By monitoring changes in the mains power supply status and / or equipment operating status through operating parameters and abnormal operating conditions, the power distribution status of at least one target power distribution module corresponding to the abnormal operating conditions can be adjusted when an abnormality occurs. This allows for timely interruption of fault-related operating processes, resulting in rapid fault resolution without affecting the normal operation of other processes unrelated to the fault. Furthermore, it reduces the wear and tear on components in the power cabinet caused by the fault and lowers control costs.

[0030] Based on the second operating current and the second operating voltage sampled by the monitoring module at the output terminal of the conversion module, the total power output by the conversion module is determined.

[0031] When the sum of the operating power of the device electrically connected to the controllable switch and the total output power of the conversion module is greater than a preset threshold, the controllable switch of the device with the largest absolute value of operating power is disconnected one by one until the sum of the operating power of the device electrically connected to the controllable switch and the total output power of the conversion module is less than or equal to the preset threshold.

[0032] In the above technical solution, the main controller monitors whether the battery pack or load has a fault based on the correlation between the output power of the conversion module and the operating power of the battery pack and load connected to the output terminal of the conversion module. By turning off the controllable switching devices corresponding to the battery pack or load that affect the correlation, the impact of the fault on the power cabinet is interrupted in a timely manner. Compared with the method of breaking the fuse in related technologies, the fault troubleshooting efficiency is improved.

[0063] The accompanying drawings illustrate specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0064] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0065] With the development of the communications industry, the continuous upgrading of communication power supply products, and the gradual expansion of communication network base stations, power supply cabinets, as important backup power protection equipment, play a crucial role. When a power supply cabinet malfunctions, the common approach is to rely on the blowing of electric fuses to protect the power supply cabinet and its output-connected equipment. This is followed by manual troubleshooting and repair by staff. However, this method is inefficient and affects the normal operation of the power supply cabinet. Therefore, how to quickly troubleshoot power supply cabinet malfunctions has become a key research focus.

[0066] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a power supply system and its control method, control device, and main controller. The technical concept of this application is as follows: the main controller remotely controls multiple power supply cabinets. Based on the DC and AC side operating parameters sampled and uploaded by the monitoring modules in each power supply cabinet, the operating status of the power supply cabinets is monitored. When abnormal operating parameters are detected, the power distribution of the power distribution modules in the power supply cabinet can be adjusted promptly based on these parameters. This proactively cuts off the faulty operating process, rather than passively waiting for the capacitor wire to blow and cut off the fault, thus improving fault handling efficiency and effectively preventing damage to the normal operation of the power supply cabinet from the fault.

[0067] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the power supply system provided in an exemplary embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, it includes a main controller 00 and at least one power supply cabinet that is communicatively connected to the main controller 00.

[0068] The power cabinet includes an AC power distribution module 11, a conversion module 12, a DC power distribution module 13, a battery module S1, and a monitoring module 14.

[0069] The input terminal of the AC power distribution module 11 is electrically connected to the mains power supply 10, and is used to adjust the capacity of the AC power connected to the power cabinet and output the corresponding AC power signal.

[0070] The input terminal of the conversion module 12 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the AC power distribution module 11, and is used to convert the AC signal and output a DC signal with a target voltage value.

[0071] The input terminal of the DC power distribution module 13 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the conversion module 12, and the output terminal is electrically connected to the battery module S1 and the load 15, which is used to adjust the connection status between the battery module S1, the conversion module 12, and the load 15.

[0072] The monitoring module 14 is electrically connected to the DC power distribution module 13 and is used to sample the input power and output power of the DC power distribution module 13 in order to monitor whether the load 15 and the power module connected to the power cabinet have malfunctioned.

[0073] The monitoring module 14 is also electrically connected to the AC power distribution module 11 to sample the operating voltage and operating current values ​​of the AC power distribution module 11, thereby monitoring whether the AC power distribution module 11 is abnormally connected to the mains power.

[0074] The monitoring module 14 is communicatively connected to the main controller 00 and is used to upload the sampled data to the main controller 00 so that when the operation of each power distribution module meets the abnormal operating conditions, the main controller 00 adjusts the power distribution status of at least one target power distribution module corresponding to the abnormal operating conditions, and cuts off the generating equipment and interrupts the fault-related process in a timely manner.

[0075] The target power distribution module includes at least one of AC power distribution module 11 and DC power distribution module 13.

[0076] In some embodiments, the DC power distribution module 13 includes an AC surge protection circuit and a circuit breaker, wherein the AC surge protection circuit is used to release a large amount of pulse energy generated on the AC side circuit due to lightning strike induction, so as to protect the devices on the AC side circuit from damage.

[0077] Circuit breakers are used to prevent damage to power cabinet components when the AC current value is too high.

[0078] In some embodiments, the target power distribution module further includes AC contactors. By controlling the on / off state of the AC contactors, the capacity of the AC power connected to the power cabinet can be adjusted. The more AC contactors that are turned on, the greater the capacity of the AC power connected to the power cabinet.

[0079] In some embodiments, the main controller 00 determines the AC side's connection to mains power by sampling at least one of the voltage and current values ​​on the AC side, thereby adjusting the on / off state of the circuit breakers and AC contactors in the DC power distribution module 13. Specifically, when the detected voltage or current value is determined to be abnormal, the corresponding circuit breaker or AC contactor is shut off; when the detected voltage or current value is determined to be normal, the on / off state of the circuit breaker or AC contactor is adjusted based on the required connection capacity.

[0080] The conversion module 12 includes at least one rectifier circuit 121 for converting AC mains power into DC power.

[0081] The AC power distribution module 11 includes at least one set of AC contactors, and at least one set of AC contactors corresponds to at least one rectifier circuit 121. The AC contactors are connected in series between the AC power source and the corresponding rectifier circuit 121. Figure 1 In the circuit structure shown, the AC power distribution module 11 includes two sets of AC contactors: a first set of AC contactors K1 and a second set of AC contactors K2. The rectifier circuit 121 corresponding to each AC contactor has a capacity of 50A. When both sets of AC contactors are fully engaged, the current power supply cabinet provides a capacity of 100A. The number of AC contactors in this example is only one example; the actual number of AC contactors depends on the design capacity of the power supply cabinet.

[0082] More specifically, each rectifier circuit 121 includes a three-phase power input terminal, which is electrically connected to three AC contactors and three circuit breakers respectively.

[0083] In some embodiments, among the three-phase input terminals of the plurality of rectifier circuits 121, the input terminals of the same phase can be electrically connected to the same AC contactor or circuit breaker, or they can be electrically connected to the plurality of AC contactors or circuit breakers in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0084] In some embodiments, the conversion module 12 further includes at least one chopper circuit 122 for converting the voltage value of the DC power output by the rectifier circuit 121 into a target voltage value.

[0085] The input terminal of at least one chopper circuit 122 can be electrically connected to the output terminal of at least one rectifier circuit 121 to perform voltage regulation.

[0086] At least one chopper circuit 122 may also connect its input terminal to a point after the output terminal of at least one rectifier circuit 121 is electrically connected to that point.

[0087] In some embodiments, the output of at least one chopper circuit 122 is electrically connected to a single point, serving as the output of the conversion module 12.

[0088] DC power distribution module 13 includes at least one first controllable switching device K4 and at least one second controllable switching device K3, and battery module S1 includes at least one battery pack;

[0089] Each first controllable switch device K4 corresponds to at least one battery pack. For example, the number of first controllable switch devices K4 can be set to be the same as the number of battery packs, and the first controllable switch devices K4 correspond one-to-one to control the connection between the power supply pack and the conversion module 12.

[0090] For example, a first controllable switch device K4 can be set up, and multiple battery packs are connected in parallel. The first controllable switch device K4 is set between the positive terminal of multiple power supply packs and the output terminal of the conversion module 12. The first controllable switch device K4 manages the connection status of multiple power supply packs and conversion module 12.

[0091] More specifically, the first terminal of the first controllable switching device K4 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the conversion module 12, and the second terminal is electrically connected to the corresponding battery pack. The first controllable switching device K4 can be a contactor. In some embodiments, a fuse FU2 is also provided between the first controllable switching device K4 and the battery pack.

[0092] like Figure 1 As shown, the sampling point of the first controllable switching device K4 is point C.

[0093] The configuration relationship between the second controllable switching device K3 and the load 15 is similar to that between the first controllable switching device K4 and the corresponding battery pack, and will not be repeated here. The second controllable switching device K3 can be a relay or a controllable transistor.

[0094] Each second controllable switching device K3 corresponds to at least one load 15; the first end of the second controllable switching device K3 is electrically connected to the output end of the conversion module 12, and the second end is electrically connected to the corresponding load 15; in some embodiments, a fuse FU1 is also provided between the second controllable switching device K3 and the load 15.

[0095] like Figure 1 As shown, the sampling point of the second controllable switching device K3 is point B.

[0096] The main controller 00 can be used to determine whether the load 15 or battery corresponding to the controllable switch device is faulty based on the operating parameters of the first controllable switch device K4, the second controllable switch device K3 and the operating parameters of the front-end output terminal.

[0097] In some embodiments, the DC power distribution module 13 further includes a DC surge protector for dissipating large amounts of pulse energy generated by lightning strike induction, thereby protecting devices on the DC side circuit from damage.

[0098] The monitoring module 14 includes a voltage sampler, a current sampler, and a communication module.

[0099] A voltage sampler is set at a preset position in the AC power distribution module 11 between the input terminal of the conversion circuit and the mains power supply to monitor the voltage value on the AC side.

[0100] The voltage sampler can also be set at the output of the conversion circuit, or at one end where each controllable switching device is connected to the corresponding control equipment, such as the second end. It is used to monitor the voltage value on the DC side.

[0101] In some embodiments, the voltage sampler may use a voltage divider circuit to sample the voltage.

[0102] The current sampler and voltage sampler are located in the same place, so we will not go into details here.

[0103] In some embodiments, the current sampler may use a sampling resistor connected in series in the circuit to convert the current value of the circuit it is in into a sampling voltage value.

[0104] In other embodiments, the current sampler may employ a Hall sensor to sample current values ​​without breaking the wire.

[0105] The communication module is connected to each current sampler and voltage sampler, which can be either electrical or wireless.

[0106] The communication module is connected to the main controller 00 and is used to upload the data sampled by the sampler to the main controller 00 in real time, so that the main controller 00 can monitor the operation of the power cabinet based on the obtained data and make corresponding control strategies in a timely manner.

[0107] In some embodiments, the communication interface between the communication module and each sampler and the main controller 00 adopts an RS485 interface, and the communication interface between the main controller 00 and the DC power distribution module 13 and the AC power distribution module 11 also adopts an RS485 interface. The RS485 interface is only one example; other communication protocols may also be used, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0108] In some embodiments, an air conditioner 16 is provided in the power cabinet, and the AC power distribution module 12 is used to supply power to the air conditioner 16.

[0109] Monitoring module 14 is used to sample the ambient temperature of the power cabinet;

[0110] The main controller 00 is used to adjust the temperature to be adjusted of the air conditioner 16 based on the ambient temperature of the power cabinet, so that the temperature to be adjusted of the air conditioner 16 follows the ambient temperature and the temperature adjustment target. Compared with the fixed temperature adjustment value in related technologies, this method is more flexible and more adaptable.

[0111] The control method of the power supply system provided in this application will be explained below through several embodiments.

[0112] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a control method for a power system according to an exemplary embodiment of this application. The main controller is the execution entity of the control method, and the method includes:

[0113] S101. Obtain the operating parameters of each power distribution module from the monitoring module.

[0114] Operating parameters include at least one of operating current and operating voltage.

[0115] Each power distribution module includes a DC power distribution module and an AC power distribution module.

[0116] After obtaining the operating parameters, the monitoring module transmits them to the main controller. The structure of the monitoring module, the sampling method, and the process of transmitting data to the main controller have been explained in the previous embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0117] S102. When the operating parameters meet the abnormal operating conditions, adjust the power distribution status of at least one target power distribution module corresponding to the abnormal operating conditions.

[0118] Abnormal operating conditions include the voltage range of at least one sampling point and the current range of at least one sampling point when a fault occurs.

[0119] Faults occurring at different locations will cause different sampling points to meet the abnormal operating conditions corresponding to the fault. The main controller can determine the fault by the operating parameters that meet the abnormal operating conditions, and then adjust the power distribution status of at least one target power distribution module according to the preset processing strategy.

[0120] More specifically, the corresponding controllable switching devices in the corresponding DC power distribution module and AC power distribution module are adjusted to change the current state, wherein the controllable switching devices include an on state or an off state.

[0121] The controllable switching devices in the DC power distribution module include the first controllable switching device and the second controllable switching device in the aforementioned embodiments.

[0122] The controllable switching devices in the AC power distribution module include the circuit breaker and AC contactor in the aforementioned embodiments.

[0123] The target power distribution module includes at least one of an AC power distribution module and a DC power distribution module.

[0124] In the above technical solution, the power cabinet is equipped with a monitoring module to monitor changes in the operating parameters of the AC and DC power distribution modules in the power cabinet. This allows for timely determination of the mains power supply status of the power cabinet and the operating status of the equipment connected to the output terminals of the power cabinet. By monitoring changes in the mains power supply status and / or equipment operating status through operating parameters and abnormal operating conditions, the power distribution status of at least one target power distribution module corresponding to the abnormal operating conditions can be adjusted when an abnormality occurs. This allows for timely interruption of fault-related operating processes, resulting in rapid fault resolution without affecting the normal operation of other processes unrelated to the fault. Furthermore, it reduces the wear and tear on components in the power cabinet caused by the fault and lowers control costs.

[0125] The control methods for the main controller will be explained in detail below for different faults.

[0126] In the control process targeting the AC side, the control methods of the master controller include, for example: Figure 3 The steps shown are as follows:

[0127] S101. Obtain the operating parameters of each power distribution module from the monitoring module; the operating parameters include at least one of the operating current and operating voltage.

[0128] The operating parameters include the three-phase AC voltage input to each group of AC contactors.

[0129] S1021. Turn off the AC contactor corresponding to the three-phase AC voltage that does not meet the preset power supply conditions, so as to adjust the AC power capacity connected to the power cabinet.

[0130] In some embodiments, the AC contactor corresponding to the missing phase of the three-phase AC voltage is turned off.

[0131] In other embodiments, AC contactors whose three-phase AC voltage amplitude is not within a preset voltage range are turned off. Specifically, if the voltage amplitude is less than the minimum value of the preset voltage range or greater than the maximum value of the preset voltage range, it is determined that the sampling terminal is connected to an abnormal mains power supply, and the corresponding AC contactor needs to be turned off.

[0132] In the above technical solution, by sampling the operating parameters of the AC contactor in the AC power distribution module through the monitoring module, the main controller can promptly shut off the relevant AC contactor when it detects a phase loss or abnormal amplitude of the three-phase AC power during the mains power supply process, thereby stopping the impact of the mains power on the output voltage waveform quality of the rectifier circuit and the stable operation of the downstream equipment, and ensuring the power supply stability of the power system.

[0133] In the control process targeting the DC side, the control methods of the main controller include, for example: Figure 4 The steps shown are as follows:

[0134] S101. Obtain the operating parameters of each power distribution module from the monitoring module; the operating parameters include at least one of the operating current and operating voltage.

[0135] The operating parameters include the operating parameters at the first terminal of each controllable switching device and the operating parameters at the output terminal of the conversion module. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the sampling point at the output of the conversion module is point A, the sampling point of the first controllable switch device K4 is point C, and the sampling point of the second controllable switch device K3 is point B.

[0136] S1022. When the operating parameters meet the abnormal operating conditions, modify the state of the controllable switching device corresponding to the abnormal operating conditions.

[0137] The states of a controllable switching device include either an on state or an off state.

[0138] In some embodiments, the main controller can determine the operating power of the device electrically connected to the controllable switching device based on the first operating current and the first operating voltage sampled by the monitoring module at the first terminal of each controllable switching device; wherein the device includes a load or a battery pack.

[0139] The operating power of the equipment is the product of the first operating current and the first operating voltage.

[0140] The main controller also determines the total power output of the conversion module based on the second operating current and the second operating voltage sampled by the monitoring module at the output terminal of the conversion module; the total power is the product of the second operating current and the second operating voltage.

[0141] Ideally, the sum of the operating power of the device corresponding to the controllable switching device and the total output power of the conversion module should be 0. To improve the robustness of the control, the DC power supply is considered to be normal and no fault has occurred when the sum of the operating power of the device corresponding to the controllable switching device and the total output power of the conversion module is less than or equal to a preset threshold.

[0142] When a fault occurs on the DC side, such as a short circuit, the current will change abruptly, and the corresponding voltage value will also increase accordingly. This can easily cause the total power on the DC side to exceed a preset threshold, requiring the corresponding controllable switching devices to be disconnected based on the power changes at each sampling point. In this case, the power value at the sampling point corresponding to the faulty device is relatively high.

[0143] More specifically, when the sum of the operating power of the device electrically connected to the controllable switching device and the total output power of the conversion module is greater than a preset threshold, the controllable switching devices of the devices with the largest absolute value of operating power are disconnected one by one until the sum of the operating power of the device electrically connected to the controllable switching device and the total output power of the conversion module is less than or equal to the preset threshold.

[0144] In some cases, when mains power is connected, the conversion circuit supplies power to the battery module and the load. Under normal circumstances, the difference between the output power of the conversion circuit and the sum of the absolute values ​​of the power supplied by the battery module and the load is less than or equal to a preset threshold.

[0145] In other cases, when the mains power is not connected, the power output of the conversion circuit is 0, the battery module supplies power to the load, and the difference between the power output of the battery module and the power consumed by the load is less than or equal to a preset threshold.

[0146] When the load is faulty, the power value obtained by the sampling value calculation of the second controllable switching device corresponding to the load will suddenly increase, and the second controllable switching device needs to be turned off; when the battery is faulty, the power value obtained by the sampling value calculation of the first controllable switching device corresponding to the battery will suddenly increase, and the first controllable switching device needs to be turned off.

[0147] In the above technical solution, the main controller monitors whether the battery pack or load has a fault based on the correlation between the output power of the conversion module and the operating power of the battery pack and load connected to the output terminal of the conversion module. By turning off the controllable switching devices corresponding to the battery pack or load that affect the correlation, the impact of the fault on the power cabinet is interrupted in a timely manner. Compared with the method of breaking the fuse in related technologies, the fault troubleshooting efficiency is improved.

[0148] In other embodiments, the main controller can determine the battery capacity of the battery pack electrically connected to each first controllable switch device based on the first operating current and first operating voltage sampled by the monitoring module at the first terminal of each first controllable switch device.

[0149] When the AC power distribution module is turned on, the first controllable switching device corresponding to a battery capacity greater than or equal to the first battery capacity threshold is turned off.

[0150] The first battery capacity threshold is the maximum value of the battery's rechargeable capacity.

[0151] The main controller can also turn on the first controllable switching device corresponding to a battery capacity greater than the second battery capacity threshold when the AC power distribution module is turned off;

[0152] When the battery capacity drops to the second battery capacity threshold, the first controllable switching device is turned off.

[0153] The second battery capacity threshold is the minimum value of the battery's discharge capacity.

[0154] In the above technical solution, the main controller determines the battery capacity of each battery pack through the operating parameters of the battery module, can adjust the working state of the battery pack based on the conduction status of the AC power distribution module, and protects the battery pack from damage caused by overcharging or undercharging by setting a first battery capacity threshold and a second battery capacity threshold.
