CELL INSULATION DEFECT DETECTION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17983043 titled 'CELL INSULATION DEFECT DETECTION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure is about a system for detecting insulation defects in battery cells. The system includes a contact unit with a conductive roller that makes contact with the battery cell to be inspected. The battery cell is housed in the contact unit and can rotate. There is also a measurement unit that measures the insulation resistance between the roller and the cell when they are in contact with each other.

  • The system includes a contact unit with a conductive roller that contacts the battery cell.
  • The battery cell is housed in the contact unit and can rotate.
  • A measurement unit measures the insulation resistance between the roller and the cell.
  • The system is designed to detect insulation defects in individual cells forming a battery.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Battery manufacturing industry
  • Electric vehicle industry
  • Renewable energy storage systems

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Insulation defects in battery cells can lead to safety hazards and reduced performance.
  • Detecting insulation defects manually can be time-consuming and inefficient.
  • This system provides a more automated and efficient way to detect insulation defects in battery cells.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved safety by detecting insulation defects in battery cells.
  • Increased performance and reliability of battery systems.
  • Time and cost savings in the inspection process.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a battery cell, and more particularly, to a cell insulation defect detection system configured to detect insulation defects of individual cells forming a battery. The cell insulation defect detection system of the present disclosure comprises a contact unit comprising a conductive roller configured to contact a battery cell to be inspected, the battery cell being rotatably housed therein, and a measurement unit configured to measure insulation resistance between the roller and the cell in contact with each other.
