APPARATUS FOR DIAGNOSING BATTERY AND METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17939682 titled 'APPARATUS FOR DIAGNOSING BATTERY AND METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

Abstract Explanation

The patent application describes a battery diagnostic apparatus that can determine the remaining life of a battery based on its usage pattern and charge state history. The apparatus includes a storage for storing battery state history data, a battery state manager for managing the data, and a battery diagnostic device for analyzing the data and predicting the battery's remaining life.

  • The apparatus includes a storage, a battery state manager, and a battery diagnostic device.
  • The storage stores battery state history data, including information about the battery's charge state over time.
  • The battery state manager stores and retrieves the battery state history data.
  • The battery diagnostic device uses the battery state history data to determine the depth of discharge in a state of charge based on the battery's usage pattern.
  • The battery diagnostic device also predicts the remaining life of the battery based on the battery state history data and the depth of discharge.

Potential Applications

  • Battery diagnostics and prognostics for various applications such as electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, and portable electronics.
  • Battery management systems in industries where batteries are critical, such as aerospace and defense.
  • Improving battery performance and extending battery life in consumer electronics and electric vehicles.

Problems Solved

  • Lack of accurate methods to determine the remaining life of a battery.
  • Inefficient battery management leading to premature battery failure.
  • Limited understanding of battery usage patterns and their impact on battery life.

Benefits

  • Accurate prediction of a battery's remaining life, allowing for proactive maintenance and replacement.
  • Improved battery management, leading to optimized performance and extended battery life.
  • Better understanding of battery usage patterns, enabling more efficient battery design and usage.


Original Abstract Submitted

A battery diagnostic apparatus includes a storage, a battery state manager, and a battery diagnostic device. The storage includes battery state history data including periodic battery charge state information. The battery state manager stores the battery state history data in the storage and retrieves the stored battery state history data. The battery diagnostic device is configured to determine a usage pattern depth of discharge in a state of charge based on the battery state history data, and predicts a remaining life of a battery based on the battery state history data and the usage pattern depth of discharge.
