[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0019] This application selects 4 different scenarios for dynamic safety testing of battery system protection. Each scenario can be tested multiple times, so that the protection safety performance of the battery system can be examined from multiple dimensions. In one example, the test scenarios include: a scenario of structural protection safety testing of the battery system from three directions, XYZ, and an N-direction composite test condition scenario that includes both the X and Z directions. The testing of the above four scenarios can provide a deeper understanding of the true safety performance of the battery system in a complex vehicle use environment. It should be noted that a structural protection test of the battery system from a single direction cannot reflect its safety capability index against complex road impacts.

[0020] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0021] The battery system structure safety protection test method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to Figure 1 In the application environment shown. Among them, the terminal 102 communicates with the server 104 through the network. The data storage system can store the data that the server 104 needs to process. The data storage system can be set up separately, integrated on the server 104, or placed on the cloud or other servers. The terminal 102 can send relevant instructions for the all-round safety protection performance test of the battery system to the server 104. After receiving the instructions, the server 104 sends at least four scenario test instructions to the corresponding hardware structure, and then receives the corresponding test results; after weighting the four test results, the final test result is obtained. The server 104 can feedback the final test result to the terminal 102.

[0022] The terminal 102 may be, but is not limited to, various desktop computers, laptop computers, tablet computers, IoT devices, and portable wearable devices. The portable wearable devices may be smart watches, smart bracelets, head-mounted devices, etc. The server 104 may be implemented as an independent server or a server cluster consisting of multiple servers, or may be a cloud server.

[0023] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 2As shown, a battery system structure safety protection test method is provided. The method is executed by a computer device, and can be executed by a computer device such as a terminal or a server alone, or by a terminal and a server together. In the embodiment of the present application, the method is applied to Figure 1 The server 104 in the example is used for explanation, and the steps include the following steps 201 to 202.

[0024] Step 201, execute the first scenario test to obtain the first test result; execute the second scenario test to obtain the second test result; execute the third scenario test to obtain the third test result; execute the fourth scenario test to obtain the fourth test result.

[0025] Among them, the first scenario test, the second scenario test, the third scenario test, and the fourth scenario test are respectively to impact the battery system in the first direction, the second direction, the third direction, and the fourth direction; the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are respectively the X-axis direction, the Y-axis direction, and the Z-axis direction with the battery system as the origin, and the fourth direction is determined based on any two directions of the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction.

[0026] In practical applications, four test scenarios need to be determined for each battery system to be tested, and each test scenario can be tested multiple times. For the test scenario corresponding to the fourth direction, different fourth directions can be selected for multiple tests; then the results obtained from the multiple tests are weighted to obtain the final fourth test result.

[0027] The first scenario test is as follows.

[0028] First, set the relevant data parameters in the scene: the scene includes obstacles, and the contact end between the obstacle and the battery system (or battery pack) is the top of a 150mm (±1mm) diameter cylinder with a chamfer R=50mm (±1mm), made of #45 steel. In this scene, the impact direction of the battery system is the positive direction of the X axis. In general, the direction of the car's travel is the X axis, and the other horizontal direction perpendicular to the travel direction is the Y axis.

[0029] According to the structural layout of the battery system, there are two optional impact positions, one is the point with the greatest risk of forward impact of the battery system provided by the manufacturer; the other is the 1 / 4 position of the front end of the battery system. Choose one of them as the impact position for subsequent impacts. Then, set the impact speed to V=20km / h (±1km / h). The impact overlap is the overlap H=20mm (-0mm / +6mm) along the Z direction between the highest point on the top of the obstacle and the lowest point on the bottom of the battery system under the vehicle mass counterweight.

[0030] Finally, after completing the impact according to the above conditions, observe for 2 hours at the test environment temperature, and then obtain the corresponding first test result.

[0031] The second scenario test is as follows.

[0032] First, set the relevant data parameters in the scene: no obstacles are set in the scene, but an impact head is used instead. The impact head is made of steel, and the contact end between the impact head and the battery system is a semi-cylindrical shape with a diameter of 130mm. In this scene, the impact direction of the battery system is the positive direction of the Y axis.

[0033] One of the two optional impact positions recorded in the first scenario test above is selected as the impact position for the subsequent impact. Then, the impact speed is set to 15 km / h and the impact mass is set to 2000 kg.

[0034] Finally, after completing the impact according to the above conditions, observe for 2 hours at the test environment temperature, and then obtain the corresponding second test result.

[0035] The third scenario test is as follows.

[0036] First, set the relevant data parameters in the scene: no obstacles are set in the scene, and an impact head is used. The impact head is made of steel, and the contact end between the impact head and the battery system is a hemispherical shape with a diameter of 30mm. In this scene, the impact direction of the battery system is the positive direction of the Z axis.

[0037] According to the structural layout of the battery system, three bottom protection risk points of the battery system were selected as the impact positions (covering the front, middle and rear of the battery). Then the impact energy was set to 150J.

[0038] Finally, after completing the impact test according to the above conditions, observe for 2 hours at the test environment temperature, and then obtain the corresponding third test result. In addition, when the battery system is impact tested, the body structure that protects the battery pack or system is allowed to participate in the test.

[0039] The fourth scenario test is as follows.

[0040] Executing a fourth scenario test to obtain a fourth test result specifically includes: determining a fourth direction, and determining a scenario test component based on the fourth direction; and performing a fourth direction impact test on the battery system based on the scenario test component to obtain a fourth test result. Specifically, the fourth scenario test is a composite impact scenario, in which the fourth direction is obtained by vector superposition of any two of the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction. In practical applications, the first direction and the second direction are generally selected for determination.

[0041] The scenario test component includes a test platform and an obstacle; the obstacle is set on the test platform; the setting angle and surface shape of the obstacle correspond to the fourth direction, so that when the battery system moves to the position of the obstacle, the battery system and the obstacle overlap; the test platform has a slope, and the slope is used to simulate potholes on the road. The slope of the test platform ranges from 0° to 5°. Figure 3 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the relative positions of the test platform, obstacles and battery system.

[0042] In another practical application, the test platform includes an uphill section, a straight section, and a downhill section arranged in sequence. Figure 3 The position of the obstacle shown in is on the downhill section.

[0043] In an actual test process, the contact end between the obstacle and the battery system is a spherical top with R=75mm (±1mm), made of #45 steel. The height of the obstacle is such that there is a certain amount of overlap between its top and the bottom of the battery pack in the direction perpendicular to the ground. The impact direction is still the positive direction of the X-axis, because the test platform has a slope, so even if the impact is carried out in the positive direction of the X-axis, it will not affect the angle of the battery system being impacted, and by adjusting the relative position of the preset obstacle and the running platform such as steps, the obstacle hits the weakest position of the battery pack.

[0044] According to the structural layout of the battery system, there are two optional impact positions, one is the point with the greatest risk of forward impact of the battery system provided by the manufacturer; the other is the 1 / 4 position of the front end of the battery system. Choose one of them as the impact position for subsequent impacts. Then, set the impact speed to V=20km / h (±1km / h). The impact overlap is the overlap H=20mm (-0mm / +6mm) along the Z direction between the highest point on the top of the obstacle and the lowest point on the bottom of the battery system under the vehicle mass counterweight.

[0045] According to the above conditions, the vehicle body structure including the battery system is driven down from a platform such as a right-angle step of a certain height of a curbstone at a set speed, so that the battery system collides with the obstacle, thus completing the impact. Then observe for 2 hours at the test environment temperature, and then obtain the corresponding fourth test result.

[0046] Step 202: weighting the first test result, the second test result, the third test result and the fourth test result to obtain a final test result.

[0047] In an application example, the first test result, the second test result, the third test result, and the fourth test result all include three levels.

[0048] Among them, the first level is represented by A=100; the first level indicates that after the battery system is impacted, the insulation of the battery system meets the first preset condition, and the airtightness of the battery system meets the second preset condition. The second level is represented by B=80; the second level indicates that after the battery system is impacted, the insulation of the battery system does not meet the first preset condition, or the airtightness of the battery system does not meet the second preset condition. The third level is represented by C=60; the third level indicates that after the battery system is impacted, the insulation of the battery system does not meet the first preset condition, and the airtightness of the battery system does not meet the second preset condition.

[0049] In order to be practical, the following preset conditions are set in this application: the first preset condition is that the insulation strength of the battery system is not less than the preset insulation strength value; the preset insulation strength value ranges from 100Ω / V to 500Ω / V; the second preset condition is that the gas leakage of the battery system is less than the preset leakage value; the preset leakage value ranges from 0Pa / min to 100Pa / min. In different tests, the above preset conditions can be adaptively changed.

[0050] In another application example, step 202 specifically includes the following four steps.

[0051] (1) Obtain a historical damaged battery system data set within a preset time period. In practical applications, the model of the battery system in the historical damaged battery system data set obtained is consistent with the model of the battery system to be tested. The more conventional determination method is to determine it based on the production company.

[0052] (2) Determine, based on the historical damaged battery system data set, the number of battery systems damaged in a first direction, the number of battery systems damaged in a second direction, the number of battery systems damaged in a third direction, and the number of battery systems damaged in a fourth direction.

[0053] (3) Based on the number of damaged battery systems in the first direction, the number of damaged battery systems in the second direction, the number of damaged battery systems in the third direction, and the number of damaged battery systems in the fourth direction, determine a first direction weight coefficient, a second direction weight coefficient, a third direction weight coefficient, and a fourth direction weight coefficient. Specifically, the corresponding weight coefficients may be determined according to the ratio of the number of damaged battery systems in different directions.

[0054] In addition, generally speaking, the weight coefficients corresponding to different production companies or different preset durations are different.

[0055] (4) Based on the first direction weight coefficient, the second direction weight coefficient, the third direction weight coefficient and the fourth direction weight coefficient, weighted calculation is performed on the first test result, the second test result, the third test result and the fourth test result to obtain a final test result.

[0056] In a specific application example, as shown in Table 1 below, the first scenario test is performed with item X as the representation, the second scenario test is performed with item Y as the representation, the third scenario test is performed with item Z as the representation, and the fourth scenario test is performed with item N as the representation. The weight coefficients determined based on (1) to (3) above are: the weight coefficient of the first direction is 60%, the weight coefficient of the second direction is 30%, the weight coefficient of the third direction is 7%, and the weight coefficient of the fourth direction is 3%. The final test result is calculated using the weighting formula S=S1×K1+S2×K2+S3×K3+S4×K4.

[0057] Table 1

[0058]

[0059] It should be noted that the four directional weight coefficients K1, K2, K3, and K4 fully consider the probability and difficulty of the battery system being hit during the actual collision of the vehicle. Finally, threshold matching can also be performed based on the final test results obtained in Table 1 above to obtain the corresponding performance of the battery system.

[0060] In summary, this application provides a feasible solution for the dynamic safety evaluation of the bottom of the electric vehicle power battery pack, which has a positive role in promoting the green and healthy development of new energy.
