[0074] The negative electrode of the heat management unit relay K5 is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the heat management unit 200 and the positive electrode of the low-temperature battery 300, respectively, and the positive electrode of the heat management unit relay K5 is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the power battery discharge relay K3.

[0075] The negative electrode of the low-temperature battery relay K6 is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the heat management unit relay K5, and the positive electrode of the low-temperature battery relay K6 is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the low-temperature battery 300.

[0077] Further, the battery high-voltage box 500 further comprises:

[0078] A current-limiting device, which is electrically connected between the power battery 100 and the thermal management unit 200.

[0079] Since the power battery 100, the low-temperature battery 300 and the thermal management unit 200 can be at different voltage platforms, after the power battery 100 normally discharges, the power battery 100 can supply power to the low-temperature battery 300 and the thermal management unit 200, so as to protect the low-temperature battery 300 and the thermal management unit 200 from overcharging. The current-limiting device is arranged between the power battery 100 and the thermal management unit 200, which can effectively limit the charging current and has a protection effect.

[0081] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 To protect against overcharging, the DCDC converter is installed to limit the charging current, and the DCDC converter has strong applicability. The DCDC converter is connected in parallel on the positive and negative pole circuit of the power battery 100.

[0082] In other embodiments, the current-limiting device is a current-limiting resistor, one end of which is electrically connected to the negative pole of the thermal management unit relay K5, and the other end of which is electrically connected to the positive pole of the thermal management unit 200 and the negative pole of the low-temperature battery relay.

[0083] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2As shown, when the power battery 100 and the low-temperature battery 300 and the thermal management unit 200 can be at the same voltage platform or similar platform, in order to protect from overcharging, a current-limiting resistor R2 with lower cost can be selected, which is connected in series to the positive electrode circuit of the power battery 100.

[0084] Further, the battery high-voltage box 500 further comprises:

[0085] The power battery pre-charging relay K2 and the voltage-dividing current-limiting resistor R1 connected in series to the power battery pre-charging relay K2 are connected in parallel to the power battery discharge relay K3.

[0086] Specifically, the power battery pre-charging relay K2 is arranged to control the on-off of the pre-charging circuit connected in parallel to the discharge circuit before the power battery 100 is enabled to discharge, and the voltage-dividing current-limiting resistor R1 is arranged to divide voltage and limit current on the pre-charging circuit.

[0087] Further, the power battery 100 further comprises a charging interface, and the battery high-voltage box 500 further comprises:

[0088] The power battery charging relay K4, the negative electrode of which is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the power battery 100, and the positive electrode of which is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the charging interface,

[0089] The negative electrode of the charging interface is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the power battery negative electrode relay K1.

[0090] Specifically, the power battery charging relay K4 is arranged to control the on-off of the positive electrode circuit of the power battery charging, and the negative electrode circuit of the power battery charging is controlled by the power battery negative electrode relay K1.

[0091] Further, the battery high-voltage box 500 further comprises:

[0094] The control method of the flow machine equipment hybrid battery device according to the second aspect of the present application, as shown in the figure, comprises a discharging process, which comprises the following steps: Figure 4

[0095] S1, self-checking of the power battery is performed, and after the self-checking is correct, the negative electrode of the power battery is connected to the negative electrode of the thermal management unit;

[0096] S2, it is detected whether the power battery is at a working temperature, and if yes, S4 is entered; otherwise, S3 is entered;

[0097] S3, the low-temperature battery is connected to the thermal management unit to preheat the power battery to a rated working temperature by the thermal management unit, pre-charging is performed, and after the pre-charging is completed, a working mode is entered;

[0098] S4, pre-charging is directly performed, and after the pre-charging is completed, the working mode is entered.

[0099] The control method of the flow machine equipment hybrid battery device according to the second aspect of the present application refers to the flow machine equipment hybrid device of the first aspect of the present application, first, self-checking of the power battery is performed, the self-checking items include detecting the voltage, temperature and insulation of the power battery, after the self-checking is correct, the negative electrode of the power battery is connected to the negative electrode of the thermal management unit; secondly, it is detected whether the power battery is at a working temperature, if yes, pre-charging is directly performed, after the pre-charging is completed, the discharging circuit of the power battery is connected to enter a normal discharging working mode, otherwise, the low-temperature battery is connected to the thermal management unit, the thermal management unit is powered by the low-temperature battery to operate to preheat the power battery, until the power battery is preheated to a rated working temperature, pre-charging is performed, and after the pre-charging is completed, the discharging circuit of the power battery is connected to enter the normal discharging working mode.

[0100] The discharging process of the control method of the flow machine equipment hybrid battery device according to the second aspect of the present application, before the power battery normally works, the working temperature of the power battery is detected, if the temperature is at a normal working temperature, the working mode can be directly entered, if the temperature is lower than the normal working temperature, the low-temperature battery is connected to the thermal management unit to preheat the power battery, until the power battery reaches a rated working temperature, and then the normal working mode discharging is supplied to drive the flow machine. The discharging process control is simple, realizes stable and reliable monitoring of the working temperature of the power battery and makes the power battery work at a rated working temperature, and ensures the stable and normal working of the power battery.

[0101] In addition, after the power battery enters the normal discharging working mode, the temperature of the power battery may be too high, at this time, the thermal management unit can be controlled to receive the battery BMS instruction to start the cooling work of the power battery.

[0102] ​Furthermore, the hybrid battery device for the flow turbine equipment includes a high-voltage battery box, which includes a power battery negative terminal relay K1, a power battery discharge relay K3, a thermal management unit relay K5, a low-temperature battery relay K6, a current limiting device, and a power battery pre-charge relay K2. For the specific structure, please refer to the description of this embodiment of the hybrid battery device for the flow turbine equipment. Under this structure,

[0103] Step S3 specifically includes:

[0104] S31. Close the low-temperature battery relay K6 to preheat the power battery;

[0105] S32. Preheat the power battery to the rated operating temperature and close the thermal management unit relay K5.

[0106] S33. Close the power battery pre-charge relay K2 to perform pre-charge until the power battery load side voltage reaches the set threshold.

[0107] S34. After pre-charging is complete, close the power battery discharge relay K3 and open the power battery pre-charge relay K2 to enter the working mode.

[0108] Step S4 includes:

[0109] S41, Close the thermal management unit relay K5;

[0110] S42. Close the power battery pre-charge relay K2 to perform pre-charge until the power battery load side voltage reaches the set threshold.

[0111] S43. After pre-charging is completed, close the power battery discharge relay K3, open the power battery pre-charge relay K2, and close the low-temperature battery relay K6 to enter the working mode.

[0112] In other words, such as Figure 3 As shown, after the self-test is successful, firstly, it is determined whether the power battery is at the rated operating temperature. If the power battery is at the operating temperature, the thermal management unit relay K5 is closed, and then the power battery pre-charge relay K2 is closed to perform pre-charge until the power battery load side voltage reaches the set threshold. When the power battery pre-charge is completed, the power battery discharge relay K3 is closed, the power battery pre-charge relay K2 is opened, and the low temperature battery relay K6 is closed to enter the normal discharge working mode.

[0113] If the power battery is below the operating temperature, the low temperature battery relay K6 is closed to preheat the power battery until it reaches the rated operating temperature. Once the power battery reaches the rated operating temperature, the thermal management unit relay K5 and the power battery precharge relay K2 are closed in sequence to perform precharge. After precharge is completed, the power battery discharge relay K3 is closed and the power battery precharge relay K2 is opened to enter the discharge working mode.

[0114] Wherein, before the power battery enters the normal discharge mode, the power battery pre-charge relay K2 is closed for pre-charge, because the power consumption equipment of the flow machine device has a capacitor, and if the power battery discharge relay K3 is directly closed, a large instantaneous current will cause the relay to stick, and the pre-charge can limit the current value in the process of charging the capacitor of the power consumption equipment, that is, the pre-charge makes the power battery load side voltage gradually reach the set threshold, prevents the relay from sticking, and has the effect of a buffer protection circuit.

[0115] In addition, when the power battery is in normal discharge, the power battery negative relay K1, the power battery discharge relay K3, the thermal management unit relay K5 and the low-temperature battery relay K6 are closed, and a loop for reverse charging the thermal management unit and the low-temperature battery is formed, which can not only continuously supply power to the thermal management unit, but also can reverse the power to the low-temperature battery, which is practical and effectively reduces the use cost and energy consumption of the equipment.

[0116] Further, in step S33, the threshold range is set to 90%~95% of the rated voltage of the power battery.

[0117] Specifically, when the actual load side voltage of the power battery is pre-charged to 90%~95% of the rated voltage of the power battery, the power battery discharge relay K3 can be closed, which avoids the large instantaneous current causing the relay to stick.

[0118] Further, the power battery further comprises a charging interface, and the battery high-voltage box 500 further comprises a power battery charging relay K4, and the control method further comprises a charging process, as shown in Figure 5 The charging process comprises the following steps:

[0119] S100, self-checking of the power battery is performed, and after the self-checking is correct, the power battery negative relay K1 is closed;

[0120] S200, when the CC2 signal is detected, whether the power battery is in a working temperature is detected,

[0121] Yes, the power battery charging relay K4 is closed for fast charging until the charging is completed;

[0122] Otherwise, the low-temperature battery relay K6 is closed to preheat the power battery to the rated working temperature, after the preheating is completed, the thermal management unit relay K5 is closed, and then the power battery charging relay K4 is closed for fast charging until the charging is completed.

[0123] The specific charging process is as shown in Figure 3As shown, first, after self-checking is correct, the CC2 signal is detected by the battery BMS to enter the charging mode, before normal charging, it also needs to detect whether the power battery is at working temperature, if it is at normal working temperature, the power battery charging relay K4 is directly closed, the power battery negative relay K1 and the power battery charging relay K4 are closed at the same time to form a charging circuit to charge the power battery quickly until the charging is completed; if it is detected that the power battery is not at working temperature, the low-temperature battery relay K6 needs to be closed to make the low-temperature battery supply power to the thermal management unit to preheat the power battery, after the power battery reaches the rated working temperature, the thermal management unit relay K5 is closed, then the power battery charging relay K4 is closed to charge the power battery quickly, at this time, the thermal management unit and the low-temperature battery can also be reverse charged during charging.

[0124] In summary, according to the control method of the power battery, the charging and discharging process can preheat the power battery to the rated working temperature before starting the power battery under the condition of being lower than the working temperature, and then use the power battery, which ensures the normal charging and discharging work of the power battery. In addition, when the power battery is normally charged and discharged after preheating, the thermal management unit and the low-temperature battery can be reverse powered and powered, the control is simple and accurate, the energy consumption cost is low, and the working efficiency of the power battery is effectively improved. In addition, when the temperature of the power battery is too high during normal work, the thermal management unit can be directly driven to cool the power battery, which effectively ensures the stable work of the battery.

[0125] The above is the preferred embodiment of the present application, it should be noted that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, can make a number of improvements and refinements, these improvements and refinements should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
