Abstract

A storage device includes a storage unit, and an evaluation value acquisition unit wherein the evaluation value acquisition unit is configured to acquire an evaluation value including at least a first evaluation value corresponding to the storage unit in a low-temperature region and a second evaluation value corresponding to the storage unit in a high-temperature region.

Claims (27)

1. A storage device, comprising:

a storage unit; and

an evaluation value acquisition unit, wherein

the evaluation value acquisition unit is configured to acquire an evaluation value including at least a first evaluation value corresponding to the storage unit in a low-temperature region and a second evaluation value corresponding to the storage unit in a high-temperature region,

wherein the first evaluation value is obtained by multiplying by a first weighting factor and the second evaluation value is obtained by multiplying by a second weighting factor, and

wherein the first weighting factor and the second weighting factor are larger than a weighting factor in a temperature region between the low-temperature region and the high-temperature region to control charging and discharging based on determined temperature changes of the storage unit.

2. The storage device according to claim 1 , further comprising a control unit, wherein the control unit is configured to control a condition of the storage unit by comparing a value based on at least the first evaluation value and the second evaluation value with a predetermined threshold.

3. The storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the first weighting factor includes a first integral time coefficient.

4. The storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the second weighting factor includes a second integral time coefficient.

5. The storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the evaluation value acquisition unit is configured to acquire the evaluation value by changing at least one of the first and second weighting factors set for at least the low-temperature region and the high-temperature region when a value based on the evaluation value is greater or smaller than a predetermined threshold.

6. The storage device according to claim 1 , comprising a communication unit configured to output a value based on the evaluation value to an external device.

7. The storage device according to claim 1 , comprising a storage unit configured to store a value based on the evaluation value.

8. The storage device according to claim 6 , wherein the value based on the evaluation value is a sum of at least the first evaluation value and the second evaluation value.

9. The storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the low-temperature region is less than 0 degC. and the high-temperature region is 45 degC. or more.

10. A control device, comprising:

a communication unit configured to communicate with a storage unit;

and

a control unit,

wherein the control unit is configured to control a condition of the storage unit by comparing a value based on at least a first evaluation value in a low-temperature region and a second evaluation value in a high-temperature with a predetermined threshold,

wherein the first evaluation value is obtained by multiplying by a first weighting factor and the second evaluation value is obtained by multiplying, by a second weighting factor, and

wherein the first weighting factor and the second weighting factor are larger than a weighting factor in a temperature region between the low-temperature region and the high-temperature region to control charging and discharging based on determined temperature changes of the storage unit.

11. The control device according to claim 10 , further comprising an evaluation value acquisition unit, wherein the evaluation value acquisition unit is configured to acquire an evaluation value including at least the first evaluation value corresponding to the storage unit in the low-temperature region and the second evaluation value corresponding to the storage unit in the high-temperature region.

12. The control device according to claim 11 , wherein when the value is greater than a first threshold, the control unit is configured to output a signal for displaying warning, and when the value is greater than a second threshold, which is larger than the first threshold, the control unit is configured to output a signal for stopping a system including the storage device.

13. The control device according to claim 11 , comprising a control unit, wherein when the value is greater or smaller than the threshold, the control unit is configured to transmit a predetermined signal to an external device through a network.

14. A power storage system comprising the storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the storage system includes a control device, the control device including a communication unit configured to communicate with the storage device and through which a value based on the evaluation value is provided.

15. An electric vehicle comprising the storage device according to claim 1 .

16. An electronic equipment comprising the storage device according to claim 1 .
