Abstract: A battery housing for a motor vehicle comprising a base part having a base plate and a cover part having a cover plate. The base part and the cover part delimit a receptacle volume for receiving at least one battery module. The two plates are spaced apart by at least one spacer which is disposed inside the receptacle volume and is supported on the two plates. In the region of at least one support of the spacer, the respective plate has a cut-out. The spacer has an insertion portion which projects into the cut-out and is secured on this plate. The insertion portion projects into the cut-out to the maximum extent that the end face of the insertion portion lies flush with the outer side of the plate.

Abstract: A battery housing for a motor vehicle comprising a base part having a base plate and a cover part with a cover plate. The base part and the cover part delimit an accommodation volume for accommodating at least one battery module. The plates are spaced apart by at least one spacer arranged inside the receiving volume and supported on both plates, in that the spacer is supported on at least one of the two plates with its end face. In the region of this support, the plate has an opening. The end face of the spacer extends circumferentially over the edge of the opening in the radial direction inward projecting into the plane of the support of the end face on the plate. The spacer is fastened on this plate.
