Patent attributes
A scalable battery module (10, 210) includes a plurality of similarly configured cell groupings (1251, 1851), a plurality of framed heatsinlc assemblies (50, 250), and a plurality of jumper tabs (32, 232). Each cell grouping (1251, 1751) includes a plurality of cell packs (52, 1752) electrically coupled in parallel including a negative terminal (70, 270) and a positive terminal (64, 264). Each plurality of framed heatsink assemblies (50, 250) is disposed between one cell pack (52, 1752) of the plurality of cell packs of each cell groupings (1251, 1751) and an adjacent cell pack (52, 1752) of the plurality of cell packs of each cell grouping (1251, 1751) and includes a thermally conductive sheet portion. Each of the plurality of jumper tabs (32, 232) electrically couples a negative terminal (70, 270) of one of the plurality of cell groupings (1251, 1851) to a positive terminal (64, 264) of an adjacent cell grouping (1251, 1851).
