[0024] Below is a combination of the embodiments and the attached Figure 1 , the technical solution of the present invention is further elaborated.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] A high-voltage wiring harness system for new energy vehicles includes: a data acquisition module 1, a CAN bus 2, a battery management system 3, a vehicle controller 4 and a safety mechanism module 5, wherein the data acquisition module 1 includes a current sensor 11, a voltage sensor 12 and a temperature sensor 13, wherein the current sensor 11, the voltage sensor 12 and the temperature sensor 13 are all arranged in the middle of the high-voltage wiring harness 6, the output end of the battery pack and the input end of the motor controller, and each group of the current sensor 11, the voltage sensor 12 and the temperature sensor 13 are connected to the battery management system 3 and the vehicle controller 4 through the CAN bus 2, the battery management system 3 processes the collected voltage, current and temperature data, and calculates the SOC and SOH parameters of the battery, and the vehicle controller 4 receives the processed data of the battery management system 3, and the safety mechanism module 5 and the battery management system 3 are connected to the vehicle controller 4 through the CAN bus 2.

[0027] This system can provide real-time monitoring of the status of high-voltage wiring harnesses through comprehensive data collection, thereby improving the safety and reliability of new energy vehicles. Data transmission through the CAN bus ensures the real-time and accuracy of data, allowing the battery management system 3 and the vehicle controller 4 to respond and handle various situations in a timely manner.

[0028] A control method for a high-voltage wiring harness system of a new energy vehicle comprises the following steps:

[0029] S1: Data collection and transmission: Data is collected through three sets of current sensors 11, three sets of voltage sensors 12 and three sets of temperature sensors 13 arranged in the middle of the high-voltage wire harness 6, the output end of the battery pack and the input end of the motor controller, and then the collected current, voltage and temperature data are transmitted to the battery management system 3 and the vehicle controller 4 in real time through the CAN bus 2;

[0030] S2: SOC calculation analysis: The battery management system 3 calculates the initial SOC0 based on the sensor data. Based on the ratio of the current power of the battery to the full power, the current value I measured by the three sets of current sensors 11 is integrated, and the battery charge and discharge efficiency η is considered to calculate the change of SOC using the formula: Among them C N is the rated capacity of the battery, I is the average value of the battery charge and discharge current, and η is the battery charge and discharge efficiency; then the data of the three groups of current sensors 11 are compared to ensure the accuracy of the current integration. If the data are inconsistent, the final current value is determined by majority voting or weighted average method;

[0031] S3: SOH evaluation: The battery management system 3 performs data fusion based on the data of the three groups of voltage sensors 12 and the three groups of temperature sensors 13, as well as the data of the current sensor 11, and comprehensively evaluates the SOH;

[0032] S4: Abnormal detection: The vehicle controller 4 receives the data in the battery management system 3, and analyzes the data collected in S1, wherein the final current value, voltage value and temperature value are determined by majority voting or weighted average method for comparison with the preset safety threshold, and an alarm is issued after reaching the set safety threshold; if the safety threshold is exceeded and the final current value, voltage value and temperature value are determined by majority voting or weighted average method for comparison with the preset maximum value, after reaching the set maximum value, the high-voltage power supply is cut off through the high-voltage contactor;

[0033] S5: Record all sensor data, SOC and SOH calculation results, abnormal events and system response measures, and transmit these data to the vehicle's information system via CAN bus 2 for subsequent diagnosis and maintenance.

[0034] The current is monitored by the current sensor 11, and the data is used to calculate the battery charge and discharge state and the battery SOC. The current data is also used to detect abnormal current in the circuit, such as short circuit or overload conditions;

[0035] The voltage sensor 12 monitors the voltage of the battery pack and key electrical equipment to ensure that the voltage is within a safe range. The voltage data is used to calculate the SOC and SOH of the battery and detect voltage anomalies, such as excessively high or low voltage;

[0036] The temperature sensor 13 monitors the temperature of the battery pack, motor and other key components, and the data is used to prevent overheating and thermal management control. Abnormal temperature may indicate thermal runaway or other heat-related failures.

[0037] The current sensor, voltage sensor and temperature sensor are installed in the middle of the high-voltage harness, the output end of the battery pack and the input end of the motor controller respectively. The data collection of each sensor should be synchronized to ensure time consistency. The data of the three sets of current sensors are compared, and the current data is integrated to calculate the SOC of the battery, ensuring that the estimated value is within the range of 0% to 100%, ensuring that the SOC calculation is more accurate.

[0038] The data from three groups of voltage sensors and three groups of temperature sensors, as well as the data from the current sensor, are combined to comprehensively evaluate the SOH, and the SOH result is more accurate.

[0039] The abnormality detection in step S4 is to ensure the safety and stability of the system. The vehicle controller 4 receives data from the battery management system 3 and compares it with the preset safety threshold, so that the working status of the battery can be monitored in real time. When it is detected that the current, voltage or temperature exceeds the safety threshold, the system will sound an alarm to remind the driver or automatically take corresponding safety measures. If the detected value exceeds the preset maximum value, the system will immediately cut off the high-voltage power supply through the high-voltage contactor to prevent possible battery damage, fire or other safety accidents; it not only improves the safety performance of the vehicle, but also helps to improve the overall driving experience and vehicle maintenance efficiency.

[0040] In this way, the system can more accurately calculate and analyze the battery's SOC and SOH in real time, detect abnormal conditions in a timely manner, and take action when necessary. At the same time, all key data are recorded and transmitted to the vehicle's information system for subsequent diagnosis and maintenance.

[0041] As a further preferred embodiment, the safety mechanism module 5 includes a high-voltage contactor. The contactor is connected to the battery management system 3 and the vehicle controller 4 through the CAN bus 2. When the battery management system 3 detects an abnormal situation, such as battery overcharge, over discharge or abnormal temperature, it will immediately notify the vehicle controller 4. After receiving the signal, the vehicle controller 4 will cut off the high-voltage contactor through the safety mechanism module to cut off the high-voltage power supply to prevent the fault from spreading further.

[0042] As a further preferred embodiment, the battery management system 3 is provided with a fault self-diagnosis module 7, and the vehicle controller 4 is provided with a high-voltage interlock circuit detection module 8. The fault self-diagnosis module can timely detect and classify faults inside the battery management system, while the high-voltage interlock circuit detection module ensures the physical connection integrity of the high-voltage system. The integration of these two modules enables the system to take measures at the early stage of a fault, thereby improving the reliability and maintainability of the system.

[0043] As a further preferred embodiment, the fault self-diagnosis module 7 inside the battery management system 3 performs real-time monitoring and diagnosis of the battery status, including battery parameter monitoring, fault detection, system integrity check and data comparison; the high-voltage interlocking circuit detection module 8 inside the vehicle controller 4 performs real-time detection of the high-voltage interlocking circuit, and immediately issues a fault alarm when it detects that the interlocking circuit is disconnected.

[0044] As a further preferred embodiment, when the fault self-diagnosis module 7 detects a fault inside the battery management system 3, it records the fault information and classifies it according to the fault type and severity; the vehicle controller 4 receives the fault classification information from the fault self-diagnosis module 7, and decides whether to immediately notify the driver or take other measures according to the preset fault handling strategy; when it is confirmed that the fault will not immediately affect the safety of the vehicle, the vehicle controller 4 can decide to continue the vehicle operation, while providing suggestions or plans for fault repair, and notifying the driver through the vehicle information system; if the fault may affect the safety of the vehicle, the vehicle controller 4 will immediately take measures through the safety mechanism module 5, such as limiting the vehicle performance or guiding the driver to park safely, and notify the nearest service center for repair. The above fault handling strategy enables the system to respond flexibly according to the specific circumstances of the fault. For faults that do not affect safety, the system can continue to operate and provide repair suggestions; for faults that may affect safety, immediate measures are taken to ensure the safety of the vehicle and passengers.

[0045] The preferred specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above. It should be understood that a person skilled in the art can make many modifications and changes based on the concept of the present invention without creative work. Therefore, any technical solution that can be obtained by a person skilled in the art through logical analysis, reasoning or limited experiments based on the concept of the present invention on the basis of the prior art should be within the scope of protection determined by the claims.
