BATTERY PACK MANAGEMENT DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18734937 titled 'BATTERY PACK MANAGEMENT DEVICE

The abstract describes a slave battery management system (BMS) that communicates with a master BMS of a vehicle. The slave BMS includes a power supply, a state measurement sensor, a communicator, and a controller.

  • Power supply receives power from a battery module and transmits it.
  • State measurement sensor measures voltage and temperature of the battery module.
  • Communicator sends and receives communication signals to and from the master BMS.
  • Controller controls the on/off time of the communicator.
  • Power supply includes a power supply unit and a switching unit connected to the controller.

Potential Applications: - Electric vehicles - Hybrid vehicles - Energy storage systems

Problems Solved: - Efficient communication between slave and master BMS - Accurate measurement of battery state information

Benefits: - Improved battery management - Enhanced vehicle performance - Increased safety and reliability

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Battery Management System for Electric Vehicles This technology can be used in electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, and energy storage systems, leading to more efficient battery management and improved overall performance. The market implications include increased demand for electric vehicles and energy storage solutions.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the slave BMS communicate with the master BMS? The slave BMS communicates with the master BMS through a communicator that sends and receives signals. 2. What are the key components of the power supply in the slave BMS? The power supply in the slave BMS consists of a power supply unit and a switching unit connected to the controller.


Original Abstract Submitted

A slave battery management system (BMS) for communicating with a master battery management system (BMS) of a vehicle, in one example includes a power supply configured to receive power from a battery module and transmit the received power, a state measurement sensor configured to measure state information of at least one of a voltage and a temperature of the battery module, a communicator configured to transmit and receive communication signal to and from the master BMS, and a controller programmed to control an on/off time of the communicator. Further, the power supply of the slave BMS includes a power supply unit and a switching unit disposed between the power supply unit and the controller.
