AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a method to improve the safety of lithium-ion batteries by applying a PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) coating on the battery tabs. The PTC coating helps control the heat generated during short-circuits, overcharging, or over-discharging of the battery, preventing dangerous situations like fire or explosion. Applying the PTC coating on the tabs is simpler and more cost-effective than applying it on the pole pieces. The PTC material used has a temperature coefficient that matches well with lithium-ion batteries, effectively blocking current when the battery temperature reaches a dangerous level. Overall, this method enhances the safety of lithium-ion batteries by controlling thermal runaway.

Problems solved by technology

This technical problem addressed in this patents relates to improving the security of laminate type secondary cells used for transport applications while ensuring they operate safely under various operating environments including extreme temperatures. Current methods involve adding insulation layers made of materials like polyethylene terepthalate plastic films to improve safety measures. These techniques aim to detect potential issues beforehand and take appropriate actions accordingly.
