[0063] The following will detail the specific implementation manners of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation manners described herein are only for explaining and understanding the present disclosure, and are not used to limit the present disclosure.

[0064] First, the application scenario of the present disclosure will be introduced. The present disclosure is applied to the scenario of supplying power to the load of a vehicle through a battery pack. In the related art, a single battery pack can directly supply power to the load of the vehicle. Exemplarily, the battery pack can be a power battery, for example, an energy-type power battery or a power-type power battery; the load can be a high-voltage load of the vehicle, such as a power system, a DC-DC converter, an on-board charger (OBC), or a compressor, etc.

[0065] With the development of vehicle technology, people have higher requirements for the driving experience of vehicles. On the one hand, people want the vehicle to have a higher driving range; on the other hand, they want the vehicle to have strong driving performance; more importantly, they want the vehicle to be able to maintain the best performance all-weather. However, the energy-type power battery can only provide a higher cruising range for the vehicle, and the power-type power battery can only bring strong driving performance to the vehicle. It can be seen that supplying power to the load through a single battery pack alone cannot meet people's growing driving needs.

[0066] To solve the above problems, the present disclosure provides a power supply method, a power supply system, an electronic device, a control system, and a vehicle for a vehicle; the power supply system includes a first load, a second load, a first battery pack, a second battery pack, and a bidirectional voltage converter; the first load is connected to the first battery pack; the second load is connected to the second battery pack; the bidirectional voltage converter is respectively connected to the first battery pack and the second battery pack; the first battery pack is used to supply power to the first load; the second battery pack is used to supply power to the second load; the bidirectional voltage converter is used to control the energy transfer between the first battery pack and the second battery pack; through the above technical solution, power supply to the vehicle can be achieved through two battery packs, and energy transfer can also occur between the two battery packs, enabling the vehicle to have strong power output while having sufficient energy, meeting the requirements of users for cruising range and driving ability, and improving the driving experience of users.

[0067] Figure 1 It is a block diagram of a power supply system of a vehicle shown according to an exemplary embodiment. As Figure 1As shown, the system 100 includes a first load 110, a second load 120, a first battery pack 130, a second battery pack 140, and a bidirectional voltage converter 150; the first load 110 is connected to the first battery pack 130; the second load 120 is connected to the second battery pack 140; the bidirectional voltage converter 150 is respectively connected to the first battery pack 130 and the second battery pack 140;

[0068] The first battery pack 130 is used to supply power to the first load 110;

[0069] The second battery pack 140 is used to supply power to the second load 120;

[0070] The bidirectional voltage converter 150 is used to control the energy transfer between the first battery pack 130 and the second battery pack 140.

[0071] Exemplarily, the first battery pack can be an energy-type battery pack; the first load can be other high-voltage loads of the vehicle, such as a voltage converter, an on-board charger, or a compressor, etc.; the second battery pack can be a power-type battery pack; the second load can be the power system of the vehicle.

[0072] Since the power-type battery pack can bring a higher power output, powering the drive assembly with the power-type battery pack can make the vehicle have strong driving performance; since the energy-type battery pack has more energy storage, powering other high-voltage loads with the energy-type battery pack can make the vehicle have a longer driving range. By using the two battery packs to supply power to different loads respectively, the vehicle can simultaneously have strong driving performance and a long driving range, improving the user experience. Moreover, energy transfer can also occur between the two battery packs to ensure the stable driving of the vehicle and improve the working efficiency.

[0073] Through the above technical solution, the vehicle can be powered by two battery packs, and energy transfer can also occur between the two battery packs, enabling the vehicle to have a strong power output while having sufficient energy, meeting the user's requirements for driving range and driving ability, and improving the user's driving experience.

[0074] In some embodiments, the bidirectional voltage converter is configured to: when the first state of charge of the first battery pack is within a first preset range and the second state of charge of the second battery pack is within a second preset range, enable the first battery pack and the second battery pack to transfer energy in a first energy transfer direction; when the first state of charge of the first battery pack is within a third preset range and the second state of charge of the second battery pack is within a fourth preset range, enable the first battery pack and the second battery pack to transfer energy in a second energy transfer direction. In this way, the transfer direction can be determined based on the state of charge of the battery packs, and then energy transfer can be carried out.

[0075] In some other embodiments, the first energy transfer direction is for the first battery pack to transfer energy to the second battery pack; the second energy transfer direction is for the second battery pack to transfer energy to the first battery pack.

[0076] Exemplarily, the bidirectional voltage converter can be controlled to perform step-down operation to transfer the energy of the first battery pack to the second battery pack; or, the bidirectional voltage converter can be controlled to perform step-up operation to transfer the energy of the second battery pack to the first battery pack. In this way, when the power of one battery pack is too low, it can be powered by another battery pack, enabling the two battery packs to work together, improving the endurance of the vehicle, and further enhancing the stability of vehicle operation.

[0077] In some embodiments, the bidirectional voltage converter is configured to: when the first state of charge of the first battery pack is within a fifth preset range and the second state of charge of the second battery pack is within a sixth preset range, the first battery pack and / or the second battery pack reduces energy output.

[0078] In some other embodiments, the first preset range of the first state of charge of the first battery pack is greater than the third preset range of the first state of charge of the first battery pack, and the third preset range of the first state of charge of the first battery pack is greater than the fifth preset range of the first state of charge of the first battery pack; the sixth preset range of the second state of charge of the second battery pack is less than the second preset range and the fourth preset range of the second state of charge of the second battery pack.

[0079] In some embodiments, the first preset range may include one or more of greater than or equal to 20%, greater than or equal to 10% and less than 20%, and greater than or equal to 5% and less than 10%; the third preset range may include one or more of greater than or equal to 5% and less than 10%, greater than or equal to 2% and less than 5%, and less than 2%; the fifth preset range may include less than 2%; the sixth preset range may include less than 10%.

[0080] It should be noted that the above preset range can be set by the user according to the battery pack status parameters, and no limitation is made here.

[0081] The process of energy transfer between the first battery pack and the second battery pack is illustrated by examples below. Among them, the first battery pack can be an energy pack, the second battery pack can be a power pack, the first state of charge is represented by A, and the second state of charge is represented by B, as shown in Table 1 below:

[0082] When the first preset range is A≥20%, the second preset range can include 60%>B≥40% or 40%>B≥10%; at this time, energy can be transferred from the energy pack to the power pack.

[0083] When the first preset range is 20%>A≥10%, the second preset range can include 40%>B≥10% or B<10%; at this time, energy can be transferred from the energy pack to the power pack.

[0084] When the first preset range is 10%>A≥5%, the second preset range can include B<10%; at this time, energy can be transferred from the energy pack to the power pack.

[0085] When the third preset range is 10%>A≥5%, the fourth preset range can include B≥60%; at this time, energy can be transferred from the power pack to the energy pack.

[0086] When the third preset range is 5%>A≥2%, the fourth preset range can include B≥60% or 60%>B≥40%; at this time, energy can be transferred from the power pack to the energy pack.

[0087] When the third preset range is A<2%, the fourth preset range can include one or more of B≥60%, 60%>B≥40%, and 40%>B≥10%; at this time, energy can be transferred from the power pack to the energy pack.

[0088] When the fifth preset range is A<2%, the sixth preset range can include B<10%; at this time, the energy output of the first battery pack and / or the second battery pack is reduced. Since the energy of both battery packs is at a low level in the above cases, there is no need to transfer energy, and the vehicle is controlled to enter a restricted driving state to protect the operation safety of the vehicle.

[0089] It should be noted that in the following cases, there is no need to transfer energy:

[0090] The first preset range is A≥20%, and the second preset range is B≥60%; the first preset range is 20%>A≥10%, and the second preset range is B≥60% or 60%>B≥40%; the first preset range is 10%>A≥5%, and the second preset range is 60%>B≥40% or 40%>B≥10%; the third preset range is 5%>A≥2%, and the fourth preset range is 40%>B≥10% or B<10%. In the above several cases, one of the two battery packs can provide energy for the corresponding load, so there is no need for energy transfer.

[0091] Table 1:

[0092]

[0093] In some embodiments, the bidirectional voltage converter can be configured to determine the second target state of charge range in which the second state of charge is located when determining the first target state of charge range in which the first state of charge is located; determine the direction of energy transfer according to the first target state of charge range and the second target state of charge range. Or when determining that the second state of charge is in the second target state of charge range, determine the first target state of charge range in which the first state of charge is located; determine the transfer direction according to the second target state of charge range and the first target state of charge range. In this way, the direction of energy transfer can be determined based on the state of charge ranges of the two battery packs, so as to be applicable to more application scenarios and improve work efficiency.

[0094] In some other embodiments, the determining the first target state of charge range in which the first state of charge is located may include: determining the first target state of charge range from a plurality of first preset state of charge ranges according to the first state of charge; and the determining the second target state of charge range in which the second state of charge is located may include: determining the second target state of charge range from a plurality of second preset state of charge ranges according to the second state of charge.

[0095] Exemplarily, the first preset state of charge range and the second preset state of charge range can be set by the user according to the battery model and usage conditions, which are not limited herein. In this way, the target state of charge range of the battery pack can be quickly determined through multiple preset state of charge ranges, improving work efficiency.

[0096] In some embodiments, it may also control the vehicle to enter a restricted driving state when determining that the first state of charge is less than or equal to the first preset state of charge threshold and the second state of charge is less than or equal to the second preset state of charge threshold.

[0097] Exemplarily, the first preset state of charge threshold may be in the range of 0% - 15%, such as 1%, 5%, 10% or 15%, etc.; the second preset state of charge threshold may be in the range of 0% - 5%, such as 1%, 2% or 5%, etc.; no limitation is made here.

[0098] It should be noted that, it can also be determined that the electric quantity of the battery pack of the vehicle is sufficient and no energy transmission is required when it is determined that the first state of charge is greater than or equal to the third preset state of charge threshold and the second state of charge is greater than or equal to the fourth preset state of charge threshold.

[0099] Exemplarily, the third preset state of charge threshold may be in the range of 55% - 75%, such as 55%, 60% or 75%, etc.; the fourth preset state of charge threshold may be in the range of 5% - 100%, such as 5%, 10%, 20%, 50% or 100%, etc.; no limitation is made here.

[0100] In some embodiments, the system can also implement the functions of the above vehicle power supply system through an electronic device. Exemplarily, the electronic device can be a controller, and the controller can be an independent device or integrated on other devices of the vehicle; for example, the controller can be a vehicle control unit VCU or a microprocessing unit MCU, etc., and no limitation is made here.

[0101] Figure 2 is according to Figure 1 the exemplary embodiment shows a block diagram of a vehicle power supply system. As Figure 2 shown, the system 100 may further include a first pre-charge circuit 160; the first pre-charge circuit 160 is respectively connected to the first battery pack 130 and the first load 110; the first pre-charge circuit 160 is used to pre-charge the first load 110.

[0102] Exemplarily, the first pre-charge circuit can pre-charge the first load before the energy transfer between the first battery pack and the second battery pack of the vehicle (i.e., after the vehicle enters the power-on state) to protect the first load. The first pre-charge circuit can be a high-voltage pre-charge circuit; the first pre-charge circuit can limit the effect of the charging current of the capacitor at the moment when the power supply is turned on to protect other elements of the circuit from being damaged by the instantaneous short-circuit current of the capacitor.

[0103] In some embodiments, as Figure 2As shown, the system 100 may further include a second pre-charge circuit 170; the second pre-charge circuit 170 is respectively connected to the second battery pack 140 and the second load 120; the second pre-charge circuit 170 is used to pre-charge the second load. Exemplarily, the second pre-charge circuit may be a high-voltage pre-charge circuit. The second pre-charge circuit may pre-charge the second load before the first battery pack and the second battery pack of the vehicle perform energy transfer (i.e., after the vehicle enters the powered-on state) to protect the second load.

[0104] It should be noted that the system 100 may include the first pre-charge circuit 160; or, include the second pre-charge circuit 170; or, include both the first pre-charge circuit 160 and the second pre-charge circuit 170, which is not limited herein.

[0105] In some embodiments, the system 100 may further include a DC charging interface; the DC charging interface may be respectively connected to the first battery pack and the second battery pack; the DC charging interface is used to access a power source. In this way, when the battery pack has a low power level, the vehicle can be charged by connecting a charging pile through the DC charging interface.

[0106] Figure 3 It is a block diagram of another vehicle power supply system shown according to an exemplary embodiment. As Figure 3 shown, the system may include a first load, a second load, a first battery pack, a second battery pack, a bidirectional voltage converter, a first pre-charge circuit, a second pre-charge circuit, a DC charging interface, and a plurality of contactors. The working process of the power supply system is illustrated below by way of example:

[0107] When the vehicle enters the powered-on state, the first pre-charge circuit pre-charges the first load. After the pre-charge is completed, the Ka- and Ka+ contactors are closed, and the first load is powered by the first battery pack. The second pre-charge circuit pre-charges the second load, the Kb- and Kb+ contactors are closed, and the second load is powered by the second battery pack. When it is determined that the vehicle has no faults, the vehicle is controlled to enter the driving state. At this time, according to the first state of charge of the first battery pack and the second state of charge of the second battery pack, the energy transfer between the first battery pack and the second battery pack can be controlled through the bidirectional voltage converter. And, when the power levels of the first battery pack and the second battery pack are low, the vehicle is controlled to enter a restricted driving state, so that it can be charged by connecting a charging pile through the DC charging interface.

[0108] Through the above technical solution, the vehicle can be powered by two battery packs, and energy transfer can also be carried out between the two battery packs, enabling the vehicle to have sufficient energy and strong power output at the same time, meeting the user's requirements for driving range and driving ability, and improving the user's driving experience.

[0109] Figure 4 It is a flowchart of a vehicle control method shown according to an exemplary embodiment. As Figure 4 shown, this method is applied to the above vehicle control system, which includes a first load, a second load, a first battery pack, a second battery pack, and a bidirectional voltage converter; the first load is connected to the first battery pack; the second load is connected to the second battery pack; the bidirectional voltage converter is respectively connected to the first battery pack and the second battery pack; this method may include:

[0110] S401. Control the energy transfer between the first battery pack and the second battery pack through the bidirectional voltage converter according to the first state of charge of the first battery pack and the second state of charge of the second battery pack.

[0111] Wherein, the first battery pack is used to supply power to the first load, and the second battery pack is used to supply power to the second load.

[0112] Through the above technical solution, the vehicle can be powered by two battery packs, and energy transfer can also be carried out between the two battery packs, enabling the vehicle to have sufficient energy and strong power output at the same time, meeting the user's requirements for driving range and driving ability, and improving the user's driving experience.
