Abstract: A motor vehicle including a battery which includes a plurality of battery cells, a frame component having at least one hollow profile with a plurality of intake apertures, and a plurality of gas-discharging elements arranged on the plurality of battery cells to guide a flow of gas from the battery cells through the intake apertures into the hollow profile.

Abstract: An electrical power storage unit for motor vehicles, having a housing comprising an electrical battery cell pack in a first housing section and an electrical circuit therefor in a second housing section separated from the first housing section and separately openable, wherein the second housing section has at least one separated and independently openable maintenance region, which—with the exception of an optional contact-protected high-voltage fuse—does not comprise any electrical circuit components operating above a predetermined low-voltage limit, preferably 60 V DC.

Abstract: A high-voltage battery comprising a number of cells (2) that are arranged in rows, a support structure (3), and a cover plate on which high-current connectors (24) for the individual cells and a cell monitoring unit (9) are mounted. In order to reduce production, assembly, and logistics costs, the cover plate (6) is embodied as a multilayer printed board encompassing at least two conducting layers (15, 17). The first conducting layer (15) is mounted on the side of the printed board facing the cells (2) and has a considerable thickness in order to form the high-current connectors (24), while the second conducting layer (17) has a small thickness and forms the connecting lines (20) to the cell monitoring unit (9). The two layers (15, 17) are interconnected at certain points by means of conducting bores (19) that penetrate the printed board.
