Abstract: Disclosed is a pole socket for an energy storage system, having a connecting element with a first end region and with a second end region, a connection element which is arranged on the first end region and which is configured to make electrical contact with electrical consumers, and a contacting element which is arranged on the second end region of the connecting element and which is configured to make electrical contact with a pole shaft. The connection element extends in a first direction of extent proceeding from the connecting element, and wherein the contacting element extends in a second direction of extent proceeding from the connecting element. The second direction of extent runs parallel and in the opposite direction with respect to the first direction of extent, such that the contacting element is arranged offset from the connection element.

Abstract: Disclosed is a connection pole for a rechargeable battery. The connection pole has a connection region for securing a pole terminal to the connection pole, and a securing region for securing the connection pole to a housing part of the rechargeable battery. The connection region is in particular of circular or substantially circular form at least at its end facing the securing region, wherein a circumferential region is provided in an end region, which faces the connection region, of the securing region, which circumferential region at least substantially has a ring shape and, for the purpose of preventing rotation of the connection pole, has on its outer circumference a tooth system projecting radially from the circumferential region. Here, the diameter of the substantially ring-shaped circumferential region is consistently smaller than the diameter of that end of the connection region which faces the securing region.
