DETECTOR AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM FOR DETECTING SIGN OF THERMAL RUNAWAY OF SECONDARY BATTERY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18464303 titled 'DETECTOR AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM FOR DETECTING SIGN OF THERMAL RUNAWAY OF SECONDARY BATTERY
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a detector system that includes a measurement unit and a battery control unit. The measurement unit measures the battery state of a secondary battery, while the battery control unit detects signs of thermal runaway in the battery. The system can determine whether to output a start-up signal based on the measurement value, and the battery control unit can start by receiving this signal, performing arithmetic processing on the measurement value, and detecting signs of thermal runaway.

Unanswered Questions
How does the system differentiate between normal battery behavior and signs of thermal runaway?
The system likely uses algorithms and thresholds to distinguish between normal battery behavior and signs of thermal runaway based on the measurement values.
What are the specific indicators of thermal runaway that the system detects?
The system may detect indicators such as rapid temperature increase, voltage spikes, or abnormal current flow in the secondary battery.
Original Abstract Submitted
A detector includes a measurement unit and a battery control unit. The measurement unit measures a measurement value indicating a battery state of a secondary battery. The battery control unit detects a sign of thermal runway in the secondary battery. The measurement unit determines whether a start-up signal is output based on the measurement value in a case where the battery control unit is in a sleep state, and outputs the start-up signal in a case where the start-up signal is output. The battery control unit starts by receiving the start-up signal from the measurement unit when the battery control unit is in the sleep state, executes arithmetic processing on the measurement value received from the measurement unit, and detects the sign of thermal runaway based on a calculated result of the arithmetic processing.
