TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The new energy vehicle industry, as a key component of new quality productivity, is also a strategic emerging industry that is a focus of national layout. In recent years, it has shown a vigorous development trend. Under the promotion of continuous upgrading and iteration of battery technology, the charging rate of electric vehicles has been greatly improved, and 1C / 2C batteries are gradually being replaced by 4C or more super-fast charging batteries. This change has led to a rapid increase in the number of new energy super-fast charging vehicles, which in turn has put tremendous demand pressure on power capacity expansion. However, under the current background of limited power resources, super-fast charging equipment generally adopts a one-machine multi-charging mode to meet demand.

[0003] The traditional charging pile power distribution method has many drawbacks. It mainly uses single module switching. In the single module switching scheme, a large number of switches are needed to implement the switching operation of different modules, which not only leads to a significant increase in cost, but also reduces system reliability and increases the failure rate due to complex switching logic. In addition, with the rise and development of heavy truck charging scenarios, the market demand for megawatt super-fast charging continues to rise. However, the traditional power distribution method does not fully consider this development trend at the design stage, and has poor scalability. When a charging station needs to be upgraded to meet the demand for megawatt super-fast charging, it often needs to replace a large number of devices, resulting in high upgrade costs and a large amount of resource waste during the upgrade process.

[0018] Optimize resource utilization and reduce waste: The invention realizes the efficient use of power resources by monitoring the power demand of charging guns in real time and dynamically adjusting the allocation of power module group according to the demand priority. During the charging process, the system can adjust the power distribution strategy according to the real-time data of vehicle BMS to ensure that each charging gun can obtain the required power support. This dynamic adjustment mechanism avoids the resource waste problem caused by fixed power distribution in traditional method, and improves the overall operation efficiency of charging station.

This mechanism effectively avoids the system crash problem caused by power module failure, improves the reliability and stability of the system. At the same time, the system also has a perfect priority management mechanism, which can reasonably allocate resources when multiple charging guns demand power at the same time, avoiding the system conflict caused by resource contention.

[0036] Furthermore, step S3 also includes: after determining the required number of power module groups, formulating a switching scheme according to preset switching rules, which include: S321. For the current charging gun with a determined number of power module groups, prioritize the use of the corresponding power module group configured in this group.

[0039] In addition, the method further includes: Before each power module group is put into, it is judged whether the power module group to be put into has a fault; If not, put into; If yes, an alarm is issued.

[0040] The purpose of the present application is to overcome the shortcomings of poor flexibility or high cost of contactor matrix and complex switching logic in the existing charging stack switching technology, provide a super-charging multi-gun charging topology and control algorithm, which can enable a single gun to distribute multiple power modules through a double DC bus and a ring topology structure, and when a large station needs multiple charging hosts, the topology and control method can realize parallel operation of multiple charging hosts, so that a single gun can call power modules across the charging host to realize high-power charging function.

[0041] To achieve the above-mentioned goal, the present application adopts the following technical solutions: The double-bus star-ring topology in the present application has two modes of single-machine high-power output and multi-machine parallel operation. In the single-machine mode, the charger is composed of a double DC bus and a ring topology. One of the two DC buses connects all odd-numbered charging guns to a bus, and the other DC bus connects all even-numbered charging guns to a bus. All charging modules on the same bus can be arbitrarily switched to other charging gun ports through the bus. The outermost end is a ring topology, and the power module group is composed of multiple charging modules. The number of power module groups corresponds to the number of charging guns. All power module groups are connected through a contactor matrix. Each charging module group is connected to a corresponding charging terminal. Each charging terminal can flexibly call the charging modules of the whole machine through the double DC bus and the ring topology structure of the outer ring to realize efficient and high-power charging. In the multi-machine parallel operation mode, the DC buses of two or more charging hosts are connected in a ring. The topology is shown in the drawing. The present application takes two groups of one-machine-twelve-charging devices and three groups of one-machine-twelve-charging devices as examples, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The actual application can be composed of multiple groups of different chargers, and the charger is not limited to one-machine-eight-charging, but can be expanded to one-machine-multiple-charging.

[0042] The topology structure in the present example takes double-host parallel connection as a typical case, as shown in Figure 2 The numbers in the box represent power module group numbers, the numbers with # represent charging gun numbers, and k with numbers represent contactor numbers. Each contactor contains one positive contactor and one negative contactor. The contactor with the number k9n is a DC bus parallel connection contactor, and the contactors with the numbers kn-k3n are contactors in the power routing.

[0043] The module groups of each gun mouth (i.e. charging gun) form a ring topology through contactors; the system has two busbars, which are connected with odd module groups (1, 3, 5, 7...) and even module groups (2, 4, 6, 8...) respectively, forming a star topology; multiple backend machines can be connected through the two busbars; any gun has three input circuits, which are the left side of the ring, the right side of the ring and the busbar connected, and the power distribution process mainly includes obtaining the demand of the vehicle BMS (battery management system), calculating the demand and priority of all charging ports, calculating the switching scheme according to the power capacity of the charging machine, controlling the contactor matrix to switch the power unit, and closing the charging terminal DC contactor to start charging. After charging is started, the order of occupying power module groups is the power module group, the idle adjacent power module group, the other idle module groups on the idle busbar and other idle module groups.

[0044] The charging pile product is composed of a charging machine and a charging terminal, the charging terminal is composed of human-computer interaction and a charging gun assembly, and is used for connecting an electric vehicle and charging the electric vehicle. The charging machine is composed of a power AC busbar, a charging module and a power route (composed of a contactor matrix, which distributes the charging module groups to the contactor matrix of each charging terminal according to the control strategy), and the charging host adjusts the power module through the power route according to the power demand of the charging terminal, and provides energy to the charging terminal.

[0045] The double-busbar star-ring topology in the application has single-machine high-power output and multi-machine parallel operation modes. In the single-machine mode, the charging machine is composed of double DC busbars and a ring topology. One of the two DC busbars connects all odd-numbered charging guns to a busbar, and the other DC busbar connects all even-numbered charging guns to a busbar. All charging modules on the same busbar can be arbitrarily switched to other charging gun mouths through the busbar. The outermost end is a ring topology, the power module group is composed of multiple charging modules, the number of power module groups corresponds to the number of charging guns, all power module groups are connected through a contactor matrix, each charging module group is connected with a corresponding charging terminal, and each charging terminal can flexibly call the charging modules of the whole machine through the double DC busbar and the ring topology structure of the outer ring to realize efficient and high-power charging. In the multi-machine parallel operation mode, the double DC busbars of two or more charging hosts are connected in a ring shape. In this example, a 12-machine topology is taken as an example, and in actual application scenarios, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 and other configuration modes can be configured according to requirements.

[0046] Double DC busbar star-ring system control method The power distribution process mainly includes obtaining the demand of the vehicle BMS (battery management system), calculating the demand and priority of all charging ports, calculating the switching scheme according to the power capacity of the charging machine, controlling the contactor matrix to switch the power unit, and closing the charging terminal DC contactor to start charging.

[0047] After charging, the order of occupying power module groups is: the current group, idle adjacent power module groups, other idle module groups on the bus, and other idle module groups. Taking any gun as an example, the default is to use the current module group, i.e., module group 1. When the demand increases, the bus tie is closed, and the left module group 12 is put into use. When the demand continues to increase, the bus tie is closed, and the right module group 2 is put into use. When the demand continues to increase, the bus is occupied, and the idle module groups (3, 5, 7, 9, and 11) on the bus are put into use. When the demand continues to increase, the other idle module groups (4, 6, 8, and 10) are put into use.

[0048] Suppose that during charging, gun 1 occupies all idle modules at the back end (host). When the demand decreases, if a high-priority gun performs a preemption action, it first releases other module groups, then releases bus module groups, then releases adjacent module groups, and finally releases the current module group. The specific algorithm execution steps are as follows: Step 1: Check whether there is a charging gun. If not, exit the current round of checks. If so, continue with the following steps.

[0049] Step 2: For the current charging gun, sort fast-charging guns and super-charging guns according to the order of successful start charging.

[0050] Step 3: Sort each group according to the frequency of module use from low to high.

[0051] Step 4: According to the start order table, iterate through each charging gun. Based on the best output required module number N under the current charging voltage, compare it with the current module number N1. If N is equal to N1, no processing is required.

[0052] Step 5: If N is less than N1, no processing is required.

[0053] Step 6: If N is greater than N1, execute the following loop steps.

[0054] Step 7: Determine whether the current gun's N is greater than N1. If not, no processing is required, and continue searching for other guns. If so, check whether the adjacent module is idle. If it is idle, mark the adjacent module's corresponding gun as the current gun, recalculate N1, and trigger module input (adjacent module, current gun). If the module is not idle, determine whether the adjacent module's corresponding gun is not the current gun and not the adjacent gun, whether the power is excessive and not in the cut-out state, or whether the current gun has a higher priority. If so, trigger module cut-out (adjacent module, corresponding gun), continue searching for other guns. Otherwise, go to Step 8.

[0055] Step 8: If the bus is not idle, determine whether the priority of the current gun port holding the bus is higher than the current gun port. If yes, continue to search for other gun ports. If no, determine the current bus state. If the bus is in use, perform a bus preemption action. First, mark the bus state as adjusting, trigger the launch action of all bus modules and associated modules of the current bus holder (all bus modules and associated modules held by the bus holder, the bus holding gun port), and continue to search for other gun ports. If the bus is in adjusting, check whether the bus holding gun port is still occupied by bus modules and associated modules. If not, perform a bus disconnection action and mark the bus state as idle. If still occupied, continue to search for other gun ports. If the current bus occupier is the current gun port, check whether there is an idle module group. Perform a module launch action (idle module group, current gun port) to mark the idle module group as the current gun port, recalculate N1, and jump to step 7. If the bus is idle, mark the bus state as in use, the bus holder as the current gun port, trigger the module launch action (bus modules and associated modules, current gun port) to mark the corresponding module as the current gun port, recalculate N1, and jump to step 7.

[0056] Step 9: If the idle bus module in the adjacent group or on the bus is occupied, but still cannot meet the demand, check whether the priority of other modules is lower than the current gun port. If the priority is low, perform a module launch action (other module group, current gun port) or a preemption action.

[0057] Step 10: In all the above launch processes, before launching the module group, it is necessary to determine whether the module group meets the launch conditions. The judgment conditions are as follows: the corresponding gun port of the module group has no fault; the corresponding gun port of the module group is not inserted with a gun, or is inserted with a gun but the stage is charging completion.

[0058] For example, using Figure 2Charging gun #1 is in operation. If the optimal output of charging gun #1 under the current charging voltage requires N modules to be activated, compare N with the current number of modules N1 held by charging gun #1. If N is consistently greater than N1, check if the adjacent power module groups #2 and #12 are idle. If power module group #2 is idle, mark charging gun #2 corresponding to power module group #2 as the current port, recalculate N1, and trigger the activation of adjacent idle power module groups. If neither power module group #2 nor power module group #12 is idle, determine if the charging gun occupying the adjacent power module group (taking power module group #2 as an example) is the charging gun configured for the adjacent power module group. The system considers factors such as whether the charging gun is configured for an adjacent power module group, whether the adjacent power module group has excess power, whether the adjacent power module group is marked as being switched out, and whether the current charging gun's demand priority is higher than the demand priority of the charging gun occupying the adjacent power module group. If the charging gun occupying power module group 2 is neither charging gun #2 nor charging gun #3, and power module group 2 has excess power, and power module group 2 is not marked as being switched out, and the demand priority of charging gun #1 is higher than the demand priority of the charging gun occupying power module group 2, then the charging gun occupying power module group 2 will be switched out, and power module group 2 will be put into operation through ring topology contactor k1.

[0059] If the adjacent power module groups 2 and 12 are not idle and do not meet the above switching conditions, then iterate through other idle power module groups on the same DC bus as power module group 1 to see if they meet the switching conditions, that is, determine whether odd-numbered power module groups such as power module group 3 meet the switching conditions: Determine the DC bus where power module group 1 is located ( Figure 2 Is the yellow busbar in the image (in the image) in an idle state? If the DC bus is idle, mark it as in use to avoid charging conflicts; If the DC bus where power module group 1 is located is not idle, then determine whether the power module group occupying the yellow DC bus is power module group 1. If so, then other idle power module groups on the same DC bus will be put into operation; If not, determine whether the demand priority of power module group No. 1 is higher than the demand priority of power module group occupying DC bus. If yes, the bus contactors corresponding to the DC bus power module group and the bus contactors corresponding to the power module group associated with the power module group are disconnected, and the DC bus is cut out; all power module groups are traversed, and other idle power module groups on the same DC bus are put into operation; that is, if the power module group currently occupying the yellow bus is the No. 3 power module group, and the demand priority of the No. 3 power module group is lower than that of the No. 1 power module group, the bus contactor k23 corresponding to the No. 3 power module group is disconnected, and the bus contactors k25 and k27 corresponding to the No. 5 power module group and the No. 7 power module group associated with the No. 3 power module group are disconnected (that is, before this, the No. 5 power module group and the No. 7 power module group are put into operation to supply power charging for the charging gun corresponding to the No. 3 power module group).

[0060] Similarly, it can be judged whether the power module group on another host satisfies the input condition, and if yes, the power module group satisfying the input condition is put into operation through the parallel connection contactor and the corresponding ring topology contactor or bus contactor, and the charging power is insufficient.
