Description

本発明はリチウム電池を用いたコードレス電動工具に係り、特にリチウム電池の過放電を防止するための回路手段を備えた電動工具に関する。   The present invention relates to a cordless power tool using a lithium battery, and more particularly to a power tool provided with circuit means for preventing overdischarge of a lithium battery.

電動ドライバ、電動ドリル、インパクト工具などの電動工具は一般に、回転動力を発生するモータの回転速度を減速機構により減速した後、回転動力を先端工具に伝達するように構成されている。モータの電源としては従来、交流の商用電源が用いられてきたが、近年、ニッケル・カドミウム電池（以下ニカド電池）や、ニッケル水素電池などに代表されるアルカリ二次電池を電源として用いたコードレス電動工具が多用されるようになった。   Electric tools such as an electric driver, electric drill, and impact tool are generally configured to transmit rotational power to a tip tool after the rotational speed of a motor that generates rotational power is reduced by a reduction mechanism. Conventionally, AC commercial power has been used as a power source for motors. However, in recent years, cordless electric motors that use alkaline secondary batteries such as nickel-cadmium batteries (hereinafter referred to as nickel-cadmium batteries) and nickel-hydrogen batteries as power sources have been used. A lot of tools are used.

このコードレス電動工具においては、工具の所要電圧が大きくなるに従って、当然、電池パック内に収容する電池セル数も多くなる。例えば、ニカド電池セルの公称電圧は１．２Ｖであるため、電池電圧が１４．４Ｖの電動工具では１２個、２４Ｖの場合は２０個の電池セルを電池パックに収納して電動工具に装着する必要がある。従って所要電圧が大きくなるに従って、工具全体の重量が重くなるという問題があった。   In this cordless power tool, as the required voltage of the tool increases, the number of battery cells accommodated in the battery pack naturally increases. For example, since the nominal voltage of the nickel-cadmium battery cell is 1.2V, 12 battery tools with a battery voltage of 14.4V or 20 battery cells with a battery voltage of 24V are stored in a battery pack and attached to the power tool. There is a need. Accordingly, there is a problem that the weight of the entire tool increases as the required voltage increases.

これに対し、リチウム電池、リチウムイオン電池に代表される有機電解液二次電池は、公称電圧が大きいために、必要とするセル数を少なくすることができ、この結果、電動工具を軽量小型にできるという利点がある。   On the other hand, organic electrolyte secondary batteries represented by lithium batteries and lithium ion batteries have a large nominal voltage, so the number of required cells can be reduced. As a result, the power tool can be made lighter and smaller. There is an advantage that you can.

ここでリチウム電池とは、バナジウム・リチウム電池、マンガンリチウム電池等を指し、いずれも負極にリチウム・アルミ合金を用い、有機電解液を使用した電池を言う。また、リチウムイオン電池は一般に、正極にコバルト酸リチウム、負極に黒鉛を使用し、電解液として有機電解液を用いたものである。本願明細書では、便宜上、リチウム電池及びリチウムイオン電池を含む有機電解液二次電池を総称して、単にリチウム電池と称することにする。   Here, the lithium battery refers to a vanadium / lithium battery, a manganese lithium battery, or the like, both of which use a lithium / aluminum alloy for the negative electrode and use an organic electrolyte. In general, a lithium ion battery uses lithium cobaltate as a positive electrode, graphite as a negative electrode, and an organic electrolyte as an electrolyte. In this specification, for convenience, organic electrolyte secondary batteries including a lithium battery and a lithium ion battery will be collectively referred to as a lithium battery.

リチウム電池の公称電圧は、例えば３．６Ｖと高く、二カド電池の３本分に相当する電圧が得られるから、電動工具の電源として用いた場合はセル本数を大幅に低減することができるという利点があるが、その反面、リチウム電池は、過充電、過放電を行うと著しく性能が劣化し、サイクル寿命が短くなってしまうという問題がある。また、リチウム電池を過充電すると、電解液の分解に伴ってガスが発生するという問題もあり、更には過放電を行うと特性が著しく劣化し、その後の充電で電池内部に短絡が生じることもある。   The nominal voltage of the lithium battery is as high as 3.6 V, for example, and a voltage equivalent to three of the two-cadmium batteries can be obtained, so that the number of cells can be greatly reduced when used as a power source for a power tool. On the other hand, there is a problem that the lithium battery is remarkably deteriorated in performance when it is overcharged or overdischarged, and the cycle life is shortened. In addition, when a lithium battery is overcharged, there is a problem that gas is generated along with the decomposition of the electrolyte. Further, when overdischarge is performed, the characteristics are remarkably deteriorated, and a short circuit may occur inside the battery by subsequent charging. is there.

このため本出願人は先に、特願２００１−３５６５７６号（特開２００３−１６４０６６号）において、電池パックとモータとの間に電界効果トランジスタ（以下ＦＥＴという）よりなるスイッチング素子を挿入し、過放電に至る前にスイッチング素子を遮断して電池セルを保護する回路及びその制御方式について出願した。   For this reason, the present applicant previously inserted a switching element made of a field effect transistor (hereinafter referred to as FET) between the battery pack and the motor in Japanese Patent Application No. 2001-356576 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-164066). We applied for a circuit that protects the battery cell by shutting off the switching element before discharging, and its control method.

図５は、電池電圧とスイッチング素子であるＦＥＴのオン・オフ動作の関係を示す。同図（ｂ）のように、リチウム電池の電圧は電動工具の使用と共に徐々に低下し、Ｔ１の時点で第１所定電圧Ｖ１に達すると、ＦＥＴはオフ状態となり、電池の放電を停止する。 FIG. 5 shows the relationship between the battery voltage and the on / off operation of the FET as a switching element. As shown in FIG. (B), the voltage of the lithium battery is gradually reduced with the use of the power tool reaches the first predetermined voltages V 1 at time T 1, FET is turned off, stopping the discharge of the battery To do.

リチウム電池は、放電を停止したまましばらく放置すると、充電をしなくとも再び徐々に電圧が上昇する性質がある。電池電圧が、同図（ｂ）のＴ２の時点で第２所定電圧Ｖ２以上になると、ＦＥＴは再びオン状態になる。 Lithium batteries have the property that if they are left for a while with discharge stopped, the voltage gradually rises again without being charged. Battery voltage, becomes the second predetermined voltage V 2 or at time T 2 of the same figure (b), FET is turned on again.

図５（ａ）は、電動工具のトリガスイッチのオン・オフ状態を示すものであるが、時点Ｔ２でＦＥＴがオン状態になった時に、トリガスイッチがオン状態の場合には電動工具の直流モータが突然回転を始めることになる。電動工具は一般にドリル、ドライバ等の鋭利な先端工具が装着されているから、予期しないときにモータが回り始めてしまう問題がある。 FIG. 5 (a), but shows the on-off state of the trigger switch of the power tool, when the FET is turned on at time T 2, the DC power tool if the trigger switch is turned on The motor suddenly starts rotating. Since power tools are generally equipped with sharp tip tools such as drills and drivers, there is a problem that the motor starts to rotate unexpectedly.

一方、電池電圧が一旦、第１の所定電圧以下になったら、その後再び上昇して第２所定電圧以上になってもＦＥＴをオフ状態のままにしておくことも考えられるが、ドリルやドライバで作業している時には作業を途中で中断することは避けたいので、残っている電池で僅かな作業をやり終えてしまいたいという要求もある。   On the other hand, once the battery voltage has fallen below the first predetermined voltage, it may be possible to leave the FET off even if it rises again and then rises above the second predetermined voltage. Since we want to avoid interrupting the work halfway when working, there is also a demand to finish a little work with the remaining battery.

The connection point of the resistors 41 and 42 connected in series between the positive terminal of the battery set 10 and the ground is connected to the A / D converter 65 of the microcomputer 60 via the resistor 43. A digital value corresponding to the detected battery voltage is output from the A / D converter 65, and the CPU 61 of the microcomputer 60 compares the digital value with a first predetermined voltage and a second predetermined voltage described later. The first predetermined voltage and the second predetermined voltage are stored in the ROM 62 of the microcomputer 60.

（３）過放電防止制御フロー
次に図３を参照して、本発明電動工具に用いられるリチウム電池組１０の過放電を防止するための制御フローの一実施例について説明する。この制御プログラムはマイコン６０のＲＯＭ６２に格納されており、ＣＰＵ６１により逐次読み出されて実行される。 (3) Overdischarge Prevention Control Flow With reference to FIG. 3, an embodiment of a control flow for preventing overdischarge of the lithium battery set 10 used in the electric tool of the present invention will be described. This control program is stored in the ROM 62 of the microcomputer 60, and is sequentially read and executed by the CPU 61.

まずＳ１０１で過放電フラグを０、ＦＥＴ２１をオフにイニシャルセットする。過放電フラグは電池組１０が過放電状態であるかどうかを示すフラグで、電池組１０の放電電圧が第１の所定電圧Ｖ１以下になったときに「１」がセットされ、Ｖ１より大きいときには「０」がセットされる。すなわちフラグが１の場合には、電池組１０が過放電状態であることを示し、０の場合には過放電状態にないことを示す。なお、第１の所定電圧Ｖ１の値は、公称電圧が３．６Ｖのリチウム電池の場合、２Ｖ〜２．５Ｖの範囲の適当な電圧が選定され、例えば２．３Ｖに設定される。 First, in S101, the overdischarge flag is set to 0 and the FET 21 is initially set to OFF. Overdischarge flag is a flag that indicates whether the battery 10 is overdischarged state, "1" is set when the discharge voltage of the battery 10 becomes a first predetermined voltages V 1 or less, than the V 1 When it is larger, “0” is set. That is, when the flag is 1, it indicates that the battery set 10 is in an overdischarge state, and when it is 0, it indicates that the battery set 10 is not in an overdischarge state. The first value of the predetermined voltages V 1 is the nominal voltage of the lithium battery of 3.6V, is selected the appropriate voltage in the range of 2V～2.5V, it is set to, for example, 2.3V.

次いでステップＳ１０２において、過放電フラグが１であるか否かを判別する。最初はステップＳ１０１で過放電フラグは０にセットされているのでステップＳ１０３に進む。ステップＳ１０３において、トリガ検出部８０の出力に基づいて、電動工具２００のスイッチ２２０がオンされたか否かの判別を行う。スイッチ２２０がオンされればＦＥＴ２１のドレイン・ソース間にほぼ電池電圧が印加されるので、ＦＥＴ２１のドレイン・ソース間電圧ＶＤＳに基づきスイッチ２２０のオン動作の検出が可能になる。 Next, in step S102, it is determined whether or not the overdischarge flag is 1. At first, since the overdischarge flag is set to 0 in step S101, the process proceeds to step S103. In step S103, based on the output of the trigger detection unit 80, it is determined whether or not the switch 220 of the electric power tool 200 is turned on. When the switch 220 is turned on, a battery voltage is substantially applied between the drain and source of the FET 21, so that the on operation of the switch 220 can be detected based on the drain-source voltage V DS of the FET 21.

スイッチ２２０がオンされた場合は、ステップＳ１０５に進み、出力ポート６６の出力に従い、スイッチ部２０のＦＥＴ２１をオンにすることで電池が放電される。   When the switch 220 is turned on, the process proceeds to step S105, and the battery is discharged by turning on the FET 21 of the switch unit 20 according to the output of the output port 66.

次いで、ステップＳ１０６で電池電圧が第１の所定電圧Ｖ１以下になったか否かが判定され、Ｖ１以下になると、ステップＳ１０７で過放電フラグが１にセットされ、更にステップＳ１０８で電池が過放電状態になったことが表示される。そしてステップＳ１０９において再びＦＥＴ２１をオフ状態とし、ステップＳ１０２に戻る。 Then, the battery voltage at step S106, it is determined whether it is the first predetermined voltages V 1 or less, at the V 1 or less, over-discharge flag is set to 1 at step S107, the battery further at step S108 over It is displayed that the battery is discharged. In step S109, the FET 21 is turned off again, and the process returns to step S102.

通常は、作業者は過放電表示がされると（ＦＥＴ２１がオフになると）、電池パック１を電動工具２００から取り出し、図示しない充電器に接続して、充電後使用する。電池組１０が充電されたかどうかの判定は、電池組１０に流れる電流の向きを検出することにより行われる。即ち、充電電流はダイオード２２を介して電池組１０の正極側から負極側に流れるので、電流検出部７０が検出した電流の方向に従い、充電がされたかどうかの判別をしている。   Normally, when an overdischarge display is made (when the FET 21 is turned off), the operator takes out the battery pack 1 from the electric tool 200, connects it to a charger (not shown), and uses it after charging. Whether the battery set 10 is charged is determined by detecting the direction of the current flowing through the battery set 10. That is, since the charging current flows from the positive electrode side to the negative electrode side of the battery set 10 via the diode 22, it is determined whether or not charging has been performed according to the direction of the current detected by the current detection unit 70.

ステップＳ１０９でＦＥＴ２１をオフ状態にして電池組１０の放電を停止すると、充電をしなくても電池電圧は再び徐々に上昇する。また、ステップＳ１０６で電池電圧が第１の所定電圧Ｖ１以下でないときはステップＳ１０３に戻り、スイッチ２２０とＦＥＴ２１がオン状態で、電池電圧が第１の所定電圧Ｖ１以下でないときに、途中でスイッチ２２０がオフされた場合には、ステップＳ１０４でＦＥＴ２１をオフ状態にしている。 When the FET 21 is turned off in step S109 to stop the discharge of the battery set 10, the battery voltage gradually increases again without being charged. Furthermore, the process returns to step S103 when the battery voltage in step S106 is not the first predetermined voltages V 1 or less, in the on-state switch 220 and FET 21, when the battery voltage is not the first predetermined voltages V 1 or less, in the middle If the switch 220 is turned off, the FET 21 is turned off in step S104.

ステップＳ１０２で過放電フラグが１であると判定されると、ステップＳ１１０に進み、電池電圧が第２の所定電圧Ｖ２以上になったか否かが判定される。このＶ２の値は、公称電圧が３．６Ｖのリチウム電池の場合、例えば２．５Ｖ〜３．０Ｖの範囲の適当な値が選ばれる。ステップＳ１１０の判定が否定（ＮＯ）の場合は、ＦＥＴ２１はオフ状態を維持するが、肯定（ＹＥＳ）の場合は、ステップＳ１１１，Ｓ１１２に進み、過放電フラグを０にセットし、過放電表示もオフにする。 When the over-discharge flag in step S102 is judged to be 1, the process proceeds to step S110, whether the battery voltage reaches the second predetermined voltage V 2 or more is determined. The value of this V 2, if the nominal voltage is lithium battery 3.6V, for example, a suitable value in the range of 2.5V~3.0V selected. If the determination in step S110 is negative (NO), the FET 21 remains off, but if the determination is affirmative (YES), the process proceeds to steps S111 and S112, the overdischarge flag is set to 0, and the overdischarge display is also displayed. Turn off.

従来は、電池電圧がＶ２を超えるとＦＥＴ２１をオン状態にしていたが、本発明ではその後、ステップＳ１１３に進みスイッチ２２０がオン状態か否かを判定し、その判定が否定（ＮＯ）になるまで待機する。つまり、電池電圧がＶ２を超えたときに突然モータが回り出すことがないように、一旦スイッチ２２０がオフ状態にされるまで待機する。 Conventionally, the battery voltage had to the ON state FET21 exceeds V 2, then in the present invention, the switch 220 proceeds to step S113 it is determined whether the ON state, the determination is negative (NO) Wait until. In other words, so as not to out around suddenly motor when the battery voltage exceeds V 2, once waits until the switch 220 is turned off.

ステップＳ１１３の判定が否定（ＮＯ）になると、前述のステップＳ１０２に戻り、再び過放電フラグが１か否か判定され、上記した一連の動作（ステップＳ１０２〜ステップＳ１１３）を繰り返す。   If the determination in step S113 is negative (NO), the process returns to step S102 described above, and it is determined again whether or not the overdischarge flag is 1, and the above-described series of operations (steps S102 to S113) is repeated.

上記の動作を図４を用いて説明する。スイッチ２２０及びＦＥＴ２１がオン状態の場合、電池電圧は低下する。時点Ｔ１で電池電圧が第１の所定電圧Ｖ１以下となるためＦＥＴ２１がオフ状態になり、電池組１０の放電を停止すると、充電をしなくても電池電圧は再び徐々に上昇する。時点Ｔ２で電池電圧は第２の所定電圧Ｖ２を超えるが、このＴ２の時点ではスイッチ２２０はオン状態にあるので、スイッチ２２０がオフ状態にならない限りステップＳ１１３を抜け出ることはできない。従って、時点Ｔ２ではまだＦＥＴ２１はオンにならない。図４（ａ）に示すように、スイッチ２２０がオフ状態になりステップＳ１１３を抜け出た後に、ステップＳ１０３でスイッチ２２０が再びオン状態になると初めてステップＳ１０４に進み、ＦＥＴ２１がオンになる。従って図４（ｃ）に示すように、時点Ｔ３で再びＦＥＴ２１がオン状態になる。また、図４（ｂ）に示すように時点Ｔ４において再び電池電圧が第１の所定電圧Ｖ１以下となるため、図４（ｃ）のようにＦＥＴ２１は再びオフ状態になる。 The above operation will be described with reference to FIG. When the switch 220 and the FET 21 are on, the battery voltage decreases. FET21 for battery voltage at time T 1 is a first predetermined voltages V 1 or less is turned off, stopping the discharge of the battery 10, the battery voltage even without charge gradually increases again. The battery voltage at the time T 2 is greater than the second predetermined voltage V 2, since at the time of this T 2 switch 220 is in the ON state, the switch 220 can not exit the step S113 unless the OFF state. Thus, at time point T 2 yet FET21 will not turn on. As shown in FIG. 4A, after the switch 220 is turned off and exits step S113, when the switch 220 is turned on again in step S103, the process proceeds to step S104 for the first time, and the FET 21 is turned on. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 4 (c), again FET21 are turned on at time T 3. Further, since the re battery voltage at time T 4 as shown in FIG. 4 (b) is the first predetermined voltages V 1 or less, FET 21 as shown in FIG. 4 (c) is turned off again.

上述の一連の動作（ステップＳ１０２〜Ｓ１１３）は、リチウム電池が完全な過放電状態にならずに、短時間放置すれば、電池電圧が第２所定電圧まで上昇する間は継続して行うことができる。従って、電動工具による作業があと僅かで終了するというような場合は、電池を充電器により充電をせずに、残余の電池電圧を使って作業を完了させることが可能となる。   The series of operations described above (steps S102 to S113) can be continuously performed while the battery voltage rises to the second predetermined voltage if the lithium battery is left in a short time without being completely overdischarged. it can. Therefore, in the case where the work with the power tool is to be completed in a short time, the work can be completed using the remaining battery voltage without charging the battery with the charger.

すなわち図２，図３のような構成及び制御によれば、リチウム電池が過放電状態になることを確実に防止し、サイクル寿命の向上を図れるだけでなく、過放電状態になる僅か前の残余の電池電圧を有効に且つ安全に使うことができる。   That is, according to the configuration and control as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, not only can the lithium battery be prevented from being overdischarged, the cycle life can be improved, but the residual just before the overdischarge state can be achieved. The battery voltage can be used effectively and safely.
