Abstract: A method for producing a battery module including a plurality of prismatic battery cells and/or a plurality of battery cells in the form of pouch cells includes, in a first method step, a force acting on a respective battery cell is detected in order to form a defined width of the battery cell. In a second method step, the plurality of battery cells are arranged adjacent to one another in a longitudinal direction of the battery module, and a compensating element is furthermore arranged between two battery cells arranged directly adjacent to one another. A width and/or a deformability of the compensating element is formed such that, when a defined total width of the battery module is formed, a defined force acts on a respective battery cell.

Abstract: A method for producing a battery module, having a plurality of prismatic battery cells and/or a plurality of battery cells in the form of pouch cells, includes in a first method step detecting a width of a battery cell when a defined force is applied to the respective battery cell. In a second method step, the plurality of battery cells are arranged adjacent to one another in a longitudinal direction of the battery module, and a compensating element is arranged between two battery cells arranged directly adjacent to one another. A width of the compensating element is formed in such a way that a sum of the widths of the two battery cells arranged directly adjacent to one another and the width of the compensating element has a defined value, so that ultimately the battery module has a defined overall width.

Abstract: A battery pack (1) includes a housing (2) and an array of electrochemical cells (80) disposed in the housing (2). The housing (2) includes a container (3) and a lid (30) that closes an open end of the container (3). The container (3) has a base (4), a sidewall (8) that surrounds the base (4), and a spring plate (110) disposed inside the sidewall (8) between the cells (80) and the sidewall (8). The spring plate (110) is free standing within the container (3) and applies a spring force to the cell array that restrains the cells (80) along an axis normal to the surface of the spring plates (110). The lid (30) includes inwardly-protruding pins (50, 60) that further restrain the cells (80) within the housing (2).

Abstract: A module housing (11) for a battery module (10) having at least one battery cell (12) exhibiting a first substantially L-shaped housing side wall (14) with at least one clip connection (17), and a second substantially L-shaped housing side wall (14) with at least one clip connection (17) and two housing plates (15) which can be arranged on the battery module (10) on the end face, as a result of which the module housing is closable on the end face. At least the two housing side walls (14) can be connected to one another mechanically in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting manner by means of clip connections (17), as a result of which a cuboid module housing (11) can be produced.
