ABSTRACT:
A battery includes a module having a case with a conductive connector mounted on each of two opposed exterior walls. At least one connector includes compliant contacts. The connectors are respectively connected to electroactive material within the case to form positive and negative electrodes. An external connector complimentarily-shaped to the connectors in the case releasably interconnects two like modules together. The external connector may be mounted in a single planar carrier insertable between two adjacent modules. The carrier has guide members formed thereon to facilitate the alignment and positioning of adjacent modules with respect to each other. A voltage tap may be mounted on the external connector to provide an external voltage monitoring tap between two interconnected modules. A thermocouple may be mounted on the carrier for sensing the temperature of the case of an adjacent module. Alternately, one of the connectors is a compliant female-type connector which is co-axially aligned with an outwardly projecting male-type connector to permit two modules to be releasably connected together.
