When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time.

[0025] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or suggesting their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features.

When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0026] Specifically, Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention proposes the following technical solution: a hybrid system battery module structure, comprising at least a charging system 10, a first system battery 20 and a second system battery 30 connected in series; the first system battery 20 comprises at least a first single cell 21, a second single cell 22 and a third single cell 23 connected in series in sequence; the second system battery 30 comprises at least a fourth single cell 31, and the fourth single cell 31 is connected in series with the charging system 10, the first single cell 21, the second single cell 22 and the third single cell 23; the first system battery 20 and the second system battery 30 are batteries of different systems.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment, the charging system 10 is one of a lead-acid battery charging system, a lithium battery charging system or a sodium battery charging system. In this embodiment, the charging system 10 is a lead-acid battery charging system. In other embodiments, according to actual use needs, the charging system 10 can also be a lithium battery charging system or a sodium battery charging system.

[0028] As a preferred embodiment, the first system battery cell 20 is a lithium battery system battery cell or a sodium battery system battery cell; the second system battery cell 30 is a lithium battery system battery cell or a sodium battery system battery cell.

[0029] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the first battery cell 20 is a lithium battery cell, the second battery cell 30 is a sodium battery cell. It is understood that in another embodiment, when the first battery cell 20 is a sodium battery cell, the second battery cell 30 is a lithium battery cell.

[0030] In other embodiments, three different system cells may be provided according to actual use needs, such as the first system cell 20 may be provided as a lithium battery system cell, the second system cell 30 may be provided as a sodium battery system cell, and the third system cell may be provided as a lead-acid battery system cell.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, the lithium battery system cell is one of a ternary lithium battery cell, a lithium iron phosphate battery cell or a lithium iron manganese phosphate battery cell. In this embodiment, the lithium battery system cell is a lithium iron phosphate battery cell. In other embodiments, according to the actual use needs, the lithium battery system cell can also be a ternary lithium battery cell or a lithium iron manganese phosphate battery cell.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the first battery cell 21, the second battery cell 22 and the third battery cell 23 all have the same structure, so as to facilitate the regulation of the charging voltage of each battery cell.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment, the charging voltage U1 of the first battery cell 21, the charging voltage U2 of the second battery cell 22, and the charging voltage U3 of the third battery cell 23 are all the same, so as to facilitate the regulation of the charging voltage of each battery cell.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, when the hybrid system battery module structure is in a charging state, the sum of the charging voltage U1 of the first single battery cell 21, the charging voltage U2 of the second single battery cell 22, the charging voltage U3 of the third single battery cell 23 and the charging voltage U4 of the fourth single battery cell 31 is equal to the charging voltage U of the charging system 10.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment, when the hybrid system battery module structure is in a charging state, 90% of the first SOC voltage ≤ the charging voltage U1 of the first single battery cell 21 / the charging voltage U2 of the second single battery cell 22 / the charging voltage U3 of the third single battery cell 23 ≤ 100% of the first SOC voltage (maximum charging voltage); the first SOC (i.e., State of Charge, indicating the state when the single battery cell is fully charged) voltage is the maximum charging voltage of the first single battery cell 21, the second single battery cell 22 or the third single battery cell 23.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, when the hybrid system battery module structure is in a charging state, 90% of the second SOC voltage ≤ the charging voltage U4 of the fourth single battery cell 31 ≤ 100% of the second SOC voltage (maximum charging voltage); the second SOC voltage is the maximum charging voltage of the fourth single battery cell 31.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, when 90% of the first SOC voltage ≤ the charging voltage U1 of the first single cell 21 / the charging voltage U2 of the second single cell 22 / the charging voltage U3 of the third single cell 23 ≤ 100% of the first SOC voltage, the capacity of the first system cell 20 is equal to the capacity of the second system cell 30, and the first SOC voltage is equal to the second SOC voltage.

[0038] Since the charging voltage of each single cell is always less than the maximum charging voltage of each single cell, there is no need for BMS protection monitoring. Since the charging voltage range of different systems is different, that is, U4 is not equal to U1, U2 or U3, and the proportion of the number of cells in different systems is also different, the voltage of U1+U2+U3+U4 is adjustable, which can be adjusted to the charging voltage U of the lead-acid battery charging system, so that the hybrid system cell module structure can adapt to the lead-acid battery charging system, and can save the BMS management system, effectively reducing costs.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment, when 90% of the first SOC voltage ≤ the charging voltage U1 of the first single cell 21 / the charging voltage U2 of the second single cell 22 / the charging voltage U3 of the third single cell 23 ≤ 100% of the first SOC voltage, if the capacity of the first system cell 20 - the capacity of the second system cell 30 = ΔQ (i.e., the capacity of the first system cell 20 is not equal to the capacity of the second system cell 30), then the initial capacity of the first system cell 20 - the initial capacity of the second system cell 30 = ΔQ, and when the hybrid system cell module structure is in a cycle state, the capacity attenuation rate of the first system cell 20 is equal to the capacity attenuation rate of the second system cell 30. In this way, it can be ensured that the charging voltage of each single cell of the hybrid system cell module structure is always within the allowable charging voltage range in the subsequent cycle use.

[0040] By combining and matching batteries of different systems, the present application can make the charging voltage of each single battery cell of the hybrid system battery cell module structure lower than the maximum charging voltage of the corresponding system battery cell during charging, so that the charging voltage of the obtained hybrid system battery cell module structure can be well adapted to the charging system of the lead-acid battery, and the BMS can be omitted, effectively reducing the cost of lead-to-lithium conversion. Through the structure of the present application, the trouble of replacing the charging system in the lead-to-lithium conversion can be avoided, which not only effectively improves the reusability of the original components, but also significantly improves the conversion efficiency of lead-to-lithium conversion, greatly reduces the use cost, has higher practicality and economy, and can be produced and used as a general product.
