Embodiment Construction

[0026] One or more specific embodiments are described below. In an effort to provide a concise description of these embodiments, not all features of an actual implementation are described in the specification. It will be appreciated that during the development of any such actual implementation, as in an engineering or design project, a number of implementation-specific decisions must be made to achieve the developer's specified goals, such as compliance with system-related and Business-related constraints, which may vary from implementation to implementation. Furthermore, it should be appreciated that such a development effort might be complex and time consuming, but would nevertheless be a routine undertaking of design, production, and fabrication for those of ordinary skill having the benefit of this disclosure.

[0027] The battery systems described herein can be used to provide power to various types of electric vehicles (xEVs) and other high voltage energy storage / consum...

Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to a battery module (20) having an outer housing (30) configured to receive a plurality of electrochemical cells (32), in which the outer housing (30) has a wall (64) including an inner surface (106) facing a cavity formed by the outer housing (30), an outer surface (75) opposite to the inner surface (106), and an opening (62) extending through the wall (64). The battery module (20) also includes a connector barrel (60) configured to be disposed in the opening (62) of the wall (64), wherein the connector barrel (60) has a first open end (70), a second open end (72), and a body (68) forming a hollow interior (154) between the first open end (70) and the second open end (72), the connector barrel (60) has a flange (100) disposed on the body (68) and extending outwardly from the body (68), and the flange (100) has a plurality of ridges (102) configured to abut the wall (64).

Description

Background technique [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to the field of batteries and battery modules. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a connection cartridge provided within a case of a battery module and configured to guide a circuit of the battery module and / or an external processing device. [0002] This section is intended to introduce the reader to various aspects of art that may be related to various aspects of the disclosure described below. This discussion is believed to be helpful in providing the reader with background information to facilitate a better understanding of various aspects of the present disclosure. Accordingly, it should be understood that these statements are to be read in light of this and not as admissions of prior art. [0003] Vehicles that use one or more battery systems to provide all or a portion of the vehicle's power may be referred to as xEVs, where the term "xEV" is defined herein to include all of the fol...
