METHOD FOR MINIMIZING CELL AGING OF A BATTERY AND/OR BATTERY COMPRISING AN APPARATUS FOR MINIMIZING CELL AGING OF THE BATTERY

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for minimizing cell aging of a battery (1) and/or a battery (1) comprising an apparatus for minimizing cell aging of the battery (1). For this the following is performed: detection of battery parameters which describe the present state of the battery (1); checking, on the basis of a preset aging model and the battery parameters, whether the state of the battery (1) is an aging state in which the cell aging of the battery (1) is less pronounced in the case of cyclic charging or discharging than in a quiescent state in which there is no charging or discharging of the battery (1); and cyclic partial discharging and partial charging of the battery (1) if the battery (1) is in such an aging state. The method according to the invention and/or the battery (1) according to the invention are characterized by reduced cell aging. This means that such a battery (1) and/or a battery (1) to which the method is applied has an extended life. This results in particular in cost advantages, ecological advantages and improved user friendliness.

1. A method for minimizing cell aging of a battery, the method comprising:
detecting, via at least one selected from the group of a voltage sensor, a current sensor, and a temperature sensor, battery parameters which describe the current state of the battery, checking, via a computer and on the basis of a prespecified aging model and the battery parameters, whether the state of the battery is an aging state in which cell aging of the battery is less pronounced in the event of cyclical charging and discharging than in an inoperative state in which the battery is not charged or discharged, cyclical partial discharging and partial charging of the battery if the battery is in an aging state of this kind.
