A method for supporting a battery housing when a battery module is inserted. A support device includes a support for supporting the battery housing. Here, the support has several mutually movable pin elements for setting down the battery housing. A negative shape corresponding to a shape of a base bottom side of a housing base of the battery housing by the pin elements is set on the basis of a selective displacement of the support along a predetermined translational direction of movement in that each pin element is displaced from a respective starting position to a respective end position when it reaches the base bottom side and locked at the respective end position by a locking unit. After the negative shape has been set, the support is displaced by a defined offset distance opposite to the direction of movement.
