It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, and not all of the structures.

When the control unit 10 controls the first optocoupler U1 and the third optocoupler U3 to be turned on, and the second optocoupler U2, the fourth optocoupler U4, and the fifth optocoupler U5 to be turned off and there is no output at the reference voltage terminal, the total voltage V of the energy storage converter 30 can be collected. PACK The voltage values ​​for analog channels AIN3-AIN2 are as follows: The voltage values ​​of analog channels AIN0-AIN1 are: The total voltage of the energy storage converter 30 can be calculated from either of the two voltage equations above, thereby realizing the voltage acquisition of the battery module 20 and the energy storage converter 30.

[0036] Furthermore, when the control unit 10 controls both the first optocoupler U1 and the fifth optocoupler U5 to be turned on, and the second optocoupler U2, the third optocoupler U3, and the fourth optocoupler U4 are all turned off and there is no output at the reference voltage terminal, When the control unit 10 controls the fourth optocoupler U4 and the fifth optocoupler U5 to be turned on, and the first optocoupler U1, the second optocoupler U2, and the third optocoupler U3 are all turned off and there is no output at the reference voltage terminal.

Figure 1 As shown, the second control circuit also includes resistors R8 and R9, the first control circuit also includes resistor R10, and the third control circuit also includes resistor R11.

[0039] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of an isolation detection circuit provided in an embodiment of the present invention, for reference. Figure 2 Optionally, the above-mentioned isolation detection circuit also includes a first contactor RLY1 and a second contactor RLY2. The positive terminal of the battery module 20 is electrically connected to the positive terminal of the energy storage converter 30 through the first contactor RLY1, and the negative terminal of the battery module 20 is electrically connected to the negative terminal of the energy storage converter 30 through the second contactor RLY2. The control unit 10 is specifically used to detect whether the first contactor RLY1 is stuck and whether the second contactor RLY2 is stuck.

[0040] The power conversion system (PCS) 30 provides power to the battery module 20. When the battery module 20's charge is too low, the control unit 10 can close both the first contactor RLY1 and the second contactor RLY2, thereby supplying power to the battery module 20 through the PCS, i.e., the power conversion system 30.

[0041] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of another isolation detection circuit provided in an embodiment of the present invention, for reference. Figure 3 Optionally, the above-mentioned isolation detection circuit also includes a power isolation element U6, and the power control interface of the control unit 10 is electrically connected to the power isolation element U6.

[0042] Specifically, the power control interface of control unit 10 can output a power control signal POWER_EN. The power supply adopts a DC / DC isolated power supply, namely the power isolation element U6, which can output two voltages, VDD_ISO (GND_ISO ground signal) and VCC (GND ground signal), to supply the two ends of the isolation side of the circuit to achieve electrical isolation. The power control signal POWER_EN output by control unit 10 can realize the start and stop control of the entire circuit. When the power control signal POWER_EN is high, the power isolation element U6 works normally and the isolation detection circuit is powered on; when the power control signal POWER_EN is low, the power isolation element U6 stops operating (voltage VCC can be output normally), and the isolation detection circuit is de-energized, thereby realizing the start and stop control of the circuit. When a fault occurs or the circuit needs to be stopped, it can be stopped in real time, ensuring the safety of the circuit.

[0043] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of another isolation detection circuit provided in an embodiment of the present invention, for reference. Figure 4 Optionally, the control unit 10 includes a controller 11 and a signal acquisition element U7. The controller 11 is electrically connected to the signal acquisition element U7. The first voltage output terminal of the power isolation element U6 is electrically connected to the first voltage input terminal of the signal acquisition element U7. The second voltage output terminal of the power isolation element U6 is electrically connected to the second voltage input terminal of the signal acquisition element U7. The signal acquisition element is used to acquire voltage signals and convert the voltage signals into communication signals.

[0044] In this design, controller 11 can be an MCU, and its power control interface serves as the power control interface for control unit 10. The first signal terminal, second signal terminal, and reference voltage terminal of signal acquisition element U7 serve as the first signal terminal, second signal terminal, and reference voltage terminal of control unit 10, respectively. The first inverter control terminal, second inverter control terminal, first battery module control terminal, and second battery module control terminal of controller 11 serve as the first inverter control terminal, second inverter control terminal, first battery module control terminal, and second battery module control terminal of control unit 10, respectively. The first voltage output terminal of power isolation element U6 outputs voltage VDD_ISO, which is the same as the first voltage input terminal of signal acquisition element U7. The second voltage output terminal of power isolation element U6 outputs ground signal GND_ISO, which is the same as the second voltage input terminal of signal acquisition element U7. Signal acquisition element U7 can acquire and convert signals, such as converting the acquired voltage signal into an SPI signal. (Reference) Figure 1 , 3 and Figure 4The voltage VCC can continuously supply power to each control circuit and control unit 10. The voltage VDD_ISO output by the power isolation element U6 can supply power to the signal acquisition element U7 and realize electrical isolation between the power supply and other devices in the circuit.

[0045] Optionally, the control unit 10 also includes a communication isolation element U8. The controller 11 and the signal acquisition element U7 are electrically connected through the communication isolation element U8. The communication isolation element U8 is used to convert the output voltage signal of the signal acquisition element U7 into a communication signal and transmit the communication signal to the controller 11. It is also used to transmit the control signal of the controller 11 to the signal acquisition element U7.

[0046] For details, please refer to Figure 4 The signal acquisition element U7 can be an ADC conversion chip such as ADS1147IPW, and the communication isolation element U8 can be an isolation chip such as Si8641ED. The communication isolation element U8 can realize signal isolation and communication, and achieve electrical isolation, isolating the battery module 20 and energy storage converter 30 from the controller 11. Since the output voltage of the battery module 20 is relatively high, such as several kilovolts, while the voltage of the controller 11 is relatively low, such as several volts, isolation can prevent signal interference and ensure signal reliability and anti-interference.

[0047] The isolation detection circuit provided in this embodiment allows the control unit to control the positive and negative terminals of the battery module, the ground terminal, and the positive and negative terminals of the PCS device to access the circuit in a time-division manner through various control circuits. This enables the acquisition, conversion, and communication of voltages from each channel, as well as voltage acquisition, insulation detection, and adhesion detection. Furthermore, the isolation detection circuit in this embodiment is modular, with a complete overall circuit function design, high timeliness, low cost, and is easy to mass-produce. By using power isolation components and signal acquisition components, electrical and signal isolation of the entire circuit can be achieved, protecting the safety of internal and external circuits and ensuring circuit reliability and anti-interference. The signal acquisition components have multiple analog signal acquisition channels and an SPI communication port. The analog signal acquisition channels are paired and differentially calculated to acquire voltage signals. After conversion by an internal ADC, the data information is transmitted to the controller via the SPI communication port, ensuring the accuracy of voltage acquisition and data integrity.
