Abstract
The present invention relates to a temperature control system for effective cooling and heating of rechargeable battery cells, in particular lithium (Li) ion batteries, wherein the temperature control module comprises an outer shell (1) made of a polymer material, which surrounds at least one heat-conducting layer made of unidirectional carbon fibre composite (2) and has, on each of two opposing edge regions of the main surfaces thereof, a conduit (3) for conveying a heat transfer medium, the conduits (3) extending along the edge regions from one end to the other; at least two layers of unidirectional carbon fibre composite (2) arranged one above the other are preferably provided, and an intermediate layer (7) having throughflow channels (8) which connect the conduits (3) to one another is located between the layers.
