Electrochemical device for storing electrical energy in rectangular geometric cells, narrow stack geometry, according to the above claims wherein for being built from a sturdy housing (4) in the form of a straight rectangular parallelepiped and where hollow metal rods (5) run on the metal substrate (14) of the base (1) and through the through holes (16) of the base (16) and through the through holes (16) of it run hollow metal rods (5) and on each one of them, the positive electrode is inserted followed by a separating element and so on, while the other hollow metal bar (5) is inserted the negative electrode, followed by a separating element and so on forming a “stack” of electrodes (6) which would fit into the base (1) forming the central structure of the device, with the hollow metal rods (5) serving as current collectors. The rectangular narrow stack geometry electrode (6) allows to carry out the pre-metallisation stage necessary to create the SEI, and the subsequent cycle stage in the same device, without reopening it.

A battery module and a method of assembling the battery module are provided. The battery module includes a cooling surface having a first area and a second area with different cooling capacities, an adhesive including a first component having a first thermal conductivity and a second component having a second thermal conductivity, and a first battery and a second battery. The first battery is secured to the first area by a first portion of the adhesive and the second battery is secured to the second area by a second portion the adhesive. The first portion of the adhesive has a first ratio of the first component to the second component and the second portion of the adhesive has a second ratio of the first component to the second component. The first and second ratios are different and compensate for the different cooling capacities of the first and second areas.

A fluid drainage arrangement for a battery arrangement, the fluid drainage arrangement having a fluid inlet, a collecting chamber, a membrane, a labyrinth chamber and a fluid outlet. The membrane is provided between the collecting chamber and the labyrinth chamber and has a closed state (Z1) and an open state (Z2). The membrane is designed, in the closed state (Z1), to collect a coolant, which passes into the collecting chamber via the fluid inlet, in the collecting chamber until the membrane, at a predetermined first differential pressure between a side of the membrane that is assigned to the collecting chamber and a side of the membrane that is assigned to the labyrinth chamber, transitions from the closed state (Z1) into the open state (Z2) and allows drainage of the coolant via the labyrinth chamber to the fluid outlet.
