열전현상을 이용한 자가 온도조절 전기자동차용 배터리팩{BATTERY PACK FOR SELF TEMPERATURE CONTROL ELECTROMOBILE USING THERMOELECTRIC EFFECT}BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a battery pack for a self-

본 발명은 열전현상을 이용한 자가 온도조절 전기자동차용 배터리팩에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 열전현상에 의해 단위별 셀의 온도를 효과적으로 제어할 수 있는 열전현상을 이용한 자가 온도조절 전기자동차용 배터리팩에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a self-temperature-controlled battery pack for an electric vehicle using thermoelectric conversion, and more particularly, .

일반적으로, 전기자동차용 배터리 시스템의 주된 문제점 중 하나가 배터리 시스템의 수명 문제이며, 이는 온도 스트레스에 크게 의존하게 된다.In general, one of the major problems of battery systems for electric vehicles is the life of the battery system, which is highly dependent on thermal stress.

이와 같은 전기자동차의 주동력원인 배터리 시스템은 반복적으로 화학에너지를 전기에너지로 변환시킬 수 있도록 전류를 흘려 넣음으로써 재충전이 가능한 2차 전지를 주로 사용하고 있으며, 이와 같은 2차 전지는 화학 에너지에서 전기 에너지로 변환되면서 부산물로 다량의 열이 발생하게 된다.The battery system, which is the main power source of such electric vehicles, mainly uses secondary batteries capable of being recharged by flowing current so as to repeatedly convert chemical energy into electric energy. As a result of energy conversion, a large amount of heat is generated as a by-product.

특히, 배터리 시스템에 열이 발생할 경우 배터리 시스템 내부의 전해액 온도가 상승함에 따라 전해액 온도가 상승하게 되어 저항도 상승하게 되며, 온도가 낮은 경우 전해액의 비중이 작아짐에 따라 전력 방출이 감소되어 시동성이 저하되고, 온도가 높은 경우 전해액이 증발되어 배터리 시스템의 수명이 급격하게 줄어들게 되므로 배터리 시스템은 최대 성능을 나타내기 위하여 전해액의 온도를 25℃ 정도를 유지하도록 한다.In particular, when heat is generated in the battery system, as the temperature of the electrolyte in the battery system rises, the temperature of the electrolyte rises and the resistance rises. When the temperature is low, the specific gravity of the electrolyte decreases, If the temperature is high, the electrolyte is evaporated and the life of the battery system is drastically reduced. Therefore, the battery system maintains the temperature of the electrolyte at about 25 ° C. in order to exhibit the maximum performance.

한편, 종래에는 배터리 시스템에서 발생하는 열을 수냉 또는 공냉으로 냉각하는 방식을 채택하고 있으나 냉각장치의 부피에 따라 배터리 시스템의 사이즈 또한 상대적으로 커지는 문제점이 있었다.Meanwhile, conventionally, a method of cooling the heat generated in the battery system by water cooling or air cooling has been adopted, but the size of the battery system also becomes relatively large according to the volume of the cooling device.

본 발명은 상기 종래의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 안출된 것으로서, 그 목적은 부피 최소화와 함께 배터리의 온도 상승시 온도조절소자에 의해 설정 온도를 유지할 수 있도록 냉각시켜 배터리의 수명을 연장 가능하면서 저온에서 배터리를 온도조절소자에 의해 발열시켜 시동을 걸 때 충분한 출력을 낼 수 있게 한 열전현상을 이용한 자가 온도조절 전기자동차용 배터리팩을 제공함에 있다.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and its object is to provide a battery having a low battery capacity, which can minimize the volume and cool the battery, And a thermoelectric conversion element which generates heat by heating the thermostat element to generate a sufficient output when starting the thermostat.

또한, 본 발명에서의 상기 온도조절소자는 상기 단전지의 사이에 개입 설치되는 것을 특징으로 한다.Further, the temperature controlling element in the present invention is interposed between the unit cells.

또한, 본 발명에서의 상기 온도조절소자는 상기 셀 커버의 내측에 설치되는 것을 특징으로 한다.Further, the temperature controlling element in the present invention is provided inside the cell cover.

또한, 본 발명에서의 상기 온도조절소자는 열전소자 또는 열전재료 중 어느 하나인 것을 특징으로 한다.Further, the temperature controlling element in the present invention is characterized by being either a thermoelectric element or a thermoelectric material.

또한, 본 발명에서의 상기 온도조절소자는 시트 형태로 구비되는 것을 특징으로 한다.Further, the temperature controlling element in the present invention is characterized by being provided in a sheet form.

또한, 본 발명은 배터리의 냉각 또는 가열이 요구되면 배터리에서 동력원인 전류를 바이패스 하여 별도의 전원이 불필요하고, 간접 방식에 의해 배터리의 온도 조절이 가능하므로 온도 조절에 효과적인 이점이 있다.In addition, when cooling or heating of a battery is required, the present invention bypasses a current source as a power source of the battery, thereby eliminating the need for a separate power source, and the temperature of the battery can be adjusted indirectly.

In the present invention, the unit cells 120 are composed of two unit cells 110 .

상기 온도조절소자(130)는 단위별 단전지(110)마다 개별적으로 쿨링(cooling) 또는 히팅(heating)하여 온도를 조절하며, 단전지(110)의 전류를 바이패스(bypass)하게 하여 작동된다.The temperature controller 130 is operated by cooling or heating the unit cells 110 by unit to control the temperature and by bypassing the current of the unit cell 110 .

이때, 상기 온도조절소자(130)는 열전소자 또는 열전재료 등 중 어느 하나인 것을 특징으로 하며, 전류 인가시 직류(DC) 전류의 방향에 따라 한쪽 면에서는 발열이 일어나고 반대 면에서는 냉각이 일어나는 펠티어(Peltier) 효과를 이용하는 온도제어 소자이면 어느 것으로도 대체가 가능하다.The temperature control element 130 may be a thermoelectric element or a thermoelectric material.

더욱이, 상기 온도조절소자(130)는 단위별 단전지(110)의 사이에 개입 설치 즉, 단위별 단전지(110)의 개수가 2개일 경우 그 사이에 시트 형태 등으로 2개가 위치되거나 그 사이와 외측에 각각 시트 형태 등으로 2개씩 구비될 수 있다. 이때, 상기 온도조절소자(130)는 단위별 단전지(110)에 최대한 근접한 위치에 장착되어 간접적으로 온도를 제어하는 것이 바람직하다.In addition, when the number of the unit cells 110 is two, the temperature controlling element 130 may be interposed between the unit cells 110, And two in the form of a sheet on the outer side. At this time, it is preferable that the temperature regulating element 130 is installed at a position as close as possible to the unit cell 110 to control the temperature indirectly.

한편, 다른 실시 예의 온도조절소자(130')는 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이 상기 셀 커버(120)의 프레임 등에 설치되는 것도 선택적으로 가능하여 단위별 단전지(110)의 외측에 각각 대응되도록 구비되며, 시트 형태 등으로 구비될 수 있으면 서 간접적으로 단전지(110)의 온도를 제어하게 된다. 2, the thermostat 130 'may be installed on a frame of the cell cover 120 or the like, and may correspond to the outside of the unit cell 110 by units And the temperature of the unit cell 110 may be indirectly controlled as long as it is provided in a sheet form or the like.

그러므로 본 발명에 의한 열전현상을 이용한 자가 온도조절 전기자동차용 배터리팩은 도 1 및 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이 단위별 단전지(110)의 개별적인 온도 제어를 위해 단전지(110)에서 발생하는 전류를 온도조절소자(130)로 바이패스하게 하여 온도조절소자(130)가 작동되게 한다.Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the battery pack for a self-temperature-controlled electric vehicle using the thermoelectric effect according to the present invention is characterized in that a current generated in the unit cell 110 for individual temperature control of the unit cells 110 To the temperature regulating element 130 so that the temperature regulating element 130 is operated.

이때, 단위별 단전지(110)의 온도가 설정치 이상으로 상승하면 이를 온도감지센서가 감지한 후 이 신호를 BMS에 출력하고 BMS의 제어 신호에 의해 온도조절소자(130)에 전류를 인가하여 냉각시키고 설정 온도로 하강하면 상기 온도조절소자(130)에 전류를 차단한다.At this time, if the temperature of the unit cell 110 per unit rises above the set value, the temperature sensor senses the temperature of the unit cell 110 and outputs the signal to the BMS, and the current is applied to the temperature control element 130 by the control signal of the BMS, And when the temperature is lowered to the set temperature, the current is cut off to the temperature regulating element 130.

다르게는 겨울과 같이 영하의 저온에 노출되어 차량의 시동이 걸리지 않을 경우를 위해 단위별 단전지(110)의 온도가 설정치 이하로 하강하면 이를 온도감지센서가 감지한 후 이 신호를 BMS에 출력하고 BMS의 제어 신호에 의해 온도조절소자(130)에 전류를 인가하여 가열시키고 설정 온도로 상승하면 상기 온도조절소자(130)에 전류를 차단한다. 즉, 단위별 단전지(110)의 온도를 상승시켜 저온에서 차량의 시동을 걸기 위한 출력을 충분히 낼 수 있도록 하는 것이다.Alternatively, if the temperature of the unit cell 110 per unit falls below the set value in order to prevent the vehicle from being started by being exposed to a low temperature of minus temperature as in winter, the temperature sensor senses the temperature of the unit cell 110 and outputs the signal to the BMS The current is applied to the temperature regulating element 130 by the control signal of the BMS and then the current is shut off to the temperature regulating element 130 when the temperature is raised to the set temperature. That is, the temperature of the unit cells 110 is increased by the unit, so that an output for starting the vehicle at a low temperature can be sufficiently generated.
