[0022] In the related technology, in a split-type flying car, an additional SBC module is set in the flying body to monitor the power of the lithium battery. The additional SBC module and related wiring harness will cause the weight of the flying body itself to increase by more than 150g; when the flying body is in sleep mode, the SBC module enters a low-power mode but does not sleep, and continuously monitors the power of the flying body's lithium battery, which will also increase the static current of the flying body; and when the power of the flying body's lithium battery drops below the warning value, the SBC module wakes up the flying body, and the flying body then wakes up the land body, aggravating the power consumption of the flying body.

[0023] In view of the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a flying car power replenishment method, which can optimize the flying car power replenishment process and avoid further consumption of the flying car's lithium battery.

[0024] The technical solution of the embodiments of the present application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Figure 1 It is a flow chart of a flying car power replenishment method shown in an embodiment of the present application.

[0026] See also Figure 1The present application provides a flying car charging method, which is applied to a split flying car, wherein the flying car includes a land body and a flying body, wherein the land body mainly includes a land body Bluetooth and a land body controller, and the flying body mainly includes a flying body Bluetooth, a flying body lithium battery controller, and a flying body controller. The method mainly includes steps S101 to S103.

[0027] Step S101: After the terrestrial body determines that the flying body meets the wake-up condition according to a preset method, the flying body is woken up.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, the terrestrial body in step S101 determines that the flying body meets the wake-up condition according to a preset method. Before the flying body goes into sleep, the flying body lithium battery controller sends the current lithium battery power to the terrestrial body, and the terrestrial body calculates the recharging time according to the power. When the corresponding recharging time arrives, the terrestrial body wakes up the flying body. However, the consumption of lithium battery power by the flying body is uncertain, so the calculated recharging time is not very accurate, and therefore has low applicability in practice.

[0029] Preferably, in step S101, the terrestrial body determining that the flying body meets the wake-up condition according to a preset manner may include the terrestrial body determining that the flying body meets the wake-up condition when the communication connection between the terrestrial body Bluetooth and the flying body Bluetooth meets a preset situation. Further, the terrestrial body Bluetooth may monitor that the communication connection of the flying body Bluetooth switches from connection to disconnection, and then determine that the flying body meets the wake-up condition.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the communication connection between the flying body Bluetooth and the land body Bluetooth has two conditions: connection and disconnection. When the flying body is powered, the flying body Bluetooth power feeding causes it to fail to work normally, so the connection between the flying body Bluetooth and the land body Bluetooth is disconnected. When the flying car is in a dormant state, the land body Bluetooth and the flying body Bluetooth are connected by default. At this time, the flying body lithium battery controller is also in a dormant state and cannot monitor the lithium battery power. Therefore, when the land body Bluetooth detects that the flying body Bluetooth is disconnected, it can be determined that the flying body is powered, and the flying body needs to be recharged, and then the land body wakes up the flying body. The embodiment of the present application cleverly converts the function of monitoring the insufficient power of the flying body into monitoring the online status of the flying body Bluetooth, and can avoid the additional use of the SBC module. The current flying car's land body and flying body are both equipped with Bluetooth functions, so there is no need to increase the hardware cost of the SBC module, and it will not cause the weight of the flying body to increase.

[0031] Furthermore, waking up the flying body may include: the land body waking up the land body controller via Bluetooth; the land body controller waking up the flying body via a wire. The land body is connected to the flying body via a wire. Currently, the communication interaction between the flying body and the land body is mostly CANFD communication, and the CANFD communication is incapable when the flying body is powered on. Therefore, a wire can be used to connect the flying body and the land body, which can ensure the reliability of the land body waking up the flying body. The wire is a LBMSF (Litz Braid Multi-strand Soft Flat) hard wire, which can meet the occasions with high requirements for electromagnetic compatibility, such as aerospace electronic equipment. After the flying body is powered on, the land body first wakes up the flying body's lithium battery controller through the LBMSF hard wire, avoiding the risk that the land body controller cannot identify the high-voltage fault of the flying body through CANFD communication.

[0032] Specifically, after the connection between the land body Bluetooth and the flying body Bluetooth is disconnected, the land body Bluetooth wakes up the land body controller through CANFD communication. After the land body controller is awakened, it wakes up the flying body lithium battery controller through the LBMSF hard line. After the flying body lithium battery controller wakes up and starts, it activates the last power of the lithium battery, and the flying body Bluetooth and the flying body controller are awakened.

[0033] When the flying object is awakened, the flying object Bluetooth is also awakened, and can reconnect with the terrestrial object Bluetooth for the next flying object power feed determination. Therefore, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include: after the flying object is awakened, the terrestrial object Bluetooth reconnects with the flying object Bluetooth.

[0034] Step S102: Acquire the battery information of the flying object sent by the flying object after being awakened.

[0035] Among them, the flying body lithium battery controller is awakened, and the flying body lithium battery controller transmits the flying body battery information to the land body controller through the flying body controller through CANFD communication, wherein the flying body battery information is the lithium battery power. Therefore, the land body controller in the land body can obtain the flying body battery information.

[0036] Step S103: After determining that the flying object needs to be recharged based on the acquired flying object battery information, recharge the flying object.

[0037] In this embodiment, the land body controller determines whether the flying body needs to be recharged based on the acquired lithium battery power. When the lithium battery power is below the set lithium battery power, it is determined that the flying body's lithium battery needs to be recharged, and then the flying body controller is requested to prepare for recharging through CANFD communication to recharge the flying body.

[0038] It should be noted that the flying body also includes DCDC (Direct Current / Direct Current converter) and the flying body high-voltage controller. After the flying body lithium battery controller wakes up and starts, it activates the last power of the lithium battery. In addition to the flying body Bluetooth and the flying body controller being awakened, the DCDC and the flying body high-voltage controller are also awakened. Similarly, the land body also includes the land body high-voltage controller.

[0039] Step S103 may further include: after determining that the flying object needs to be recharged according to the acquired flying object battery information, sending a recharge request to the flying object; receiving a permission response sent from the flying object; and recharging the flying object.

[0040] Furthermore, after obtaining the flying body battery information sent by the flying body after being awakened, the method may further include performing a high-voltage interlock detection; when the detection result is a locked state, determining whether the flying body needs to be recharged based on the obtained flying body battery information.

[0041] In this embodiment, step S103 may be specifically as follows: after the land body controller obtains the lithium battery power, the land body high voltage controller detects that the high voltage interlock of the separation and combination connector is in a locked state, and feeds back to the land body controller. The land body controller determines that the flying body lithium battery needs to be recharged at this time, and the land body controller requests the flying body controller to prepare for recharging through CANFD communication, that is, sends a recharge request; thereafter, the flying body controller obtains the system status of the DCDC and the flying body high voltage controller through CANFD communication, and after determining that the flying body high voltage recharge system has no faults, the flying body controller responds to the land body controller to allow recharging, and the land body controller receives the response of allowing recharging to recharge the flying body. Among them, before recharging the flying body, it is necessary to first determine whether the land body and the flying body are in a high voltage interlocking state, so as to avoid the unsafe risk of high voltage in the separated state and ensure the safety and reliability of recharging the flying body.

[0042] Furthermore, the step of supplying power to the flying object may include: Apply high voltage to the flying object; receiving a request to stop the power replenishment sent from the flying object, wherein the request to stop the power replenishment is sent by the flying object to the terrestrial object after the power replenishment is completed; Stop supplying high voltage to the flying object.

[0043] Among them, the land body controller increases the high voltage through the land body high-voltage controller, the land body high-voltage controller is connected to the flying body through the separation and combination connector, and the flying body high-voltage controller is recharged through the high-voltage line; the flying body high-voltage controller recharges the flying body lithium battery after reducing the voltage through DCDC, and the flying body lithium battery recharge is completed, the flying body controller sends a stop recharging request to the land body controller through CANFD communication, the land body controller reduces the high voltage through the land body high-voltage controller, that is, stops powering on the high voltage, and synchronizes the high voltage lowering state to the flying body controller, the flying body controller reduces the high voltage through the flying body high-voltage controller, and synchronizes the lowered high voltage state to the land body controller.

[0044] Finally, the flying body releases the sleep network management status and enters the sleep state. After the flying body re-enters the sleep state, the land body also enters the sleep state synchronously. The land body Bluetooth enters the low-power mode to continuously monitor the communication connection with the flying body Bluetooth for the next flying car power replenishment.

[0045] It can be seen that the embodiments of the present application are applied to a flying car, which includes a land body and a flying body, wherein the land body wakes up the flying body after determining that the flying body meets the wake-up condition according to a preset method, and converts the wake-up initiator from the flying body to the land body. It is unnecessary to install an SBC module and a corresponding wiring harness on the flying body, thereby realizing a lightweight design of the flying body. For example, by removing the SBC module and the corresponding wiring harness, the weight can be significantly reduced by more than 150g compared with the flying body equipped with the SBC module; the process of waking up the flying body by the SBC module and then waking up the land body by the flying body is omitted, which can avoid the lithium battery of the flying body. Further consumption; obtaining the flying body battery information sent by the flying body after being awakened; after determining that the flying body needs to be recharged based on the obtained flying body battery information, recharge the flying body. The technical solution of the present application deploys the main function of recharging the flying body on the land body, reducing the risk of the flying body lithium battery not being able to perform normal functional processing when feeding power, and at the same time optimizing the recharging process of the flying car. After the flying body is awakened, it is no longer necessary to request the land body to recharge the process and function. Instead, the land body directly recharges the power, cleverly converting the recharge initiated when the flying body is fed into active recharge of the land body, which is faster without the need for the flying body to request.
