CELL MODULE ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING CELL MODULE ASSEMBLIES

A cell module assembly includes a first frame having a first plurality of pockets, a second frame spaced apart from the first frame and having a second plurality of pockets, a plurality of lithium-ion battery cells coupled to and extending between the second frame and the first frame, a first collector plate electrically connected to the plurality of lithium-ion battery cells and coupled to the first frame by a first curable adhesive, and a second collector plate electrically connected to the plurality of lithium-ion battery cells and coupled to the second frame by a second curable adhesive. Each one of the plurality of lithium-ion battery cells is received within a respective one of the first plurality of pockets and a respective one of the second plurality of pockets.
