  • Patent number: 10862179
    Abstract: A high-voltage accumulator battery module includes a first connection component adjacent to a plate-shaped frame component remotely from a heat sink. The first connection component includes at least one of: an inlet first connection unit having a fluid inlet connected to a cooling channel system via an inlet fluid line connecting the fluid inlet to an inlet second connection unit connected to the cooling channel system, and an outlet first connection unit having a fluid outlet connected to the cooling channel system via an outlet fluid line connecting the fluid outlet to an outlet second connection unit connected to the cooling channel system. A second connection component is adjacent to the plate-shaped frame component at the heat sink side, and includes at least one of: the inlet second connection unit, and the outlet second connection unit. A clamping device clamps the first and second connection components against each other.

  • Patent number: 10644366
    Abstract: A method is provided for producing an assembly for an energy supply system, having an energy storage module and a plate-shaped cooling element. Between a contact side of the energy storage module and a contact side of the cooling element, a deformable, adhesive heat conducting layer is applied. Subsequently, the energy storage module and the cooling element are pressed together, wherein by way of the heat conducting layer, a dimensionally stable adhesive connection between the energy storage module and the cooling element is produced, which permanently connects the energy storage module to the cooling element. By way of the adhesive connection, the contact side of the energy storage module is bonded with the contact side of the cooling element in a planar, material-fit, durable, and dimensionally stable manner such that the energy storage module and the cooling element form a structural unit.

  • Publication number: 20180358666
    Abstract: A battery cell module, in particular for a motor vehicle, includes a first battery cell package having at least one battery cell, which has a first cooler connection surface, and a cooling element intended for cooling of the first battery cell package. The cooling element has a first cooling surface facing the first cooler connection surface. The battery cell module is characterized in that a first voltage-insulating layer and/or a first thermally conducting layer is or are arranged between the first cooler connection surface and the first cooling surface, forming a direct, cohesive connection of the first cooler connection surface to the first cooling surface.

  • Publication number: 20170346142
    Abstract: A battery module is provided for a high-voltage accumulator of an electrically drivable motor vehicle, having one electric storage cell, two plate-shaped frame components which are arranged on the end faces and between which the electric storage cell is arranged, one plate-shaped heat sink with at least one cooling channel system which is connected to the electric storage cells in a thermally conductive manner, one fluid inlet which is communicatively connected to the cooling channel system via one first fluid connection, and one fluid outlet which is communicatively connected to the cooling channel system via at least one second fluid connection. The fluid inlet and the fluid outlet are arranged adjacently to a respective plate-shaped frame component remotely from the heat sink. To reduce the assembly complexity associated with the assembly, the battery module has at least one clamping device.
