Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of automobile technology, and in particular relates to a control device and method for failure of battery charging in a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] At present, when pure electric vehicles or plug-in hybrid vehicles are parked or in the high-voltage power-off state, if the battery power is low, the vehicle can actively apply high voltage to recharge the battery, thereby avoiding the phenomenon that the vehicle cannot start normally due to long-term power consumption of the battery (static current consumption or abnormal power consumption of the vehicle).

[0003] At present, when the industry starts charging, the whole vehicle controller will wake up, and during the charging process, the low-voltage load of the whole vehicle will be in an invalid power consumption state. For example, intelligent driving controller, instrument, host, seat controller, airbag controller and other controllers and loads that are not related to charging or high-voltage power-up. This state will increase the power consumption of DCDC output, and further increase the power consumption of the power battery.

[0004] Based on this, there is an urgent need to develop a control device and method for vehicle battery charging failure to effectively solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a control device for vehicle battery charging failure, and also to provide a control method for vehicle battery charging failure, so as to solve the problem of isolating and controlling the loads unrelated to the charging related functions during the charging process, thereby maximizing the reduction of low-voltage power consumption through the isolation control of the power supply circuit, thereby reducing the power consumption of the power battery and increasing the cruising range.

The circuit isolation execution module can isolate the low-voltage circuit of the entire vehicle. After isolation, the power supply circuit supplies power to electrical loads that are strongly related to the power replenishment function, and disconnects power supply to loads that are not related to the power replenishment function.

[0012] Furthermore, the conditions for charging include power supply status, vehicle speed, battery power status, fault status of a controller related to charging, power battery power status, and cabin door switch status.

[0030] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments:

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the control device for vehicle battery charging failure of the present invention includes a battery charging identification module, a charging circuit isolation control module, a communication module and a circuit isolation execution module integrated inside the housing.

[0032] The battery charging identification module is connected to the battery sensor. The battery sensor is connected to the battery, and can obtain the battery power information and transmit the information to the battery charging identification module. The battery charging identification module is connected to the charging circuit isolation control module and the communication module respectively, and can decide whether to execute the charging instruction according to the charging conditions, such as power supply status, vehicle speed, battery power status, charging-related controller fault status, power battery power status, and cabin door switch status.

[0033] The power replenishment circuit isolation control module is connected to the circuit isolation execution module. After the power replenishment is completed, the power replenishment isolation control module can control the circuit isolation execution module to complete the circuit closure.

[0034] The communication module is a CAN communication module or a LIN communication module, and communicates with multiple loads, including electrical loads that are strongly related to the power replenishment function and loads that are not related to the power replenishment function. The communication module can wake up the vehicle network before power failure, and send a disconnection instruction to the loads that are not related to the power replenishment function through a CAN message, so as to avoid the problem of loads reporting faults or recording fault codes when power is off.

[0035] The electrical loads strongly related to the power replenishment function synchronously consider safety factors, data upload requirements, user unlocking and other necessary loads, including BMS, HCU, door control, T-BOX, etc. The loads unrelated to the power replenishment function include seat controllers, intelligent driving controllers, radars, cameras, instruments, host computers, central control screens, HUDs, lighting systems, etc.

[0036] The loop isolation execution module is connected to the DCDC connected to the power battery. The loop isolation execution module includes high-power relays or MOS components, etc., which can be 1 group or 2 groups, considering reliability and functional safety requirements. The loop isolation execution module can isolate the low-voltage circuit of the whole vehicle. After isolation, the power supply circuit supplies power to electrical loads that are strongly related to the power replenishment function, and disconnects power to loads that are not related to the power replenishment function. The loop isolation execution module can also be integrated outside the housing.

[0037] When the electrical loads of the isolation circuit of the present invention are differentiated and set, all loads that are not related to the power supply function, safety, data upload, door unlocking, and user memory functions are isolated outside the power supply circuit. The present invention avoids the problem of false alarm failure caused by isolated power failure of the controller by isolating the control execution and recovery logic settings.

[0038] The control method for vehicle battery charging failure of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0039] 1. When the vehicle is stationary and the battery sensor identifies that the battery power is low, the battery charging identification module decides whether to execute the charging instruction based on the charging conditions, such as power supply status, vehicle speed, battery power status, charging-related controller fault status, power battery power status, and cabin door switch status;

[0040] 2. If the power replenishment command is executed, the circuit isolation execution module can isolate the low-voltage circuit of the vehicle, and the power supply circuit after isolation will supply power to the electrical loads related to the power replenishment function;

[0041] 3. Wake up the vehicle network and send disconnect instructions to irrelevant loads through CAN messages;

[0042] 4. After the low-voltage circuit of the vehicle is isolated, the loads not related to the power replenishment function are disconnected from the power supply.

[0043] 5. After the power replenishment is completed, the power replenishment isolation control module will control the loop isolation execution module to complete the loop closure and restore to the state before the power replenishment.

[0044] Note that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and the technical principles used. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and that various obvious changes, readjustments and substitutions can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in more detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may include more other equivalent embodiments without departing from the concept of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
