WIRELESS BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM SERVICING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240027528 titled 'WIRELESS BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM SERVICING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a battery module that includes multiple battery cells and a battery monitoring system. The monitoring system is designed to track various parameters of the battery cells. The module also includes a processor that executes a battery monitoring script to generate a battery information payload in a specific format. The module has a radio that receives a container file containing metadata defining the battery information payload format and the monitoring script. The radio then transmits the metadata to a service device and sends the battery information payload to the service device.
The patent also covers a battery pack that consists of multiple battery modules and a wireless battery management system controller. The controller receives the battery information payload from each of the battery modules and provides aggregated battery information to a battery management controller of a host.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Electric vehicles: The battery module and pack can be used in electric vehicles to monitor and manage the battery cells, ensuring optimal performance and safety.
- Renewable energy storage: The technology can be applied in energy storage systems that store electricity generated from renewable sources, such as solar or wind power.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Battery monitoring: The system solves the problem of monitoring multiple battery cells in a module or pack, providing real-time data on their performance and health.
- Battery management: The technology enables efficient management of battery packs by aggregating information from individual modules and providing it to a central controller.
Benefits of this technology:
- Enhanced safety: The monitoring system helps detect any abnormalities or malfunctions in the battery cells, reducing the risk of accidents or failures.
- Improved performance: By monitoring and managing the battery cells, the technology optimizes their performance, extending their lifespan and overall efficiency.
- Simplified maintenance: The aggregated battery information allows for easier maintenance and troubleshooting, ensuring timely actions to address any issues.
