Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery insulation detection, and particularly to a high-precision insulation detection circuit system and method. Background Art

[0002] With the development of lithium batteries, lithium batteries are increasingly widely used as power batteries or energy storage batteries, and the voltage platform and charge and discharge current are getting higher and higher. However, if there is a leakage problem in the power battery, it may seriously lead to personal safety problems or major property loss problems. From the perspective of electrical safety, the battery insulation detection function has become one of the core functions of the battery management system. It is necessary to detect the insulation impedance of the positive and negative poles of the battery pack and the load high-voltage bus to the ground (chassis) to ensure that the battery system works more safely and reliably, and provide a basis for the safety management of the battery system. The most commonly used method for existing battery insulation detection is the balanced bridge method. A standard resistor is connected in parallel between the positive and negative high-voltage buses and the vehicle body ground. By switching the switch, the voltage division ratio of the positive and negative buses to the vehicle body ground is changed, and then the insulation resistance of the battery is calculated. To achieve this, multiple high-voltage optocouplers are required to control the corresponding bridge arms, and the circuit is relatively complex. On the other hand, two additional high-voltage side voltage samplings need to be added and sent to the MCU for sampling through isolation amplifiers, resulting in a complex circuit, low reliability, and high cost. For the unbalanced bridge, although it solves the problems of complex circuit and a large number of high-voltage optocouplers, when the insulation resistance value is small, the accuracy deviation is relatively large. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the above technical problems, the present invention provides a high-precision insulation detection circuit system and method.

[0004] The present invention is implemented by the following technical solutions: A high-precision insulation detection circuit system includes a first resistor network R1, a second resistor network R2, and a third resistor network R3, as well as two optocoupler control switches K1 and K2. One end of the first resistor network R1 is connected to the total positive of the battery, and the other end is connected in series with the front end of the optocoupler control switch K1. The end of the optocoupler control switch K1 is connected in series with the second resistor network R2. The other end of the second resistor network R2 is connected in series with the optocoupler control switch K2. The end of the optocoupler control switch K2 is connected in series with the third resistor network R3. The end of the third resistor network R3 is connected to the total negative of the battery.

[0005] Specifically, the node where the end of the optocoupler control switch K1 is connected in series with the second resistor network R2 is grounded.

[0006] Specifically, it further includes differential operational amplifiers U1 and U2, a precision voltage regulator U3, and an analog front end U4. The input end of the operational amplifier U1 is connected to the acquisition point P1, and a resistor R6 is connected in series at the output end. A resistor R7 is connected in series at the output end of the operational amplifier U2. The resistor R6 and the resistor R7 are connected in parallel and connected to the input end of the precision voltage regulator U3.

The insulation equivalent resistor RP is equivalent to the resistance value between the grounding end of the second resistor network R2 and the connection end of the third resistor network R3 to the negative terminal of the battery total.

[0010] Specifically, the first resistor network R1 and the second resistor network R2 are both composed of 4 539K resistors connected in series. The third resistor network R3 is composed of 2 15K resistors connected in parallel.

[0011] A high-precision insulation detection method is implemented based on the described high-precision insulation detection circuit system, including the following steps: Step S1: After the system is powered on, the optocoupler control switches K1 and K2 are both in the off state. At this time, the control switch K2 is closed to form a first acquisition loop. In this state, the switch K1 is open and the switch K2 is closed, which is equivalent to the first resistor network R1 not being connected to the loop. For the insulation positive, there is only the equivalent resistor RP. For the insulation negative loop, it is the sum of RN in parallel with the second resistor network R2 and the third resistor network R3. At this time, a voltage sample V1 is acquired once, and the U+ and U- voltage values are calculated based on the V1 sample voltage and the first acquisition loop. Step S2: The optocoupler control switches K1 and K2 are closed to form a second acquisition loop. In this state, the switch K1 is closed and the switch K2 is closed, which is equivalent to the insulation positive being composed of RP in parallel with the first resistor network R1. For the insulation negative loop, it is the sum of RN in parallel with the second resistor network R2 and the third resistor network R3. At this time, a secondary sample voltage V2 is acquired, and the U+' and U-' voltage values are calculated based on the V2 sample voltage and the second sample loop. Step S3: Combine the voltage values ​​U+ and U- calculated in step S1 and the voltage values ​​U+' and U-' calculated in step S2 to solve the insulation positive equivalent resistance RP and the insulation negative equivalent resistance RN; Step S4: Disconnect K1 and K2 to complete an insulation detection state.

[0012] Specifically, step S1 calculates the voltage values ​​of U+ and U- according to the V1 sampling voltage and the first acquisition circuit. The specific calculation formula is: U-=(V1-0.5V)*((R2+R3) / R3); U+=Ub - U-; According to the calculated U+ and U-, we can get: ; Among them, V1 is the primary sampling voltage of the system; U+ is the positive equivalent voltage of the primary insulation of the system; U- is the negative equivalent voltage of the primary insulation of the system.

[0013] Specifically, the voltage values ​​U+' and U-' are calculated based on the V2 sampling voltage and the second sampling loop, and the specific calculation formula is: U-'=(V2-0.5V)*((R2+R3) / R3); U+'=Ub - U-'; According to the calculated U+' and U-', we can get: ; Among them, V2 is the system secondary sampling voltage; U+' is the system secondary insulation positive equivalent voltage; U-' is the system secondary insulation negative equivalent voltage.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention uses an unbalanced bridge type to realize insulation detection, simplifies the insulation detection steps, is a safer and more reliable circuit, increases the insulation detection accuracy, detects the insulation state in real time, and ensures the safety of equipment and personnel; compared with a full-bridge insulation detection circuit, the bridge arm and its optical coupling switch are reduced, and a simpler solution is used to realize the insulation detection principle, which is more conducive to PCB layout, the circuit is simple and reliable, the manufacturing cost is low, the detection result is accurate, and the implementation is convenient.
