[0060] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0061] The components of the embodiments of the present application generally described and shown in the drawings herein may be arranged and designed in various configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the application claimed for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0062] Hereinafter, the terms "including", "having" and their cognates that can be used in various embodiments of the present application are intended only to indicate specific features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, components or a combination of the foregoing items, and should not be understood as first excluding the existence of one or more other features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, components or a combination of the foregoing items or increasing the possibility of one or more features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, components or a combination of the foregoing items. In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third" and the like are only used to distinguish descriptions and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0063] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical terms and scientific terms) used herein have the same meanings as those generally understood by those skilled in the art to which the various embodiments of the present application belong. The terms (such as those defined in generally used dictionaries) will be interpreted as having the same meanings as the contextual meanings in the relevant technical field and will not be interpreted as having idealized meanings or overly formal meanings unless clearly defined in the various embodiments of the present application.
[0064] In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, some embodiments of the present application are described in detail below. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0065] The dual power switching circuit is described below in conjunction with some specific embodiments.
[0066] Example 1
[0067] Figure 1 A circuit diagram of a dual power switching circuit of Embodiment 1 of the present application is shown. Exemplarily, the dual power switching circuit includes: a first battery pack, a second battery pack, a first switching circuit, a driving motor and a charging circuit.
[0068] Among them, one of the first battery pack and the second battery pack is a main battery pack, and the other is an auxiliary battery pack. In order to facilitate the explanation of the dual power switching circuit of the present application, the first battery pack is taken as the main battery pack and the second battery pack is taken as the auxiliary battery pack. In the present application, the main battery pack is usually a more commonly used battery pack, and the auxiliary battery pack is used as a power supply device when the main battery pack is abnormal (including but not limited to the main battery pack being out of power and insufficient to drive the electric vehicle, the main battery pack being damaged and unable to drive the electric vehicle, etc.).
[0069] Furthermore, the first battery pack and the second battery pack are both coupled to a first switching circuit; the first switching circuit is coupled to a drive motor and is used to control switching between the first battery pack and the second battery pack by manual or automatic switching.
[0070] The charging circuit is coupled to the first battery group and the second battery group, and is used for the first battery group to charge the second battery group. Under the control of the charging circuit, the first battery group can charge the second battery group in real time, or charge the second battery group when the voltage of the second battery group is lower than a preset value, and not charge the second battery group when the second battery group reaches a preset value. In some examples, the charging circuit has a voltage monitoring function, and monitors the voltage of the second battery group. When the voltage of the second battery group is lower than a preset value of 51.5V, the charging circuit controls the first battery group to charge the second battery group. When the voltage of the second battery group is higher than a preset value of 53.6V, the charging circuit controls the first battery group not to charge the second battery group.
[0071] Furthermore, the voltages of the first battery pack and the second battery pack may be the same or different. The voltages of the first battery pack and the second battery pack may be determined according to their applications. For example, the switching circuit of the present application is applied to electric vehicles. The power supply requirements for electric vehicles may vary from region to region. Some regions restrict the use of a power supply with a rated voltage of 48V, some regions restrict the use of a power supply with a rated voltage of 60V, and some regions have no restrictions. Therefore, the voltages of the first battery pack and the second battery pack in the present application need to be set according to the requirements of different regions.
[0072] Preferably, since electric vehicles in most regions use a power supply with a voltage of 48V or 60V, the first battery pack and the second battery pack are usually one with a rated voltage of 48V and one with a rated voltage of 60V, which can meet the requirements of electric vehicles in most regions.
[0073] Furthermore, the first switching circuit is connected to the driving motor through a motor control circuit.
[0074] The embodiment of the present application proposes a dual power switching circuit, which realizes the switching between the first battery pack and the second battery pack through the first battery pack, the second battery pack and the first switching circuit, and can avoid the situation that when the main battery pack is abnormal, the normal operation of the device is affected. Furthermore, the present application sets a charging circuit between the first battery pack and the second battery pack, which can realize the first battery pack to charge the second battery pack in real time or on demand.
[0075] Example 2
[0076] On the basis of Example 1, Figure 1 As shown, the first switching circuit of this embodiment includes a first switch and a second switch. The first switch and the second switch can be two independent switches or single-pole double-throw switches.
[0077] The first battery pack is connected to the motor control circuit via a first switch; the second battery pack is connected to the motor control circuit via a second switch. Figure 1As shown, when the first switching circuit is switched to the first switch, the first battery pack is connected to the drive motor, thereby enabling the first battery pack to be used as a power supply battery pack. When the first switching circuit is switched to the second switch, the second battery pack is connected to the drive motor, thereby enabling the second battery pack to be used as a power supply battery.
[0078] Example 3
[0079] On the basis of Example 1, Figure 2 As shown, the dual power switching circuit also includes a first detection circuit for detecting status information of the first battery pack; one end of the first detection circuit is connected to the first battery pack; and another end of the first detection circuit is connected to the first switching circuit.
[0080] The state information includes at least one or both of current and voltage.
[0081] In this embodiment, the first detection circuit detects the status information of the first battery pack in real time or at a fixed time when in use. If the status information meets the preset condition, the first switching circuit is controlled to switch to connect to the second battery pack so that the second battery pack starts to supply power, that is, when the first detection circuit detects that the status information does not meet the preset condition, the first switch of the first switching circuit is controlled to fluctuate to the second switch, wherein the first switch and the second switch can be relays, MOSFETs, etc. In some examples, the preset condition is set to the voltage of the first battery pack being less than 54V, and when the first detection circuit detects that the voltage of the first battery pack is less than 54V, the first switch of the first switching circuit is controlled to be toggled to the second switch. In some examples, the preset condition is set to the current output by the first battery pack being greater than 14.5A, and the current duration is greater than 1S, and when the first detection circuit detects that the current output by the first battery pack is greater than 14.5A, and the current duration is greater than 1S, the first switch of the first switching circuit is controlled to be toggled to the second switch.
[0082] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first battery pack is connected to the motor control circuit via a first switch; and the second battery pack is connected to the motor control circuit via a second switch.
[0083] In the embodiment of the present application, a first detection circuit is used to detect the status information of the first battery pack, so that automatic control can be achieved.

[0086] In this embodiment, the first detection circuit detects the status information of the first battery pack in real time or periodically when in use, and then sends the detected status information to the MCU microcontroller. The MCU microcontroller generates an output signal based on the received status information, and the first switching circuit controls whether to switch the first battery pack and the second battery pack based on the output signal of the MCU microcontroller.

Typically, under different power supply voltages, the same drive motor requires different motor control circuits to drive. In some examples, the first motor control circuit is powered by a first battery pack, and the second motor control circuit is powered by a second battery pack.
