[0060] The second bridge arm comprises an upper bridge arm K2 and a lower bridge arm K4 connected in series, and the second bridge arm is connected in parallel with the first bridge arm.
[0061] In a preferred implementation, the upper half bridge arm and the lower half bridge arm of the first bridge arm are both relays or controllable switch tubes; wherein, when the controllable switch tube contains a diode, the upper half bridge arm and the lower half bridge arm of the first bridge arm are connected in series in the same direction, and the diodes of the upper half bridge arm and the lower half bridge arm of the first bridge arm are in the same direction.
[0062] In a preferred embodiment, the upper half bridge arm and the lower half bridge arm of the second bridge arm are both relays or controllable switch tubes. Wherein, when the controllable switch tube contains a diode, the upper half bridge arm and the lower half bridge arm of the second bridge arm are connected in series in the same direction, and the diodes of the upper half bridge arm and the lower half bridge arm of the second bridge arm are connected in the same direction.

[0064] The upper bridge arm K2 and the lower bridge arm K4 of the second bridge arm are both controllable switch tubes with anti-parallel diodes, and the upper bridge arm K2 and the lower bridge arm K4 of the second bridge arm are connected in series in the same direction.
[0065] Among them, Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, one output end of the bidirectional conversion circuit is connected to a connection point between the upper half bridge arm K1 and the lower half bridge arm K3 of the first bridge arm; the other output end of the bidirectional conversion circuit is connected to a connection point between the upper half bridge arm K2 and the lower half bridge arm K4 of the second bridge arm;

[0067] Regarding the use principle of the polarity switching circuit of the present invention, in the first working state, the upper half of the first bridge arm and the lower half of the second bridge arm are turned on, and the lower half of the first bridge arm and the upper half of the second bridge arm are disconnected, so as to output a positive voltage to the battery switch circuit. In the second working state, the lower half of the first bridge arm and the upper half of the second bridge arm are turned on, and the upper half of the first bridge arm and the lower half of the second bridge arm are disconnected, so as to output a negative voltage to the battery switch circuit.
[0068] In a preferred implementation, the series-connected capacity detection system includes a control system, which is connected to the polarity switching circuit and the battery switch circuit respectively; wherein the battery switch circuit includes a detection module, and the detection module is used to detect the voltage and temperature of the battery. The control system is used to control the polarity switching circuit to switch between the first working state and the second working state according to the battery voltage signal sent by the detection module.
[0069] In a specific implementation, the detection module includes a voltage detection circuit, a temperature sensor, etc., which are conventional technical means in the art.
[0070] Specifically, the control system is used to control the polarity switching circuit, specifically, by instructing the upper half bridge arm K1 and the lower half bridge arm K3 of the first bridge arm to be turned on / closed, and instructing the upper half bridge arm K2 and the lower half bridge arm K4 of the second bridge arm to be turned on / closed.
[0071] In a specific implementation, the bidirectional conversion circuit is used to connect an AC bus, and the bidirectional conversion circuit includes an AC-DC module and a DC-DC module, and the DC-DC module is connected to the AC-DC module.
[0072] In this field, when the bus connected to the bidirectional conversion circuit is three-phase alternating current, the function of the AC-DC module is to convert alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC), and it also plays the role of overcurrent protection and overvoltage protection; the main function of the DC-DC module is to convert one DC voltage into another DC voltage; the DC-DC module increases or decreases the input DC voltage to the required output voltage level, which enables the equipment to adapt to different power requirements or load requirements, providing a flexible, stable and reliable power supply solution for the detection system, and meeting the application requirements of different voltage requirements.
[0073] In a specific implementation, multiple switch control circuits are used to connect multiple batteries in series to form a series circuit; each of the switch control circuits includes a direct switch and a bypass switch, one direct switch is connected in series with one battery, and the bypass switch is connected in parallel with the series direct switch and the battery;
[0074] Wherein, when the direct switch of a switch control circuit is closed and the bypass switch is opened, the corresponding battery is connected to the series circuit;
[0075] When the direct switch of a switch control circuit is opened and the bypass switch is closed, the corresponding battery exits the series circuit.
[0076] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the battery switch circuit of the present invention includes a plurality of direct switches Kn1-K11 and a plurality of bypass switches Kn2-K12.
[0077] Among them, a bypass switch corresponds to an adjacent straight-circuit switch and a battery in parallel. When a battery corresponds to an adjacent straight-circuit switch closed and the corresponding bypass switch is disconnected, the battery is connected to the series circuit. When a battery corresponds to an adjacent straight-circuit switch disconnected and the corresponding bypass switch closed, the battery exits the series circuit.
[0078] In a specific implementation, the direct switch and the bypass switch can use relays, electronic switches, etc. to achieve the connection and exit of the battery.
[0079] The control system is connected to the battery switch circuit, and the control system controls the direct switch and the bypass switch of the battery switch circuit to realize the connection and exit of the battery from the series circuit.
[0080] In a specific implementation, in the first working state, the polarity switching circuit outputs a positive voltage to the battery switching circuit, and some batteries with opposite polarity to the positive voltage exit the series circuit by disconnecting the corresponding direct circuit switch and closing the corresponding bypass switch; some batteries with the same polarity as the positive voltage continue to work normally.
[0081] In the second working state, the polarity switching circuit outputs a negative voltage to the battery switch circuit, and some batteries with opposite polarity to the negative voltage exit the series circuit by disconnecting the corresponding direct circuit switch and closing the corresponding bypass switch; some batteries with the same polarity as the negative voltage continue to work normally.
[0082] In a specific implementation, the control system is provided with a cut-off condition. When the cut-off condition is reached, the direct switch corresponding to a battery is disconnected, and the corresponding bypass switch is closed, so that the battery exits the series circuit. The cut-off condition includes but is not limited to the voltage reaching the set voltage, the time reaching the set time, the occurrence of a fault, or the reaching of an alarm condition. After the bypass switch is closed, the battery to be tested for capacity will exit the series circuit.
[0083] In the specific implementation, the detection system also includes a monitoring center, which is connected to the control system and is used to monitor the operating status of the detection system. When a fault occurs during the operation of the detection system, an alarm will be issued in time.
[0084] In a specific implementation of the present invention, the detection system also includes a pressing device, which includes a probe or a clamp, which is connected to the control system through a cable, and the control system probe or clamp is connected to the battery to be tested for capacity so as to connect the battery to be tested for capacity into a series circuit. It can be understood that the pressing device is used to contact the battery to form an electrical circuit so as to realize the connection between the above-mentioned functional circuits and the battery.
[0085] The present invention discloses a polarity-switching serial capacity detection system. When the serial capacity detection system is in operation, the control system controls the pressing device to contact the battery to be detected, and connects the battery to be detected into the series circuit. At the same time, the detection module in the battery series circuit detects the voltage of the battery and sends the detection result to the control system. The control system controls the bridge arm action of the polarity switching circuit according to the detection result.
[0086] In this way, no matter which end the positive electrode of the battery to be tested for capacity is at, the positive output end of the bidirectional conversion circuit can be connected to the positive electrode of the battery to be tested for capacity, and the negative output end can be connected to the negative electrode of the battery to be tested for capacity, so that the polarity can be switched during actual use, which is suitable for occasions where the battery polarity is opposite to the design due to battery replacement or battery pack tray, and meets the needs of large-scale manufacturing on the production line.
[0087] The working principle of the polarity-switchable series-connected capacity detection system of the present invention is: the control system controls the probe or clamp of the pressing device to connect the electrode of the battery, the detection module detects the battery voltage and sends the detection result to the control system, the control system sends the control instruction to the polarity switching circuit, the polarity conversion cable controls different bridge arms to open and close according to the different polarities of the battery, and at the same time, all the direct switches are closed and the bypass switches are disconnected, the bidirectional conversion circuit charges and discharges the battery, when the voltage reaches the set voltage, or the time reaches the set time, the bypass switch is closed, the direct switch is disconnected, the battery exits the series main loop, and the control system controls the probe or clamp to separate from the battery electrode.
[0088] During the whole process, the set voltage or set time of the battery voltage is set by the control system, which controls the whole process. At the same time, the monitoring unit monitors to ensure the normal operation of the system. In the case of reverse connection of the battery, there is no need to re-reverse the direction of the battery. The equipment automatically determines the positive and negative polarity of the battery and completes the capacity division process, saving time and improving efficiency.
[0089] The control system can realize the functional regulation of the entire detection system. The functions of the control system include but are not limited to system control and information collection, information interaction with the monitoring center, and interactive control and command sending with the bidirectional conversion circuit, battery series circuit, pressing device, etc.
[0090] In the specific implementation, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , are two different ways of placing the battery. It can be seen that in different battery placement situations, by closing the corresponding switch, the positive electrode of the battery can always be connected to the positive terminal of the bidirectional conversion circuit, such as Figure 4 As shown, when the battery is pressed, the detection module detects the battery voltage of each channel. When all battery voltages are positive, the battery is positive polarity. At this time, the control system controls the polarity switching module to close the first switch K1 and the fourth switch K4, and the current flows as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the positive electrode connection end of the bidirectional conversion circuit is connected to the positive electrode of the battery, and the batteries to be converted into capacities are BATn~BAT1. Each battery BATn~BAT1 is connected in series with a straight-circuit switch Kn1~K11. The positive electrode of the bidirectional conversion circuit charges and discharges the batteries BATn~BAT1 by closing the straight-circuit switches Kn1~K11. Each battery and the straight-circuit switch are connected in parallel with a bypass switch. The function of the bypass switches Kn2~K12 is that when the battery voltage reaches the cut-off condition, the battery will exit the series main circuit, that is, disconnect the main circuit switches Kn1~K11 and close Kn2~K12; the same is true when the battery discharge reaches the cut-off condition. The cut-off condition includes but is not limited to the voltage reaching the set voltage, or the time reaching the set time, or reaching a fault or alarm condition.
[0091] like Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 1 , another arrangement of the batteries is shown. When the batteries are pressed together, the battery voltages of each channel are detected by the detection module. When all battery voltages are negative, the batteries are of negative polarity. At this time, the control system controls the polarity switching module to close the second switch K2 and the third switch K3, and the current flows as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the positive electrode connection end of the bidirectional conversion circuit is still connected to the positive electrode of the battery.
[0092] The polarity-switchable serial capacity-splitting detection system of the present invention is suitable for occasions where the battery polarity is opposite to the design due to battery replacement or battery assembly, and meets the needs of large-scale manufacturing of production lines. The docking mode of the battery and the needle bed is divided into positive polarity and negative polarity working modes. When the battery is pressed together, the internal detection module of the switch module detects whether the battery voltage is positive or negative. After the detection is completed, the detection result is sent to the control system, and the control system sends the control logic of the switch to the switch module and the polarity switching module. The switch control block and the polarity switching module open or close the switch. Compared with the prior art, in the case of reverse connection of the battery, the design does not need to re-switch the battery direction, and the equipment automatically determines the positive and negative polarity of the battery and completes the capacity-splitting process; the same set of equipment can separately perform capacity-splitting on positive and negative polarity batteries, and there is no need to adjust the polarity when the battery polarity is reversed, saving time and equipment investment; the polarity-switchable serial capacity-splitting detection system provided by the present invention can effectively solve the compatibility problem of reverse polarity of the entire tray or part of the battery during battery replacement or assembly, and improve work efficiency.

[0094] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Therefore, any modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment according to the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the technical solution of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
