[0043] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used in the description herein is for describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. As used in the description herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0044] In the actual use of the emergency starting power supply of the automobile, it is usually necessary to connect the clip assembly with the automobile storage battery to provide the current required for starting the automobile. In this process, the user needs to correctly connect the clip assembly (positive clip and negative clip) of the emergency starting power supply to the corresponding polarity terminal of the automobile storage battery. However, since the clip assembly of the emergency starting power supply includes a positive clip and a negative clip, in actual operation, the user may connect the clip assembly of the emergency starting power supply with the polarity terminal of the automobile storage battery in reverse due to unclear identification or operation error, and thus the emergency starting fails, and the internal circuit elements of the automobile may be damaged, and even a safety hazard problem may be caused.

[0045] In view of this, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiments of the present application provide a reverse connection prevention device 10, which is applied to control the charging state of the emergency starting power supply to the automobile storage battery.

[0046] The reverse connection prevention device 10 includes a clip assembly 100 and a control unit 200, the control unit 200 is provided with a piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300, the clip assembly 100 is configured to be connected with the automobile storage battery, the clip assembly 100 is electrically connected to the control unit 200, and the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300 generates a corresponding deformation signal according to the connection state of the clip assembly 100 and the automobile storage battery.

[0047] The control unit 200 determines the connection state of the clip assembly 100 and the automobile storage battery according to the deformation signal of the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300, if the clip assembly 100 is connected with the automobile storage battery in positive, the control unit 200 controls the emergency starting power supply to charge the automobile storage battery, and if the clip assembly 100 is connected with the automobile storage battery in reverse, the control unit 200 controls the emergency starting power supply to stop charging the automobile storage battery.

[0048] Thus, the control unit 200 determines whether the clip assembly 100 is correctly connected according to the deformation signal output by the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300, and controls whether the emergency starting power supply charges the automobile storage battery accordingly. In the case of correct connection of the clip assembly 100, the emergency starting power supply normally supplies power; and in the case of reverse connection of the clip assembly 100, the emergency starting power supply quickly cuts off the power output, effectively preventing reverse current flow caused by reverse polarity, avoiding damage to the automobile electrical system and the emergency starting power supply itself, and significantly improving the safety and reliability of use.

[0049] In addition, the reverse connection prevention device 10 can realize real-time sensing of the connection state between the clip assembly 100 and the automobile storage battery by setting the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300, and outputting corresponding electrical signals according to the mechanical deformation generated during clamping, thereby realizing automatic recognition of the connection polarity. This detection method based on physical contact deformation has fast response speed and high sensitivity, and has simple structure and controllable cost, and is suitable for large-scale popularization and application.

[0050] Moreover, the reverse connection prevention device 10 does not need to rely on complex electronic recognition circuits or additional sensor elements, and can complete the connection state judgment only through the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300, thereby simplifying the overall control logic and improving the stability and anti-interference ability of the reverse connection prevention device 10. At the same time, the reverse connection prevention device 10 can be adapted to different specifications of emergency starting power supplies and various types of automobile storage batteries, and has good universality and compatibility.

[0051] In some embodiments, the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300 includes a piezoelectric ceramic element 310 and a travel switch 320, both of which are electrically connected to the control unit 200;

[0052] If the clip assembly 100 is connected to the automobile storage battery in the correct way, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 is elongated and deformed and triggers the travel switch 320 to be in a conductive state, and the control unit 200 controls the emergency starting power supply to charge the automobile storage battery according to the conductive state of the travel switch 320;

[0053] If the clip assembly 100 is connected to the automobile storage battery in the reverse way, the travel switch 320 is in a disconnected state, and the control unit 200 controls the emergency starting power supply to stop charging the automobile storage battery according to the disconnected state of the travel switch 320.

[0054] Specifically, when the clip assembly 100 is correctly connected to the automobile battery terminals (i.e., the positive clip 110 is connected to the positive terminal, and the negative clip 120 is connected to the negative terminal), the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 is subjected to uniform and expected pressure, and elongation deformation occurs. When the elongation deformation reaches a set threshold, the travel switch 320 is triggered to switch from the initial off state to the on state, thereby sending a normal connection electrical signal to the control unit 200. After receiving the on signal of the travel switch 320, the control unit 200 confirms that the clip assembly 100 is in a positive connection state, and allows the emergency starting power supply to supply power to the automobile battery, starting the charging process.

[0055] Conversely, if the clip assembly 100 is in a reverse connection state with the automobile battery (i.e., the positive clip 110 is connected to the negative terminal or the negative clip 120 is connected to the positive terminal), the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 cannot produce the expected elongation deformation, resulting in the travel switch 320 failing to be triggered and remaining in the off state. The control unit 200 detects the off signal of the travel switch 320, determines that the clip assembly 100 is connected with incorrect polarity, and immediately controls the emergency starting power supply to stop outputting current, cutting off the charging path, to prevent electrical damage and safety accidents caused by reverse connection.

[0056] The reverse connection prevention device 10 realizes physical signal conversion and circuit feedback mechanism of the connection state of the clip assembly 100 through the cooperation of the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 and the travel switch 320, and has the advantages of compact structure, rapid response, accurate judgment, etc. At the same time, the reverse connection prevention device 10 does not need to introduce a complex electronic recognition module, which reduces the complexity and manufacturing cost of the reverse connection prevention device 10, and improves the stability and practicality of the reverse connection prevention device 10.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the control unit 200 is also provided with a control switch U103 configured to control the charging state of the automobile battery and the emergency starting power supply; the on-off action of the control switch U103 is dynamically controlled by the control unit 200 according to the working state of the travel switch 320, thereby realizing accurate management of the charging process.

[0058] If the travel switch 320 is in the on state, the control unit 200 controls the control switch U103 to be in the on state. If the travel switch 320 is in the off state, the control unit 200 controls the control switch U103 to be in the off state.

[0059] When the clip assembly 100 is correctly connected to the automobile battery terminals (i.e., the positive clip 110 is connected to the positive terminal and the negative clip 120 is connected to the negative terminal), the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 is elongated under the action of the positive voltage and triggers the travel switch 320 associated therewith to enter the conduction state. After the control unit 200 detects the conduction signal of the travel switch 320, it is determined that the clip assembly 100 is in the positive connection state, and the control switch U103 is controlled to enter the conduction state synchronously, thereby turning on the current path between the emergency starting power supply and the automobile battery, enabling the emergency starting power supply to normally supply power to the automobile battery, and completing the starting or charging operation.

[0060] On the contrary, if the clip assembly 100 and the automobile battery are in the reverse polarity connection state (for example, the positive clip 110 is connected to the negative terminal or the negative clip 120 is connected to the positive terminal), the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 does not deform or is compressed, the travel switch 320 is not triggered, and remains in the open state. The control unit 200 determines that the clip assembly 100 is connected incorrectly according to the open signal of the travel switch 320, and controls the control switch U103 to enter the open state, thereby cutting off the charging path between the emergency starting power supply and the automobile battery, preventing reverse current from flowing, and avoiding damage to the vehicle electrical system or the internal circuit of the emergency starting power supply.

[0061] In this way, by setting the control switch U103 in the control unit 200 and controlling it according to the state of the travel switch 320, intelligent control and safety protection of the charging path are achieved. The control mechanism is simple in structure, fast in response, and clear in logic, which not only improves the stability and reliability of the reverse connection prevention device 10, but also effectively improves the safety and intelligent level of the emergency starting power supply in use.

[0062] In some embodiments, the control switch U103 uses an electromagnetic relay as an execution element for controlling the charging path between the emergency starting power supply and the automobile battery. The electromagnetic relay has high current carrying capacity and can stably turn on and off large current, which is suitable for the application scenario of instantaneous high current output in the emergency starting process.

[0063] Unlike the travel switch 320, the travel switch 320 is mainly used to detect the connection state between the clip assembly 100 and the automobile battery, and its role is to feedback whether the clamping action is in place and whether the polarity is correct. Since the travel switch 320 only needs to transmit a control signal and does not need to carry a large current of the main circuit, its design is not suitable for directly passing a large current. If the travel switch 320 is used for the main circuit on-off, the contact may be burned or misoperation due to overload, affecting the stability and safety of the reverse connection prevention device 10.

[0064] In this way, the travel switch 320 is only used to provide a connection state signal to the control unit 200, and the on-off of the main circuit is completed by the electromagnetic relay with large current carrying capacity. This division of labor design not only improves the reliability of the anti-reverse connection device 10, but also effectively protects the safety of the control circuit. By cooperatively arranging the travel switch 320 and the electromagnetic relay in the control unit 200, layered control and multiple protection of the charging process are realized, thereby improving the working efficiency and safety level of the entire anti-reverse connection device 10.

[0065] Referring to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the control unit 200 is also provided with the power amplification circuit 500 connected to the piezoelectric ceramic element 310. If the clip assembly 100 is connected to the automobile storage battery in the positive direction, the power amplification circuit 500 amplifies the input voltage exciting the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 to increase the elongation deformation degree of the piezoelectric ceramic element 310.

[0066] Specifically, the power amplification circuit 500 is connected to the input end of the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 for power amplification processing of the driving voltage applied to the piezoelectric ceramic element 310. The introduction of the power amplification circuit 500 aims to enhance the energy output of the driving signal, thereby improving the response performance and deformation amplitude of the piezoelectric ceramic element 310.

[0067] When the clip assembly 100 is correctly connected to the automobile storage battery terminals (i.e. the positive clip 110 is connected to the positive terminal and the negative clip 120 is connected to the negative terminal), the clamping action causes the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 to be uniformly pressed and receive the driving voltage provided by the control unit 200. At this time, the power amplification circuit 500 is started to power amplify the input voltage, thereby increasing the effective voltage value applied across the piezoelectric ceramic element 310. Under the action of enhanced voltage, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 produces a greater degree of elongation deformation, further pushing the travel switch 320 to act, so that it more reliably enters the conduction state.

[0068] In this way, through the enhancing effect of the power amplification circuit 500 on the driving voltage, the deformation sensitivity and triggering stability of the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 are significantly improved. This not only improves the accuracy of the connection state detection of the clip assembly 100, but also helps to ensure the stable triggering of the travel switch 320 in the case of small clamping force or slight unevenness of the contact surface, avoiding the occurrence of false or missed judgment due to weak signal.

[0069] In some embodiments, the power amplification circuit 500 comprises a comparator OP467, a converter 510 and a starting switch unit IRF840; the positive input terminal of the comparator OP467 is connected to the clip assembly 100, the negative input terminal of the comparator OP467 is connected to the output terminal of the converter 510, the output terminal of the comparator OP467 is connected to the starting switch unit IRF840, and the starting switch unit IRF840 is connected to the piezoelectric ceramic element 310.

[0070] Specifically, the positive input terminal of the comparator OP467 is connected to the clip assembly 100 for receiving the induced voltage signal generated by the clip assembly 100 when the clip assembly 100 clamps the terminal of the automobile storage battery; the negative input terminal of the comparator OP467 is connected to the output terminal of the converter 510 for receiving the reference voltage signal corresponding to the set threshold value; and the output terminal of the comparator OP467 is connected to the control terminal of the starting switch unit IRF840 for sending the on or off instruction to the starting switch unit IRF840 according to the comparison result of the input signal. The starting switch unit IRF840 is arranged between the power amplification circuit 500 and the piezoelectric ceramic element 310, and the output terminal of the starting switch unit IRF840 is connected to the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 for controlling whether to apply the amplified driving voltage to the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 according to the output signal of the comparator OP467.

[0071] When the clip assembly 100 correctly clamps the terminal of the automobile storage battery, the clip assembly 100 generates the corresponding electrical signal and transmits the electrical signal to the positive input terminal of the comparator OP467. The comparator OP467 compares the signal with the reference voltage provided by the converter 510. If the signal generated by the clip assembly 100 is higher than the reference voltage, it indicates that the clamping state is normal and the polarity is correct, the comparator OP467 outputs a high-level signal to trigger the starting switch unit IRF840 to turn on, so that the enhanced voltage output by the power amplification circuit 500 acts on the piezoelectric ceramic element 310, prompting the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 to generate a greater degree of elongation deformation, thereby reliably triggering the on state of the travel switch 320.

[0072] On the contrary, if the clip assembly 100 is in reverse connection, the electrical signal output by the clip assembly 100 is lower than the reference voltage, the comparator OP467 outputs a low-level signal, and the starting switch unit IRF840 remains in the off state, preventing the power amplification circuit 500 from applying the high-voltage signal to the piezoelectric ceramic element 310, avoiding the occurrence of misoperation, and protecting the stability and safety of the circuit system.

[0073] In some embodiments, the starting switch unit IRF840 is an N-type mos tube, the gate of the N-type mos tube is connected to the output terminal of the converter 510, the source of the N-type mos tube is connected to the piezoelectric ceramic element 310, and the drain of the N-type mos tube is connected to the positive voltage.

[0074] Specifically, the gate of the N-type MOS tube is connected to the output end of the comparator OP467 for receiving the control signal output by the comparator OP467; the source of the N-type MOS tube is connected to one end of the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 as the output end of the driving voltage; and the drain of the N-type MOS tube is connected to the positive voltage source to provide the high voltage driving energy required for the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 to work.

[0075] During the operation of the device, when the clamp assembly 100 correctly clamps the terminal of the automobile storage battery, the clamp assembly 100 generates a corresponding induced voltage signal and inputs the signal to the positive input end of the comparator OP467. The comparator OP467 compares the signal with the reference voltage input to the negative input end. If the induced voltage is higher than the reference voltage, the comparator OP467 outputs a high-level signal, which is applied to the gate of the N-type MOS tube to make the MOS tube conductive. At this time, the positive voltage flows from the drain to the source of the MOS tube, and is amplified by the power amplification circuit 500 and then applied to the piezoelectric ceramic element 310, so as to make the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 produce elongation deformation, thereby triggering the connected travel switch 320 to enter the conductive state and realizing the safe access of the emergency starting power supply.

[0076] Conversely, when the clamp assembly 100 is in the reverse connection state, the induced voltage output by the clamp assembly 100 is lower than the reference voltage, the comparator OP467 outputs a low-level signal, and the N-type MOS tube is in the off state, thereby cutting off the path between the positive voltage and the piezoelectric ceramic element 310, preventing misoperation from occurring, protecting the circuit system from abnormal current damage, and improving the safety and stability of the operation of the device.

[0077] In this way, the N-type MOS tube is used as the starting switch unit IRF840, which not only has the characteristics of fast response speed, low conduction voltage drop and high control precision, but also is directly connected with the comparator OP467, simplifies the control logic, and improves the integration and reliability of the overall circuit. The structure design is reasonable, the control mode is efficient, and it is helpful to enhance the adaptability and practical performance of the anti-reverse connection device 10 in complex use environment.

[0078] In some embodiments, the power amplification circuit 500 further comprises a filter capacitor C2 connected to the positive input end of the comparator OP467 and the output end of the comparator OP467.

[0079] Specifically, one end of the filter capacitor C2 is connected to the positive input terminal of the comparator OP467 for receiving the induced voltage signal from the clamp assembly 100; the other end of the filter capacitor C2 is connected to the output terminal of the comparator OP467 to form an RC filter network structure. This structure can effectively suppress high-frequency noise interference in the input signal during the operation of the comparator OP467, prevent false judgment caused by transient fluctuations or external electromagnetic interference, and thus improve the accuracy and reliability of the detection process of the entire anti-reverse connection device 10.

[0080] In addition, the filter capacitor C2 also has a certain signal delay and stabilizing effect, which can smooth the trend of the input signal in the initial stage of the clamp assembly 100 contacting the terminal of the automobile storage battery, avoid frequent switching of the output state of the comparator OP467 due to signal jump, and thus improve the stability of the operation of the starting switch unit IRF840 (such as N-type MOS tube) and prolong its service life.

[0081] Thus, by introducing the filter capacitor C2, the power amplifier circuit 500 can still maintain good anti-interference ability and working consistency in a complex electromagnetic environment, providing a strong guarantee for the accurate driving of the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 and further enhancing the safety, stability and practicality of the anti-reverse connection device 10 in actual application.

[0088] In the embodiment of the application, the control logic of the buzzer BUZZER100, the first indicator light D_A100 and the second indicator light D_A101 is as follows:

[0089] 1. When the clip assembly 100 and the positive and negative poles of the automobile storage battery are connected correctly, the control unit 200 controls the buzzer BUZZER100 to always sound, and controls the first indicator light D_A100 (green light) to always be on, so that the emergency starting power supply can be used for emergency starting.

[0090] 2. When the clip and the positive and negative poles of the automobile storage battery are connected reversely, the control unit 200 controls the buzzer BUZZER100 to sound at a frequency of 0.5s, and controls the second indicator light D_A101 (red light) to flash, so that the emergency starting power supply cannot be used for emergency starting.

[0091] Please refer to Figure 1 to Figure 8The embodiment of the application also provides a reverse connection prevention method, which is applied to the reverse connection prevention device 10 in any of the above embodiments. The control unit 200 is further provided with a control switch U103, which is configured to control the charging state of the automobile storage battery and the emergency starting power supply. The reverse connection prevention method comprises steps 100, 200, 300 and 400.

[0092] Step 100: obtaining a generated deformation signal of the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300.

[0093] The piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300 generates a corresponding deformation signal in response to the clamping action between the clip assembly 100 and the automobile storage battery. Specifically, when the clip assembly 100 clamps the terminal of the automobile storage battery, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 mechanically deforms under the action of a positive voltage and converts the physical deformation into a corresponding voltage signal output. The control unit 200 receives the deformation signal generated by the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300 in real time through the signal acquisition circuit and performs filtering, amplification and analog-to-digital conversion processing on the signal to obtain effective data that can be used to determine the connection state of the clip assembly 100.

[0094] Further, the deformation signals output by the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300 under different connection states have obvious differences. For example, when the clip assembly 100 is correctly connected to the polarity terminal of the corresponding automobile storage battery, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 is subjected to uniform pressure, generates stable elongation deformation and outputs a voltage signal that meets the preset range; and in the case of polarity error of the clip assembly 100, the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300 does not generate deformation or even reversely compresses, and the output signal deviates from the normal threshold range. The control unit 200 can accurately identify whether the clip assembly 100 is effectively connected according to the received signal characteristics and in combination with the preset judgment logic, thereby providing a reliable basis for subsequent control operations.

[0095] Step 200: determining the connection state of the clip assembly 100 and the automobile storage battery based on the deformation signal.

[0096] The control unit 200 analyzes and processes the received deformation signal and identifies whether the clip assembly 100 is correctly connected to the corresponding polarity terminal of the automobile storage battery in combination with the preset judgment threshold.

[0097] Specifically, the control unit 200 is internally provided with a signal processing module, which performs analog-to-digital conversion and feature extraction on the deformation signal output by the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300, obtains key parameters such as voltage amplitude, waveform characteristics and change trend and the like. Subsequently, the signal processing module compares the obtained signal parameters with the preset reference threshold to determine whether the clamping state of the clip assembly 100 meets the positive connection condition.

[0098] If the deformation signal output by the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300 is within the normal threshold range, it indicates that the clamp assembly 100 is subjected to uniform and stable clamping force, the clamping position is correct, and the polarity connection of the clamp assembly 100 and the automobile storage battery is matched. The control unit 200 determines that it is a "positive connection" state accordingly. Conversely, if the deformation signal is lower than or significantly deviates from the set threshold, it indicates that the clamp assembly 100 is poorly clamped or there is a polarity misconnection. The control unit 200 determines that it is a "reverse connection" state.

[0099] In this embodiment, the control unit 200 uses multi-level judgment logic. Not only is the amplitude of the deformation signal used for judgment, but also the duration and rate of change of the signal are combined for comprehensive analysis, thereby effectively avoiding misjudgment caused by transient interference or temporary poor contact, and improving the accuracy and reliability of the judgment result.

[0100] Step 300: If the clamp assembly 100 is connected to the automobile storage battery in a positive manner, control the control switch U103 to be closed.

[0101] When the control unit 200 confirms that the clamp assembly 100 and the automobile storage battery are in a correct connection state (i.e., a positive connection state), it immediately triggers a control signal to drive the control switch U103 to perform a closing action.

[0102] Specifically, the control unit 200 is internally provided with a control logic module. After receiving the positive connection judgment result corresponding to the deformation signal, the control logic module sends a closing instruction signal to the control switch U103. The control switch U103 responds to the instruction signal and switches from an open state to a conductive state, thereby establishing a charging circuit between the emergency starting power supply and the automobile storage battery, allowing the emergency starting power supply to normally supply power to the automobile storage battery, completing the charging or starting operation.

[0103] In this embodiment, the control switch U103 uses an electronic relay or a solid-state switching element with high reliability, which has fast response capability and good load bearing capacity, and can complete the on-off operation within milliseconds, ensuring the safety and stability of system operation. At the same time, the control unit 200 is also configured with a delay control mechanism, which performs the closing operation after confirming that the positive connection state is stable for a certain period of time, further preventing unintended charging behavior caused by accidental touch or temporary contact.

[0104] Through this step, the automatic charging path opening function under the premise of correct connection of the clamp assembly 100 is realized, effectively avoiding the risk of circuit damage caused by reverse connection, and improving the safety and intelligent level of the anti-reverse connection device 10 in actual use.

[0105] Step 400: If the clamp assembly 100 is connected to the automobile storage battery in a reverse manner, control the control switch U103 to be opened.

[0106] When the control unit 200 confirms that the clip assembly 100 is connected to the automobile storage battery in reverse polarity (i.e. in reverse connection state), the control unit 200 immediately executes a protective control strategy, sends a disconnection instruction signal to the control switch U103 to ensure that the charging path between the emergency starting power supply and the automobile storage battery is in a disconnected state.

[0107] Specifically, when the control unit 200 identifies that the deformation signal output by the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300 is below the set threshold value or an abnormal distribution pattern occurs, it is determined that the clip assembly 100 is not correctly connected to the corresponding polarity terminal of the automobile storage battery. At this time, the control logic module of the control unit 200 responds quickly and outputs a high or low control signal (depending on the circuit design) to drive the control switch U103 to switch from a closed state to a disconnected state, thereby effectively cutting off the current path between the emergency starting power supply and the automobile storage battery, preventing short circuits, component damage or safety hazards caused by reverse connection.

[0108] Further, in the present embodiment, the control unit 200 is also configured with a reverse connection state recording mechanism, which can store information of the present reverse connection event, so that the relevant data can be read through the diagnostic interface for subsequent fault analysis or user operation guidance. At the same time, this step can also be linked with other safety mechanisms, such as triggering an alarm prompt, lighting an indicator light or issuing a voice reminder, to guide the user to correct the connection error in time.

[0109] Through this step, the automatic power-off protection function in the case of reverse connection of the clip assembly 100 is realized, effectively improving the safety performance and intelligent level of the reverse connection prevention device 10, and avoiding equipment damage and personal risk caused by misoperation.

[0110] In some embodiments, step 100 includes step 110 and step 120.

[0111] Step 110: When the clip assembly 100 is connected to the automobile storage battery in a positive direction, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 triggers the travel switch 320 due to elongation and sends a positive connection signal to the control unit 200.

[0112] When the clip assembly 100 is connected to the automobile storage battery in a positive direction, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 triggers the travel switch 320 due to elongation and sends a positive connection signal to the control unit 200, and at the same time, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 generates an electrical signal under the action of mechanical stress and also undergoes physical deformation, such as elongation along the polarization direction.

[0113] When the user correctly clamps the positive clamp 110 and the negative clamp 120 of the clamp assembly 100 to the corresponding terminals of the automobile storage battery, the clamping action applies pressure to the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 through the conduction structure, causing it to produce directional elongation deformation. When the elongation reaches a set threshold, the travel switch 320 arranged adjacent is triggered, and the travel switch 320 switches the working state in response to the physical displacement change and generates a corresponding electrical signal as a positive connection signal, which is transmitted to the control unit 200.

[0114] The positive connection signal not only indicates that the clamp assembly 100 has been correctly connected to the automobile storage battery, but also reflects whether the clamping force is stable enough. The control unit 200 determines whether the current connection state meets the safe charging condition according to the signal, providing a basis for the control logic in the subsequent steps.

[0115] The present embodiment realizes the dual detection function of the connection polarity and the clamping state of the clamp assembly 100 by combining the mechanical properties of the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 and the action mechanism of the travel switch 320, improving the judgment accuracy of the anti-reverse connection method and the reliability of the system response.

[0116] Step 120: When the clamp assembly 100 is reversely connected to the automobile storage battery, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 does not deform or does not trigger the travel switch 320 due to shortening, and sends a reverse connection signal to the control unit 200.

[0117] When the clamp assembly 100 is reversely connected to the automobile storage battery, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 does not deform or does not trigger the travel switch 320 due to shortening, and sends a reverse connection signal to the control unit 200. During the process, if the user incorrectly connects the positive clamp 110 of the clamp assembly 100 to the negative terminal of the automobile storage battery or connects the negative clamp 120 to the positive terminal, i.e., forms a reverse connection state, the direction of the force applied by the clamp assembly 100 to the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300 or the stress distribution changes.

[0118] At this time, the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 arranged in the clamping structure does not undergo the expected elongation deformation due to the absence of positive pressure along the polarization direction or the presence of force in the opposite direction, or even undergoes contraction deformation. The deformation amount cannot reach the action threshold of the travel switch 320, so the travel switch 320 remains in the open state and does not generate a corresponding electrical signal output.

[0119] The control unit 200 identifies that the clip assembly 100 is not clamped correctly or there is a polarity misconnection by monitoring the state change of the travel switch 320 and the output signal of the piezoelectric ceramic element 310 itself, and generates a reverse connection signal accordingly. The reverse connection signal is used to indicate that the current clip assembly 100 is in a reverse connection state, and the control system then executes a protection mechanism to prevent the control switch U103 from malfunctioning, ensuring that the emergency starting power supply does not supply power to the automobile storage battery, thereby avoiding circuit damage or safety accidents caused by reverse connection.

[0120] Through this step, automatic identification and feedback function in the reverse connection state of the clip assembly 100 is realized, the detection accuracy and system safety of the reverse connection prevention method are enhanced, and a reliable basis is provided for the subsequent control strategy.

[0121] The embodiment of the application also provides an emergency starting power supply device, and the reverse connection prevention device 10 is provided with a first connection terminal 210, which is electrically connected with the control unit 200 and serves as an electrical interface between the reverse connection prevention device 10 and the emergency starting power supply. The emergency starting power supply is provided with a second connection terminal, which is arranged on the shell of the emergency starting power supply and is connected with the power supply circuit inside the emergency starting power supply, and is used to provide working power and output current for the reverse connection prevention device 10.

[0122] The first connection terminal 210 and the second connection terminal adopt a pluggable matching structure, so that the reverse connection prevention device 10 can be conveniently physically connected and electrically conducted with the emergency starting power supply. When the two connection terminals are plugged in, the control unit 200, the piezoelectric ceramic assembly 300, the travel switch 320, the starting switch unit IRF840 and other modules can all obtain power supply through the connection structure and perform signal interaction with the main control system of the emergency starting power supply, so as to realize real-time monitoring of the connection state of the clip assembly 100 and intelligent control of the power supply output.

[0123] Further, the first connection terminal 210 and the second connection terminal are provided with a mistaken plugging prevention structure, such as a positioning protrusion or a groove, a polarity locking mechanism and the like, to ensure that the connection direction is correct and avoid poor contact or circuit short circuit problems caused by incorrect plugging. In addition, the connection terminal also has good conductivity and mechanical durability, can withstand frequent plugging operations, and meets the demand of large current instantaneous output in the vehicle starting process.
