  • Thermal interconnects for coupling energy storage devices
    Patent number: 7859826
    Abstract: A thermally fitted interconnect couples energy storage cells without the use of additional materials of fasteners. Variations of the interconnect can be used to facilitate fitting of multiple energy storage cell with multiple cell to cell spacings in a rapid and inexpensive manner.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 6, 2008
    Date of Patent: December 28, 2010
    Assignee: Maxwell Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Guy C. Thrap, James L. Borkenhagen, Mark Wardas, Adrian Schneuwly, Philippe Lauper

  • Expandable enclosure for energy storage devices
    Publication number: 20080013253
    Abstract: Electrical energy storage cells, for example, electrochemical double layer capacitor cells, are assembled into a module within an enclosure. The enclosure is built using modular construction so that it can be fitted to a variable number of cells. In exemplary embodiments, the enclosure may be expanded or reduced in size in one, two, or all three dimensions by inserting or removing additional panels. The panels may be interconnected using tongue and groove connectors.
