Description

TECHNICAL FIELD A battery module assembly with a built-in wireless cell sensing unit that has excellent communication reliability and is removable on both sides and a battery system assembly including the same integrated in both parts, and a battery system assembly including the same}

Embodiments relate to a battery module assembly and a battery system assembly including the same. Specifically, the embodiment has excellent communication reliability and is equipped with a removable wireless cell sensing unit on both sides. It relates to a battery module assembly and a battery system assembly including the same.

Recently, as the development of electric vehicles, storage batteries for energy storage, robots, etc. is in full swing, research on high-performance secondary batteries is being actively conducted. Commercially available secondary batteries include lithium secondary batteries, nickel cadmium batteries, nickel hydride batteries, and nickel zinc batteries. Among them, lithium secondary batteries are attracting attention for their advantages such as free charge/discharge, a very low self-discharge rate, and high energy density because they do not have a memory effect compared to nickel-based secondary batteries.

These lithium secondary batteries mainly use a lithium-based oxide and a carbon material as a positive electrode active material and a negative electrode active material, respectively. and a case, which is an exterior material, sealed and accommodated together with the electrolyte.

Lithium-ion batteries are very important to ensure safety and reliability when used in electric vehicles, and if these limits are exceeded during operation, the performance of the battery may be rapidly weakened or serious problems may occur to the safety of the driver or passengers.

For example, if the operating voltage of the battery is too low or the battery is overdischarged, the grid is destroyed by a phase change, which seriously affects the battery performance. If an extremely low voltage or over-discharge condition is reached, the electrolyte will decrease and combustion gas may be generated, which may pose a safety hazard.

In addition, when the battery operating voltage becomes very high or the battery becomes overcharged, a synthesis action occurs at the anode and a significant amount of heat is generated. and may cause safety issues.

As a method to solve this problem, a battery management system (BMS) that can properly and efficiently control and manage a lithium-ion battery for an operating system is applied, and the battery system of an electric vehicle together with a battery pack make up an assembly.

1 is a photograph of a battery system assembly of an electric vehicle according to the prior art.

Referring to FIG. 1 , the battery system assembly of an electric vehicle according to the related art includes a BMS ECU (① main relay (②), pre-charge relay (③), pre-charge resistor (④), battery current sensor (⑤), and main fuse. (⑥), a battery temperature sensor (⑦), and a cell monitoring unit (CMU) (⑧).

In an electric vehicle battery system assembly, a battery management system (BMS) plays a role in protecting the battery by monitoring the battery and predicting its state, and managing the battery by transferring data and maintaining the balance.

In particular, BMS performs key functions such as precise measurement of battery cell voltage, accurate prediction of battery health, maintaining battery uniformity and equivalence, and diagnosing battery faults.

Meanwhile, a battery pack for an electric vehicle includes a plurality of battery modules, and a plurality of battery cells are connected in series or in parallel to each battery module.

Accordingly, since hundreds of battery cells are connected in series or parallel to the battery pack, the accumulated voltage may vary depending on the voltage measurement method, so it is almost impossible to remove or compensate for it, and it is very difficult to design a circuit measurement.

Accordingly, the electric vehicle battery system assembly employs a cell monitoring unit (CMU) that measures the voltage of individual battery cells in each battery module, an over voltage protection device (OPD), and the like and transmits it to the BMS ECU.

2A is a circuit diagram of a battery system assembly of an electric vehicle according to the prior art;

FIG. 2B is an enlarged conceptual view of the first battery module area A1 in FIG. 2A .

Referring to FIG. 2A , a battery system assembly of an electric vehicle according to the related art includes a plurality of battery modules, a power relay assembly, a main fuse, a CMU, a BMS ECU, and the like.

At this time, the battery cell monitoring unit (CMU) is located on the side of the battery module and fastened to the lower case of the battery pack with bolts, etc. is connected by wire.

For example, referring to FIG. 2A , the battery system assembly includes a total of 24 battery modules, 6 CMUs are located on one side of the battery modules, and one CMU is the voltage of each battery cell in the 4 battery modules. is sensed and transmitted to the BMS ECU.

Specifically, referring to FIG. 2B , CMU 1 is connected to each of the battery modules 21 to 24 with a first wire L1 in a state where it is fixed to the battery pack lower case on one side of the battery module with a bolt, and the battery module The voltage of each battery cell within 21 to 24 is sensed and transmitted to the BMS ECU through the second wire L2.

For example, the CMU 1 includes the battery PCBs (not shown) of the battery modules 21 to 24 and the 1-1 wire L1a, the 1-2 wire L1b, the 1-3 wire L1c, and the first Each of the -4 wires L1d is electrically connected to sense the voltage of each battery cell in 21 to 24 battery modules, and the voltage is transmitted to the BMS ECU through the second wire L2.

However, according to the prior art, as the battery cell monitoring units (CMUs) are separately located and mounted in the lower case of the battery pack outside the battery module, a separate space in which the CMUs are mounted is required, thereby increasing the volume of the battery system assembly.

In addition, as CMUs are wired to each battery module and wired to the BMS ECU, numerous wires are placed in the battery system assembly, making the wires complicated, and there are safety issues such as wire derailment and disconnection.

In addition, in the prior art, one CMU measures the voltage of several battery modules due to space problems. If there is a message that the voltage of the battery cells is abnormal, check whether there is a problem with the battery cells or with the CMU itself. This is difficult, and in some cases, the battery module and the entire CMU are replaced with a set.

Meanwhile, in order to solve the above problems, the inventors of this application studied how to wirelessly communicate each CMU to the BMS ECU through internal research. Specifically, through internal research, wireless communication units connected by wires to the CMU and connectors were additionally installed, and a method for wireless communication with the BMS ECU through wireless communication units was studied.

However, this additional mounting method does not solve the problem of the space occupied by the CMU on the side of the existing battery module. In particular, in the high vibration environment of automobiles, it is difficult to guarantee the location or fixability of the additionally mounted wireless communication units, so structural stability is not guaranteed. I have a problem that I can't.

In addition, the above internal research method does not solve the problem that the CMU is still connected to multiple battery modules with wired wires.

On the other hand, the inventors of this application studied a method of combining a wireless communication function with itself in the existing CMU position instead of installing a separate wireless communication device through additional research.

However, as shown in FIG. 1 , it has been studied that radio waves are blocked between the CMUs and the BMS EUC by numerous metallic battery cases and metallic lower case structures of the battery system assembly, resulting in a communication loss, thereby reducing communication reliability.

In other words, there is a technical problem in that it is difficult to add a wireless communication function to the CMU in the existing structure due to the problem of low radio wave transmission due to the existence of objects that block radio waves between the CMU and the BMS ECU.

In particular, referring to FIG. 1, in the battery system assembly of an electric vehicle according to the prior art, the BMS ECU (① is disposed at one corner of the lower case of the battery pack, and the direction of the bus bar terminals of each battery module) Some are arranged in the first direction D1 opposite to the BMS ECU (1), and some are arranged in the BMS ECU (a second position D2 in the direction 1).

Accordingly, even when each wireless CMU is developed at the bus bar terminal location of the existing battery module through internal research, there are objects that block radio waves between the CMU and the BMS ECU at the bus bar location, as well as the arrangement of the bus bar terminal. Depending on the location, it has been studied that communication reliability may be further reduced if it is located in the opposite direction to the BMS ECU.

One of the technical tasks of the embodiment is to provide a battery module assembly capable of solving the problem of wireless communication loss of the CMU due to the presence of objects blocking radio waves between the CMU and the BMS ECU, and a battery system assembly including the same.

In addition, one of the technical problems of the embodiment is to provide a battery module assembly and a battery system assembly including the same, which can solve the problem that structural stability is not guaranteed in a high vibration environment when wireless communication units are additionally mounted on the outside of the battery module to be.

In addition, the embodiment solves the problem that the volume increases as the CMUs are separately located outside the battery module in the prior art, the wire wiring becomes complicated as the CMUs are connected with each battery module by wire, and the problem that the wire disconnection occurs An object of the present invention is to provide a battery module assembly capable of solving the problem and a battery system assembly including the same.

Another embodiment is to provide a battery module assembly capable of solving the problem of replacing the entire battery module and the CMU as a set when there is a voltage error message of the battery cell, and a battery system assembly including the same.

In addition, an embodiment is to provide a battery module assembly having excellent communication reliability with a BMS ECU and a battery system assembly including the same while being less dependent on the arrangement direction of the bus bar terminals.

According to the embodiment, it is possible to provide a battery module assembly having excellent communication reliability and having a wireless cell sensing unit mounted on both sides of the battery module assembly and a battery system assembly including the same.

Specifically, a removable wireless cell sensing unit according to an embodiment is built-in. According to the battery module assembly and the battery system assembly including the same, there is a technical effect that can solve the problem of the wireless communication loss of the CMU due to the existence of objects that block radio waves between the CMU and the BMS ECU.

For example, in an embodiment, the wireless cell sensing unit may include a sensing unit body and a sensing antenna, and an upper portion of the sensing antenna may be disposed higher than an upper surface of the case body.

Through this, even if there are metal objects between the wireless cell sensing unit and the BMS ECU, there is a special technical effect that can ensure high communication reliability of radio waves with the BMS ECU through the sensing antenna protruding above the battery module assembly.

In addition, according to the embodiment, when the wireless communication units are additionally mounted on the outside of the battery module, there is a technical effect that can solve the problem that structural stability is not guaranteed in a high vibration environment.

For example, according to an embodiment, the wireless cell sensing unit may be detachably attached to the module case itself through a sensing slot provided in the first module case, and may be coupled to be integrated. For example, as the wireless cell sensing unit is mechanically and electrically fastened to the bus bar circuit board and fixed through a predetermined socket, there is a special technical effect of very high structural and electrical stability even in a high vibration environment.

As it is directly connected to the module PCB of each battery module, there is no need for a separate wired wire between the battery module and the CMU unlike the prior art. Also, since the wireless cell sensing unit can communicate wirelessly with the BMS ECU, the CMUs can communicate with each battery module by wire.

As it is disposed low, it is seated inside the first bus bar receiving part 313a and the second bus bar receiving part 313, so a predetermined fixing part such as a bolt for fixing or separating the battery module to the battery pack lower case. Even if the operation is performed at 312B, since it is spaced apart from the first wireless cell sensing unit 410 itself, no physical or mechanical pressure or impact is applied, so there is a special technical effect that can provide a stable and reliable structure.

In addition, according to the embodiment, the first wireless cell sensing unit 410 is directly connected to the module PCB of each battery module while seated inside the first bus bar accommodating part 313a and the second bus bar accommodating part 313 . As it is fastened, there is no need for a separate wired wire between the battery module and the CMU, unlike the conventional one, and since the wireless cell sensing unit can communicate wirelessly with the BMS ECU, the CMUs are connected to each battery module by wire, so complicated wiring problems, There is a special technical effect that can complexly solve the problem of wire disconnection and the problem of volume increase by CMUs.

In addition, according to the embodiment, the first wireless cell sensing unit 410 senses the wireless cells in each battery module while seated inside the first bus bar accommodating part 313a and the second bus bar accommodating part 313 . If there is an error in the unit, when replacing the corresponding wireless cell sensing unit, there is a special technical effect that A/S can be performed by quickly and efficiently replacing only the faulty non-sensing cell sensing unit without having to separate other components.

In addition, according to the embodiment, there is a technical effect that can provide a battery module assembly having excellent communication reliability with the BMS ECU and a battery system assembly including the same while being less dependent on the arrangement direction of the bus bar terminals.

4 , according to the embodiment, the first wireless cell sensing unit 410 may be integrally coupled to the first module case 310 , and the second wireless cell sensing unit may be integrally coupled to the second module case 320 . 420 can be integrally combined, and the data of the first wireless cell sensing unit 410 and the second wireless cell sensing unit 420 are compared with each other or the values of the two data are averaged to form a more purified battery cell. There is a special technical effect that can measure voltage.

In addition, according to the embodiment, the first wireless cell sensing unit 410 is integrally coupled to the first module case 310 , and the second wireless cell sensing unit 420 is integrally coupled to the second module case 320 .
