Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Batterie, insbesondere Batteriezelle, umfassend ein Gehäuse, einen negativ ladbaren Pol, einen positiv ladbaren Pol, einen mit dem negativ ladbaren Pol und/oder positiv ladbaren Pol verbundenen elektrischen Leiter zum Ableiten eines elektrischen Stromes und eine Entgasungsleitung zum Ableiten von Gas oder Dämpfen aus der Batterie. Ferner betrifft die Erfindung ein Batteriemodulsystem und ein Verfahren zur Kühlung von wenigstens einer Batterie.The present invention relates to a battery, in particular a battery cell, comprising a housing, a negatively chargeable pole, a positively chargeable pole, an electrical conductor connected to the negatively chargeable pole and / or positively chargeable pole for deriving an electric current and a degassing line for deriving Gas or steam from the battery.

Stand der TechnikState of the art
In Batterien, z. B. Lithium-Ionen-Batterien, entstehen bei Störungen oder beim normalen Betrieb Gase oder Dämpfe, welche zu einem Überdruck im gasdichten Gehäuse der Batterie führen können. Um ein Platzen der Batterie zu verhindern, werden mittels eines Überdruck- ventils die Gase oder Dämpfe in die Umgebung der Batterie geleitet. Die Ausgasungsöffnung ist, insbesondere bei zylinderförmigen Batterien, im Allgemeinen seitlich an einer Polkappe angebracht. Die austretenden Gase und Dämpfe sind normerweise sehr giftig, so dass diese eingefangen werden müssen. Hierzu ist die gesamte Polkappe von einer Sammelwandung umgeben, um das austretende Gas innerhalb der Sammelwandung in einem Sammelraum auffangen zu können. An die Sammelwandung ist eine Entgasungsleitung angeschlossen, welche die im Sammelraum aufgefangenen Gase ableitet. Der an der Polkappe angeschlossene elektrische Leiter zum Ableiten des elektrischen Stromes von der Polkappe befindet sich somit innerhalb des Sammelraumes und muss durch die Sammelwandung geführt werden. Das gasdichte Einschließen der Polkappe mittels der Sammelwandung ist aufwendig. Ferner muss auch der elektrische Leiter gasdicht durch die Sammelwandung geführt werden. An der Polkappe der Batterie wird viel Wärme abgegeben, so dass sich die Polkappe und auch der nicht nur elektrisch sondern auch thermisch mit der Polkappe verbundene elektrische Leiter stark erwärmen. Der von der Sammelwandung eingeschlossene Sammelraum wirkt jedoch als thermische Isolierung für die Polkappe und den elektrischen Leiter, so das die in der Batterie entstehende Wärme nur unzureichend an der Polkappe und dem elektrischen Leiter abgeleitet werden kann. AufgabeIn batteries, z. As lithium-ion batteries, caused by faults or during normal operation gases or vapors, which can lead to an overpressure in the gas-tight housing of the battery. To prevent the battery from bursting, the gases or vapors are directed into the environment of the battery by means of an overpressure valve. The outgassing opening is, in particular in the case of cylindrical batteries, generally attached laterally to a pole cap. The escaping gases and vapors are normally very toxic, so they must be captured. For this purpose, the entire polar cap is surrounded by a collecting wall in order to be able to catch the escaping gas within the collecting wall in a collecting space. To the Sammelwandung a degassing line is connected, which dissipates the collected gases in the plenum. The connected to the pole cap electrical conductor for dissipating the electric current from the pole cap is thus located within the plenum and must be guided by the Sammelwandung. The gas-tight enclosure of the pole cap by means of the collecting wall is complicated. Furthermore, the electrical conductor must be guided gastight through the collecting wall. A lot of heat is dissipated at the polarity cap of the battery, so that the polar cap and also the electrical conductor connected not only electrically but also thermally with the pole cap heat up considerably. However, the collecting space enclosed by the collecting wall acts as a thermal insulation for the pole cap and the electrical conductor, so that the resulting heat in the battery can be derived only insufficiently on the pole cap and the electrical conductor. task
Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht deshalb darin, einen Batterie, ein Batteriemodulsystem mit mehreren Batterien und ein Verfahren zur Kühlung von wenigstens einer Batterie zur Verfügung zu stellen, so dass die in der Batterie entstehenden Gase und Dämpfe mit einem geringen technischen Aufwand sicher abgeleitet werden können. Ferner soll auch an der Polkappe und dem elektrischen Leiter eine gute Kühlung der Batterie gewährleistet sein.The object of the present invention is to provide a battery, a battery module system with a plurality of batteries and a method for cooling of at least one battery available, so that the gases and vapors arising in the battery can be safely derived with little technical effort , Furthermore, a good cooling of the battery should also be ensured at the pole cap and the electrical conductor.

Eine an der Polkappe 9 befestigte Entgasungsleitung 7 umschließt die Öffnung 8 vollständig, so dass die gesamten aus dem Zwischenraum 10 durch die Öffnung 8 in die Entgasungsleitung 7 strömenden Gase oder Dämpfe in die Entgasungsleitung 7 geleitet werden. Die Entgasungsleitung 7 besteht aus Metall, Gummi oder Kunststoff und ist mit der Polkappe 9 vorzugsweise verschweißt. Die Öffnung 8 und die Entgasungsleitung 7 sind symmetrisch zu einer Symmetrieachse 22 oder einer Symmetrieebene 23 der Batterie 1 ausgebildet. Die Symmetrieebene 23 ist in Fig. 1 und 2 aufgrund der Perspektive lediglich als Gerade dargestellt. Ein Durchmesser 12 des Zwischenraumes 10 senkrecht zu der Längsachse 11 der Batterie 1 ist kleiner als ein Durchmesser 13 der Batterie 1 senkrecht zu der Längsachse 11 der Batterie 1. Die Entgasungsleitung 7 mündet in eine Sammelleitung 29, welche die Gase und Dämpfe weiter ableitet. Der elektrische Strom wird an der Polkappe 9 mittels eines elektrischen Leiters 6, vorzugsweise aus Kupfer, abgeleitet. Der elektrische Leiter 6 ist hierzu mit der Polkappe 9 verbunden. An der Unterseite der Batterie 1 ist ein negativ ladbarer Pol 4 ausgebildet, der auch Bestandteil des Gehäuses 3 ist. Im Bereich der an der oberen Seite der Batterie 1 befindlichen Polkappe 9 sind relativ große Wärmemengen an die Umgebung abzuleiten. Ein Kühlfluid 30, z. B. Luft, kann beispielsweise in axialer Richtung (Fig. 1) oder in radialer Richtung (Fig. 2) unmittelbar zu der Polkappe 9 geleitet werden, um die freizusetzende Wärme optimal ableiten zu können. Der elektrische Leiter 6 ist nicht nur stromleitend, sondern auch thermisch mit der Polkappe 9 verbunden, d. h. auch der elektrische Leiter 6 wird von der Polkappe 9 erwärmt. In besonders vorteilhafter Weise wird auch der elektrische Leiter 6 von dem Kühlfluid 30 Luft umströmt, so dass auch der elektrische Leiter 6 einen Beitrag zur Kühlung der Batterie 1 leisten kann. In Fig. 2 wird eine zweite Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Batterie 1 dargestellt. Die Entgasungsleitung 7 ist an einem Ende 14 mit einem als Außengewinde 16 ausgebildeten Gewinde 15 versehen. An der Polkappe 9 ist ein als Schraubenmutter 18 ausgeformtes Gewindeteil 17 vorhanden. Die Entgasungsleitung 7 und/oder der elektrische Leiter 6 kann damit mittels der Schraubenmutter 18 an der Polkappe 9 angeschraubt werden. Im Übrigen entspricht die zweite Ausführungsform gemäß Fig. 2 der ersten Ausführungsform gemäß Fig. 1.The polar cap 9 is provided with an opening 8. A degassing line 7 attached to the pole cap 9 completely encloses the opening 8, so that the entire gases or vapors flowing out of the gap 10 through the opening 8 into the degassing line 7 are conducted into the degassing line 7. The degassing 7 is made of metal, rubber or plastic and is preferably welded to the polar cap 9. The opening 8 and the degassing line 7 are formed symmetrically to an axis of symmetry 22 or a plane of symmetry 23 of the battery 1. The plane of symmetry 23 is shown in Fig. 1 and 2 due to the perspective only as a straight line. A diameter 12 of the gap 10 perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 11 of the battery 1 is smaller than a diameter 13 of the battery 1 perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 11 of the battery 1. The degassing 7 opens into a manifold 29, which further dissipates the gases and vapors. The electric current is at the pole cap 9 by means of an electrical conductor 6, preferably derived from copper. The electrical conductor 6 is connected to the pole cap 9 for this purpose. At the bottom of the battery 1, a negatively chargeable pole 4 is formed, which is also part of the housing 3. In the area of the pole cap 9 located on the upper side of the battery 1, relatively large amounts of heat are to be dissipated to the environment. A cooling fluid 30, z. As air, for example, in the axial direction (Fig. 1) or in the radial direction (Fig. 2) are passed directly to the polar cap 9 in order to derive the heat to be released optimally. The electrical conductor 6 is not only electrically conductive, but also thermally connected to the pole cap 9, that is, the electrical conductor 6 is heated by the polar cap 9. In a particularly advantageous manner, the electrical conductor 6 is also flowed around by the cooling fluid 30, so that the electrical conductor 6 can also contribute to the cooling of the battery 1. 2, a second embodiment of the battery 1 according to the invention is shown. The degassing line 7 is provided at one end 14 with a threaded thread 15 designed as an external thread 16. At the pole cap 9 is formed as a nut 18 threaded portion 17 is present. The degassing line 7 and / or the electrical conductor 6 can thus be screwed by means of the nut 18 to the pole cap 9. Otherwise, the second embodiment according to FIG. 2 corresponds to the first embodiment according to FIG. 1.
In einer weiteren, nicht dargestellten Ausführungsform ist an der Polkappe 9 ein Rohrstutzen vorhanden, auf den eine als Schlauch ausgebildete Entgasungsleitung 7 aufgesteckt werden kann.In a further, not shown embodiment, a pipe socket is provided on the pole cap 9, on which a degassing line 7 designed as a hose can be plugged.
In Fig. 3 ist ein Längsschnitt eines erfindungsgemäßen Batteriemodulsystems 20 mit mehreren Batterien 1 dargestellt. In dem Batteriemodulsystem 20 sind mehrere Batterien 1 zusammengefasst, um eine bestimmte elektrische Leistung zu realisieren. Zum Ableiten der gegebenenfalls in den Batterien 1 entstehenden Gase oder Dämpfe sind die Entgasungsleitungen 7 der Batterien 1 mittels der Sammelleitung 29 miteinander verbunden, um die Gase und Dämpfe der Batterien 1 in dem Batteriemodulsystem 20 zu sammeln und zentral ableiten zu können. Außerdem wird der elektrische Strom an der Batterie 1 mittels des elektrischen Leiters 6 abgeleitet. In das Batteriemodulsystem 20 kann ein Kühlfluid zum Kühlen der Batterien 1 eingeleitet werden (nicht dargestellt).FIG. 3 shows a longitudinal section of a battery module system 20 according to the invention with a plurality of batteries 1. In the battery module system 20, a plurality of batteries 1 are combined to realize a certain electric power. To derive the gases or vapors possibly formed in the batteries 1, the degassing lines 7 of the batteries 1 are connected to one another by means of the collecting line 29, in order to be able to collect and discharge the gases and vapors of the batteries 1 in the battery module system 20. In addition, the electric current is discharged to the battery 1 by means of the electrical conductor 6. A cooling fluid for cooling the batteries 1 may be introduced into the battery module system 20 (not shown).
