Abstract
A method for dismantling a device including at least one article at least partially embedded in a resin, the article including a body and a housing at least partially surrounding the body, the housing being at least partially in contact with the resin, wherein the method includes extracting the body from the housing, the housing remaining attached to the resin upon the extraction of the body.
Claims17
A method for dismantling a device (1) comprising at least one article (2) embedded at least partially in a heat-conducting resin (7), the article comprising a body (8) and an envelope (9) encasing the body at least partially, the envelope being at least partially in contact with the resin and separating the body of the article from the resin, the envelope comprising at least one mechanical line of weakening extending outside the resin, the line of weakening (15) comprising one of a succession of perforations in the envelope and a thread (20) arranged such that the action of pulling the thread is cutting the envelope, the method comprising the step of extracting the body from the envelope, the envelope remaining attached to the resin during the extraction of the body from the envelope.
A device (1), comprising:
- a heat-conducting resin;
- and
- an article at least partially embedded in the resin and comprising a body and an envelope encasing the body at least partially, the envelope being at least partially in contact with the resin and separating the body of the article from the resin, the envelope comprising at least one mechanical line of weakening extending outside the resin;
- a vessel and a cover;
- the article being removably disposed in the vessel so that both the envelope and the vessel are at least partially in contact with the resin;
- the envelope of the article comprising at least one portion integral with the cover.
A device, comprising:
- a heat-conducting resin;
- and
- an article (2) at least partially embedded in the resin (7) and comprising a body and an envelope at least partially encasing the body;
- the envelope being at least partially in contact with the resin and comprising at least one mechanical line of weakening extending outside the resin;
- the line of weakening (15) comprising one of a succession of perforations in the envelope and a thread (20) arranged such that the action of pulling the thread is cutting the envelope.
An energy storage device, comprising:
- a heat-conducting resin;
- and
- an energy storage cell at least partially embedded in a resin (7) and comprising a body and an envelope at least partially encasing the body;
- the envelope being at least partially in contact with the resin and comprising at least one mechanical line of weakening extending outside the resin;
- the line of weakening comprising one of a succession of perforations in the envelope and a thread (20) arranged such that the action of pulling the thread is cutting the envelope.
