Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless power transmission, and more particularly to an S / CLC-S type wireless charging system and method with constant current and constant voltage self-monitoring switching. Background Art

[0002] With the development of modern power electronics, wireless charging, as a contactless energy transfer technology, has attracted widespread attention in fields such as electric vehicles, drones, medical devices, and portable power electronics due to its safety and convenience. Lithium-ion batteries, as rechargeable green energy storage components, have naturally become a key research topic for wireless charging due to their increasing demand in power facilities such as mobile devices and electric vehicles.

[0003] Lithium-ion battery charging methods can generally be categorized into constant current (CC) and constant voltage (CV) based on their charging characteristics. During the CC process, the current is maintained at a high level to quickly top up the battery. The battery's charge voltage is low in the initial stages, but gradually increases as the charging process progresses. This can significantly impact the battery's internal electrodes in the later stages of charging, reducing battery life. The CV process provides a constant charge voltage for the lithium-ion battery. The charge current is high in the initial stages, but gradually decreases as the charging process progresses, resulting in a very low and slowly changing charge current in the later stages. To extend the lifespan of lithium-ion batteries while ensuring full battery replenishment, a combination of constant current and constant voltage charging is typically used. During the initial charging phase, the battery is typically charged using the manufacturer's specified CC mode. During this process, the battery charge voltage rises rapidly. Once the charge voltage reaches the maximum voltage allowed by the lithium-ion battery, the battery switches to CV mode, where the charge current rapidly decreases until it reaches approximately one-tenth of the CC mode current, concluding the charging process. Throughout the charging process, the battery's equivalent resistance gradually increases, resulting in significant fluctuations. Designing a WPT system that can maintain both CC and CV charging capabilities under varying load conditions presents a significant challenge.

[0004] In the past few years, some scholars have proposed control methods for implementing CC and CV charging modes in WPT systems, mainly including phase shifting modulation (PSW) and frequency conversion control (FCC). PSW technology controls the phase angle of the inverter to ensure that the charging voltage and current remain constant under load changes. However, when there are large load changes, this technology cannot meet the requirements of zero voltage switching (ZVS) operation, and the inverter generates large conduction losses. FCC technology may affect system stability due to the frequency division phenomenon and cannot achieve zero phase angle operation (ZPA), resulting in large reactive power losses. Both have a significant impact on charging efficiency. Although excellent CC and CV output characteristics can be achieved, it increases system complexity. Summary of the Invention

[0048] In the power supply circuit, a DC power supply is connected in parallel with a step-down drive circuit to generate a low-voltage drive voltage to drive a hysteresis comparator. The DC power supply is connected in parallel with a first end of an inverter circuit, and a second end of the inverter circuit is connected to a resonant coupling circuit as an AC output of the power supply circuit. In this embodiment, the inverter circuit is a high-frequency full-bridge inverter circuit including four switching tubes S1, S2, S3, and S4. The step-down drive circuit adopts a DC / DC circuit.

[0049] The resonant coupling circuit includes two output modes: constant current (CC) and constant voltage (CV). In CC mode, the first signal relay KV1 and the second signal relay KV2 are disconnected, and the first compensation inductor L1, the first compensation capacitor C1, the second compensation capacitor C2 and the transmitting coil L T Series connection, receiving coil L R The first signal relay KV1 and the second signal relay KV2 are connected in series with the third compensation capacitor C3 to form a series-series (SS) compensation topology to provide a constant charging current for the battery charging circuit.

R Connected in series with the third compensation capacitor C3 to form a CLC-series (CLC-S) topology, providing a constant charging voltage for the battery charging circuit;

[0050] In order to reduce reactive power and improve charging efficiency, the system needs to achieve zero phase angle (ZPA) operation. Figure 1 The system equivalent circuit shown in the figure is simplified, and the simplified equivalent circuit is as follows Figure 2 As shown in (a) and (b), I1-I5 represent the current flowing through each mesh respectively. According to Kirchhoff's law, the following expression can be obtained:

[0051]

[0052] Among them, V i is the system's AC input voltage, CC Mode and CV Mode Respectively Figure 2 The CC mode and CV mode shown in (a) and (b) are X T =X L1 +X C1 +X C2 +X LT +R1, X R =X LR +X C3 +R+R2,X VCL =X C1 +X L2 , X LCL =X L2 +X C2 +X LT , X L1 、X L2 、X C1 、X C2 、X C3 Represents the equivalent impedance of each component, X M Represents the equivalent impedance of the mutual inductance between the coils, R1 is the transmitting coil L T Internal resistance, R2 is the receiving coil L R Internal resistance, R is the equivalent resistance of the simplified battery charging circuit. I1-I5 represent Figure 2 The currents flowing through each circuit mesh in (a) and (b) can be solved as follows:

[0053]

[0054] For ease of analysis, the transconductance gain G is defined as the output current I O With input voltage U I According to formula (2), the transconductance gain G(ω CC ) and the voltage gain E(ω in CV mode CV ) can be expressed as:

[0055]

[0056] To realize CC mode and CV mode charging, G(ω CC ) and E(ω CV ) should be independent of R. Combining formula (3), it is not difficult to find that for CC mode, when X T = 0, G(ω CC ) has nothing to do with R; for CV mode, when (X VCL X LCL -X L2 2 )(X C3 +X LR )-X VCL X M 2 = 0, E(ω CV ) is independent of R. To reduce reactive input and improve system efficiency, the system needs to implement ZPA operation. The input impedance of the system in CC mode and CV mode can be expressed as follows:

[0057]

[0058] To achieve ZPA operation, the input resistance of the system should be purely resistive. T = 0, Z CC Purely resistive, in CV mode, X LCL = 0, ZCV is purely resistive. Therefore, to achieve ZPA in CC mode and CV mode, the resonance conditions must be met as follows:

[0059]

[0060] Where, ω represents the system operating angular frequency;

[0061] Optionally, the parameter configuration scheme of the present invention is as follows:

[0062] Substituting formula (5) into formula (2) can simplify the expression of each grid current to the following formula:

[0063]

[0064] In practical applications, the internal resistance of the coil is too small to be considered. The voltage across C2 can be expressed as:

[0065]

[0066] From the above formula, we can see that in CC mode, the voltage across C2 will gradually increase as the equivalent resistance of the battery charging circuit increases. To switch from CC mode to CV mode by changing the voltage across C2, when the equivalent resistance of the battery charging circuit reaches the switching resistance R switch When , the effective value of the voltage across C2 is equal in CC mode and CV mode, that is:

[0067]

[0068] Can be obtained:

[0069]

[0070] When the above equation is true, the effective value of the voltage across the battery charging circuit is always equal in both modes, as shown in the following equation:

[0071]

[0072] Substituting formula (5) into formula (7), the solutions of each element of the resonant network can be obtained as follows:

[0073]

[0074] Optionally, the trigger circuit is connected in parallel across the second compensation capacitor C2, and the voltage change of the second compensation capacitor C2 is the trigger condition of the trigger circuit; the AC / DC converter circuit and the first filter capacitor C f The first voltage divider resistor R is connected in parallel with the second compensation capacitor C2 to convert the AC power at both ends of C2 into DC power and input it into the hysteresis circuit; Div1 With the second voltage divider resistor R Div2 connected in series, the whole and the first compensation capacitor C f connected in parallel, used to divide the larger DC voltage into a lower voltage and input it into the hysteresis circuit; the first hysteresis circuit resistor R hc1 , the second hysteresis circuit resistor R hc2 The hysteresis circuit is composed of a hysteresis comparator and the whole circuit is connected with R Div2 Connect in parallel to determine R Div2 Whether the voltage across the terminals exceeds the reference voltage V REF , thereby controlling the output level state switching; the output voltage V switch Connected to the first signal relay KV1 and the second signal relay KV2, used as a trigger signal for the signal relay;

[0075] Substituting the values ​​of L2 and C2 into formula (3) yields the switching voltage U across C2: do for:

[0076]

[0077] Switching voltage U do This is the trigger voltage of the trigger circuit.

[0078] After the AC / DC converter circuit and resistor voltage division, the driving voltage U of the hysteresis circuit is Drive It can be calculated by the following formula:

[0079]

[0080] That is, when R Div2 The voltage across the two ends reaches U Drive When the hysteresis circuit is turned on, the hysteresis circuit reference value V REF Set to U Drive The values ​​are equal, V switch The output is high level, triggering signal relays KV1 and KV2 to close, realizing topology switching.

[0081] Example 2:

[0082] Based on the same inventive concept, Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a constant current and constant voltage self-monitoring switching S / CLC-S type wireless charging method, comprising the following steps:

[0083] S1. Initialize the system. After the high-frequency full-bridge inverter circuit receives the PWM signal, the system enters the working state. At this time, the first signal relay KV1 and the second signal relay KV2 are in the disconnected state. The system forms an SS topology and is in CC mode.

[0084] S2. As the CC charging process continues, the charging current of the battery charging circuit remains unchanged, while the equivalent resistance of the battery charging circuit gradually increases, and the charging voltage of the battery charging circuit increases accordingly. Due to circuit characteristics, the voltage across the second compensation capacitor C2 also increases accordingly;

[0085] S3: When the charging voltage of the battery charging circuit reaches the maximum charging voltage U B When the voltage across C2 rises to the switching voltage U do , U do After rectification and voltage division, R Div2 The hysteresis circuit driving voltage formed by the voltage at both ends is also boosted to the hysteresis circuit reference value V REF , triggering the hysteresis circuit to switch the output state and output a high level V switch , the first signal relay KV1 and the second signal relay KV2 are activated; the conduction of KV1 and KV2 short-circuits the first compensation inductor L1 and connects the second compensation inductor L2 to the circuit. At this time, the system topology switches to CLC-S and is in CV mode;

[0086] S4: As the equivalent resistance of the battery charging circuit continues to increase, the charging voltage is maintained at UB The charging current of the battery charging circuit continues to decrease, the equivalent resistance of the battery charging circuit increases, the voltage across C2 remains unchanged, and the hysteresis circuit continues to conduct. When the charging current of the battery charging circuit drops to one tenth of the charging current in CC mode, charging stops.
