iQ Power: Patent Application for New Generation of Parts For Electrolyte
Mixing
Zug/Switzerland, 28 November 2012 - iQ Power AG (ISIN: CH0020609688, WKN:
A0DQVL, Symbol: IQPB), developer and marketer of technology and its
licenses for environmentally friendly and technologically advanced
automotive batteries for automobiles, announces the patent filing for the
New Generation of electrolyte mixing parts, 'iQP2'.
The new design of iQ Power mixing parts is based conceptually and
structurally on the existing iQP1 parts. The new design is however a
significant improvement on the previous one. The improvements include a
better and faster elimination of acid stratification in the battery. Acid
segregation or stratification is a leading cause for battery failure. In
addition, the iQ Power patented mixing device creates a small cooling
effect in the battery cell, which can be important in hot climates.
The New Generation improvements also include a simpler and more robust
design for better quality and reliability in the production process and a
reduction of cost for tooling changes. The patent application is subject to
approval of the patent bureau.
Due to the fact that iQ Power now has Licensees on 4 continents, who
produce batteries for differing markets and with differing methods, it is
important to have a design that works in very different manufacturing
environments and does not require special assembly skills or tight
tolerances.
The details of the new technology will be made available only to Licensees
of iQ Power technology and not be shown or advertised by iQ Power AG.
With the new generation of mixing devices, iQ Power continues its Patent
Pipeline Strategy, in which continually new developments are patented to
prolong the life of patent protection and give more value to its Licensees.
