Bollinger applies for a patent for the battery pack, which can be configured into battery packs of different sizes and capacities

According to foreign media reports, electric truck startup Bollinger Motors believes that its battery packs developed for upcoming electric vehicles should be protected by law. On October 15, local time, the company announced that it is applying for a patent for the battery pack, and the patent includes innovative technologies for mechanical, electrical and system design. The company's CEO Robert Bollinger said in a statement that the company's design team has created a battery pack with high-strength structural features, excellent cooling performance and the most advanced software. Such structural features include a central I-beam surrounded by battery modules. The I-beam has channels filled with cooling liquid that can pump the cooling liquid into the battery pack to remove heat from the battery modules. This type of battery module is not an integrated battery, but a 35-kWh battery 'stringThe smallest battery pack has a capacity of 35kWh. Of course, it can also be configured into 70, 105, 140, and 175kWh or even higher battery packs, and this type of battery pack can simultaneously meet the configuration of 350 to 700 volts. CEO Bollinger also said that such battery strings are essentially independent battery packs, and if they are 'droppedBollinger also uses a self-developed battery management system (BMS) to handle various numbers of 35-kWh battery 'stringsBollinger said that the high-strength structural features, excellent cooling performance and the most advanced software are enough to make their battery packs unique, and thus obtain a patent. The company’s first two models, the B1 sport utility vehicle and B2 pickup, have a starting price of US$125,000 and are expected to be delivered for the first time in early 2021. Bollinger said that the company will start building battery packs for electric vehicles next year and allow such battery packs to be put into commercial use independently.
