  • Patent number: 10930905
    Abstract: The invention relates to a battery module having a plurality of battery cells, in particular lithium-ion battery cells, having a plurality of partitions (4), wherein a battery cell (2) is arranged between two partitions (4), and a spring element (6) is furthermore arranged between two partitions (4) adjacent to a battery cell (2), in particular a tension and/or compression spring element, which is arranged in a manner contacting and/or connected to the two partitions (4) such that a value of a deformation constant (12) of the spring element (6) determines a force transmitted by the two partitions (4) to the battery cell (2).

  • Patent number: 9252619
    Abstract: A method for the resistive charge equalization of battery cells of a battery, includes, in a first step, ascertaining the state of charge of the battery cells ascertained and correlating the battery cells of which the state of charge exceeds a predefined value with a first mask, which permits charge equalization only for a predefined portion of all the battery cells, wherein, then, charge equalization is performed. In a second step, the state of charge of the battery cells is optionally ascertained again and the battery cells of which the state of charge exceeds a predefined value are correlated with a second mask, which differs from the first mask, and wherein, then, charge equalization is performed. As a result, the heat generated during charge equalization is distributed in space and time such that no local overheating of or damage to components occurs and no overtemperature disconnection of the battery occurs.
