Abstract: Techniques for efficient routing of wires and electrical components within a device are disclosed. A wire can be routed, for example, in the space between two battery cells (or other components/structures) with the use of a bracket inserted between the cells to provide structural support. The electrical tape surrounding a battery may be cut or otherwise breached in order to expose the cavity between distinct battery cells. In some embodiments, multiple brackets may be inserted between the battery cells, creating a trough through which a wire or other component may be routed. After routing a wire through the trough, another electrical part or housing may be fixed above the battery cells.

Abstract: Techniques for efficient routing of wires and electrical components within a cavity of a device are disclosed. A wire or group of wires can be routed in a split wire configuration, for example, in the space between two battery cells (or other components/structures). One example embodiment includes exposing a cavity between at least two electrical parts within an electrical device, and routing a first electrical component through the cavity and routing a second electrical component in a divergent path to the first electrical component, wherein the first and second electrical component have a common start and end point. In some cases, the first and second electrical components are wires. Numerous such split wire configurations will be apparent in light of this disclosure.

One example case includes a first electrical component placed within the bracket, and a second electrical component routing in a divergent path to the first electrical component external to the bracket, wherein the first and second electrical component have a common start and end point.

Abstract: Techniques for efficient split wire routing of wires and electrical components within a device are disclosed. A split wire routing is discussed with a common start and end point but allows divergent paths for individual and/or groups of wires. A wire can be routed, for example, in the space between two battery cells (or other components/structures) with the use of a bracket inserted between the cells to provide structural support. The electrical tape surrounding a battery may be cut or otherwise breached in order to expose the cavity between distinct battery cells.

Abstract: Techniques for efficient routing of wires and electrical components within a device are disclosed. The electrical tape surrounding a device may be folded, cut, or otherwise altered in order to create a trough between distinct device elements. A wire or other component may then be routed within the trough. A wire can be routed, for example, in the space between two device elements (e.g., two battery cells) with the use of a bracket inserted between the cells to provide structural support. The brackets may be placed within the cavity between device elements after cutting a section of the electrical tape. In some embodiments, multiple brackets may be inserted between the device elements, creating a structurally stable trough through which a wire or other component may be routed. After routing a wire through the trough, another electrical part or housing may be fixed above the device elements.
