Abstract:
A method for producing an electrochemical energy storage cell, which has a stack 1 of sheets 2, in particular electrode and/or separator sheets 2, and a liquid electrolyte 4, has the following steps: producing interspaces between a large number of adjacent sheets 2 in the stack 1 (step S1), bringing the stack 1 into contact with the electrolyte 4 (step S2), removing the interspaces produced in step S1 between the large number of adjacent sheets 2 in the stack 1 (step S3). As a result, the electrolyte 4 can be distributed quickly and uniformly over the surfaces of the large number of sheets 2. In a particularly preferred embodiment of the method, step S1 has the following substeps: fixing a large number of sheets 2 in the stack 1 relative to one another at at least one point (step S1.1, optional), bending the stack 1, wherein the sheets 2 in the stack 1 are at least partially movable with respect to one another (step S1.2), fixing a large number of sheets 2 in the bent stack 1 relative to one another, with the result that the large number of sheets 2 are fixed in each case relative to one another at at least two points (step S1.3), returning the bent stack 1 to a shape which approximately corresponds to the initial shape of the stack 1, whilst maintaining the fixings from step S1.1 and/or S1.3 (step S1.4).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for selecting electrochemical cells during the production of a battery that has a number of electrochemical cells, said method having the following steps: (S1) detecting the parameter data (DPar.) of an individual cell that is to be analysed; (S2) transmitting the detected parameter data (Dpar.) to a control unit; (S3) assigning the detected parameter data (DPar.) to the electrochemical cell; and (S4) determining for the electrochemical cell that has been allocated the parameter data if a predefined relationship exists between the parameter data (Dpar.) and predefined parameter values (WPar, Wpar.1, WPar.2, WPar.3. WPar 4, WPar.5) by means of the control unit. The method can further have the following steps: (S5a) feeding the electrochemical cell that has been assigned the parameter data (DPar.) to a first production line for producing a first type of battery, if in step (S4) the existence of a predefined relationship has been determined; or (S5b) feeding the electrochemical cell that has been assigned the parameter data (DPar.) to a second production line for producing a second type of battery, if in step (S4) the non-existence of a predefined relationship has been determined.

Abstract:
An exothermic component has a reactive multilayer arranged in grid-shape fashion on a carrier. The exothermic component can be incorporated in an electrode construction of a galvanic cell comprising electrode layers, a separator layer and current collecting layers. In addition, a matrix-like sensor arrangement can be provided in the electrode construction. Defect locations in the electrode construction can be identified on the basis of output signals of the sensor arrangement. By igniting selected regions of the reactive multilayer grid, which react exothermically, it is possible to destroy the defect locations in a targeted manner.

In an electrochemical energy store device, the electrochemically active components (11, 13, 21, 23, 31, 33), or additional components (12, 22, 32), are designed and/or arranged in a hermetically sealed container such that they inhibit the process of a chemical reaction of the electrochemically active components of the energy store device as soon as positive pressure builds, or could build, inside the container as a result of said chemical reaction. Preferably, the flow (14, 34, 35) of a movable component into the area of a chemical reaction, in which said movable component participates as a reactant, is inhibited or suppressed, at least locally, as soon as positive pressure build, or could build, inside the container as a result of said chemical reaction.
