DEVICE AND METHOD FOR GENERATING AN ELECTRODE STACK WITH FLAT ELECTRODE ELEMENTS

A device for producing an electrode stack containing flat electrode elements includes a stacking wheel, which is mounted to rotate about a stacking wheel axis and has a plurality of stacking wheel fingers, which define respective intermediate spaces for receiving the electrode elements, and a wiper unit, which is designed to remove the electrode elements one after the other from the respective intermediate spaces through interaction with a rotational movement of the stacking wheel about the stacking wheel axis. The device furthermore includes a receiving unit for successively receiving the electrode elements removed from the intermediate spaces. The receiving unit has a base structure, on which the electrode elements received in the receiving unit can be stacked, and a delimiting element, which forms an end stop for the electrode elements received in the receiving unit and which is arranged statically in relation to the stacking wheel axis.
