Abstract

A battery includes at least one battery module having a lower face, a cooling plate having an upper face, and a fixing system configured for the at least one battery module. The at least one battery module is arranged on the upper face of the cooling plate and connected to the cooling plate. The fixing system has at least one fixing strap. The at least one battery module is fixed on the cooling plate by the at least one fixing strap in such a way that the lower face of the battery module is in direct contact with the upper face of the cooling plate. A motor vehicle includes the battery.

Claims (22)

1 . A battery, comprising:

at least one battery module having a lower face,

a cooling plate having an upper face, and

a fastening system arranged on the upper face of the cooling plate and connected to the cooling plate,

wherein the fastening system comprises at least one fixing strap, and the at least one battery module is fastened to the cooling plate by the at least one fixing strap in such a manner that the lower face of the battery module is in direct contact with the upper face of the cooling plate.

2 . The battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one battery module is fastened to the cooling plate by the fastening system with a predefined contact pressure.

3 . The battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the direct contact of the lower face of the battery module with the upper face of the cooling plate is embodied in a heat conducting manner.

4 . The battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one fixing strap is configured in a planar manner.

5 . The battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one fixing strap is made from metal.

6 . The battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one fixing strap is configured from two part-fixing straps that are joined together under tensile stress.

7 . The battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lower face of the battery module directly contacts in its entirety the upper face of the cooling plate.

8 . The battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cooling plate comprises at least two cut-outs that are arranged in a mutually spaced disposition, and the at least one fixing strap is guided through these cut-outs in the manner that a section of the at least one fixing strap is arranged above the cooling plate and at least a further section of the at least one fixing strap is arranged below the cooling plate.

9 . The battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one fixing strap is fastened using a fastening mechanism to the cooling plate.

10 . A motor vehicle, comprising:

a battery including:

at least one battery module having a lower face,

a cooling plate having an upper face, and

a fastening system arranged on the upper face of the cooling plate and connected to the cooling plate,

wherein the fastening system comprises at least one fixing strap, and the at least one battery module is fastened to the cooling plate by the at least one fixing strap in such a manner that the lower face of the battery module is in direct contact with the upper face of the cooling plate,

wherein the battery is connected to a drive system of the motor vehicle.

11 . The battery as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the predefined contact pressure is at least 3 bar.

12 . The battery as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the predefined contact pressure is at least 5 bar.
