Patent ReferencesBattery package with DC to DC converter Intrinsic safe battery having self test capability Hybrid energy storage system Patent #: 5587250 InventorsAssigneeApplicationNo. 755620 filed on 11/25/1996US Classes:429/3, HAVING PULSE FEATURE429/7WITH NONBATTERY ELECTRICAL COMPONENT ELECTRICALLY CONNECTED WITHIN CELL CASING OTHER THAN TESTING OR INDICATING COMPONENTSExaminersPrimary: Kalafut, StephenAttorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassH01M 016/00AbstractA hybrid energy storage system (10) including a first energy storage device (12), such as a secondary or rechargeable battery, and a second energy storage device (14), such as an electrochemical capacitor. The electrochemical capacitor provides intermittent energy bursts to satisfy the power requires of, for example, pulsed power communication devices. The first and second energy storage devices are coupled to a current controller to assure that pulse transients are not applied to the battery cell as a result of charging the capacitor. |
