Application: Energy storage apparatus (Patent ID: US20240106065A1)
The energy storage apparatus described in the patent filed by GS Yuasa Corp includes a design where a plurality of energy storage devices with gas release valves facing the same direction are connected to busbars using a busbar frame. The frame consists of first and second holders on either side of the gas release valve, connected by a coupling between adjacent energy storage devices. The upper end surface of the coupling is flush with or below the upper surface of the energy storage device's body portion, ensuring a compact and efficient arrangement.
Additionally, the patent claims detail various aspects of the energy storage apparatus, including the arrangement of the coupling between pairs of adjacent energy storage devices, the inclusion of an exhaust member for released gas, and the integration of detection lines for monitoring the devices' state. The design ensures proper ventilation and efficient monitoring of the energy storage devices, enhancing safety and performance. The specific configuration of the busbar holding member and the detection lines paths help optimize the space and functionality of the apparatus, making it a practical and effective solution for energy storage needs.
