Scalable battery module

A scalable battery module having a longitudinal axis, the scalable battery module comprising:

• a plurality of similarly configured cell groupings arranged along and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the scalable battery module and comprising a plurality of cell packs electrically coupled in parallel and arranged to be intersected by the longitudinal axis of the scalable battery module, each cell grouping of the plurality of cell groupings including a negative terminal and a positive terminal;
• a plurality of framed heatsink assemblies each having a thermally conductive sheet portion, a first framed heatsink assembly of the plurality of framed heat sink assemblies being disposed between one cell pack of the plurality of cell packs of one cell grouping of the plurality of cell groupings and another cell pack of the plurality of cell packs of the one cell grouping;
• and
• a plurality of jumper tabs arranged substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the scalable battery module, wherein each of the plurality of jumper tabs has a first connection point to a negative terminal of one of the plurality of cell groupings and a second connection point to a positive terminal of an adjacent cell grouping, the second connection point being spaced apart from the first connection point along the longitudinal axis, each of the plurality of jumper tabs electrically coupling the negative terminal of the one of the plurality of cell groupings to the positive terminal of the adjacent cell grouping;
• wherein the adjacent cell groupings that are electrically coupled together by the jumper tabs are arranged along the longitudinal axis of the battery module;
• wherein each of the plurality of framed heatsink assemblies comprises a first frame and a second frame, wherein the first frame and the second frame interlock, wherein the thermally conductive sheet portion of each of the plurality of framed heatsink assemblies is disposed longitudinally intermediate the first frame and the second frame, and
• wherein the first framed heatsink assembly of the plurality of framed heatsink assemblies includes at least one first stud configured to be connected to the negative terminal of the one cell grouping of the plurality of cell groupings, and at least one second stud configured to be connected to the positive terminal of the one cell grouping of the plurality of cell groupings.
