  • Patent number: 11981217
    Abstract: A system for a drive energy store of a hybrid or electric vehicle is provided. The system includes a receiver which is designed to receive state information of the drive energy store, the state information specifying whether a defect is present or imminent in the drive energy store; and a charging controller, which is designed to adjust a maximum charging voltage and/or a maximum state of charge for a charging process of the drive energy store by a recovery mechanism and/or a load point shift and/or an external charging station to a reduced value if the state information indicates that the defect is imminent.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20210028430
    Abstract: A cell connector for a battery module of a motor vehicle for electrically connecting cell poles of at least two battery cells which are stacked in a stacking direction to form a cell block is designed as an L-profile-shaped, slotted angled strip which can be arranged on an edge that is formed between a top side and a side region of the cell block. The angled strip has a first angle region, which is oriented parallel in relation to the top side and a second angle region, which is oriented parallel in relation to the side region. The first angle region has at least two strip-like contact elements for making contact with the cell poles, and the second angle region has a strip-like connecting element for connecting the contact elements.
