Abstract:
1. Pyromechanical battery pole disconnect element, comprising a housing in which an electrical conductor is located, a pyrotechnic active element including a breaking piston with a disconnect element to sever the electrical conductor at an isolating point, and a pyrotechnic charge to drive the disconnect element, characterized in that all the current-conducting components except the active element are combined to form a one-piece battery terminal element. that the battery terminal element has a clamping device for connection to a battery terminal; that two arms oriented at essentially right angles relative to each other extend from the clamping device; that the isolating point is located on the first arm, and beyond the isolating point and opposite the clamping device an attachment element is located on this arm for connection to a system to be disconnected in an emergency, and; that a second attachment element is located on the second arm for connection to the systems to be disconnected in an emergency.
