Abstract

An installation for accommodating a storage battery in a closed-off space, such as a passenger or luggage space of a motor vehicle, which includes a covering hood that holds back gases and acids escaping from the battery cells; the covering hood thereby forms the cover of a trough surrounding the storage battery and abuts sealingly at the top side of the trough so that a container is created which is gas-tight with respect to the interior of the vehicle; the connecting cables for the battery are led out of the container in a sealed manner while a recess with a discharge opening is provided in the bottom of the container which is in communication with the free atmosphere.
