconnect traces and a stress relief section extending in the longitudinal direction. The stress relief section has a cutout extending along the longitudinal direction that separates adjacent interconnect traces from each other. The interconnect traces include a first peripheral interconnect trace forming a recessed portion and a second peripheral interconnect trace opposite to the first peripheric interconnect trace and forming a protruding portion. A height of the protruding portion in the stress relief section is the same size as or smaller than a width of the flexible interconnect neighboring the stress relief section.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2024Publication date: June 19, 2025Inventors: Ilya GOMBATS, Lukas WALTER

Patent number: 12318869Abstract: A method of structuring a glass element having a first side face and a second side face is provided. The method includes the steps of: producing a filament-shaped flaw in the glass element with a pulsed laser beam along a focus line; etching to remove glass in the filament-shaped flaw to form a wall extending from the first side face towards the second side face, the wall having a boundary line that is tapered at a vertex between the wall and the first side face with a taper angle with respect to a perpendicular of the first side face; and adjusting the taper angle by controlling a feature of the focus line. The feature is selected from a group consisting of a position of the focus line, a length of the focus line, an intensity distribution of the focus line, and any combinations thereof.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2021Date of Patent: June 3, 2025Assignee: SCHOTT AGInventors: Andreas Ortner, Fabian Wagner, Markus Heiss-Chouquet, Annika Hörberg, Michael Drisch, Vanessa Glässer, Lukas Walter, Andreas Koglbauer, Lars Müller, David Sohr, Bernd Hoppe, Michael Kluge

Publication number: 20250158239Abstract: A battery module includes: a plurality of battery cells; a busbar electrically connecting the battery cells to each other; a flexible interconnect configured to provide electrical information of the battery cells to a battery management system; and a conductive pad between the flexible interconnect and the busbar. The conductive pad includes: a first part extending in a first plane; a second part extending in a second plane parallel to the first plane and spaced apart from the first part in a direction perpendicular to the first and second planes; and a third part connecting the first part and second part. The first part extends from the third part in a direction opposite the direction the second part extends from the third part. The busbar is attached to the first part of the conductive pad, and the flexible interconnect is attached to the second part of the conductive pad.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2024Publication date: May 15, 2025Inventors: Ilya GOMBATS, Lukas WALTER

Publication number: 20230384536Abstract: A receptacle for a plurality of light-guiding fibres is provided. The receptacle has a glass part with a first end face, a second end face, a plurality of rectilinear channels extending between the first and second end faces, and a lateral surface between the first and second end faces along a longitudinal direction. The glass part has a length defined between the first and second end faces where the length is greater than a largest transverse dimension of the glass part. The rectilinear channels are open at the first end face and/or the second end face so that the light-guiding fibres are receivable therein, respectively. The rectilinear channels have a channel length that is greater than a channel transverse dimension. The lateral surface has a parting surface thereon.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2023Publication date: November 30, 2023Applicant: SCHOTT AGInventors: Hubertus Russert, Lukas Walter

Publication number: 20230311248Abstract: A panel-shaped glass element is provided that includes vitreous material having a thermal expansion coefficient of less than 10×10-6 K-1 as well as two opposing surfaces. The glass element furthermore has at least one recess which runs through the glass of the glass element and has a recess wall which runs around the recess and adjoins the two opposing surfaces. The recess wall has a structure with a multiplicity of mutually adjacent rounded dome-shaped depressions. A roughness of the recess wall is formed by these depressions as well as the ridges enclosing the depressions. The recess wall has a mean roughness value (Ra) which is less than 5 µm.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Applicant: SCHOTT AGInventors: Andreas ORTNER, Fabian WAGNER, Markus HEISS-CHOUQUET, Michael DRISCH, Vanessa GLÄßER, Annika HÖRBERG, Lukas WALTER, Lars MÜLLER, David SOHR, Michael KLUGE, Bernd HOPPE, Andreas KOGLBAUER, Stefan MUTH, Ulrich PEUCHERT
