  • Patent number: 9455434
    Abstract: A battery system having at least one contact element configured to provide a high level of mechanical stability. The battery system has a plurality of cells with cell poles, the electrical voltage of the cells configured to be tapped by the at least one contact element at the cell poles or at cell connectors that are connected to the cell poles in an electrically conductive manner. The contact element has a first contact element section and a second contact element section.

  • Patent number: 9413086
    Abstract: A voltage tap element configured to tap off the voltage of a battery cell of a battery unit by an electronics unit, a cell supervisory unit having such voltage tap elements, and a battery unit having such a cell supervisory unit, and methods for producing the cell supervisory unit and the battery unit. The voltage tap element is designed as a clip composed of a first metal, with a first end of the clip having a first contact region which establishes a operative connection to the electronics unit, and a second end of the clip having a second contact region for establishing a connection to the battery cell. In the first contact region, the clip is permanently connected to an intermediate piece which is composed of a second metal which differs from the first metal. The intermediate piece is configured for operative connection to the electronics unit by a solder connection using SMD technology.
