Abstract
A battery terminal for high temperature batteries is made in the form of a hollow conductor in the area in which it traverses the heat insulation of the housing wall. Its hollow interior is filled with a molten liquid metal only during periods of operation. During rest periods, the molten liquid metal is in a storage container and the resulting vacuum, or inert gas which remains in the hollow space, forms a barrier for heat conduction from the hot battery interior toward the outside, so that battery and load are decoupled not only electrically but also thermally.
