Abstract
A rechargeable battery with elastically compliant housing includes a housing and at least one battery cell. The housing includes a pair of substantially rigid end plates and an elastically compliant structure joining the end plates so that the end plates are oriented in respective planes that are substantially parallel to each other and define a gap there between. Each battery cell is contained in the housing in the gap between the end plates and includes an anode, a cathode, and a separator between the anode and the cathode. The elastically compliant structure joins the end plates and includes an elastic component that exhibits elastic expansion greater than 3% along an axis orthogonal to the planes in which the end plates are oriented.
