[0038] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] The embodiments of the present application provide a vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit, a negative pressure protection circuit and an electric vehicle to solve the problem that the ground of the existing charging pile will generate a negative voltage on the vehicle-end adhesion detection circuit, and the negative voltage exceeds the voltage resistance range of the ADC sampling chip in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit, causing damage to the ADC sampling chip.

[0040] The original topology of the relay and its related vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit in an electric vehicle can be as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the figure. The figure mainly shows: ADC analog quantity acquisition module, charging pile power supply, relay module, power battery, battery load and other parts. Among them, the relay module includes: main positive relay, main negative relay, pre-charge relay, charging pile power supply positive relay (CHA+ relay in the figure), and charging pile power supply negative relay (CHA- relay in the figure).

[0041] In practical applications, the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit is mainly composed of the voltage sampling circuit of each relay, the ADC analog quantity acquisition module and the controller; the voltage sampling circuit usually samples the resistor voltage division sampling method, and after sampling by the ADC sampling chip of the ADC analog quantity acquisition module, the voltage state of the two ends of the relay contact is compared in the controller to determine whether the relay is stuck.

[0042] by Figure 1 Taking the charging pile as an example, the principle of negative pressure generated by charging at point V1 in the original topology is as follows: when the charging pile power supply does not output voltage, the ADC analog quantity acquisition module normally performs voltage analog quantity acquisition in the relay unclosed mode; when the charging pile power supply outputs high voltage, negative pressure will appear on the acquisition port corresponding to the ACD analog quantity acquisition module.

[0043] It should be noted that the power battery is the power source for driving the power motor. In the present application, it can be considered that the power battery is always present and can provide a stable power supply; the power battery generally has a voltage level of hundreds of volts, which can drive the power motor in the electric vehicle. For the convenience of explanation, this application takes the power battery voltage of 400V as an example. The charging pile power supply can output a voltage equivalent to the power battery of the electric vehicle for charging the power battery. During the charging of the power battery, all relays are in the disconnected state. Specifically, in practice, after completing the insulation test, that is, the adhesion test, the charging pile power positive relay (CHA+ relay in the figure) and the charging pile power negative relay (CHA- relay in the figure) in the electric vehicle can be closed to enter the charging state.

[0044] Taking point V1 as an example, by using battery E1 as a pull-up source, the supply voltage of battery E1 can be 5V, and the voltage collected at V1 is 5V. Due to the precision error of resistors in actual applications, the resistors R3 / R4 cannot be too small, otherwise R4 / (R3+R4) will approach 1 and the disconnection and closing states of the relay cannot be distinguished. The same is true for resistors R1 and R2. When the charging pile power supply outputs the voltage Vout and the charging relay is disconnected, the voltage at V1 is 5V-Vout(R4 / (R1+R2+R3+R4)), and the voltage at I is 5V-Vout((R3+R4) / (R1+R2+R3+R4)). Since R1 cannot be too small, it will cause a negative voltage ranging from tens to hundreds of volts at V1. The negative voltage protection circuit provided in this application only works in this state, and the negative voltage is placed diagonally to the ground to achieve the purpose of protecting the acquisition port of the ADC analog acquisition module.

[0045] The inventor has found that an existing negative voltage protection circuit uses a ground Schottky diode to protect negative voltage, such as Figure 2 As shown, taking point V1 as an example, when a voltage greater than 0V appears, the Schottky diode (D1 in the figure) is reversely cut off and does not affect normal voltage acquisition; when a negative voltage appears, the negative voltage on the acquisition port of the ADC sampling chip is forward-conducted through the Schottky diode and the voltage is clamped, so that the negative voltage of V1 is protected within the range of 0V to the conduction voltage of the Schottky diode; however, in this negative voltage protection method, the conduction voltage drop of the Schottky diode is greatly affected by the current and temperature, and the conduction voltage drop of the Schottky diode may be greater than the negative voltage withstand voltage of the ADC sampling chip, and the negative voltage protection of the ADC sampling chip cannot be achieved within the full temperature range.

[0046] In this regard, based on the above, the negative voltage protection circuit provided in the embodiment of the present application uses MOSFET and Zener diode, which is extremely less affected by temperature and can achieve negative voltage protection for the ADC sampling chip in a wider temperature range. Figure 3 or Figure 4The negative pressure protection circuit can be applied to the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit, including: a negative pressure protection voltage setting unit (101 in the figure) and a negative pressure pull-up unit (102 in the figure) connected to the negative pressure protection voltage setting unit.

[0047] The negative voltage protection voltage setting unit includes a diode (Z2 in the figure), and the negative voltage pull-up unit includes a pull-up switch tube (Q3 in the figure). When the negative voltage of the negative pressure monitoring port corresponding to the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit is greater than the breakdown voltage of the diode, the diode and the pull-up switch tube are both turned on, so that the voltage of the acquisition port corresponding to the ADC analog acquisition module in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit is pulled up to the reference ground.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 3 or Figure 4 As shown, the cathode of the diode serves as the first end of the negative voltage protection voltage setting unit, connected to the negative voltage monitoring port of the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit; the anode of the diode serves as the second end of the negative voltage protection voltage setting unit, connected to the reference ground.

[0049] In practical applications, the specific type of the diode may be a Zener diode; of course, it is not limited thereto, and may also be other existing types of diodes, which are not limited in this application and are within the protection scope of this application.

[0050] In some embodiments, Figure 3 or Figure 4 As shown, the negative voltage pull-up unit may include: a first resistor (R6 in the figure), a second resistor (R5 in the figure), a third resistor (R7 in the figure), a first switch tube (Q1 in the figure), a second switch tube (Q2 in the figure) and a pull-up switch tube.

[0051] The source of the first switch tube is connected to the first end of the negative voltage pull-up unit as the first end of the negative voltage protection voltage setting unit; the gate of the first switch tube is connected to the second end of the negative voltage protection voltage setting unit as the second end of the negative voltage pull-up unit; the drain of the first switch tube is connected to one end of the first resistor, and the other end of the first resistor is respectively connected to one end of the second resistor and the gate of the second switch tube;

[0052] The other end of the second resistor is connected to the source of the second switch tube, and the connection point is used as the third end of the negative voltage pull-up unit and connected to the pull-up source port of the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit;

[0053] The drain of the second switch tube is respectively connected to one end of the third resistor and the gate of the pull-up switch tube, the source of the pull-up switch tube is connected to the reference ground, and the drain of the pull-up switch tube serves as the fourth end of the negative voltage pull-up unit and is connected to the acquisition port corresponding to the ADC analog acquisition module.

[0054] In actual applications, the first switch tube and the pull-up switch tube can be NMOS tubes, and the second switch tube can be PMOS tube; further, the specific type of the two can be MOSDFET; the first resistor, the second resistor and the third resistor mainly function to set the static point voltage for the first switch tube, the pull-up switch tube and the second switch tube to ensure that when the negative pressure of the negative pressure monitoring port corresponding to the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit is greater than the breakdown voltage of the diode, the pull-up switch tube is turned on to pull up the voltage of the acquisition port corresponding to the ADC analog acquisition module in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit to the reference ground.

[0055] The vehicle-side relay adhesion detection circuit may include multiple negative pressure monitoring ports, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 or Figure 5 As shown, the negative pressure detection port can be point A and point B in the figure; taking point A as an example, the main working process of the negative pressure protection circuit is as follows:

[0056] When negative voltage appears between the negative relay of the charging pile power supply in the electric vehicle and the connection point of the charging pile power supply (point I in the figure), the battery supply voltage is 5V, and the input voltage at point I is 5V-Vout((R3+R4) / (R1+R2+R3+R4)). Without the protection of the diode, the GS inter-electrode voltage of the first switch tube will exceed the withstand voltage. Therefore, the diode enters the breakdown mode at this time to protect the GS inter-electrode withstand voltage of the first switch tube. Due to the current limiting effect of the first sampling resistor (R4_1 in the figure), the power demand of the diode is reduced, and the GS inter-electrode voltage of the first switch tube is equal to the breakdown voltage V_Z2 of the diode. At this time, the first switch tube is turned on, and the GS inter-electrode voltage of the second switch tube is: (5V+V_Z2)*R5 / (R5+R6). Through the voltage division of the second resistor R5 and the first resistor R6, this voltage meets the conduction condition of the second switch tube. 5V is applied to the G pole of the pull-up switch tube, so that the pull-up switch tube is turned on to pull the voltage of the acquisition port (V1 in the figure) corresponding to the ADC analog acquisition module in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit to close to the reference ground (HV_GND in the figure). Due to the current limiting effect of the first sampling resistor and the second sampling resistor (R4_2 in the figure), the current that needs to be placed obliquely is extremely small, so the on-resistance requirement of the pull-up switch tube is relatively low. If there is a high requirement for negative voltage, the negative voltage can also be reduced by reducing the on-resistance of the pull-up switch tube.

[0057] Similarly, taking point B as an example, the main working process of the negative pressure protection circuit is as follows:

[0058] When negative voltage appears at the connection point between the positive relay of the charging pile power supply and the charging pile power supply (point E in the figure) in the electric vehicle, the battery supply voltage is 5V, and the input voltage at point E is 5V-Vout((R1+R2) / (R1+R2+R3+R4)). Without the protection of the diode, the GS inter-electrode voltage of the first switch tube will exceed the withstand voltage. Therefore, the diode enters the breakdown mode at this time to protect the GS inter-electrode withstand voltage of the first switch tube. Due to the current limiting effect of the first sampling resistor (R1_1 in the figure), the power demand of the diode is reduced, and the GS inter-electrode voltage of the first switch tube is equal to the breakdown voltage V_Z2 of the diode. At this time, the first switch tube is turned on, and the GS inter-electrode voltage of the second switch tube is: (5V+V_Z2)*R5 / (R5+R6). Through the voltage division of the second resistor R5 and the first resistor R6, this voltage meets the conduction condition of the second switch tube. 5V is applied to the G pole of the pull-up switch tube, so that the pull-up switch tube is turned on to pull the voltage of the acquisition port (V2 in the figure) corresponding to the ADC analog acquisition module in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit to close to the reference ground (HV_GND in the figure). Due to the current limiting effect of the first sampling resistor and the second sampling resistor (R1_2 in the figure), the current that needs to be placed obliquely is extremely small, so the on-resistance requirement for the pull-up switch tube is relatively low. If there is a high requirement for negative voltage, the negative voltage can also be reduced by reducing the on-resistance of the pull-up switch tube.

[0059] In the present application, although the on-resistance of the pull-up switch tube is affected by temperature, compared with directly using a Schottky diode for negative voltage protection, the temperature variation range of the present application is controllable, and calculation can ensure that the ADC negative withstand voltage requirements are met in a wider temperature range.

[0060] When there is no negative voltage between the negative relay of the charging pile power supply in the electric vehicle and the connection point of the charging pile power supply (point I in the figure), that is, when the input voltage at point I is greater than 0V, the diode cannot be turned on, the Vgs of the first switch tube is 0V, the first switch tube is turned off, and then the second switch tube and the pull-up switch tube are turned off. At this time, the corresponding topology can be restored to Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit can perform normal collection and judgment by only using the sampling resistor R1 and the sampling resistor R2 for voltage division.

[0061] It should be noted that Figure 3 The resistors R3_1 and R3_2 in Figure 1 The sampling resistor R3 in the circuit has the following relationship: the sum of the resistance values ​​of the resistors R3_1 and R3_2 is equal to the resistance value of the sampling resistor R3, that is, Figure 3 The resistors R3_1 and R3_2 are Figure 1 The deformation of the sampling resistor R3. Figure 4 The resistors R1_1 and R1_2 in Figure 1The sampling resistor R1 in the circuit has the following relationship: the sum of the resistance values ​​of the resistors R1_1 and R1_2 is equal to the resistance value of the sampling resistor R1, that is, Figure 4 The resistors R1_1 and R1_2 are Figure 1 Deformation of the sampling resistor R1.

[0062] Based on the above principles, the negative pressure protection circuit provided in this embodiment can be applied to the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit. The negative pressure protection circuit may include: a negative pressure protection voltage setting unit and a negative voltage pull-up unit connected to the negative pressure protection voltage setting unit; the negative pressure protection voltage setting unit includes a diode, and the negative pressure pull-up unit includes a pull-up switch tube. When the negative voltage of the negative pressure monitoring port corresponding to the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit is greater than the breakdown voltage of the diode, the diode and the pull-up switch tube are both turned on, so that the voltage of the acquisition port corresponding to the ADC analog quantity acquisition module in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit is pulled up to the reference ground, which solves the problem that the ground of the existing charging pile will generate a negative voltage for the vehicle-end adhesion detection circuit, and the negative voltage exceeds the voltage resistance range of the ADC sampling chip in the BMS, causing damage to the ADC sampling chip.

[0063] It can be understood that the present application scheme can realize negative pressure protection of the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit. When the positive relay of the charging pile power supply or the negative relay of the charging pile power supply in the electric vehicle is disconnected, the conduction characteristics of the MOS MOSFET and the breakdown characteristics of the Zener diode are utilized, and the negative voltage of the charging pile power supply can be discharged through the low on-resistance of the pull-up switch tube, thereby protecting the normal operation of the ADC analog quantity acquisition module in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit from damage; in addition, the negative pressure protection circuit can be triggered automatically without occupying IO control resources; in addition, the current limiting resistor (resistor R2_1 and resistor R2_2 in the figure) can be configured to reduce the power demand of the diode, and the negative pressure amplitude can be controlled, and different negative pressure ranges can be configured according to the voltage resistance requirements of the ADC analog quantity acquisition module in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit.

[0064] It is worth noting that compared with the existing acquisition by using a differential ADC sampling chip with stronger negative pressure tolerance, the application cost of this application is lower.

[0065] On the basis of the above, this application also provides a vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit, see Figure 5 , which can mainly include: a charging pile power supply positive relay voltage sampling unit (201 in the figure), a charging pile power supply negative relay voltage sampling unit (202 in the figure), a pull-up voltage generating unit (203 in the figure), an ADC analog quantity acquisition module and a controller (not shown in the figure).

[0066] The charging pile power supply positive relay voltage sampling unit is connected to the charging pile power supply negative relay voltage sampling unit, and the connection point is connected to the pull-up voltage generating unit.

[0067] The ADC analog quantity acquisition module includes multiple acquisition ports, each of which is respectively connected to the charging pile power supply positive relay voltage sampling unit and the charging pile power supply negative relay voltage sampling unit, and the output end of the ADC analog quantity acquisition module is connected to the controller; the first end of the pull-up voltage generating unit serves as the pull-up source port of the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit;

[0068] A negative pressure protection circuit as described in any of the above embodiments is respectively arranged between the positive relay voltage sampling unit of the charging pile power supply and the sampling port corresponding to the ADC analog quantity acquisition module, and / or between the negative relay voltage sampling unit of the charging pile power supply and the sampling port corresponding to the ADC analog quantity acquisition module.

[0069] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the charging pile power positive relay voltage sampling unit may include: a first sampling resistor (R1_1 in the figure), a second sampling resistor (R1_2 in the figure) and a third sampling resistor (R2 in the figure).

[0070] One end of the first sampling resistor serves as the first end of the charging pile power positive relay voltage sampling unit and is connected to the charging pile power positive relay (CHA+ relay in the figure); the other end of the first sampling resistor is connected to one end of the second sampling resistor, and the connection point serves as the negative pressure monitoring port of a vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit (point B in the figure); the other end of the second sampling resistor is connected to one end of the third sampling resistor, and the connection point serves as the second end of the charging pile power positive relay voltage sampling unit and is connected to the acquisition port corresponding to the ADC analog quantity acquisition module; the other end of the third sampling resistor serves as the third port of the charging pile power positive relay voltage sampling unit and is connected to the first end of the pull-up voltage generating unit.

[0071] It should be noted that setting the number of sampling resistors in the positive relay voltage sampling unit of the charging pile power supply to 3 can more conveniently realize negative pressure monitoring; specifically, Figure 1 Compared with the original topology shown, the resistors in the positive relay voltage sampling unit of the charging pile power supply have the following relationship: R1_1+R1_2=R1, R2=R2.

[0072] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the charging pile power negative relay voltage sampling unit may include: a fourth sampling resistor (R4_1 in the figure), a fifth sampling resistor (R4_2 in the figure) and a sixth sampling resistor (R3 in the figure).

[0073] One end of the fourth sampling resistor serves as the first end of the charging pile power negative relay voltage sampling unit and is connected to the charging pile power negative relay (CHA-relay in the figure); the other end of the fourth sampling resistor is connected to one end of the fifth sampling resistor, and the connection point serves as the negative pressure monitoring port of another vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit (point A in the figure); the other end of the fifth sampling resistor is connected to one end of the sixth sampling resistor, and the connection point serves as the second end of the charging pile power negative relay voltage sampling unit and is connected to the acquisition port corresponding to the ADC analog acquisition module; the other end of the sixth sampling resistor serves as the third port of the charging pile power negative relay voltage sampling unit and is connected to the first end of the pull-up voltage generating unit.

[0074] It should be noted that setting the number of sampling resistors in the negative relay voltage sampling unit of the charging pile power supply to 3 can more conveniently realize negative pressure monitoring; specifically, Figure 1 Compared with the original topology shown, the resistors in the negative relay voltage sampling unit of the charging pile power supply have the following relationship: R3=R3, R4_1+R4_2=R4.

[0075] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the pull-up voltage generating unit may include: a battery (E1 in the figure), the positive electrode of the battery serves as the first end of the pull-up voltage generating unit, and the negative electrode of the battery is connected to the reference ground.

[0076] In practical applications, resistors can be connected in parallel at both ends of the battery based on the actual application situation to meet different usage requirements.

[0077] It should be noted that the controller may be a controller in a BMS, and the adhesion state of the relay may be detected according to the analog signal collected by the ADC analog acquisition module; the ADC analog acquisition module has an ADC sampling chip built in it.

[0078] In this embodiment, a negative pressure protection circuit as described in any of the above embodiments is respectively provided between the charging pile power positive relay voltage sampling unit and the sampling port corresponding to the ADC analog quantity acquisition module in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit, and / or between the charging pile power negative relay voltage sampling unit and the sampling port corresponding to the ADC analog quantity acquisition module. When the charging pile power positive relay and the charging pile power negative relay are closed, the charging pile power supply can generate a negative pressure on the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit. The voltage of the sampling port corresponding to the ADC analog quantity sampling module can be pulled up to a safe voltage range by means of voltage pull-up, thereby realizing the function that the high voltage input of the charging pile power supply does not affect the ADC sampling chip.

[0079] It is worth noting that the control method of the negative pressure protection circuit in the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit provided in the present application is passive control. Through this negative pressure protection circuit, when the charging pile power supply outputs high voltage, the negative voltage of the sampling port corresponding to the ADC analog sampling module is controlled within the withstand voltage range, and is extremely less affected by temperature.

[0080] It should be noted that in addition to detecting the adhesion of the charging pile power positive relay and the charging pile power negative relay, the vehicle-end relay adhesion detection circuit can also use the same detection method to detect the adhesion of other relays in the electric vehicle, such as the main positive relay, pre-charging relay, main negative relay, etc.
