Abstract: An electric battery (1) for an electrically or partially electrically driven motor vehicle, movable or stationary unit has a battery housing (5) and a plurality of battery cells (2) arranged therein. According to the invention, the battery housing (5) is made from a material containing silicon and/or calcium and/or rubber and/or silicone to produce such an electric battery (1) with a minimum of economic and technical design effort while ensuring said battery is still highly operationally reliable.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electric battery (1) for a motor vehicle which is electrically or partly electrically driven or a movable or stationary unit, having a battery housing (5) and a plurality of battery cells (2) arranged therein. The aim of the invention is to allow such an electric battery (1) to be produced with minimal costs and technical structural complexity while still having a high degree of operational reliability. This is achieved in that the battery housing (5) is made of an expanded or foamed plastic.

Abstract: A charging station comprising a charging unit and an electrical-energy storage unit is integrated into a trailer, the fixed body of a truck, the interchangeable system of a truck, the interchangeable container of a truck, a van, or a trailer towed by a truck or a car.

Abstract: An indicia-bearing attachment for electrical conductors includes a hollow generally U-shaped housing having a horizontal top wall and a pair of downwardly-depending side walls, thereby to define an open-ended chamber for longitudinally receiving at either end one end of the conductor depending on the orientation of the housing for proper reading of the indicia. In order to maintain the conductor in the chamber adjacent the horizontal top wall, a T-shaped clamp member is pivotally connected between the lower ends of the side walls, two arms of the clamp member being horizontal and colinearly arranged longitudinally in the chamber, and a third arm being vertical and joined to the adjacent ends of the horizontal arms.

Abstract: A modular terminal arrangement for connecting a conductor to a conductive cross bar (6), including a housing (1) formed of insulating material and arranged to transversely receive the cross bar, the housing including a terminal (2) adapted for connection with the conductor, a bus bar (4) connected at one end with the terminal and extending at its other end adjacent the cross bar, and a bridging member (7) adapted to connect the other end of the bus bar with the cross bar. The bridging member includes a pair of parallel spaced leg portions, the bridging member being displaceable between a connecting position in which the leg portions electrically engage the cross rail and extend at their free extremities in electrical engagement within an opening contained in the cross bar other end, and a disengaged position in which the leg portions are isolated from the bus bar.
