[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings of the embodiments of the present application.

[0032] The present application proposes a flexible thin film temperature sensing belt, which is pasted on a battery cell, and can collect the temperature of all cells of the whole battery pack in real time. Three temperature sensing ends provided on the temperature sensing belt monitor the ambient temperature and the cell temperature of the battery module respectively. The fast heat conduction function of the temperature sensing belt can balance the cell temperature of each battery, prolong the service life of the battery and reduce the failure rate. The flexible circuit board is used to manufacture the temperature sensing sheet with fast heat conduction, and the cost is low.

[0033] Figure 1 An exemplary structure of a flexible thin film temperature sensing belt is shown, which specifically includes:

[0034] The flexible substrate 11,

[0035] and the first temperature sensing unit 12, the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 disposed on the flexible substrate 11, wherein the first temperature sensing unit 12 is connected with the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 respectively.

[0036] In the present application, the first temperature sensing unit 12, the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 are used to sense the temperature of the corresponding position, that is, the first temperature sensing unit 12 senses the temperature of the position area where the first temperature sensing unit is located, the second temperature sensing unit 13 senses the temperature of the position area where the second temperature sensing unit is located, and the third temperature sensing unit 14 senses the temperature of the position area where the third temperature sensing unit is located. As an embodiment, in the present application, the first temperature sensing unit 12, the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 adopt the principle of resistance temperature sensing, for example, thermal resistance temperature sensing device, thermistor temperature sensing device, preferably NTC thermistor sensor device.

[0037] In the present application, the first temperature sensing unit 12 is connected with the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 respectively, which means that the first temperature sensing unit 12 is connected with the second temperature sensing unit 13, and at the same time, the first temperature sensing unit 12 is connected with the third temperature sensing unit 14.

[0038] In the present application, the first temperature sensing unit 12 is the unit for sensing the reference temperature, and the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 respectively sense the temperature of the corresponding position on the surface of the object to be measured.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 2As an embodiment, the first temperature sensing unit 12 comprises a first temperature sensing end 121 and a signal transmission part 122 connected to the end of the first temperature sensing end 121, the second temperature sensing unit 13 comprises a second temperature sensing end 131 and a signal transmission part 132 connected to the end of the second temperature sensing end 131, and the third temperature sensing unit 14 comprises a third temperature sensing end 141 and a signal transmission part 142 connected to the end of the third temperature sensing end 141; the signal transmission part 122 connected to the end of the first temperature sensing end 121 is connected to the signal transmission part 132 connected to the end of the second temperature sensing end 131 and the signal transmission part 142 connected to the end of the third temperature sensing end 141 to form a common end, and the common end is connected to the PinA pin 112 to form a signal output end PinA of the first temperature sensing unit 12; the other signal transmission part 122 connected to the other end of the first temperature sensing end 121 is connected to the VCC pin 111 to form a signal input end VCC of the first temperature sensing unit 12. The other signal transmission part 132 connected to the other end of the second temperature sensing end 131 is connected to the Pin B pin 113 to form a signal output end Pin B of the second temperature sensing unit 13. The other signal transmission part 142 connected to the other end of the third temperature sensing end 141 is connected to the Pin C pin 114 to form a signal output end Pin C of the third temperature sensing unit 14. The signal input end VCC (VCC pin 111), the signal output end PinA (PinA pin 112), the signal output end Pin B (Pin B pin 113) and the signal output end Pin C (Pin C pin 114) are connected to other devices for signal transmission.

[0040] Please continue to see Figure 2 For example, when the flexible film temperature sensing belt is connected to the corresponding device (such as BMS and collection unit), the device outputs an initial signal (level signal) through the signal input end VCC, the initial signal passes through the first temperature sensing unit 12, the first temperature sensing unit 12 and the second temperature sensing unit 13, and the first temperature sensing unit 12 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 respectively, and obtains the final signal at the corresponding signal output end (PinA, Pin B and Pin C). By calculating the final signal and the initial signal, the temperature information corresponding to the first temperature sensing unit 12, the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 can be obtained respectively.

[0041] Taking an NTC thermistor sensor as an example, R A is the resistance value of the first temperature sensing end 121; R B is the resistance value of the second temperature sensing end 131; R C is the resistance value of the third temperature sensing end 141.

[0042] The resistance value R1 is measured at the PinA pin, the resistance value R2 is measured at the Pin B pin, and the resistance value R3 is measured at the Pin C pin, and the following relationship is obtained:

[0043]

[0044] As can be known, according to the above relationship, R A , R B , R C corresponding resistance values, and then the corresponding temperature information can be obtained. B The difference between R C values can interactively verify the accuracy of temperature sensing. It should be noted that the first temperature sensing unit 12 is a reference temperature sensing unit, that is, the temperature sensed by the first temperature sensing end 121 is less than or equal to the temperature sensed by the second temperature sensing end 131 or the temperature sensed by the third temperature sensing end 141. When the temperature sensed by the first temperature sensing end 121 is greater than the temperature sensed by the second temperature sensing end 131 or the temperature sensed by the third temperature sensing end 141, it can be judged that there is a point failure in the first temperature sensing end 121, the second temperature sensing end 131 and the third temperature sensing end 141.

[0045] Compared with the prior art, the flexible film temperature sensing tape provided in the present application is provided with a first temperature sensing unit 12, a second temperature sensing unit 13 and a third temperature sensing unit 14. The first temperature sensing unit 12 is connected with the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 respectively. The first temperature sensing unit 12 is a reference temperature sensing unit. The second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 respectively sense the temperature of the corresponding positions on the surface of the object to be measured. This arrangement allows the flexible film temperature sensing tape 10 to perform multi-point temperature measurement and cross verification, thereby improving the accuracy of temperature measurement.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 3 It can be understood that a plurality of temperature sensing units can also be provided on the flexible substrate 11, and the temperature sensing units are arranged in groups. Correspondingly, the flexible substrate 11 is provided with pins corresponding to the temperature sensing units. This structure ensures the accuracy of temperature measurement and avoids the problem of large sampling error during setting.

[0047] As a preferred solution, the first temperature sensing unit 12 is arranged on one side of the flexible substrate 11, and the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 are arranged on the other side of the flexible substrate 11. This arrangement ensures the flexibility of the flexible film temperature sensing tape and allows the surface temperature of the objects to be measured on both sides to be sensed. The VCC pin 111 and the Pin A pin 112 are arranged on the same side of the flexible substrate 11 as the first temperature sensing unit 12. The Pin B pin 113 and the Pin C pin 114 are arranged on the same side of the flexible substrate 11 as the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14. Arranging corresponding pins on both sides of the flexible substrate can reduce the processing difficulty.

[0048] As a preferred solution, in order to facilitate the signal acquisition of the acquisition device (external device), the signal input end VCC (VCC pin 111), the signal output end Pin A (Pin A pin 112), the signal output end Pin B (Pin B pin 113) and the signal output end Pin C (Pin C pin 114) are arranged on the same side of the flexible substrate. For example, in the above embodiment, the signal output end Pin B (Pin B pin 113) and the signal output end Pin C (Pin C pin 114) are arranged on the same side as the signal input end VCC (VCC pin 111) and the signal output end Pin A (Pin A pin 112) by passing through the via hole.

[0049] As a preferred solution, the second temperature sensing unit 13 is arranged on one side of the flexible substrate 11, and the third temperature sensing unit 14 is arranged on the other side of the flexible substrate 11. The second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 are arranged correspondingly, that is, the projection of the second temperature sensing unit 13 on the flexible substrate 11 coincides with the projection of the third temperature sensing unit 14 on the flexible substrate 11. This structure makes the second temperature sensing unit 13 and the third temperature sensing unit 14 closer, improves the stability of temperature acquisition, and reduces measurement error.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 4 , the flexible film temperature sensing tape 10 further comprises an insulating protective layer 15. After the corresponding signal transmission parts 122, 132 and 142 are arranged on the flexible substrate 11, the insulating protective layer 15 is arranged on the flexible substrate 11 to cover all or part of the signal transmission parts 122, 132 and 142. The insulating protective layer 15 has the functions of insulation and heat insulation, which ensures that the signal transmission parts 122, 132 and 142 are not affected by temperature, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the temperature detection result.

[0051] It should be noted that the first temperature sensing end 121, the second temperature sensing end 131 and the third temperature sensing end 141 are temperature sensing positions on the flexible film temperature sensing tape 10, and the insulating protective layer 15 should avoid the sensing position area of the first temperature sensing end 121, the second temperature sensing end 131 and the third temperature sensing end 141.

[0052] As a preferred solution, a silica gel heat conducting layer 16 is arranged above the insulating protective layer 15 and / or on the other side of the flexible substrate 11. The silica gel heat conducting layer 16 covers the flexible substrate or the insulating protective layer or the signal transmission part. When the surface temperature of the object to be measured is overheated, it plays a role in heat dissipation and protection of key devices in the flexible film temperature sensing tape 10, prolonging its service life.

[0053] It should be noted that the manner of disposing the temperature sensing units 12, 13 and 14 on the flexible substrate 11 includes a patch manner, a printing manner and other manners. Specifically, the first temperature sensing end 121 is disposed on the flexible substrate 11 by a pasting manner, or is disposed by a printing or sputtering manner mentioned in the reference (Wang Xiajun, Li Yibing, Zhou Jicheng. Thin film temperature sensor sensitive functional film [J]. Materials Review, 2005, (04): 67-70.), which will not be described herein again.

[0054] In order to protect the first temperature sensing end 121, the second temperature sensing end 131 and the third temperature sensing end 141, a waterproof material and an insulating material are coated on the first temperature sensing end 121, the second temperature sensing end 131 and the third temperature sensing end 141, so as to play a waterproof and insulating protection role.
