[0019] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0020] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solutions of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 , which shows a schematic diagram of an implementation environment provided by an embodiment of the present application, the implementation environment includes a transportation vehicle 100, and the transportation vehicle 100 can be a vehicle, an aircraft, etc. In the embodiment of the present application, only the transportation vehicle 100 is taken as an example for explanation. Specifically, the transportation vehicle 100 is a new energy vehicle.

[0022] Combined with reference Figure 2 , which shows the system architecture of a transportation vehicle 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application, and the transportation vehicle 100 includes a vehicle control unit (VCU), a battery, a DC-DC, an intelligent body controller (IBCM) and low-voltage electrical equipment. Among them, the low-voltage electrical equipment includes a seat ventilation and heating module, a blower and an electronic fan.

[0023] The VCU is connected to the battery, DC-DC, IBCM and low-voltage electrical equipment through buses to achieve data transmission. For example, the battery reports its own operating current and voltage to the VCU, the IBCM reports the power level signal of the transportation vehicle 100 to the VCU, the DC-DC reports its own low-voltage voltage, current and power to the VCU, and the VCU sends a power limit signal and power limit level to the low-voltage electrical equipment.

[0024] In an embodiment of the present application, the VCU obtains the operating parameters of the battery during the driving of the transportation vehicle, and detects whether the battery is in a discharge state based on the operating parameters of the battery. If the battery is in a discharge state for a long time, the low-voltage electrical equipment is controlled to enter a power limiting mode to reduce the operating power of the low-voltage electrical equipment. In extreme power demand scenarios, the power demand of the entire vehicle is reduced, avoiding the risk of battery depletion due to insufficient rated power of the DC-DC, and will not bring about additional DC-DC cost increases.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 3 , which shows a flow chart of a power control method shown in an embodiment of the present application. The method includes the following process.

[0026] S201, obtaining the operating parameters of the battery.

[0027] The operating parameters of the battery include the operating current of the battery and / or the operating voltage of the battery. In some embodiments, the transportation vehicle includes a battery management system, and the battery management system includes a current sensor. The current sensor periodically detects the operating current of the battery and the operating voltage of the battery, and sends the detection data to the VCU. The detection period of the current sensor can be set based on experiments or experience, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this. For example, the detection period of the current sensor is 50ms.

[0028] S202: Determine the working state of the battery based on the working parameters of the battery.

[0029] The working state of the battery includes a charging state and a discharging state. Optionally, the VCU determines whether the battery is in a charging state or a discharging state according to the working current of the battery. Specifically, when the working current of the battery is a negative value, it indicates that the battery is in a discharging state, and when the working current of the battery is a positive value, it indicates that the battery is in a charging state.

[0030] S203: When the battery is in a discharging state for a period longer than a first preset period, control the target electrical device to enter a power limiting mode.

[0031] The first preset time length is set according to experiments or experience, and illustratively, the preset time length is 30 minutes.

[0032] The target electrical equipment refers to low-voltage electrical equipment in the vehicle, such as lighting systems, air conditioning and heating systems, auxiliary driving systems (cameras, radars, etc.), electric windows, wipers, multimedia devices, etc. In the embodiment of the present application, only the target electrical equipment is seat ventilation and heating modules, blowers, and electronic fans as examples for explanation.

[0033] In some embodiments, the target power-consuming device can be set by the developer, can be set by the user, or can be set automatically by the transportation vehicle. The following is an explanation of the process of user-defined setting of the target power-consuming device. Optionally, the transportation vehicle provides a setting interface for the power-limiting mode, which includes multiple low-voltage power-consuming devices. The user can select a low-voltage power-consuming device as the target power-consuming device that needs to be power-limited according to his or her own usage requirements.

[0034] The limited power of the target power-consuming device in the limited power mode should be less than its maximum working power in the normal mode. The working power of the target power-consuming device in the limited power mode is less than or equal to the above limited power.

[0035] In some embodiments, the transportation vehicle also obtains the temperature of its own environment, and controls the target electrical equipment to enter a power-limiting mode when the temperature of its own environment is greater than the first temperature or less than the second temperature. The first temperature is greater than the second temperature. For example, the first temperature is 30°C and the second temperature is 0°C. Since the rated power of the DC-DC usually cannot meet the power demand of the entire vehicle in extreme environments, in this embodiment, it is first detected whether the vehicle is in an extreme environment. If the vehicle is in an extreme environment, the power of the target electrical equipment is limited. If the vehicle is not in an extreme environment, the power of the target electrical equipment is not limited, so as to avoid power limiting the target electrical equipment when the rated power of the DC-DC is sufficient.

[0036] In other possible implementations, the transportation vehicle obtains the low-voltage working power of the DC-DC, and controls the target electrical equipment to enter the power-limiting mode when the difference between its low-voltage working power and the rated power is less than a predetermined difference. The predetermined difference is set according to experiments or experience, for example, the predetermined difference is 20W. Furthermore, when the difference between its low-voltage working power and the rated power is less than the predetermined difference for a duration greater than a fourth predetermined duration, the target electrical equipment is controlled to enter the power-limiting mode. The fourth preset duration is set according to experiments or experience, and illustratively, the fourth preset duration is 10 minutes.

[0037] To sum up, the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application obtains the operating parameters of the battery during the driving process of the transportation vehicle, and detects whether the battery is in a discharge state based on the operating parameters of the battery. If the battery is in a discharge state for a long time, the low-voltage electrical equipment is controlled to enter a power limiting mode to reduce the operating power of the low-voltage electrical equipment. In extreme power demand scenarios, the power demand of the entire vehicle is reduced, avoiding the risk of battery depletion due to insufficient rated power of the DC-DC, and will not bring about additional DC-DC cost increases.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 4 , which shows a flow chart of a power control method provided by another embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 In the optional embodiment provided in the embodiment, S303 is replaced by S403 to S405. The method includes the following process.

[0039] S401, obtaining the operating parameters of the battery.

[0040] S402: Determine the working state of the battery based on the working parameters of the battery.

[0041] S403: When the time duration of the battery being in the discharge state is greater than a first preset time duration, obtain a power limit level of the target electrical equipment.

[0042] There is a negative correlation between the power limit level and the limit power of the target electrical equipment, that is, the higher the power limit level of the target electrical equipment, the smaller the limit power, and the lower the power limit level of the target electrical equipment, the larger the limit power.

[0043] Optionally, the VCU determines the power limit level of the target electrical equipment in the following manner: the VCU obtains the average discharge power of the battery based on the working parameters of the battery, and determines the power limit level according to the average discharge power of the battery.

[0044] The average discharge power of the battery can be calculated based on the working voltage and working current of the battery. Optionally, the power limit level is positively correlated with the average discharge power of the battery, that is, the greater the average discharge power of the battery, the higher the power limit level; the smaller the average discharge power of the battery, the lower the power limit level.

[0045] In some embodiments, the VCU determines the power limit level based on the first mapping relationship and the average discharge power of the battery, wherein the first mapping relationship includes the relationship between different intervals to which the average discharge power of the battery belongs and different power limit levels. The following table 1 exemplifies the first mapping relationship.

[0046] Power limit level Average discharge power of the battery Level 1 <![CDATA[0<P1≤100]]> Level 2 <![CDATA[100<P1≤200]]> Level 3 <![CDATA[200<P1≤300]]>

[0047] Table-1

[0048] Based on Table 1, it can be seen that the power limit level is divided into three levels, among which level 1 is the lowest and level 3 is the highest. When the average discharge power of the battery is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 100W, the corresponding power limit level is level 1; when the average discharge power of the battery is greater than 100W and less than or equal to 200W, the corresponding power limit level is level 2; when the average discharge power of the battery is greater than 200W and less than or equal to 300W, the corresponding power limit level is level 3.

[0049] S404, obtaining power limiting measures to be adopted by the target electrical equipment under the power limiting level.

[0050] Optionally, the VCU determines the power limiting measures to be adopted by the target power-consuming device at the power limiting level based on the second mapping relationship, and the second mapping relationship includes the power limiting measures adopted by different power-consuming devices at different power limiting levels.

[0051] Exemplarily, when the power limit level is level 1, the seat ventilation and heating module is limited to gear 1, the duty cycle of the blower is limited to 90%, and the duty cycle of the electronic fan is limited to 90%; when the power limit level is level 2, the seat ventilation and heating module is limited to gear 1, the duty cycle of the blower is limited to 70%, and the duty cycle of the electronic fan is limited to 85%; when the power limit level is level 3, the seat ventilation and heating module is limited to gear 1, the duty cycle of the blower is limited to 50%, and the duty cycle of the electronic fan is limited to 80%.

[0052] S405, controlling the target electrical equipment to operate according to power limiting measures.

[0053] The target power-consuming equipment operates in accordance with the above-mentioned power limiting measures, thereby significantly reducing the low-voltage power consumption of the DC-DC. In extreme power demand scenarios, the power demand of the entire vehicle is reduced, avoiding the risk of battery depletion due to insufficient rated power of the DC-DC, and will not bring about additional DC-DC cost increases.

[0054] In some embodiments, when the target power-consuming device enters the power-limiting mode, if an operation instruction for the target power-consuming device is received, the vehicle sends a reminder message, which is used to remind the target power-consuming device of the power-limiting measures taken. For example, when the user adjusts the gear position of the seat ventilation and heating module, the vehicle sends a reminder message "the seat ventilation and heating module is currently adjusted to the first gear at the maximum."

[0055] In some embodiments, when the target power-consuming device enters the power-limited mode, if an operation instruction for the target power-consuming device is received, the transportation vehicle sends an inquiry message to inquire whether to determine whether to operate the target power-consuming device. If a confirmation indication for the inquiry message is received, the target power-consuming device that has received the operation instruction is controlled to exit the power-limited mode, so that the user can use the target power-consuming device normally. Furthermore, while controlling the target power-consuming device that has received the operation instruction to exit the power-limited mode, if the power-limited level of other target power-consuming devices is not the highest level, the power-limited level of other target power-consuming devices is increased, so as to meet the user's usage needs while reducing the power demand of the entire vehicle, avoiding the risk of battery depletion due to insufficient rated power of the DC-DC, and not causing additional DC-DC cost increases.

[0056] In some embodiments, when the power limit level of the target electrical device is not the highest level, if the battery is still in a discharge state and the duration is greater than a second preset duration, the power limit level of the target electrical device is increased.

[0057] The second preset time length is set according to experiments or experience, for example, the second preset time length is 1 minute.

[0058] In one possible implementation, the target power-consuming device gradually increases its power limit level. For example, the power limit level of the target power-consuming device is level 1. If the target power-consuming device enters the power limit mode and the battery is in a discharge state for more than one minute, the target power-consuming device increases the power limit level to level 2.

[0059] In another possible implementation, the VCU obtains the average discharge power of the battery in a specified period of time, and determines the amount of increase in the power limit level according to the average discharge power of the battery in the specified period of time. The specified period of time refers to the period from the time point when the target power-consuming device enters the power limit mode to the current time point. Optionally, if the average discharge power of the battery in the specified period of time is greater than the preset power, the function limit level of the target power-consuming device is directly increased to the highest level; if the average discharge power of the battery in the specified period of time is less than the preset power, the function limit level of the target power-consuming device is increased step by step.

[0060] To sum up, the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application determines the power limit level of the target electrical equipment based on the average discharge power of the battery in the discharge state, thereby achieving more refined power control and reducing the power demand of the entire vehicle while meeting the usage requirements.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 5 , which shows a flow chart of a power control method provided by an embodiment of the present application, the method includes the following process.

[0062] S501, obtaining operating parameters of the battery.

[0063] S502: Determine the working state of the battery based on the working parameters of the battery.

[0064] S503: When the battery is in a discharging state for a period longer than a first preset period, control the target electrical device to enter a power limiting mode.

[0065] The target power-consuming device is a low-voltage power-consuming device in a transportation vehicle. The limited power of the target power-consuming device in the limited power mode is less than the maximum working power of the target power supply device in the normal mode.

[0066] S504, obtaining the low voltage working power of the DC converter in the transportation vehicle.

[0067] Optionally, the VCU obtains an operating current and an operating voltage on a low-voltage side of the DC-DC, and calculates a low-voltage operating power of the DC-DC according to the operating current and the operating voltage on the low-voltage side.

[0068] S505: When the duration during which the low-voltage operating power of the DC converter is less than the specified power is greater than a third preset duration, control the target electrical device to exit the power limiting mode.

[0069] The designated power can be determined according to the power limit level. Specifically, before the target power-consuming device is controlled to exit the power limit mode, the designated power is also determined based on the power limit level of the target power-consuming device. The designated power is negatively correlated with the power limit level of the target power-consuming device, that is, the higher the power limit level of the target power-consuming device, the lower the designated power, and the lower the power limit level of the target power-consuming device, the higher the designated power.

[0070] In some embodiments, the VCU determines the specified power according to the second mapping relationship and the power limit level of the target power-consuming device, and the second mapping relationship includes mapping relationships between different power limit levels and different specified powers. The following Table-2 exemplifies the second mapping relationship.

[0071] Power limit level Specified power Level 1 Low voltage rated power of DC-DC - 100W Level 2 Low voltage rated power of DC-DC - 200W Level 3 Low voltage rated power of DC-DC - 300W

[0072] Table-2

[0073] Based on Table-2, it can be seen that, assuming that the rated power of the DC-DC low-voltage side is 1200W, when the power limit level of the target power-consuming equipment is level 1, the specified power is 1200-100=1100W; when the power limit level of the target power-consuming equipment is level 2, the specified power is 1200-200=1000W; when the power limit level of the target power-consuming equipment is level 1, the specified power is 1200-300=900W.

[0074] The third preset time length is set according to experiments or experience, for example, 5 minutes.

[0075] When the low-voltage operating power of the DC converter is greater than the specified power, or when the low-voltage operating power of the DC converter is less than the specified power for a duration less than a third preset duration, the target electrical device is controlled to maintain a power limiting mode.

[0076] S506, when it is monitored that the power gear of the transportation vehicle is switched to a designated gear, the target power-consuming device is controlled to exit the power limiting mode.

[0077] Optionally, the designated gear is OFF. When the user triggers the power gear switch, INCM sends a power gear signal to the VCU, and the VCU monitors whether the power gear of the vehicle is switched to the designated gear according to the power gear signal. When the power gear of the vehicle is switched to OFF, it indicates that the user has no need to drive the vehicle, and the target electrical equipment in the vehicle does not need to continue working, so the power limit mode is exited.

[0078] In other possible implementations, the vehicle also obtains the temperature of its own environment, and when the temperature of its own environment is less than the first temperature and greater than the second temperature, controls the target power-consuming device to exit the power-limiting mode. Since the rated power of the DC-DC usually cannot meet the power demand of the entire vehicle in extreme environments, in this embodiment, after first monitoring that the vehicle has exited the extreme environment, the target power-consuming device is controlled to exit the power-limiting mode, so as to avoid power limitation of the target power-consuming device when the rated power of the DC-DC is sufficient.

[0079] To summarize, the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application controls the target electrical equipment to exit the power limiting mode when it is detected that the low-voltage operating power of the DC-DC is less than the specified power, so that the user can use the low-voltage electrical equipment normally.

[0080] Please refer to Figure 6 , which shows a block diagram of a power control device provided by an embodiment of the present application. The power control device includes: a parameter acquisition module 610, a state determination module 620, and a power control module 630.

[0081] The parameter acquisition module 610 is used to acquire the operating parameters of the battery in the transportation vehicle.

[0082] The state determination module 620 is used to determine whether the battery is in a discharging state based on the operating parameters of the battery.

[0083] The power control module 630 is used to control the target power-consuming equipment to enter the limited power mode when the battery is in the discharge state for a period longer than a first preset period. The target power-consuming equipment is a low-voltage power-consuming equipment in a transportation vehicle. The limited power of the target power-consuming equipment in the limited power mode is less than the maximum operating power of the target power supply equipment in the normal mode.

[0084] In some embodiments, the power control module 630 is used to obtain the power limit level of the target power-consuming device; obtain the power limit measures to be adopted by the target power-consuming device at the power limit level; and control the target power-consuming device to operate according to the power limit measures.

[0085] In some embodiments, the power control module 630 is used to obtain the average discharge power of the battery based on the working parameters of the battery; determine the power limit level based on the average discharge power of the battery, wherein the power limit level is positively correlated with the average discharge power of the battery.

[0086] In some embodiments, the power control module 630 is also used to increase the power limit level of the target power device when the target power device is in power limit mode and the power limit level of the target power device is not the highest level, if the battery is still in a discharge state and the duration is greater than a second preset time.

[0087] In some embodiments, the device further includes: a power acquisition module (not shown in the figure). The power acquisition module is used to obtain the low-voltage working power of the DC converter in the transportation vehicle. The power control module 630 is used to control the target power-consuming device to exit the power-limiting mode when the low-voltage working power of the DC converter is less than the specified power for a period longer than a third preset period.

[0088] In some embodiments, the device further includes: a power determination module (not shown in the figure). The power determination module is used to determine the specified power based on the power limit level of the target electrical device, wherein the specified power is negatively correlated with the power limit level of the target electrical device.

[0089] In some embodiments, the power control module 630 is further used to control the target electrical device to exit the power limiting mode when monitoring that the power gear of the transportation vehicle is switched to a specified gear.

[0090] To sum up, the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application obtains the operating parameters of the battery during the driving process of the transportation vehicle, and detects whether the battery is in a discharge state based on the operating parameters of the battery. If the battery is in a discharge state for a long time, the low-voltage electrical equipment is controlled to enter a power limiting mode to reduce the operating power of the low-voltage electrical equipment. In extreme power demand scenarios, the power demand of the entire vehicle is reduced, avoiding the risk of battery depletion due to insufficient rated power of the DC-DC, and will not bring about additional DC-DC cost increases.
