[0042] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, an electric vehicle variable capacity device includes a battery management controller 1 and a battery mounting housing 2.

[0044] Two symmetrically arranged fixed battery modules 3 are installed inside the battery mounting housing 2. The fixed battery modules 3 are fixed to provide a fixed electrical capacity for the electric vehicle. Several variable battery modules 4 are also installed inside the battery mounting housing 2. The variable battery modules 4 are circumferentially distributed in the annular limiting cavity 21 inside the battery mounting housing 2. The fixed battery modules 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the annular limiting cavity 21. The annular limiting cavity 21 is equipped with a reinforcing mechanism 5 and an adjusting and moving mechanism 6. Electric sealing doors 22 are provided on both sides of the annular limiting cavity 21.

[0045] like Figure 2-3 As shown, a sealing cover 23 is provided on the top of the battery mounting housing 2, and a cooling protection cavity 24 is provided at the bottom of the battery mounting housing 2. The cooling protection cavity 24 includes a fixed cooling section and a variable cooling section. A first cooling coil 25 is provided in the fixed cooling section, and a plurality of circumferential second cooling coils 26 are provided in the variable cooling section. The plurality of second cooling coils 26 are connected to an annular connecting pipe 27 through solenoid valves. Both the annular connecting pipe 27 and the first cooling coils 25 are connected to the electric vehicle cooling circulation system. The plurality of solenoid valves are electrically connected to the battery management controller 1, and the corresponding second cooling coils 26 are activated according to the actual distribution of the variable battery modules 4. At the same time, in order to improve the protection performance, a metal protective plate is provided at the bottom of the cooling protection cavity 24.

[0046] The reinforcement mechanism 5 includes a pressurizing air pump (not shown in the figure, which can be arranged inside the battery vehicle body according to the actual situation) and an annular ventilation pipe 51 connected to the pressurizing air pump. Several reinforcement airbags 52 are installed inside the annular ventilation pipe 51. A pressure sensor is installed inside the annular ventilation pipe 51. An exhaust solenoid valve is installed on the annular ventilation pipe 51. The exhaust solenoid valve, pressure sensor and pressurizing air pump are all electrically connected to the battery management controller 1. The pressure value of the pressure sensor is fed back in real time. During exhaust and inflation, an appropriate speed is maintained so that the variable battery module 4 descends and rises slowly to avoid violent impact or excessive pressure.

[0047] To facilitate the removal and adjustment of the distribution of the variable battery modules 4, an adjustment and moving mechanism 6 is provided. The adjustment and moving mechanism 6 includes a rotary motor 61 installed at the center of the annular limiting cavity 21. A connecting electric push rod 62 is mounted on the output shaft of the rotary motor 61. Both the rotary motor 61 and the connecting electric push rod 62 are electrically connected to the battery management controller 1. Figures 4-5 As shown, a guide ball 41 is provided at the bottom of the variable battery module 4. The guide ball 41 is located in the annular guide groove 28 at the bottom of the annular limiting cavity 21 to reduce friction during movement. A handle 42 is provided on the outside of the variable battery module 4, and a connecting slot 43 is provided on the inside of the variable battery module 4. The connecting slot 43 is positioned opposite to the telescopic end of the connecting electric push rod 62 to realize the insertion of the connecting electric push rod 62 and the corresponding variable battery module 4.

[0048] The top of the annular limiting cavity 21 is provided with a contact conductive connecting plate 7, such as Figure 6 As shown, a plurality of contact electrodes 71 are arranged in a circular pattern on one side of the contact conductive connection plate 7. The contact conductive connection plate 7 is electrically connected to the battery management controller 1 to realize the electrical connection between the variable battery module 4 and the contact conductive connection plate 7, as well as the output control of the variable battery module 4.

[0049] To further secure the variable battery module 4 during use, a linkage fixing mechanism 8 is provided on the inner side of the contact conductive connection plate 7, such as... Figures 7-8 As shown, the linkage fixing mechanism 8 includes a polygonal frame 81 installed inside the contact conductive connecting plate 7. Several rod mounting frames 82 are distributed circumferentially on the polygonal frame 81. A linkage gear 83 is installed in the center of each mounting frame 82. A top-fixing rack 84 meshes with the upper side of the linkage gear 83, and the lower side of the linkage gear 83 meshes with a drive rack 85 connected to the electric push rod 62. Adjacent linkage gears 83 are rotatably connected via a universal joint 86. This allows the top-fixing racks 84 to move synchronously outward or inward in multiple directions, achieving the fixing and release of multiple variable battery modules 4. To accommodate the top-fixing racks 84, the inner side of each variable battery module 4 is arc-shaped, ensuring that the distance between the variable battery module 4 and the top-fixing rack 84 is equal at different positions. Furthermore, to improve safety, anti-collision corner guards are provided at the four corners of each variable battery module 4.

[0050] The specific steps of the battery management control method based on the above-mentioned variable capacity device for electric vehicles are as follows:

[0051] Step S1: The driver inputs the trip level requirement into the vehicle controller. The vehicle controller then transmits the trip level requirement, environmental data, and driving habits data to the battery management controller. Trip levels include 100km, 200km, 300km, and 500km levels, which can be set and adjusted according to the actual requirements of the electric vehicle.

[0052] Environmental data includes road condition data, temperature data, and load data. Road condition data and load data can be obtained from the user's frequently used routes or directly input. Temperature data is acquired from real-time onboard temperature sensors.

[0053] When initially used, the driving habit data can be set initially. During the driving process of the electric vehicle, the data is recorded to obtain driving habit data, which includes the frequency and intensity of acceleration and braking.

[0054] Step S2: The battery management controller calculates the optimal electric vehicle capacity based on trip level requirements, environmental data, and driving habit data.

[0055] The formula for calculating the optimal electric vehicle capacity is as follows:

[0056]

[0057] in, This represents the optimal capacity for electric vehicles.

[0058] This represents the basic energy consumption requirement corresponding to the travel level. ,in The benchmark energy consumption per 100 kilometers for electric vehicles is 15 kWh / 100km for ordinary sedans and 18 kWh / 100km for SUVs, depending on the vehicle type.

[0059] The road condition correction factor is 1.2-1.5 for congested road sections, 1.1-1.3 for highways, 0.9-1.1 for smooth urban roads, and 0.8-1.0 for rural roads. The distance can be calculated in segments according to the actual situation and then summed up.

[0060] The temperature correction factor is 1.3-1.6 for ultra-low temperature environments below -10 degrees Celsius, 1.1-1.3 for low temperature environments (-9-0 degrees Celsius), 1.1 for sub-low temperature environments (0-18 degrees Celsius), 1 for normal temperature environments (18-25 degrees Celsius), and 1.1-13 for high temperature environments (above 35 degrees Celsius).

[0061] The load correction factor is 1.2-1.4 for full load, 1.0-1.1 for half load, and 0.9-1.0 for no load.

[0062] This is the driving habit correction factor, which is related to the frequency and intensity of acceleration and braking. For aggressive driving (rapid acceleration > 30%, rapid braking > 20%), use 1.2-1.5; for moderate driving (rapid acceleration 10%~30%, rapid braking 5%~20%), use 1.0-1.2; and for stable driving (rapid acceleration < 10%, rapid braking < 5%), use 0.9-1.0.

[0063] Step S3: Drive the electric vehicle variable capacity device according to the optimal electric vehicle capacity, open the electric sealing door 22, take out the excess variable battery module 4, close the electric sealing door 22 and readjust the distribution of the remaining variable battery module 4.

[0064] The process of calculating the number of redundant variable battery modules 4 based on the optimal electric vehicle capacity and removing the redundant variable battery modules 4 is as follows:

[0065] Before opening the electric sealing door 22, open the exhaust solenoid valve to exhaust the airbag 52, causing several variable battery modules 4 to descend and separate from the contact conductive connection plate 7, thereby de-energizing the variable battery modules 4. After a set time, open the electric sealing door 22.

[0066] Based on the number of excess variable battery modules 4, the variable battery modules 4 are moved sequentially to the electric sealing door 22 by adjusting the moving mechanism 6, and the excess variable battery modules 4 are pulled out.

[0067] After closing the electric sealing door 22, the remaining variable battery module 4 is moved by adjusting the moving mechanism 6 so that the remaining variable battery module 4 is evenly distributed around the circumference.

[0068] The process of moving the variable battery module 4 is as follows:

[0069] The rotary motor 61 adjusts the angle of the connecting electric push rod 62 according to the position of the variable battery module 4 to be moved. After reaching the position of the variable battery module 4 to be moved, the electric push rod extends and inserts into the connecting slot 43. The rotary motor 61 is started to move the variable battery module 4 to the set position. After the electric push rod retracts a set distance, the rotary motor 61 is started to move to the next position of the variable battery module 4 to be moved. After all the remaining variable battery modules 4 have been moved to the set position, the electric push rod retracts to the initial position. Several linkage gears 83 simultaneously drive the top fixing rack 84 to move outward until it contacts the variable battery module 4, thereby fixing the horizontal position of several variable battery modules 4. The pressurized air pump is started until the pressure of the annular ventilation pipe 51 reaches the set value, so that the remaining variable battery modules 4 contact the contact conductive connecting plate 7. At the same time, the variable battery modules 4 are fixed in the vertical direction.

[0070] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, and these modifications or equivalent substitutions cannot cause the modified technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
