A method for producing a mechanical and thermal system for a modular battery. The system has a module, which involves a module housing of the module being connected, on a thermally conductive module side, to a cooling apparatus. The module includes an energy storage unit and a power electronics unit, arranged on a circuit board, which are thermally isolated from each other by a first and a second thermally conductive element, which dissipates heat to the module side thermally connected to the cooling apparatus, and are integrated in the module housing, by virtue of the energy storage unit being connected to the first thermally conductive element, which contacts the module side connected to the cooling apparatus, and by virtue of the circuit board and the energy storage unit having the second thermally conductive element arranged between them, which second thermally conductive element contacts the module side connected to the cooling apparatus.

Mechanical and thermal system for a modular battery with power electronics components

A battery module for a traction battery having a housing, battery cells arranged inside the housing, a power electronics circuit board which is adjacent to the battery cells, a support face, facing away from the power electronics circuit board, for a cooling plate of the traction battery, and a heat-conducting element which bears over a surface on the power electronics circuit board and runs between the battery cells in the direction of or along the support face. Also described is a corresponding method for manufacturing a battery module, a corresponding traction battery and a corresponding electric car.
