Abstract: A battery for a battery-operated motor vehicle may include a housing including a receiving chamber, a module row of at least two battery modules, and a carrier. A respective battery module may include a cooling device through which a fluid is flowable. The cooling device may include two module connections. The carrier may include two fluid ducts through which the fluid is flowable. The module row and the carrier may be arranged parallel and adjacent to one another in the housing. A connecting piece may be secured to the at least one carrier via a substance-to-substance bond. The connecting piece may be arranged facing the module row and may include two fluid nozzles. A first fluid duct may be fluidically connected to a first module connection via a first fluid nozzle. A second fluid duct may be fluidically connected to the second module connection via a second fluid nozzle.
