  • Patent number: 10008708
    Abstract: A battery pack includes a plurality of electrically connected battery modules. The battery module includes a plurality of type-A battery cells and a plurality of type-B battery cells. The type-A battery cells and the type-B battery cells are arranged in alternate manner. Both of the type-A and the type-B battery cells have a positive tab and a negative tab. The positive tabs and negative tabs of all type-A battery cells are electrically connected with a type-A first and a type-A second connecting pieces respectively. The positive tabs and negative tabs of all type-B battery cells are electrically connected with a type-B first and a type-B second connecting pieces respectively. When the battery pack burns, the type-A battery cells have an isolation effect on stopping the diffusion of combustion so as to improve the safety, and also improve the rapid charging and discharging ability and energy density of the battery pack.

  • Patent number: 9764655
    Abstract: A hybrid power supply includes a first battery array, a second battery array, and a controller. The first battery array includes a plurality of first battery packs. The second battery array includes a plurality of second battery packs. The controller controls charging and discharging of the first battery array and the second battery array. The second battery array is connected in parallel with the first battery array by at least a bidirectional converter. The first battery array and the second battery array are connected to a power bus for outputting power. The first battery array has a high-rate charging/discharging performance higher than the second battery array. The second battery array has a capacity greater than the first battery array.
