Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for controlling step charging of a secondary battery. A charging control unit determines a SOC, an OCV and a polarization voltage of the secondary battery, determines an OCV deviation corresponding to a difference between the OCV and a predefined minimum OCV value, determines a correction factor corresponding to the polarization voltage and the OCV deviation, determines a look-up SOC by correcting the SOC according to the correction factor, determines the magnitude of a charging current corresponding to the look-up SOC, and provides the determined charging current to a charging device.

Abstract: A charging control apparatus measures a first temperature of a first secondary battery selected from the plurality of secondary batteries, a second temperature of a coolant flowing into the cooling device, a charging current of the secondary battery pack, a first terminal voltage of the first secondary battery and a second terminal voltage of a second secondary battery closest to the cooling device, estimates a temperature of a temperature estimation point of the second secondary battery from a lumped thermal model having a thermal resistance between two points selected from the temperature estimation point of the second secondary battery, the first temperature measurement point and the second temperature measurement point, and measurement data about temperature, current and voltage, and determines the estimated temperature as a minimum temperature of the secondary battery pack, and varies a charging power provided to the secondary battery pack according to the minimum temperature.

Abstract: An indoor unit of a ceiling type air-conditioner includes a main body having an inlet port and an outlet port provided at a lower portion thereof, a heat exchanger having a tube through which a refrigerant flows, a blowing fan which forcibly causes air to flow, and a control box comprising a case which is fixed to the main body and a cover which is rotatably coupled to the case so as to open and close the case and to which a printed circuit board having electronic components mounted thereon is fixed.

Abstract: A front panel of an indoor unit of an air-conditioner is manufactured by dual injection so that the indoor unit has a beautiful design suitable for various interiors of an indoor space. The front panel of the indoor unit includes a suction grill in which a plurality of ribs are inclinedly arranged and are formed integrally with the front panel by dual injection molding. A sticking section to which a primary injection-molded part is fixed, a sealing section preventing an injection solution from flowing toward the primary injection-molded part during a secondary injection, and a scraping section formed between the adjacent ribs are provided at the ribs.
