MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641034418 A) filed by Marri Laxman Reddy Institute Of Technology And Management, Hyderabad, Telangana, on March 21 for 'ev battery management system fire protection and charge monitoring system.'
Inventor(s) include Mr. J. Yadagiri; Talari Mahendar; Gaddam Sai Rohith; Cheviti Sai; Mr. S. Thirupathi; and Dr. A. Vinod.
The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The Innovation focuses on the design and implementation of an Arduino-based Battery Management System (BMS) specifically engineered to address the critical safety and performance challenges associated with modern electric vehicle battery packs. By utilizing a central Arduino microcontroller as the primary processing hub, the system integrates a high-precision sensor suite that continuously tracks voltage, current, and temperature levels. This real-time data is processed and displayed through a 16x2 LCD interface, providing users and vehicle systems with immediate visibility into the battery's health and operational status. To ensure long-term reliability and prevent cell degradation, the architecture incorporates automated protection mechanisms, including a dual-relay configuration that can autonomously isolate the battery from the charger or the load during overvoltage, overcurrent, or deep discharge scenarios. A key innovation in this system is the integration of an infrared flame sensor, which acts as a dedicated fire detection module to mitigate thermal runaway risks by triggering instant shutdowns and audible buzzer alerts. This multi-layered monitoring and protection strategy not only safeguards the hardware against common electrical faults but also significantly optimizes the battery's overall lifespan and operational safety in EV environments."
