Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of charging and discharging technology, and in particular to a power distribution device, a charging system, a charging device, a charging station, and a charging method. Background Art

[0002] With the advancement of society and the growing awareness of environmental protection, electric vehicles are gaining popularity because they are powered by onboard power supplies and can solve the problems of exhaust emissions pollution and high energy consumption caused by fuel-powered vehicles. With the rapid development of the new energy electric vehicle industry, charging piles are increasingly needed in more and more places. However, due to site and power supply limitations, charging power needs to be allocated promptly and reasonably to maximize the efficiency of the site and power supply, which is the realization of power distribution technology.

[0003] Traditional power distribution technology, such as traditional group charging technology (such as patent CN105375552A, patent CN204928271U and patent CN106033904A), usually adopts a one-to-one charging method compared to single charging piles, that is, one charging pile corresponds to one parking space. Traditional power distribution technology is particularly suitable for charging stations that require high current and fast charging.

[0004] Unlike charging stations that require high current and fast charging, charging scenarios such as residential communities have the following significant characteristics: limited power load and long vehicle parking times allow for low-current, long-term charging. If traditional power distribution technology were directly applied to charging scenarios such as residential communities, all power modules would need to be deployed to charge a specific vehicle or a few, and simultaneous charging of multiple vehicles would be rare, resulting in low power distribution investment costs.

[0005] On the other hand, in charging scenarios such as residential communities, although the current total charging demand is relatively small, it will gradually increase in the future with the popularization of electric vehicles. Therefore, the flexible allocation of charging systems and the addition of power modules to cope with future higher current charging needs still need to be effectively guaranteed.

[0079] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0080] The power distribution device provided in the embodiment of the present application can be used in Figure 1 In the charging network topology shown, the charging network may include an operation platform layer, a charging system layer, and a charging terminal layer connected to the electric vehicles to be charged.

[0081] The operation platform layer is used to serve the internal information management of the charging company;

[0082] The charging system layer includes at least one charging system, which is used to dynamically adjust the output charging current according to the demand current of the electric vehicle and output the charging current to the charging terminal layer.

[0083] It can be understood that, when the voltage remains unchanged, the charging power of the corresponding charging terminal in the charging terminal layer can be represented by the charging current.

[0084] The charging terminal layer includes at least one charging terminal connected to each charging system, and is used to charge the electric vehicle to be charged based on the received charging current.

[0085] Among them, each charging terminal includes at least one charging plug (or "charging gun"), each charging plug is set in a parking space or a charging space, and is connected to an electric vehicle to be charged. The charging plug is used to receive the actual charging current of the electric vehicle to be charged and charge the electric vehicle to be charged based on the actual charging current.

[0086] It should be noted that each charging system and at least one connected charging terminal can be configured in a single device to form a charging device, enabling group or rotational charging of charging terminals. Multiple charging devices can form a charging station, which can be used in residential and commercial areas to provide power to electric vehicles and provide travel convenience for users.

[0087] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, the charging system may include a power distribution device, at least one power module, and a controller. The output end of the at least one power module is connected to the electrical input end of the power distribution device; and the controller is communicatively connected to the at least one power module and the power distribution device.

[0088] The electrical input end of the power distribution device may include a first electrical input end and a second electrical input end, and the at least one power supply module may include a first number of power supply modules and a second number of power supply modules. When the number of output ends of the first number of power supply modules is equal to the number of the first electrical input ends of the power distribution device, the output ends of the first number of power supply modules are connected to the first electrical input ends of the power distribution device in a one-to-one correspondence; when the number of output ends of the second number of power supply modules is equal to the number of the second electrical input ends of the power distribution device, the output ends of the second number of power supply modules are connected to the second electrical input ends of the power distribution device in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0089] A power module is configured to provide an actual charging current to the electric vehicle to be charged based on a first control signal from the controller. The at least one power module may include at least one of an energy storage module connected to an energy storage battery, an energy storage module connected to a photovoltaic cell, a general-purpose rechargeable battery, and an energy storage module in a vehicle-to-electricity interconnection mode.

[0090] A controller is configured to determine a power distribution strategy and a corresponding charging path strategy based on the required charging current of the electric vehicle to be charged and the idle power module, and to generate a first control signal corresponding to the power distribution strategy and a second control signal corresponding to the charging path strategy; the first control signal and the second control signal are respectively sent to the power module and the power distribution device corresponding to the power distribution strategy; the power distribution strategy is used to provide the actual charging current for the electric vehicle to be charged; and the charging path strategy is used to output the actual charging current to the electric vehicle to be charged. The controller may be a system control unit (CCU), a microcontroller unit (MCU), or a pre-configured controller.

[0091] The power distribution device is used to distribute the power of the charging current inputted from the electric input terminal based on the second control signal of the controller, and output the actual charging current corresponding to the electric vehicle to be charged.

[0092] Figure 3 This is a flow chart of a charging method provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the method is applied in a charging system, and the method may include:

[0093] Step 310: Get a charging request.

[0094] The controller in the charging system obtains a charging request and a request time of the charging request. The charging request may include a required charging current of the corresponding electric vehicle received by each charging terminal.

[0095] Step 320: Based on the required charging current of each charging terminal, allocate the number of power modules in the idle state to obtain the power allocation strategy corresponding to each charging terminal.

[0096] According to the principle that the earlier the charging request time is, the higher the charging priority is, it is determined whether the charging terminal is in the charging state or the waiting state.

[0097] For example, if according to the charging priority order, after a charging terminal is plugged into the charging plug, the charging system has no idle power modules to allocate, then the charging terminal will be in a waiting state; when the working state of any power module is idle, the power module will be called to charge the charging terminal.

[0098] In a specific implementation, before executing this step, if the controller in the charging system detects that the current required charging current corresponding to any charging terminal is less than the preset charging current, it releases a preset number of power modules in the power allocation strategy corresponding to the charging terminal; the preset charging current is the maximum output current of a power module; and the working status of the preset number of power modules is updated to an idle state.

[0099] According to the time sequence of charging requests and the corresponding required charging current of each charging terminal, the number of idle power modules is allocated to obtain the number of power modules corresponding to each charging terminal, so as to obtain the power allocation strategy corresponding to each charging terminal.

[0100] In some embodiments, the required charging current of a charging terminal decreases. For example, if the current required charging current is less than the preset charging current, it indicates that the electric vehicle connected to the charging terminal is almost fully charged. At this time, the power module with the smallest required charging current can be released to allocate the released power module to another charging terminal with a larger required charging current to improve the charging efficiency of the other charging terminal.

[0101] Step 330: Perform power distribution on the charging current output by the corresponding power module in the power distribution strategy corresponding to each charging terminal to obtain the actual charging current corresponding to each charging terminal.

[0102] The power distribution device in the charging system distributes power to the charging current output by the corresponding power module in the power distribution strategy corresponding to each charging terminal, and obtains the actual charging current corresponding to each charging terminal, so that the electric vehicle to be charged can charge the corresponding electric vehicle based on the actual charging current.

[0103] It can be seen that this method obtains the corresponding power distribution strategy based on the required charging current of each charging terminal, and adopts the power distribution strategy to output the charging current (or "charging power") to the corresponding charging terminal to realize group charging or rotation charging of each charging terminal, reducing the investment cost of power distribution and flexibly allocating charging power according to actual charging needs.

[0104] The preferred embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the drawings in the specification. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application. In addition, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other if there is no conflict.

[0105] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a power distribution device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4As shown, the power distribution device 400 may include: a first electrical input terminal 410 , a second electrical input terminal 420 , a first electrical output terminal 430 , a second electrical output terminal 440 , a first switch component 450 , a second switch component 460 and a third switch component 470 .

[0106] The component input terminal 451 of the first switch component 450 is connected to the first electrical input terminal 410 , and the component output terminal 452 of the first switch component 450 is connected to the first electrical output terminal 430 .

[0107] The component input terminal 461 of the second switch component 460 is connected to the second electrical input terminal 420 , and the component output terminal 462 of the second switch component 460 is connected to the second electrical output terminal 440 .

[0108] The first electrical input terminal 410 and the second electrical input terminal 420 are respectively connected to the output terminal of the power module. The first component terminal 471 of the third switch component 470 is connected to the component input terminal of the first switch component 450, and the second component terminal 472 of the third switch component 470 is connected to the component input terminal of the second switch component 460.

[0109] Specifically, when the power distribution device is in charging operation, the first switch component 450 is used to distribute power to the charging current in the component input end of the first switch component, and then output the charging current after power distribution from the component output end of the first switch component.

[0110] The second switch component is used to transmit the charging current in the component input end of the second switch component to the component output end of the second switch component.

[0111] The third switch component is used to output the first charging current in the charging current input from the first electrical input terminal, that is, a part of the charging current, in sequence through the first component terminal of the third switch component, the second component terminal of the third switch component, the component input terminal of the second switch component, the component output terminal of the second switch component and the second electrical output terminal; or, output the first charging current in the charging current input from the second electrical input terminal in sequence through the second component terminal of the third switch component, the first component terminal of the third switch component, the component input terminal of the first switch component, the component output terminal of the first switch component and the first electrical output terminal.

[0112] The second charging current in the charging current inputted from the first electrical input terminal, i.e., another part of the charging current, is outputted in sequence through the component input terminal of the first switch component, the component output terminal of the first switch component, and the first electrical output terminal; or, the second charging current in the charging current inputted from the second electrical input terminal is outputted in sequence through the component input terminal of the second switch component, the component output terminal of the second switch component, and the second electrical output terminal.

[0113] It can be seen that the third switch component in the power distribution device provided in the embodiment of the present application can distribute the charging current input into the first electrical input terminal and / or the second electrical input terminal to the first switch component and the second switch component according to business needs. After the distributed current is secondary distributed by the first switch component and the second switch component, the secondary distributed charging current is transmitted to the corresponding charging terminals connected to the first switch component and the second switch component, thereby realizing group charging or rotation charging of the electric vehicles corresponding to the corresponding charging terminals, thereby improving the charging efficiency.

[0114] It should be noted that the charging process and the discharging process of the power distribution device are inverse processes, that is, the order of the components in the power distribution device is different, and this application will not be described in detail here. The following uses the charging process of the power distribution device as an example to explain in detail the structure of each switch component in the power distribution device.

[0115] 1. A direct-connection conductive path is formed inside the third switch component:

[0116] The third switch assembly may include a first switch unit, a first assembly terminal, and a second assembly terminal. The number of the first assembly terminals may be M, and the number of the second assembly terminals may be N. Both M and N are integers not less than 1.

[0117] In some embodiments, when M is equal to N, that is, the number of first component ends of the third switch component is M and the number of second component ends is also M, the M first component ends and the M second component ends can be connected one-to-one to form M conductive circuits, each conductive circuit includes at least one first switch unit, and the first switch unit is used to turn on and off the conductive circuit.

[0118] If each conductive line includes a first switch unit, one end of the first switch unit in each conductive line is connected to the first component end corresponding to the conductive line, and the other end of the first switch unit is connected to the second component end corresponding to the conductive line.

[0119] If each conductive circuit includes multiple first switch units, one end of the multiple first switch units in each conductive circuit connected in series is connected to the first component end corresponding to the conductive circuit, and the other end of the multiple first switch units in series is connected to the second component end corresponding to the conductive circuit.

[0120] like Figure 5A As shown, when M=N=3, and the three conductive paths formed each include two first switch units, one end of the first switch unit A in the conductive path X is connected to the first component end connection x1 corresponding to the conductive path X, and one end of the first switch unit B is connected to the first component end connection x2 corresponding to the conductive path X; the other end of the first switch unit A is connected to the other end of the first switch unit B, that is, the first switch unit A and the first switch unit B are connected in series.

[0121] like Figure 5B As shown, when M=N=3, and each of the three conductive paths formed includes a first switch unit, one end of the first switch unit A in the conductive path X is connected to the first component end connection x1 corresponding to the conductive path X, and the other end of the first switch unit A is connected to the first component end connection x2 corresponding to the conductive path X.

[0122] It should be noted that when each conductive circuit includes multiple first switch units, the number of first switch units included in different conductive circuits of the above M conductive circuits can be the same or different, and this application does not limit this.

[0123] It can be seen that in the third switch assembly of the above embodiment, a direct-connection conductive line can be formed through the first switch unit to achieve flexible distribution of the charging current input to the first electrical input terminal and / or the second electrical input terminal.

[0124] In some embodiments, when M and N are both integers greater than 1, the third switch assembly may include m subassemblies. The external structure of each subassembly is the same, such as including p first subassembly terminals and q second subassembly terminals. The internal structure of each subassembly may be the same or different; for example, the internal structure of a subassembly may be as follows: Figure 5A As shown, the internal structure of another subcomponent can be as follows Figure 5B shown.

[0125] Taking the example of the third switch component including m*p first sub-component terminals and m*q second sub-component terminals, for each sub-component, the p first sub-component terminals of the sub-component are connected one-to-one with the p unconnected first component terminals in the third switch component; the q second sub-component terminals of the sub-component are connected one-to-one with the q unconnected second component terminals in the third switch component.

[0126] like Figure 5C As shown, the third switch assembly includes three subassemblies, each of which includes three first subassembly terminals, three second subassembly terminals and three first switch units;

[0127] The three first subassembly ends in the first subassembly and the three first assembly ends in the third switch assembly are respectively connected one-to-one through a first switch unit; the three second subassembly ends in the first subassembly and the three second assembly ends in the third switch assembly are respectively connected one-to-one through a first switch unit.

[0128] The three first subassembly ends in the second subassembly and the three first assembly ends in the third switch assembly other than those connected to the first subassembly are respectively connected one-to-one through a first switch unit; the three second subassembly ends in the first subassembly and the three second assembly ends in the third switch assembly other than those connected to the first subassembly are respectively connected one-to-one through a first switch unit.

[0129] The three first subassembly ends in the third subassembly and the three first assembly ends in the third switch assembly except those connected to the first subassembly and the second subassembly are respectively connected one-to-one through a first switch unit; the three second subassembly ends in the first subassembly and the three second assembly ends in the third switch assembly except those connected to the first subassembly and the second subassembly are respectively connected one-to-one through a first switch unit.

[0130] It is understandable that the external structure of each sub-component may be different according to business design requirements, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this; the internal structure of each sub-component may be the same as the internal structure of the third switch component.

[0131] It can be seen from the above embodiments that the multiple first component terminals and the multiple second component terminals in the third switch component can form multiple direct-connection conductive paths through multiple first switch units, thereby realizing flexible distribution of the charging current input from the first electrical input terminal and / or the second electrical input terminal based on the same (or different) component input terminals of the first switch component or the second switch component through at least one conductive path.

[0132] Furthermore, the connection mode of the third switch component in the internal direct connection form with the first switch component and the second switch component in the power distribution device may include:

[0133] When the number of component input terminals of the first switch component and the number of first component terminals of the third switch component are both 1, and the number of component input terminals of the second switch component and the number of second component terminals of the third switch component are both 1, one component input terminal of the first switch component is connected to one first component terminal of the third switch component, and one component input terminal of the second switch component is connected to one second component terminal of the third switch component.

[0134] In some embodiments, when the number of component input terminals of the first switch component and the number of first component terminals of the third switch component are both multiple, the number of component input terminals of the second switch component and the number of second component terminals of the third switch component can both be at least one, that is, the number of component input terminals of the second switch component and the number of second component terminals of the third switch component are not limited.

[0135] (1) If the number of component input terminals of the first switch component is equal to the number of first component terminals of the third switch component, the first component terminals of the third switch component are connected to the component input terminals of the first switch component in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0136] In the case where the number of component input terminals of the second switch component and the number of second component terminals of the third switch component are both multiple, the number of component input terminals of the first switch component and the number of first component terminals of the third switch component can both be at least one, that is, the number of component input terminals of the first switch component and the number of first component terminals of the third switch component are not limited.

[0137] (2) If the number of component input terminals of the second switch component is equal to the number of second component terminals of the third switch component, the second component terminals of the third switch component are connected to the component input terminals of the second switch component in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0138] In one example, combining Figure 5B , a circuit structure of the power distribution device can be as follows Figure 5D As shown, the number of component output terminals of the first switch component and the number of component output terminals of the second switch component are both 3, the number of component input terminals of the first switch component and the number of component input terminals of the second switch component are both 3, and the number of first switch components and the number of second component terminals of the third switch component are both 3. At this time, the three first component terminals are connected one-to-one with the three component input terminals of the first switch component; the three second component terminals are connected one-to-one with the three component input terminals of the second switch component.

[0139] In some embodiments, when the number of component input terminals of the first switch component and the number of first component terminals of the third switch component are both multiple, the number of component input terminals of the second switch component and the number of second component terminals of the third switch component can both be at least one, that is, the number of component input terminals of the second switch component and the number of second component terminals of the third switch component are not limited.

[0140] (1) If the number of component input terminals of the first switch component is less than the number of first component terminals of the third switch component, at least one component input terminal of the first switch component can be connected to multiple first component terminals to distribute the charging current input to the component input terminal of each first switch component.

[0141] In the case where the number of component input terminals of the second switch component and the number of second component terminals of the third switch component are both multiple, the number of component input terminals of the first switch component and the number of first component terminals of the third switch component can both be at least one, that is, the number of component input terminals of the first switch component and the number of first component terminals of the third switch component are not limited.

[0142] (2) If the number of component input terminals of the second switch assembly is less than the number of second component terminals of the third switch assembly, at least one component input terminal of the second switch assembly can be connected with a plurality of second component terminals to realize the distribution of the charging current input by each component input terminal of the first switch assembly.

[0143] In one example, in combination with Figure 5C , a circuit structure of the power distribution device can be as shown in Figure 5E , when the number of component input terminals of the first switch assembly and the number of component input terminals of the second switch assembly are both 3, and the number of first switch assemblies and the number of second component terminals of the third switch assembly are both 9 (i.e. the number of first component terminals and the number of second component terminals of each sub-assembly in the 3 sub-assemblies are both 3), each of the 3 first component terminals of each sub-assembly in the third switch assembly is connected with the 3 component input terminals of the first switch assembly one by one, each of the 3 second component terminals of each sub-assembly is connected with 1 different component input terminal of the second switch assembly, and the component input terminals of the second switch assembly connected with the 3 second component terminals of each sub-assembly are different. For example, the first component terminals x1, y1, z1 in the first sub-assembly are connected with the component input terminal 1, the component input terminal 2 and the component input terminal 3 of the first switch assembly one by one, and the second component terminals x2, y2, z2 in the first sub-assembly are connected with the component input terminal 1 of the second switch assembly.

[0144] The first component terminals x1, y1, z1 in the second sub-assembly are connected with the component input terminal 1, the component input terminal 2 and the component input terminal 3 of the first switch assembly one by one, and the second component terminals x2, y2, z2 in the second sub-assembly are connected with the component input terminal 2 of the second switch assembly.

[0145] The first component terminals x1, y1, z1 in the third sub-assembly are connected with the component input terminal 1, the component input terminal 2 and the component input terminal 3 of the first switch assembly one by one, and the second component terminals x2, y2, z2 in the third sub-assembly are connected with the component input terminal 3 of the second switch assembly.

[0146] In one example, in combination with Figure 5C , a circuit structure of the power distribution device can be as shown in Figure 5FAs shown, the number of component input terminals of the first switch assembly and the number of component input terminals of the second switch assembly are both 3. When the number of first component terminals and the number of second component terminals of the third switch assembly are both 6, each component input terminal of the first switch assembly is connected to two first component terminals of the third switch assembly, and each component input terminal of the first switch assembly is connected to two different first component terminals. For example, component input terminal 1 of the first switch assembly is connected to first component terminal b1 and first component terminal c1 of the third switch assembly; component input terminal 2 of the first switch assembly is connected to first component terminal d1 and first component terminal e1 of the third switch assembly; and component input terminal 3 of the first switch assembly is connected to first component terminal a1 and first component terminal f1 of the third switch assembly.

[0147] Each component input terminal of the second switch assembly is connected to two second component terminals of the third switch assembly, and each component input terminal of the second switch assembly is connected to two different second component terminals. For example, component input terminal 1 of the second switch assembly is connected to second component terminal a2 and second component terminal b2 of the third switch assembly; component input terminal 2 of the second switch assembly is connected to second component terminal c2 and second component terminal d2 of the third switch assembly; and component input terminal 3 of the second switch assembly is connected to second component terminal e2 and second component terminal f2 of the third switch assembly.

[0148] It can be seen from the above embodiments that, based on at least one directly connected conductive line formed inside the third switch component, the first component end and the second component end of the third switch component can be connected to the component input ends of the first switch component and the second switch component respectively according to the charging requirements, thereby forming a charging path that meets the charging requirements and realizing flexible distribution of the charging current input to the first electrical input end and / or the second electrical input end.

[0149] 2. A non-directly connected conductive path is formed inside the third switch component:

[0150] The third switch assembly may include a first switch unit and a second switch unit. The number of first component terminals of the third switch assembly may be M, and the number of second component terminals may be N. Wherein, M and N are both integers not less than 1.

[0151] In some embodiments, one of the M first component terminals of the third switch component can be connected to at least two second component terminals through the first switch unit and the second switch unit to form at least two conductive lines; N is an integer not less than 2.

[0152] At least two of the M first component terminals of the third switch component can be connected to one second component terminal through the first switch unit and the second switch unit to form at least two conducting lines.

[0153] (1) If each conductive circuit includes one first switch unit, then one end of the first switch unit in each conductive circuit is connected to the first component end corresponding to the conductive circuit, and the other end of the first switch unit is connected to the second component end corresponding to the conductive circuit. In this case, for each second switch unit, one end of the second switch unit is connected to the first component end corresponding to one conductive circuit; and the other end of the second switch unit is connected to the first component end corresponding to another conductive circuit. It is understood that the other end of the second switch unit can also be connected to the second component end corresponding to another conductive circuit.

[0154] In one example, combining Figure 5B , a circuit structure of the third switch component can be as follows Figure 5G As shown, the third switch component includes three conducting lines formed by three first component terminals and three second component terminals, three first switch units and two second switch units.

[0155] The conducting line X includes a first switch unit A; the conducting line Y includes a first switch unit B; the conducting line Z includes a first switch unit C;

[0156] One end of the second switch unit D is connected to the first component terminal connection x1 corresponding to the conductive line X, that is, connected to one end of the first switch unit A; the other end of the second switch unit D is connected to the first component terminal connection y1 corresponding to the conductive line Y.

[0157] One end of the second switch unit E is connected to the first component end connection y1 corresponding to the conductive line Y, that is, connected to one end of the first switch unit B; the other end of the second switch unit E is connected to the first component end connection z1 corresponding to the conductive line Z, that is, connected to one end of the first switch unit C.

[0158] (2) If each conductive line includes multiple first switch units, one end of the multiple first switch units in each conductive line connected in series is connected to the first component end corresponding to the conductive line, and the other end of the multiple first switch units in series is connected to the second component end corresponding to the conductive line.

[0159] At this time, for each second switch unit, one end of the second switch unit is connected to the first component end corresponding to one conductive path, and the other end of the second switch unit is connected to the first component end corresponding to another conductive path. Alternatively, for each second switch unit, one end of the second switch unit can be connected to one end of any first switch unit in a conductive path that is not connected to the first component end, and the other end of the second switch unit can be connected to one end of any first switch unit in another conductive path that is not connected to the first component end.

[0160] In one example, combining Figure 5A , a circuit structure of the third switch component can be as follows Figure 5H As shown, the third switch assembly includes 3 conducting lines, 6 first switch units, 2 second switch units, 3 first assembly ends and 3 second assembly ends. Each conducting line includes 2 first switch units.

[0161] One end of the second switch unit D is connected to one end of the first switch unit A2 in the conducting line X which is not connected to the first assembly end x1, i.e. to the other end of the first switch unit Al; the other end of the second switch unit D is connected to one end of the first switch unit B2 in the conducting line Y which is not connected to the first assembly end y1, i.e. to the other end of the first switch unit Bl.

[0162] One end of the second switch unit E is connected to one end of the first switch unit B2 in the conducting line Y which is not connected to the first assembly end y1, i.e. to one end of the first switch unit Bl; the other end of the second switch unit E is connected to one end of the first switch unit C2 in the conducting line Z which is not connected to the first assembly end z1, i.e. to one end of the first switch unit Cl.

[0163] Further, the connection mode of the third switch assembly in the power distribution device in the form of non-direct connection with the first switch assembly and the second switch assembly can be connected in the connection mode of Figure 5D-5F , which will not be described herein.

[0164] As can be seen, in the third switch assembly of the above embodiments, the conducting line in the form of non-direct connection can be formed by the first switch unit and the second switch unit, and the flexible distribution of the charging current input from the first electric input end and / or the second electric input end can be realized.

[0165] In some embodiments, one first electric input end can be connected to one assembly input end of the first switch assembly, or can be connected to multiple assembly input ends of the first switch assembly. Correspondingly, one second electric input end can be connected to one assembly input end of the second switch assembly, or can be connected to multiple assembly input ends of the second switch assembly. That is, the number of the first electric input ends can be equal to or not equal to the number of the assembly input ends of the first switch assembly, and correspondingly, the number of the second electric input ends can be equal to or not equal to the number of the assembly input ends of the second switch assembly.

[0166] In some specific embodiments, when the number of the first electric input ends is equal to the number of the assembly input ends of the first switch assembly, the first electric input ends can be connected to the assembly input ends of the first switch assembly one by one. Correspondingly, when the number of the second electric input ends is equal to the number of the assembly input ends of the second switch assembly, the second electric input ends can be connected to the assembly input ends of the second switch assembly one by one. For example, Figure 5D-5F .

[0167] For the first switch assembly and the second switch assembly:

[0168] The first switch assembly can include at least one assembly output end, and the second switch assembly can include at least one assembly output end. When the first switch assembly and the second switch assembly each include one assembly output end, the first switch assembly side and the second switch assembly side can implement wheel charging for multiple electric vehicles; when the first switch assembly and the second switch assembly each include multiple assembly output ends, the first switch assembly side and the second switch assembly side can implement group charging and / or wheel charging for multiple electric vehicles.
