Abstract: A battery system includes: a battery pack including a plurality of battery cells, each having a pair of electrode terminals and a venting valve at a terminal side thereof, the terminal side of each of the battery cells facing a first side of the battery pack in a z-direction; a cell contacting unit (CCU) carrier on the terminal side of each of the battery cells; and a heat resistant cell protection cover arranged between the CCU carrier and the battery cells. The heat resistant cell protection cover covering the venting valves of the battery cells and being configured to rupture if venting products are ejected through a venting valve from an inside of one of the battery cells.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electric machine (1) having: a rotor (3); a stator (2); multiple winding pieces (5) which are in the form of hollow conductors, form different coils of a winding (4) of the electric machine (1) and are each part of a coolant circuit of the electric machine (1); and multiple external phase connections (L1-L3) which are electrically connected to the winding pieces (5). According to the invention, a hydraulic connection part (15) to which a number of the winding pieces (5) are hydraulically connected, and a seal (27) which has multiple passages (28), in each of which an end portion (8) of one of the winding pieces (5) is situated, are provided, the hydraulic connection part (15) and the seal (27) having opposing surfaces (29, 30) which rest against each other in order to ensure sealing of the individual connections of the winding pieces (5) to the hydraulic connection part (15).

Abstract: The invention relates to an electric machine (1) having a rotor (3), a stator (2) and several rigid winding pieces (5) formed as hollow conductors, which form various coils of a winding (4) of the electric machine (1) and are each part of a cooling circuit of the electric machine (1). According to the invention, the winding pieces (5) each have at least one lateral tap (34) in the region of their end sections (8), via which tap a coolant can be fed into the winding pieces (5) or removed from the winding pieces (5).
