A liquid powered assembly including a housing; a removable bottom base; a seal; an electrolyte battery assembly; and, a liquid powered device is described. The housing includes an upper end portion and a lower end portion. The housing has a volume for containing an electrolyte solution. The lower end portion has a fluid inlet. The removable bottom base has a bottom surface for supporting the liquid powered assembly. A seal engages the housing and the removable bottom base to help contain the liquid. An electrolyte battery assembly is positioned within the housing. A liquid powered device is operably attached to the electrolyte battery assembly. To function, the housing and the removable bottom base are detached relative to each other and the housing is turned substantially upside down to allow filling of the housing via the inlet. The bottom base is then attached to the housing and the assembly is then inverted for use.

A manufacturing method for a secondary battery and a manufacturing apparatus for a secondary battery that are applicable to a secondary battery in which an electrolyte solution injection hole has a diameter of 1.5 mm or more are provided. The secondary battery includes a battery case including a cover plate provided with an electrolyte solution injection hole, and a sealing member sealing the electrolyte solution injection hole. The manufacturing method includes a preparing step and a press-fitting step. The preparing step is preparing a cell in which, after an electrolyte solution is injected to the battery case through the electrolyte solution injection hole, the sealing member is disposed on the electrolyte solution injection hole. The press-fitting step is press-fitting the sealing member into the electrolyte solution injection hole while applying press-fitting load and ultrasonic vibration with a frequency of 20 kHz or more in parallel to a press-fitting direction.

An apparatus includes a battery stack including a plurality of alternating anodes and cathodes, wherein each of the anodes is positioned between first and second separators, and wherein a tab of the anode extends out from between the first and second separators, and an edge tape extending across a top of the first and second separators.

Provided is a battery pack including: a cell module assembly including a plurality of cell modules arranged at a predetermined interval; a pack structure surrounding and supporting the cell module assembly; a coolant pipe contacting the plurality of cell modules; and an absorbing body provided in the pack structure and configured to absorb a coolant when the coolant leaks in the coolant pipe.

The present invention relates to safety methods and mechanisms for treating electrolyte solutions in batteries, specifically metal-air batteries. Systems and methods of the invention protect the battery, protect the battery operator and protect the environment from potential material hazards. This invention provides materials for arresting a potentially hazardous electrolyte solution by forming solid or gel porous polymer structures. The polymer porous structures consume or confine the electrolyte solution thus preventing its hazardous potential.

A battery pack prevents an inflow of a leaking coolant. The battery pack includes a housing, in which at least one battery cell or battery module is mounted, a heat exchanger provided in the housing for cooling the battery cell or the battery module, and seal provided between the heat exchanger and the inner surface of the housing for preventing coolant leaking from the heat exchanger from flowing into a space in which the battery cell or the battery module is placed, whereby the stability and reliability of the battery pack are improved.

The power storage device includes power storage units arranged with a conductive plate interposed therebetween in the vertical direction, each of the power storage units includes an electrode stack including bipolar electrodes stacked with a separator interposed therebetween, and a sealing member provided around the electrode stack so as to seal a housing space formed between adjacent electrodes of the electrode stack. At least one of the power storage units is provided with an overhang member on an outer peripheral surface of the sealing member. The overhang member includes an inclined portion that extends from the outer peripheral surface of the sealing member toward the outside of the power storage unit and inclines downward as it leaves away from the outer peripheral surface of the sealing member, and a top portion formed at a lower end of the inclined portion.
