摘要:
A vehicle traction battery assembly is provided which may include a support structure, a thermal interface component, and a pressure plate. The support structure may include a center bar arrangement and may be configured to support a thermal plate and battery cell array. The thermal interface component may be disposed between the array and plate. The pressure plate may be on an upper face of the array. The assembly may be configured to exert a force against the pressure plate to compress the thermal interface component between the thermal plate and array. The center bar arrangement may include a center bar extending along the array and may be shaped to define a passageway between the upper face and the center bar. The pressure plate may be at least partially disposed within the passageway.

An exemplary battery pack heat exchanger includes a wall of an enclosure, and a heat exchanger lid held against the wall to provide a chamber that receives a fluid to exchange thermal energy with a battery array that is outside of the chamber. An exemplary method of managing battery pack thermal energy includes moving a fluid through a chamber within an enclosure wall of a battery pack to adjust thermal energy levels of the battery pack.
摘要:
An exemplary battery pack enclosure assembly includes a tensioning section that limits movement of a first enclosure side relative to a second enclosure side to resist expansion of at least one battery cell within a group of battery cells that are disposed along an axis between the first enclosure side and the second enclosure side.

An integrated endplate for a battery pack includes an inner wall and an outer wall. The outer wall has a first side adjacent to the inner wall and a second side opposite the first side. The outer wall includes a connector interface protruding from the second side and defining at least one aperture therethrough. The integrated endplate further includes at least one electrical connector extending between the inner wall and the outer wall to the at least one aperture of the connector interface

A traction battery assembly includes a base plate and a plurality of prismatic cells stacked in an array on the base plate. A spacer assembly surrounds and is in contact with at least a portion of each of the cells. Each of the spacers assemblies include a pair of brackets having retaining tabs configured to extend over and retain a top portion of the cell opposite the base plate and anchoring tabs extending away from a base of the array. A clamp is disposed along the array and is configured to anchor the anchoring tabs to the base.
