At the same time, the government strongly supports electric vehicles. Now all major automobile manufacturers are conducting research and development of electric vehicles.

[0049] As an important component of electric vehicles, the performance of the battery pack is greatly affected by temperature. When the temperature of the battery pack is high, the activity of the battery pack increases, and the energy can be more effectively utilized, including the charging and discharging platform, efficiency, and available capacity of the battery pack. However, if the battery pack works in a high temperature environment for a long time, the battery life will be significantly shortened; when the temperature of the battery pack is low, the activity of the battery pack is significantly reduced, the internal resistance and polarization voltage of the battery pack increase, the actual available capacity decreases, the discharge capacity of the battery pack decreases, the discharge platform is low, and the battery pack is more likely to reach the discharge cut-off voltage, which is manifested as a decrease in the available capacity of the battery and a decrease in the energy utilization efficiency of the battery pack. Generally, when heating multiple battery packs of electric vehicle batteries, the temperature difference between the packs will gradually increase with the increase of heating time, thus affecting the normal driving of the vehicle.

[0069] Example 2

[0070] An embodiment of the present invention provides a battery heating method. Figure 2 Flow chart of a battery heating method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the battery heating method may include the following steps:

[0071] Step S201, obtaining a first temperature corresponding to each of the battery boxes; wherein the number of the first temperatures is the same as the number of the battery boxes.

[0072] The first temperature refers to the temperature detected in real time when all battery boxes are in the heating process. For each battery box, the first temperature corresponding to the battery box can be detected in real time by a temperature sensor or other equipment, and the first temperature is transmitted to the server through a communication interface. A battery management system is running in the server.

[0073] Step S202, when the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature among the first temperatures is greater than a first threshold, the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature is disconnected, and the second temperatures corresponding to the battery boxes other than the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature are obtained.

[0074] The highest temperature refers to the temperature with the largest value among the first temperatures detected at the same time. The lowest temperature refers to the temperature with the smallest value among the first temperatures detected at the same time. The first threshold is used to determine whether the temperature difference between the battery boxes is too large. Other battery boxes refer to battery boxes other than the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature, and the number of other battery boxes is at least one. The second temperature refers to the temperature obtained by real-time detection of other battery boxes after the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature is disconnected, that is, when at least one battery box stops heating, the temperature obtained by real-time detection of the battery box that is still being heated.

[0075] Specifically, for the first temperature corresponding to each battery box, sort them according to the size of the numerical value to determine the highest temperature and the lowest temperature. Compare the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature with the first threshold. When the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature is greater than the first threshold, it indicates that the temperature difference between the battery boxes is too large, which may affect the normal driving of the vehicle. At this time, the battery management system will control the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature to disconnect and stop heating the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature. For other battery boxes except the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature, obtain the second temperature corresponding to the other battery boxes. When the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature is less than or equal to the first threshold, it indicates that the temperature difference between the battery boxes is within the normal range and will not affect the normal driving of the vehicle. At this time, continue to heat each battery box.

[0076] Step S203, when each of the second temperatures is greater than or equal to the maximum temperature, close the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the maximum temperature, and return to execute the step of obtaining the first temperature corresponding to each of the battery boxes.

[0077] When the second temperature is greater than or equal to the maximum temperature, it indicates that the temperature difference between the temperature of other battery boxes and the temperature of the battery box corresponding to the maximum temperature is within the normal range. For other battery boxes, if there is a battery box with a second temperature lower than the maximum temperature, the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the maximum temperature will remain disconnected until the second temperature of all other battery boxes is greater than or equal to the maximum temperature. At this time, the battery management system closes the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the maximum temperature and continues to heat the battery box corresponding to the maximum temperature, that is, continues to heat all battery boxes in the battery system.

[0078] The battery heating method provided in the embodiment of the present invention monitors the first temperature of each battery box, and when the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature in each first temperature is greater than a first threshold value, disconnects the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature, thereby realizing independent control of the battery box heating process, and by acquiring the second temperatures corresponding to other battery boxes, when each second temperature is greater than or equal to the highest temperature, realizing control of the temperature difference between each battery box, ensuring that the temperature difference between each battery box is always maintained within a normal range, avoiding temperature difference failure between battery cells caused by uneven temperature difference in the battery box, thereby affecting the normal driving of the vehicle, and reducing the failure rate of the battery box.

[0079] Example 3

[0080] The embodiment of the present invention also provides another battery heating method; this method is implemented on the basis of the method in the above embodiment; this method focuses on describing the specific implementation method before obtaining the first temperature corresponding to each battery box.

[0081] Figure 3 A flowchart of another battery heating method provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the battery heating method may include the following steps:

[0082] Step S301, obtaining a third temperature corresponding to each of the battery boxes.

[0083] The third temperature refers to the temperature detected in real time before the battery box is heated. For each battery box, the third temperature corresponding to the battery box can be detected in real time by a temperature sensor or other device, and the first temperature can be transmitted to the server through the communication interface. The number of third temperatures is the same as the number of battery boxes, and the ambient temperature can also be used as the third temperature.

[0084] Step S302, when any of the third temperatures is less than or equal to a third threshold, closing the heating relay in each of the battery boxes, and the heating positive relay and the heating negative relay in the high-voltage box.

[0085] The third threshold is used to determine whether the temperature of the battery box is too low. When the third temperature is less than or equal to the third threshold, it indicates that the temperature of the battery box is too low and the battery box needs to be heated. When the third temperature is greater than the third threshold, it indicates that the temperature of the battery box is normal and the battery box does not need to be heated.

[0086] Specifically, for each third temperature, if at least one third temperature is less than or equal to the third threshold, that is, any third temperature among the third temperatures is less than or equal to the third threshold, it indicates that the temperature of at least one battery box in each battery box is too low. At this time, each battery box needs to be heated. The battery management system closes the heating relays in each battery box and the heating positive relay and the heating negative relay in the high-voltage box to heat the battery box.

[0087] Step S303, obtaining the first temperature corresponding to each of the battery boxes.

[0088] Step S304, when the highest temperature among the first temperatures is greater than or equal to a second threshold, disconnecting the heating relays in the battery boxes, and the heating positive relay and the heating negative relay in the high-voltage box.

[0089] The second threshold is used to determine whether the temperature of the battery box is too high. If the first temperature is greater than or equal to the second threshold, it indicates that the temperature of the battery box is too high and the heating of the battery box needs to be stopped. If the first temperature is less than the second threshold, it indicates that the temperature of the battery box is normal and the battery box can continue to be heated.

[0090] Specifically, for each first temperature, if at least one first temperature is greater than or equal to the second threshold, it indicates that the temperature of at least one battery box is too high, and heating should be stopped at this time. The battery management system will disconnect the heating relays in each battery box, as well as the heating positive relay and heating negative relay in the high-voltage box to stop heating. In another case, if all first temperatures are greater than or equal to the second threshold, it indicates that the temperature of all battery boxes is too high, and heating also needs to be stopped at this time. The battery management system will also disconnect the heating relays in each battery box, as well as the heating positive relay and heating negative relay in the high-voltage box to stop heating.

[0091] Step S305, when the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature among the first temperatures is greater than a first threshold, the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature is disconnected, and the second temperatures corresponding to the battery boxes other than the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature are obtained.

[0092] Step S306, when each of the second temperatures is greater than or equal to the maximum temperature, close the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the maximum temperature, and return to execute the step of obtaining the first temperature corresponding to each of the battery boxes.

[0093] The battery heating method provided in the embodiment of the present invention judges the temperature of the battery box through multiple thresholds, and determines different adjustment methods according to different threshold judgment conditions satisfied by the battery box temperature, thereby improving the flexibility of battery box temperature adjustment, reducing the failure rate of the battery box, and ensuring the safe driving of the vehicle.

[0098] The regulating module 403 is used to close the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature when each of the second temperatures is greater than or equal to the highest temperature, and return to execute the step of obtaining the first temperature corresponding to each of the battery boxes.

[0099] The battery heating device provided in the embodiment of the present invention monitors the first temperature of each battery box, and when the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature in each first temperature is greater than a first threshold value, disconnects the heating relay in the battery box corresponding to the highest temperature, thereby realizing independent control of the heating process of the battery box, and by acquiring the second temperatures corresponding to other battery boxes, when each second temperature is greater than or equal to the highest temperature, realizing control of the temperature difference between the battery boxes, ensuring that the temperature difference between the battery boxes is always maintained within a normal range, avoiding temperature difference failures between battery cells caused by uneven temperature differences in the battery boxes, thereby affecting the normal driving of the vehicle, and reducing the failure rate of the battery boxes.
