THERMOELECTRIC BATTERY Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC H01L35/28 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to thermoelectrical instrument making, particularly to the design of thermoelectric batteries (TEB). The invention concept is as follows: excluding areas close to the protruding parts of the switch plates, surface of the structure formed by TEB branches is covered by a layer of heat insulating dielectric material. The area not covered by a layer of heat insulating dielectric material is defined as a production thickness of the thermal element branch by ¹/₄ of its height. The surface not covered by a layer of heat insulation is made with shaped staggered key protrusions. Heat removal from cold and hot switch plates and areas close to them is made to containers with melting working agents.

EFFECT: improving efficiency of heat removal (delivery) from hot (cold) TEB contacts.
