[0053] In the field of weighing technology, electronic weighing instruments are responsible for collecting signals from weighing sensors and performing data processing and display. Depending on the application scenario, electronic weighing instruments choose different power supply methods, which are generally divided into external AC power supply, external DC power supply, and internal battery power supply. For vehicle-mounted weighing, the vehicle-mounted weighing instrument needs to complete the real-time monitoring of the vehicle cargo weight and the real-time positioning of the vehicle location information, and upload it to the server via 4G wireless communication. It is mainly powered by the vehicle's DC power supply. If the external power supply is accidentally disconnected, the weight data and location information will be lost, and the vehicle will be out of contact. Therefore, vehicle-mounted weighing instruments generally have external power supply and internal battery power supply.

[0054] However, the conventional internal battery power supply will automatically power the on-board weighing instrument when the on-board weighing instrument is not in working state, because the external power supply is not connected to the on-board weighing instrument at this time, causing power loss and other problems.

[0055] Based on this, the present application proposes a power management device and an electronic device, the power management device comprising: the power management device comprising: an external power supply circuit, the input end of the external power supply circuit is connected to an external power supply, the external power supply circuit is used to convert the voltage of the external power supply to output a first voltage; a battery; a charging management circuit, one end of the charging management circuit is connected to the output end of the external power supply circuit, the other end of the charging management circuit is connected to the battery, the charging management circuit is used to charge the battery through the first voltage; a power supply management circuit, one end of the power supply management circuit is connected to the battery, the power supply management circuit is used to convert the voltage of the battery The output voltage is converted to output a second voltage; a power selection circuit, the input end of the power selection circuit is respectively connected to the output end of the external power supply circuit and the output end of the power supply management circuit, the output end of the power selection circuit is connected to the weighing instrument, and the power selection circuit is used to select the first voltage or the second voltage as the output voltage to power the weighing instrument; a microprocessor, the first end of the microprocessor is connected to the detection end of the external power supply circuit, the second end of the microprocessor is connected to the controlled end of the power supply management circuit, the microprocessor is used to detect the first voltage, and output an enable signal according to the first voltage to control the conduction of the power supply management circuit. The power management device of the present application realizes the automatic switching between the external power supply and the battery power supply of the weighing instrument, improves the reliability of the power supply of the weighing instrument, avoids the problem of data loss and disconnection of the weighing instrument caused by accidental disconnection of the external power supply, and at the same time, the microprocessor is used to control the battery power supply, which solves the problem of battery power loss when the weighing instrument is not working.

[0056] The present application embodiment provides a power management device, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a power management device provided in one embodiment of the present application, wherein the power management device is used to supply power to a weighing instrument, and includes:

[0057] An external power supply circuit 10, wherein an input end of the external power supply circuit 10 is connected to an external power supply, and the external power supply circuit 10 is used to convert a voltage of the external power supply to output a first voltage;

[0058] Battery 20;

[0059] a charging management circuit 30, one end of which is connected to the output end of the external power supply circuit 10, and the other end of which is connected to the battery 20, and the charging management circuit 30 is used to charge the battery 20 through the first voltage;

[0060] a power supply management circuit 40, one end of which is connected to the battery 20, and the power supply management circuit 40 is used to convert the output voltage of the battery 20 to output a second voltage;

[0061] A power selection circuit 50, wherein the input end of the power selection circuit 50 is respectively connected to the output end of the external power supply circuit 10 and the output end of the power supply management circuit 40, and the output end of the power selection circuit 50 is connected to the weighing instrument. The power selection circuit 50 is used to select the first voltage or the second voltage as the output voltage to power the weighing instrument;

[0062] A microprocessor 60, wherein a first end of the microprocessor 60 is connected to a detection end of the external power supply circuit 10, and a second end of the microprocessor 60 is connected to a controlled end of the power supply management circuit 40. The microprocessor 60 is used to detect the first voltage and output an enable signal according to the first voltage to control the power supply management circuit 40 to be turned on.

[0063] In this embodiment, the power management device is used to power a weighing instrument, which is a vehicle-mounted weighing instrument. The power management device has an external power supply function and an internal battery power supply function, wherein the external power supply is the main power supply mode and the battery power supply is the backup power supply mode. When the weighing instrument needs to work, the power management device converts the connected external power supply into a power supply with a voltage required by the weighing instrument, that is, a first voltage, to power the weighing instrument, wherein the external power supply can be a DC power supply of the vehicle. While powering the weighing instrument, the first voltage can also charge the battery inside the power management device to keep the battery in a fully charged state. When the external power supply fails and cannot power the weighing instrument, the power management device automatically switches to battery power supply to ensure that the weighing instrument can continue to operate, thereby improving the reliability of power supply.

[0064] The power management device of this embodiment includes an external power supply circuit 10, a battery 20, a charging management circuit 30, a power supply management circuit 40, a power supply selection circuit 50 and a microprocessor 60. The input end of the external power supply circuit 10 is connected to an external power supply, and the external power supply is converted into a first voltage. At the same time, the first voltage output by the external power supply circuit 10 also charges the battery 20. It can be understood that the battery 20 itself can store electricity. When the battery 20 is fully charged, the external power supply circuit 10 does not charge the battery 20. The charging management circuit 30 is connected between the external power supply circuit 10 and the battery 20. The function of the charging management circuit 30 is to protect the charging process of the battery, and to ensure the safety and reliability of charging by limiting the charging current. The input end of the power supply management circuit 40 is connected to the battery 20, which is used to convert the voltage output by the battery 20 to obtain the voltage required by the weighing instrument, that is, the voltage provided by the second voltage. It is easy to understand that the first voltage and the second voltage are essentially the same, both of which are voltages required for the weighing instrument to work, but the sources of the two are different. The input end of the power selection circuit 50 is connected to the first voltage and the second voltage respectively. Under normal circumstances, the first voltage and the second voltage are connected to the power selection circuit 50 at the same time. At this time, the power selection circuit 50 automatically selects the first voltage as the output voltage through circuit design to power the weighing instrument. When a fault occurs, the first voltage will be disconnected from the power selection circuit 50. At this time, the power selection circuit 50 automatically switches to the second voltage as the output voltage to power the weighing instrument. The microprocessor 60 is connected to the external power supply circuit 10 and the power supply management circuit 40 respectively. When the weighing instrument needs to work, the external power supply is connected to the external power supply circuit 10 and outputs the first voltage. After detecting the first voltage, the microprocessor 60 outputs an enable signal to the power supply management circuit 40 to turn on the power supply management circuit 40 and output the second voltage. When the weighing instrument does not need power supply, the microprocessor 60 cannot detect the first voltage and will not output an enable signal. The power supply management circuit 40 is cut off, and the power of the battery 20 will not be lost to the outside. The microprocessor 60 controls the output of the battery 20 so that the battery 20 only powers the weighing instrument when the weighing instrument needs power and the external power supply is abnormal.

[0065] The power management device of this embodiment converts the voltage of the external power supply through the external power supply circuit 10 to obtain a first voltage for powering the weighing instrument and charging the battery 20; the charging management circuit 30 is used to manage the charging process of the battery to ensure the safety and reliability of charging; the power supply management circuit 40 is used to convert the voltage output by the battery 20 into a second voltage to power the weighing instrument; the power selection circuit 50 is used to select the first voltage or the second voltage as the output voltage to power the weighing instrument. When the first voltage is normally connected, the first voltage is selected as the output voltage. When the first voltage is accidentally disconnected, the second voltage is automatically selected as the output voltage to ensure the reliability of power supply. The microprocessor 60 is used to turn on the power supply management circuit 40 according to the first voltage. When the weighing instrument does not need to work, the microprocessor 60 controls the power supply management circuit 40 to cut off to avoid the battery 20 from supplying power to the outside and causing power loss. The power management device of this embodiment realizes the automatic switching between the external power supply and the battery power supply of the weighing instrument, improves the reliability of the power supply of the weighing instrument, avoids the problem of data loss and loss of connection of the weighing instrument caused by the accidental disconnection of the external power supply, and solves the problem of battery power loss when the weighing instrument is not working.

[0066] Reference Figure 2 In some feasible embodiments, the third end of the microprocessor 60 is connected to the detection end of the power supply management circuit 40, and the microprocessor 60 is also used to detect the power level of the battery 20 through the power supply management circuit 40, and to send an alarm signal when the power level is lower than a preset power level.

[0067] In this embodiment, the microprocessor 60 also detects the power level of the battery 20 through the power management circuit 40. When the power level of the battery 20 is lower than the preset power value, the microprocessor 60 sends an alarm signal. The specific method can be to connect a buzzer, etc. to inform relevant personnel that the power level is insufficient, so that relevant personnel can take countermeasures in time.

[0068] As an example, the preset power level may be 30%, 22%, 15%, etc. The preset power level may be set according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose any limitation on this.

[0069] In some feasible embodiments, when the weighing instrument needs to be started, if the external power supply circuit 10 outputs the first voltage, the microprocessor 60 outputs the enable signal to turn on the power supply management circuit 40 and output the second voltage, and the power supply selection circuit 50 selects the first voltage as the output voltage;

[0070] If the first voltage is cut off after being output, the power selection circuit 50 selects the second voltage as the output voltage.

[0071] In this embodiment, when the weighing instrument needs to be started, the external power supply is connected to the external power supply circuit 10, and the external power supply circuit 10 outputs the first voltage. The microprocessor 60 outputs an enable signal according to the first voltage, so that the power supply management circuit 40 is turned on and outputs the second voltage. At this time, the power supply selection circuit 50 uses the first voltage as the output voltage to power the weighing instrument. On this basis, if the external power supply fails and the first voltage is accidentally cut off, since the microprocessor 60 has already output the enable signal, the power supply management circuit 40 is still in the on state at this time, and the second voltage is output normally. The power supply selection circuit 50 selects the second voltage as the output voltage to power the weighing instrument. It should be added that if the external power supply has failed when the weighing instrument needs to be started, at this time, the microprocessor 60 does not detect the first voltage, and will not output the enable signal, the power supply management circuit 40 is cut off, and the weighing instrument cannot be started. Therefore, in this case, the relevant personnel can know in advance that the external power supply has failed and needs to be repaired, which further improves reliability.

[0072] In some feasible embodiments, when the weighing instrument does not need to be started, the external power supply circuit 10 is cut off from the external power supply, and the power supply management circuit 40 is cut off.

[0073] In this embodiment, when the weighing instrument does not need to be started, the external power supply is not connected to the external power supply circuit 10, the external power supply circuit 10 does not output the first voltage, the microprocessor 60 does not detect the first voltage, does not output the enable signal, and the power supply management circuit 40 is cut off. Since the power supply management circuit 40 is cut off, the power stored in the battery 20 will not be output to the outside. Conventional battery power supply does not manage the power supply. In this case, if the power stored in the battery 20 is output to the outside, power loss will be caused.

When the first voltage is normally connected, the first voltage is selected as the output voltage. When the first voltage is accidentally disconnected, the second voltage is automatically selected as the output voltage, ensuring the reliability of power supply. The microprocessor is used to turn on the power management circuit according to the first voltage. When the weighing instrument does not need to work, the microprocessor controls the power management circuit to be cut off to avoid the battery from supplying power to the outside and causing power loss. The power management device of this embodiment mostly uses components such as resistors, capacitors, diodes and switching tubes, and realizes automatic switching between external power supply and battery power supply of the weighing instrument on the basis of controlling costs, thereby improving the reliability of the power supply of the weighing instrument and avoiding the data loss and loss of connection of the weighing instrument caused by accidental disconnection of the external power supply.
