MOTOR VEHICLE BATTERY

摘要

A motor vehicle battery having at least one battery module (11, 12) with battery cells (13, 14) positioned one behind the other and bounded by first walls (15) at opposite ends of the battery module (11, 12) and by second walls (16) at opposite longitudinal sides of the battery module (11, 12). Bottom ends of the battery cells (13, 14) bearing against a cooling plate (18). The battery cells (13, 14) of the battery module (11, 12) are pressed together between the first walls (15). A dummy cell (22) is positioned between two adjacent battery cells (13, 14) of the battery module (11, 12). A clamping bolt (23) extends through the dummy cell and presses the battery cells (13, 14) of the battery module (11, 12) against the cooling plate (18) in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

1. A motor vehicle battery, comprising: at least one battery module having a plurality of battery cells positioned one behind the other and bounded by first walls at opposite ends of the battery module spaced apart in a longitudinal direction and by second walls at opposite sides of the battery module and extending in the longitudinal direction, the battery cells of the battery module each having a bottom end bearing against a cooling plate, the battery cells of the battery module being pressed together in the longitudinal direction between the opposite ends of the battery module; a dummy cell positioned between two adjacent battery cells of the battery module approximately in the middle of the battery module between the opposite ends; and a clamping bolt extending through the dummy cell and pressing the battery cells of the battery module against the cooling plate in a second direction that runs perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.
