Battery pack array separator

Abstract

An exemplary method of securing battery cells of a battery pack includes limiting upward movement of a separator by blocking movement of a projection with a structure. The projection extends from a spacer section of the separator and has a hook shape with an upwardly extending portion outside the structure. The method further includes limiting upward movement of a battery cell using the separator. Another exemplary method of securing battery cells of a battery pack includes limiting movement of a separator in a direction by blocking movement of a projection in the direction. The projection extends from a spacer section of the separator. The projection has a hook shape with a portion extending in the direction. The spacer section and the portion are on opposite sides of a structure. The method further includes limiting movement of a battery cell in the direction using the separator.
