Accumulator arrangement

A motor vehicle, comprising a beam and an accumulator arrangement coupled beneath the motor vehicle on a body floor, the accumulator arrangement including:

• an accumulator housing defining a receiving space for receiving a plurality of battery modules, the accumulator housing including a base and a wall projecting perpendicularly from the base in a wall direction;
• at least one energy receiving arrangement configured to receive an impact energy in case of an impact, the at least one energy receiving arrangement including a wall part and a beam part, the wall part one of i) coupled on the wall of the accumulator housing and ii) defining the wall of the accumulator housing;
• the wall part including a plurality of first gripping elements aligned transversely to the wall direction, the beam part including a plurality of second gripping elements aligned transversely to the wall direction, the plurality of first gripping elements and the plurality of second gripping elements engaging in one another in an overlapping direction such that, in the case of an impact, the impact energy is received by the plurality of first gripping elements and the plurality of second gripping elements of the at least one energy receiving arrangement in the overlapping direction and the plurality of battery modules arranged in the accumulator housing are protected;
• and
• wherein the beam part of the at least one energy receiving arrangement is coupled on the beam, and wherein the wall direction of the accumulator arrangement corresponds to a vehicle Z-direction, and the overlapping direction of the accumulator arrangement corresponds to one of a vehicle X-direction and a vehicle Y-direction.

An accumulator arrangement for a motor vehicle, comprising:

• an accumulator housing defining a receiving space structured to receive a plurality of battery modules, the accumulator housing including a base and a wall, the wall protruding from the base in a wall direction;
• at least one energy receiving arrangement including a wall part and a beam part, the wall part one of i) coupled to the wall of the accumulator housing and ii) defining the wall of the accumulator housing, the beam part couplable on a beam of the motor vehicle;
• the wall part including a plurality of first gripping element extending along an overlapping direction and disposed above one another relative to the wall direction, the overlapping direction extending transversely to the wall direction;
• the beam part including a plurality of second gripping element extending along the overlapping direction and disposed above one another relative to the wall direction;
• the plurality of first gripping elements and the plurality of second gripping elements engaging one another such that the plurality of first gripping elements and the plurality of second gripping elements are alternatingly disposed relative to the wall direction;
• and
• wherein the plurality of first gripping elements and the plurality of second gripping elements are deformable via an impact energy.
