Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of charging control technology, and in particular to a charging pile control method, device, storage medium and computer equipment. Background Art
[0002] At present, in some old communities, dormitory areas and rural areas, the deployment of charging piles is facing many challenges due to the structural limitations of the power grid left over from history and the lagging infrastructure update. Specifically, such areas often fail to carry out the necessary power grid transformation at the beginning of the installation of charging piles. In addition, the substations are scattered and far away, which limits the efficiency of power transmission. In addition, these charging piles are often lacking in integration with IoT technology during design and deployment, and are not equipped with facilities for real-time collection and monitoring of user power. Therefore, the charging piles deployed in such areas generally lack the ability to automatically adjust power.
[0003] During peak hours of electricity demand, due to the lack of automatic power regulation capabilities of charging piles, excessive power resources may be consumed during the charging process, resulting in a sharp increase in the local grid load, which in turn causes a voltage drop. This not only seriously restricts the charging efficiency of new energy equipment such as electric vehicles, leading to frequent charging interruptions or failures, but may also cause household appliances to not work properly. In addition, due to the high power load of the charging piles, it may also cause line overloads, increase the risk of fire, and thus pose a safety hazard. Summary of the invention

[0036] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0037] In some old communities, dormitory areas and rural areas, due to historical reasons, the grid transformation has not been followed up in time or the substation is located in a remote area. In addition, the charging piles are often not connected to the Internet of Things or lack a user power collection system when they are installed. These charging piles lack the ability to automatically adjust power. During peak power demand periods, charging piles may output high power without restriction, resulting in a sudden drop in local voltage, which not only affects the charging efficiency of the charging piles, but may also cause charging interruptions or household appliances to be unusable due to unstable voltage. More seriously, excessive loads may also cause line overheating, increasing the risk of safety accidents such as fires.
[0038] In order to solve the above problems, the prior art proposes a technical solution of installing power collection equipment to monitor and regulate the power output of the charging pile. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the above technical solution collects the total power of the household and dynamically adjusts the power of the charging pile according to the preset maximum power limit of the household to prevent overload. However, the above technical solution requires a preset maximum power for each charging pile, which increases the complexity of charging pile deployment and configuration; secondly, the installation of dedicated power collection equipment also increases additional hardware costs; thirdly, the charging pile needs to have the ability to communicate with the power collection equipment, which further increases the overall cost of charging pile installation.
[0039] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present application provides a charging pile control method. The method uses the built-in input voltage detection function of the charging pile to enable the charging pile to autonomously monitor the power grid status and dynamically adjust its output power accordingly. The above method can not only effectively avoid the voltage fluctuation problem caused by excessive charging power and ensure the normal use of household appliances, but also reduce the safety hazards caused by overload.
[0040] Based on the above ideas, in one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, a charging pile control method is provided, and the method is applied to a control device inside a charging pile as an example for explanation, comprising the following steps: when the charging pile is in a charging state, the charging voltage of the charging pile is monitored in real time, and the charging current of the charging pile is dynamically adjusted based on the charging voltage of the charging pile, wherein the adjustment range of the charging current is between the basic current and the rated current, or the charging current is adjusted to zero to control the charging pile to suspend charging. The present invention uses the maximum current that the power grid can withstand as much as possible for charging through cyclic detection, thereby improving the charging efficiency.
[0041] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned charging pile control method can be implemented by a control device inside the charging pile, the charging voltage of the charging pile can be collected by a voltage detection device provided inside the charging pile, and the charging current of the charging pile can be collected by a current detection device provided inside the charging pile, and the control device can dynamically adjust the charging current based on the collected charging current based on the detection result of the charging voltage. Among them, the principle of adjusting the charging current after collecting it is: during the charging process, the charging pile needs to provide a certain current capacity to the load (such as an electric vehicle), and the load will decide how much current to charge according to its own conditions. At different times, under different states of the load, under different current capacities provided by the charging pile, the decision of the load may be different, and the decision of different loads is also different, and the current flows from the charging pile to the load, and the current measured on the charging pile is consistent with the current on the load. Therefore, by sampling the charging current of the charging pile, the actual charging current of the charging pile can be measured, and then the charging current can be dynamically adjusted between the basic current and the rated current according to the actual collected charging current, thereby ensuring the power safety of the charging pile and the smooth implementation of the charging process.
[0042] Specifically, in the charging state, the charging current I of the charging pile can be adjusted in real time by monitoring the charging voltage U of the charging pile, wherein the adjustment range of the charging current is between the basic current Imin and the rated current Imax, or directly adjusted to 0, that is, the charging pile is controlled to suspend charging. In this embodiment, the basic current is the minimum charging current defined in the charging standard, for example, 6A, and the rated current is the rated current defined by the charging pile. It should be noted that the basic circuit Imin and the rated current Imax are pre-set by the control device inside the charging pile. The regulations of different countries or regions are different, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0043] Furthermore, during the charging process, when it is detected that the charging voltage of the power grid fluctuates greatly, the size of the charging current can be actively adjusted so that the charging voltage and charging power of the power grid can be maintained in a relatively balanced state. This balanced state runs through the entire charging process of the charging pile, so that the charging pile can guarantee the basic living electricity consumption of users while ensuring the charging efficiency, and ensure the safety of electricity use. When it is detected through the charging voltage that the quality of the power grid is no longer suitable for continued charging, such as when it is detected that the charging voltage has dropped to a certain range, the charging pile can be controlled to suspend charging to prevent the voltage from suddenly dropping and causing hidden dangers to electricity use. In some old communities, dormitory areas, rural areas and other power use scenarios, the large fluctuations in voltage with current are often caused by the aging of the transmission line or the insufficient rated power of the transmission line. The above method can be used to dynamically adjust the charging power of the charging pile to ensure the safety of users' electricity use.
[0044] The technical solution provided by the above embodiment monitors the charging voltage of the charging pile in real time when the charging pile is in the charging state, and dynamically adjusts the charging current of the charging pile between the basic current and the rated current based on the charging voltage of the charging pile, or adjusts the charging current to zero to control the charging pile to suspend charging. The above method can realize automatic adjustment of charging power without external power collection equipment, ensure the basic living electricity and electricity safety of users, avoid the problem of charging failure caused by voltage drop, and realize efficient charging even when the power grid quality is poor. The above method does not require any external power collection device or equipment, effectively improves the safety and reliability of the system, and at the same time reduces the overall cost and installation complexity of the charging pile.
[0045] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the method for dynamically adjusting the charging current of the charging pile can be implemented in the following manner: when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to a preset safety voltage threshold, the charging current is controlled to be dynamically adjusted between the basic current and the rated current; when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the safety voltage threshold, the charging current is controlled to be zero so that the charging pile suspends charging.
[0046] Specifically, the safety voltage threshold can be set according to the actual situation of the charging pile. For example, the safety voltage threshold can be set to 82% of the rated voltage of the charging pile. In this embodiment, when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the safety voltage threshold, it indicates that the voltage quality of the power grid is no longer suitable for charging, and continued charging may cause dangerous conditions such as voltage drops. Therefore, when it is detected that the charging voltage is lower than the safety voltage threshold, the charging pile can be controlled to suspend charging to ensure the safety of electricity use. Accordingly, when the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the preset safety voltage threshold, the current value of the charging current can still be adjusted in real time according to the monitoring of the charging voltage. Dynamic adjustment is performed between the basic current and the rated current, so that the charging voltage and charging power of the power grid can be maintained in a relatively balanced state, thereby ensuring the safety of electricity use.
[0047] In one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the method for controlling the charging current to dynamically adjust between the basic current and the rated current can be implemented in the following manner: cyclically executing the following method: when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than the preset current increasing voltage threshold for a period exceeding a first preset period, detecting whether the charging current is less than the rated current, wherein the current increasing voltage threshold is greater than the safety voltage threshold; if the charging current is less than the rated current, increasing the charging current until the charging current reaches the rated current.
[0048] Specifically, the current-increasing voltage threshold can be set according to the actual situation of the charging pile. For example, the current-increasing voltage threshold can be set to 87% of the rated voltage of the charging pile. When it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than the current-increasing voltage threshold, it indicates that the quality of the power grid can withstand the charging behavior of the charging pile at this time, and the charging current can be appropriately increased to improve the charging efficiency. Based on this, the setting value of the current-increasing voltage threshold should be greater than the safe voltage threshold used to control the charging pile to suspend charging. In this embodiment, the current value of the charging current can be cyclically adjusted based on the detection value of the charging voltage. For example, each time it is detected that the duration of the charging voltage greater than the current-increasing voltage threshold exceeds the first preset duration, and the charging current is less than the rated current, the charging current can be increased according to the preset step size, for example, the charging current is increased by 1A each time until the charging current increases to the rated current. It is understandable that the increase in the charging current can also be determined according to the detection value of the charging voltage, or according to the relationship between the detection value of the charging voltage and the threshold, or according to other methods. The duration of the first preset time can be set according to actual conditions, for example, set to 3 minutes. The setting of the preset time is used to prevent frequent adjustments from causing charging failures, and the preset time can also be set according to the voltage threshold to adjust the frequency. This embodiment is not specifically limited here. The above method can improve the charging efficiency of the charging pile while ensuring the safety of the user.
[0049] In the above embodiment, before adjusting the charging current, it is necessary to first sample the charging current of the charging pile through the current detection device, and then add the charging current to the sampled result of the charging current and output it to the load. The purpose of current sampling is to determine whether the charging current I is less than the rated current Imax based on the current value actually measured on the charging pile. If it is detected that the charging current I is less than the rated current Imax, the charging current continues to be increased, that is, the current capacity is increased to the load; if it is detected that the charging current I is greater than or equal to the rated current Imax, the charging current is set to the rated current to ensure the safety of the charging pile.
[0050] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the method for controlling the charging current to dynamically adjust between the basic current and the rated current can also be implemented in the following way: looping the following method: when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the safety voltage threshold, and is less than or equal to the preset current-increasing voltage threshold for a period exceeding a second preset period, detecting whether the charging current is greater than or equal to the basic current, wherein the current-increasing voltage threshold is greater than the safety voltage threshold; if the charging current is greater than or equal to the basic current, keeping the charging current unchanged or reducing the charging current so that the charging current is greater than or equal to the basic current.
[0051] Specifically, both the safety voltage threshold and the current-increasing voltage threshold can be set according to the actual situation of the charging pile. For example, the safety voltage threshold can be set to 82% of the rated voltage of the charging pile, and the current-increasing voltage threshold can be set to 87% of the rated voltage of the charging pile. In this embodiment, when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than the safety voltage threshold, it indicates that the quality of the power grid can withstand the charging behavior of the charging pile at this time, but it is not suitable to increase the charging current, so as not to affect the safety of electricity use. At this time, the current value of the charging current can be cyclically adjusted based on the detection value of the charging voltage. For example, each time it is detected that the duration of the voltage greater than or equal to the safety voltage threshold and less than or equal to the current-increasing voltage threshold exceeds the second preset duration, and the charging current is greater than or equal to the basic current, the charging current is kept unchanged, or the charging current is gradually reduced according to a certain proportion or according to a preset step size, and at the same time, the charging current is ensured to be greater than or equal to the basic current. It is understandable that the reduction value of the charging current can also be determined according to the detection value of the charging voltage or other methods. The setting value of the second preset time can be set according to the actual situation, for example, it is set to 3 minutes. The setting of the preset time is used to prevent frequent adjustments from causing charging failures. The preset time can also be set according to the voltage threshold to adjust the frequency. This embodiment is not specifically limited. The above method can ensure the charging efficiency of the charging pile while ensuring the safety of the user.
[0052] In the above embodiment, before adjusting the charging current, it is also necessary to first sample the charging current of the charging pile through the current detection device, and then reduce the charging current or keep the charging current unchanged based on the sampling result of the charging current. The purpose of current sampling is to determine whether the charging current I is greater than or equal to the basic current Imin according to the current value actually measured on the charging pile. If it is detected that the charging current I is greater than or equal to the basic current Imin, the charging current is reduced or kept unchanged; if it is detected that the charging current I is less than the basic current Imin, the charging current is set to the basic current Imin to ensure that the charging process can be completed smoothly.
[0053] In one embodiment, Figure 6 As shown, the method for controlling the charging pile to suspend charging can be implemented in the following way: looping the following method: when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the safety voltage threshold for more than a third preset time, controlling the charging current to zero to suspend charging the charging pile.
[0054] Specifically, when it is detected that the duration of the charging voltage being less than the safety voltage threshold exceeds the third preset duration, it indicates that the voltage quality of the power grid is already very poor at this time, and this continuous deterioration is not a short-term instantaneous state, but lasts for a short period of time. At this time, continuing charging is likely to cause dangerous conditions such as voltage drops. Therefore, when it is detected that the charging voltage is lower than the safety voltage threshold for more than the third preset duration, the charging pile can be controlled to suspend charging to ensure the safety of electricity use. Among them, the setting value of the safety voltage threshold and the setting value of the third preset duration can be set according to actual conditions. For example, the safety voltage threshold can be set to 82% of the rated voltage of the charging pile, and the third preset duration can be set to 3 minutes, etc. The setting of the preset duration is used to prevent frequent adjustments from causing charging failures, and the preset duration can also be set according to the voltage threshold to adjust the frequency. This embodiment is not specifically limited here. Further, after controlling the charging pile to suspend charging, a warning message can be further issued, and the warning message can be displayed through a display device on the charging pile or through a user terminal or other devices to remind the user to update or upgrade the transmission line, thereby ensuring the safety of electricity use.
[0055] In one embodiment, Figure 7 As shown, after controlling the charging pile to suspend charging, the above-mentioned charging pile control method may further include the following steps: when the charging pile is in a suspended charging state, monitoring the charging voltage of the charging pile in real time; when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to a preset restart voltage threshold, restarting the charging, wherein the restart voltage threshold is greater than the safety voltage threshold; when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the restart voltage threshold, controlling the charging current to zero to keep the charging pile in a suspended charging state.
[0056] Specifically, the restart voltage threshold can be set according to the actual situation of the charging pile. For example, the restart voltage threshold can be set to 87% of the rated voltage of the charging pile. When it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the restart voltage threshold, it indicates that the quality of the power grid is slightly restored compared to the quality of the power grid when charging is suspended, and the charging behavior of the charging pile can be tolerated, and charging can be resumed. Correspondingly, when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the restart voltage threshold, it indicates that the quality of the power grid is still poor and not stable enough, and it is not suitable for resuming charging. Based on this, in order to ensure the safety of electricity use of the charging pile, the setting value of the restart voltage threshold should be greater than the safety voltage threshold used to control the charging pile to suspend charging. In this embodiment, in the state of suspending charging, the charging voltage of the charging pile can be monitored in real time, and when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the preset restart voltage threshold, the charging is restarted to ensure the charging efficiency. Correspondingly, when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the restart voltage threshold, the charging current is controlled to zero so that the charging pile remains in the suspended charging state, thereby ensuring the safety of electricity use.
[0057] In one embodiment, Figure 8 As shown, the method for restarting charging can be implemented in the following manner: looping the following method: when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the restart voltage threshold for a period exceeding a fourth preset period, controlling the charging pile to restart and charge with a basic current.
[0058] In this embodiment, in the state of suspending charging, the charging voltage of the charging pile can be detected cyclically. When it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the restart voltage threshold for a period of time exceeding the fourth preset time, it indicates that the quality of the power grid has recovered to a state where charging is possible and has been stable for a short period of time. At this time, the charging pile can be controlled to restart and charge with the basic current. Among them, controlling the charging pile to restart and charge with the basic current can ensure the safety of electricity use of the charging pile and reduce the load of the power grid. In this embodiment, the set value of the restart voltage threshold and the set value of the fourth preset time can be set according to actual conditions. For example, the restart voltage threshold can be set to 87% of the rated voltage of the charging pile, and the fourth preset time can be set to 3 minutes, etc. The setting of the preset time is used to prevent charging failures caused by frequent adjustments, and the preset time can also be set according to the voltage threshold to adjust the frequency. This embodiment is not specifically limited here.
[0059] In one embodiment, Fig. 9 As shown, before the charging pile is in the charging state, the above-mentioned charging pile control method may further include the following steps: in response to a charging instruction, reading the charging voltage of the charging pile; based on the charging voltage of the charging pile, setting the starting current of the charging pile, and controlling the charging pile to start and charge with the starting current, wherein the setting range of the starting current is between the base current and the rated current.
[0060] Specifically, the charging pile can start charging in response to a charging instruction, wherein the charging instruction can be sent by the user or automatically sent after detecting that the charging pile is connected to the load to be charged. This embodiment does not limit the sending method of the charging instruction. In this embodiment, the control device can read the charging voltage in the current state in response to the charging instruction, and set the starting current of the charging pile based on the charging voltage, and then control the charging pile to start and charge with the starting current. Among them, the setting value of the starting current is related to the voltage value of the charging voltage in the starting state. When the charging voltage is high and relatively stable, the starting current is also high, thereby improving the charging efficiency of the charging pile; when the charging voltage is low and not very stable, the starting current is also low, thereby ensuring the safety of the charging pile. In this embodiment, the setting value of the starting current and the mapping relationship between the starting current and the charging voltage can be set according to the actual situation, and the setting range is between the basic current and the rated current. The specific setting value and the mapping relationship are not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0061] In one embodiment, Fig.10 As shown, the method of controlling the charging pile to start and charge with a starting current can be implemented in the following manner: when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to a preset starting voltage threshold, the charging pile is controlled to start and charge with a rated current; when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the starting voltage threshold, the charging pile is controlled to start and charge with a basic current.
[0062] Specifically, the starting voltage threshold can be set according to the actual situation of the charging pile. For example, the starting voltage threshold can be set to 90% of the rated voltage of the charging pile. When it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the starting voltage threshold, it indicates that the quality of the power grid is good at this time, and charging can be started with a larger starting current to improve the charging efficiency; when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the starting voltage threshold, it indicates that the quality of the power grid is not very good at this time, and charging can be started with a smaller starting current to ensure the safety of electricity use. Based on this, the setting value of the starting voltage threshold should be greater than the safety voltage threshold used to control the charging pile to suspend charging. In this embodiment, in order to reduce the complexity of the starting process control, when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the preset starting voltage threshold, the charging pile can be controlled to start and charge with the rated current, and when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the starting voltage threshold, the charging pile can be controlled to start and charge with the basic current. Further, in the charging state, the charging voltage of the charging pile can be monitored in real time, and the charging current of the charging pile can be dynamically adjusted between the basic current and the rated current based on the charging voltage of the charging pile, or, when it is detected that the quality of the power grid is poor and charging cannot continue, the charging current is adjusted to zero to control the charging pile to suspend charging. In this embodiment, when it is detected that the charging voltage in the starting state is lower than the safety voltage threshold, it is still necessary to start charging with the basic current, and monitor the charging voltage in real time during the charging process. When it is detected that the charging voltage does not meet the charging conditions, the charging pile is controlled to suspend charging to ensure electricity safety.
[0063] Further, as a refinement and extension of the specific implementation of the above embodiment, in order to fully illustrate the specific implementation process of this embodiment, a charging pile control method is provided, the method comprising:
[0064] Step 1: In response to a charging instruction, read the charging voltage of the charging pile.
[0065] Step 2: When it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the preset starting voltage threshold, the charging pile is controlled to start and charge with the rated current; when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the starting voltage threshold, the charging pile is controlled to start and charge with the basic current.
[0066] Loop through steps 3 to 6:
[0067] Step 3: When the charging pile is in the charging state, monitor the charging voltage of the charging pile in real time.
[0068] Step 4: when it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than the preset current-increasing voltage threshold for a period exceeding a first preset period and the charging current is less than the rated current, increase the charging current until the charging current reaches the rated current.
[0069] Step 5: When it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the safety voltage threshold, the time when it is less than or equal to the current increase voltage threshold exceeds the second preset time, and the charging current is greater than or equal to the basic current, the charging current is kept unchanged or reduced so that the charging current is greater than or equal to the basic current.
[0070] Step 6: When it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the safety voltage threshold for a period exceeding a third preset period, the charging current is controlled to be zero so that the charging pile suspends charging.
[0071] Loop through steps 7 to 9:
[0072] Step 7: When the charging pile is in a suspended charging state, monitor the charging voltage of the charging pile in real time.
[0073] Step 8: When it is detected that the charging voltage is greater than or equal to the restart voltage threshold for a period exceeding a fourth preset period, the charging pile is controlled to restart and charge with a basic current.
[0074] Step nine: when it is detected that the charging voltage is less than the restart voltage threshold, the charging current is controlled to be zero so that the charging pile remains in a suspended charging state.
[0075] By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the automatic adjustment of charging power can be achieved without external power collection equipment. The process of automatic power adjustment runs through the entire process of starting charging, charging, pausing charging, and restarting charging, so that the user's basic living electricity and electricity safety can be guaranteed during the entire charging process, avoiding the problem of charging failure caused by voltage drop, and achieving efficient charging even when the power grid quality is poor. The above method does not require any external power collection device or equipment, effectively improves the safety and reliability of the system, and at the same time reduces the overall cost and installation complexity of the charging pile.
