Patent number: 12199301Abstract: A drive battery for a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, includes a housing, which has a plurality of partial regions, wherein one or more cell modules are respectively arranged in a first partial region and in a second partial region. A composite component is arranged between the first partial region and the second partial region in order to separate the partial regions. The composite component has a profile element of fiber-reinforced plastic, a foam body of a compressible foam and/or a silicone mat.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2021Date of Patent: January 14, 2025Assignee: Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AktiengesellschaftInventors: Maximilian Müller, Ralf Keller

Publication number: 20240387934Abstract: A battery cell module having a housing and a plurality of battery cells and separating elements. The battery cells are arranged in a stack with a separating element interposed between each pair of adjacently arranged battery cells. The stack is arranged in the housing. The battery cells each include, at one of their end regions, at least one cell connector protruding out of the respective battery cell. The battery cells of the stack are arranged in the housing such that the end regions with the cell connectors face toward an end side of the housing. At least one sealing element or a plurality of sealing elements is or are provided, which sealingly abuts or abut, firstly, the end regions of the battery cells and, secondly, the separating elements, wherein the cell connectors protrude from the at least one sealing element or sealing elements.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 14, 2024Publication date: November 21, 2024Applicant: Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AktiengesellschaftInventors: Christopher Volkmer, Sascha Mostofi, Daniel Fink, Maximilian Müller

Patent number: 11780310Abstract: A motor vehicle includes a traction battery module which has a hermetically sealed module housing in which at least one cell stack pair including a left-hand-side and a right-hand-side cell stack including, in each case, at least two battery cells is accommodated. The traction battery module is arranged in the vehicle floor and extends symmetrically in relation to the vehicle center (M) in the vehicle transverse direction (X). The traction battery module has a bottom wall in a horizontal plane. A gas space is formed in the module housing in the vehicle center (M) and between the left-hand-side cell stack and the right-hand-side cell stack with respect to the vehicle transverse direction (X). The module bottom wall has a degassing element centrally in the vehicle in the region of the gas space.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2021Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Inventors: Philipp Kellner, Sascha Mostofi, Christopher Volkmer, Immanuel Vogel, Adrian Starczewski, Dieter Schiebel, Ralf Keller, Maximilian Müller

Publication number: 20230187772Abstract: A battery for a drive of a motor vehicle includes at least one energy reservoir, a housing, an interior, and a diffuser element. The housing surrounds the interior and the energy reservoir is arranged in the interior. The diffuser element is attached to an exterior of the housing. The diffuser element includes a plurality of diffuser outlets, a plurality of side faces, and a head face. The side faces are arranged between the housing and the head face. A housing outlet is arranged in the housing, which outlet is configured so as to discharge gas out of the interior in an outgoing direction to the diffuser element. The outgoing direction is directed from the housing outlet towards the head face. The diffuser outlets are arranged on the side faces.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2022Publication date: June 15, 2023Applicant: Dr. Ing. h.c. F.

Publication number: 20220336916Abstract: A battery device has at least one battery module including a battery module housing, in which battery module housing battery cells are provided. The battery cells each have a cell envelope with a cell vent. The battery module housing has a battery-module housing wall with battery-module housing vents. The battery-module housing vents are respectively assigned a first closure arrangement, which first closure arrangement closes the assigned battery-module housing vent in a first state (Z1) and opens it in a second state (Z2), in order to allow at least partial venting of gas from the battery module housing through the assigned battery-module housing vent in the second state (Z2) of the first closure arrangement. At least two of the cell vents respectively lie opposite an assigned battery-module housing vent, at least in certain regions.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2022Publication date: October 20, 2022Applicant: Dr. Ing. h.c.
