Battery with extinguishing device, and motor vehicle

1. A battery for a motor vehicle, having:

a battery wall that encloses a battery interior,

an extinguishing agent reservoir, situated in the battery interior, in which an extinguishing agent is accommodated, and

at least one battery cell that is situated in the battery interior separate from the extinguishing agent,

wherein the extinguishing agent reservoir has a reservoir wall for retaining the extinguishing agent, wherein the reservoir wall contacts the battery cell directly,

wherein the reservoir wall has a first wall temperature at a normal operating temperature of the battery cell, and has a second wall temperature at a limiting operating temperature of the battery cell,

wherein the reservoir wall contains an elastomer and is designed to maintain sealtightness for retaining the extinguishing agent at the first wall temperature, and to be destroyed by the heat at the second wall temperature, wherein the second wall temperature is greater than the first wall temperature,

wherein the reservoir wall may be brought to the second wall temperature by means of the battery cell of the battery, and

wherein the reservoir wall encompasses the contours of electrodes protruding from a top side of the battery cell.

2. The battery according to claim 1 , wherein a portion of the reservoir wall is formed by the battery wall.

3. The battery according to claim 1 , wherein the extinguishing agent reservoir is designed as a pressurized container.

4. The battery according to claim 1 , further comprising a pressure sensor for monitoring an internal pressure in the extinguishing agent reservoir.

5. A motor vehicle having an electric motor and a battery, wherein the battery is designed as the battery according to claim 1 .
