  • Publication number: 20140036411
    Abstract: The invention relates to a storage unit. The storage unit has at least one energy store, wherein the energy store has a positive and a negative electrical connecting terminal. The energy store is designed to be charged and discharged with electrical energy via the positive and the negative electrical connecting terminal. According to the invention, the storage unit has an electrically conductive contact rail which is at least indirectly connected to the positive connecting terminal, and an electrically conductive contact rail which is at least indirectly connected to the negative connecting terminal. The contact rails are each connected to at least one external electrical connecting terminal of the storage unit. The contact rails are each electrically connected to the respective connecting terminal of the energy store by means of an electrically conductive fibrous web or a strand comprising a plurality of individual lines.
