[0002] In the current battery field, a battery pack is composed of many cells connected in series and in parallel. Multiple cells are first connected in series to form a basic cell cluster, and more cell clusters are connected in series and in parallel to form a battery system with higher voltage or larger capacity. Therefore, the difference in charge of the single cell greatly affects the operating efficiency of the battery pack, so adding a balancing circuit to the battery pack is an indispensable measure.
[0003] The active balancing methods currently used in battery management systems mainly include capacitor, inductor, and transformer. Using capacitors or inductors as energy storage elements, or through transformers, part of the energy of high-voltage cells or clusters is transferred to low-voltage cells or clusters to balance the charge status of each cell or cluster, avoid short boards, and thus improve the charging and discharging efficiency of the entire battery pack.
[0004] Although active balancing charging and discharging has high efficiency, the cost of implementation is still relatively high. Whether it is capacitive, inductive, or through a transformer DCDC bidirectional conversion method, the circuit is relatively complex, difficult to control, and has low reliability. Some also encounter problems such as slow balancing speed and low efficiency. Therefore, active balancing in battery management systems is rarely used. Summary of the invention

[0033] In this embodiment, the cell inverter modules are all half-bridge circuit inverters or full-bridge circuit inverters; the cell inverter modules are all voltage phase controlled by the microprocessor unit. The output ends of the half-bridge circuit inverter or the full-bridge circuit inverter in each cell inverter module are connected in parallel to form the cell cluster AC bus.

The AC voltages of the half-bridge circuit inverter or the full-bridge circuit inverter located on the same battery cluster AC bus are of the same frequency.
[0035] Specifically, Figure 1As shown, each battery cell cluster is composed of multiple battery cells (C0, C1, C2...Cn-1, Cn) connected in series, and each battery cell has a battery cell inverter module connected thereto. Each battery cell cluster has a battery cell cluster inverter module. The battery cell inverter module and the battery cell cluster inverter module can both adopt a half-bridge circuit inverter or a full-bridge circuit inverter. In order to reduce the number of components in the circuit, in this embodiment, the battery cell inverter module and the battery cell cluster inverter module are both described using a half-bridge circuit inverter.
[0036] In a cell cluster, the two ends (C0, C1) of the first cell are respectively connected to a cell half-bridge circuit inverter. Specifically, the cell half-bridge circuit inverter includes a cell transformer Tz1, a cell resonant inductor Lsz1, a cell high-level resonant capacitor Csz1-b, a cell low-level resonant capacitor Csz1-a, a cell high-level inverter switch tube QHz1, a cell low-level inverter switch tube QLz1, a cell high-level driver Drz1-b, and a cell low-level driver Drz1-a;
[0037] The battery cell high-level inverter switch tube QHz1 is controlled by the battery cell high-level driver Drz1-b to be turned on or off; the battery cell low-level inverter switch tube QLz1 is controlled by the battery cell low-level driver Drz1-a to be turned on or off; the battery cell high-level driver Drz1-b and the battery cell low-level driver Drz1-a are respectively connected to the H1-Drv drive output terminal and the L1-Drv drive output terminal of the microprocessor unit to receive the drive signal of the microprocessor unit; the primary coil of the battery cell transformer Tz1 is connected to the battery cell resonant inductor Lsz1, the battery cell high-level resonant capacitor Csz1-b, the battery cell low-level resonant capacitor Csz1-a, the battery cell high-level inverter switch tube QHz1 and the battery cell low-level inverter switch tube QLz1.
[0038] That is, the cell high-level resonant capacitor Csz1-b and the cell low-level resonant capacitor Csz1-a are connected in series to the C0 and C1 ends of the first cell; the gate of the cell high-level inverter switch tube QHz1 is connected to the cell high-level driver Drz1-b, and the cell high-level driver Drz1-b is connected to the first cell high-level H1-Drv drive output end of the microprocessor unit; the gate of the cell low-level inverter switch tube QLz1 is connected to the cell low-level driver Drz 1-a, the battery low level driver Drz1-a is connected to the first battery low level L1-Drv driving output end of the microprocessor unit; the battery high level resonant capacitor Csz1-b and the battery low level resonant capacitor Csz1-a form a bridge with the battery high level inverter switch tube QHz1 and the battery low level inverter switch tube QLz1, and the diagonal of the bridge is connected to the primary coil of the battery transformer Tz1, and the primary coil of the battery transformer Tz1 is also connected to the battery resonant inductor Lsz1. The secondary coil of the battery transformer Tz1 outputs AC power.
[0039] The secondary coils of the cell transformer Tz1 of each cell are connected in parallel to form the cell cluster AC bus.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the cell cluster inverter module includes two cell cluster half-bridge circuit inverters, namely, the first cell cluster half-bridge circuit inverter and the second cell cluster half-bridge circuit inverter. The first cell cluster half-bridge circuit inverter includes the first cell cluster high-level inverter switch tube QHc1, the first cell cluster low-level inverter switch tube QLc1, the first cell cluster high-level resonant capacitor Csc1-b and the first cell cluster low-level resonant capacitor Csc1-a.

The first battery cell cluster high-level driver Drc1-b and the first battery cell cluster low-level driver Drc1-a are respectively connected to the Hc1-Drv drive output terminal and the Lc1-Drv drive output terminal of the microprocessor unit.

The primary coil of the cell cluster transformer Tc1 is also connected to the cell cluster resonant inductor Lsc1.
[0043] The secondary coils of the cell cluster transformer Tc1 of each cell cluster are connected in parallel to form the battery cluster AC bus. The battery cluster AC bus outputs current as a total output, and the battery cluster AC bus includes a positive terminal Cbus+ and a negative terminal Cbus-.
[0044] The gate of the second battery cell cluster high-level inverter switch tube QHc2 is connected to the second battery cell cluster high-level driver Drc2-b, and the gate of the second battery cell cluster low-level inverter switch tube QLc2 is connected to the second battery cell cluster low-level driver Drc2-a. The second battery cell cluster high-level driver Drc2-b and the second battery cell cluster low-level driver Drc2-a are respectively connected to the Hc2-Drv drive output terminal and Lc2-Drv drive output terminal of the microprocessor unit.
[0045] The working principle of the bidirectional active balancing circuit of the battery management system provided in this embodiment is as follows:
[0046] In this embodiment, in each of the battery cell clusters, the voltage in the AC bus of the battery cell cluster is inverted into AC power through the control of the half-bridge circuit inverter of the first battery cell cluster, and the voltage on the AC bus is isolated and stepped down through the battery cell cluster transformer Tc1 and added to the output end of the half-bridge circuit inverter of each battery cell. The transformation ratio of the battery cell cluster transformer Tc1 is the number of series-connected batteries in the battery cluster.
[0047] When the electric power of the electric cells in the same electric cell cluster is discharged to the electric cell cluster AC bus in the electric cell cluster, the AC voltage output by the electric cell inverter module is controlled to lead the AC bus output by the electric cell cluster inverter module by a phase angle θ;
[0048] When the cell cluster AC bus in the same cell cluster charges the cells in the cell cluster, the AC voltage output by the cell inverter module is controlled to lag behind the AC bus output by the cell cluster inverter module by a phase angle θ.
[0049] Specifically, the half-bridge circuit inverter of each cell also inverts the cell voltage into an AC voltage. Since the voltage difference between the cells is small, generally only a few tenths of a volt, the amplitude of the AC bus voltage after being stepped down by the cell cluster transformer is similar to the output amplitude of the half-bridge circuit inverter of each cell, and is temporarily considered to be equal to VB / 2. If a full-bridge architecture is used, the amplitude is VB. Here, VB is the voltage of the single cell.
[0050] When the power of a single battery cell is high and the energy needs to be transferred to the AC bus, the AC power output by the half-bridge circuit inverter of the battery cell can lead the half-bridge circuit inverter of the first battery cell cluster by a phase angle θ. The phase causes a voltage difference V=VB*SQRT(1-COS(θ)), and this voltage difference is added to the series network of the battery cell's resonant inductor Lszn and the battery cell's resonant capacitor Cszn.
[0051] The resonant frequency of the series network of the resonant inductor Lszn and the resonant capacitor Cszn of the battery cell is lower than the inverter frequency, so the current on the resonant inductor Lszn of the battery cell will lag 90 degrees, and the phase difference between it and the output of the half-bridge circuit inverter of the battery cell is equal to θ / 2. When the phase difference is less than 90 degrees, the output power P=V*I*Cos(θ / 2) of the half-bridge circuit inverter of the battery cell is positive, and the battery cell discharges and transmits energy to the AC bus. Generally, in order to avoid too much reactive current to reduce efficiency, the lead angle θ is generally controlled within 45 degrees.
[0052] On the contrary, when the capacity of a battery cell is low and needs to be charged, the phase of the half-bridge circuit inverter of the battery cell will lag behind the half-bridge circuit inverter of the first battery cell cluster by a phase angle θ. At this time, the output power P of the half-bridge circuit inverter of the battery cell is negative, and the battery cell absorbs energy from the AC bus to charge.
[0053] For a battery cell that does not require power balancing in the circuit, the half-bridge circuit inverter of the battery cell and the half-bridge circuit inverter of the first battery cell cluster in the battery cell cluster are set to be in phase, or the drivers of the half-bridge circuit inverter of the battery cell and the half-bridge circuit inverter of the first battery cell cluster in the battery cell cluster are directly turned off.
[0054] If several half-bridge circuit inverters of battery cells are working at the same time, some are configured to lead and some are configured to lag, energy can be transferred directly between the half-bridge circuit inverters of several battery cells, and the switch tube QHc1 / QLc1 in the half-bridge circuit inverter of the first battery cell cluster in the battery cell cluster can be turned off.
[0055] The circuit and principle of balancing between cell clusters are the same as those of balancing between cells, except that at least two cell clusters are required for balancing. For cell clusters that do not need to be balanced, it is only necessary to turn off the switch tube QHc2 / QLc2 in the half-bridge circuit inverter of the second cell cluster in the cell cluster.
[0056] The present application provides a bidirectional active balancing circuit for a battery management system. In each cell cluster, each cell inverts direct current into alternating current through a cell inverter module, and then connects the alternating current inverted by the cell inverter module to the cell cluster AC busbar of the cell cluster in parallel through the cell cluster inverter module. The alternating current between cell clusters is also converted into alternating current through the cell cluster inverter module and then connected in parallel to the battery cluster AC busbar of the battery cluster. By adjusting the phase difference between the cell inverter module and the cell cluster inverter module, the direction and magnitude of energy transfer can be controlled: for single cells or cell clusters that need to be balanced, only need to turn on their inverter modules and adjust the appropriate phase to achieve charging or discharging, and achieve power balance between cells or cell clusters; and for single cells or cell clusters that do not need to be balanced, only need to turn off the corresponding inverter modules. The present application provides a battery management system with a bidirectional active balancing circuit architecture that is simple and easy to control; each cell cluster unit can be independently balanced off-grid or synchronously balanced on-grid, which can speed up the balancing speed; the bidirectional active balancing circuit has strong scalability and is particularly suitable for applications where multiple cell clusters are connected in series or in parallel or where plugging and unplugging is required.
