[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0022] 1. In the present invention, by setting a data acquisition module, a data analysis module, a control power supply, a protection capacitor, and a balancing charging module, when the input power supply voltage is connected, the data analysis module will monitor the input voltage, current, and temperature data in real time. During this process, the current will first pass through the rectifier filter circuit in the data acquisition module, thereby converting the alternating current into direct current and reducing the ripple in the output voltage.

The appropriate number of capacitors can share the large current. After sharing the current, the heat generation and loss of a single capacitor can be reduced, the service life of the capacitor can be guaranteed, and the circuit reliability can be improved. At the same time, the balancing charging module will control the connected capacitors and monitor the charging status of the capacitors connected in the protection capacitor in real time, and equalize the voltages of the individual capacitors in the protection capacitor to ensure that the voltage of each single capacitor remains the same, avoiding overvoltage or undervoltage of some single capacitors, which may lead to accelerated aging or even damage, thereby improving the performance and service life of the overall circuit. Finally, the current will be evenly distributed through the distribution of the balancing charging module and enter the battery pack for charging, thereby ensuring that the charging amounts of multiple storage batteries in the battery pack are the same, avoiding overcharging and undercharging, and ensuring the normal service life of the battery pack.

[0023] 2. In the present invention, by providing a charging state detection module, a charging state protection unit, and a BSM unit, during the charging process of the battery pack, the charging state detection module can measure the voltage, current, and temperature state parameters of each storage battery in the battery pack, calculate the remaining power of each storage battery in real time, and thus accurately determine the state information of each battery, avoiding usage problems caused by insufficient power or overcharging, thereby optimizing the use and management of the battery pack.

For example, when the charging state of the battery pack approaches or reaches the upper limit, the charging state protection unit will cut off the charging circuit or reduce the charging current to avoid overcharging the battery, thereby effectively preventing the internal chemical reaction of the battery pack from getting out of control and causing dangers such as heating, swelling, or even explosion. If the charging state of the battery pack approaches or reaches the lower limit, the charging state protection unit will cut off the discharge circuit to avoid over-discharging the storage batteries in the battery pack, thereby preventing the capacity of the storage batteries in the battery pack from decreasing due to over-discharge and avoiding damage to the battery pack. If the temperature is too high or too low, the charging state protection unit will reduce the charge and discharge current or cut off the circuit to prevent the battery from being damaged due to overheating or overcooling. When there is a short circuit, the charging state protection unit can quickly cut off the circuit to prevent adverse conditions such as overcharging, over-discharging, overheating, and short circuit. Through the charging state protection unit, the normal service life of the battery pack can be guaranteed, and when each storage battery in the battery pack is fully charged, the charging state protection unit can disconnect the circuit to complete the charging task of the battery pack.

The equalizing charging module continuously detects the voltage and current conditions of each capacitor in the protection capacitor;

[0031] The battery pack is composed of multiple storage batteries. The protection capacitor is unidirectionally connected to the battery pack, and the large current charging unit is arranged bidirectionally with the battery pack;

[0032] The equalizing charging module is used to ensure that the voltage and capacity of each single cell in the battery pack and the protection capacitor are consistent;

[0033] The charging state detection module is used to monitor the charging state of the battery pack, and transmit the voltage, current and temperature state parameters of each storage battery in the battery pack to the charging state protection unit in real time;

[0034] Inside the charging state protection unit, there is a BMS unit. The BMS unit includes a voltage, current and temperature analysis module and an overvoltage, undervoltage, overtemperature and short circuit protection module;

[0035] The voltage, current and temperature analysis module is mainly used to continuously monitor and analyze the voltage, current and temperature of a single storage battery in the battery pack, identify the voltage and current differences between single storage batteries, and provide data support for the equalizing charging module. The voltage, current and temperature analysis module can transmit the monitored data to the overvoltage, undervoltage, overtemperature and short circuit protection module;

[0036] The overvoltage, undervoltage, overtemperature and short circuit protection module is mainly used to protect a single storage battery in the battery pack and cut off the power supply to the abnormal storage battery;

[0037] The charging state protection unit is used to protect the battery pack and the protection capacitor from damage during the charging process and perform open - circuit control on the connected circuit;

[0040] The filter circuit is used to select signals of a specific frequency and transmit the signals to the detection and analysis chip for analysis and processing;

[0041] The detection and analysis chip is used to determine the magnitudes of the input current and voltage. The data analysis module can analyze historical data and real - time data through the detection and analysis chip, identify potential faults, and can determine the connection groups of capacitors and resistors in the protection capacitor by controlling the opening and closing of the control unit;

[0042] The charging control module and the discharging control module are respectively used to control the charging and discharging processes of the protection capacitor;

[0043] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:

[0044] When the power input voltage is connected, the data analysis module will monitor the input voltage, current, and temperature data in real time, identify potential faults or abnormalities such as over - voltage, over - current, and over - heat, which helps to prevent equipment damage and ensure a normal service life. In this process, the current will first pass through the rectifier - filter circuit in the data acquisition module, thereby converting alternating current into direct current and reducing the ripple in the output voltage. Then, the rectified current will pass through the amplifier circuit and the filter circuit in sequence, and finally the filter circuit will transmit the current signal to the detection and analysis chip in the data analysis module, and the detection and analysis chip will analyze and determine the input current signal;

[0045] The detection and analysis chip judges the magnitude and specific data of the current. After determining the specific magnitude of the current, the detection and analysis chip can decide the closing quantity of the control unit according to the actual magnitude of the current, thereby determining the number of connected capacitor groups in the protection capacitor during this charging process. By selecting an appropriate number of capacitors according to the magnitude of the current, the appropriate number of capacitors can share the large current. After sharing the large current, the heating and loss of a single capacitor in the protection capacitor can be reduced, the service life of the capacitor can be ensured, and the circuit reliability can be improved. At the same time, the equalizing charging module will control the connected capacitors;

[0046] And it monitors in real time the charging status of the capacitors connected in the protection capacitor, equalizes the voltages of the capacitors in the protection capacitor to ensure that the voltages of each single capacitor are consistent, avoiding overvoltage or undervoltage of some single capacitors, which may lead to accelerated aging or even damage, thereby improving the performance and lifespan of the overall circuit. Finally, the discharge current is controlled by the equalizing charging module to uniformly enter each storage battery in the battery pack for charging. Through the equalizing charging module, the battery with a higher voltage can be discharged or the battery with a lower voltage can be charged to ensure that the voltages, capacities, and states of the storage batteries in the battery pack are consistent, thereby improving the overall performance, safety, and lifespan of the battery pack;

[0047] During the charging process of the battery pack, the charging status detection module can calculate the remaining power of each storage battery in real time by measuring the voltage, current, and temperature status parameters of each storage battery in the battery pack, so as to accurately determine the status information of each battery, avoiding problems in use caused by insufficient power or overcharging, thereby optimizing the use and management of the battery pack. The voltage, current, and temperature status parameters monitored by the charging status detection module can be transmitted to the charging status protection unit, analyzed and processed by the voltage, current, and temperature analysis modules in the BSM unit, and the processed data is transmitted to the overvoltage, undervoltage, over-temperature, and short-circuit protection modules;

[0048] For example, when the charging status of the battery pack approaches or reaches the upper limit, the charging status protection unit will cut off the charging circuit or reduce the charging current to avoid overcharging the battery, thereby effectively preventing the internal chemical reaction of the battery pack from getting out of control, resulting in risks such as heating, swelling, or even explosion. If the charging status of the battery pack approaches or reaches the lower limit, the charging status protection unit will cut off the discharge circuit to avoid over-discharging the storage batteries in the battery pack, thereby avoiding a decrease in the capacity of the storage batteries in the battery pack caused by over-discharging and preventing damage to the battery pack. If the temperature is too high or too low, the charging status protection unit will reduce the charge and discharge current or cut off the circuit;

[0049] Thereby preventing the battery from being damaged due to overheating or overcooling. In case of a short circuit, the charging status protection unit can quickly cut off the circuit, thereby preventing overcharging, over-discharging, overheating, and short circuits. Through the charging status protection unit, the normal service life of the battery pack can be guaranteed. When the charging of each storage battery in the battery pack is completed, the charging status protection unit can disconnect the circuit to complete the charging task of the battery pack.
