Abstract
A battery cell for identifying a state of battery cell. The battery pack includes: a battery cell; a switch contact unit electrically connected to the battery cell; a switch unit comprising a viscoelastic unit disposed to face the switch contact unit and contacting the switch contact unit so as to generate an on-signal for displaying a state of the battery cell; and a display unit for displaying the state of the battery cell.
Claims20
A battery pack comprising:
- a battery cell;
- a switch contact unit electrically connected to the battery cell;
- a switch unit comprising a viscoelastic unit disposed to face the switch contact unit and contacting the switch contact unit so as to generate an on-signal for displaying a state of the battery cell;
- and
- a display unit for displaying the state of the battery cell.
2 more elements
An electrical assembly having a battery comprising:
- at least one battery cell;
- a display that displays information indicative of the state of charge of the at least one battery cell;
- a switch contact unit that is engaged to the at least one battery cell so as to be able to result in information indicative of the state of charge of the at least one battery cell being provided to the display;
- a switch unit that is operable by a user so that the switch unit engages with the switch contact unit, the switch contact unit induces the delivery of information indicative of the state of charge of the at least one battery cell to the display;
- a viscoelastic member that is interposed between the switch contact unit and the switch unit wherein the viscoelastic member is formed of a material that absorbs at least some of the force exerted on the switch unit and the switch contact unit when the switch unit is operated by the user.
