Wherein, 1ZZhong, downstream, the end cell unit connector 42 that only is connected in the final level of multiple spot connection or not battery unit, but connects terminal resistance 3.And the identifying information input line 52 of downstream connector 42 is connected with terminating resistor 32, so the 1D input terminal ID_IN of unit controls section 13 becomes LOW.Its result, ID_IN is effective for the ID input terminal, is transfused to end cell unit 1Z and changes the triggering that identifying information is obtained pattern into, carries out ID and automatically obtains function (step S3).Like this, by the terminator terminating junctor 43 at terminal resistance 3, increase changing the parts of signal condition, what the connection of terminal resistance 3 can be also used as thus to identifying information obtains the beginning switch.
The unit controls section 13 of end cell unit 1Z is to the battery unit request communication of the minimum value with id information (ID=1).If response is arranged, (ID ← ID+1), further request is communicated by letter to increase No. ID.At this, the id information of other battery units is initial condition (ID=255), does not therefore have the battery unit responded.Therefore, through after certain hour, can be overtime.If overtime, unit controls section 13 will be set as less than the id information of response the id information of self.At this, the unit controls section 13 of end cell unit 1Z sets ID=1.In addition, set the signal output of the end cell unit 1Z of id information to ID lead-out terminal ID_OUT, output HIGH signal, finish identifying information and obtain pattern.Afterwards, become the communication wait state (step 54) of carrying out independent unit 2.
Then, in step S5, in the situation that the upstream side of end cell unit 1Z is connected with other battery units, changes this upstream side battery unit into identifying information and obtain pattern, similarly set id information.In the example of Fig. 1, owing to being connected with the second end cell unit 1Y, therefore enter step S6.At this, HIGH signal from the ID lead-out terminal ID_OUT of end cell unit 1Z is imported into the identifying information input line 52 of the second end cell unit 1Y of the upstream side that is connected to end cell unit 1Z via identifying information output line 51, be inverted as the LOW signal, to be imported in the ID input terminal ID_IN of the second end cell unit 1Y afterwards.Its result, the second end cell unit 1Y becomes identifying information and obtains pattern.And same, in step S7, the battery unit request communication to the minimum value with id information (ID=1), if response is arranged, increase No. ID, further request communication.At this, the end cell unit 1Z of ID=1 makes response.Therefore, make id information rise 1, to the battery unit request communication of ID=2.At this, owing to there not being such battery unit, therefore through after certain hour, can be overtime.Therefore, if overtime, the unit controls section 13 of the second end cell unit 1Y will be set as less than the ID=2 of response the id information of self.
In addition, return to step S5, repeatedly carry out same step, set successively id information from the battery unit 1 in downstream.In the example of Fig. 1, in the third terminal battery unit 1X that the upstream side with the second end cell unit 1Y is connected, after the execution identifying information is obtained pattern, as identifying information, set ID=3 equally.
Finally, if the id information of the first battery unit 1A be connected with master unit 2 is set, 2 output HIGH signals from identifying information output line 51 to master unit.If as the LOW signal, input to ID input terminal ID_IN after similarly reversing from the HIGH signal of identifying information input line 52 inputs, master unit 2 is identified as the ID setting end of all battery units 1.Thus, master unit 2 starts each battery unit 1 is carried out to MS master-slave communication.Can identify each battery unit 1 by id information.Communication mode can utilize the known communication modes such as RS-485.Master unit 2 can obtain the battery information (cell voltage, temperature, abnormal information etc.) of each battery unit 1.
Like this, under the state that is connected with many battery units 1, can be automatically each battery unit 1 be distributed to identification code, also can be cheap and carry out simply address setting by known method.In addition, can connect many battery units 1 and construct jumbo power-supply system.By adjusting number of connection, can adjust capacity, can construct neatly and the corresponding power-supply system of desired scale.In addition, whichever battery cell 11 abnormals, section can only change the battery unit that comprises abnormal battery cell 11, therefore also has advantages of and can cut down the required expense of battery of changing.
Each battery unit 1 is identical hardware configuration.Fig. 3 means the block diagram of each battery unit 1.Battery unit 1 shown in this figure 3 battery blocks 12 that have been connected in parallel, each battery block 12 is connected in series 13 battery cells 11 and forms.In addition, each battery block 12 can connect the temperature that detects battery cell 11 temperature sensor, detect the voltage sensor of the piece voltage of battery block 12.Temperature sensor can utilize thermistor etc.In addition, the current detecting part of the charging and discharging currents that detects battery unit 1 is set on the output line PL of the battery unit 1 be connected with a plurality of battery blocks 12, inputs to unit controls section 13.Unit controls section 13 is based on the temperature of battery cell 11, the piece voltage of battery block 12, detects the overcharging of battery block 12, overdischarge, if detect abnormal, to master unit 2 output abnormality signals.Master unit 2 is definite, and abnormal battery unit 1 has occurred, and to the abnormal generation of user report, and urges inspection and changes.
