Abstract

A method and production equipment for producing a battery and a motor vehicle with such a battery. In the method, at least one battery module is positioned and attached in a provided battery housing such that it covers at least one gap provided in a housing base of the battery housing. The housing base is then bent, outward along the gap, whereby a cavity is enlarged between the battery module and the housing base. A viscous heat-conductive filler is then supplied into the cavity through the gap. Subsequently, the bending of the housing base is reversed by pushing the housing base back in the direction of the battery module.
