Definitions

  • This invention relates to battery charging systems and, in particular, to battery charging systems for lithium ion batteries.
  • Electrochemical storage batteries are well known in commerce.
  • the term battery is used to refer to a device comprising one or more electrochemical cells.
  • These electrochemical cells comprise two active electrodes and an ionically conductive electrolyte interposed between the electrodes.
  • Such cells are designed to convert the energy stored within the cell, in the form of reactable chemical materials, into an electric current.
  • the reactable chemicals one of which is capable of oxidizing the other, are kept separate from one another, typically within the structure of the two electrodes, to prevent the direct reaction of these chemicals.
  • the driving force for the spontaneous reaction of these chemicals appears as a voltage at the interface between each electrode and the electrolyte, and through electrical connections within the electrodes, to the external terminals of the cell.
  • the reaction of the chemical materials takes place spontaneously when an external circuit connecting the two electrodes is closed, permitting current to flow from one electrode to the other, and the oxidation of one material by the other.
  • Electrochemical cells and batteries fall into two distinct categories. In some batteries the reactions taking place within the cells during discharge produce products which, due to their chemical or physical nature, cannot be reconverted into the original reactable chemical materials . Such batteries are called primary or non-rechargeable batteries.
  • the common alkaline battery is an example of a primary battery. When the chemical energy stored originally within such primary cells is consumed, the cells are of no further use.
  • the chemical and physical nature of the products of cell discharge are such that , by forcing a current through the discharged cell in a direction opposite to that produced by the cell during discharge, the products can be reconverted into the original reactable chemical materials.
  • the cell is then capable of a further discharge.
  • Such cells and batteries are called secondary or rechargeable batteries.
  • the common lead-acid battery is an example of a secondary battery.
  • the terminal voltage decreases only slightly during discharge and then decreases abruptly, as shown in FIG. 1, as the reactable chemical materials are completely consumed.
  • the capacity of the cell is defined as the charge withdrawn from the cell, expressed in coulombs or amp hours, before a predefined cutoff voltage is reached.
  • the cutoff voltage may be selected based upon the requirements of the device being powered, but is typically chosen, in the case of a cell which behaves as shown in FIG. 1, as a voltage in the near vertical region of the discharge curve. Note that the measured capacity would not differ significantly whether voltage A or voltage B were chosen as the cutoff voltage.
  • measured capacity for a cell will vary depending upon the rate of discharge (the current being drawn from the cell) and the temperature of the cell. This is due in part to voltage drops across resistive components within the cell, such as the terminals, the tabs connecting the terminals to the electrodes, the electrode structures and the electrolyte. At a high discharge current, a greater fraction of the voltage being generated at the two electrodes will not be seen at the cell terminals due to IR drop across resistive components. The IR drop across the electrolyte may become particularly significant at lower temperatures.
  • the rates of the electrochemical reactions at the two electrodes can also limit the capacity.
  • the current being demanded by the external circuit exceeds the capability of one or both electrodes, the voltage at the electrode/electrolyte interface decreases and thus the terminal voltage decreases. Because the reaction rates at the electrodes decrease with temperature, capacity generally decreases at lower temperatures.
  • a driving voltage must be supplied to the terminals of the cell in order to force current backward through the cell and to carry out the reconversion of the discharge products.
  • This charging voltage will be the sum of voltages at the two electrode/electrolyte interfaces, driving the electrochemical charging reactions, and the IR drops across the various resistive components of the cell. In an ideal secondary cell, the voltage necessary to force a significant charging current through a cell will rise rapidly, as shown in FIG. 2, when the reconversion - 4
  • the present invention is directed to providing a method and a device for substantially completely charging lithium ion batteries, under a variety of operating conditions, without causing measurable damage due to overcharge. In this way, discharge capacity remains substantially unchanged over hundreds, and perhaps thousands, of cycles.
  • a further advantage of the present method is that the charging times necessary to achieve full recharge are surprisingly short .
  • the application of this method significantly increases the capacity available from such lithium ion cells and batteries when operated at low temperatures. While the present method was developed specifically for the lithium ion battery, it is also applicable to other similar secondary battery systems.
  • Lewyn U.S. Patent No. 5,670,862 A conventional, prior art technique for recharging secondary batteries is disclosed in Lewyn U.S. Patent No. 5,670,862.
  • Lewyn' s technique attempts to reduce charging times by compensating for the expected IR drop across the tabs connecting the electrodes to the terminals.
  • Lewyn however, a specific resistor, representing that tab resistance, is wired into the charging circuit .
  • Lewyn does not teach or suggest the importance of measuring the electrolyte resistance and its variation with temperature, nor does Lewyn teach or suggest the variation of resistance within the cell with age.
  • the voltage which the charging device must supply to force this current into the cell is significantly less that the voltage at which concern of over charge damage arises.
  • the voltage needed to force more current into the cell increases and eventually reaches the predetermined cutoff voltage.
  • the charging device will continue to supply whatever current the cell can accept at the constant cutoff voltage.
  • Such a process gives rise to charging current and voltage curves, such as those shown in FIGs . 3A and 3B. Note that the charging current in the constant voltage region decreases approximately exponentially with time.
  • the effective charging voltage will continue to be less by the electrolyte IR drop in the low temperature case, so that the charging current will also continue to be less than in the room temperature case.
  • the low temperature cell receives less charge than a room temperature cell and thus will have reduced capacity in the subsequent discharge ._
  • the constant current phase of the charging process is increased in time at low temperature, as shown schematically in FIG. 7B and approaches that at room temperature, while the effective charging voltage at the electrode surfaces does not exceed the specified limit.
  • the voltage during the now nearly constant phase of the charging process varies slightly as the current decreases and the IR drop across the internal resistance decreases.
  • the measurement of the internal resistance and varying of the cutoff voltage also recognizes the effect of increased internal resistance with age found in some batteries, particularly those with reactive negative electrodes, such as lithium, and improve capacity retention.

The electrodes were then combined with alternating layers of microporous polyolefin separator and concentrically wound to form a cylindrical element.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé d'utilisation d'un accumulateur électrochimique, comprenant les opérations suivantes: (a) on mesure la quantité de charge produite par l'accumulateur durant la décharge, (b) on recharge l'accumulateur en faisant passer un courant de charge sensiblement constant à travers l'accumulateur jusqu'à ce que la tension de l'accumulateur atteigne un point de coupure prédéterminé, et (c) on continue à charger l'accumulateur en maintenant le niveau de tension de coupure prédéterminé jusqu'à ce que la totalité de la charge retournée à l'accumulateur soit égale à la charge produite par l'accumulateur pendant la décharge précédente. Ce procédé permet de charger quasi intégralement des accumulateurs à ions lithium et d'autres accumulateurs du même type dans des conditions d'utilisation diverses, sans provoquer de dégâts mesurables dus à la surcharge. Avec ce procédé, la capacité de décharge reste sensiblement inchangée pendant un grand nombre de cycles. Les durées nécessaire à une recharge complète sont également plus brèves qu'avec les procédés conventionnels existant à ce jour. Ce procédé accroît en outre la capacité obtenue avec des accumulateurs fonctionnant à de basses températures. Il est avantageux de procéder séparément à un réglage de la tension de coupure afin de compenser une résistance interne mesurée et de charger jusqu'à un point de coupure coulombien, la combinaison des deux opérations permettant d'améliorer la rétention de la charge et de réduire le temps de charge tout en protégeant l'accumulateur contre des réactions indésirables de décharge excessive.
