FLEXIBLE BUS BAR, COMPOSITE BUS BAR, POWER STORAGE PACK, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING FLEXIBLE BUS BAR
Provided is a flexible bus bar including at least one folded portion in which one metal member is folded, and a plurality of laminated portions laminated via the folded portion, in which side edges of the plurality of laminated portions provided with the folded portion is formed include a cut portion in which a portion other than the folded portion has been cut.
METHOD FOR LEAD CARBON COMPRESSION MOULDING AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF
The present invention discloses a method for lead carbon compression moulding comprising a first stacking step and a first compressing step so that a lead-carbon electrode is obtained through compressing a lead-carbon sandwich stacked of a lead material and a carbon material. Pressurization of the working environment or heating both the lead material and the carbon material is not required during the procedure. A massive production of lead-carbon electrode at room temperature can be anticipated. The lead-carbon electrode produced thereby enhance tolerance of the battery against instable electric current or voltage, and performance remains steady after multiple times of charge-discharge cycles. The lead-carbon electrode produced thereby demonstrates high potentials for application with low cost, low loss and high capacity.
ELECTRICAL STORAGE MODULE
