  • Patent number: 10651437
    Abstract: In order to specify a battery pack that can be simply produced, that provides sufficient heat dissipation during the assembly and during the operation of the battery pack (10) and a reliable electrical connection between the connection structures (14) and the connection contacts (33, 34) of the battery cells (11), and that copes with the failure of an individual battery cell (11), a battery pack (10) is specified, comprising: at least two battery cells (11), wherein each battery cell (11) has a positive and a negative electrical connection contact (33, 34), wherein a connection structure (14) is associated with at least the electrically positive connection contacts (33) or the electrically negative connection contacts (34) of the battery cells (11), wherein each battery cell (11) is connected to the connection structure (14) by means of at least one connection element (15, 51), wherein a cross-section of each connection element (15, 51) is matched to a predetermined maximum current of a battery cell (11), whe

  • Publication number: 20160149430
    Abstract: A method for adaptively charging rechargeable cells, in particular lithium-ion cells, and a device for charging such cells. In order to propose a method for charging a lithium-based cell/a device for charging a lithium-based cell, where the capacity of the cell is optimally utilised, the charging time is drastically shortened, the durability of the cell is prolonged, a degeneration of a charged cell is practically prevented and/or an increase in capacity of the cell is made possible, a method is proposed which includes pulsed charging of the cell, wherein the charging current IL, during the charging pulses exceeds the nominal charging current ILmax of the cell; and the cell is discharged between the charging pulses by means of load pulses.
