Abstract

A jump starting system safety device includes an automatic safety jumper module that safely delivers energy between a discharged automotive battery and a built-in or externally add-on automatic safety jumper module. The automatic safety jumper module is comprised of a solid state high energy safety power switch with smart controls and a high energy safety power switch. The high energy safety power switch is controlled by a micro-controller with reverse polarity protections and actively monitored input signals.

Claims (14)

1 . A solid state high energy safety power switch with smart controls comprising:

Multiple solid state devices which are electronically configured to act as a power switch with high current capabilities;

Digital controls which are programmed with a time sequence and duty cycle for the energizing and de-energizing of two systems; and

A Matching polarity detector

wherein the said multiple solid state devices are controlled by said digital controls that prevent energy transfer between the two systems until said matching polarity detector signals proper polarity is achieved.

2 . The invention of claim 1 , wherein the multiple solid state devices are MOSFETS.

3 . The invention of claim 1 , wherein the digital controls are micro-controllers.

4 . The invention of claim 1 , wherein the digital controls are microprocessors.

5 . The invention of claim 1 , wherein the matching polarity detector is a DC electrical system with positive and negative potentials.

6 . The invention of claim 1 , wherein the digital controls actively monitor an increase or decrease to the Vgs voltage to determine the status of the two systems.

7 . The invention of claim 6 , wherein the Vgs voltage is set to predetermined reference voltage around 100 mV.

8 . The invention of claim 1 , wherein the time sequence will delay activating the energy transfer until proper connection is engaged between all internal solid-state devices.

9 . The invention of claim 1 , wherein such solid state high energy safety power switch with smart controls is integrated as an internal component of a larger system, such as a power supply.

10 . The invention of claim 1 , wherein such solid state high energy safety power switch with smart controls is an external component that is externally mounted and direct connected.
