Abstract
The invention concerns a sealing frame (10) for use in a battery, including a primary body (11), wherein the primary body (11) surrounds an opening (12), at least one circumferential compressible elastic seal (17), which surrounds the opening (12), wherein a trigger area (21) is provided on one edge of the opening (12), wherein a continuous deviation opening (20) is formed in the primary body (12) contiguous to the trigger area (21).
Claims13
A sealing frame (10) for use in a battery, comprising:
- a primary body (11), wherein the primary body (11) surrounds an opening (12),
- at least one circumferential compressible elastic seal (17), which surrounds the opening (12),
- wherein a trigger area (21) is foreseen on one edge of the opening (12),
- wherein a pass-through deviation opening (20) is provided in the primary body (12) adjacent to the trigger area (21).
1 more element
A battery, comprising at least two sealing frames (10) comprising:
- a primary body (11), wherein the primary body (11) surrounds an opening (12),
- at least one circumferential compressible elastic seal (17), which surrounds the opening (12),
- wherein a trigger area (21) is foreseen on one edge of the opening (12),
- wherein a pass-through deviation opening (20) is provided in the primary body (12) adjacent to the trigger area (21), and
- at least one cell (1) wherein the cell (1) is positioned between two sealing frames (10), wherein the cells (1) feature a cell housing (2) which is surrounded by a seam seal (3), wherein the cell housing (2) extends in the opening (12) of the primary body (11) of the sealing frame (10) and wherein the seam seal (3) is taken up with contact pressure between the seal (17) of one sealing frame (10) and the primary body (11) of a further sealing frame (10) or between the opposing seals (17) of two sealing frames (10), wherein the seam seal (3) is not contacted by the seal (17) in the trigger area.
