The invention relates to an electrochemical cell unit for storing electrical energy, in which the electrochemical cell unit includes at least two lithium-ion pouch cells, a planar element for orienting the at least two lithium-ion pouch cells, and a cell carrier. The at least two lithium-ion pouch cells are provided in the cell carrier and are in electrical contact. The at least two lithium-ion pouch cells also have a first and a second terminal lug. The planar element is provided, preferably centrally, in the cell carrier and in addition, is sandwiched between the at least two lithium-ion pouch cells, at least some portions of the planar element being in contact with the pouch cells.

Cell unit, energy storage module and method for the assembly thereof

An energy storage module comprising a plurality of electrochemical cells for storing electric energy and comprising at least one contacting device for electrically contacting the plurality of electrochemical cells. Each of the electrochemical cells has a first flat connection lug for contacting a first electrode of the respective electrochemical cell and a second flat connection lug for contacting a second electrode of the respective electrochemical cell. The electrochemical cells are arranged in a stacked formation and form a cell pack such that the first and second flat connection lugs extend outwards from two opposing sides of the cell pack in an at least substantially perpendicular manner. According to the invention, the at least one contacting device is substantially comb-shaped in particular and has a plurality of teeth which are formed and arranged such that a first or second connection lug is or can be received between two adjacent teeth.

Energy storage module and assembly method

A cell assembly, having a cell frame, into which bus bars and a thermal plate are integrated, and a lithium-ion pouch cell having a first face and a second face opposite the first face are provided. The pouch cell further includes positive and negative cell terminals arranged at a top end of the pouch cell, and a compression element. The cell frame is configured to receive and house the pouch cell and the compression element in a space defined by the thermal plate and the cell frame.
