Latest Patents

Parrish is associated with 1 patent: “Manufacturing Systems and Methods for Optimized Curing of Structural Adhesive Materials of Battery Modules.” The invention describes a smart manufacturing system that aligns and compresses a stack of battery cells, positions housing side plates, and injects heat-cured structural adhesive between the plates and the cell stack. A conductive heating system cures the adhesive by heating the side plates, while a thermal conditioning system cools a selected surface of the cell stack. When the monitored cure time reaches a predefined duration, the system stops both heating and cooling.
