[0058] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0059] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions and technical effects of the embodiments of the present invention, the prior art of the present invention is briefly described below.

[0060] The number of electric vehicles in the market continues to rise. At the same time, due to the slow charging rate of electric vehicles and the low operating efficiency of vehicles, battery swap stations have become important charging facilities necessary for the endurance of electric vehicles. A battery swap station is a facility that provides battery replacement services specifically for electric vehicles. The battery swap station includes at least one charging station, and each charging station includes at least one spare battery. The battery swap station can use the spare batteries in the charging station to replace the depleted batteries on the electric vehicle. The capacity of each charging station is fixed, so the battery capacity matched to each charging station is also fixed, and each charging station can only replace batteries with a specific battery capacity.

[0061] The battery swap station is also equipped with a charger for the charging station, through which the low-power batteries replaced from the electric vehicle can be charged. However, the capacity of the charger is fixed, that is, the charging power that each charger can provide is fixed. Therefore, the battery capacity matched to each charging station is also fixed, and each charging station can only charge batteries of a specific battery capacity through a charger. Among them, the battery swap station can be a heavy-duty truck battery swap station, and the electric vehicle can be a heavy-duty truck. The heavy-duty truck battery swap station is a facility that specializes in providing battery replacement services for heavy-duty trucks.

[0062] Since the charging stations in the battery swap station can only charge batteries with a specific battery capacity through the charger, the charger and the battery in the electric vehicle are highly matched, and it is difficult for the charging station to charge batteries of different capacities through the charger. Even if the charging station can charge batteries of different capacities through the charger, the charging speed of the charging station will be slower when charging batteries of non-specific battery capacity through the charger.

[0063] As battery technology matures, the battery capacity of electric vehicles is also increasing. Therefore, the chargers in most of the battery swap stations that have been built cannot meet the fast charging needs of batteries with non-specific battery capacities. If the battery swap stations are replaced with chargers that can meet the fast charging needs of batteries with larger capacities, the cost will be huge.

[0064] Reference Figure 1 , shows a flowchart of the steps of a vehicle battery charging method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a charging facility for a vehicle battery, wherein the charging facility includes at least a cloud platform, a battery swap station, and a power source; specifically, the following steps may be included:

[0065] Step 101, obtaining predicted demand information for charging power of a preset vehicle battery, and configuring a target transformer for the battery swap station based on the predicted demand information; the target transformer is connected to the power source;

[0066] In an embodiment of the present invention, the charging facilities for the vehicle battery may include a power source, a cloud platform, and a battery swap station. The power source may be a power grid. The battery swap station is connected to the power source, and the battery swap station is also connected to the cloud platform for communication. The battery swap station may use the power of the power source to charge the battery of the vehicle to be charged, and the battery of the vehicle to be charged may be called a low-power battery.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present invention, a target transformer can be configured for a battery swap station. Specifically, when designing a battery swap station, the predicted demand information for the charging power of a vehicle battery can be obtained, and the target transformer can be configured for the battery swap station based on the predicted demand information. The predicted demand information for the charging power of a vehicle battery is the predicted charging power that the battery swap station needs to provide when charging the vehicle battery.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, the battery swap station includes at least one charging station; the charging station is used to charge the battery of the vehicle to be charged; and configuring a target transformer for the battery swap station based on the predicted demand information includes:

[0069] Obtain the number of charging stations of the battery swap station;

[0070] Determining the capacity of the target transformer of the battery swap station based on the number of the charging stations and the predicted demand information of the charging power;

[0071] Based on the capacity of the target transformer, the target transformer is configured for the battery swap station.

[0072] Specifically, the battery swap station includes at least one charging station, and each charging station is equipped with a charger. The charging station can charge the battery of the vehicle to be charged through the charger.

[0073] When configuring the target transformer for the battery swap station, the number of charging stations in the battery swap station can be obtained. Each charging station can only charge the battery of one vehicle to be charged at the same time. Based on the number of charging stations and the predicted demand information for the charging power of the vehicle battery, the capacity of the target transformer of the battery swap station can be determined. The predicted demand information for the charging power of the vehicle battery is the predicted charging power that each station needs to provide when charging the vehicle battery.

[0074] Specifically, the predicted demand information of the charging power of the vehicle battery is obtained, and the maximum charging power in the predicted demand information of the charging power of the vehicle battery is used as the maximum charging power that can be provided by each charging station; and the maximum charging power of each charging station is added to obtain the total power demand value of the battery swap station. Because a certain amount of redundant capacity needs to be considered when designing a battery swap station to ensure reliability and to leave room for possible future expansion, a target transformer capacity slightly larger than the total power demand value is selected based on the total power demand value. The target transformer capacity is used as the capacity of the target transformer, and a target transformer of this capacity is configured for the battery swap station.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present invention, the charging facility also includes a charging stack; the charging stack includes a charging stack master control system; the target transformer includes a primary side and / or a secondary side; the primary side is connected to the power supply; and the secondary side is connected to the charging stack master control system.

[0076] Specifically, the charging facility also includes a charging stack, and the charging stack includes a charging stack master control system. The target transformer includes a primary side and / or a secondary side, the primary side is connected to a power source, and the secondary side is connected to the charging stack master control system.

[0077] Reference Figure 2 , showing a schematic diagram of a charging facility for a vehicle battery provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The charging facility for a vehicle battery includes a power grid, a battery swap station, a charging pile and a cloud platform. The battery swap station includes a station control system, and the charging pile includes a charging pile master control system. The cloud platform is respectively connected to the station control system and the charging pile master control system. The battery swap station includes at least one charging station, and each charging station is equipped with a charger. The charging pile also includes a target transformer. The target transformer includes a primary side and a secondary side, the primary side is connected to the power grid, the secondary side is connected to the charging pile master control system, and the charging pile is also connected to the charging station. The secondary side can be regarded as a "total power battery", which can store power and provide power to each charging station. The target transformer is used to convert the high voltage of the power grid into a low voltage suitable for battery charging, and the high voltage of the power grid can be 10kV (kilovolts). The charging station can charge the battery of the vehicle to be charged through the charger. The charging pile master control system can control the target transformer to output the power of the power grid to the charging station where the battery of the vehicle to be charged is located. Moreover, the charging stack master control system can control the target transformer to output the power of the power grid to the charging station where the battery of the vehicle to be charged is located according to the charging power demand information of the battery of the vehicle to be charged, so that the charging power provided by the charging station meets the charging power demand of the battery of the vehicle to be charged. Figure 2 The box structure is a charging stack, which includes a target transformer and a charging stack main control system. The target transformer and the charging stack main control system can be integrated in a box structure, and the box structure can be pre-fabricated in a factory.

[0078] Step 102, obtaining battery information of the vehicle to be charged, and using the cloud platform to analyze the battery information to obtain charging power requirement information of the battery of the vehicle to be charged;

[0079] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the vehicle to be charged moves to the vicinity of the charging facility of the vehicle battery, the charging facility of the vehicle battery can obtain the battery information of the vehicle to be charged, and use the cloud platform to analyze the battery information to obtain the charging power requirement information of the battery of the vehicle to be charged.

[0080] In some embodiments of the present invention, the battery swap station further includes a station control system; the step of obtaining battery information of the vehicle to be charged includes:

[0081] Using the station control system to obtain the battery information of the vehicle to be charged, and controlling the station control system to send the battery information to the cloud platform;

[0082] After the battery information is analyzed by the cloud platform to obtain the charging power requirement information of the battery of the vehicle to be charged, the method includes:

[0083] Control the cloud platform to send the charging power demand information to the charging stack main control system.

[0084] Specifically, the battery swap station also includes a station control system. The charging facilities of the vehicle battery can use the station control system to obtain the battery information of the vehicle to be charged. Furthermore, the station control system can be connected to the battery management system of the vehicle through network communication, and then obtain the battery information of the vehicle to be charged stored in the battery management system through the network. The charging facilities of the vehicle battery also include a camera. The station control system can use the camera to obtain the license plate information of the vehicle to be charged, and obtain the battery information of the vehicle to be charged based on the license plate information.

[0085] The charging facility of the vehicle battery can control the station control system to send the battery information to the cloud platform. Then, the charging facility of the vehicle battery can use the cloud platform to analyze the battery information and obtain the charging power demand information of the battery of the vehicle to be charged.

[0086] In some embodiments of the present invention, the battery swap station further includes a robot; and the method includes:

[0087] Controlling the robot to disassemble the battery in the vehicle to be charged and placing the battery on the charging station;

[0088] The robot is controlled to connect the battery to the charging station.

[0089] Specifically, the battery swap station may also include a robot. After the station control system of the battery swap station sends the battery information to the cloud platform, the station control system can control the robot to remove the battery in the vehicle to be charged and place the battery on the charging station. Then, the station control system can control the robot to connect the battery to the charger at the charging station. The station control system can also replace the fully charged battery in the charging station with the vehicle to be charged.

[0090] Step 103: Based on the charging power demand information, control the target transformer to transmit the power of the power source to the battery swap station; the battery swap station is used to charge the battery of the vehicle to be charged using the power transmitted by the target transformer.

[0091] In the embodiment of the present invention, after the robot connects the battery to the charger at the charging station, the charging stack master control system can control the target transformer to transmit the power of the power supply to the battery swap station. At the same time, the charging stack master control system can make the charging power output by the battery swap station meet the charging power demand of the battery of the vehicle to be charged based on the charging power demand information. The battery swap station can use the power delivered by the target transformer to charge the battery of the vehicle to be charged.

[0092] In some embodiments of the present invention, the controlling the target transformer to transmit the power of the power source to the battery swap station based on the charging power demand information includes:

[0093] Determine the charging station where the battery of the vehicle to be charged is placed using the charging stack master control system;

[0094] Based on the charging power demand information, the charging stack master control system is used to control the target transformer to transmit the power of the power source to the charging station where the battery of the vehicle to be charged is placed.

[0095] Specifically, after the robot connects the battery to the charger at the charging station, the charging stack master control system can determine the charging station where the battery of the vehicle to be charged is placed. Based on the charging power demand information, the charging stack master control system controls the target transformer to transmit the power of the power supply to the charging station where the battery of the vehicle to be charged is placed, and the charging power output by the charger at the charging station meets the charging power demand of the vehicle to be charged.

[0096] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, the battery swap station includes at least one charging station, and the battery swap station usually does not operate at full capacity at the same time, that is, at the same time, the charging stations in the battery swap station will not all be charging the batteries of the vehicles to be charged. The charging power redundancy for a single battery is at least twice the rated value.

[0097] In an embodiment of the present invention, the charging stack master control system can use the charging station to charge the battery of the vehicle to be charged according to the charging power demand of the battery of the vehicle to be charged. If the total power of the battery being charged in the battery swap station is close to the capacity of the target transformer, the station control system will suspend the vehicle to be charged from entering the battery swap station to replace the battery. After the total power of the battery being charged in the battery swap station is no longer close to the capacity of the target transformer, the vehicle to be charged will continue to be allowed to enter the battery swap station to replace the battery, and the battery removed from the vehicle to be charged will be charged.

[0098] In some embodiments of the invention, the method comprises:

[0099] Based on the predicted demand information of the charging power and the capacity of the target transformer, the number of the charging stations in the battery swap station is adjusted.

[0100] In an embodiment of the present invention, the number of charging stations in the battery swap station can be adjusted based on the predicted demand information for charging power and the capacity of the target transformer. For example, the number of charging stations in the battery swap station is increased so that the battery swap station can charge more batteries at the same time. When charging the battery at the battery swap station, the cloud platform analyzes and obtains the charging power demand information of the battery. The charging stack master control system can allocate charging power to the charging station where the battery is located according to the charging power demand information of the battery, and charge at full efficiency when the battery swap station is not fully loaded. The non-full load of the battery swap station means that at the same time, the charging stations in the battery swap station will not all be charging the batteries of the vehicles to be charged.

[0101] In an embodiment of the present invention, the charging facilities for vehicle batteries include at least a cloud platform, a battery swap station, and a power source. The charging facilities for vehicle batteries obtain the predicted demand information for the charging power of a preset vehicle battery, and configure a target transformer for the battery swap station based on the predicted demand information, and the target transformer is connected to the power source. The charging facilities for vehicle batteries obtain the battery information of the vehicle to be charged, and use the cloud platform to analyze the battery information to obtain the charging power demand information of the battery of the vehicle to be charged. Based on the charging power demand information, the target transformer is controlled to transmit the power of the power source to the battery swap station, and the battery swap station is used to charge the battery of the vehicle to be charged using the power transmitted by the target transformer. In an embodiment of the present invention, when facing vehicle batteries of different capacities, the charging facilities can control the target transformer to transmit the power to the battery swap station according to the charging power demand information of the battery of the vehicle to be charged, so that the battery swap station charges the battery of the vehicle to be charged, and the output power of the battery swap station meets the charging power demand of the battery.

[0102] In an embodiment of the present invention, the capacity of the target transformer is determined according to the number of charging stations and the predicted demand information of the charging power of the vehicle battery. Specifically, the maximum charging power in the predicted demand information can be used as the maximum charging power of each charging station. When the capacity of the battery of the vehicle to be charged is a non-specific capacity, the battery of the vehicle to be charged can be connected to the charging station through the charger. The cloud platform can analyze and obtain the charging power demand information of the battery. The charging stack master control system can allocate the charging power to the charging station where the battery is located according to the charging power demand information of the battery, and charge at full efficiency under non-full load at the battery swap station, thereby improving the charging efficiency, realizing charging for batteries of different capacities, and meeting the fast charging requirements for charging batteries of different capacities. At the same time, it solves the problem that the battery swap station cannot follow up in time due to the replacement of vehicle batteries and the increase in capacity. There is no need to replace the charger for the battery swap station that can meet the fast charging requirements of batteries with larger capacity, thereby reducing the cost of charging batteries of non-specific capacity.

[0103] In the embodiment of the present invention, the target transformer and the charging pile master control system adopt an integrated design and can be integrated into a box structure, and the box structure can be pre-fabricated in the factory, making the on-site construction of the charging facility more convenient and efficient. In the embodiment of the present invention, the cloud platform can analyze and obtain the charging power demand information of the battery, and the charging pile master control system can allocate the charging power to the charging station where the battery is located according to the charging power demand information of the battery, realizing the power sharing and intelligent scheduling of the charging facilities, charging according to the charging power demand of the battery of the vehicle to be charged, improving the power utilization rate, and reducing the installed power under the same charging parameter requirements.

[0104] In an embodiment of the present invention, based on the predicted demand information of the charging power and the capacity of the target transformer, the number of the charging stations in the battery swap station is increased, making it more convenient and less costly to increase the charging stations.

[0105] It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity, the method embodiments are described as a series of action combinations, but those skilled in the art should be aware that the embodiments of the present invention are not limited by the order of the actions described, because according to the embodiments of the present invention, certain steps can be performed in other orders or simultaneously.
