Monitoring device for secondary battery, battery pack, and vehicle

1. A monitoring device for a secondary battery, the monitoring device comprising:

a controller configured to:

detect whether a use state of the secondary battery is in a first use state or a second use state;

set a first protection condition for the secondary battery, when the controller detects that the secondary battery is in the first use state;

set a second protection condition for the secondary battery, when the controller detects that the secondary battery is in the second use state;

notify, in a case that the first protection condition is set for the secondary battery, a vehicle electronic control unit (ECU) that a condition for interrupting is established, if a voltage or a state of chare (SOC) of the secondary battery reaches a first upper limit value or reaches a first lower limit value, and after a prescribed time, send an interruption command to a current interruption device for interrupting energization of the secondary battery; and

send, in a case that the second protection condition is set for the secondary battery, an interruption command to the current interruption device for interrupting the energization of the secondary battery, if the voltage or the SOC of the secondary battery reaches a second upper limit value or reaches a second lower limit value,

wherein the fit upper limit value is lower than the second upper limit value,

wherein the first lower limit value is higher than the second lower limit value,

wherein the first use state relates to a case where the secondary battery is used in a vehicle during a running or during a running preparation, and

wherein the second use state relates to a case where the secondary battery is used in the vehicle other than the first use state.

2. The monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to detect whether the secondary battery is in a third use state other than the first use state and the second use state, and

wherein the protection condition of the secondary battery is set in accordance with the detected use state.

3. The monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the controller switches a period from establishment of the condition for interrupting a current of the secondary battery to execution of the interruption.

4. The monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the controller notifies an outside of the protection condition.

5. The monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the controller switches an upper limit value of the use range in accordance with the detected use state.

6. The monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the controller switches a lower limit value of the use range in accordance with the detected use state.

7. The monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the controller detects the use state of the secondary battery, based on a signal from the vehicle side, and presence or absence of a charge-discharge current.

8. A battery pack, comprising:

a lithium ion secondary battery; and

the monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 .

9. A vehicle comprising the battery pack according to claim 8 .

10. A battery pack, comprising:

a lithium ion secondary battery;

the monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 ; and

a sensor that senses movement of the battery pack.

11. A battery pack, comprising:

a lithium ion secondary battery;

the monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 ; and

a sensor that senses a movement of the battery pack,

wherein the monitoring device for the secondary battery determines that the battery pack is moving, based on a sensor signal from the sensor, and sends the protection condition of the battery pack to an outside.

12. The monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein, in the first protection condition, the prescribed time corresponds to a difference between a required time that the voltage of the secondary battery reaches the second upper limit value and a time that the voltage of the secondary battery reaches the first upper limit value.

13. The monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein, in the first protection condition, the prescribed time is a difference between a required time that the voltage of the secondary battery reaches the second upper limit value and a time that the voltage of the secondary battery reaches the first upper limit value.

14. The monitoring device for the secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein, when the prescribed time passes after a time that the voltage of the secondary battery reaches the first upper limit value, the voltage of the secondary battery reaches the second upper limit value.
