Specific embodiments
[0042] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Usually, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0043] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed present invention, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0044] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters indicate similar items in the following drawings. Therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings.
[0045] In addition, terms such as "first" and "second" are only used for distinguishing descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0046] It should be noted that, without conflict, the features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.
[0047] With the booming development of the new energy vehicle industry, as the core component of new energy vehicles, the performance and optimization of charging technology of power batteries have become the focus of the industry. The functions of the power battery system of new energy vehicles are usually divided into two types: main power batteries and small-capacity auxiliary power batteries. The main power battery is responsible for providing the main energy required for vehicle driving, while the auxiliary power battery is mainly used for vehicle starting, accelerating energy supply, and energy recovery scenarios. However, in actual applications, small-capacity auxiliary power batteries often face the problem of rapid power depletion, especially when the vehicle is parked for a long time, high-power devices are started, or the energy replenishment system cannot charge them.
[0048] When the auxiliary power battery runs out of power, if other energy systems of the vehicle cannot provide charging support for it, it will cause the vehicle to be unable to start or related auxiliary devices to malfunction. To address this problem, the current mainstream solutions in the industry mainly include adding a charging system or directly disassembling the power battery for charging.
[0049] However, both of these solutions have significant drawbacks: The former includes two types: adding an AC charging system or a DC charging system. The AC charging system usually requires adding an on-vehicle charger, an AC charging cable, a software control module, and a charging interface fixing component on the vehicle body or accessories. The DC charging system involves adding a DC charging cable and the corresponding charging interface fixing component on the vehicle body or accessories. Obviously, this increases the vehicle manufacturing cost. The latter requires sending the power battery to a professional repair center for charging. This method is technically feasible and can solve the charging problem of the auxiliary power battery. However, implementing this solution requires professional technology and tools to disassemble and install the power battery. At the same time, the vehicle needs to be transported to the repair point for charging, which is time-consuming and laborious, and may have an adverse impact on the use reliability and lifespan of the vehicle installation point.
[0050] Based on the above situation, the embodiments of the present invention provide an automotive auxiliary battery charging system, method, and vehicle, which can effectively alleviate the above technical problems.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 1, this is an automotive auxiliary battery charging system provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The automotive auxiliary battery charging system 01 includes an auxiliary battery module 10, a high-voltage power distribution module 20, a DC charging cable 30, and a DC charger 40. One end of the DC charging cable 30 is a charging socket 31, and the other end includes a terminal 32, a high-voltage connector 33, and a low-voltage connector 34. The auxiliary battery module 10 includes a DC charging signal connector 11.
[0052] The high-voltage power distribution module 20 is electrically connected to the auxiliary battery module 10 and the high-voltage connector 33 respectively.
[0053] The low-voltage connector 34 is electrically connected to the DC charging signal connector 11. The DC charger 40 is electrically connected to the DC charging cable 30 through the charging socket 31. The terminal 32 is grounded.
[0054] The DC charger 40 can be a mobile charger to improve the charging convenience. Similarly, the DC charging cable 30 can be a charging cable independent of the vehicle. When the auxiliary battery module 10 does not need to be charged, the DC charging cable 30 can be stored in a repair shop or the vehicle trunk. When the auxiliary battery module 10 needs to be charged, the user can take out the DC charging cable 30 and connect the auxiliary battery module 10 to the DC charger 40 for charging.
[0055] When charging the auxiliary battery module 10, the user only needs to connect the charging socket 31 of the DC charging cable 30 to the DC charger 40, ground the terminal 32 of the DC charging cable 30 in the form of connection by nuts or bolts or other forms, connect the high-voltage connector 33 to the high-voltage power distribution module 20, and connect the low-voltage connector 34 to the DC charging signal connector 11. After completing the line connection between the modules, the auxiliary battery module 10 can be directly charged through the DC charger 40.
[0056] Optionally, the high-voltage power distribution module 20 includes a high-voltage interface 21.
[0057] The high-voltage connector 33 is electrically connected to the high-voltage power distribution module 20 through the high-voltage interface 21.
[0058] When the auxiliary battery module 10 is not being charged, the high-voltage interface 21 is electrically connected to the original high-voltage harness to restore the original electrical connection.
[0059] As Figure 2 shown, the high-voltage interface 21 can be an interface connecting the air-conditioning PTC or other high-voltage components to the high-voltage power distribution module 20. When the auxiliary battery module 10 does not need to be charged, the high-voltage interface 21 is normally connected to the air-conditioning PTC or other high-voltage components. When the auxiliary battery module 10 needs to be charged, the user can unplug the air-conditioning PTC or other high-voltage components and connect the high-voltage connector 33 of the DC charging cable 30 to the high-voltage interface 21.
[0060] Optionally, the auxiliary battery module 10 further includes a battery management module 12. The battery management module 12 is electrically connected to the low-voltage connector 34 through a DC charging signal connector 11.
[0061] As Figure 3 shown, the battery management module 12 is electrically connected to the low-voltage connector 34 of the DC charging line 30 through a DC charging signal connector 11. The battery management module 12 may be a BMS (Battery Management System). When the DC charger 40 charges the auxiliary battery module 10, the battery management module 12 needs to first verify and handshake with the DC charger 40. Only after the handshake is successful can the DC charger 40 be allowed to charge the auxiliary battery module 10, thereby ensuring the safety of charging the auxiliary battery module 10.
[0062] Optionally, the auxiliary battery module 10 further includes a first relay 13, a second relay 14, and a third relay 15; the first relay 13 and the second relay 14 are respectively electrically connected to the positive electrodes of the auxiliary battery module 10 and the high-voltage power distribution module 20, and the third relay 15 is respectively electrically connected to the negative electrodes of the auxiliary battery module 10 and the high-voltage power distribution module 20; the coil control circuits of the first relay 13, the second relay 14, and the third relay 15 are electrically connected to the battery management module 12;
[0063] The battery management module 12 is configured to, when the automotive auxiliary battery charging system 01 is charging, after the battery management module 12 successfully shakes hands with the DC charger 40, close the second relay 14 and the third relay 15, and after the voltage before and after the contacts of the second relay 14 and the third relay 15 reaches a preset voltage, close the first relay 13 and open the second relay 14 to complete the connection of the DC charging high-voltage circuit. Please refer to Figure 3 , a first relay 13, a second relay 14, and a third relay 15 are provided in the auxiliary battery module 10. The first relay 13 and the second relay 14 are respectively electrically connected to the positive electrodes of the auxiliary battery management module 12 and the high-voltage power distribution module 20, and the third relay 15 is respectively electrically connected to the negative electrodes of the auxiliary battery management module 12 and the high-voltage power distribution module 20.
[0064] When the auxiliary battery module 10 is charged, the battery management module 12 first shakes hands with the DC charger 40. After the handshake is completed, the battery management module 12 closes the second relay 14 and the third relay 15. After the voltage before and after the contacts of the second relay 14 and the third relay 15 reaches a preset voltage value, the battery management module 12 closes the first relay 13 and opens the second relay 14, thereby completing the connection of the DC charging high-voltage circuit.
[0065] Optionally, the DC charging signal connector 11 is provided with a cap plug 16. The cap plug 16 is adapted to the DC charging signal connector 11 and is used to be installed on the DC charging signal connector 11 when the automotive auxiliary battery charging system 01 is not charging, so as to ensure the sealing of the electrical circuit.
[0066] As Figure 2 shown, when the auxiliary battery module 10 is not charging, the cap plug 16 can be installed on the DC charging signal connector 11, so as to achieve the effects of waterproofing and dustproofing. At the same time, the high-voltage circuit remains in a normal connected state, which not only ensures the sealing performance but also does not require additional DC high-voltage circuit interfaces, thus reducing the cost.
[0067] Optionally, the cross-sectional area of the DC charging cable 30 is between 2.0 mm 2 and 4.0 mm 2 , and the current passing through the DC charging cable 30 is 15 A to 25 A.
[0068] The electrical interface accessed by the DC charging high-voltage circuit is a high-voltage low-current interface, and its wire cross-sectional area is controlled between 2.0 mm 2 and 4.0 mm 2 , and the corresponding current-carrying capacity is 15 A to 25 A. Therefore, the high-voltage circuit cable of the DC charging cable 30 also adopts a connector matching it, and no additional changes to other devices are required.
[0069] Optionally, the power of the DC charger 40 is 3.5 KW or 7 KW.
[0070] Since the cross-sectional area of the DC charging cable 30 is between 2.0 mm 2 and 4.0 mm 2 , and the current passing through the DC charging cable 30 is 15 A to 25 A. Therefore, setting a DC charger 40 with a power of 3.5 KW or 7 KW can meet the charging requirements.
[0071] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present invention provides an automotive auxiliary battery charging method, which is applied to the automotive auxiliary battery charging system 01. The automotive auxiliary battery charging system 01 includes an auxiliary battery module 10, a high-voltage power distribution module 20, a DC charging cable 30, and a DC charger 40. One end of the DC charging cable 30 is a charging socket 31, and the other end includes a terminal 32, a high-voltage connector 33, and a low-voltage connector 34. The auxiliary battery module 10 includes a DC charging signal connector 11, a first relay 13, a second relay 14, a third relay 15, and a battery management module 12. The method includes the following steps as Figure 4 shown:
[0072] Step S110: When the automotive auxiliary battery charging system 01 enters the charging state, the DC charger 40 shakes hands with the battery management module 12 via a message.
[0073] Step S120: After the handshake is completed, the battery management module 12 sends a charging parameter message to the DC charger 40, receives the maximum output capacity message fed back by the DC charger 40, and sends a pre-charging preparation message to the DC charger 40 to perform pre-charging.
[0074] Step S130: During the pre-charging stage, the battery management module 12 closes the second relay 14 and the third relay 15, and after the voltage before and after the contacts of the second relay 14 and the third relay 15 reaches the preset voltage, closes the first relay 13, disconnects the second relay 14, and sends a charging preparation message to the DC charger 40.
[0075] Step S140: The DC charger 40 receives the charging preparation message, charges the auxiliary battery module 10, and disconnects the high-voltage circuit after charging is completed.
[0076] When the auxiliary battery module 10 needs to be charged, the user first connects the DC charger 40 to the auxiliary battery module 10 through the DC charging cable 30, and then connects the DC charger 40 to the 220V AC mains.
[0077] When starting to charge, the DC charger 40 shakes hands with the battery management module 12 via a message. After the handshake is completed, the battery management module 12 sends a charging parameter message to the DC charger 40, receives the maximum output capacity message fed back by the DC charger 40, and sends a pre-charging preparation message to the DC charger 40 to perform pre-charging.
[0078] During the pre-charging stage, the battery management module 12 closes the second relay 14 and the third relay 15, and after the voltage before and after the contacts of the second relay 14 and the third relay 15 reaches the preset voltage, closes the first relay 13, disconnects the second relay 14, and sends a charging preparation message to the DC charger 40.
[0079] The DC charger 40 receives the charging preparation message, starts to charge the auxiliary battery module 10, and disconnects the high-voltage circuit after charging is completed.
[0080] Optionally, the step of the DC charger 40 shaking hands with the battery management module 12 via a message includes:
[0081] The DC charger 40 sends a handshake message to the battery management module 12.
[0082] The battery management module 12 receives the handshake message and sends a handshake success message to the DC charger 40 according to the first preset period.
[0083] After the DC charger 40 receives the handshake success message, it starts the insulation detection, and after the insulation detection is normal, it sends an identification message to the battery management module 12 according to the second preset period.
[0084] After the battery management module 12 receives the identification message, it sends an identification success message to the DC charger 40 according to the third preset period to complete the handshake with the DC charger 40.
[0085] After the DC charging cable 30 and the DC charger 40 are reliably connected, after the DC charger 40 detects the reliable connection, it locks the electronic lock, locks the charging socket 31 and the plug to avoid sudden disconnection, and then closes the internal relay to Figure 3 provide a low-voltage auxiliary power supply through A+ and A- as shown, and then send a handshake message.
[0086] After the vehicle controller receives the +12V voltage signal provided by the A+ power supply line, it will make the vehicle enter the DC charging mode and prohibit the vehicle from driving. After the battery management module 12 is also woken up by the A+ hard wire, it enters the DC charging mode and detects the CC2 circuit to judge whether the charging socket 31 and the plug are reliably connected. If the connection is reliable, the battery management module 12 waits for the handshake message from the charger. After receiving the handshake message from the DC charger 40, it periodically sends a handshake success message.
[0087] After the DC charger 40 receives the handshake success message, it starts the insulation detection internally. After the insulation resistance values are all normal, it periodically sends an identification message.
[0088] After the battery management module 12 receives the identification message sent by the DC charger 40, it also periodically sends an identification success message, indicating that the battery management module 12 and the DC charger 40 have completed the handshake.
[0089] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present invention provides an automobile, which includes the vehicle auxiliary battery charging system 01 of any one of the above.
