Patent number: 12151607Abstract: A brake lamp control method of a vehicle is provided. The method includes determining whether a deceleration of the vehicle based on regenerative brake through the electric motor is present in a hysteresis period between an off threshold as a reference for turning off a brake lamp and an on threshold as a reference for turning on the brake lamp. When the deceleration of the vehicle is present in the hysteresis period, the method includes determining a state of the brake lamp before the deceleration of the vehicle enters the hysteresis period. In response to determining that the brake lamp is turned on or off for a reason except for the regenerative brake before the deceleration of the vehicle enters the hysteresis period, a request for turning on the brake lamp is set or reset based on the regenerative brake in response to the determined state of the brake lamp.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2023Date of Patent: November 26, 2024Assignees: Hyundai Motor Company, Kia CorporationInventors: Hui Un Son, Sang Joon Kim, Kyu Hwan Jo, Sung Bae Jeon, Sung Hoon Yu, Joo Young Kim, Jin Kyeom Cho

Publication number: 20240055720Abstract: A secondary battery and a module thereof is disclosed, which has an electrode assembly and a case into which the electrode assembly is inserted. The case has an inner side with a coating layer containing a gas absorbing material, which absorbs or desorbs internal gas depending on the temperature inside the case. The secondary battery may enhance safety, in terms of improving battery heat transfer and preventing fire, by not only absorbing internal gas at normal operating temperatures but also desorbing internal gas at high temperatures. This may allow the secondary battery to regulate the internal gas emission point based on an internal pressure critical point when the battery is exposed to an abnormally high temperature. In addition, the secondary battery inhibits deformation of the battery case and is highly effective in preventing degradation of the battery performance by regulating the pressure inside the battery case.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2022Publication date: February 15, 2024Applicant: LG ENERGY SOLUTION, LTD.Inventors: In Young CHA, Sung Hoon YU, Nak Gi SUNG
