摘要: Integrated filtering systems are provided for filtering battery vent byproducts (e.g., gases and/or effluent particulates) during battery thermal events of a traction battery pack. The filtering systems may include one or more filters integrated as part of a vent valve, a vent pipe, a pressure equalization device, and/or an array housing of the traction battery pack, and/or as part of a structure that is separate from the traction battery pack. The filter may be configured to filter a constituent element (e.g., carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen fluoride (HF), etc.) of a gaseous mixture vented from a battery cell of the traction battery pack during a battery thermal event, thereby mitigating the potential for vent gas combustion. The filter may be further configured to control the escape of particulates to surrounding environments.

摘要: A traction battery pack assembly includes, among other things, first and second pieces of an enclosure having an interior area. An attachment rim is disposed at a periphery of the first piece. The attachment rim has a stand-off that includes a platform portion and turned flange. The platform portion extends outward from the interior area in a first direction. The platform portion provides an aperture. The turned flange extends away from the platform portion in a second direction and terminates at an end face. The second direction is transverse to the first direction. The aperture is configured to receive a fastener that clamps the end face against the second piece.

摘要: A battery pack assembly method includes compressing a first cell stack, compressing a second cell stack, and inserting the first cell stack together with the second cell stack into a cell-receiving opening of an enclosure structure. Another traction battery pack assembly method includes simultaneously inserting a plurality of separate cell stacks into an enclosure structure when the plurality of cell stacks are each compressed by a compression fixture and, after the inserting, compressing the plurality of cell stacks using the enclosure structure.

摘要: This disclosure details exemplary battery pack designs for use in electrified vehicles. An exemplary battery pack assembly process may include supporting one or more components, such as a heat exchanger plate, of the battery pack against deflection during the assembly process. Supporting the heat exchanger plate to keep the plate relatively flat during the battery pack assembly process improves the flow distribution of a thermal interface material (TIM), thereby achieving improved TIM coverage and improved heat transfer between battery cells and the heat exchanger plate of the battery pack.

摘要: A battery pack includes an upper sidewall section of an enclosure, a lower sidewall section of the enclosure, and a fastener that moves to a secured position to secure the upper sidewall section to the lower sidewall section. The fastener is configured to be moved to the secured position from within an interior area of the enclosure. The battery pack further includes a gasket seal held between the upper sidewall section and the lower sidewall section at a position outside the fastener relative to an interior area of the enclosure.

摘要: A traction battery pack assembly includes, among other things, a foam section of a battery pack enclosure. The foam section provides a recessed area that at least partially receives a traction battery array. A substructure assembly is partially disposed within the foam section. An attachment point is provided by the substructure assembly. The attachment point is outside the foam section.
