  • Publication number: 20240250325
    Abstract: A cell temperature measurement system for a battery includes a heat spreader and a temperature sensor. The heat spreader is configured to thermally conduct energy through a substrate from a cell contact to a sensor contact. The temperature sensor is configured to generate a measurement reflective of a cell or another component temperature of the battery. The temperature sensor may generate the temperature measurement according to readings taken with a probe positioned proximate the sensor contact.

  • Patent number: 11652339
    Abstract: A press fitting for an electrical conduit includes a fitting body and a press connector in a press-connection section of the fitting body to allow press-fit connection to a conduit. A conduit retainer in a conduit retainer section of the fitting body releasably grips and removably retains the electrical conduit in the fitting body before the press-connection section is deformed radially inward during the press connection process.

  • Publication number: 20230136430
    Abstract: A battery includes a housing having a base. A battery cell stack and an enclosure are supported on the base of the housing. The battery cell stack includes a plurality of battery cells physically separated into a first battery cell group and a second battery cell group. The enclosure includes first and second support walls respectively disposed on opposite first and second sides of the first battery cell group and a canopy extending between the first and second support walls, above the first battery cell group. The enclosure partially surrounds the first battery cell group on three sides and establishes a physical and thermal barrier between the first battery cell group and the second battery cell group.
