[0037] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer and more understandable, the technical principles and practical applications of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.
[0038] System Embodiment:
[0039] The full-time domain battery monitoring device involved in the present invention is as Figure 1 shown, including a power battery, a vehicle DC / DC, a monitoring DC / DC, a BMS system, an in-vehicle monitoring terminal, a background monitoring platform, an automatic push system, a vehicle controller and other low-voltage systems. The power battery is the high-voltage power source of a new energy vehicle, providing an input power source for the vehicle DC / DC and the monitoring DC / DC; the vehicle DC / DC supplies power to the BMS system, the in-vehicle monitoring terminal, the vehicle controller and other low-voltage systems during driving; the monitoring DC / DC supplies power to the BMS system and the in-vehicle monitoring terminal during parking and charging; the BMS system is a battery management system, realizing the monitoring, safety assessment, fault diagnosis and warning of battery information, and wirelessly transmitting the above information to the in-vehicle monitoring terminal; the in-vehicle monitoring terminal collects battery information and warning information and transmits them to the background monitoring platform; the background monitoring platform displays vehicle battery data and wirelessly transmits fault warning information to the automatic push system; the automatic push system automatically sends fault information to the mobile phone APP of after-sales personnel to ensure that professional after-sales personnel can discover faults in the first time and handle them in a timely manner.
[0040] The power battery is respectively connected to the vehicle DC / DC and the monitoring DC / DC; the vehicle DC / DC is powered to connect the vehicle low-voltage system, the BMS system and the vehicle-mounted monitoring terminal; the monitoring DC / DC is powered to connect the BMS system and the vehicle-mounted monitoring terminal; the BMS system also controls and connects the vehicle DC / DC and the monitoring DC / DC; the charging module for charging the power battery is connected to the monitoring DC / DC.
[0041] The present invention mainly divides new energy vehicles into three modes according to the actual working conditions: driving state, charging state and parking state; and realizes full-time domain battery monitoring through the control method and monitoring of the conversion between the three modes. As Figure 2 shown, the BMS system divides the vehicle working conditions into three modes by detecting the vehicle ON-fire signal and the plug-in charging signal: as long as the plug-in charging signal is detected, it is considered to be in the charging state regardless of the vehicle ON-fire signal; if the plug-in charging signal is not detected and the vehicle ON-fire signal is detected, it is considered to enter the driving state; if neither the plug-in charging signal nor the vehicle ON-fire signal is detected, it is considered to enter the parking state.
[0042] In the driving state, the power battery provides low-voltage power to the BMS system, the vehicle-mounted terminal system, the vehicle controller and other low-voltage systems through the vehicle DC / DC, and the monitoring DC / DC does not work; in the charging state, the charging module provides low-voltage power to the BMS system and the vehicle-mounted terminal system through the monitoring DC / DC, does not provide low-voltage power to the vehicle controller and other low-voltage systems, and the vehicle DC / DC does not work; in the parking state, the power battery provides low-voltage power to the BMS system and the vehicle-mounted terminal system through the monitoring DC / DC, does not provide low-voltage power to the vehicle controller and other low-voltage systems, and the vehicle DC / DC does not work. Additionally, when switching from the driving state to the parking state, after the vehicle DC / DC is powered off, the BMS system is powered off with a 5S delay. Within 5S, the monitoring DC / DC is activated to work to achieve seamless state switching. In the above three states, the BMS system is responsible for collecting battery information and evaluating the safety state, and transmits it to the vehicle-mounted monitoring terminal in real time. When it detects that the battery has a serious fault, the BMS system transmits the fault information to the monitoring platform through the vehicle-mounted terminal, and the monitoring platform automatically pushes the fault information to the after-sales service personnel, and the after-sales service personnel go to the accident site for professional maintenance in a timely manner.
[0043] From the driving state to the parking state and then back to the driving state:
[0044] As Figure 3As shown, when the vehicle changes from the driving state to the parking state and the vehicle is powered on, the BMS system detects the vehicle ON-fire signal but does not detect the plug-in charging signal. At this time, the vehicle enters the driving state. The vehicle DC / DC starts to work, providing low-voltage power to the BMS system, in-vehicle terminal system, vehicle controller, and other low-voltage systems. The BMS system is responsible for battery information collection and safety status assessment, and transmits it to the in-vehicle monitoring terminal in real time. When a serious battery fault is detected, the BMS system prompts the vehicle to stop through the instrument, and at the same time transmits the fault information to the monitoring platform through the in-vehicle terminal. The monitoring platform automatically pushes the fault information to the after-sales service personnel, and the after-sales service personnel go to the accident site for professional repair in a timely manner. After the vehicle's driving ends, the vehicle ON-fire is turned off, and the vehicle enters the parking state. The vehicle DC / DC is powered off, stopping to provide low-voltage power to the in-vehicle terminal system, vehicle controller, and other low-voltage systems. At this time, the BMS system is powered off with a 5S delay. Within 5S, the monitoring DC / DC is activated to work, achieving a seamless state switch. The monitoring DC / DC provides low-voltage power to the BMS system and in-vehicle terminal system, and does not provide low-voltage power to the vehicle controller and other low-voltage systems. When the vehicle is in the parking state, the BMS system is responsible for battery information collection and safety status assessment, and transmits it to the in-vehicle monitoring terminal in real time. When a serious battery fault is detected, the BMS system transmits the fault information to the monitoring platform through the in-vehicle terminal. The monitoring platform automatically pushes the fault information to the after-sales service personnel, and the after-sales service personnel go to the accident site for professional repair in a timely manner.
[0045] From the charging state to the parking state and then back to the charging state:
[0046] Such as Figure 4As shown, the vehicle enters the parked state from the charging state. The vehicle is charging with the charging gun plugged in. The charger activates the monitoring of the DC / DC operation. The BMS system detects the charging gun plugged-in signal, and the vehicle's DC / DC does not work. At the same time, the monitoring DC / DC provides low-voltage power to the BMS system and the vehicle-mounted terminal system, and does not provide low-voltage power to the vehicle controller and other low-voltage systems. During the charging process, the BMS system is responsible for collecting battery information and evaluating the safety status, and transmits it to the vehicle-mounted monitoring terminal in real time. When a serious battery fault is detected, the BMS system controls the charger to stop charging, and at the same time transmits the fault information to the monitoring platform through the vehicle-mounted terminal. The monitoring platform automatically pushes the fault information to the after-sales service personnel, and the after-sales service personnel go to the accident site for professional repair in a timely manner. After normal charging is completed, the BMS system detects the disappearance of the charging gun signal and does not detect the vehicle ON signal at the same time, then the vehicle enters the parked state. When the vehicle is in the parked state, the monitoring DC / DC works normally, and the vehicle's DC / DC does not work. The monitoring DC / DC provides low-voltage power to the BMS system and the vehicle-mounted terminal system, and does not provide low-voltage power to the vehicle controller and other low-voltage systems. The BMS system is responsible for collecting battery information and evaluating the safety status, and transmits it to the vehicle-mounted monitoring terminal in real time. When a serious battery fault is detected, the BMS system transmits the fault information to the monitoring platform through the vehicle-mounted terminal. The monitoring platform automatically pushes the fault information to the after-sales service personnel, and the after-sales service personnel go to the accident site for professional repair in a timely manner.
