Abstract

A rechargeable battery jump starting device with a vehicle or equipment battery detection system. The vehicle or equipment battery detection system is configured for detecting the connection of the rechargeable battery jump starting device with the vehicle or equipment battery to be jump charged.

Claims (15)

1 . A rechargeable battery jump starting device with vehicle or equipment battery detection system, the device comprising: a first rechargeable battery having a positive terminal and negative terminal; a positive battery cable connected to the positive terminal of the first rechargeable battery; a vehicle or equipment positive terminal battery connector connected to the positive battery cable; a back-charge diode array connecting the positive terminal of the first rechargeable battery and the vehicle or equipment battery positive terminal battery connector; a negative battery cable connected to the negative terminal of the first rechargeable battery; a vehicle or equipment negative terminal battery connector connected to the negative battery cable; and a vehicle or equipment battery detection system associated with the rechargeable battery jump starting device for detecting a forward voltage drop across the back-charge diode array, the vehicle or equipment battery detection system including a detection circuit comprising an op amp subtractor or difference amplifier whose output is fed into a comparator, wherein, if a forward voltage drop is detected across the back-charge diode array, and if the voltage is above a certain threshold or external load of the vehicle or equipment battery connected to the positive and negative battery cables, then the comparator puts out a "high" signal, allowing the rechargeable battery jump starting device to continue normal operation.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the vehicle or equipment battery positive terminal connector is a positive battery clamp and the vehicle or equipment battery positive terminal connector is a negative battery clamp.
3. The device according to claim 1 , further comprising a smart switch selectively connecting the negative terminal of the first rechargeable battery and the vehicle or equipment negative terminal battery connector.
4. The device according to claim 2, wherein, if the voltage is above the threshold, then the negative terminal of the first rechargeable battery continues being selectively connected to the vehicle or equipment negative terminal battery connector by the smart switch while the negative terminal of the first rechargeable battery remains connected to the vehicle or equipment negative terminal battery connector.
5. The device according to claim 1 , further comprising a microcontroller unit having a jump starting device logic controlled by the microcontroller unit.
6. The device according to claim 5, wherein, if the forward voltage drop detected is below a certain threshold, then the comparator puts out a "low" signal, instructing the jump starting device logic controlled by the microcontroller unit to open the smart switch, disconnecting the negative battery terminal of the rechargeable battery of the rechargeable battery jump starting device from the negative battery cable, thus removing internal battery voltage from being applied across the positive and negative battery terminal connectors and rendering the positive and negative battery terminal connectors inactive or dead.
7. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the back-charge diode array is connected along the positive battery cable.
8. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the smart switch is connected along the negative battery cable.
