Information processing device
First Claim
1. An information processing device, comprising:
- a plurality of secondary battery packs; and
a charge and discharge execution unit for executing a charge to the plurality of secondary battery packs and a discharge from the plurality of secondary battery packs,wherein the charge and discharge execution unit is configured to, when executing the discharge, select one of the plurality of secondary battery packs as a selected secondary battery pack based on a number of times each of the plurality of secondary battery packs has been charged and a number of times each of the plurality of secondary battery packs has been discharged, and execute the discharge from the selected secondary battery pack,wherein the charge and discharge execution unit is configured to;
detect a fully-charged state of each of the plurality of secondary battery packs, when the charge to each of the plurality of secondary battery packs is executed, and to count a number of times of the detection of the fully-charged state;
detect an intermediate state in which a remaining capacity of the each of the plurality of secondary battery packs becomes equal to a predetermined value between a maximum remaining capacity value in the fully-charged state and a remaining capacity of zero, when the discharge from the each of the plurality of secondary battery packs is executed, and to count a number of times of the detection of the intermediate state; and
detect a remaining capacity near-zero state, in which the remaining capacity of the each of the plurality of secondary battery packs becomes equal to a near-zero value closer to a remaining capacity of zero than the predetermined value, when the discharge from the each of the plurality of secondary battery packs is executed and to count a number of times of the detection of the remaining capacity near-zero state; and
the charge and discharge execution unit is configured to determine the number of times each of the plurality of secondary battery packs has been charged and a number of times each of the plurality of secondary battery packs has been discharged based on the number of times of the detection of the fully-charged state, the number of times of the detection of the intermediate state, and the number of times of the detection of the remaining capacity near-zero state.

Abstract
Provided is an information processing device capable of easily determining the number of times of charge/discharge of each of a plurality of secondary battery packs, the information processing device including a charge/discharge execution unit (21, 22, 23) having the following configuration. That is, the charge/discharge execution unit (21, 22, 23) determines the number of times of charge/discharge of each of a plurality of secondary battery packs (11, 12, 13) based on: the number of times a fully-charged state of the secondary battery pack is detected when the charge to the secondary battery pack is executed; the number of times an intermediate state in which the remaining capacity of the secondary battery pack becomes equal to a predetermined value between the maximum remaining capacity value in the fully-charged state and a remaining capacity of zero is detected when the discharge from the secondary battery pack is executed; and the number of times a remaining capacity near-zero state in which the remaining capacity of the secondary battery pack becomes equal to a near-zero value closer to the remaining capacity of zero than the predetermined value is detected when the discharge from the secondary battery pack is executed.
