Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and more particularly to a vehicle power distribution system, vehicle, power distribution method, equipment and medium. Background Technology

[0002] Powered trailers are widely used in long-distance logistics transportation. During use, it is necessary to distribute power to both the tractor and the trailer.

[0003] Existing solutions typically equip the tractor and trailer with separate batteries, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the tractor battery powers the vehicle's domain controller, while the trailer battery powers the trailer's various controllers. However, in practical applications, this independent power supply scheme has several shortcomings: First, it adds extra weight and cost to the vehicle; second, the trailer may experience battery depletion. Tractors typically have automatic recharging capabilities, but trailers generally lack an effective recharging mechanism. In scenarios requiring long-term parking or frequent power cycling, such as waiting for loading / unloading for extended periods or frequently shutting down after short-term operations, the battery is prone to deep depletion due to static current consumption, affecting vehicle restart and system operation; furthermore, because the tractor and trailer power supply systems are independent and lack coordination, the driver cannot monitor the trailer's operation or charging status in real time when either the tractor or trailer is charging independently, thus increasing system complexity and potential failure risks. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Based on this, the present invention provides a vehicle power distribution system, vehicle, power distribution method, equipment and medium, which provides unified power supply to the tractor and trailer through the tractor's battery, which can effectively reduce vehicle weight and cost, reduce trailer power loss, and monitor trailer status in real time, thereby improving system safety and user experience.

[0005] Firstly, a vehicle power distribution system is provided, comprising:

[0006] Vehicle domain controller;

[0007] Trailer battery power distribution unit, which is connected to the vehicle domain controller;

[0008] The trailer power converter and trailer-related controller are respectively connected to the trailer-related controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit. The trailer power converter is used to convert the high voltage of the power battery configured in the trailer into the working voltage required by the trailer-related controller after being awakened by the trailer battery power distribution unit, and to supply power to the trailer-related controller.

[0009] The tractor battery is connected to both the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery distribution unit to supply power to them.

[0010] Furthermore, among which:

[0011] After the tractor starts, the tractor battery supplies power to the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery distribution unit, and sends a power-on command to the trailer battery distribution unit.

[0012] The trailer battery power distribution unit wakes up the trailer power converter according to the power-on command.

[0013] After the trailer power converter is activated, it converts the high-voltage electricity from the power battery configured in the trailer into the operating voltage required by the trailer-related controller and supplies power to the trailer-related controller.

[0014] Furthermore, when the tractor unit is shut down, the vehicle domain controller sends a power-off or hibernation command to the trailer battery power distribution unit;

[0015] The trailer battery power distribution unit controls the trailer-related controllers and trailer power converters on the trailer to power down based on preset power-down logic;

[0016] When the trailer-related controller and the trailer power converter are powered off, the trailer battery power distribution unit enters a low-power sleep mode.

[0017] Furthermore, when the trailer battery power distribution unit enters a low-power sleep mode, it maintains power supply to preserve communication monitoring and wake-up capabilities.

[0018] Furthermore, when the vehicle is in a power-down sleep state, if the tractor is in a charging state and the trailer is in a non-charging state, the vehicle domain controller is woken up, and the trailer battery power distribution unit enters a low-power sleep mode.

[0019] Furthermore, when the vehicle is in a power-down sleep state, if both the trailer and the tractor are charging, or if the tractor is not charging while the trailer is charging, the trailer battery distribution unit wakes up the vehicle domain controller and the tractor-related controllers to obtain the trailer's charging status in real time.

[0022] After the tractor starts, the tractor battery supplies power to the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery distribution unit, and sends a power-on command to the trailer battery distribution unit.

[0023] The trailer battery power distribution unit wakes up the trailer power converter according to the power-on command.

[0024] After the trailer power converter is activated, it converts the high-voltage electricity of the power battery configured in the trailer into the working voltage required by the trailer-related controller and supplies power to the trailer-related controller.

[0025] When the tractor is shut down, the vehicle domain controller sends a power-off or hibernation command to the trailer battery power distribution unit;

[0026] The trailer battery power distribution unit controls the trailer-related controllers and trailer power converters on the trailer to power down based on preset power-down logic;

[0027] After the trailer-related controller and the trailer power converter are powered off, the trailer battery power distribution unit enters a low-power sleep mode.

[0028] When the vehicle is in a power-down sleep state, if the tractor is in a charging state and the trailer is in a non-charging state, the vehicle domain controller is woken up and the trailer battery power distribution unit is in a low-power sleep mode.

[0029] When the vehicle is in a power-down sleep state, if both the trailer and the tractor are charging, or if the tractor is not charging while the trailer is charging, the trailer battery distribution unit wakes up the vehicle domain controller and the tractor-related controllers to obtain the real-time charging status of the trailer.

[0030] Fourthly, a computer device is provided, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein when the processor executes the program, it implements a power distribution method for a vehicle's power distribution system according to the second aspect described above.

[0031] Fifthly, a computer-readable storage medium is provided, including a memory and a computer program stored on the memory and executable on a processor, which, when executed by the processor, implements a power distribution method for a vehicle's power distribution system according to the second aspect described above.

[0032] The vehicle power distribution system proposed in this application comprises a vehicle domain controller, a trailer battery power distribution unit, a trailer power converter, a trailer-related controller, and a tractor battery. The trailer battery power distribution unit is connected to the vehicle domain controller. The trailer power converter is connected to both the trailer-related controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit, and after being activated by the trailer battery power distribution unit, it converts the high-voltage electricity from the trailer's power battery into the operating voltage required by the trailer-related controller, thus powering the trailer-related controller. The tractor battery is connected to both the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit, providing power to both. Therefore, by using the tractor battery to provide unified power to both the tractor and trailer, vehicle weight and cost can be effectively reduced, trailer battery depletion can be minimized, and trailer status can be monitored in real time, thereby improving system safety and user experience.

[0040] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the application. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the application are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0041] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0042] The following describes in detail, with reference to the accompanying drawings, the vehicle's power distribution system, vehicle, power distribution method, equipment, and medium according to embodiments of this application.

[0043] Before describing the power distribution system of a vehicle according to embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle itself is first described. In embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle generally refers to a large vehicle including a tractor and a trailer. The trailer is a powered trailer, that is, a trailer including a power battery, a drive motor, a braking system, and an energy recovery device. The trailer and the tractor work together to share the driving load and recover braking energy, thereby increasing the overall vehicle torque and reducing the power consumption of the tractor, effectively extending the overall driving range.

[0044] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a vehicle's power distribution system according to one embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, a vehicle power distribution system according to one embodiment of this application includes: a vehicle domain controller 110, a trailer battery power distribution unit 120, a trailer power converter 130, a trailer-related controller 140, and a tractor battery 150, wherein:

[0045] The vehicle domain controller 110 is used to manage and coordinate the various controllers in the vehicle.

[0046] Trailer battery power distribution unit 120, which is connected to the vehicle domain controller.

[0047] The trailer power converter 130 and the trailer-related controller 140 are respectively connected to the trailer-related controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit. The trailer power converter is used to convert the high voltage of the power battery configured in the trailer into the working voltage required by the trailer-related controller after being awakened by the trailer battery power distribution unit, and to supply power to the trailer-related controller.

[0048] The tractor battery 150 is connected to the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery distribution unit to supply power to the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery distribution unit.

[0049] Existing trailer power distribution solutions, such as Figure 3 As shown, the tractor and trailer are each equipped with independent batteries. The tractor's battery powers the vehicle domain controller, while the trailer's battery powers the various controllers within the trailer. The optimized vehicle power distribution scheme proposed in this application is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the independent battery on the trailer has been eliminated, and the trailer battery distribution unit is connected to the tractor battery, and the trailer power converter and related trailer controllers are also connected.

[0050] In one embodiment of this application, after the tractor unit starts, the tractor unit's battery supplies power to the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery distribution unit, and sends a power-on command to the trailer battery distribution unit; the trailer battery distribution unit wakes up the trailer power converter according to the power-on command; after the trailer power converter is woken up, it converts the high-voltage electricity of the power battery configured in the trailer into the working voltage required by the trailer-related controllers, and supplies power to the trailer-related controllers.

[0051] In the above process, combined with Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle domain controller sends commands to the trailer battery power distribution unit via the CAN bus; the trailer battery power distribution unit wakes up the trailer power converter via a hard-wired signal; after the trailer-related controllers are powered on, they communicate with the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit via the CAN bus to complete system initialization.

[0052] In one embodiment of this application, when the tractor is turned off, the vehicle domain controller sends a power-down or sleep command to the trailer battery power distribution unit; the trailer battery power distribution unit controls the trailer-related controllers and the trailer power converter on the trailer to power down based on preset power-down logic; after the trailer-related controllers and the trailer power converter are powered down, the trailer battery power distribution unit enters a low-power sleep mode.

[0053] In one embodiment of this application, when the trailer battery power distribution unit enters a low-power sleep mode, it maintains power supply to preserve communication monitoring and wake-up capabilities.

[0054] During this process, the trailer battery power distribution unit is powered by the tractor's battery.

[0055] In one embodiment of this application, when the vehicle is in a power-down sleep state, if the tractor is in a charging state and the trailer is in a non-charging state, the vehicle domain controller is woken up and the trailer battery power distribution unit is in a low-power sleep mode.

[0056] In one embodiment of this application, when the vehicle is in a power-down sleep state, if both the trailer and the tractor are charging, or if the tractor is not charging while the trailer is charging, the trailer battery distribution unit wakes up the vehicle domain controller and the tractor-related controller to obtain the charging status of the trailer in real time.

[0057] Once the vehicle domain controller is activated, the trailer's charging status, such as charging progress and status, can be viewed intuitively through the instrument panel or vehicle networking system. This allows the driver to have real-time and intuitive control over the trailer's condition.

[0058] Meanwhile, during the wake-up process, the battery power consumed by the tractor due to the wake-up process can be replenished in time by the tractor's own power replenishment system, thereby avoiding a power outage.

[0059] The vehicle power distribution system according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a vehicle domain controller, a trailer battery power distribution unit, a trailer power converter, a trailer-related controller, and a tractor battery. The trailer battery power distribution unit is connected to the vehicle domain controller. The trailer power converter is connected to both the trailer-related controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit, and is used to convert the high-voltage electricity from the trailer's power battery into the operating voltage required by the trailer-related controller after being awakened by the trailer battery power distribution unit, and to power the trailer-related controller. The tractor battery is connected to both the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit to power both. Therefore, by providing unified power to both the tractor and trailer through the tractor battery, vehicle weight and cost can be effectively reduced, trailer battery depletion can be minimized, and trailer status can be monitored in real time, thereby improving system safety and user experience.

[0063] S503: After the trailer power converter is woken up, it converts the high voltage of the power battery configured in the trailer into the working voltage required by the trailer-related controller and supplies power to the trailer-related controller.

[0064] S504: When the tractor unit is shut down, the vehicle domain controller sends a power-off or hibernation command to the trailer battery power distribution unit;

[0065] S505: The trailer battery power distribution unit controls the trailer-related controllers and the trailer power converter on the trailer to power down based on a preset power-down logic;

[0066] S506: After the trailer-related controller and the trailer power converter are powered off, the trailer battery power distribution unit enters a low-power sleep mode;

[0069] The power distribution method of the vehicle's power distribution system according to an embodiment of this application comprises a vehicle domain controller, a trailer battery power distribution unit, a trailer power converter, a trailer-related controller, and a tractor battery. The trailer battery power distribution unit is connected to the vehicle domain controller. The trailer power converter is connected to both the trailer-related controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit, and is used to convert the high-voltage electricity from the trailer's power battery into the operating voltage required by the trailer-related controller after being awakened by the trailer battery power distribution unit, and to supply power to the trailer-related controller. The tractor battery is connected to both the vehicle domain controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit to supply power to both. Therefore, by using the tractor battery to provide unified power to both the tractor and the trailer, vehicle weight and cost can be effectively reduced, trailer battery drain can be minimized, and trailer status can be monitored in real time, thereby improving system safety and user experience.

[0070] Specific limitations regarding the power distribution method of a vehicle's electrical distribution system can be found in the limitations of the vehicle's electrical distribution system described above, and will not be repeated here.

These modules can be embedded in or independent of the processor in a computer device in hardware form, or stored in the memory of a computer device in software form, so that the processor can call and execute the operations corresponding to each module.

[0071] Furthermore, embodiments of this application provide a vehicle, including a power distribution system according to any of the above embodiments. The vehicle comprises a vehicle domain controller, a trailer battery power distribution unit, a trailer power converter, a trailer-related controller, and a tractor battery. The trailer battery power distribution unit is connected to the vehicle domain controller. The trailer power converter is connected to both the trailer-related controller and the trailer battery power distribution unit, and, upon being activated by the trailer battery power distribution unit, converts the high-voltage electricity from the trailer's power battery into the operating voltage required by the trailer-related controller, thus powering the trailer-related controller.

Therefore, by using the tractor battery to provide unified power to both the tractor and trailer, vehicle weight and cost can be effectively reduced, trailer battery depletion can be minimized, and trailer status can be monitored in real time, thereby improving system safety and user experience.
