  • Publication number: 20230327276
    Abstract: A battery module arrangement for a high-voltage battery of a motor vehicle, which includes a battery module having at least one battery cell, which includes a cell housing having a releasable degassing opening, and includes a a degassing channel, which has a channel opening and is connected to the degassing opening of the at least one battery cell, so that a gas escaping from the battery cell through the degassing opening is at least partially introducible through the assigned channel opening into the degassing channel. The battery cell includes a connecting element for connecting the battery cell to the degassing channel. The connecting element has a tube which is arranged on the cell housing and encloses the degassing opening, and which has a tube end facing away from the cell housing, which protrudes through the assigned channel opening into the degassing channel.

  • Patent number: 11486506
    Abstract: A safety valve for a housing, for releasing a housing opening of the housing if a defined burst pressure is reached or exceeded in the housing. It is provided here that in a base body of the safety valve including an elastomer, a receptacle groove that is continuous in the circumferential direction is formed for the formfitting accommodation of a retaining web of the housing. The disclosure furthermore relates to an energy accumulator for storing electric energy.

  • Publication number: 20210265695
    Abstract: A battery for a motor vehicle the battery includes a plurality of battery cells arranged in an interior of a battery housing. The battery housing includes a housing cover having a layer composite, which includes an electromagnetically shielding envelope layer and a metal plate arranged thereon. The metal plate is thermally and/or mechanically more stable than the envelope layer and faces toward the interior of the battery housing, so that the envelope layer is protected from a gas jet and/or fire jet escaping from the respective battery cell in case of damage.
