Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery management systems or other related fields, and in particular to a high- and low-voltage isolated energy storage battery management system. Background Art

[0002] The energy storage battery management system is a crucial component of the energy storage system. By monitoring battery parameters in real time and performing battery status detection, status prediction, and status warnings, the energy storage battery management system monitors, manages, and maintains the energy storage batteries, ensuring their reliable operation, extending their service life, and improving their efficiency and economic value. Currently, the management voltage of the energy storage battery management system can only reach a maximum of 1500V. When the management voltage is increased to 2000V, the system cycle efficiency of the energy storage battery management system is improved. Therefore, from the perspective of voltage cost and economic benefits of the energy storage system, the 2000V to 2500V energy storage battery management system has better performance than the 1500V energy storage battery management system.

[0003] In related technologies, when the management voltage of the energy storage battery management system is increased to 2000V to 2500V, the number of series components in the energy storage system increases, the number of DC cables connected to the inverter is reduced, and the number of junction boxes is also reduced accordingly. At the same time, the power density of electrical equipment such as junction boxes, inverters, and box transformers is increased and the equipment size is reduced, which reduces the workload of transporting and maintaining electrical equipment, thereby reducing the overall cost of the energy storage system. As the voltage of the energy storage system increases, the energy storage battery management system, as the core equipment of the energy storage system, also needs to increase the total voltage of the battery pack collected. However, it is currently impossible to isolate the high and low voltages of high-voltage energy storage battery management systems.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] A high-low voltage isolated energy storage battery management system provided in this embodiment includes multiple implementation units. Figure 1 Schematic diagram of an optional high and low voltage isolated energy storage battery management system according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the high-low voltage isolated energy storage battery management system may include: a power isolation unit 10 , a high voltage acquisition unit 11 , and a communication isolation unit 12 .

[0030] Among them, the power isolation unit 10 is used to provide a target operating voltage for the high-voltage acquisition unit. The power isolation unit 10 includes: a low-voltage power supply, a first transformer, a voltage conditioning circuit, a second transformer, a diode module and a voltage regulator. After receiving the voltage generated by the low-voltage power supply, the first transformer couples the voltage to the voltage conditioning circuit. The second transformer is used to couple the output voltage of the voltage conditioning circuit to the diode module. The output voltage of the diode module is processed by the voltage regulator to obtain the target operating voltage. Among them, the first transformer is the first-level isolation module of the power isolation unit, and the second transformer is the second-level isolation module of the power isolation unit.

[0031] The high-voltage acquisition unit 11 is used to acquire battery cluster information, convert the signal format of the battery cluster information into a digital signal, and transmit the battery cluster information in the form of a digital signal to the communication isolation unit.

[0032] The communication isolation unit 12 is used to transmit the battery cluster information in the form of a digital signal to the microprocessor chip, and the microprocessor chip generates a battery cluster control instruction based on the battery cluster information. The communication isolation unit 12 includes: a third transformer, a fourth transformer and a bridge chip. The third transformer is used to couple the battery cluster information in the form of a digital signal to the fourth transformer. The fourth transformer is used to couple the battery cluster information in the form of a digital signal to the bridge chip. The bridge chip is used to transmit the battery cluster information in the form of a digital signal to the microprocessor chip. The third transformer is a primary isolation module of the communication isolation unit, and the fourth transformer is a secondary isolation module of the communication isolation unit.

[0033] In the power isolation unit 10 of the embodiment of the present invention, the low-voltage power supply can adopt "±5V" alternating current, and the low-voltage power supply is responsible for providing the voltage of the power isolation unit 10. The first transformer and the second transformer can adopt 1:2 turn ratio transformers or 1:1 turn ratio transformers. It should be noted that the creepage distances of the first transformer and the second transformer must be greater than or equal to the preset insulation threshold, and the sum of the creepage distances of the first transformer and the second transformer must be greater than or equal to the dual transformer target insulation threshold. In the embodiment of the present invention, the first transformer is the first-level isolation module of the power isolation unit 10, and the second transformer is the second-level isolation module of the power isolation unit 10. The voltage conditioning circuit is a signal processing circuit, which is mainly used to condition the voltage to the target input voltage of the second transformer. The voltage conditioning circuit conditions the voltage signal so that the lower-level module can perform data processing on the voltage. The diode module includes at least two diodes. A diode is an electronic device made of semiconductor material with a positive and negative poles. When a positive voltage is applied between the two poles of the diode, the diode conducts, allowing current to flow from the positive pole to the negative pole. When a negative voltage is applied between the two poles of the diode, the diode is cut off, and current cannot flow from the positive pole to the negative pole. In this operating mode, the diode can rectify the voltage and current signals, adjusting the voltage and current signals to input signals suitable for the lower-level module. The voltage regulator can use a low-dropout voltage regulator, which can reduce the input voltage and convert it into the target operating voltage of the high-voltage acquisition unit, thereby providing a stable operating voltage for the high-voltage acquisition unit.

[0034] In an embodiment of the present invention, the high- and low-voltage isolated energy storage battery management system further includes a high-voltage acquisition unit 11, which is connected to the battery cluster and is used to collect battery cluster information. The collected battery cluster information is an analog signal. The high-voltage acquisition unit 11 converts the battery cluster information into a digital signal internally and transmits the battery cluster information in the form of a digital signal.

[0035] In the communication isolation unit 12 of the embodiment of the present invention, the third transformer and the fourth transformer may be 1:2 turns ratio transformers or 1:1 turns ratio transformers. The creepage distances of the third transformer and the fourth transformer must be greater than or equal to the preset insulation threshold, and the sum of the creepage distances of the third transformer and the fourth transformer must be greater than or equal to the dual-transformer target insulation threshold. In the embodiment of the present invention, the third transformer is the primary isolation module of the communication isolation unit 12, and the fourth transformer is the secondary isolation module of the communication isolation unit 12. A bridge chip is an integrated circuit used to connect different communication protocols or interfaces. Its main function is to convert data into different transmission formats to ensure smooth data transmission between different devices or systems.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present invention, dual transformer isolation is used in both the power supply circuit and the communication circuit between the high and low voltages of the energy storage battery management system. The dual transformer isolation in the power supply circuit consists of primary isolation achieved by a first transformer and secondary isolation achieved by a second transformer. The dual transformer isolation in the communication circuit consists of primary isolation achieved by a third transformer and secondary isolation achieved by a fourth transformer. By employing dual transformer isolation in both the power supply circuit and the communication circuit between the high and low voltages of the energy storage battery management system, the safety regulations of the 2000V to 2500V energy storage battery management system can be met, thereby enhancing the reliability and stability of the 2000V to 2500V energy storage battery management system.

[0037] Optionally, the power isolation unit is connected to the high-voltage acquisition unit, and the high-voltage acquisition unit is connected to the communication isolation unit, wherein, in the power isolation unit, the low-voltage power supply is connected to the first transformer, the first transformer is connected to the voltage conditioning circuit, the voltage conditioning circuit is connected to the second transformer, the second transformer is connected to the diode module, and the diode module is connected to the voltage regulator; the voltage regulator is connected to the high-voltage acquisition unit, and the high-voltage acquisition unit is connected to the third transformer in the communication isolation unit; in the communication isolation unit, the third transformer is connected to the fourth transformer, the fourth transformer is connected to the bridge chip, and the bridge chip is connected to the microprocessor chip.

[0038] In an embodiment of the present invention, the power isolation unit is connected to the high-voltage acquisition unit, and the high-voltage acquisition unit is connected to the communication isolation unit. In the power isolation unit, the low-voltage power supply, the first transformer, the voltage conditioning circuit, the second transformer, the diode module and the voltage stabilizer are connected in sequence. In the communication isolation unit, the third transformer, the fourth transformer and the bridge chip are connected in sequence.

[0039] Optionally, the creepage distances of the first transformer, the second transformer, the third transformer and the fourth transformer are all greater than or equal to a preset insulation threshold, the sum of the creepage distances of the first transformer and the second transformer is greater than or equal to the dual-transformer target insulation threshold, and the sum of the creepage distances of the third transformer and the fourth transformer is greater than or equal to the dual-transformer target insulation threshold.

[0040] By implementing a high- and low-voltage isolation strategy within the energy storage battery management system, external operating objects can be protected from harm. While performing their tasks, external operating objects may come into contact with low-voltage or electrical equipment housings. This high- and low-voltage isolation strategy prevents high voltage from being introduced to these low-voltage or electrical equipment housings, protecting external operating objects from contact with high voltage and, consequently, harm.

[0041] The energy storage battery management system has a preset insulation threshold for the creepage distance between the high voltage and low voltage. The size of the creepage distance between the high voltage and low voltage is crucial to the safe operation of the energy storage battery management system. If the creepage distance is too small, it will cause breakdown between the high voltage winding and the low voltage winding, thereby causing damage to the equipment and even causing a safety accident. Therefore, the creepage distance of the first transformer, the second transformer, the third transformer and the fourth transformer must be greater than or equal to the preset insulation threshold. In the embodiment of the present invention, the preset insulation threshold is 18mm. At the same time, in order to ensure that the 2000V to 2500V energy storage battery management system can operate safely and stably, the sum of the creepage distances of the first transformer and the second transformer must be greater than or equal to the dual transformer target insulation threshold, and the sum of the creepage distances of the third transformer and the fourth transformer must be greater than or equal to the dual transformer target insulation threshold. In the embodiment of the present invention, the dual transformer target insulation threshold is 36mm. Based on the above standards, the first transformer, second transformer, third transformer, and fourth transformer in the embodiment of the present invention can adopt the "model ALTWR-HD04TF" transformer, which has a creepage distance greater than or equal to 21 mm. The creepage distance of the dual transformer is greater than or equal to 42 mm, meeting the creepage distance insulation standard of the 2000V to 2500V energy storage battery management system under high and low voltage.

[0043] In an embodiment of the present invention, the power isolation unit 10 also includes a push-pull chip and a filter element. A push-pull chip is a chip that can control a circuit to operate in two directions. It controls the forward or reverse flow of current by controlling the power switch tube inside the chip, thereby controlling the conversion and transmission of power energy. In this embodiment of the present invention, the push-pull chip is powered by a low-voltage power supply. The filter element is used to filter the voltage. In this embodiment of the present invention, the filter element includes a filter capacitor and a filter inductor.

[0045] In an embodiment of the present invention, battery cluster information includes: the total voltage, total current, and total insulation value of the battery cluster. The total voltage of the battery cluster corresponding to the 2000V to 2500V energy storage battery management system is 2000V to 2500V. The high-voltage acquisition unit 11 collects the battery cluster information and converts the battery cluster information into a digital signal. The battery cluster information is transmitted to the microprocessor chip through the communication isolation unit 12, and the microprocessor chip issues instructions based on the received battery cluster information.

[0046] The embodiment of the present invention can evaluate the battery cluster based on the battery cluster information collected by the high-voltage acquisition unit 11. For example, the operating status of the battery cluster can be evaluated by calculating the charge state of the battery cluster based on the total voltage and total current information of the battery cluster, and the current health level and life status of the battery cluster can be evaluated by calculating the health status value of the battery cluster based on the total voltage and total insulation value of the battery cluster.

The microprocessor chip is a control chip that receives battery cluster information and, based on information such as the total voltage, total current, and total insulation value, generates corresponding battery cluster control instructions. These instructions are then transmitted to lower-level modules for implementation. For example, based on the total current information of the battery cluster, the microprocessor chip determines whether the current discharge or charge current of the battery cluster is excessive or insufficient, and then issues charging or discharging instructions to adjust the charge and discharge currents of the battery cluster.

The battery cluster information is then transmitted to the bridge chip in the form of daisy chain communication after being isolated by the dual transformers "T3" and "T4". Finally, the bridge chip converts the battery cluster information into a synchronous serial communication format and transmits the battery cluster information to the microprocessor chip, which issues instructions.

[0065] Optionally, when performing an isolation operation, the power isolation unit includes: a low-voltage power supply generates a voltage and transmits the voltage to a first transformer and a push-pull chip; the first transformer performs a first-level isolation on the voltage and couples the voltage to a voltage conditioning circuit, wherein the voltage is a DC voltage signal; the voltage conditioning circuit regulates the voltage to a target input voltage of the second transformer and transmits the voltage to the second transformer; the second transformer performs a second-level isolation on the voltage and couples the voltage to a diode module, wherein the diode module includes at least two diode elements; the diode module rectifies the voltage to a target input voltage of a voltage regulator and transmits the voltage to the voltage regulator, and the voltage regulator converts the voltage into a target operating voltage of a high-voltage acquisition unit.

The "T1" first transformer is the primary isolation of the power isolation unit 10. The voltage generated by the low-voltage power supply "VCC+5V" passes through the "T1" first transformer and is then coupled to the voltage conditioning circuit by the first transformer. The voltage conditioning circuit conditions the voltage to a suitable input voltage for the second transformer, that is, to the target input voltage of the second transformer. After conditioning by the voltage conditioning circuit, the voltage is transmitted to the "T2" second transformer. The "T2" second transformer is the secondary isolation of the power isolation unit 10. The second transformer couples the voltage to the diode module. After rectification by the "D1", "D2", "D3", and "D4" diodes, the voltage is rectified to a suitable input voltage for the voltage regulator, that is, to the target input voltage of the voltage regulator. The voltage is transmitted to the "U1" voltage regulator, and finally the "U1" voltage regulator converts the voltage into the target operating voltage of the high-voltage acquisition unit to power the high-voltage acquisition unit.

The fourth transformer "T4" realizes the secondary isolation of the communication isolation unit 12, and the 4 and 6 pins of the fourth transformer "T4" receive the battery cluster signal and couple the battery cluster signal to the 3 and 1 pins. The battery cluster information is transmitted from the 3 and 1 pins of the fourth transformer "T4" to the bridge chip, and the bridge chip converts the format of the battery cluster information into a synchronous serial communication format, that is, Figure 2 The "SPI" format in the battery cluster is transmitted to the microprocessor chip in a synchronous serial communication format, and the microprocessor chip issues instructions.

[0073] It should be noted that by converting the battery cluster information into a synchronous serial communication format, the transmission efficiency of the battery cluster information can be improved, and the synchronous serial communication protocol is relatively simple and easy to implement and maintain.

[0074] It should be noted that the bridge chip in this embodiment of the present invention is configured with a daisy-chain communication protocol.
