1 results about "Electrochemical cell" patented technology

An electrochemical cell is a device capable of either generating electrical energy from chemical reactions or using electrical energy to cause chemical reactions. The electrochemical cells which generate an electric current are called voltaic cells or galvanic cells and those that generate chemical reactions, via electrolysis for example, are called electrolytic cells. A common example of a galvanic cell is a standard 1.5 volt cell meant for consumer use. A battery consists of one or more cells, connected either in parallel, series or series-and-parallel pattern.

Method and apparatus for controlling the voltage of electrochemical cells in a rechargeable battery

InactiveUS20040251874A1Reduce voltageCharge equalisation circuitElectrical testingElectrical batteryPhysical chemistry
An apparatus is dedicated to controlling the voltage of a battery comprising at least two modules connected in series and each comprising at least one electrochemical cell, and each coupled to voltage balancing means. The apparatus comprises measurement means for determining first voltages across the terminals of each of the modules, calculation means for measuring a second voltage across the terminals of the battery and for determining a mean voltage per module representative of the second voltage divided by the number of modules, and processor means for comparing each measured first voltage with the mean voltage per module and for delivering to the balancing means signals representative of the result of the comparison whenever the first voltage of a module is greater than the mean voltage, such that the balancing means reduce the voltage across the terminals of the module.
