Abstract: The invention relates to a device for measuring battery voltage including an accumulator (Ai), characterized in that said measuring device comprises: an alternating current generator (II), at least one first diode (D1i) and at least one second diode (D2i) arranged in series such that said first diode (D1i) is connected to the positive pole (+) of said accumulator (Ai) by means of the cathode thereof and to the cathode of said second diode (D2) by means of the anode thereof and such that said second diode (D2i) is connected to the negative pole (?) of said accumulator (Ai) by means of the anode thereof and to the anode of said first diode (D1i) by means of the cathode thereof, a reading capacitor (C1) connected to the central point (N) between said first (D1i) and second (D2i) diodes and to a means (3) for determining the voltage across the terminals of said accumulator (Ai) from the voltage variation at the central point (N).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for controlling the voltage of a cell of a fuel cell, characterized in that said control device comprises a first transistor (Q1) associated with the cell, which is connected to the cell via the base thereof and to a current generator, and a control voltage source (VRi) inserted between the cell and the first associated transistor (Q1), the control voltage source supplying a control voltage equal to the voltage differential between the first and second threshold voltages, such that: when the cell has a voltage (V1) higher than a first threshold voltage, the first transistor (Q1) has a voltage (Vbe1), at the terminals of the base-emitter junction thereof, which is higher than the second threshold voltage, and which conducts the current, and, when the cell has a voltage (V1) which is lower than the first threshold voltage, the first transistor (Q1) has a voltage (Vbe1), at the terminals of the base-emitter junction thereof, which is lower than the second threshold voltage and w

Abstract: The invention relates to a storage battery (4) comprising at least first and second branches (Br1, Br2) each having at least first (E1,1, E1,2) and second (E2,1, E2,2) storage cells connected in series, the battery further comprising a switch (D2,1) by means of which the first storage cells are connected in parallel and by means of which the second storage cells are connected in parallel, the cut-off threshold of the switch being designed to conduct the current when one of said storage cells forms an open circuit.
