Smarthn batteries will work longer than the same size: what developers came up with

Apple engineers seek not only to increase the battery capacity, but also to increase its overall efficiency. Apple recently received a patent at the US trademark and patents, according to which the iPhone battery will be improved. It will receive a much larger capacity and longer service life, Gizchina writes. The patent called "Battery elements with protruding at right angles" was presented in September 2021 and was officially published on March 26, 2024.

In its patent documentation, Apple examines in detail the various methodologies for increasing battery performance. The company studies battery separators, folded separators and interconnected batteries to expand the borders of the capacity, going beyond the existing standards. An innovative approach will allow the company to create batteries for iPhone with special connectors, which allow you to place batteries at different angles to effectively solve spatial constraints.

By using a set of connectors with protrusions that act in different directions and even perpendicular to the main direction, the design not only optimizes the use of space, but also improves the structural integrity of the battery, which ultimately leads to increased efficiency. The publication of the patent marks an important milestone on the path of Apple to the revolution in the technology of production of batteries.

It also creates the basis for future iPhone models with more durable batteries. New smartphones will also retain a compact form factor, meeting the growing needs of technically consumed consumers. Earlier, we wrote that an innovative running battery will feed entire cities. The two -chamber running system retained 98. 7% of the capacity after a thousand cycles of charging. It can store energy for a long time and charge devices on a different scale.
