  • Publication number: 20090220850
    Abstract: A liquid-cooled battery, in particular in the form of an energy store for an electrical drive in a motor vehicle is provided. The battery has a plurality of storage cells 2 and at least one volume 4 which makes thermally conductive contact with the storage cells 2 and through which a cooling medium can flow. Each of the storage cells 2 has a safety valve 12 which opens the storage cell when a predetermined media pressure in it is exceeded, and connects the volume of the storage cell to the surrounding area. The safety valve 12 is arranged in the storage cell 2 and the storage cell 2 is arranged with respect to the volume 4 through which the cooling medium can flow such that a connection is produced between the volume 4 through which the cooling medium can flow, and the interior of the storage cell 2 if the safety valve 2 is operated.
