Embodiment Construction

[0046] figure 1 is a top view of a connector 1 according to the invention for connecting a cellular electrical component (not shown) seen from the side mounted on a battery unit. The connector 1 comprises a cover-shaped carrier element 2 and a plurality of contact elements 4 arranged in two parallel rows.

[0047] The carrier element 2 is designed as an elongated base plate 21 with a peripheral edge 22 . The carrier element 2 is produced by injection moulding. In this case, for fixing the contact element 4 , a pin 5 is formed, in which the contact element 4 can be seated and then partly form a positive locking connection relative to the carrier element 2 . Instead of pins, contact members may also be provided to receive contacts. The pins 5 can be formed by heat riveting to fix the contact elements 4 .

[0048] figure 2 The exploded view in can also be understood as the pre-assembly position. During assembly, the strip-shaped retaining element 3 and the connector elemen...

Abstract

The invention relates to a connector for connecting cellular electrical elements of a battery unit. An object of the invention is to provide a solution which is less complex and therefore more cost-effective than commercially available systems. This object is achieved with a connector (1) for connecting cellular electrical elements (20), comprising a cover-like carrier element (2) and a covering element (3), at least one contact element (4) being arranged in the carrier element (2), a connector element (34) being provided in the edge region of the carrier element (2), a film conductor (3) for contacting the contact element (4) with the connector element (34) being arranged in the carrier element, the carrier element (2) having weld openings (7) and the covering element (40) being constructed in such a manner that the weld openings (7) of the carrier element (2) can be covered therewith.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to connectors for connecting cellular electrical components, and methods for mounting such connectors. Such cellular electrical elements may be connected to each other in series and / or in parallel. Background technique [0002] For example, voltage sources and / or voltage sinks (sinks) of galvanic cells, capacitors or supercapacitors (Supercap) in a traction battery configured as an electric vehicle can be connected to each other to achieve high voltage and / or high capacitance. In this case, the voltage source can act simultaneously with the voltage sink to repeatedly supply and remove power. In prior art solutions, differently constructed housings are produced for each application, into which electrically conductive connection parts are introduced, and after the cells have been connected a cover is used to close the housing. Since each housing has to be constructed individually and corresponding tool parts have to be pr...
