[0037] The overall concept of the technical solution provided by this invention is as follows:

[0038] Please see Figure 1 The control circuit for multiple battery packs connected in parallel includes: a first battery pack 100, a second battery pack 200, and a load unit 300. The first battery pack 100 and the second battery pack 200 are respectively connected in parallel with the load unit 300. A first switching unit 400 and a first MOS unit 600 are connected in series between the first battery pack 100 and the load unit 300. A second switching unit 500 and a second MOS unit 700 are connected in series between the second battery pack 200 and the load unit 300. A MOS control module 800 is connected to the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700. The MOS control module 800 is used to control the closing and opening of the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 according to the voltage difference between the source and drain terminals of the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700.

[0039] The first battery pack 100 and the second battery pack 200 are connected in parallel with the load unit 300. The first battery pack 100 and the second battery pack 200 together provide power to the load unit 300. The first switching unit 400 and the first MOS unit 600 control the flow of current in the circuit of the first battery pack 100, and the second switching unit 500 and the second MOS unit 700 control the flow of current in the circuit of the second battery pack 200. A first output voltage value is obtained by controlling the closing of the first switching unit 400; a second output voltage value is obtained by controlling the closing of the second switching unit 500; and the first output voltage value is compared with... The second output voltage value; if the first output voltage value is greater than the second output voltage value, then the second MOS unit 700 is continuously closed, connecting the entire current loop to the high-voltage first battery pack 100, and flowing into the load through the diode to form a closed loop; if the first output voltage value is less than the second output voltage value, then the first MOS unit 600 is continuously closed, connecting the entire current loop to the high-voltage second battery pack 200, and flowing into the load through the diode to form a closed loop; if the first output voltage value is equal to the second output voltage value, then the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 do not need to be closed. In addition, by setting a first voltage threshold, a second voltage threshold, and a third voltage threshold for the MOS control module 800; the MOS control module 800 obtains the voltage values ​​at the source and drain terminals of the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700; if the voltage value is greater than the first voltage threshold, the MOS control module 800 controls the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 to open, so that the high voltage between the two battery packs will charge the low voltage; if the voltage value is greater than the second voltage threshold and less than the first voltage threshold, then the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 are closed. If the voltage value is less than the third threshold, then the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 are turned on, so that the high voltage between the two battery packs will charge the low voltage. If the voltage value is less than the third threshold, then the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 are turned off, so that the high voltage between the two battery packs will charge the low voltage through the diode circuit, reducing the current passing through. This patent proposes a new control circuit for multiple battery packs in parallel. It can switch the current between multiple battery packs in parallel in the application scenario by comparing the voltage of the hardware circuit. The control is simple, the response time is short, and the cost is low.

[0040] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] Furthermore, the first switching unit 400 is connected to one side of the positive terminal of the first battery pack 100, and the first MOS unit 600 is connected to one side of the negative terminal of the first battery pack 100. (See also...) Figure 2 The first switching unit 400 includes a switch K1, the first MOS unit 600 includes a MOS transistor MOS1, and Pack1 is the circuit of the first battery pack 100. The switch K1 and the MOS transistor MOS1 can control the flow of current in the circuit of the first battery pack 100.

[0043] Furthermore, the second switching unit 500 is connected to one side of the positive terminal of the second battery pack 200, and the second MOS unit 700 is connected to one side of the negative terminal of the second battery pack 200. (See also...) Figure 2 The second switching unit 500 includes a switch K2, the second MOS unit 700 includes a MOS transistor MOS2, and Pack2 is the circuit of the second battery pack 200. The switch K2 and the MOS transistor MOS2 can control the flow of current in the circuit of the second battery pack 200.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, when switch K1 is closed, the output voltage is Vp1; when switch K2 is closed, the output voltage is Vp2. The voltages between the two batteries are compared: ΔV = Vp1 - Vp2, where ΔV is the difference between Vp1 and Vp2. When ΔV > 0, MOSFET MOS2 remains closed, and the entire current loop can pass through the diode from the battery with the higher voltage, thus forming a loop. When ΔV < 0, MOSFET MOS1 remains closed, and the entire current loop can pass through the diode from the battery with the higher voltage, thus forming a loop. When ΔV = 0, there is no voltage difference between the two batteries, and it is not necessary to close the MOSFET.

[0045] Furthermore, the MOS control module 800 includes a first comparator, a second comparator, and a third comparator connected in parallel. The input terminals of the first, second, and third comparators are used to acquire the voltage difference between the source and drain of the first MOS cell 600 and the second MOS cell 700. The input terminals of the first, second, and third comparators are connected to the gates of the first MOS cell 600 and the second MOS cell 700. The input terminals of the first, second, and third comparators can monitor the gate voltages of the first MOS cell 600 and the second MOS cell 700 and use them as comparison input signals. By comparing the gate voltages through the first, second, and third comparators, the corresponding switching units are controlled according to the comparison results to achieve current regulation and voltage balance.

[0046] Furthermore, the output of the first comparator is connected to a third switching unit. The first comparator is used to control the opening and closing of the third switching unit. The first terminal of the third switching unit is connected to the gates of the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700, and the second terminal of the third switching unit is connected to the power supply unit. (See also...) Figure 3 The first comparator includes comparator U1, and the third switching unit includes switch K0.

[0047] Furthermore, the output of the second comparator is connected to the gates of the first MOS cell 600 and the second MOS cell 700, wherein, please refer to... Figure 3 The second comparator includes comparator U2.

[0048] Furthermore, the output of the third comparator is connected to the gates of the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 via a third MOS unit. The third comparator is used to control the switching on and off of the third MOS unit. (See also...) Figure 3 The third comparator includes comparator U3, and the third MOS unit includes MOS transistor MOS3.

[0049] Specifically, three voltage thresholds V1, V2, and V3 are set. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3Define the voltage difference between the source and drain of the first MOS cell 600 and the second MOS cell 700, i.e., Vs and Vd, as V0. The change of V0 depends on the change of the current through the MOS terminals. When V0 > V1, comparator U1 outputs a high level, controlling switch K0 to close. The voltage at the gate of MOS transistors MOS1 and MOS2 is pulled up to the power supply voltage, outputting a high level, controlling MOS transistors MOS1 and MOS2 to open. In this way, the high voltage between the first battery pack 100 and the second battery pack 200 will charge the low voltage. When V2 < V0 < V1, comparator U2 outputs a high level, M... The gates (G) of MOSFETs MOS1 and MOS2 directly output a high level, controlling MOSFETs MOS1 and MOS2 to open. In this way, the high voltage between the first battery pack 100 and the second battery pack 200 will charge the low voltage. When V0 < V3, comparator U3 outputs a high level, controlling MOSFET MOS3 to close. The gates (G) of MOSFETs MOS1 and MOS2 are pulled down to ground, outputting a low level, controlling MOSFETs MOS1 and MOS2 to open. In this way, the high voltage between the first battery pack 100 and the second battery pack 200 will charge the low voltage through the diode circuit, reducing the current passing through.

[0050] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention provide a new control circuit for multiple battery packs in parallel. By comparing the voltage of the hardware circuit, the current magnitude between the multiple battery packs in parallel application scenarios can be switched. The control is simple, has a short response time, and is low in cost.

[0051] Example 2

[0052] This invention provides a control method for multiple battery packs connected in parallel, the method comprising:

[0053] Control the closure of the first switch unit 400 to obtain the first output voltage value;

[0054] Control the closing of the second switch unit 500 to obtain the second output voltage value;

[0055] Compare the first output voltage value and the second output voltage value;

[0056] If the first output voltage value is greater than the second output voltage value, then the second MOS unit 700 is controlled to remain closed.

[0057] If the first output voltage value is less than the second output voltage value, then the first MOS unit 600 is kept closed.

[0058] If the first output voltage value is equal to the second output voltage value, then it is not necessary to close the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700.

[0059] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, when switch K1 is closed, the first output voltage value is Vp1, which is the output voltage value of the first battery pack 100 circuit. When switch K2 is closed, the second output voltage value is Vp2, which is the output voltage value of the second battery pack 200 circuit. The voltages between the two packs are compared, ΔV = Vp1 - Vp2, where ΔV is the difference between Vp1 and Vp2. When ΔV > 0, it means that the first output voltage value is greater than the second output voltage value. At this time, MOSFET MOS2 is continuously closed, and the entire current loop can pass through the diode from the battery pack with the higher voltage, thus forming a loop. When ΔV < 0, it means that the second output voltage value is greater than the first output voltage value. At this time, MOSFET MOS1 is continuously closed, and the entire current loop can pass through the diode from the battery pack with the higher voltage, thus forming a loop. When ΔV = 0, it means that the first output voltage value is equal to the second output voltage value. At this time, there is no voltage difference between the two packs, and it is not necessary to close the MOSFET.

[0060] Furthermore, a control method for multiple battery packs connected in parallel also includes:

[0061] Set a first voltage threshold, a second voltage threshold, and a third voltage threshold for the MOS control module 800;

[0062] The MOS control module 800 acquires the voltage values ​​at the source and drain terminals of the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700.

[0063] If the voltage value is greater than the first voltage threshold, the MOS control module 800 controls the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 to turn on;

[0064] If the voltage value is greater than the second voltage threshold and less than the first voltage threshold, then control the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 to turn on;

[0065] If the voltage value is less than the third threshold, then the first MOS unit 600 and the second MOS unit 700 are turned off.

[0066] Specifically, three voltage thresholds V1, V2, and V3 are set, where the first voltage threshold is V1, the second voltage threshold is V2, and the third voltage threshold is V3. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 and Figure 3The voltage values ​​across the source and drain of the first MOS cell 600 and the second MOS cell 700, i.e., the voltage difference between Vs and Vd, are defined as V0. The change of V0 depends on the change of the current through the MOS terminals. When V0 > V1, comparator U1 outputs a high level, controlling switch K0 to close. The voltage at the gate of MOS transistors MOS1 and MOS2 is pulled up to the power supply voltage, outputting a high level, controlling MOS transistors MOS1 and MOS2 to open. In this way, the high voltage between the first battery pack 100 and the second battery pack 200 will charge the low voltage. When V2 < V0 < V1, comparator U2 outputs a high level. When V0 < V3, comparator U3 outputs a high level, controlling MOSFET MOS1 and MOSFET MOS2 to open, so that the high voltage between the first battery pack 100 and the second battery pack 200 will charge the low voltage; when V0 < V3, comparator U3 outputs a high level, controlling MOSFET MOS3 to close, and the gates of MOSFET MOS1 and MOSFET MOS2 are pulled down to ground, outputting a low level, controlling MOSFET MOS1 and MOSFET MOS2 to open, so that the high voltage between the first battery pack 100 and the second battery pack 200 will charge the low voltage through the diode circuit, reducing the current passing through.

[0067] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention provide a new control method for multiple battery packs in parallel. By comparing the voltage of the hardware circuit, the current magnitude between the multiple battery packs in parallel can be switched in the application scenario. The control is simple, has a short response time, and is low in cost.
