  • Patent number: 10483507
    Abstract: A cell module for lithium-ion batteries includes at least two lithium-ion cells, in particular lithium-ion battery cells, a cell module housing that has at least one lateral wall, and at least one electrical insulation between the cells. The electrical insulation is configured in one piece with the cell module housing.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10263291
    Abstract: A method of producing a prismatic battery cell includes forming an initial arrangement by spatially arranging one or two wiring boards, a cathode layer, an anode layer, and at least two separator layers so as to be in parallel with each other and with respect to a winding axis. The initial arrangement is wound about the winding axis to form a battery winding. The battery winding is inserted in a cell housing, and a respective current connector is connected to each of the cathode layer and anode layer. The cell housing is filled with a liquid electrolyte, and is closed. A prismatic battery cell of this type can be included in a battery, such as a battery included with an automotive vehicle.

  • Patent number: 10062521
    Abstract: An electrode (10) for a combination of supercapacitor and battery, comprising an active structure (12), wherein the active structure (12) comprises an active material layer (18) which is divided into strips in the plane and capacitor strips (16) and battery strips (14) are arranged alternately in the plane, is proposed. Also a process for producing such an electrode (10) and a combined supercapacitor and battery cell comprising at least one such electrode.

  • Publication number: 20170065119
    Abstract: The invention relates to a vessel for the preparation of infusion beverages with a retaining volume for insoluble infusion constituents, consisting of a vessel body with a bottom which is formed as an inclined plane and converges at the base point into the retaining volume. In accordance with the invention, the retaining volume is formed as a reservoir space which comprises a flat bottom section extending beneath the inclined plane, a connecting section directed towards the inclined plane, and, opposite the connecting section, a bulbous retaining section which is effective during the pouring-out or drinking process in such a way that the infusion liquid level is prevented from dropping below the level of the insoluble infusion constituents.
