Abstract: A battery arrangement having a housing base arrangement and at least one battery unit which is arranged on the housing base arrangement and is arranged above the housing base arrangement with respect to a first direction and which comprises at least one battery cell. The at least one battery cell has a first side having a releasable degassing opening which is releasable for discharging a gas from the at least one battery cell. The housing base arrangement has at least one predetermined breaking point, which is designed, in dependence on a gas escape of a gas from the degassing opening of the at least one battery cell, to release an opening penetrating the housing base arrangement with respect to the first direction, in order to discharge the gas escaping from the degassing opening of the at least one battery cell through the released opening.

Abstract: A method for determining a quality status of at least one component which is used during a setting process, in which a battery module is provided, which is place in a receptacle region of a battery housing having a housing base on a heat conducting compound located on the housing base and is pressed in the direction of the housing base so that the heat conducting compound located between the battery module and the housing base is at least partially distributed. The predefinable force (F) and the distance (z) covered by the battery module during the setting process in the first direction over the time (t) during the setting process are acquired as monitoring variables and the quality status is determined.
