Abstract

A safety device for preventing overcharging of a battery includes: a battery stack including a plurality of cells; a safety circuit connected to two or more cells and provided with an electrical conduction control unit that controls electrical conduction; and a closed circuit disposed between the cells connected to the safety circuit and provided with a switching unit which is switched on or off upon cell swelling, such that when cell swelling occurs, the switching unit is switched on by a pressing force, disabling the electrical conduction control unit of the safety circuit so electrical conduction between the cells is established via the switching unit, and when cell swelling occurs again, the switching unit is switched off, cutting off the electrical conduction between the cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a safety device for preventing battery overcharging, and more particularly, to a safety device capable of preventing safety accidents due to battery overcharging by interrupting power supply to a battery stack. Background technique [0002] Recently, in order to avoid environmental pollution caused by the use of fossil fuels, there has been a greater demand for environmentally friendly vehicles that operate using electricity, such as hybrid cars. [0003] Environmentally friendly vehicles typically use batteries that store electrical energy. The battery needs to have a large storage capacity so that the vehicle can run on electricity. Therefore, medium or large capacity batteries are used for eco-friendly vehicles. [0004] However, it is difficult to install a medium or high capacity battery in a vehicle because the medium or high capacity battery is generally large and heavy. Therefore, miniaturization of batteries...
