Several patented mechanical design solutions, developed with an aim to increase crashworthiness and vibration isolation in EV battery pack, are discussed. Lastly, mechanical design of the battery pack of the first fully electric bus designed and developed in Australia is presented.
EN IEC 62115:2020/A11:2020 includes many significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition. For instance, a common non-compliance can be found on the battery compartment fasteners, which can easily be noticed by the European authorities in market surveillance, as shown in the example on the right.
It''s rare in any application to drop a battery. But when a battery tumbles from a side-extraction truck, it only falls a few inches. A battery crashing down from a gantry crane is a much more disastrous accident. Battery compartments that open into a truck''s flank are easier to clean and service. With the spark-proof, poly-sleeved rollers
After selecting a battery and performing required load testing,the enclosure and mounting schemes are developed. Here are some of our tips and best practices for developing battery mounting schemes:
Poron urethane foam is an excellent material for battery compartment pads since it is formulated to rebound (compression set resistant) consistently over a long period of time. Materials such as polyethylene foam take a compression set readily, especially at higher than ambient temperatures. Rogers Poron foam also has a UL 94 flame rating (thickness

Opening the battery compartment does not directly affect the speed at which a battery charges. The primary purpose of opening the compartment is to ensure safety and maintain the health of the battery. When
Battery compartment kit, 3 x AA For direct installation in front panels or case walls. Easy battery replacement. Battery compartment lid for snap-in and/or screw-on mounting. Assembly: Screwed to bracket from inside. Alternatively with adhesive foil, on request. Recommended for 3 mm wall thickness where a recess of 1.5 mm is necessary, for the
Tolerance: The battery compartment should be large enough to allow installation without mechanical stress or damage. 3. Swelling: The mentioned expansion must always be taken into account. For this, a corresponding clearance is to be built into the battery compartment. 4. Smoothness: Sharp edges or burrs should be avoided or smoothed out. The
Multiply the number of cells in the series pack by the load resistance. Multiply the number of cells in the pack by the “minimum voltage per cell to pass”. Dimensional: ANSI and IEC industry standard dimensions should be used when designing a battery compartment to avoid battery fit problems.
In this study, a design optimization methodology is proposed to optimize the features of mechanical design (e.g. minimization of mass, maximization of minimum natural frequency and minimization of maximum deformation) of the battery pack enclosure. The proposed methodology is comprised of four phases.
Firstly, cross-members can be used to divide the battery pack into multiple compartments. The packaging design presented by US Patent No. 8663824 also demonstrated how a central battery pack member can be employed to further separate the right and the left compartments in addition to providing a channel for connecting power and data lines.
This solution is also one of the most interesting from the point of view of the battery pack protection in case of a lateral impact and for easy serviceability and maintenance.
Positive connection between frame and the battery pack is maintained through tensioning bolts. The arrangement uses two types of damping pads: flat and L-shaped, to absorb vibration and prevent movement of the modules with respect to one another along the Z -axis. The L-shaped damping pads are placed adjacent to each of the corner connectors.
Restraining the battery link bars and clearance for the pressure relief vents of the cells are also considered in the design. The design includes the electrical accessories (BMS, contactors, sensors, etc.) required for internal and external interfaces, all mounted in a position to optimise packaging, function and safe operation.
