[protection component]
Fig. 2 illustrates a configuration example of protection component 5.As shown in (A) of Fig. 2, protection component 5 possesses: insulated substrate 10, the on the insulating substrate 10 stacked and heater 12 covered by the insulating elements such as glass 11, first electrode 13 at two ends being formed in insulated substrate 10 and the second electrode 14, to be layered in heater extraction electrode 15 on insulating element 11 and two ends to be connected to the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 and central portion is connected to the fusible conductor 16 of heater extraction electrode 15 in the mode overlapping with heater 12.
Insulated substrate 10 such as uses aluminium oxide, glass ceramics, mullite, zirconia etc. have the parts of insulating properties and are formed as general square shape.In addition, insulated substrate 10 can also use epoxy glass substrate, phenolic substrate etc. for the material of printed wiring substrate, but temperature when needing to pay attention to the fusing of fusible conductor 16.
Heater 12 be resistance value higher and be energized time heating the parts with conductivity, be such as made up of W, Mo, Ru etc.Heater 12 can by being mixed to get slurry by the coccoid of their alloy or constituent, compound and resin binder etc., and utilize screen printing technique to make this slurry form pattern on the insulating substrate 10 to carry out firing etc. and being formed.
With regard to heater 12, heater electrode 17 is at one end set and is connected with switch element 6 via this heater electrode 17.In addition, the other end of heater 12 is connected with heater extraction electrode 15, and heater 12 is connected with fusible conductor 16 via this heater extraction electrode 15.Heater 12 on the surface of insulated substrate 10 cover by insulating element 11.Insulating element 11 is in order to while the protection realizing heater 12 and insulation, the heat of heater 12 is effectively transmitted to fusible conductor 16 and heater extraction electrode 15 and is arranged, such as, is made up of glassy layer.
Should illustrate, in protection component 5, also insulating element 11 also can be formed between the surface of insulated substrate 10 and heater 12, thus make heater 12 be configured in the inside of insulating element 11.In addition, in protection component 5, also heater 12 can be formed in insulated substrate 10 with the back side of surperficial opposite side being formed with the first electrode 13, second electrode 14.Further, in protection component 5, also heater 12 can be formed in the inside of insulated substrate 11.In addition, in protection component 5, also heater 12 can be formed in the surface of insulated substrate 11, and adjoin with the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 and formed.
The heater extraction electrode 15 be connected with heater 12 is laminated with at the upper surface of insulating element 11.Heater extraction electrode 15 can, by being heated by heater 12, make the fused conductor of fusible conductor 16 be easy to cohesion.
The first electrode 13 and the second electrode 14 is formed at the pair of right and left side edge part of insulated substrate 10.First electrode 13 and the second electrode 14 are equipped with fusible conductor 16 via attachment solder.In addition, the first electrode 13, second electrode 14, facing to the side of insulated substrate 11, is connected via the external connecting electrode (not shown) of through hole (throughhole) with the back side being arranged on insulated substrate 11.Further, the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 is connected via the discharge and recharge path of external connecting electrode with the protective circuit 1 of installing protection component 5.
First electrode 13, second electrode 14 can use the common electrode materials such as Cu and/or Ag to be formed.In addition, preferably, on the surface of the first electrode 13, second electrode 14, the tunicles such as plating Ni/Au, plating Ni/Pd, plating Ni/Pd/Au are formed by known plating.Thereby, it is possible to prevent the oxidation of the first electrode 13, second electrode 14, thus reliably keep fused conductor.In addition; can prevent when carrying out Reflow Soldering attachment to protection component 5, due to connect fusible conductor 16 attachment solder or formed fusible conductor 16 outer field low-melting-point metal generation melting and by the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 corrode (solder corrode).
Fusible conductor 16 is by making the discharge and recharge path short circuit of protective circuit 1 across carrying out carrying between the first electrode 13, second electrode 14.Fusible conductor 16 can use arbitrary metal of quick fuse by the heating of heater 12, and such as can preferably use with Sn is the low-melting-point metal such as Pb-free solder of main component.The materials such as Pb, Ag, Au, Cu, Ge, Ni, In can be used in addition to form fusible conductor 16.
In addition, fusible conductor 16 can be formed by stacked low-melting-point metal and refractory metal.As the stepped construction of low-melting-point metal and refractory metal, such as, can enumerate the structure being carried out coating low-melting-point metal paper tinsel by plating refractory metal.Preferably using as low-melting-point metal with Sn is the solder such as Pb-free solder of main component, the alloy etc. preferably using Ag, Cu as refractory metal or be main component with them.By containing refractory metal and low-melting-point metal; when carrying out Reflow Soldering attachment to protection component 5; even if Reflow Soldering temperature exceedes the melt temperature of low-melting-point metal; low-melting-point metal generation melting; also low-melting-point metal can be suppressed externally to flow out, thus maintain the shape of fusible conductor 16.In addition, also refractory metal corrode (solder corrode) can be made by low-melting-point metal generation melting, the temperature quick fuse thus below the fusing point of refractory metal when fusing.
Fusible conductor 16 is separated from each other by being welded on and being formed and between the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 be connected with the discharge and recharge path of battery unit 3 etc., and be connected in series on the discharge and recharge path of battery unit 3, form a part for discharge and recharge path thus.
In protection component 5; if heater 12 generates heat, fusible conductor 16 melting, as shown in (B) of Fig. 2, this fused conductor is high and on the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 that area is large by attracteding to wetability; and on heater extraction electrode 15, and fused.Thus, protection component 5 can cut off the discharge and recharge path of battery unit 3.
Via the switch element 6 that heater electrode 17 is connected with heater 12, such as, be made up of FET.Switch element 6 is connected with voltage detector component 4 via delay circuit 7 described later, and control as when the magnitude of voltage of battery unit 3 becomes the overdischarge or overcharge condition that depart from predetermined magnitude of voltage, detection signal according to exporting from voltage detector component 4 is powered to heater 12, thus cuts off the discharge and recharge path of battery unit 3.
[switch element]
In protective circuit 1, heater 12 and switch element 6 are connected in series and heater 12 and switch element 6 are connected in parallel with battery unit 3.Thus, protective circuit 1 is formed with the supply access 19 supplying electric power to heater 12.Under the state that battery unit 3 is rated voltage, supply access 19 is limited the energising to heater 12 by switch element 6.Further, protective circuit 1 becomes overcharge condition for a certain reason at battery unit 3 thus in the high-tension situation becoming overrate, by switch element 6, supply access 19 is energized, and heater 12 starts heating thus, is fused by fusible conductor 16.
[delay circuit]
Delay circuit 7 is provided with between voltage detector component 4 and switch element 6.Delay circuit 7 postpones the applying of the voltage outputting to switch element 6 and heater 12 from voltage detector component 4 according to time constant, thus can prevent by being applied above the larger transient high voltage of rated value and burning of causing to heater 12.By making delay circuit 7 between voltage detector component 4 and switch element 6; even if under protective circuit 1 becomes overcharge condition at battery unit 3 and is applied in high-tension situation; heater 12 also can not burn and persistent fever before fusible conductor 16 fuses, thus can expand the use voltage range of heater 12.
Therefore; even if protective circuit 1 becomes the situation of overcharge condition at battery unit 3 and/or is applied under high-tension situation of the rated value exceeding heater 12 etc. due to the exception of charged side of charging to battery unit 3; also can postpone to apply high voltage by delay circuit 7; postpone the time be accumulated to till the heat energy burning heater 12 thus; and make fusible conductor 16 fuse betwixt, cut off the discharge and recharge path of battery unit 3 thus.
As mentioned above; in protection component 5; fusible conductor 16 is equipped with across on the first electrode 13, second electrode 14; if fusible conductor 16 melting by the heating of heater 12; then to attracted to wetability high and on the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 that area is large for fused conductor, makes between the first electrode and the second electrode cut-off thus.Therefore, heater 12 needs until fusible conductor 5 melting, and till moving on the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 during persistent fever.
But, when battery unit 3 becomes the situation of the high-voltage state of the use voltage range exceeding heater 12 and/or causes heater 12 to be applied in high voltage by the fault etc. of the charged side be connected with battery pack 2, heater 12 is applied in the heat energy that heater 12 is burnt instantaneously, and burn before making fusible conductor 16 fuse, thus the discharge and recharge path of battery unit 3 cannot be cut off.
Therefore; protective circuit 1 postpones to be accumulated to time till the heat energy burning heater 12 by arranging delay circuit 7; obtain fusible conductor 16 to fuse the required time; even if be applied in the high-tension situation exceeding and use voltage range at heater 12 under, also can make fusible conductor 16 melting and move on the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 thus time remaining heating needed for cutting off.
Thus, with regard to protective circuit 1, the use voltage range of heater 12 expands, even if when being applied in any excessive voltage that can imagine, also can cut off discharge and recharge path.
Fig. 3 illustrates in existing protective circuit 50 (with reference to Fig. 6) and the relation between the elapsed time applied in protective circuit 1 (with reference to Fig. 1) of the present invention and applying voltage (high voltage).In the existing protective circuit 50 not having delay circuit, high voltage is applied on heater 56 instantaneously, therefore heater 56 prior to fusible conductor 55 fusing time and burn, thus fusible conductor 55 cannot be made to fuse.
On the other hand; according to applying protective circuit 1 of the present invention; by making delay circuit 7 between voltage detector component 4 and switch element 6; can postpone to apply high voltage; and the time that delay is accumulated to till the heat energy burning heater 12, and the discharge and recharge path of battery unit 3 can be cut off by the fusible conductor 16 that fuses betwixt.Namely, according to the present invention, even if in the high-tension situation being applied in the degree of burning heater 12, also can postpone to burn the required time, and can obtain and make fusible conductor 16 melting and to move on the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 thus time needed for fusing.Thus, in protective circuit 1, the use voltage range of heater 12 expands, even if when being applied in any excessive voltage that can imagine, also can cut off discharge and recharge path.
When being applied in low-voltage, obtain the time lengthening making the heat of fusible conductor 16 melting, but compared with the situation not making delay circuit 7 between voltage detector component 4 and switch element 6, only make the time delay reaching the maximum current circulating in heater 6, in addition, also continuing, so as the fusing time of fusible conductor 16, can be used as error range in actual use owing to generating heat therebetween.
Fig. 4 illustrates in existing protective circuit 50 (with reference to Fig. 6) and the relation between the elapsed time applied in protective circuit 1 (with reference to Fig. 1) of the present invention and applying voltage (low-voltage).Compared with the existing protective circuit 50 not having delay circuit; in the protective circuit 1 making delay circuit 7 between voltage detector component 4 and switch element 6; apply voltage comparatively mild relative to the ascending curve in elapsed time, the accumulation heat when reaching maximum voltage becomes about about 50% of existing protective circuit 50.This is equivalent to the fusing time as fusible conductor 16, extends 50% of time of delay, such as, when time of delay is 1000msec, only extends 0.5sec, can be used as error range in actual use.Therefore, problem can not be become by the prolongation of the fusing time when applying low-voltage making delay circuit 7 cause between voltage detector component 4 and switch element 6.
[time constant]
Here, the time constant of delay circuit 7 is preferably set to and makes heater 12 at least in fusible conductor 16 melting, and move to the first electrode 13, second electrode 14 thus cut off needed for time remaining heating, be such as more than 100msec.
If time constant is shorter than 100msec, then executed to heater 12 alive time of delay not enough, heater 12 prior to fusible conductor 16 fusing and burn, thus likely cannot cut off the discharge and recharge path of battery unit 3.
On the other hand, as long as the time constant of delay circuit 7 is more than 100msec, such as, also can be 1000msec.If time constant extends, even if then also extend at the fever time being applied in heater 6 in high-tension situation, therefore, it is possible to make fusible conductor 16 fuse more reliably.
[formation of delay circuit]
Delay circuit 7 can be consisted of RC circuit as shown in Figure 1.In addition, delay circuit 7 also can be consisted of lc circuit as Suo Shi (A) of Fig. 5, and can consist of L circuit as Suo Shi (B) of Fig. 5.Further, delay circuit 7 also can arrange PWM (PulseWidthModulation: pulse width modulation) producing component 20 as shown in (C) of Fig. 5, and adjusts the applying voltage relative to the elapsed time by the active power that adjustment is applied to heater 12.
In addition, in foregoing, delay circuit 7 is arranged between voltage detector component 4 and switch element 6, but delay circuit 7 also can be arranged on supply access 19.In the case, such as switch element 6 is made up of relay (relay) element of FET and setting on supply access 19.But as shown in Figure 1, delay circuit 7 is arranged on being formed between voltage detector component 4 and switch element 6 and can reduces in rated value this point to be favourable.

[table 1]
As shown in table 1, in the embodiment 1 ~ embodiment 3 being provided with delay circuit, even if when being applied with the voltage exceeding and can use voltage range to heater, fusible conductor also can be made to fuse.This is because: in embodiment 1 ~ embodiment 3, by making delay circuit between voltage detector component and switch element, can postpone until be applied in the time of the heat energy burning heater, thus make fusible conductor fuse betwixt.
On the other hand, in the comparative example 1 not arranging delay circuit, when being applied with the voltage exceeding and can use voltage range to heater, before making fusible conductor fuse, heater self will burn due to spontaneous heating, thus fusible conductor cannot be made to fuse.
In addition, if comparing embodiment 1 ~ embodiment 3, be then in the embodiment 1 of 100msec in time of delay, fusible conductor can be made to fuse when applying voltage is 10 [V], but heater first burnt when more than 20 [V].In addition, be in the embodiment 2 of 500msec in time of delay, apply voltage until 20 [V] can both make fusible conductor fuse, but heater first burnt when 50 [V].On the other hand, be in the embodiment 3 of 1000msec in time of delay, even if fusible conductor also can be made to fuse when applying voltage is 50 [V].
That is, in the known protective circuit being provided with delay circuit, along with the prolongation of time of delay, even if applying fusible conductor also can be made to fuse when voltage is larger, that is, can by heater can the range set of operation voltage must be wider.
