Claims (16)

1. A battery arrangement for a motor vehicle, comprising:

a first electrical energy store;

a second electrical energy store;

a charging connection with a positive pole and a negative pole;

a supply connection with a positive pole and a negative pole;

a first switch that connects a positive pole of the first electrical energy store to the positive pole of the supply connection;

a second switch that connects a negative pole of the first electrical energy store to the negative pole of the supply connection;

a third switch that connects a positive pole of the second electrical energy store to the positive pole of the supply connection;

a fourth switch that connects a negative pole of the second electrical energy store to the negative pole of the supply connection;

a fifth switch that connects the positive pole of the first electrical energy store to the negative pole of the second electrical energy store;

a sixth switch that connects the negative pole of the first electrical energy store to the negative pole of the charging connection; and

a seventh switch that connects the positive pole of the second electrical energy store to the positive pole of the charging connection.

2. The battery arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the battery arrangement is switchable into a first operating state when the fifth switch, the sixth switch, and the seventh switch are closed.

3. The battery arrangement according to claim 2 , wherein the battery arrangement is switchable into a second operating state when the first switch, the second switch, the third switch, and the fourth switch are closed.
