Abstract:
An apparatus for controlling supply of power of a battery is provided. In particular the apparatus supplies battery power to various loads within a vehicle by a release of a door-lock using a key. The battery power is supplied to the loads by rotation of the key for releasing the door-lock when the power of the battery supplied to the various loads is blocked to prevent over-discharge.
Abstract:
A method and system for controlling charge and discharge of a battery are provided. The method includes detecting a battery temperature using a temperature sensor and determining, by a controller, a state of charge (SOC) of the battery, a first maximum discharging power value, and a first maximum charging power value that correspond to the battery temperature. The controller selects a lowest SOC from among at least one SOC to use a maximum discharging power equal to the determined first maximum discharging power value and resets the first maximum charging power value to a second maximum charging power value that corresponds to the selected lowest SOC. Further, the controller is configured to perform a charge and a discharge of the battery with the reset second maximum charging power value at the detected battery temperature.
Abstract:
An overcharge prevention device of a battery is provided and includes a safety fuse which is connected to a battery and a safety circuit which is connected in parallel to the battery and the safety fuse and includes a short-circuit switch which is disposed adjacent to a side in which the battery is swelled. The short-circuit switch is opened in a normal state, and short-circuits when the switch is pressurized due to the swelling of the battery to form a closed circuit with the battery and the safety fuse.
Abstract:
A method and system for detecting fusion of a relay are provided to more accurately diagnose fusion of a relay by adjusting relay OFF order when a vehicle engine is turned off using data regarding whether fusion of a relay was detected when the vehicle engine was turned on. The method includes detecting whether first and second relays have been fused when a vehicle engine was turned on and adjusting OFF order of the first and second relays when the vehicle engine is turned off based on whether the first and second relays have been fused.
Abstract:
A battery system for a vehicle includes: a battery assembly including at least one first battery module and at least one second battery module; a first relay being closed/opened between a first node and one of a first end of the first battery module and a first end of the second battery module being connected to a second end of the first battery module; a second relay being closed/opened between a second node and a second end of the second battery module; a converter converting a voltage between the nodes; a third relay being closed/opened between the converter and the first end of the first battery module; a fourth relay being closed/opened between the first end of the first battery module and a ground; and a battery manager controlling the relays based on a driving condition of the vehicle and energy storage amounts of the modules.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a cooling control method for a battery management system in a vehicle in which battery cooling is controlled by according to the degree of battery durability deterioration.Specifically, the method of controlling battery cooling using a battery management system (BMS) configured to control a degree of cooling fan operation based on a battery temperature in the vehicle equipped with the battery and the cooling fan, includes the steps of increasing the degree of cooling fan operation compared normal conditions when an actual battery durability deterioration rate (Vt) measured using battery durability deterioration degree information during vehicle operation is higher than a predicted battery durability deterioration rate.
Abstract:
A battery management system for a vehicle is provided to prevent current consumption of a battery by operating a relay connected between the battery and electronic loads to prevent an over-discharge of the battery. The battery management system includes a sensing unit that is configured to measure a current and a voltage of a battery for a vehicle and a relay that is connected between the battery for the vehicle and electronic units of the vehicle. Additionally, a controller is configured to receive data from the sensing unit to turn off the relay.
Abstract:
A power supply system of a vehicle is provided. The system includes a high-voltage battery for storing power and a power relay that is disposed between the high-voltage battery and an electric load. A first converter receives the power from the high-voltage battery through the power relay and a second converter bypasses the power relay to directly receive the power from the high-voltage battery. The electric load receives the power from at least any one of the first converter and the second converter.

Abstract:
A system for charging a vehicle battery includes a relay configured to establish/interrupt electrical connection between the vehicle battery and a vehicle system supplied with power from the vehicle battery, and a controller. The controller is configured to monitor a voltage of the battery, control the relay to interrupt the electrical connection when a voltage of the battery is less than or equal to a first predetermined reference value, and control the relay to establish the electrical connection when a predetermined condition is satisfied while the relay is electrically disconnected. The controller controls the relay to be electrically connected to charge the battery through an external power source while the electrical connection is interrupted, and then control a connection state of the relay based on the voltage of the battery, a voltage and current of the relay at a side of the vehicle system, and whether a vehicle is started.
