  • Patent number: 9972872
    Abstract: A battery system having at least one battery cell, an absorption element, and a temperature-control system having a liquid temperature-control medium configured to cool and/or heat the battery cells in a battery housing, and a motor vehicle having such a battery system.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 11, 2013
    Date of Patent: May 15, 2018
    Assignee: SAMSUNG SDI CO., LTD.
    Inventors: Peter Dämon, Georg Eichberger
  • Patent number: 9761887
    Abstract: An energy storage apparatus having a housing, a plurality of battery cells, a temperature-control system with a liquid temperature-control medium for cooling and/or heating the battery cells in the housing. An absorbent element is arranged spatially between the battery cells and the housing such that any temperature-control medium escaping from the temperature-control system is absorbed by the absorbent element. The absorbent element is separated from the battery cells by an electrically insulating layer, the electrically insulating layer being impermeable to the temperature-control medium.

  • Patent number: 9634362
    Abstract: A safety device for a vehicle having a battery system with a plurality of battery cells, a method for controlling the safety device, and a system that includes the safety device and the battery system. The safety device includes an electronic unit; a first device configured to detect an insulation resistance between components of the battery system and a reference potential, which components are connected in an electrically conductive manner to at least one battery cell; a second device configured to supply and/or discharge heat to and/or from the battery cells via a heat transfer medium which circulates in at least one circular flow pattern; and at least a first cut-off valve configured to interrupt the circular flow path of the heat transfer medium and which is actuated by the electronic unit from an open position into a closed position when the detected insulation resistance is below a predetermined limit value.

  • Patent number: 9356329
    Abstract: A battery system having a plurality of cells in a battery housing, and an absorption device arranged in the battery housing to absorbs fluid that has escaped in the battery housing.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9276242
    Abstract: A battery cell arrangement having a battery cell which is in the form of a film cell and includes a flat cell body with two end faces, a flexible cell rim surrounding the cell body, and two contact sections arranged on a rim side of the battery cell. The battery cell arrangement further has a frame arrangement which includes a first frame element and a second frame element which frames the cell body on all sides on the rim. At least one vent opening is provided on a side of the frame arrangement which faces away from the end faces of the cell body, in order to allow fluid, in particular gas, to emerge from the battery cell arrangement in the event of damage.
