Embodiment Construction

[0029] figure 1 A driveline 10 for an electric vehicle is schematically illustrated. While depicted as a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), it should be understood that the concepts described herein are not limited to hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) and may be extended to other electric vehicles, including but not limited to plug-in hybrid electric vehicles vehicles (PHEV), fuel cell electric vehicles and battery electric vehicles (BEV).

[0030] In one embodiment, drivetrain 10 is a power split drivetrain employing a first drive system and a second drive system. The first drive system includes a combination of an engine 14 and a generator 18 (ie, a first electric machine). The second drive system includes at least one motor 22 (ie, a second electric machine), a generator 18 and a battery pack 24 . In this example, the second drive system is considered to be the electric drive system of the powertrain 10 . The first and second drive systems generate torque to drive one or more...

Abstract

An example battery cell for an electric vehicle includes at least one conductive case, and an electrode structure in direct electrical contact with the at least one conductive case. The electrode structure is to selectively provide power to an electric vehicle.

Description

Background technique [0001] The present invention relates generally to housings, and more particularly to electric vehicle battery units having conductive housings. [0002] Generally, electric vehicles differ from conventional motor vehicles in that electric vehicles are selectively driven by one or more electric motors powered by batteries. In contrast, conventional motor vehicles rely solely on an internal combustion engine to propel the vehicle. Electric vehicles may use electric machines in addition to, or in place of, the internal combustion engine. [0003] Example electric vehicles include hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), fuel cell vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, and battery electric vehicles (BEV). The powertrain of an electric vehicle is typically equipped with a battery that stores electrical energy to power the electric machine. The battery can be charged before use. The battery can be recharged during driving via ...
