Apple filed a patent for a laptop battery that runs weekly

Apple has filed a patent application for an integrated fuel cell system, enabling the laptop to operate "days and weeks without fuel."

Apple invented a multi-week lapptop battery without refueling

One of the biggest complaints about electronic devices is the battery life. From cameras and smartphones to laptops, all can turn off when you're in the middle of work or entertainment. Looks like Apple is looking for ways to handle this problem.

The technology giant has filed a patent application to the US Copyright Office. It is the copyright of the fuel cell system for mobile computing devices. According to the company's documents, this is a battery-powered system that can help laptops run "days, even weeks without fuel."

Maybe someday this Macbook Pro will bring new batteries and use for many days without charging.

In this detailed patent document, Apple describes how to integrate fuel cells into electronic devices without making the device too big or too heavy.Fuel cells are considered a very potential energy technology in the near future . This type of battery generates electricity by combining a fuel, such as hydrogen, with an oxidizing agent, such as oxygen or air.

This technology has received attention in the last few years not only because it can replace batteries, but because it can take advantage of other fuel sources in place of traditional fossil fuels, such as oil and gas. burning. Compared to conventional chemical batteries, fuel cells can produce a much larger source of energy with an equivalent battery size.

1. Fuel cells, energy sources for hydroelectricity

In addition to hydrogen, Apple documents also give some other potential fuel sources, such as sodium borohydride and water, sodium silicate and water, lithium hydride and water, magnesium hydride and water, liquid hydrogen and hydrogen gas compressed .

It should be added that this is not Apple's first patent for fuel cell systems. In 2011, the company registered a similar license for the "mobile computing device" system . In March, the US copyright agency also granted Apple a patent on a fuel cell system for mobile devices.

CNET said Apple has not commented on the information.
