  • the batteries can replace traditional energy sources such as lead-acid batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries or nickel-metal hydride batteries.
  • the battery can also be used in sensors or in the Internet of Things.
  • Supercapacitors also called supercaps, are, as is well known, electrochemical energy storage devices with a particularly high power density. Unlike ceramic, film and electrolytic capacitors, supercapacitors do not have a dielectric in the traditional sense. In particular, they implement the storage principles of static storage of electrical energy through charge separation in a double-layer capacitance and the electrochemical storage of electrical energy through charge exchange with the help of redox reactions in a pseudocapacitance.
  • Supercapacitors include in particular hybrid capacitors, in particular lithium-ion capacitors. Their electrolyte usually comprises a solvent in which conductive salts are dissolved, usually lithium salts.
  • Supercapacitors are preferably used in applications in which a high number of charge/discharge cycles are required. Supercapacitors are particularly advantageous in the automotive sector, in particular in the field of recuperation of braking energy. Other applications are of course also possible and covered by the invention.

  • the thickness d2 within the glazing section can be freely selected within a wide range, so that a glazing length can be set independently of other dimensions of the base body 12 or of a housing with the base body.
  • a base body 12 with a flexible flange 30 could also be combined with a connection pin 20 in which only one end face has a covering material.
  • Figure 5 shows a fifth embodiment of an electrical feedthrough 10, which is designed similarly to the first embodiment of Figure 1, but with both end faces of the connection pin 20 protruding beyond the corresponding surfaces of the base body 12.
  • the core 22 of the connection pin 20 made of copper, copper alloy or CuSiC is completely surrounded by aluminum, an aluminum alloy or AlSiC, so that all surfaces of the core 22 are covered by the covering material 24. Accordingly, in particular both end faces and a lateral surface of the core 22 are covered by the covering material 24.
  • the fixing material 16 adjoins the core 22, i.e.
  • Figure 6 shows a sixth embodiment of an electrical feedthrough 10, which is designed similarly to the fourth embodiment of Figure 4 and comprises a flexible flange 30, the design and function of which have already been described above.
  • the core 22 of the connection pin 20 with the first electrically conductive material is, as shown in the fourth embodiment of Figure 4, provided on its two end faces with covering material 24, 25, whereby here, for example, the covering materials 24, 25 are identical, but their thicknesses are selected to be different. Since the further transition 26b between the core 22 and further covering material 25 is in contact with the fixing material here, the thickness of the covering material 25 is selected to be smaller.
  • the connection pin 20 is designed and arranged such that its two end faces are not arranged flush with the corresponding surfaces of the base body 12, but protrude beyond them.
  • the total thickness of the connection pin 20 is thus greater than the thickness of the base body 12 in the area of the feedthrough.
  • the arrangement of the core 22 and the thickness of the covering material 25 are chosen to be so large that, in conjunction with the fixing material 16, the first electrically conductive material of the core 22 is not accessible from one side of the electrical feedthrough 10. Accordingly, the fixing material 16 also directly borders on the covering material 25.
  • the covering material 25 is located on the second side of the electrical feedthrough 10, which faces inwards when a housing is formed. On the opposite first side of the feedthrough 10, which faces outwards when a housing is formed, the first electrically conductive material of the core 22 is accessible in the embodiment shown, since the transition 26a from the core 22 to the covering material 24 lies outside the fixing material 16.
  • Figure 7 shows a seventh embodiment of an electrical feedthrough 10, which is designed similarly to the second embodiment of Figure 2.
  • the base body 12 of the seventh embodiment has a circumferential connecting flange 32 on its outer edge, which is designed here in the form of a one-sided step.
  • the connecting flange 32 can be used to align and center the base body 12 in relation to another housing component - for example a cup-shaped housing element or a cover element - during the assembly of a housing or cover.
  • the connection to the other housing component can be made at the connecting flange 32, for example with the aid of a welded connection or soldered connection.
  • a connecting flange can also be combined with other base body designs, for example with reinforcements or a flexible flange.
  • a relief device 31 is provided in the base body 12, which is designed here as a groove or depression, preferably as a circumferential groove or circumferential depression.
  • the groove of the relief device 31 is arranged as an example on the first side of the electrical feedthrough 10, which faces outwards when a housing is formed. Of course, it could also be arranged on the other side of the housing.
  • Two grooves or depressions arranged on opposite sides of the base body can also serve as a relief device 31. Instead of a groove, a series of recesses lying next to one another can also be provided.
  • the relief device 31 reduces thermal flow through the base body 12, i.e. creates a thermal barrier, and/or reduces mechanical stress on the base body 12 perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the connection pin 20, since the base body 12 is deformable, preferably reversibly deformable, in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the connection pin 20.
  • the fixing material here is a recessed fixing material 16a, which is designed and arranged as described in connection with the second exemplary embodiment (see Figure 2).
  • a relief device 31 can also be realized in other embodiments of the invention, for example an embodiment according to Figure 1, in which the height H of the fixing material is substantially equal to the thickness D of the base body 12 in an area adjacent to the through opening 14.
  • connection pin 20 has a core 22 made of copper as the first electrically conductive material and a covering material 24 made of aluminum as the second electrically conductive material on an end face of the core 22.
  • a core 22 made of copper as the first electrically conductive material and a covering material 24 made of aluminum as the second electrically conductive material on an end face of the core 22 could also be a core made of a copper alloy and/or a covering material made of an aluminum alloy.
  • the connection pin 20 shown is advantageously a stamped, roll-plated connection pin.
  • the base body 12 consists of a material with a thermal expansion coefficient that is higher than that of the material of the core 22.
  • the base body 12 is made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy. If a low-melting fixing material 16 with a thermal expansion coefficient that is lower than the thermal expansion coefficient of the base body 12 is selected, a hermetically sealed pressure glazing can be provided in combination with a base body 12 made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy.
  • the fixing material 16 can be, for example, a bismuth-based glass. It is advantageously an aluminum phosphate glass.
  • Pressure glazing can also be provided with a base body made of steel if the fixing material is chosen accordingly, since the prestress for pressure glazing is essentially determined by the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients between the material of the base body and the material of the fixing material.
  • the materials of the base body 12 and fixing material 16, 16a and optionally core 22 can be adapted to each other with regard to their thermal expansion coefficients, so that an adapted implementation is present.
  • connection pin 20 is adapted to the requirements of the metal-fixing material feedthrough formed in terms of its material properties, in particular in terms of its thermal expansion coefficient.
  • a core 22 is also chemically resistant and thus adapted to the requirements of the materials of a storage cell, e.g. chemical resistance, electrochemical potentials, so that corrosion of the connection pin 20 is prevented or at least reduced. Consequently, it is not absolutely necessary to provide an additional covering material on the second end face of the core 22, which faces inwards when a housing is formed.
  • connection pin 20 can be optimized for example for simple and secure connection, e.g. soldering or welding, to electrical connections. Even if the covering material 24 made of aluminum or aluminum alloy is on the side facing inwards when a housing is formed, the ability to make contact with electrical connections can be improved as a result.
  • the advantageous material combinations mentioned in connection with the seventh embodiment can also be advantageous for other embodiments, for example designs with and without relief device 31, with and without reinforcement measures, with flush arrangement of the fixing material, etc.
  • connection pin 20 is here, for example, in the form of a cylindrical body and has a lateral surface 21c and two end faces 21a, 21b.
  • the core 22 of the cylindrical body which is also cylindrical here, has two end faces 23a, 23b that are opposite one another and a lateral surface 23c that forms a section of the lateral surface 21c of the connection pin.
  • a first end face 23a of the core 22 is covered with the covering material 24.
  • the covering material 24 covering the first end face 23a does not protrude laterally beyond the core 22.
  • the end face of the covering material, which forms the end face 21a of the connection pin 20, and the first end face 23a of the core 22 are essentially the same size and the same shape.
  • the front surface of the covering material could be somewhat smaller if the peripheral edge on the front side 21a of the connecting pin 20 were rounded.
  • connection pin 20 is designed such that there is no further layer on the second end face 23b of the core 22.
  • the second end face 23b of the core 22 thus simultaneously forms the end face 21b of the connection pin.
