Patent number: 11909071Abstract: A vehicle includes a high-voltage battery which has a housing and at least one battery module arranged in the housing that has multiple battery cells which are electrically connected together via a cell contacting system. Each of the battery cells has a battery cell housing with an emergency degassing opening which opens at a specified cell inner pressure and through which hot or burning gas can be leaked out of the interior of the battery cell housing into the housing of the high-voltage battery in the event of a disruption or damage to individual battery cells. The emergency degassing openings face the cell contacting system and/or a wall of the housing of the high-voltage battery. The cell contacting system and/or the wall of the housing of the high-voltage battery is/are provided with a heat protection layer, at least in the regions in which the emergency degassing openings are arranged.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2019Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Bayerische Motoren Werke AktiengesellschaftInventors: Robert Lustig, Philip Raettich, Tobias Schmieg, Frank Tenfelde

Patent number: 11870093Abstract: A vehicle includes a high-voltage battery that has a housing and at least one battery cell arranged in the housing. The battery cell has a battery cell housing with an emergency degassing opening which opens at a specified cell inner pressure and through which hot or burning gas can pass out of the interior of the battery cell housing into the housing of the high-voltage battery in the event of a disruption or damage to the battery cell. The emergency degassing opening faces a housing wall against which hot or burning gas flows in the event of the disruption or damage to the battery cell. The housing wall of the high-voltage battery is designed to be more thermally resistant locally in the region in which the emergency degassing opening is arranged and in which the hot or burning gas flows out of the battery cell housing in the event of a disruption or damage to the battery cell than in the wall regions at a distance from the emergency degassing opening.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2019Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: Bayerische Motoren Werke AktiengesellschaftInventors: Philip Raettich, Frank Tenfelde

Patent number: 11691361Abstract: A method for producing a component includes incorporating a molding compound into a tool for producing the component, where the molding compound includes an artificial resin as a matrix and a filler material embedded in the matrix. The method includes compressing the molding compound by the tool and by the compressing forming the molding compound to a green product. The method further includes providing the green product while disposed in the tool with a layer in a sub-region by incorporating a liquid material for producing the layer into the tool and applying the liquid material to the sub-region. The liquid material is a metallic material and the layer is an electromagnetic shielding on the green product.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2020Date of Patent: July 4, 2023Assignee: Bayerische Motoren Werke AktiengesellschaftInventors: Philip Raettich, Matthias Wagner

Publication number: 20230198086Abstract: A battery housing includes a valve device for pressure equalization and for letting out a hot gas of a battery cell. The valve device has a valve seat in the form of a gas release opening in a housing wall of the battery housing and a valve body. The valve body closes the gas release opening when in a closed position, can be moved by a pressure-difference-induced internal pressure increase into a first open position in which the valve body reversibly opens the gas release opening to provide pressure equalization, and can be moved by a hot-gas-induced internal pressure increase into a second open position in which the valve body irreversibly opens the gas release opening to let out the hot gas.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2021Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventor: Philip RAETTICH
