    摘要: A computerized method for categorizing defects on a substrate. A list of defects on the substrate is received as input to a processor, where each defect is represented by a defect location and an associated micro-defect code. The input is analyzed with the processor to detect spatial clusters of defects on the substrate. The spatial clusters are analyzed with the processor to determine which of the spatial clusters represent known macro-defects and which of the spatial clusters represent unknown macro-defects. The micro-defect code associated with each defect that is included in one of the spatial clusters that is determined to be a known macro-defect is changed with the processor with a macro-defect code that is associated solely with the known macro-defect. The processor analyzes the defects that are included in one of the spatial clusters that is determined to be an unknown macro-defect to determine a predominantly occurring micro-defect code. The processor changes the micro-defect code associated with each defect that is included in the one spatial cluster that is determined to be an unknown macro-defect with the predominantly-occurring micro-defect code. The processor sends the changed list of defects on the substrate as output.

    摘要: A power supply temperature sensor and system includes a power supply housing configured to receive at least one power supply unit, such as a battery cell. The power supply housing includes an aperture which provides communication between the battery cell and an ambient environment outside the power supply housing. A sensor having a sensing element is configured to sense a temperature of the battery cell, and a sensor housing surrounds at least a portion of the sensor, including at least a portion of the sensing element. This electrically isolates the sensing element from the battery cell. A portion of the sensor housing is configured to be disposed through the aperture in the power supply housing to make contact with the battery cell to facilitate conductive heat transfer between the battery cell and the sensor housing, thereby facilitating an accurate measurement of the temperature of the battery cell.

    摘要: A battery pack of the type that may be used in an electrically-powered vehicle comprises first and second arrays of cells disposed adjacent one another, and a housing enclosing the two arrays. The housing defines a cooling chamber surrounding heat transfer surfaces of the cells, a first manifold sealed from the cooling chamber and collecting gasses generated by the first array, and a second manifold sealed from the cooling chamber and collecting gasses generated by the second array. A tunnel connects the first and the second manifolds to allow passage of any collected gasses from the first manifold into the second manifold, and a discharge opening in the second manifold allows the collected gasses to escape from the housing. An electrically conductive bridge bar extends through the tunnel and connects the first array with the second array.

    摘要: A power supply system includes a number of battery cells connected in rows in an end-to-end fashion to form a battery module. A number of these battery modules are placed into a housing to form a battery brick, which is a basic building block that can be used to create a larger battery assembly. The power supply system may include locators to position individual battery cells within a row, to help ensure proper alignment of battery terminals extending outside the battery housing. Terminal connectors can be used to reduce the magnitude of the voltage seen across exposed terminals. The terminal connectors connect two of the battery terminals, while covering, and inhibiting access to, adjacent battery terminals. The power supply system may also include sensor stations to facilitate use of temperature sensors such that uniformity of airflow around the battery cells is maintained regardless of how many temperature sensors are used.

    摘要: A retaining structure for a power supply may include top and bottom rails connected by columns, which carry loads that would otherwise be applied to the power supply. End plates may be attached to the rails to inhibit movement of the cells in directions parallel to the top and bottom rails. The rails may have a cross section configured to carry at least some of the loads applied to the battery pack. For example, at least a portion of the cross section may be configured in a shape that acts as a spring and deflects upon loading.
