Method for the temperature control of a traction battery arranged in a vehicle during a charging process at a charging station, and charging station for performing such a method
First Claim
1. A method for the temperature control of a traction battery arranged in a vehicle during a charging process at a charging station, wherein the traction battery has at least one contacting surface configured to thermally contact the traction battery, the method comprising:
- thermally contacting at least one cooling body provided by the charging station with the at least one contacting surface of the traction battery such that an exchange of thermal energy between the at least one cooling body and the traction battery via the least one contacting surface thermally contacted with the at least one cooling body is enabled without the traction battery having a cooling device or a cooling channel and the traction battery is temperature-controlled by the at least one cooling body, at least during the charging process.

Abstract
An electrical contact assembly includes a first electrical contact having a first mating element, and a second electrical contact having a second mating element. The first and second electrical contacts are configured to mate together at the first and second mating elements such that the first and second mating elements engage each other at a contact interface. A distribution of contact pressure across the contact interface at least partially coincides with a distribution of electrical current flow across the contact interface.
