Particle Separator for Battery Packs and Battery Back Having a Particle Separator
A particle separator includes an inlet and an outlet where solid particle are separable from a particle-battery gas mixture introduced with overpressure at the inlet by the particle separator and where the battery gas is depressurizable at the outlet. The particle separator further includes a gas channel wound in a screw shape in an axial direction which fluidically connects the inlet to the outlet. The gas channel has a particle emission on an outlet-side end of the particle separator which is opened in a radial direction and through which the solid particles are passable.

DIRECTIONAL VENTING COVER FOR A BATTERY SYSTEM
A battery system for an electric vehicle includes one or more battery modules that include one or more battery cells. Each of the battery cells include a plurality of vents on a first end and oriented in a first direction (e.g., an upward direction). The battery system also includes a touch cover arranged above the first end of the battery cells, wherein the touch cover includes a plurality of opening features configured to direct the gas to flow away from the plurality of battery cells, or away from sensitive components, to a predetermined direction that differs from the first direction. The plurality of opening features direct gas in a second direction different from the first direction. The opening features include louvres, arranged in strips or an array, or other suitable venting openings. The touch cover may be formed by pressing a sheet of material.
AIRCRAFT BATTERY SYSTEMS
An aircraft including a battery pack having a plurality of battery cells arranged to vent into a venting region of the battery pack. A path is defined between the venting region and an exterior of the aircraft, whereby thermal products vented by the cells can exit the aircraft via the path. In some embodiments, the venting region is or is in fluid communication with an air channel through which air flows from an aircraft air inlet to an aircraft air outlet. In other embodiments, the path joins the venting region and an opening in an external surface of the aircraft.
EXHAUST FILTER SYSTEM FOR BATTERY PACK
The present invention discloses an exhaust filter system for a battery pack, including an explosion-proof valve and a filter apparatus. One end of the explosion-proof valve is connected to a battery pack. The other end of the explosion-proof valve is connected to the filter apparatus. The filter apparatus includes an introduction port, a discharge port, a housing, and a filter mechanism. The introduction port and the discharge port are separately disposed at two ends of the housing. The filter mechanism is disposed inside the housing.
