Abstract: A cooling plate for the battery cooling of a motor vehicle has a plate body including two plate elements, joined together by soldering and at least one cooling channel for the passage of a cooling fluid as well as a stiffening molding. The cooling channel and the stiffening molding are initially formed together continuously during the manufacture of the plate body by forming a channel in a plate element, by internal high pressure forming. In the soldering process, a channel portion of the channel sealed fluid-tight by a closing element in the form of a press soldering joint. This separates the channel into a cooling channel and a stiffening molding.

Abstract: A heat exchanger plate which has a plate body formed from at least two plate elements and at least one connecting piece for a cooling fluid. The plate body and connecting piece are joined together using soldering. The connecting piece has a joining portion which is joined in a receiving portion of the plate body formed between the plate elements. A solder resist limits the flow of solder when producing the solder connection. The solder resist is able to be formed by a sealing metal, which is arranged on the joining portion of the connecting piece in front of and/behind a solder material applied to the joining portion. The solder resist is able to be formed by an annular bead resting on the end face of the receiving portion.
