Abstract: The present invention relates to a battery module consisting of battery cells and a cooling module comprising multiple tiers, the cooling module being designed to hold the battery cells, such as lithium-ion batteries. The cooling module consists of at least one first and one second side part, each side part having at least one flow channel, and of multiple substantially flat elements which extend along planes between the side parts. An internal area is formed between neighbouring flat elements, said internal areas being designed to hold the battery cells.

Abstract: The invention relates to method for the manufacture of a cooling module in the form of a body having an inner space for the reception of battery cells, wherein the body has one or more cooling passages extending in parallel to one another between an inlet region and an outlet region and is formed at least partly from a length or from a plurality of lengths of a hollow section.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a battery management system for a battery module comprising a plurality of cells connected to one another which each have a positive and a negative terminal. The invention is in particular concerned with a battery management system which is used with accumulators especially lithium ion cells for forming a traction battery or a traction battery module for vehicles with an electrical drive drain. Such battery modules can for example be used in electrical vehicles, hybrid vehicles with combustion engines or hybrid vehicles with fuel cells, can however also be used for other purposes, for example for stationary applications or for small traction applications, such as for example in a wheelchair.

Abstract: The invention relates to a battery module which consists of a plurality of interconnected cells that have respective positive and negative terminals. The module is characterized in that the flat terminals have cut-out sections and are arranged in two rows in such a manner that the short ends of adjacent flat terminals of a respective row face each other, in that the terminals of every row are maintained at a distance to each other by specifically arranged, conductive spacer elements and optionally insulating spacer elements, in that within the module, the cells are electrically connected in series and/or in parallel by specifically arranging their positive and negative terminals in the one or the other row, and in that the terminals of every row and the interposed spacer elements are pressed against each other by a bracing device.
