  • Patent number: 10259304
    Abstract: A battery housing of a motor vehicle traction battery includes at least one base plate, and two side walls which extend parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle and are spaced apart from each other in the transverse direction of the motor vehicle. Formed between the side walls is a number of receiving spaces, within each of which at least one battery module of the traction battery of the motor vehicle is accommodated. A plurality of deformation elements which are spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle are attached to the inner sides of the side walls. The battery modules are arranged in the receiving spaces in such a manner that, in the region of the deformation elements, lateral deformation spaces are formed between the battery modules and the side walls.

  • Publication number: 20180083243
    Abstract: A battery housing for receiving a traction battery has a battery housing part and a cover which together define a receiving region for the traction battery. The cover has a contact surface, and the battery housing part has a contact counter surface, which contact surface and contact counter surface lie against each other in a contact region. A shielding part is provided which extends into a shielding region, which shielding region is arranged between the receiving region and the contact region in order to bring about shielding there. A riveting nut is used to fasten the cover to the battery housing part.

  • Patent number: 8052199
    Abstract: A device for absorbing side forces during a side impact of a motor vehicle has a reinforcing structure (12) with a transversely extending reinforcing beam (14). An end (15) of the reinforcing beam (14) is mounted in a bracket (20) that is fixed to the vehicle. A profile part (30) is at the end (15) of the reinforcing beam (14) and supports the reinforcing beam (14). The profile part (30) is connected firmly to the bracket (20) that is fixed to the vehicle thereby providing improved side impact protection and enhanced safety for vehicle occupants.
