Battery storage device with temperature control for vehicles
The granted patent US12021211B2 describes a battery storage device specifically designed for vehicles. This device features a housing that encloses one or more battery modules and incorporates temperature-control elements that facilitate the regulation of temperature within the battery modules. These temperature-control elements are equipped with supply and discharge connections for a temperature-control medium, which are positioned outside the housing's interior. Additionally, the device includes covering elements that seal these connections, ensuring the integrity of the temperature-control system. The covering elements are bonded to connection stubs of the temperature-control elements, and the manufacturing process for these elements may involve roll bonding techniques.
Further claims detail the structural components of the battery storage device, including various wall elements and guide elements that assist in the positioning and stability of the temperature-control elements. The design allows for the connection stubs to extend perpendicularly from the temperature-control elements, and the covering elements may feature adhesive grooves for enhanced bonding. The housing can be constructed from metallic materials, while the covering elements may utilize plastics. The patent also outlines a method for producing the battery storage device, emphasizing the assembly of the housing, temperature-control elements, and sealing mechanisms to ensure effective temperature management for the battery modules within a vehicle context.
