Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1> <Desc / Clms Page number 1>

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de batterie 24 volts.  The present invention relates to a 24 volt battery device.

De manière générale, il n'existe pas actuellement à proprement parler de batterie de 24 volts, et les véhicules utilisant une tension de 24 volts sont équipés de plusieurs batteries montées en série, le nombre de batteries utilisées étant lié au voltage de celles-ci, de manière courante on utilise deux batteries de 12 volts. La connexion en série de ces batteries est réalisée après l'installation de celles-ci sur le véhicule, en sorte que le remplacement de cet ensemble de batteries demande un certain temps.  In general, there is currently no actual 24-volt battery, and vehicles using a 24-volt voltage are equipped with several batteries connected in series, the number of batteries used being linked to the voltage of these. , two 12-volt batteries are commonly used. The series connection of these batteries is carried out after they have been installed on the vehicle, so that the replacement of this set of batteries takes a certain time.

D'autre part, pour permettre une capacité de décharge suffisante, les batteries précitées sont surdimensionnées et présentent donc l'inconvénient d'être lourdes et encombrantes.  On the other hand, to allow sufficient discharge capacity, the aforementioned batteries are oversized and therefore have the disadvantage of being heavy and bulky.

Par ailleurs, les besoins en électricité vont croissants sur les véhicules modernes, et la puissance des alternateurs augmente, ce qui entraîne des charges brutales que les batteries, notamment celles utilisant un électrolyte liquide, acceptent difficilement.  In addition, the need for electricity is increasing on modern vehicles, and the power of alternators is increasing, which results in brutal charges that batteries, especially those using a liquid electrolyte, accept with difficulty.

De plus, les batteries montées en série ne peuvent se charger de manière égale, l'une acceptant une tension plus basse que l'autre malgré un courant identique, ce phénomène s'amplifiant progressivement dans le temps, et les surcharges et sous-charges successives entraînent un vieillissement prématuré des batteries.  In addition, the batteries connected in series cannot be charged equally, one accepting a lower voltage than the other despite an identical current, this phenomenon gradually increasing over time, and the overloads and underloads successive lead to premature aging of the batteries.

La présente invention a pour but de proposer un dispositif de batterie 24 volts permettant de remédier aux divers inconvénients précités.  The object of the present invention is to propose a 24-volt battery device making it possible to remedy the various aforementioned drawbacks.

Le dispositif de batterie 24 volts objet de la présente invention se caractérise essentiellement en ce qu'il comporte un réceptacle permettant de loger au moins deux accumulateurs, ainsi que des moyens de connexion aptes à permettre le montage en série desdits accumulateurs, et qui incorporent des moyens électroniques aptes à assurer la limitation et l'équilibre de la tension, ainsi que l'orientation du courant de charge.  The 24-volt battery device which is the subject of the present invention is essentially characterized in that it comprises a receptacle making it possible to house at least two accumulators, as well as connection means suitable for allowing the series mounting of said accumulators, and which incorporate electronic means capable of ensuring the limitation and balance of the voltage, as well as the orientation of the charging current.

De manière évidente, le nombre d'accumulateurs montés en série est directement lié au voltage de ces derniers, le montage le plus avantageux étant celui de deux batteries de 12 volts, bien qu'il soit par exemple possible d'en monter quatre de 6 volts.  Obviously, the number of accumulators connected in series is directly linked to the voltage of the latter, the most advantageous assembly being that of two 12 volt batteries, although it is for example possible to mount four of 6 volts.

De la même manière, l'invention n'est pas limitée à un dispositif de batterie d'une tension de 24 volts laquelle correspond toutefois à la tension la plus couramment employée sur les véhicules de transport. Ainsi, si besoin était, la même technologie pourrait être employée pour obtenir une batterie d'une autre tension, 36 ou 48 volts par exemple.  Likewise, the invention is not limited to a battery device with a voltage of 24 volts, which however corresponds to the voltage most commonly used on transport vehicles. Thus, if necessary, the same technology could be used to obtain a battery of another voltage, 36 or 48 volts for example.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle du dispositif selon l'invention, le réceptacle comprend une embase destinée à recevoir les accumulateurs, et un couvercle destiné à couvrir ces derniers et apte à être solidarisé à ladite embase.  According to an additional characteristic of the device according to the invention, the receptacle comprises a base intended to receive the accumulators, and a cover intended to cover the latter and capable of being secured to said base.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle du dispositif selon l'invention, il comporte des moyens de connexion secondaires aptes à permettre le montage en parallèle d'accumulateurs avec ceux montés en série.  According to another additional characteristic of the device according to the invention, it comprises secondary connection means able to allow the mounting in parallel of accumulators with those mounted in series.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle du dispositif selon l'invention, tous les accumulateurs reliés en parallèles sont reliés en double parallèle par des moyens de connexion secondaires.  According to another additional characteristic of the device according to the invention, all the accumulators connected in parallel are connected in double parallel by secondary connection means.

Une liaison en double parallèle consiste à brancher systématiquement en parallèle les éléments de même tension.  A double parallel connection consists of systematically connecting elements of the same voltage in parallel.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle du dispositif selon l'invention, les moyens de connexion se présentent sous la forme de barres munies en extrémité de moyens de serrage sur les bornes des accumulateurs.  According to another additional characteristic of the device according to the invention, the connection means are in the form of bars provided at the end with clamping means on the terminals of the accumulators.

De manière avantageuse, les accumulateurs utilisés consistent en des accumulateurs sans électrolyte liquide, lesquels sont de taille et de poids moindres que les accumulateurs classiques avec électrolyte liquide.  Advantageously, the accumulators used consist of accumulators without liquid electrolyte, which are of smaller size and weight than conventional accumulators with liquid electrolyte.

Selon une autre caractéristique additionnelle du dispositif selon l'invention, les moyens de connexion comportent en bout de circuit une pièce apte à être connectée à une borne d'un accumulateur, et dont un élément est apte à traverser une partie du réceptacle, et à recevoir en extrémité une borne de connexion.  According to another additional characteristic of the device according to the invention, the connection means comprise at the end of the circuit a part capable of being connected to a terminal of an accumulator, and one element of which is capable of passing through part of the receptacle, and receive at the end a connection terminal.

Le dispositif de batterie 24 volts selon l'invention se présente sous la forme d'un bloc compact susceptible d'être transporté et d'être opérationnel instantanément ce qui n'est pas le  The 24-volt battery device according to the invention is in the form of a compact block capable of being transported and of being instantly operational, which is not the case.

En référence à la figure 1, on peut voir un dispositif de batterie 24 volts selon l'invention.  Referring to Figure 1, we can see a 24 volt battery device according to the invention.

Il comporte un réceptacle 1 comprenant une embase 10 et un couvercle 11, et destiné à loger des accumulateurs, en l'occurrence deux batteries 2 de 12 volts.  It comprises a receptacle 1 comprising a base 10 and a cover 11, and intended to house accumulators, in this case two 12 volt batteries 2.

Le réceptacle 1 peut comporter des moyens, non représentés, permettant soit de solidariser l'embase 10 aux batteries 2 et le couvercle 11 aux mêmes batteries 2, soit de solidariser le couvercle 11 à l'embase 10 en sorte de maintenir les batteries 2.  The receptacle 1 may include means, not shown, allowing either to secure the base 10 to the batteries 2 and the cover 11 to the same batteries 2, or to secure the cover 11 to the base 10 so as to maintain the batteries 2.

On notera que le dispositif selon l'invention peut être muni de moyens de portage, non représentés, tels que des poignées, de préférence solidarisées à l'embase 10, ou aux batteries 2.  It will be noted that the device according to the invention may be provided with carrying means, not shown, such as handles, preferably secured to the base 10, or to the batteries 2.

On notera également que la solidarisation du réceptacle 1 au châssis du véhicule à équiper, peut être réalisée de différentes manières, mais avantageusement elle est effectuée au moyen de pattes, non représentées, aptes à crocheter le bord de l'embase 10 du réceptacle 1, tout en étant mobiles le long de celui-ci, et aptes à être fixées, par vissage par exemple, audit châssis.  It will also be noted that the connection of the receptacle 1 to the chassis of the vehicle to be equipped can be carried out in different ways, but advantageously it is carried out by means of lugs, not shown, capable of hooking the edge of the base 10 of the receptacle 1, while being mobile along it, and capable of being fixed, for example by screwing, to said chassis.

Les batteries 2 sont montées en série par l'intermédiaire de moyens de connexion, non visibles.  The batteries 2 are connected in series by means of connection means, not visible.

En référence à la figure 2, on peut voir le montage d'un dispositif de batterie 24 volts selon l'invention, lequel comprend quatre batteries 3,4, 5 et 6 de 12 volts, comportant chacune une  Referring to Figure 2, we can see the mounting of a 24 volt battery device according to the invention, which comprises four batteries 3,4, 5 and 6 of 12 volts, each comprising a

borne positive respectivement 30,40, 50 et 60, et une borne négative respectivement 31,41, 51 et 61, et qui sont montées en série et en parallèle par l'intermédiaire de moyens de connexion 7 qui consistent en des barres métalliques 70 et 71, du laiton ou du cuivre de préférence, munies en extrémité de brides 72 permettant une solidarisation aux bornes 30,40, 50,60, 31,41, 51 et 61.  positive terminal respectively 30.40, 50 and 60, and a negative terminal respectively 31.41, 51 and 61, and which are connected in series and in parallel by means of connection means 7 which consist of metal bars 70 and 71, preferably brass or copper, provided with flanges at the end 72 allowing connection to terminals 30, 40, 50, 60, 31, 41, 51 and 61.

Ainsi, des barres 70 relient en parallèle la borne 60 à la borne 30, la borne 61 à la borne 31, la borne 50 à la borne 40 et la borne 51 à la borne 41, et tandis que la barre 71 relie en série la borne 40 à la borne 61. On notera que la liaison en série pourrait également être réalisée en reliant la borne 40 à la borne 31 et/ou la borne 50 à la borne 61.  Thus, bars 70 connect terminal 60 in parallel to terminal 30, terminal 61 to terminal 31, terminal 50 to terminal 40 and terminal 51 to terminal 41, and while bar 71 connects in series the terminal 40 to terminal 61. Note that the serial link could also be achieved by connecting terminal 40 to terminal 31 and / or terminal 50 to terminal 61.

On notera également la connexion particulière en double parallèle réalisée par les barres 70, qui, en coopération avec des moyens électroniques, de type connu en soi, aptes à assurer la limitation de la tension et l'orientation du courant de charge, non représentés, permet de réaliser une parfaite répartition de la charge entre les différentes batteries.  Note also the particular connection in double parallel made by the bars 70, which, in cooperation with electronic means, of a type known per se, capable of ensuring the limitation of the voltage and the orientation of the load current, not shown, allows a perfect distribution of the charge between the different batteries.

En référence maintenant à la figure 3, on peut voir une partie de l'un des moyens de connexion 7, notamment celui destiné à la solidarisation à la borne 60 ou à la borne 51.  Referring now to FIG. 3, one can see a part of one of the connection means 7, in particular that intended for securing to terminal 60 or to terminal 51.

Il comporte ainsi une bride 70 destinée à être fixée à la borne 60 ou la borne 51, et qui est prolongée d'une patte 73 portant une tige filetée 74 s'étendant vers le haut.  It thus comprises a flange 70 intended to be fixed to terminal 60 or terminal 51, and which is extended by a tab 73 carrying a threaded rod 74 extending upwards.

La tige filetée 74 est destinée à traverser le couvercle 11, qui de préférence est réalisé dans un matériau isolant, par un trou 12, puis à recevoir par vissage une douille 75, constituant la borne positive ou négative, respectivement 13 ou 14 selon que la bride est montée sur la borne 60 ou la borne 51.  The threaded rod 74 is intended to pass through the cover 11, which is preferably made of an insulating material, through a hole 12, then to receive by screwing a socket 75, constituting the positive or negative terminal, respectively 13 or 14 depending on whether the flange is mounted on terminal 60 or terminal 51.

Ainsi, lors du montage initial, après avoir relié les batteries 3,4, 5 et 6 par l'intermédiaire des moyens de connexion 7, cellesci sont recouvertes du couvercle 11, en faisant passer les tiges filetées 74 par les trous 12, puis les douilles 75 sont vissées sur ces dernières.  Thus, during the initial assembly, after having connected the batteries 3,4, 5 and 6 via the connection means 7, these are covered with the cover 11, by passing the threaded rods 74 through the holes 12, then the sockets 75 are screwed onto the latter.

On notera que dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel, le trou 12 est de dimensions permettant le passage de la borne 13 ou 14, en  Note that in a preferred embodiment, the hole 12 is of dimensions allowing the passage of the terminal 13 or 14, in

<Desc/Clms Page number 5><Desc / Clms Page number 5>

sorte d'autoriser le serrage de celle-ci directement contre le moyen de connexion 7, afin d'éviter que le contact ne soit pas réalisé uniquement par la tige filetée 74.  so as to authorize the tightening thereof directly against the connection means 7, in order to prevent the contact being made only by the threaded rod 74.

On notera également qu'il est possible de disposer d'un dispositif de batterie selon l'invention avec deux bornes positives 13 et deux bornes négatives 14, reliées respectivement aux bornes 30 et 60, et 41 et 51, en utilisant des moyens de connexion 7 dont les brides 72 sont équipées chacune de moyens 73 et 74 de fixation d'une douille 75, et en prévoyant le percement de deux trous 12 supplémentaires dans le couvercle 11.  It will also be noted that it is possible to have a battery device according to the invention with two positive terminals 13 and two negative terminals 14, connected respectively to terminals 30 and 60, and 41 and 51, using connection means 7, the flanges 72 of which are each fitted with means 73 and 74 for fixing a socket 75, and by providing for the drilling of two additional holes 12 in the cover 11.

Il va de soi que la présente invention ne saurait être limitée à la description qui précède de l'un de ses modes de réalisation, susceptible de subir quelques modifications sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. It goes without saying that the present invention cannot be limited to the preceding description of one of its embodiments, which is capable of undergoing some modifications without departing from the scope of the invention.
