Abstract
Disclosed is a cartridge-type lithium ion polymer battery pack including: at least two lithium ion polymer batteries in which adjacent electrode tabs are connected to each other so as to form a predetermined series circuit with a desired instrument; and an upper plate and a lower plate disposed at the top and the bottom of the whole lithium ion polymer batteries, respectively, and coupled to each other so that each lithium ion polymer battery is partially covered with them. Multiple layers of the battery packs are laminated and fixed with ease so as to conform to the electric power requirement for a desired instrument.
Claims10
A cartridge-type battery pack comprising:
- at least two batteries in which corresponding electrode tabs are connected to each other so as to connect with a desired instrument, and
- an upper plate and a lower plate disposed at top and bottom of the whole batteries, respectively, and coupled to each other so that each battery is partially covered with them;
- wherein each of the upper plate and the lower plate is provided with cross members disposed along the length of each plate, the cross members being spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance in the direction of width, so that the batteries in each battery pack are partially exposed to the exterior for cooling, and at least a part of the cross members have through-holes at end edges thereof and at least two battery packs can be integrally fixed by bolts and nuts via the through-holes.
