Abstract: An energy storage apparatus for engine start-up includes: an energy storage device, a first switch provided in a first energizing path to the energy storage device, a step-down circuit provided in a second energizing path to the energy storage device, and a controller. The controller turns the first switch on to discharge through the first energizing path at engine start-up, and turns the first switch off to select the second energizing path if an output voltage of a vehicle generator is higher than a predetermined voltage to cause the output voltage of the vehicle generator to be stepped down with the step-down circuit to charge the energy storage device.

Abstract: An energy storage apparatus includes: an energy storage device which is connected to a vehicle load and a vehicle power generator; a current interrupt device that causes the energy storage device and the vehicle load as well as the energy storage device and the vehicle power generator to be in a conduction state or in an interruption state; a voltage detection unit that detects voltage of the energy storage device; and a control unit. The control unit executes: a switching instruction process in which, when determining that the electric storage device will reach an overcharge state on the basis of the voltage, the control unit issues an interruption switching instruction to the current interrupt device; and an interruption maintaining process in which, when the number of times of the switching instruction process exceeds a predetermined value, the control unit issues an instruction to maintain the interruption state.

Abstract: An electric storage apparatus includes an output terminal configured to be electrically connected to a system including an engine, an electric storage device, a monitoring apparatus including a detector and a controller, and a relay disposed between the output terminal and the electric storage device. The detector is configured to detect a variation value corresponding to an amount of charge of the electric storage device. The controller is configured to determine whether the variation value is equal to or lower than an opening threshold, and execute an opening process to switch the relay from a closed state to an open state if the variation value is equal to or lower than the opening threshold. The opening threshold is larger than an engine activation low-threshold by a predetermined value. The engine activation low-threshold is a lowest level of the amount of charge at which the engine is able to be started.

Abstract: A power supply protective device, when obtaining an open voltage when a second switch is brought into a closed state and a first switch is brought into an open state during discharging of a power supply, and obtaining a close voltage when the second switch is brought into the closed state and the first switch is brought into the closed state during discharging of the power supply, diagnoses the first switch as having a failure or not on the basis of the open voltage and the close voltage. When executing first a close instruction to the first switch and the second switch, if a voltage difference is less than a first threshold voltage, the first switch is determined to have no open failure, and/or when not less than a second threshold voltage, the second switch is determined to have no open failure.
