Abstract
A battery arrangement for a motor vehicle includes a battery housing and battery cells. The battery housing has a wall which runs around at least on four sides and encloses an interior of the battery housing. The battery housing has a separating web which divides the interior into two chambers. The battery housing has a preferred direction in which the encircling wall and the separating web extend. Battery cells are arranged in the two chambers. The battery housing is composed of one profile element that is T-shaped in section and two profile elements that are L-shaped in section, so that the profile elements form the encircling wall and the separating web.

A battery arrangement for a motor vehicle, the battery arrangement comprising:
- a battery housing that includes (i) encircling walls which run around at least on four sides and enclose an interior of the battery housing, and (ii) a separating web which divides the interior into two chambers;
- and
- battery cells arranged in the two chambers,
- wherein the encircling walls and the separating web extend in a direction,
- wherein the battery housing is composed of one profile element that is T-shaped in section and two profile elements that are L-shaped in section, wherein the three profile elements are cohesively bonded together such that the three profile elements form the encircling walls and the separating web,
- wherein the profile element that is T-shaped in section has a first limb forming a top wall of the battery housing, a second limb protruding from a center of said first limb to form the separating web, and a third limb arranged on an end side of the second limb, the second limb standing centrally on said third limb,
- wherein the profile elements that are L-shaped in section are arranged with mirror-image symmetry with respect to one another, wherein each profile element that is L-shaped has a fourth limb forming a portion of a lower wall of the battery housing, and a fifth limb protruding perpendicularly from said fourth limb to form a side wall of the battery housing,
- wherein the third limb is connected to and positioned between the fourth limbs of the profile elements that are L-shaped,
- wherein each end of the third limb is positioned within a chamfer that is formed at a free end of one of the fourth limbs.
