Detailed Description
The following detailed description of the present invention, together with the accompanying drawings and detailed description, serve to provide a clear understanding of the present invention.
The energy balance bar shown in fig. 1 is composed of a resistor R and a shunt regulator IC, wherein the resistance value of R is 0.01 Ω -2 Ω, and the reference voltage value of the shunt regulator IC is in the range of 2.20V-2.40V.
The energy balance storage battery shown in fig. 2 is composed of three single storage batteries A, B, C which are connected in series, a balance rod is arranged between polar plates 4 of each single storage battery, the positive electrodes of the single storage batteries A, B, C are respectively connected with the positive electrodes of balance rods 1, 2 and 3, and the negative electrodes of the single storage batteries A, B, C are respectively connected with the negative electrodes 1, 2 and 3 of the balance rods.
Three single batteries A, B, C, pole plate 4, separator 5, cell 6 and electrolyte 7 are contained in the housing in upper cover 8, with balance bars 1, 2 and 3 inside the battery in fig. 3, separated from electrolyte 7 by separator 5, and balance bars 1, 2 and 3 outside the battery in fig. 4.
The balance bars 1, 2 and 3 are formed by connecting a resistor R and an IC shunt voltage stabilizer 8 in series, the resistance value of the resistor R is below 2 omega, the resistor R can be a metal film resistor, and the resistance value can be: 100mA-1 omega, 133 mA-0.75 omega, 200mA-0.5 omega, 300mA-0.33 omega, and so on. At the moment of switching on the power supply, the peak-peak value of the positive or negative half cycle of the power supply can generate large instantaneous current, and the current-limiting resistor R can ensure the safety of the circuit.
The voltage stabilizing value of the shunt voltage stabilizer 8 is 2.20V-2.40V, the temperature variation value of the reference voltage is less than 120 ppm/DEG C, and the forward leakage current is less than 50uA. The working current is determined according to the capacity and the application of the lead-acid storage battery.
The circuit diagram of the shunt regulator 8 can be as shown in fig. 3, but is not limited thereto, as long as the regulated voltage is between 2.20V and 2.40V, the temperature variation of the reference voltage is less than 120 ppm/deg.c, and the forward leakage current is less than 50uA. Since those skilled in the art of circuit design can design various shunt voltage regulator circuits according to the above parameters, they are not illustrated here.
The working process of the accumulator is reanalyzed from the embodiment
The storage battery pack comprises a single storage battery A, a single storage battery B and a single storage battery C, the resistor and the shunt voltage stabilizer 1 are connected in parallel with the single storage battery A, the resistor and the shunt voltage stabilizer 2 are connected in parallel with the single storage battery B, and the resistor 3 and the shunt voltage stabilizer 3 are connected in parallel with the single storage battery C. Assuming that lead sulfate is generated through the first discharge reaction, the lead ions A, B and C in each lead sulfate monomer are 1000, 980 and 1000, and the concentration of sulfuric acid is the same, the monomer lag is 2%.
In the first charging, A, C has higher lead sulfate concentration and smaller internal resistance, and B has lower lead sulfate concentration and larger internal resistance; when energized, the voltage drops across them are different for the same current, i.e. U A =U C <U B At this time, the current of the balance bar 2 connected in parallel with the single storage battery B is suddenly changed, the lead-acid storage battery has the charge voltage U of more than or equal to 2.4V and the charge current I of more than or equal to 15% 2 The initial charging voltage U of each cell is more than or equal to 2.3V, the voltage is in direct proportion to the charging current, and at the moment, U is B >U A =U C Since the balance bars 1, 2 and 3 are connected in parallel on ABC, U is connected in parallel A =U 1 、U B =U 2 、U C =U 3 I.e. U 2 >U 1 =U 3 。
When the reference voltage stabilization value of the shunt regulator is 2.30V and the single charging voltage is 2.40V when the current limiting resistor R of the balance bar is assumed to be 0.5 omega, and the U value is equal to the reference voltage stabilization value of the shunt regulator 2 -U 1 =0.01V, Electric current
I General assembly =I A +I 1 =I B +I 2 =I C +I 3 That I A -I B =20mA; if U is present 2 -U 1 When =0.02V, I 2 - I 1 =0.02V/0.5 Ω =40mA, that I A -I B =40mA; we refer to FIG. 1The current of the balance bar changes depending on the voltage at two ends of the balance bar, and the voltage at the point a is stable, so the voltage at two ends of the balance bar changes, and the current of the balance bar changes accordingly; from the energy formula, Q = It is again shown, that is, the size of the battery capacity depends on how much energy Q is stored, and the size of energy Q depends on the product of the size of current I and the length of time t, so that the battery cell lag must be controlled by the size of current.
It can be seen from the above derivation that the maximum voltage of the storage battery is 2.18V, the minimum voltage of the charging voltage is 2.40V, the reference voltage stabilization value of the shunt voltage stabilizer adopted by the invention is in the range of 2.20V-2.40V, the reference voltage temperature variation value is less than 120 ppm/DEG C, through experimental detection, the operation stability of the shunt voltage stabilizer integrated circuit is high at different temperatures, and when the forward leakage current is less than 50uA, the balancing bar hardly becomes a load when the storage battery does not operate. Therefore, the balance bar can repair the monomer behind as before, and the balance bar can completely ionize the lead sulfate in each monomer in the same time and perform long-term tracking control.
Capacity fade and life test:
testing the battery: 9 6-DZM-10 valve-controlled lead-acid storage batteries produced in the same batch are divided into two groups, wherein the balance rod is not added in the first group, and 9 batteries are added in the first group; the second group is 9 energy balance storage batteries of the invention.
An experimental instrument: 3 digital desk type universal meters (MS 8050), 1 digital thermometer & temperature data collector (1502A type thermal Resistor (RTD)) 1, 1 LQY-1 type vibration cylinder barometer, 1 set of 300mm digital vernier caliper, 1 set of intelligent lead-acid storage battery charging and discharging controller and 1 set of XRL-storage battery capacity tester; the resolution and precision of all the instruments meet the requirements of the test method of the standard GB/T19639.1-2005 'technical conditions of small valve-controlled sealed lead-acid batteries'.
The experimental method comprises the following steps: GB/T19639.1-2005 technical Condition of small valve-controlled sealed lead-acid battery
And (4) carrying out a cycle test on 18 lead-acid storage batteries, and carrying out a capacity test firstly.
The test results were as follows: the capacity of the first group 9 is 10Ah, and the capacity of the second group 9 is 10.5Ah; carrying out a cycle test according to a GB/T19639.1-2005 life test method;
after a four month and half time test; the first group has 6 service lives of 400 times, 2 times of 480 times and 1 time of 600 times;
in the second group, 9, no capacity fade was observed after 600 cycles.
The comparative experiment proves that the capacity of the invention is 5% higher than that of the invention without the use, and the service life is improved by 5 times.
The service life of the existing storage battery is short because if the single battery falls behind U during charging B -U A、C When =0.08V, the float voltage is 14.4v A、C =2.36V,U B =2.44V, if it is standard that each cell voltage is 2.4V, that U A、C If 2.36V, an underfill, U is formed B Over-charging occurs when 2.44V, and if AB is not wanted, the cell battery B is over-charged more and therefore the battery will end up in a short life.
The energy balance storage battery ensures the ionization uniformity of each single storage battery through the balance of the shunt voltage stabilizer and the low-resistance resistor in the charging process, so that the difference of each single storage battery tends to be balanced.
The charging process of the storage battery is divided into three stages, wherein the first stage is constant current charging, the second stage is voltage stabilization charging, and the third stage is a state of stopping charging or charging dormancy; during the first stage of constant current charging, the balance bars start to work, the working voltage values of the balance bars in the same storage battery are basically the same, the error is within 0.01V, when the single bodies in the storage battery are unbalanced, the charging voltage values of the single bodies are different, namely the current passing through the balance bars are also different, and therefore the backward single bodies are balanced; the second stage and the first stage, the balancing rod works until the batteries are balanced; and entering a third stage, if the charger is charged finally, the balancing bar stops working because the forward voltage drop of the balancing bar is greater than the actual highest voltage of the single storage battery and less than the charging voltage of the single storage battery, and if the charger enters a dormant state, the balancing bar continues working.
