Abstract

A method for manufacturing a battery module includes: providing a pre-module including a plurality of aligned battery cells having differently-oriented surfaces; attaching a terminal end of a flexible interconnector to the pre-module, the flexible interconnector including a strip-shaped flexible printed circuit (FPC), the FPC including a first insulating main surface, a second insulating main surface opposite the first insulating main surface, and a plurality of thermally and/or electrically conducting lines between the first insulating main surface and the second insulating main surface, each of the conducting lines having a contact portion exposed by a contact aperture in the first insulating main surface and/or the second insulating main surface; and wrapping the flexible interconnector around the pre-module such that the contact portions contact the differently-oriented surfaces of the battery cells.
