Problems solved by technology

Although useful for its purpose, the device in the '203 patent only discloses a single capacitive battery "isolated from each other in a simple manner"
(See U.S. Patent No. 4,488,203, Col. 2, Lines 3-5) Additionally, while capable of being stacked to form multiple capacitor cells in series, the device in the '203 patent requires significantly more space and creates additional weight that a fully integrated multiple capacitor battery in a single component does not

example 1

[0066] The double-layer capacitor energy storage device consists of six cells. The structure is shown in Figure 1-5. The batteries are connected into three battery packs connected in series. Each battery pack consists of two bipolar connected cells. Each cell consists of: an anode and cathode, a proton-conducting polymer membrane between the electrodes, a single-layer carbon / plastic composite conductive film, and common and terminal current collectors. The anode and cathode consist of high surface area carbon powder and an aqueous solution of sulfonic acid. The current collectors include a first layer of conductive carbon composite thin film and a second outer metal layer, the first layer being in contact with the outer electrodes of each battery pack. The dimensions of the part are 54 x 34 x 0.5mm.

Abstract

An ultra-thin electrochemical multi-cell energy storage device is provided within a single lightweight flexible casing. The energy storage device utilizes perforated isolating frames to form its internal structure. By adhering multi-layer current collectors to the perforated isolating frames, filling the openings formed therein with electrode material and stacking the current collectors with an electrolyte between the electrodes the assembly generated places the multiple cells in a plurality of stacks and all of the cells may be in series, parallel or some combination thereof by virtue of the assembly's construction. The external current collectors have good lateral conductivity due to their composite structure and provide for pressure insensitive interfacial contacts. The energy storage device advantageously exhibits low resistance, low ESR, and a high voltage / capacity while preferably remaining less than one millimeter thick.
