New energy vehicles are generally equipped with power batteries. When the vehicle is in driving mode, the power battery provides power for the vehicle to enable normal operation of the vehicle; when the vehicle is in charging mode, an off-board charging system or an on-board charger (OBC) is used to charge the power battery.

[0003] However, the driving system and charging system corresponding to the driving mode and charging mode in the related art are two systems that operate independently of each other, occupying a large volume in the vehicle, resulting in a larger vehicle weight and higher production costs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present application provides a power control system and a vehicle, aiming to solve the problem that the drive system and the charging system corresponding to the drive mode and the charging mode are two independently operated systems, which occupy a large volume in the vehicle, resulting in a large vehicle weight and high production cost.

[0005] In a first aspect, a power control system is provided, which is applied to a vehicle, the vehicle is equipped with a charging terminal, and the power control system includes a motor module, a single-switch correction module, a rectifier module and a control module; the single-switch correction module is connected to the motor module; the rectifier module is connected to the single-switch correction module and the high-voltage battery; the control module is connected to the motor module, the single-switch correction module, the rectifier module and the charging terminal, and the control module is used to obtain current information of the charging terminal, and control the power control system to operate in a first working mode or a second working mode based on the current information; wherein, in the first working mode, the control module controls the motor module to be disconnected from the branch where the charging terminal is located, the single-switch correction module and the rectifier module are bypassed, and the high-voltage battery outputs voltage to the motor module; in the second working mode, the control module controls the motor module to be connected to the branch where the charging terminal is located, the motor module and the single-switch correction module form a power factor correction circuit, the rectifier module works, and the charging terminal outputs voltage to the high-voltage battery via the motor module, the single-switch correction module and the rectifier module.

[0006] In the above technical solution, the control module can obtain the current information of the charging terminal in real time to determine the working mode of the power control system based on the current information, and adjust the on-off state of the branch where the motor module and the charging terminal are located and the working state of the rectifier module accordingly, thereby realizing the adjustment and control of the working mode of the power control system, and the adjustment flexibility is relatively high. In this way, the present application can realize charging and driving based on a set of power control systems, without the need to set up independently operating drive systems and charging systems, thereby reducing the production cost, and at the same time reducing the area occupied by the power control system in the vehicle, thereby reducing the volume of the vehicle, reducing the weight of the vehicle, and thus improving the power density level, efficiency and performance of the vehicle. Moreover, in both the first working mode and the second working mode, the motor module 11 is in working state, which improves the utilization rate of the motor module. Secondly, in the second working mode, the motor module will form a PFC circuit with the single-switch correction module to adjust the input current provided by the charging terminal so that the input current and the input voltage are in phase, thereby correcting the power factor to reduce the loss of reactive power, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the power control system. The PFC circuit can also reduce the harmonic components in the input current provided by the charging terminal to reduce the loss of the power grid, thereby improving the charging reliability of the high-voltage battery and the overall energy utilization rate.

[0008] In the above technical solution, under different operating modes, the control module can control the single-switch correction module to be bypassed or activated by controlling the on / off states of the first and second switch units, thereby achieving precise control of the single-switch correction module. Secondly, in the second operating mode, the control module controls the intermittent conduction of the second switch unit, which can control the waveform of the input current provided by the charging terminal so that the input current waveform can be consistent with the input voltage waveform, so that the phase difference between the input current and input voltage is zero, thereby correcting the power factor.

[0011] In the above technical solution, the diode has a unidirectional conductive characteristic.

[0015] In the above technical solution, when the third switch unit adopts a single-pole double-throw switch, it can achieve the purpose of connecting one input to one of two different output paths, so as to realize flexible switching of the branch where the drive motor and the charging terminal are located. Compared with using multiple ordinary switches, the single-pole double-throw switch can reduce the number of required components to simplify the circuit layout, make the power control system more compact, and further reduce the production cost.

The detection accuracy is high. The main control unit can obtain the current working mode of the power control system in real time based on the detection signal, and control the power control system to work in the corresponding working mode, with high adjustment flexibility and control accuracy.

[0040] The following will clearly and thoroughly describe the technical solutions in this application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the description of the embodiments of this application, unless otherwise specified, " / " means or, for example, A / B can mean A or B: "and / or" in the text is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, in the description of the embodiments of this application, "multiple" means two or more than two.

[0041] In the following, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to imply or suggest relative importance or implicitly indicate the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0042] Currently, new energy vehicles are widely used in various scenarios, replacing internal combustion engine vehicles. Compared with internal combustion engine vehicles, new energy vehicles produce less noise during driving and do not directly emit exhaust gas, making them more environmentally friendly. At the same time, new energy vehicles are intelligent, have higher energy efficiency conversion rates, and have lower maintenance costs. Therefore, more and more people are starting to use new energy vehicles as a means of transportation. New energy vehicles are usually equipped with a power battery to provide a power source for the vehicle and drive motor. For example, the power battery outputs direct current to the motor. The motor controller (MCU) converts the DC power provided by the power battery into three-phase alternating current to drive the motor according to the target torque and speed sent by the vehicle control unit (VCU). This controls the motor to complete functions such as starting, acceleration and deceleration, braking, and energy recovery, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle.

[0043] New energy vehicles are usually equipped with two electrical systems, high voltage and low voltage. Among them, the high voltage electrical system is equipped with a high voltage battery (such as a power battery). The high voltage battery is used to power high-power electrical equipment (such as a motor) in the vehicle to drive the vehicle to maintain normal driving. At the same time, the power battery will also charge the low voltage battery in the vehicle under the control of the vehicle controller, and the charging voltage is usually about several hundred volts. The low voltage electrical system is equipped with a low voltage battery (such as a 12V battery) and a direct current to direct current converter (DCDC). The DC converter can convert the high voltage electricity of the high voltage battery into low voltage electricity to meet the transmission / control of signals in the vehicle. For example, the low voltage electricity can power the signal / control part of the motor controller, vehicle controller, battery management system (BMS), electronic control unit (ECU) corresponding to the on-board charger, vehicle entertainment system and lighting system, etc. in the vehicle to meet the transmission / control of signals in these electronic devices.

[0044] When the vehicle is in driving mode, the high-voltage battery provides the vehicle with power to enable normal operation. When the vehicle is in charging mode, an off-board charging system or on-board charger is used to charge the power battery. The off-board charging system is integrated into a charging pile or a large charger and is usually installed in a fixed location such as a parking lot or garage. The off-board charging system can output DC power to charge the high-voltage battery. The charging speed is relatively fast, but the charging location is limited. To make charging more convenient, an on-board charger can make the vehicle no longer dependent on the charging pile. The on-board charger is usually installed directly on the vehicle. After the vehicle is connected to three-phase or single-phase AC power, the on-board charging system can convert the three-phase or single-phase AC power into DC power to charge the high-voltage battery. The charging power level is low and the charging time is relatively long. It is usually only suitable for vehicles that are in an idle state.

[0045] Currently, in related technologies, the drive system and charging system corresponding to the driving mode and charging mode in a vehicle are two independently operated systems. That is, the inverter, motor, motor controller and other components in the vehicle operate in the driving mode. When the high-voltage battery is low on energy, the charging system (i.e., an independent onboard charging system) charges the high-voltage battery. The same applies to the DC converter. As a result, the drive system and charging system occupy a large area in the vehicle, resulting in increased vehicle size, weight, and manufacturing costs. In addition, greater driving force is required to achieve the same acceleration or driving performance, resulting in a lower power density level for the vehicle.

[0046] To this end, embodiments of the present application provide a power control system and vehicle that achieve both charging and driving based on a single power control system, eliminating the need for separate drive and charging systems. This reduces manufacturing costs and the footprint of the power control system within the vehicle, thereby reducing the vehicle's size and weight, and thereby improving the vehicle's power density, efficiency, and performance. Furthermore, the power control system can correct the power factor to reduce reactive power loss, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the power control system.

[0047] The power control system and vehicle provided in the embodiments of the present application are exemplarily introduced below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0048] The embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle, in one example, Figure 1As shown, a power control system 1, a high-voltage battery 2, and a charging terminal 3 are provided in the vehicle. The power control system 1 is connected to the high-voltage battery 2 and the charging terminal 3. When the vehicle is required to be in driving mode, the power control system 1 can enable the high-voltage battery 2 to provide a power source for the vehicle so that the vehicle can operate normally. When the vehicle is required to be in charging mode, the charging terminal 3 charges the high-voltage battery 2 through the power control system 1. That is, the vehicle provided in this application can be charged and driven by a power control system 1. Here, it can be understood that the charging terminal 3 is an interface configured on the vehicle, and the vehicle can be connected to an external charging power source through the charging terminal 3 to charge the high-voltage battery 2 in the vehicle.

[0049] Optionally, the charging terminal 3 can be a single-phase AC terminal or a three-phase AC terminal. When the charging terminal 3 is a single-phase AC terminal, the charging terminal 3 is connected to a single-phase AC power supply; when the charging terminal 3 is a three-phase AC terminal, the charging terminal 3 is connected to a three-phase AC power supply. This application does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0050] In order to enable the present application to realize charging and driving based on a power control system 1, in one example, Figure 2 As shown, the power control system 1 may include a motor module 11, a single-switch correction module 12, a rectifier module 13 and a control module 14. The single-switch correction module 11 is connected to the motor module 11, the rectifier module 13 is connected to the single-switch correction module 12 and the high-voltage battery 2, and the control module 14 is connected to the motor module 11, the single-switch correction module 12, the rectifier module 13 and the charging terminal 3.

[0051] In this example, the control module 14 is used to obtain current information from the charging terminal 3 and, based on this current information, determine the operating mode that the power control system 1 currently needs to execute, thereby controlling the power control system 1 to operate in the corresponding operating mode, thereby ensuring the operational reliability of the power control system 1. It is worth noting that the operating modes of the power control system 1 generally include a first operating mode and a second operating mode. The first operating mode is a driving mode, in which the high-voltage battery 2 outputs AC power to the motor module 11 to drive the motor module 11; the second operating mode is a charging mode, in which the high-voltage battery 2 needs to be charged via the charging terminal 3.

[0052] For example, when the current information obtained by the control module 14 indicates that there is no current flowing through the charging terminal 3, the control module 14 determines based on the current information that the charging terminal 3 is not connected to the charging power source. This means that the control module 14 determines that the power control system 1 currently needs to execute the first operating mode (i.e., the drive mode). In the first operating mode, the control module 14 disconnects the motor module 11 from the branch containing the charging terminal 3 and bypasses the single-switch rectification module 12 and the rectifier module 13, allowing the high-voltage battery 2 to output voltage to the motor module 11, thereby enabling the power control system 1 to operate in the first operating mode.

[0053] For example, when the current information obtained by control module 14 indicates that current is flowing through charging terminal 3, control module 14 determines based on this current information that charging terminal 3 is connected to a charging power source. This means that control module 14 determines that power control system 1 currently needs to execute the second operating mode (i.e., charging mode). In the second operating mode, control module 14 controls motor module 11 to connect to the branch containing charging terminal 3, and simultaneously controls single-switch rectification module 12 and rectifier module 13 to operate. Charging terminal 3 outputs a voltage to high-voltage battery 2 via motor module 11, single-switch rectification module 12, and rectifier module 13, thereby enabling power control system 1 to operate in the second operating mode.

[0054] In this example, the control module 14 can obtain the current information of the charging terminal 3 in real time, so as to determine the working mode of the power control system 1 based on the current information, and adjust the on-off state of the branch where the motor module 11 and the charging terminal 3 are located and the working state of the rectifier module 13 accordingly, thereby realizing the adjustment and control of the working mode of the power control system 1, and the adjustment flexibility is relatively high. In this way, the present application can realize charging and driving based on a set of power control systems 1, without the need to set up independently operating drive systems and charging systems, thereby reducing the production cost, and at the same time reducing the occupied area of ​​the power control system 1 in the vehicle, thereby reducing the volume of the vehicle, reducing the weight of the vehicle, and thus improving the power density level, efficiency and performance of the vehicle. Moreover, in both the first working mode and the second working mode, the motor module 11 is in a working state, which improves the utilization rate of the motor module 11.

[0055] Here, it is worth noting that reactive power will cause the power factor of the power grid (i.e., single-phase AC power supply or three-phase AC power supply) to decrease, which does not meet the power grid standard. In addition, the motor module 11 is a nonlinear load. In the second working mode, the motor module 11 will cause the input current waveform provided by the charging terminal 3 to be distorted, thereby generating harmonics. These harmonics will not only increase the loss of the power grid, but also interfere with the normal operation of other circuit modules in the power control system 1. To this end, the power control system 1 provided by the present application also forms a power factor correction (PFC) circuit. In the second working mode, when the control module 14 controls the single-switch correction module 12 to work, the single-switch correction module 12 provided by the present application will form a PFC circuit together with the motor module 11. At this time, the AC power provided by the charging terminal 3 will be converted into DC power through the PFC circuit formed by the motor module 11 and the single-switch correction module 12, and then output voltage to the high-voltage battery 2 through the rectifier module 13.

[0056] In this example, the PFC circuit formed by the motor module 11 and the single-switch correction module 12 can adjust the input current provided by the charging terminal 3 so that the input current is in phase with the input voltage, thereby correcting the power factor to reduce the loss of reactive power, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the power control system 1. The PFC circuit can also reduce the harmonic components in the input current provided by the charging terminal 3 to reduce the loss of the power grid, thereby improving the charging reliability of the high-voltage battery 2 and the overall power utilization rate. Secondly, the PFC circuit formed by the single-switch correction module 12 and the motor module 11 can also reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) to improve the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of the power control system 1, thereby improving the working stability of the entire power control system 1 and improving the operating reliability of the vehicle.

[0057] In order to achieve real-time and accurate detection of the current information of the charging terminal 3, in one example, Figure 3 As shown, the control module 14 includes a detection unit 141 and a main control unit 142. The detection unit 141 is connected to the charging terminal 3. The detection unit 141 is used to detect the current information of the charging terminal 3 and generate a detection signal. The main control unit 142 is connected to the motor module 11, the rectifier module 13, the single switch correction module 12 and the detection unit 141. The main control unit 142 is used to receive the detection signal and control the power control system 1 to operate in the first working mode or the second working mode based on the detection signal.

[0058] In this example, when the detection unit 141 detects that there is no current at the charging terminal 3, the detection unit 141 will send a detection signal indicating that there is no current at the charging terminal 3 to the main control unit 142; when the detection unit 141 detects that there is current at the charging terminal 3, the detection unit 141 will send a detection signal indicating that there is current at the charging terminal 3 to the main control unit 142. The main control unit 142 can determine the operating mode of the power control system 1 based on the different detection signals and control the power control system 1 to operate in the corresponding operating mode based on the detection signal. The detection unit 141 can detect the current information of the charging terminal 3 in real time and send the detection signal corresponding to the current information to the main control unit 142, with high detection accuracy. The main control unit 142 can obtain the current operating mode of the power control system 1 in real time based on the detection signal and control the power control system 1 to operate in the corresponding operating mode, with high adjustment flexibility and control accuracy.

[0059] Optionally, the detection unit 141 may be a current transformer (CT), a Hall Effect Sensor (Hall Effect Sensor), an optocoupler (Optocoupler), or other circuits or devices capable of achieving the above functions, and this application does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0060] In one example, if Figure 4 As shown, the motor module 11 includes a driving motor 111 and a motor control unit 112. One end of the motor control unit 112 is connected to one end of the driving motor 111, and the other end of the motor control unit 112 is connected to the single switch correction module 12. The driving motor 111 and the motor control unit 112 are both connected to the control module 14.

[0061] For example, in the first operating mode, the drive motor 111 is disconnected from the branch circuit containing the charging terminal 3, the single-switch rectification module 12 and the rectifier module 13 are bypassed, and the high-voltage battery 2 outputs voltage to the drive motor 111 via the motor control unit 112. Simultaneously, the motor control unit 112 converts the DC power provided by the high-voltage battery 2 into three-phase AC power suitable for the operation of the drive motor 111 according to the target torque and speed input by the control module 14. This controls the drive motor 111 to perform functions such as starting, acceleration and deceleration, braking, and energy recovery, thereby ensuring normal operation of the vehicle. In the second operating mode, the drive motor 111 is connected to the branch circuit containing the charging terminal 3, the single-switch rectification module 12 and the rectifier module 13 are operational, and the single-switch rectification module 12, the drive motor 111, and the motor control unit 112 together form a PFC circuit. In this case, the AC power supply outputs voltage to the high-voltage battery 2 via the charging terminal 3, the drive motor 111, the motor control unit 112, the single-switch rectification module 12, and the rectifier module 13, thereby charging the high-voltage battery 2. In this example, the drive motor 111 and the motor control unit 112 both participate in the first working mode and the second working mode, thereby improving the utilization of the drive motor 111 and the motor control unit 112 .

[0062] Among them, such as Figure 4 As shown, the drive motor 111 includes three-phase windings (Lu, Lv, Lw), and the motor control unit 112 is composed of multiple groups of insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). Multiple IGBTs are respectively connected to the drive motor 111 including the three-phase windings (Lu, Lv, Lw), and the controlled ends of the multiple IGBTs are connected to the control module 14. In the first working mode, the three-phase winding (Lu, Lv, Lw) is disconnected from the branch where the charging port 3 is located, and multiple IGBTs will convert the DC power provided by the high-voltage battery 2 into three-phase AC power (U, V, W) to drive the drive motor 111 to operate; in the second working mode, the three-phase winding (Lu, Lv, Lw) is connected to the branch where the charging port 3 is located. At this time, the three-phase winding (Lu, Lv, Lw) acts as an inductor together with multiple IGBTs and a single-switch correction module 12 to form a PFC circuit to correct the power factor, thereby reducing the loss of reactive power and improving the overall efficiency of the power control system 1, so as to improve the charging reliability of the high-voltage battery 2 and the overall power utilization rate.

[0063] It is worth noting that in this example, when the AC power supply is a three-phase AC power supply, the three-phase windings (Lu, Lv, Lw), the multiple IGBTs corresponding to the three-phase windings (Lu, Lv, Lw), and the single-switch correction module 12 all participate in the PFC function; when the AC power supply is a single-phase AC power supply, the two windings (Lu, Lv) in the three-phase windings (Lu, Lv, Lw), the multiple IGBTs corresponding to the windings (Lu, Lv), and the single-switch correction module 12 participate in the PFC function. The multiple IGBTs here refer to the two half-bridges connected to the two windings (Lu, Lv) in the motor control unit 112. This application does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0064] The IGBT in the motor control unit 112 can support high currents and high voltages and is easy to switch. When the switching unit in the motor control unit 112 is an IGBT, the stability of the current in the connection line between the IGBT and the drive motor 111 can be guaranteed. At the same time, because the IGBT is easy to switch and operate, it has high flexibility in achieving high-frequency switching. The motor control unit 112 can also use a relay or other circuit with a switching function, and this application does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0065] In order to achieve precise control of multiple IGBTs in the motor control unit 112, in one example, Figure 4 As shown, the control module 14 may include a main control unit 142 and a first drive unit 143. The first drive unit 143 is connected to the main control unit 142 and the motor control unit 112. Here, it can be understood that the first drive unit 143 is connected to the controlled ends of multiple IGBTs in the motor control unit 112. The main control unit 142 can determine the working mode of the power control system 1 based on the current information, and realize precise control of multiple IGBTs through the first drive unit 143 to ensure the reliability of the power control system 1 operating in the corresponding working mode.

[0066] Optionally, the main control unit 142 may be a microcontroller unit (MCU), or may reuse other control units in the vehicle. This application does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0067] In order to achieve precise control of the on-off of the branch where the drive motor 111 and the charging terminal 3 are located, so as to achieve precise switching and control of the working mode of the power control system 1, in one example, Figure 5 As shown, the motor module 11 further includes a third switch unit 113, a first end of the third switch unit 113 and the other end of the drive motor 111 (such as Figure 5The three-phase winding is connected to one end of the third switching unit 113 away from the motor control unit 112, the second end of the third switching unit 113 is connected to the charging terminal 3, and the controlled end of the third switching unit 113 is connected to the control module 14. In this example, the control module 14 controls the on and off state of the third switching unit 113 to achieve precise control of the on and off of the branch where the drive motor 111 and the charging terminal 3 are located, and the control safety and flexibility are high.

[0068] For example, Figure 6 As shown, the third switch unit 113 includes a plurality of single-pole double-throw switches (SPDT), the first ends of the plurality of SPDT switches (ie, Figure 6 The circle "○" shown in FIG. 1 is connected to the other end of the drive motor 111, and the second ends of the multiple single-pole double-throw switches SPDT (ie, Figure 6 The triangle "△" shown in FIG. 1 is connected to the charging terminal 3, and the third end of the multiple single-pole double-throw switches SPDT (ie, Figure 6 The squares "□" shown in the figure are connected to each other to form a common node A, and the controlled ends of the multiple single-pole double-throw switches SPDT are connected to the control module 14. Figure 6 As shown, the number of single-pole double-throw switches SPDT corresponds to the number of three-phase windings (Lu, Lv, Lw) of the drive motor 111, that is, the third switch unit 113 can include three single-pole double-throw switches SPDT, and the first ends of the three single-pole double-throw switches SPDT are respectively connected one-to-one with the three-phase windings (Lu, Lv, Lw).

[0069] In the first operating mode, the control module 14 controls the first end of the single-pole double-throw switch SPDT to be connected to the third end of the single-pole double-throw switch SPDT, so that the drive motor 111 is disconnected from the branch where the charging terminal 3 is located. At this time, the third ends of multiple single-pole double-throw switches SPDT are interconnected to form a common node A, that is, at this time, the drive motor 111 operates normally as a motor. In the second operating mode, the control module 14 controls the first end of the single-pole double-throw switch SPDT to be connected to the second end of the single-pole double-throw switch SPDT, so that the drive motor 111 is connected to the branch where the charging terminal 3 is located. At this time, the three-phase winding (Lu, Lv, Lw) acts as an inductor and together with the multiple IGBTs in the motor control unit 112 and the single-switch correction module 12 constitute a PFC circuit. The AC power provided by the AC power supply will be output to the high-voltage battery 2 through the charging terminal 3, the PFC circuit, and the rectifier module 13. When the third switch unit 113 adopts a single-pole double-throw switch SPDT, it can achieve the purpose of connecting one input to one of two different output paths, so as to realize flexible switching of the branch where the drive motor 111 and the charging terminal 3 are located. Compared with using multiple ordinary switches, the single-pole double-throw switch can reduce the number of required components to simplify the circuit layout, making the power control system 1 more compact, while further reducing the production cost.

[0070] In order to achieve precise control of multiple single-pole double-throw switches SPDT in the third switch unit 113, in one example, Figure 6 As shown, the control module 14 may further include a second drive unit 144, which is connected to the main control unit 142 and the third switch unit 113. Here, it can be understood that the second drive unit 144 is connected to the controlled ends of multiple single-pole double-throw switches SPDT in the third switch unit 113. The main control unit 142 can determine the working mode of the power control system 1 based on the acquired current information, and realize precise control of multiple single-pole double-throw switches SPDT through the second drive unit 144 to ensure the reliability of the power control system 1 operating in the corresponding working mode.

[0071] In one example, if Figure 7 As shown, the power control system 1 may further include a filter module 15, one end of which is connected to the charging terminal 3, and the other end of the filter module 3 is connected to the second end of the first switch unit 113. During AC power transmission, interference may occur, generating harmonics. The filter module 15 can filter out these high-frequency harmonics to reduce voltage and current waveform distortion, thereby protecting other electrical equipment in the power control system 1 from damage. Simultaneously, the filter module 15 can effectively suppress and filter out electromagnetic interference signals generated in the circuits of the power control system 1, protecting other sensitive electronic equipment within the vehicle from external electromagnetic noise.

[0072] Optionally, the filtering module 15 may be an electromagnetic interference filter (EMI filter) or other circuits or devices capable of achieving the above functions, and this application does not impose any specific limitation on this.

[0073] In order to achieve flexible control of the working state of the single switch correction module 12, in one example, please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The single-switch correction module 12 includes a first switch unit 121 and a second switch unit 122. The first end of the first switch unit 121 is connected to the first end of the motor module 11, the second end of the first switch unit 121 is connected to the first end of the rectifier module 13, the controlled end of the first switch unit 121 is connected to the control module 14, the first end of the second switch unit 122 is connected to the first end of the first switch unit 121 and the first end of the motor module 11, the second end of the second switch unit 122 is connected to the second end of the motor module 11 and the second end of the rectifier module 13, and the controlled end of the second switch unit 122 is connected to the control module 14. Figure 9 As shown, when the motor module 11 includes a driving motor 111 and a motor control unit 112 , the first end of the first switch unit 121 and the second switch unit 122 are connected to the motor control unit 112 .

[0074] For example, in the first operating mode, the drive motor 111 is disconnected from the branch circuit where the charging terminal 3 is located. The control module 14 controls the first switch unit 121 to be conductive and the second switch unit 122 to be disconnected, thereby bypassing the single-switch correction module 12. The high-voltage battery 2 outputs voltage to the drive motor 111 via the motor control unit 112, allowing the vehicle to operate normally. In the second operating mode, the drive motor 111 is connected to the branch circuit where the charging terminal 3 is located. The control module 14 controls the first switch unit 121 to be disconnected and the second switch unit 122 to be intermittently conductive, so that the single-switch correction module 12, the drive motor 111, and the motor control unit 112 together form a PFC circuit. In this case, the AC power supply outputs voltage to the high-voltage battery 2 via the charging terminal 3, the drive motor 111, the motor control unit 112, the second switch unit 122, and the rectifier module 13, thereby charging the high-voltage battery 2.

[0075] In this example, in different operating modes, the control module 14 controls the on / off states of the first switch unit 121 and the second switch unit 122 to correspondingly control whether the single-switch correction module 12 is bypassed or in operation, thereby achieving precise control of the single-switch correction module 12. Secondly, in the second operating mode, the control module 14 controls the intermittent conduction of the second switch unit 122 to control the waveform of the input current provided by the charging terminal 3 so that the waveform of the input current can be consistent with the waveform of the input voltage, so that the phase difference between the input current and the input voltage is zero, thereby correcting the power factor. In addition, the intermittent conduction of the second switch unit 122 can effectively reduce the harmonic components in the input current, thereby reducing power grid losses.

[0076] In order to achieve precise control of the first switch unit 121 and the second switch unit 122, in one example, Figure 9 As shown, the control module 14 may further include a third drive unit 145, which is connected to the main control unit 142, the controlled end of the first switch unit 121, and the controlled end of the second switch unit 122. The main control unit 142 can determine the operating mode of the power control system 1 based on the current information and accurately control the first switch unit 121 and the second switch unit 122 through the third drive unit 145, so that the single switch correction module 12 is bypassed or enabled to operate, thereby ensuring the reliability of the power control system 1 operating in the corresponding operating mode.

[0077] Optionally, the first switch unit 121 can be any one of a hardware switch, a metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) field effect transistor, a triode, an insulated gate bipolar transistor, and a relay, wherein the MOS field effect transistor can be an N-type metal oxide semiconductor (N-Metal Oxide Semiconductor, NMOS) field effect transistor or a P-type metal oxide semiconductor (P-Metal Oxide Semiconductor, PMOS) field effect transistor. The first switch unit 121 can also be other devices or circuits that can achieve on-off functions. This application does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0078] Optionally, the second switch unit 122 may be a hardware switch, a MOS field effect transistor, a triode, an insulated gate bipolar transistor, a relay, or other devices or circuits capable of achieving on-off functions, and this application does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0079] For example, Figure 10As shown, the first switch unit 121 includes a first switch tube Q1, which is an NMOS. The second switch unit 122 includes a second switch tube Q2, which is an NMOS. The source of the first switch tube Q1 is connected to the drain of the second switch tube Q2 and the motor control unit 112, the drain of the first switch tube Q1 is connected to the first end of the rectifier module 13, the gate of the first switch tube Q1 is connected to the third drive unit 145, the drain of the second switch tube Q2 is connected to the motor control unit 112 and the second end of the rectifier module 13, and the gate of the second switch tube Q2 is connected to the third drive unit 145.

[0080] For example, Figure 11 As shown, the first switch unit 121 includes a first switch SW, the second switch unit 122 includes a second switch tube Q2, the second switch tube Q2 is an NMOS, the first end of the first switch SW is connected to the drain of the second switch tube Q2 and the motor control unit 112, the second end of the first switch SW is connected to the first end of the rectifier module 13, the controlled end of the first switch SW is connected to the third drive unit 145, the drain of the second switch tube Q2 is connected to the motor control unit 112 and the second end of the rectifier module 13, and the gate of the second switch tube Q2 is connected to the third drive unit 145.

[0081] In this example, Figure 11 As shown, the single-switch correction module 12 may further include a diode D. The anode of the diode D is connected to the first end of the second switch unit 122 (i.e., the drain of the second switch tube Q2) and the first end of the first switch unit 121 (i.e., the first end of the first switch SW), and the cathode of the diode D is connected to the second end of the first switch unit 121 (i.e., the second end of the first switch SW) and the first end of the rectifier module 13. The diode D has a unidirectional conductive characteristic. When the second switch tube Q2 is intermittently turned on in the second operating mode, the diode D can prevent reverse current and voltage spikes in the circuit from causing damage to the second switch tube Q2 and other components in the branch, thereby ensuring the reliability of the second switch tube Q2 and other components in the branch.

[0082] In order to achieve flexible control of the working state of the rectifier module 13, in one example, Figure 12 As shown, the rectifier module 13 includes a full-bridge topology unit 131 and a fourth switch unit 132. The first end and the second end of the full-bridge topology unit 131 are connected to the high-voltage battery 2. The third end and the fourth end of the full-bridge topology unit 122 are connected to the single-switch correction module 12. The first end of the fourth switch unit 132 is connected to the first end of the full-bridge topology unit 131. The second end of the fourth switch unit 132 is connected to the third end of the full-bridge topology unit 131. The controlled end of the fourth switch unit 132 is connected to the main control unit 142.

[0083] In order to achieve precise control of the fourth switch unit 132, as shown in FIG. Figure 12 As shown, the control module 14 may further include a fourth drive unit 146, which is connected to the main control unit 142 and the fourth switch unit 132. Here, it can be understood that the fourth drive unit 146 is connected to the controlled ends of multiple switches in the fourth switch unit 132. The main control unit 142 can determine the working mode of the power control system 1 based on the detection signal, and realize precise control of the on and off of multiple switches in the fourth switch unit 132 through the fourth drive unit 146 to ensure the reliability of the power control system 1 operating in the corresponding working mode.

[0084] In the first operating mode, the main control unit 142 controls the fourth switch unit 132 to conduct, thereby bypassing the full-bridge topology unit 131. That is, in the driving mode, the full-bridge topology unit 131 does not participate in the driving process between the high-voltage battery 2 and the motor module 11. In the second operating mode, the main control unit 142 controls the fourth switch unit 132 to be turned off, and the full-bridge topology unit 131 is in operation. That is, in the charging mode, the full-bridge topology unit 131 participates in the charging process between the charging terminal 3 and the high-voltage battery 2. In this way, the main control unit 142 can achieve precise control of the operating state of the full-bridge topology unit 131 by controlling the on and off of the fourth switch unit 132, and the control is highly secure and flexible.

[0085] Optional, such as Figure 12 As shown, the full-bridge topology unit 131 can be a full-bridge circuit (Full Bridge), which is composed of four switching devices, and these four switching devices are symmetrically arranged between the positive and negative poles of the high-voltage battery 2 to achieve bidirectional conversion of electrical energy, wherein the controlled ends of the four switching devices are all connected to the fourth driving unit 146.

[0086] The vehicle is usually provided with a low-voltage battery 4, which is used to power the low-voltage system in the vehicle. In order to enable the low-voltage battery 4 to provide power normally, in one example, Figure 13 As shown, the power control system 1 also includes a transformer T and a DC conversion module 16. The primary coil of the transformer T is connected to the fifth and sixth ends of the full-bridge topology unit 131. One end of the DC conversion module 16 is connected to the secondary coil of the transformer T, and the other end of the DC conversion module 16 is connected to the low-voltage battery 4.

[0087] In the first operating mode, the control module 14 disconnects the drive motor 111 from the branch connecting the charging terminal 3, allowing the drive motor 111 to operate normally as a motor. The control module 14 turns on the first and fourth switch units 121 and 132, and off the second switch unit 122, bypassing the full-bridge topology unit 131 of the single-switch correction module 12. The high-voltage battery 2 outputs voltage to the drive motor 111 via the fourth and first switch units 132 and 121. Simultaneously, the motor control unit 112 converts the DC power from the high-voltage battery 2 into three-phase AC power suitable for the drive motor 111, based on the target torque and speed transmitted by the first drive unit 143. This allows the drive motor 111 to perform functions such as starting, acceleration, deceleration, braking, and energy recovery, thereby ensuring normal vehicle operation. In this state, the full-bridge topology unit 131 does not participate in the driving process between the high-voltage battery 2 and the motor module 11. Instead, it forms a phase-shifted full-bridge circuit with the transformer T and the DC conversion module 16 to charge the low-voltage battery 4.

[0088] In the second operating mode, the control module 14 controls the drive motor 111 to connect to the branch where the charging terminal 3 is located. In this mode, the control module 14 controls the first switch unit 121 to be turned off and the second switch unit 122 to be intermittently turned on. The three-phase windings (Lu, Lv, Lw) act as inductors, together with the multiple IGBTs in the motor control unit 112 and the second switch unit 122, to form a PFC circuit. The control module 14 controls the fourth switch unit 132 to be turned off, thereby enabling the full-bridge topology unit 131 to operate. This means that the full-bridge topology unit 131 participates in the charging process between the charging terminal 3 and the high-voltage battery 2. The AC power provided by the three-phase AC power source or the single-phase AC power source is converted to DC power by the PFC circuit. To ensure that the converted DC power matches the ideal charging voltage of the high-voltage battery 2, the DC power is voltage-matched by the buck-boost circuit formed by the full-bridge topology unit 131 and the primary coil of the transformer T. This ensures that the DC power ultimately output by the full-bridge topology unit 131 to the high-voltage battery 2 is suitable for the high-voltage battery 2, thereby preventing overcharging or undercharging from the external AC power source and ensuring reliable charging of the high-voltage battery 2.

[0089] It is worth noting here that in the first working mode and the second working mode, the main control unit 142 in the control module 14 will control the first drive unit 143, the second drive unit 144, the third drive unit 145 and the fourth drive unit 146 according to the preset control logic, so as to correspondingly drive and change the on and off of the corresponding switches in the motor control unit 112, the third switch unit 113, the first switch unit 121, the second switch unit 122, the fourth switch unit 132 and the full-bridge topology unit 131, so as to realize power factor correction, DC conversion and other functions, so that the motor control unit 112, the third switch unit 113, the first switch unit 121, the second switch unit 122, the fourth switch unit 132 and the full-bridge topology unit 131 can operate in the current working mode. No further details will be given on this.

[0090] In one example, if Figure 14 As shown, the DC conversion module 16 may include a step-down unit 161, a third switch tube Q3 and a fourth switch tube Q4. The first end of the step-down unit 161 is connected to the low-voltage battery 4, the first end of the third switch tube Q3 is connected to the second end of the step-down unit 161, the second end of the third switch tube Q3 is connected to the secondary coil of the transformer T, the controlled end of the third switch tube Q3 is connected to the control module 14, the first end of the fourth switch tube Q4 is connected to the first end of the third switch tube Q3 and the second end of the step-down unit 161, the second end of the fourth switch tube Q4 is connected to the secondary coil of the transformer T, and the controlled end of the fourth switch tube Q4 is connected to the control module 14.

[0091] In order to avoid the problem of charging failure of the low-voltage battery 4 caused by the conflict between the circuit for charging the low-voltage battery 4 and the circuit for charging the low-voltage battery 4 after the transformer T, the transformer T provided in the present application has a relatively high transformation ratio, that is, the turns ratio between the primary and secondary of the transformer T is designed to be relatively large. This ensures that under the lowest voltage received by the primary coil of the transformer T, after the boosting effect of the transformer T, the voltage of the secondary coil can still reach or exceed the minimum operating voltage required by the low-voltage battery 4 connected thereto. For example, the voltage value at the connection point B of the third switch tube Q3 and the fourth switch tube Q4 in the second operating mode is not less than the voltage required to charge the low-voltage battery 4. If the voltage after the boost of the transformer T is too high, the voltage can be further reduced to a voltage that meets the operating voltage of the low-voltage battery 4 by the step-down unit 161 to achieve voltage matching. In this way, even if the voltage of the primary coil of the transformer T fluctuates, it can ensure that the voltage delivered to the low-voltage battery 4 and the low-voltage electrical equipment is sufficient to maintain normal charging or power supply of the low-voltage battery 4 and the low-voltage electrical equipment, avoiding low charging efficiency or equipment failure due to insufficient voltage, thereby improving the charging and power supply reliability of the low-voltage battery 4. It is worth noting that the transformation ratio value of the transformer T is set to a higher value and can also be applied to the first working mode.

[0092] In this example, the power control system 1 provided in this application can reliably supply power to the low-voltage battery 4 and low-voltage electrical equipment while completing the driving mode and charging mode in a time-sharing manner, so as to ensure the operating reliability of the low-voltage battery 4 and the low-voltage electrical equipment connected to the low-voltage battery 4.

[0093] For example, Figure 14 As shown, the step-down unit 161 can be a step-down converter (BUCK), which includes a second capacitor C2, an inductor L, a fifth switch tube Q5 and a sixth switch tube Q6. The first plate of the second capacitor C2 is connected to one end of the inductor L and the low-voltage battery 4, the other end of the inductor L is connected to the first end of the fifth switch tube Q5 and the first end of the sixth switch tube Q6, the second end of the fifth switch tube Q5 is connected to the first end of the third switch tube Q3 and the first end of the fourth switch tube Q4, and the second end of the sixth switch tube Q6 is connected to the secondary coil of the transformer T, the second plate of the second capacitor C2 and the low-voltage battery 4.

[0094] In the first working mode, the control module 14 controls the fifth switch tube Q5 and the sixth switch tube Q6 to remain turned on, so that the full-bridge topology unit 131 can form a phase-shifted full-bridge circuit with the transformer T and the third switch tube Q3 and the fourth switch tube Q4 to charge the low-voltage battery 4.

[0095] In order to achieve precise control of the on / off of the third switch tube Q3, the fourth switch tube Q4, the fifth switch tube Q5 and the sixth switch tube Q6 in the DC conversion module 16, in one example, Figure 14 As shown, the control module 14 may further include a fifth drive unit 147, which is connected to the main control unit 142 and the DC conversion module 16. Here, it can be understood that the fifth drive unit 147 is connected to the controlled ends of the third switch tube Q3, the fourth switch tube Q4, the fifth switch tube Q5 and the sixth switch tube Q6 in the DC conversion module 16. The main control unit 142 can determine the working mode of the power control system 1 based on the detection signal, and realize precise control of the on and off of the third switch tube Q3, the fourth switch tube Q4, the fifth switch tube Q5 and the sixth switch tube Q6 through the fifth drive unit 147 to ensure the reliability of the power control system 1 operating in the corresponding working mode.

[0096] Optionally, the third switch tube Q3, the fourth switch tube Q4, the fifth switch tube Q5 and the sixth switch tube Q6 and the switches in the above-mentioned other modules / units can be NMOS field-effect transistors, PMOS field-effect transistors, IGBTs, triodes, relay circuits or other devices or circuits that can achieve on-off functions. This application does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0097] Optionally, the DC conversion module 16 may also adopt other circuits capable of achieving the above functions, and this application does not impose any specific limitation on this.

[0098] In one example, if Figure 15 As shown, the power control system 1 also includes a pre-charging module 17 and a first capacitor C1. One end of the pre-charging module 17 is connected to the positive electrode of the high-voltage battery 2. The first plate of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the other end of the pre-charging module 17 and the rectifier module 13. The second plate of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the negative electrode of the high-voltage battery 2.

[0099] Among them, the first capacitor C1 is a bus capacitor. When the charging terminal 3 is not connected to the AC power supply, there is no current at both ends of the bus capacitor and the voltage is zero. When the charging terminal 3 is connected to the AC power supply, in order to avoid the high-voltage power grid directly charging the bus capacitor, causing the bus capacitor to be burned or even tripping, the pre-charging module 17 provided in this application can pre-charge the first capacitor C1 to improve the safety of the connection between the charging terminal 3 and the AC power supply and the output voltage of the high-voltage battery 2, thereby ensuring the operation reliability of the power control system 1.

[0100] In one example, if Figure 16As shown, the pre-charge module 17 includes a resistor R, a fifth switch unit 171 and a sixth switch unit 172, one end of the resistor R is connected to the positive electrode of the high-voltage battery 5, the first end of the fifth switch unit 171 is connected to the other end of the resistor R, the second end of the fifth switch unit 171 is connected to the first plate of the first capacitor C1, the controlled end of the fifth switch unit 171 is connected to the control module 14 (not shown in the figure), the first end of the sixth switch unit 172 is connected to the positive electrode of the high-voltage battery 2, the second end of the sixth switch unit 172 is connected to the first plate of the first capacitor C1 and the rectifier module 12, and the controlled end of the sixth switch unit 172 is connected to the control module 14 (not shown in the figure).

[0101] In both the first and second operating modes, the control module 14 turns on the fifth switch unit 171 and turns off the sixth switch unit 172, allowing the high-voltage battery 2 to pre-charge the first capacitor C1 via the resistor R and the fifth switch unit 171. At this point, the voltage output by the high-voltage battery 2 is pre-charged and current-limited via the resistor R before flowing to the first capacitor C1. When pre-charging is complete, the control module 14 turns off the fifth switch unit 171 and turns on the sixth switch unit 172, then controls the on / off of the corresponding switches based on the current operating mode.

[0102] In order to achieve precise control of the fifth switch unit 171 and the sixth switch unit 172, in one example, the control module 14 may also include a sixth drive unit (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the main control unit 142, the fifth switch unit 171 and the controlled end of the sixth switch unit 172. The main control unit 142 can determine the working mode of the power control system 1 based on the detection signal, and control the on and off of the fifth switch unit 171 and the sixth switch unit 172 through the sixth drive unit to achieve pre-charging, thereby improving the safety of the connection between the charging terminal 3 and the AC power supply and the output voltage of the high-voltage battery 2, thereby ensuring the operational reliability of the power control system 1.

[0103] In summary, the present application can achieve charging and driving based on a single power control system 1, eliminating the need for independently operating drive and charging systems. This reduces manufacturing costs and reduces the footprint of the power control system 1 within the vehicle, thereby reducing the vehicle's size and weight, and thereby improving the vehicle's power density, efficiency, and performance. Furthermore, in both the first and second operating modes, the motor module 11 is in operation, improving the utilization of the motor module 11.
