Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle safety protection technology, specifically to a safety protection method, device, equipment, and computer-readable storage medium for thermal runaway of vehicle batteries. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, the safety of power batteries has become a core concern for the industry. In a state of thermal runaway, power batteries can release high-temperature, high-pressure harmful gases due to violent internal chemical reactions, including highly toxic components such as carbon monoxide and hydrogen fluoride. These gases can easily enter the passenger compartment through damage to the battery pack casing. On the one hand, toxic gases can cause occupants to become poisoned and unconscious within a short period, losing their ability to escape; on the other hand, the accumulation of high-pressure gases in the confined passenger compartment may trigger an explosion, posing a fatal threat to the lives of the occupants. To address this risk, the industry commonly employs solutions such as deploying temperature, pressure, and gas sensors inside the battery pack, or installing hazardous gas monitoring modules in the passenger compartment. When the monitoring system detects thermal runaway characteristic signals (such as a sudden temperature rise, excessive pressure, or excessive concentration of specific gases), it automatically triggers a safety response mechanism, releasing pressure by unlocking the doors and opening the windows, thus creating an escape route for the occupants. This technology has become an important component of the safety protection system for new energy vehicles. However, existing monitoring systems are prone to false triggering or misjudgment. Complex driving environments, such as abnormal localized battery pack temperatures due to high temperatures, sensor signal deviations caused by vibration interference, and the accidental triggering of the passenger compartment monitoring module by external irritating gases, can all cause the system to erroneously activate the door unlocking and window opening functions in safe, non-thermal runaway scenarios. This issue poses multiple safety hazards: accidentally opening windows while driving may lead to foreign object intrusion affecting driving operations; accidentally locking doors while parked may result in theft of valuables from inside the vehicle; and in extreme cases, accidental window opening could even expose occupants to secondary safety risks in inclement weather. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop optimized technologies that can accurately identify thermal runaway scenarios and prevent false triggering. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0016] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0017] First, some of the technical terms used in this application will be explained to help those skilled in the art understand this application.

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a safety protection method for thermal runaway of a vehicle battery.

[0020] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the first embodiment of the safety protection method for thermal runaway of vehicle batteries according to this application. Figure 1 As shown, the safety protection methods for vehicle battery thermal runaway include: Step S10: If it is determined that the vehicle is currently experiencing the thermal runaway event, then obtain the vehicle speed, status, information on people inside / outside the vehicle and / or the current rainfall value; As an example, it acquires the current gas concentration, gas change rate, and battery temperature rise rate inside the vehicle; The presence of a thermal runaway event is determined based on the in-vehicle gas concentration, the rate of gas change in the vehicle, and the battery temperature rise rate. A thermal runaway event is confirmed if the in-vehicle gas concentration, the rate of gas change in the vehicle, and the battery temperature rise rate all exceed preset limits. For example, the vehicle safety controller obtains gas concentration and the rate of gas change from gas sensors and the battery temperature rise rate from the battery management system. The in-vehicle gas concentration includes carbon monoxide and hydrogen. If the carbon monoxide concentration exceeds a preset gas concentration of 200 ppm, the hydrogen concentration exceeds 4% LEL, the in-vehicle gas change rate exceeds a preset gas change rate of 15°C / 5s, and the battery temperature rise rate exceeds a preset temperature rise rate of 1°C / s, a thermal runaway event is confirmed.

[0021] If a thermal runaway event is determined to occur in the vehicle, the system acquires the vehicle's speed, status, information on occupants (both inside and outside), and / or the current rainfall value. For example, the vehicle safety controller acquires the vehicle speed from the vehicle stability system (real-time speed); the vehicle safety controller acquires the vehicle's status from the vehicle entry system (including power-on or ignition status); the vehicle safety controller acquires information on occupants (both inside and outside) from the camera system (including occupant location and status information); and the vehicle safety controller acquires the current rainfall value from a rain sensor or weather information source.

[0022] Step S20: Determine a control strategy for safety protection based on the vehicle's speed, status, information on people inside / outside the vehicle, and / or the current rainfall value, wherein the safety strategy includes controlling the vehicle doors and / or windows.

[0023] As an example, if the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to 5 km / h, the windows will be lowered by 10% to release pressure, avoiding the risk of high-speed falls; or, if the vehicle is stationary, the windows will be fully lowered and the doors unlocked; or, if the vehicle is in a key-off state, the windows will be lowered by 10% to release pressure (for theft prevention / water ingress prevention); or, if the camera detects that an occupant is unconscious, the nearest door will be unlocked and the nearest window opened first, shortening the escape route; or, if the camera detects that a pedestrian is less than 3 meters away from the vehicle, an alarm will be triggered and the windows will be raised to reduce the risk of secondary injuries.

[0024] Specifically, determining the control strategy based on the vehicle's speed, status, information on people inside / outside the vehicle, and / or the current rainfall value includes: determining a first control strategy based on the vehicle's speed and status; determining a second control strategy based on the vehicle's speed, status, and information on people inside / outside the vehicle; and determining a third control strategy based on the vehicle's speed, status, and the rainfall value.

[0025] For example, if the vehicle speed is determined to be greater than or equal to a first preset speed, and the state is the first preset state, then the window is controlled to lower by 10%; if the vehicle speed is determined to be less than the first preset speed, and the state is the first preset state, then the window is controlled to fully lower and all doors are unlocked; if the state is determined to be the second preset state, and the vehicle speed is the second preset speed, then the window is controlled to lower by 10%. For instance, if the vehicle speed is determined to be greater than or equal to the first preset speed of 5 km / h, and the state is the first preset state Key On, then the window is controlled to lower by 10%; if the vehicle speed is determined to be less than the first preset speed of 5 km / h, and the state is the first preset state Key On, then the window is controlled to fully lower and all doors are unlocked; if the state is determined to be the second preset state Key Off, and the vehicle speed is the second preset speed of 0, then the window is controlled to lower by 10%.

[0026] If the vehicle speed is determined to be greater than or equal to the first preset speed, the status is the first preset state, and there are occupants inside / outside the vehicle, then the windows will be lowered by 10%. If the vehicle speed is determined to be less than the first preset speed, the status is the first preset state, and there are occupants inside / outside the vehicle, then the windows will be fully lowered and all doors will be unlocked. If the vehicle speed is determined to be the second preset speed, the status is the second preset state, and there are no occupants inside / outside the vehicle, then the windows will be lowered by 10%. For example, if the vehicle speed is determined to be greater than or equal to the first preset speed of 5 km / h, the status is the first preset state Key On, and there are occupants inside / outside the vehicle, then the windows will be lowered by 10%. If the vehicle speed is determined to be less than the first preset speed of 5 km / h, the status is the first preset state Key On, and there are occupants inside / outside the vehicle, then the windows will be fully lowered and all doors will be unlocked. If the vehicle speed is determined to be the second preset speed of 0, the status is the second preset state Key Off, and there are no occupants inside / outside the vehicle, then the windows will be lowered by 10%. If the door module or BCM loses the vehicle speed signal after receiving the thermal safety signal, the window will first drop by 10%. If the vehicle speed signal communication is not restored after more than 30 seconds, it will be judged as a timeout. The window will then be lowered to the maximum and the door lock will be unlocked.

[0027] If the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the first preset speed, the state is the first preset state, and the rainfall value is less than the first preset rainfall value, then control the window to drop by 10%; if the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the first preset speed, the state is the first preset state, and the rainfall value is greater than or equal to the second preset rainfall value, then control the window to drop by 15%; if the vehicle speed is less than the first preset speed, the state is the first preset state, and the rainfall value is less than or equal to the third preset rainfall value, then control the window to drop fully; if the vehicle speed is the second preset speed, the state is the second preset state, and the rainfall value is less than or equal to the fourth preset rainfall value, then control the window to drop by 10%; if the vehicle speed is the second preset speed, the state is the second preset state, and the rainfall value is greater than or equal to the second preset rainfall value, then control the window to drop by 10%. For example, if the vehicle speed is determined to be greater than or equal to the first preset speed of 5 km / h, the status is the first preset state Key On, and the rainfall value is less than the first preset rainfall value (moderate rain), then the window is controlled to drop by 10%; if the vehicle speed is determined to be greater than or equal to the first preset speed of 5 km / h, the status is the first preset state Key On, and the rainfall value is greater than or equal to the second preset rainfall value (heavy rain), then the window is controlled to drop by 15%; if the vehicle speed is determined to be less than the first preset speed of 5 km / h, the status is the first preset state Key On, and the rainfall value is less than or equal to the third preset rainfall value (no rain), then the window is controlled to drop fully; if the vehicle speed is determined to be the second preset speed of 0, the status is the second preset state Key Off, and the rainfall value is less than or equal to the third preset rainfall value (light rain), then the window is controlled to drop by 10%; if the vehicle speed is determined to be the second preset speed of 0, the status is the second preset state Key Off, and the rainfall value is greater than or equal to the second preset rainfall value (heavy rain), then the window is controlled to drop by 10%. The third preset rainfall value is less than the fourth preset rainfall value, the fourth preset rainfall value is less than the first preset rainfall value, and the first preset rainfall value is less than the second preset rainfall value.

[0028] After determining that the current vehicle has the thermal runaway event, the method further includes: generating an alarm signal and sending the alarm signal to the vehicle controller, so that the vehicle controller activates the warning device based on the alarm signal and sends warning information, wherein the warning information includes sound warning, video warning, signal warning and / or text warning.

[0029] In this embodiment, if it is determined that the vehicle is currently experiencing a thermal runaway event, the vehicle's speed, status, information on people inside and outside the vehicle, and / or the current rainfall value are obtained. Based on the vehicle's speed, status, information on people inside and outside the vehicle, and / or the current rainfall value, a control strategy is determined for safety protection. The safety strategy includes controlling the vehicle doors and / or windows to address the safety issues caused by automatic door unlocking and / or window opening when the vehicle thermal runaway monitoring system is falsely triggered or misjudged. This achieves simultaneous integration of vehicle speed, vehicle status, information on people inside and outside the vehicle, and rainfall information for escape route decision-making, avoiding safety hazards caused by false triggering.

[0030] Secondly, embodiments of this application also provide a safety protection device for thermal runaway of a vehicle battery.

[0034] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the safety protection device for vehicle battery thermal runaway also includes a new module for: If it is determined that the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the first preset vehicle speed, the state is the first preset state, and there are people inside / outside the vehicle, then control the window to drop by 10%; If it is determined that the vehicle speed is less than the first preset vehicle speed, the state is the first preset state, and there are people inside / outside the vehicle, then control the windows to be fully lowered and all doors to be unlocked. If the vehicle speed data is determined to be the second preset vehicle speed, the status data to be the second preset status, and there are no people inside or outside the vehicle, then control the window to drop by 10%.

[0035] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the safety protection device for vehicle battery thermal runaway also includes a new module for: If it is determined that the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the first preset vehicle speed, the state is the first preset state, and the rainfall value is less than the first preset rainfall value, then control the vehicle window to drop by 10%.

If it is determined that the vehicle speed is less than the first preset vehicle speed, the status data is the first preset status, and the rainfall value is less than or equal to the third preset rainfall value, control the windows to be fully lowered. If the vehicle speed is determined to be the second preset speed, the state is the second preset state, and the rainfall value is less than or equal to the fourth preset rainfall value, then control the window to drop by 10%. If the vehicle speed is determined to be the second preset speed, the state is the second preset state, and the rainfall value is greater than or equal to the second preset rainfall value, then the window is controlled to drop by 10%.

[0036] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the safety protection device for vehicle battery thermal runaway also includes a new module for: An alarm signal is generated and sent to the vehicle controller, so that the vehicle controller activates the warning device based on the alarm signal and sends warning information, wherein the warning information includes sound warning, video warning, signal warning and / or text warning.

[0037] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the determining and obtaining module 10 is used for: Obtain the current gas concentration, gas change rate, and battery temperature rise rate inside the vehicle; Based on the gas concentration inside the vehicle, the rate of change of the gas inside the vehicle, and the rate of temperature rise of the battery, it is determined whether the vehicle is experiencing a thermal runaway event; If the gas concentration inside the vehicle is greater than the preset gas concentration, the gas change rate inside the vehicle is greater than the preset gas change rate, and the battery temperature rise rate is greater than the preset temperature rise rate, then it is determined that a thermal runaway event has occurred in the current vehicle.
