  • Publication number: 20250249761
    Abstract: The invention relates to a support device for at least one accumulator component of a traction accumulator, which is designed to hold the at least one accumulator component vertically above and horizontally only partially overlapping with at least one cell module of the traction accumulator in an accumulator housing of the traction accumulator. In some implementations, the support device comprises: a holding frame configured to receive the at least one accumulator component; a hot gas trapping device having at least one protective strip for covering the top of the degassing region, which is designed to trap any hot gas escaping from the degassing region of at least one cell of the cell module and to keep it away from the at least one accumulator component.

  • Publication number: 20230158973
    Abstract: A support device for an electrical energy store for arrangement in a storage housing between at least two storage modules of the electrical energy store and for holding the storage modules, which can be fastened to both sides of the support device in the transverse direction, in the storage housing, includes: a beam for fastening to the storage housing, having a bearing face on which holding elements of the storage modules are to be placed; a clamping strip for arrangement on the bearing face of the beam and for clamping the holding elements of the storage modules; and fasteners for fastening the clamping strip to the beam. In an upper side of the clamping strip there are formed depressions which are arranged spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the support device and which are configured to receive the fasteners. The depressions form continuous channels in the transverse direction.

  • Patent number: 7146952
    Abstract: A valve tappet system includes a base body, a lateral section, which forms a guide surface for guiding the base body along an oscillation axis. The anti-rotation element to suppress a rotational or swiveling movement about the oscillation axis. The anti-rotation element has a seat face which sits on the lateral section and a guide body which protrudes beyond the lateral section in the radial direction. Spaced first and second engagement protrusions are provided on the element, and the lateral section is provided with a first and second radial bores assigned to the respective first and second engagement protrusions, which are each engaged in the respective radial bore radially to the oscillation axis.
