ELECTRIC BATTERY AND MOTOR VEHICLE

An electric battery may include a battery housing, at least one battery cell module, a coolant supply and discharge, and a sealing mechanism. The battery housing may partially surround a housing interior and may include at least one housing opening that may be sealed via a cooling plate. The least one battery cell module may be arranged in the housing interior and on the cooling plate. The coolant supply and discharge may be disposed outside of the battery housing. The coolant supply and discharge may, fluidically separated from the housing interior, communicate with a coolant path of the cooling plate. The sealing mechanism may be arranged between the cooling plate and the battery housing such that the sealing mechanism seals both the housing interior as well as a transition from the coolant supply and discharge to the coolant path against external surroundings of the battery housing.
