A connector system for a battery module has a number of cell connectors of different successive cell connector types in order to form one or more electric contacts with one or more connections of one or more individual cells of the battery module, in particular for a power-transmitting tap in which each cell connector of a subsequent cell connector type is designed to electrically connect a larger number of connections of individual cells than the number of connections which can be connected by each cell connector of a preceding cell connector type. Each cell connector of a preceding cell connector type can be stacked and/or nested on a cell connector of a subsequent cell connector type in an assembly direction perpendicular to the main direction of extension.

Connector system, battery module, method for forming a tap, and operating device

A cell contact-making system for a cell module which has at least two electrochemical cells includes at least one support component, which can be fixed to the other cell module, for supporting at least one cell connector, which electrically connects the two electrochemical cells to one another. At least one covering component covers the cell connector on a side which is averted from the electrochemical cells. In order to provide an automated cell contact-making system which is producible in a more cost-effective manner and has integrated electric shock protection, the covering component is a flexible plastic film and, in a stretched state, is partially cohesively connected to the support component.

Cell contact-making system, cell module and method for producing a cell module

A cell contacting system for an electro-chemical device is provided, which has a reduced weight and yet a high security against damage. The electro-chemical device includes a plurality of electro-chemical cells, a cover which includes a carrier element, on which there is arranged at least one cell connector for the electrically conductive connection of a first cell terminal of a first electro-chemical cell and a second cell terminal of a second electro-chemical cell, and a cover element for covering the at least one cell connector, the cover element including a covering film.

Cover for an electro-chemical device

A cell connector for the electrically conductive connection of a first cell terminal of a first electrochemical cell and a second cell terminal of a second electrochemical cell of an electrochemical device is provided, the cell connector including a first contact region for connection to the first cell terminal and a second contact region for connection to the second cell terminal, where the cell connector allows a large relative displacement between the first contact region and the second contact region even under the influence of only small deformation forces. The cell connector can include a base body made of two or more material layers, at least two material layers being connected to one another in one piece along a fold line.
