[0005] The first switch module includes a first diode, a first relay, a second relay and a third relay, wherein a first end of the first relay is connected to the first AC end, a second end of the first relay is connected to the anode of the first diode, a cathode of the first diode is connected to the first end of the AC-DC conversion module, a first end of the second relay is connected to the first end of the first relay or the second end of the first relay, a second end of the second relay is connected to the cathode of the first diode, a first end of the third relay is connected to the second AC end, and a second end of the third relay is connected to the second end of the AC-DC conversion module;

[0006] The control module is used to control the states of the first relay, the second relay and the third relay so that the current of the power supply device switches from flowing through the first diode to flowing through the second relay.

[0007] In an embodiment of the present application, in the process of the current of the power supply device switching from flowing through the first diode to flowing through the second relay, the voltage across the second relay is clamped by the first diode, and no current shock is generated when the current of the power supply device passes through the second relay, and the second relay will not stick, thereby improving the safety of the power supply device.

[0008] Optionally, the control module is used to control the states of the first relay, the second relay and the third relay so that the current of the power supply device switches from flowing through the first diode to flowing through the second relay, including:

[0009] The control module is used to control the conduction timing of the first relay, the second relay and the third relay when the first AC end and the second AC end are connected to AC power, so that the power supply device is in a charging state, and the charging current of the power supply device is switched from flowing through the first diode to flowing through the second relay.

[0010] In the embodiment of the present application, the power supply device is in a charging state, that is, the power supply device charges the DC load through the AC-DC conversion module. The DC load may be a battery on a vehicle (for example, a power battery or a storage battery). The embodiment of the present application may be applied to Figures 1 to 4 Any power supply device.

[0011] When the power supply device charges the DC load through the AC-DC conversion module, the charging current of the power supply device can be switched from flowing through the first diode to flowing through the second relay by controlling the conduction timing of the first relay, the second relay and the third relay. In the process of switching the charging current of the power supply device from flowing through the first diode to flowing through the second relay, the voltage across the second relay is clamped by the first diode, and no current shock is generated when the charging current of the power supply device passes through the second relay, and the second relay does not stick, thereby improving the safety of the power supply device.

After the second relay S2 is energized, the current of the second relay S2 is transferred from the first diode D1, and there is no impact current; the second relay S2 will not stick.

[0157] See also Fig.11 , Fig.11 1 is a schematic diagram of the relay conduction timing of a power supply device entering the third discharge state provided by an embodiment of the present application. Fig.11 As shown, V1 is the voltage of the alternating current between the first end of the AC-DC conversion module 20 and the second end of the AC-DC conversion module 20 sampled by the first voltage sampling circuit. The frequency of the waveform of V1 can be the power frequency, and the power frequency can be 50 Hz. K4, K5, and K6 are the drive signals of the fourth relay S4, the fifth relay S5, and the sixth relay S6, respectively. Since the relay has a pull-in time, when the drive signal of the relay is switched from a low level to a high level, it will not be pulled in immediately, so when the drive signal of the relay is switched to a high level, the relay will not be pulled in immediately, but will be pulled in after a period of time (pull-in time). Exemplarily, the pull-in time of the fourth relay S4, the fifth relay S5, and the sixth relay S6 in the embodiment of the present application is 5-8 milliseconds (ms).

[0158] The control module 30 can detect the zero-crossing point of the positive half-wave or the negative half-wave of the alternating current V1 through the first voltage sampling circuit. The zero-crossing point of the positive half-wave of V1 is the moment when V1 passes through zero from the negative half-cycle to the positive half-cycle (e.g. Fig.11 The negative half-wave zero-crossing point of V1 is the moment when V1 passes through zero from the positive half-cycle to the negative half-cycle (as shown in the figure). Fig.11 time T3 as shown).

[0159] like Fig.11 As shown, at time T0, the control module 30 detects the zero crossing point of the positive half-wave of the AC voltage V1;

[0160] At time T1, the control module 30 sends drive signals K4 and K6 to the fourth relay S4 and the sixth relay S6; wherein 0≤T1-T0≤2ms;

[0161] At time T2, the fourth relay S4 and the sixth relay S6 are closed, and the second diode D2 is in the cut-off state;

[0162] At time T3, the AC voltage V1 begins to enter the negative half cycle of the sine wave, and the second diode D2 is turned on;

[0163] At time T4, the control module 30 sends a drive signal K5 to the fifth relay S5; wherein 0≤T4-T3≤2ms;

[0164] At time T5, the fifth relay S5 is closed, and the discharge current is switched to the fifth relay S5.

[0165] See also Fig.12 , Fig.12 It is a schematic diagram of a relay conduction timing simulation result of a power supply device entering a third discharge state provided in an embodiment of the present application. Fig.12 In the simulation, the Am2 current is switched from flowing through the fourth relay S4 to flowing through the fifth relay S5.

[0166] like Fig.12 As shown, the simulation results are: when the fourth relay S4 and the sixth relay S6 are energized, the second diode D2 is in the cut-off state, and the fourth relay S4 has no current. When the second diode D2 is turned on, since the voltage of V1 is near zero, there is no impact current, and the fourth relay S4 and the sixth relay S6 will not stick;

[0167] When the fifth relay S5 is energized, the voltage between the contacts is clamped by the second diode D2, and no arcing occurs. After the fifth relay S5 is energized, the current of the fifth relay S5 is transferred from the second diode D2, and there is no impact current; the fifth relay S5 will not stick.
