Battery housing for battery module of a traction battery of a motor vehicle

Abstract

A battery housing for a battery module of a traction battery of a motor vehicle has (i) a housing for enclosing at least one battery cell of the battery module, (ii) at least one cooling groove which is formed in at least one housing wall of the housing after which is open away from the battery cell and which serves for conducting a cooling fluid, and (iii) a cover which is configured as a planar plate and which is connected to the housing wall and which serves for closing the at least one cooling groove. Owing to the cooling groove formed in the housing wall, the cover can be configured as an inexpensive planar plate, such that cooling of a battery module is made possible with little outlay in terms of production.
