Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle charging technology, and in particular to a method and device for safe vehicle charging. Background Technology

[0002] Traditionally, when a car interacts with a charging station, two steps are required: plugging in the charging gun and swiping the card. When only the charging gun is plugged in without swiping the card, the European standard charging station may not send a CP (PWM voltage signal). This means that it is impossible to determine whether the charging gun is plugged in for fast or slow charging by combining the CP duty cycle. In other words, if the fast charging gun is plugged in at this time, and the charging station requires swiping the card before starting the charging process to output the CP duty cycle, then it is impossible to determine whether it is fast or slow charging when the card is not swiped, and no charging gun plugging signal will be output. However, at this time, the charging gun is actually plugged in, and the vehicle can still move, which can easily lead to the risk of "the gun is in the car but the car is not."

[0003] The above content is only used to help understand the technical solution of the present invention and does not represent an admission that the above content is prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a safe charging method and device for vehicles, aiming to solve the technical problem that when a car is not swiped for charging, it is impossible to determine whether it is fast charging or slow charging, and it will not output a charging gun signal, even though the charging gun is actually plugged in and the vehicle can still move, which easily leads to the risk of "the charging gun being plugged in while the car is moved".

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a safe charging method for vehicles, the safe charging method comprising:

[0006] When a vehicle needs to be charged, detect whether the target resistance value output by the charging pile exists when the discharge gun is connected to the vehicle.

[0007] If so, the CCOUT hardwired signal is output to the vehicle charger, and the target resistance value is reported to the battery management system via CAN, so that the battery management system can control the vehicle to prevent it from starting and perform safe charging based on the target resistance value through the PDCU.

[0008] In one embodiment, if so, then after the step of outputting a CCOUT hardwired signal to the on-board charger and reporting the target resistance value to the battery management system via CAN, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to prevent starting for safe charging based on the target resistance value via the PDCU, the method includes:

[0009] Obtain the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal output by the charging pile;

[0010] The target charging signal is determined based on the target resistance value and the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to charge according to the target charging signal.

[0011] In one embodiment, the target charging signal includes a slow charging signal.

[0014] In one embodiment, the target charging signal includes a fast charging signal. The step of determining the target charging signal based on the target resistance value and the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to charge according to the target charging signal, further includes:

[0015] When the target resistance value reaches the second preset resistance value condition and the PWM voltage signal duty cycle reaches the second preset duty cycle condition, the fast charging signal is obtained;

[0016] Based on the fast charging signal, the transmission of the CCOUT hardwire signal to the vehicle charger is stopped, and the CC2 hardwire signal and the A+ hardwire signal are transmitted to the battery management system. The fast charging signal is then sent to the battery management system via the CAN bus, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to charge according to the fast charging signal.

[0017] In one embodiment, after determining the target charging signal based on the target resistance value and the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to charge according to the target charging signal, the method further includes:

[0018] Detect the stop charging signal transmitted by the battery management system;

[0019] The hard-wire signal and the CAN transmission are maintained according to the stopped charging signal;

[0020] During the transmission of the hard-wired signal and the CAN signal, it is detected whether the target resistance value is received.

[0021] If not, the transmission of the hard-wired signal is stopped according to the stop charging signal, and a start signal is sent to the battery management system via the CAN bus, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to start via the PDCU according to the start signal.

[0022] In one embodiment, the target charging signal includes a slow charging stop signal, and the step of maintaining the hard-wired signal and the CAN transmission according to the stop charging signal includes:

[0023] When the slow charging stop signal is received from the battery management system, the CCOUT hardwire signal is continuously transmitted to the vehicle charger according to the slow charging stop signal, and the slow charging signal is continuously sent to the battery management system via the CAN bus.

[0024] In one embodiment, the target charging signal includes a fast charging stop signal, and the step of maintaining the hard-wired signal and the CAN transmission according to the stop charging signal further includes;

[0025] When the fast charging stop signal is received from the battery management system, the transmission of the A+ hard wire signal to the battery management system is stopped according to the fast charging stop signal, while the fast charging signal is still sent to the battery management system via the CAN bus.

[0026] In one embodiment, the target charging signal includes the slow charging stop signal, and the steps of stopping the transmission of the hard-wired signal and sending a start signal to the battery management system via the CAN according to the stop charging signal if not, include:

[0027] When the target resistance value is not received, the transmission of the CCOUT hardwire signal to the vehicle charger and the transmission of the start signal to the battery management system via the CAN bus are stopped according to the slow charging stop signal.

[0028] In one embodiment, the target charging signal includes the fast charging stop signal, and the step of stopping the transmission of the hard-wired signal and sending a start signal to the battery management system via the CAN according to the stop charging signal if not, further includes;

[0029] When the target resistance value is not received, the transmission of the CC2 hard-wire signal to the battery management system and the transmission of the start signal to the battery management system via the CAN bus are stopped according to the fast charging stop signal.

[0030] Furthermore, to achieve the above objectives, the present invention also proposes a vehicle safe charging device, the device comprising: a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, the computer program being configured to implement the steps of the vehicle safe charging method as described above.

[0031] One or more technical solutions proposed in this invention have at least the following technical effects:

[0032] This invention detects the target resistance value output by the charging pile when a vehicle needs charging; if so, it outputs a CCOUT hardwire signal to the on-board charger and reports the target resistance value to the battery management system via CAN. The battery management system then uses the PDCU to control the vehicle to prevent it from starting and safely charge based on the target resistance value. Because this invention advances the CAN reporting of the target resistance value output by the charging pile—reporting the resistance value as soon as the charging gun is plugged in—it locks the vehicle and prevents it from starting, avoiding the situation where the charging gun is moved while the vehicle is in use. Compared to existing technologies, this invention only requires plugging in the charging gun and does not require swiping a card, thus preventing the vehicle from starting before charging.

[0040] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the equipment structure of the hardware operating environment involved in the motor overcurrent protection method in this embodiment of the invention.

[0041] The objectives, features, and advantages of this invention will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation

[0042] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0043] To better understand the technical solution of the present invention, a detailed description will be provided below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0044] The main solution of this invention is: when the vehicle needs to interact with the charging pile for charging, after detecting that the discharge gun is connected to the vehicle's charging socket, the target resistance value output by the charging pile is obtained, and the time for reporting the target resistance value via CAN is advanced, thereby locking the vehicle and preventing it from starting, thus avoiding the situation where the "gun is in the car but the car is moved".

[0045] In this embodiment, for ease of description, the following description will focus on identifying the EVCC chip.

[0046] Because current technology requires two steps for a car to interact with a charging station during charging: plugging in the charging gun and swiping the card, if only the charging gun is plugged in without swiping the card, the European standard charging station may not send a CP (Charging Point) signal. This means that it is impossible to determine whether the charging gun is plugged in for fast or slow charging by combining the CP duty cycle. In other words, if the fast charging gun is plugged in at this time, and the charging station requires swiping the card before starting the charging process to output the CP duty cycle, then it is impossible to determine whether it is fast or slow charging when the card is not swiped, and no charging gun plugging signal will be output. However, at this time, the charging gun is actually plugged in, and the vehicle can still move, which can easily lead to the risk of "the gun is in the car but the car is not moving".

[0047] This invention provides a solution that locks the vehicle and prevents it from starting by advancing the time when the CAN bus reports the target resistance value output by the charging pile. That is, the resistance value is reported as soon as the charging gun is plugged in. This avoids the situation where the charging gun is plugged in but the vehicle is moved. Compared with the prior art, this invention only requires plugging in the charging gun and does not require swiping a card, so that the vehicle can be prevented from starting before charging.

[0048] It should be noted that the executing entity in this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication, and program execution functions, such as a tablet computer, personal computer, or mobile phone, or an electronic device capable of performing the above functions. The following description uses the aforementioned EVCC chip as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the subsequent embodiments.

[0049] Based on this, embodiments of the present invention provide a method for safe charging of vehicles, referring to... Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the first embodiment of the vehicle safe charging method of the present invention.

[0050] In this embodiment, the vehicle safe charging method includes steps S10 to S20:

[0051] Step S10: When the vehicle needs to be charged, detect whether there is a target resistance value output by the charging pile when the discharge gun is connected to the vehicle.

[0052] It should be noted that the aforementioned charging piles can be power supply devices that provide electrical energy to vehicles.

[0053] It should be noted that the above-mentioned discharge gun is a device for transmitting electrical energy when the above-mentioned charging pile charges the vehicle.

[0054] It should be noted that the target resistance value mentioned above can be the resistance value of the discharge gun head.

[0055] It is understandable that the charging piles and discharge guns mentioned above may differ depending on the vehicle being charged, and the appropriate option can be selected based on the actual situation.

[0056] It is understood that in this invention, the target resistance values ​​of 100Ω, 220Ω and 680Ω are slow charging resistance values, and the target resistance value of 1500Ω is a fast charging resistance value.

[0057] In practice, when a vehicle needs to be charged, the discharge gun in the charging pile must first be connected to the vehicle's charging socket. After connection, it is necessary to check whether the target resistance value output by the charging pile exists. In fact, checking whether the target resistance value exists is to confirm that the discharge gun and the vehicle's charging socket have been successfully connected.

[0058] Step S20: If yes, output the CCOUT hardwire signal to the vehicle charger and report the target resistance value to the battery management system via CAN, so that the battery management system can control the vehicle to prevent starting and perform safe charging based on the target resistance value via the PDCU.

[0059] It should be noted that the CCOUT hardwired signal mentioned above can be a signal transmitted directly through a physical wire;

[0060] It should be noted that the above-mentioned vehicle charger can convert the AC power from the AC charging pile into the DC power required by the power battery, thereby enabling the charging of the power battery.

[0061] It should be noted that the CAN protocol mentioned above can be a controller area network that allows multiple devices to communicate within the same network.

[0062] It should be noted that the aforementioned battery management system is a component that monitors and manages the charging and discharging process of the battery pack, ensuring battery safety, extending battery life, and optimizing battery performance.

[0063] It should be noted that the aforementioned PDCU can be a module with power distribution and control technology.

[0064] It is understood that the CCOUT hardwire mentioned above is used in this invention to transmit the signal of the vehicle charger to the EVCC chip.

[0065] It is understood that the CAN bus described above can report information from the EVCC chip to the battery management system described above in this invention.

[0066] Understandably, the aforementioned battery management system is used in this invention to monitor and manage the vehicle during slow and fast charging.

[0067] Understandably, the aforementioned PDCU is used in this invention to control whether the vehicle is allowed to start.

[0068] In a specific implementation, when the EVCC chip detects the target value output by the charging pile, it immediately outputs the CCOUT hard-wired signal to the on-board charger and reports the target resistance value to the battery management system via the CAN bus. After receiving the target resistance value, the battery management system controls the vehicle to be prevented from starting via the PDCU to ensure that the vehicle has a safe charging environment.

[0069] This embodiment provides a safe charging method for vehicles. By detecting whether the target resistance value output by the charging pile is received when the discharge gun is connected to the vehicle, the target resistance value is reported to the battery management system via the CAN bus in advance. This allows the battery management system to control the vehicle to be prevented from starting via the PDCU, thus providing a safe charging environment for the vehicle. Therefore, compared with the prior art, this invention does not require swiping a card after the gun is plugged in to transmit the target resistance value to the battery management system. It can report the target resistance value immediately after the gun is plugged in, avoiding the situation where the gun is moved while the vehicle is in use.

[0070] Based on the first embodiment of the present invention, in the second embodiment of the present invention, the same or similar content as in the first embodiment can be referred to the above description, and will not be repeated hereafter. Based on this, please refer to... Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the second embodiment of the vehicle safe charging method of the present invention.

[0071] In one feasible implementation, step S20 may be followed by steps S201 to S202:

[0072] Step S201: Obtain the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal output by the charging pile.

[0073] It should be noted that the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal mentioned above can be used as an auxiliary to the target resistance value to determine the voltage signal for slow charging and fast charging.

[0074] Understandably, when the duty cycle of the aforementioned PWM voltage signal is between 3% and 7%, it is considered fast charging, and when the duty cycle of the aforementioned PWM voltage signal is between 8% and 97%, it is considered slow charging.

[0075] In a specific implementation, after the EVCC chip receives the target resistance value, the charging pile will output a PWM voltage signal duty cycle to the EVCC chip through the discharge gun.

[0076] Step S202: Determine the target charging signal based on the target resistance value and the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to charge according to the target charging signal.

[0077] It should be noted that the target charging signal mentioned above can be either a slow charging signal or a fast charging signal.

[0078] Understandably, the aforementioned battery management system will control the vehicle to charge in different ways based on different target charging signals.

[0079] In a specific implementation, after receiving the target resistance value and the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal, the EVCC chip determines the target charging signal so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to perform fast charging or slow charging according to the target charging signal.

[0080] Based on the second embodiment of the present invention, in the third embodiment of the present invention, the same or similar content as in the second embodiment can be referred to the above description, and will not be repeated hereafter. Based on this, please refer to... Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the third embodiment of the vehicle safe charging method of the present invention.

[0081] In this embodiment, step S202 includes steps S2021 to S2022:

[0082] Step S2021: When the target resistance value reaches the first preset resistance value condition and the PWM voltage signal duty cycle reaches the first preset duty cycle condition, the slow charging signal is obtained.

[0083] It should be noted that the first preset resistance value can be 100Ω, 220Ω, or 680Ω.

[0084] It should be noted that the first preset duty cycle condition mentioned above can be any duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal within the range of 8% to 97%.

[0085] It should be noted that the aforementioned slow charging signal can be the signal for the charging pile and the vehicle to perform a charging handshake.

[0086] It is understood that, in this invention, the first preset resistance condition is a resistance condition that satisfies the vehicle being in slow charging mode.

[0087] It is understood that, in this invention, the first preset duty cycle condition is the duty cycle condition that satisfies the vehicle being in slow charging mode.

[0088] It is understood that, in this invention, the aforementioned slow charging signal can only be acquired when both the target resistance value reaches the first preset resistance value and the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal reaches the first preset duty cycle.

[0089] In a specific implementation, when the target resistance value obtained by the EVCC chip is any one of 100Ω, 220Ω or 680Ω and the duty cycle of the obtained PWM voltage signal is within 8% to 97%, the vehicle is considered to have entered slow charging mode, and the slow charging signal is obtained at this time.

[0090] Step S2022: Based on the slow charging signal, continuously transmit the CCOUT hardwire signal to the vehicle charger, and send the slow charging signal to the battery management system via the CAN bus, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to charge according to the slow charging signal.

[0091] In a specific implementation, based on the aforementioned slow charging signal, the previous operation of transmitting the CCOUT hard-wire signal to the vehicle charger when the target resistance value was detected is maintained. At the same time, the slow charging signal is sent to the battery management system via the CAN bus, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to charge according to the slow charging signal.

[0092] Based on the third embodiment of the present invention, in the fourth embodiment of the present invention, the contents that are the same as or similar to those in the third embodiment can be referred to the above description, and will not be repeated hereafter. Based on this, please refer to... Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating the fourth embodiment of the vehicle safe charging method of the present invention.

[0093] In this embodiment, step S202 further includes steps S2023 to S2024:

[0094] Step S2023: When the target resistance value reaches the second preset resistance value condition and the PWM voltage signal duty cycle reaches the second preset duty cycle condition, the fast charging signal is obtained.

[0095] It should be noted that the second preset resistance value condition mentioned above can be 1500Ω;

[0096] It should be noted that the second preset duty cycle condition mentioned above can be any duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal within the range of 3% to 7%.

[0097] It should be noted that the aforementioned fast charging signal can be the signal for the charging pile and the vehicle to perform a charging handshake.

[0098] It is understood that, in this invention, the aforementioned second preset resistance condition is a resistance condition that satisfies the vehicle being in fast charging mode.

[0099] It is understood that, in this invention, the aforementioned second preset duty cycle condition is a duty cycle condition that satisfies the vehicle being in fast charging mode.

[0100] It is understood that, in this invention, the fast charging signal can only be acquired when both the target resistance value reaches the second preset resistance value and the duty cycle of the PWM voltage signal reaches the second preset duty cycle.

[0101] In a specific implementation, when the target resistance value obtained by the EVCC chip is 1500Ω and the duty cycle of the obtained PWM voltage signal is within 3% to 7%, the vehicle is considered to have entered fast charging mode, and the fast charging signal is obtained at this time.

[0102] Step S2024: Based on the fast charging signal, stop transmitting the CCOUT hardwire signal to the vehicle charger, transmit the CC2 hardwire signal and the A+ hardwire signal to the battery management system, and send the fast charging signal to the battery management system via the CAN bus, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to charge according to the fast charging signal.

[0103] It should be noted that the CC2 hardwired signal mentioned above can be a signal transmitted directly through a physical wire;

[0104] It should be noted that the aforementioned A+2 hard-wired signal can be a signal transmitted directly through a physical conductor.

[0105] It is understood that, in this invention, the aforementioned CC2 hard-wired signal is used to confirm the connection between the charging pile and the vehicle.

[0106] It is understood that, in this invention, the aforementioned A+ hard-wired signal is used to wake up the aforementioned battery management system or other control unit;

[0107] Understandably, the aforementioned CC2 hard-wired signal and A+ hard-wired signal ensure stable communication and control during the charging process.

[0108] In a specific implementation, based on the fast charging signal, the transmission of the CCOUT hard wire signal to the on-board charger is stopped, while the CC2 hard wire signal and the A+ hard wire signal are transmitted to the battery management system. The fast charging signal is then sent to the battery management system via the CAN bus, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to charge according to the fast charging signal.

[0109] In one possible implementation, steps S202 may be followed by steps S203' to S206':

[0110] Step S203': Detect the stop charging signal transmitted by the battery management system.

[0111] It should be noted that the above-mentioned charging stop signal can be either a slow charging stop signal or a fast charging stop signal.

[0112] It is understood that, in this invention, the aforementioned stop charging signal is a signal transmitted from the battery management system to the EVCC chip when the vehicle needs to perform a stop charging operation after charging is completed.

[0113] In practice, when the vehicle is fully charged, it needs to stop charging. At this time, the battery management system will transmit the stop charging signal to the EVCC chip.

[0114] For example, to help understand the implementation process of the vehicle safe charging method obtained by combining this embodiment with the above-described embodiment two, please refer to... Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a simplified flowchart illustrating the vehicle safe charging method provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Specifically:

[0115] Step S204': Maintain the hard-wired signal and the CAN transmission according to the stop charging signal.

[0116] It should be noted that the above hard-wired signal can be the CCOUT hard-wired signal, the CC2 hard-wired signal, or the A+ hard-wired signal;

[0117] It should be noted that the CAN transmission mentioned above can be either the slow charging signal transmission or the fast charging signal transmission.

[0118] Understandably, the hard-wired signals and CAN transmissions that need to be maintained will differ depending on the different charging stop signals mentioned above.

[0119] In practice, the EVCC chip will maintain different hard-wired signals and CAN transmissions according to the specific stop charging signal, ensuring that the vehicle remains in an unstartable state even after charging is complete and the discharge gun has not yet left the vehicle.

[0120] Step S205': During the transmission of the hard-wired signal and the CAN, detect whether the target resistance value is received.

[0121] In a specific implementation, during the transmission of the aforementioned hard-wired signal and the aforementioned CAN, it is detected whether the aforementioned target resistance value is received, that is, whether the aforementioned discharge gun is removed from the vehicle's charging socket after charging is completed, and whether the vehicle is completely separated from the aforementioned charging pile.

[0122] Step S206': If not, then stop the transmission of the hard-wired signal and the CAN according to the stop charging signal, and send a start signal to the battery management system so that the battery management system can control the vehicle to start through the PDCU according to the start signal.

[0123] It should be noted that the above-mentioned start signal can be a signal indicating that the vehicle has finished charging.

[0124] In a specific implementation, when the EVCC chip does not detect the target resistance value, it means that the vehicle has been completely separated from the charging pile. At this time, the transmission of the hard-wired signal is stopped according to the stop charging signal, and the start signal is sent to the battery management system via the CAN bus, so that the battery management system controls the vehicle to start according to the start signal via the PDCU.

[0125] In this embodiment, step S204' includes step S2041':

[0126] Step S2041': When the slow charging stop signal transmitted by the battery management system is received, the CCOUT hardwire signal is continuously transmitted to the vehicle charger according to the slow charging stop signal, and the slow charging signal is continuously transmitted to the battery management system via the CAN bus.

[0127] It should be noted that the aforementioned slow charging stop signal indicates that the vehicle has completed slow charging.

[0128] In the specific implementation, when the slow charging stop signal transmitted by the battery management system is received, it means that the vehicle has been fully charged in slow charging mode. However, the vehicle has not yet been separated from the charging pile. Therefore, it is necessary to continue transmitting the CCOUT hard wire signal to the on-board charger according to the slow charging stop signal, and continue to send the slow charging signal to the battery management system through the CAN bus. The purpose is to ensure that the vehicle cannot be started when the discharge gun has not yet left the vehicle.

[0129] In this embodiment, step S204' further includes step S2042':

[0130] Step S2042': When the fast charging stop signal transmitted by the battery management system is received, the transmission of the A+ hard wire signal to the battery management system is stopped according to the fast charging stop signal, while the fast charging signal is still transmitted to the battery management system via the CAN bus.

[0131] It should be noted that the above-mentioned fast charging stop signal is a signal that the vehicle has completed fast charging.

[0132] In the specific implementation, when the fast charging stop signal transmitted by the battery management system is received, it means that the vehicle has been fully charged in fast charging mode. However, the vehicle has not yet been separated from the charging pile. Therefore, it is necessary to stop transmitting the A+ hard wire signal to the battery management system according to the fast charging stop signal, and continue to send the fast charging signal to the battery management system through the CAN bus. The purpose is to ensure that the vehicle cannot be started when the discharge gun has not yet left the vehicle.

[0133] In this embodiment, step S206' includes step S2061':
