According to the description, claims and the drawings disclosed in the specification, one skilled in the art may easily understand the concepts and features of the present invention. The following embodiments further illustrate various aspects of the present invention, but are not meant to limit the scope of the present invention.


Please refer to FIG. 1, which is a block diagram illustrating a battery inspection and management system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the battery inspection and management system 1 includes an inspection device 11, a computing device 12, a label printer 13, and a cloud database 14. The computing device 12 is connected to the inspection device 11, the label printer 13 and the cloud database 14 in a wired or wireless manner, wherein the cloud database 14 may serve as an internal database of the battery inspection and management system 1, or as an external database of the battery inspection and management system 1.


The inspection device 11 is configured to inspect a target battery to generate health inspection data. For example, the inspection device 11 may include an internal resistance tester, capacity tester, charge-discharge cycle life tester, voltage detector, temperature monitoring system, battery management system (BMS) testing equipment, BMS data collector, or combinations of one or more thereof. For example, the target battery may include a lithium-ion battery, a nickel-metal hydride battery, a lead-acid battery, or a lithium polymer battery. For example, the health inspection data may include the state of health (SOH), current voltage, charge impedance, voltage drop rate, voltage recovery rate, discharge impedance, usable capacity remained, and/or classification grade, etc.


In an embodiment, the inspection device 11 may be configured to establish a simulation testing procedure based on characteristic specifications of the target battery and execute the simulation testing procedure to generate the health inspection data of the target battery. For instance, the characteristic specifications of battery may be provided by a customer in a specification sheet or obtained from specification data of the battery under test.


The simulation testing procedure may involve the use of a BMS protocol and thirty golden samples for determination. The health inspection data of a battery may include a battery evaluation report, SOH status, and/or classification of battery inspection.


The computing device 12 is configured to upload the health inspection data to the cloud database and determine a classification status of the target battery based on the health inspection data and a preset health range. In an embodiment, the computing device 12 may be a server, a personal computer, a laptop, a smartphone, an industrial computer, a tablet, or a quantum computer, etc., which is capable of uploading the health inspection data to the cloud database 14 and determining whether the classification status of the target battery meets the preset health range. Additionally, the computing device 12 may include one or more processors, the processor is, for example, a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), a microcontroller, a programmable logic controller (PLC), or other processors with signal processing capabilities. In another implementation, the computing device 12 may be one or more of a combination of a computing device of an embedded system or sensor, etc., capable of uploading inspection data to the cloud database, and a computing device of a BMS test diagnostic device, an edge computing device, a battery health monitoring system, a cloud analysis platform, etc., capable of determining whether the classification status of the battery meets the preset health range based on the health inspection data.


In an embodiment, the preset health range indicates that the state of health of the battery is greater than 20%, the classification status indicates reusing when the health inspection data meets the preset health range, and the classification status indicates scrapping when the health inspection data does not meet the preset health range. For example, a battery might be recycled when the state of health of the battery is below 80%, and may have health inspection data between 20% and 80% when the battery is classified as reusable, such battery may be downgraded for reuse in energy storage cabinet, roadside equipment, or uninterruptible power system (UPS).


In an embodiment, when difference between the health inspection data of target battery and health data of a plurality of pre-used batteries of an uninterruptible power system is less than a preset value, the inspection device 12 mark the target battery as applicable for the uninterruptible power system. For instance, when the health data of the pre-used batteries in the uninterruptible power system is 60% and the health inspection data inspected by the inspection device 11 indicates that the state of health of target battery is also 60%, the computing device 12 determines that the difference between the health inspection data of target battery and health data of the plurality of pre-used batteries of the uninterruptible power system is lower than the preset value, and marks the target battery as applicable for the uninterruptible power system. The preset value may be adjusted based on actual requirements and is not limited by this disclosure.


The label printer 13 generates a label for attachment on the target battery, wherein the label shows the classification status and configured to link to the health inspection data of the target battery in the cloud database 14. The generation of a label may be through printing, the label may be a two-dimensional barcode, a three-dimensional barcode, a quick response (QR) code, an antenna, a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag, and/or an encrypted electric insurance card, among others, and the label may feature different colors or patterns to indicate various classification statuses. For example, a label with a two-dimensional barcode and/or antenna generated by the label printer 13 may be scanned to link to the health inspection data of the battery in the cloud database. When the classification status is “reusing”, the generated label may be green or include a reuse-indicating pattern, and when the classification status is “scrapping”, the label may be red or include a disposal-indicating pattern.


The cloud database 14 is configured to receive the health inspection data uploaded by the computing device 12, and the health inspection data may be linked via the label generated by the label printer 13. For example, the cloud database 14 may include a relational database, a document database, and/or an automated database.

The sequence of step S13 and step S15 is not fixed, that is, step S15 may be executed first and then step S13 may be executed, or step S15 and step S13 may be executed at the same time, this disclosure does not impose any restrictions on the execution order. The battery inspection and management method may be applied to the battery inspection and management system 1 shown in FIG. 1 and the battery inspection and management system 1′ shown in FIG. 2. The battery inspection and management method shown in FIG. 3 is explained below by taking the battery inspection and management system 1 shown in FIG. 1 as an example.


In step S11, the inspection device 11 inspects the target battery at the first time point and generates health inspection data. Specifically, the first time point may refer to when the battery arrives at the recycling facility or when the battery is received.

In step S156, the label printer 13 generates a label indicating the classification status of reuse. Specifically, for example, the health status of the pre-used batteries in the uninterruptible power system may be 60%. When the inspection device 11 determines that the health inspection data of the target battery indicates that the state of health is 30%, the computing device 12 determines that the difference between the health inspection data of the target battery and health data of a plurality of pre-used batteries of the uninterruptible power system is greater than the preset value, the label printer 13 generates a label with the classification status indicating reusing.
