Battery Apparatus, Battery Management System and Diagnosis Method - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18031946 titled 'Battery Apparatus, Battery Management System and Diagnosis Method
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a battery apparatus with multiple battery packs and switches.
- The apparatus has a first switch connected to the first battery pack and a first link terminal.
- A second switch is connected to the second terminal of the first battery pack and a second link terminal.
- A third switch is connected to the first terminal of a second battery pack and the first link terminal.
- A fourth switch is connected to the second terminal of the second battery pack and the second link terminal.
- A first diagnosis circuit includes a first capacitor that charges the voltage of the first battery pack when the first and second switches are closed.
- A second diagnosis circuit includes a second capacitor that charges the voltage of the second battery pack when the third and fourth switches are closed.
Original Abstract Submitted
In a battery apparatus, a first switch is connected between a first terminal of a first battery pack and a first link terminal, a second switch is connected between a second terminal of the first battery pack and a second link terminal, a third switch is connected between a first terminal of a second battery pack and the first link terminal, and a fourth switch connected between a second terminal of the second battery pack and the second link terminal. A first diagnosis circuit includes a first capacitor for charging a voltage of the first battery pack when the first switch and the second switch are closed, and a second diagnosis circuit includes a second capacitor for charging a voltage of the second battery pack when the third switch and the fourth switch are closed.
