The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, but in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present invention may also have other implementations.

[0050] Embodiment 1

[0051] The first embodiment of the utility model provides a battery pack, which solves the problem in the prior art that a power pack and a battery pack cannot be connected in parallel with power, resulting in poor user experience.

[0052] The first embodiment of the present invention provides a battery pack 10, such as Figure 2 As shown, the battery pack 10 includes: a control module 105, a first switch module 103, an output port 110 and a first parallel port 104;

[0053] One end of the first switch module 103 is connected to the positive electrode B+ of the battery pack 10 and the output port 110 respectively, the other end of the first switch module 103 is connected to the first parallel port 104, and the control module 105 is connected to the first switch module 103;

[0054] When the battery pack 10 is in working state and the first parallel port 104 is connected to the power pack 20 , the control module 105 controls the first switch module 103 to be in the disconnected state.

[0055] Among them, the first parallel port 104 is used to connect with the power pack 20 to realize the parallel connection of the battery pack 10 and the power pack 20; the output port 110 is used to output power, and can output the power of the battery pack 10 and / or the power pack 20; the first switch module 103 is connected between the output port 110 and the first parallel port 104. When the battery pack 10 is in working state and connected to the power pack 20, the control module 105 controls the first switch module 103 to be in a disconnected state, so that the battery pack 10 is parallel with the power pack 20 when working, and then communicates with the power pack 20. When the power pack 20 meets the parallel condition, the first switch module 103 is turned on to realize the battery pack 10 and the power pack 20 output power together.

[0056] The technical effect of the technical solution provided in the first embodiment is: by setting a first switch module in the battery pack, the power output circuit of the battery pack is separated from the parallel circuit of the power pack; when the battery pack is in working state and needs to be paralleled, the first switch module is controlled to be turned off, so that the battery pack can be paralleled with the power pack when in working state; when the power pack meets the parallel conditions, the first switch module is controlled to be turned on, thereby realizing hot swapping of the battery pack and the power pack, facilitating users to use the battery pack for powering operations and improving user experience.

[0057] The following embodiments may be used to connect the power output circuit inside the battery pack 10 and the parallel circuit of the power pack:

[0058] The battery pack 10 includes a first battery module 101 and a second switch module 102. The positive electrode B+ of the first battery module 101 is the positive electrode B+ of the battery pack 10. The second switch module 102 is connected between the positive electrode B+ of the first battery module 101 and the output port 110. The second switch module 102 is also connected to the control module 105. The negative electrode B- of the first battery module 101 is connected to the first parallel port 104.

[0059] The control module 105 controls the second switch module 102 to be turned on, and when it detects that the first parallel port 104 is connected to the power pack 20, controls the first switch module 103 to be turned off; when the power pack 20 meets the parallel condition, controls the first switch module 103 to be turned on.

[0060] Among them, the first battery module 101 is used to store electrical energy and energy supply in the battery pack 10, the second switch module 102 is used to control the first battery module 101 to output electrical energy and stop outputting electrical energy, and the second switch module 102 is connected to the control module 105; the control module 105 is used to control the on and off of the first switch module 102 and the second switch module 103, and the on and off state of the battery pack 10 is controlled by controlling the second switch module 102, and the parallel state of the power pack 20 and the battery pack 10 is controlled by controlling the first switch module 103. In this embodiment, the control module 105 controls the powered parallel process of the power pack 20 and the battery pack 10 as follows: when the control module 105 controls the second switch module 102 to be turned on, and detects that the first parallel port 104 is connected to the power pack 20, the first switch module 103 is controlled to be disconnected to ensure circuit safety. The control module 105 continues to communicate with the power pack 20 until it is detected that the power pack 20 meets the parallel condition. The parallel condition can be that the voltage difference between the voltage of the battery pack 10 and the voltage of the power pack 20 is within a preset range. The control module 105 controls the first switch module 103 to be turned on, and the power pack 20 and the battery pack 10 jointly output electrical energy.

[0061] The advantage of this embodiment is that the control module can ensure that when the power-up pack is connected to the battery pack but the parallel conditions are not met, the first switch module is controlled to be disconnected, thereby avoiding parallel connection of the battery pack and the power-up pack when the parallel conditions are not met, reducing the risks in the battery pack parallel connection process.

[0062] Embodiment 2

[0063] The second embodiment of the present invention provides a battery pack 10 , which realizes different functions by setting a connection relationship between an inverter 106 and a first switch module 103 and a second switch module 102 .

[0064] The technical solution provided in the second embodiment of the present utility model is based on the technical solution provided in the first embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure, as the first embodiment of the connection relationship between the inverter 106 and the first switch module 103 and the second switch module 102, the battery pack 10 further includes:

[0065] An inverter 106, the inverter 106 is connected between the second switch module 102 and the output port 110;

[0066] The inverter 106 is used to transform the voltage output by the first battery module 101 and superimpose it with the voltage output by the power pack 20 for output; or, the inverter 106 is used to transform the voltage input to the battery pack 10 to charge the first battery module 101.

[0067] The inverter 106 is an electric energy converter for current conversion. When energy needs to be released from the first battery module 101, the inverter 106 converts the DC voltage output by the first battery module 101 into DC or AC, and superimposes it with the voltage output by the power pack 20 so as to supply it to the external load, thereby realizing the discharge operation of the battery pack 10. When energy needs to be stored in the first battery module 101, the inverter 106 converts the external input AC voltage into a DC voltage suitable for the first battery module 101, thereby realizing the charging operation of the battery pack 10.

[0068] The advantages of this embodiment 1 are: the inverter can realize bidirectional energy conversion of the battery pack, and can perform both discharge and charge operations. The inverter can convert the voltage output by the battery pack into the required voltage of the load. The battery pack output port superimposes the voltage output by the inverter with the voltage output by the power pack, and provides it to the external load to meet the external load's demand for electrical energy, thereby maintaining the stability and reliability of power supply.

[0069] As a second embodiment of the connection relationship between the inverter 106 and the first switch module 103 and the second switch module 102, Figure 5 As shown, the battery pack 10 also includes:

[0070] An inverter 106, one end of the inverter 106 is respectively connected to one end of the first switch module 103 and one end of the second switch module 102, and the other end of the inverter 106 is connected to the output port 110;

[0071] The inverter 106 is used to transform the voltage output by the first battery module 101 and the power pack 20 to discharge the first battery module 101 and the power pack 20; or, the inverter 106 is used to transform the voltage input to the first battery module 101 and the power pack 20 to charge the first battery module 101 and the power pack 20.

[0072] The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the first battery module 101 of the battery pack 10 and the power pack 20 share an inverter 106. When energy needs to be released, the inverter 106 transforms the voltage output by the first battery module 101 and the power pack 20 so that the battery pack 10 and the power pack 20 can discharge. When energy needs to be stored in the battery pack 10, the inverter 106 transforms the voltage input to the first battery module 101 and the power pack 20 to meet the charging requirements of the battery pack 10 and the power pack 20.

[0073] The advantages of the second embodiment are: since the battery pack and the power pack share one inverter, the number of components and space occupied by the power pack can be reduced, which facilitates the miniaturization of the power pack, and since all battery modules share one inverter, the performance and operating characteristics between the battery pack and the power pack are more consistent, reducing the imbalance problem caused by differences between battery modules and improving the stability and reliability of the entire system. In addition, the circuit structures of the battery pack and the power pack are different. The parallel technology makes the power pack have fewer inverters than the battery pack, and the main control board of the power pack is relatively simpler than the main control board of the battery pack, and the cost is lower.

[0074] Embodiment 3

[0075] A third embodiment of the present invention provides a battery pack parallel power supply device 30, which is a power supply device composed of a battery pack 10 and a power pack 20 connected in parallel.

[0076] The technical solution provided in the third embodiment of the present utility model is based on the technical solutions provided in the first and second embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, a battery pack parallel power supply device 30 includes the battery pack 10 provided in the first and second embodiments, and the first parallel port 104 of the battery pack 10 is connected to the power pack 20 .

[0077] The technical effect of the technical solution provided in the third embodiment is that by reasonably configuring the battery pack and the power pack, flexible and reliable large-power output can be achieved, stable power supply support can be provided for various power equipment, and the use of the battery pack is increased.

[0078] As an implementation method, the number of the power pack 20 is one, such as Figure 7 As shown, the power-up pack 20 includes:

[0079] A second battery module 201;

[0080] A third switch module 202, a first end of the third switch module 202 is connected to the positive electrode of the second battery module 201;

[0081] A fourth switch module 203, a first end of the fourth switch module 203 is connected to the positive electrode of the second battery module 201;

[0082] The second parallel port 204 has a positive electrode interface connected to the second end of the third switch module 202 and the second end of the fourth switch module 203 , and a negative electrode interface connected to the negative electrode of the second battery module 201 .

[0083] Among them, the second battery module 201 is used to store energy and provide power, and can be charged or discharged as needed. The third switch module 202 is used to control the direction of current flow and the working state of the second battery module 201. The fourth switch module 203 is used to control the working state of the power pack 20 and the battery pack 10 when they are connected in parallel. The second parallel port serves as the output interface of the power pack 20, which is used to connect the battery pack 10 to provide power support. The positive interface of the second parallel port 204 is connected to the positive interface of the first parallel port 104, and the negative interface of the second parallel port 204 is connected to the negative interface of the first parallel port 104.

[0084] The working process of this embodiment is as follows: when the power pack 20 is connected to the battery pack 10 through the second parallel port 204, the second switch module 103 of the battery pack 10 and the fourth switch module 203 of the power pack 20 are configured to be in the disconnected state. At this time, the third switch module 202 can be in the on state or in the off state. When the power pack 20 meets the parallel condition, the second switch module 103 of the battery pack 10 and the fourth switch module 203 of the power pack 20 are configured to be in the on state, and the power pack 20 and the battery pack 10 complete the parallel connection and output electrical energy.

[0085] The advantage of this embodiment is that through the cooperation between the third switch module and the fourth switch module, coordinated work between the battery pack and the power pack is achieved, the power efficiency and reliability of the system are improved, and it is suitable for various application scenarios that require reliable power support.

[0086] Further, such as Figure 8 As shown, the second end of the third switch module 202 is also connected to the MPPT module 205 , and the MPPT module 205 is used to charge the second battery module 201 .

[0087] The MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) module is a power converter whose main function is to optimize the power output of the solar panel to ensure the maximum power output under different lighting conditions. The MPPT module 205 is used to charge the second battery module 201 through the third switch module 202.

[0088] The advantages of this embodiment are: the MPPT module ensures the maximum conversion efficiency of solar energy by real-time monitoring and adjusting the working point of the solar cell panel. At the same time, the third switch module can be in the on state during the parallel operation, so that the MPPT module can charge the second battery module at any time.

[0089] Embodiment 4

[0090] A fourth embodiment of the present invention provides a battery pack parallel power supply device 30, which is a power supply device composed of a battery pack 10 and a plurality of power packs 20 connected in parallel.

[0091] The technical solution provided in the fourth embodiment of the present utility model is based on the technical solutions provided in the first to third embodiments, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the battery pack parallel power supply device 30 includes the battery pack 10 provided in Example 1 and Example 2 and the power pack 20 provided in Example 3.

Each power pack 20 includes a second parallel port and a third parallel port. The second parallel port 204 of the first power pack 21 is connected to the first parallel port 104. Starting from the second power pack 22, the power packs 2N are connected in parallel step by step in a manner that the second parallel port 204 of the second power pack 22 is connected to the third parallel port 206 of the first power pack 21.

[0092] The difference between the fourth embodiment and the third embodiment is that there are multiple power packs 20, which are auxiliary components in the power supply device and are used to increase the power output capacity. By cascading multiple power packs 20 to the battery pack 10, long-term power supply is achieved. Each power pack 20 includes a second parallel port and a third parallel port. The second parallel port is used to connect to the parallel port of the previous power pack 20 or the battery pack 10 to extend the parallel power supply. The third parallel port is used to connect to the parallel port of the next power pack 20 to extend the parallel power supply link.

[0093] The technical effect of this embodiment is that by connecting multiple power packs in parallel, the power supply is expanded and enhanced. The step-by-step parallel connection method is adopted to ensure the continuity and stability of the power output, increase the scalability and flexibility of the system, and the number of power packs can be increased or decreased at any time according to actual needs to meet the power needs in different scenarios.

[0094] As an implementation method, Fig.10 As shown, the power pack 20 also includes:

[0095] A second battery module 201, wherein the negative electrode of the second battery module 201 is connected to the negative electrode interface of the second parallel port 204 and the negative electrode interface of the third parallel port 206 respectively;

[0096] A third switch module 202, wherein a first end of the third switch module 202 is connected to the positive electrode of the second battery module, and a second end of the third switch module 202 is connected to the positive electrode interface of the second parallel port 204 and the positive electrode interface of the third parallel port 206;

[0097] The fourth switch module 203 has a first end connected to the positive electrode of the second battery module, and a second end connected to the positive electrode interface of the second parallel port 204 and the positive electrode interface of the third parallel port 206 .

[0098] In this embodiment, the second battery module 201, the third switch module 202 and the fourth switch module 203 are the same as those in the above embodiment, and are not described in detail here.

[0099] As an implementation of the structure of the power pack 20, Fig.11 As shown, the second end of the third switch module 202 is also connected to the MPPT module 205 , and the MPPT module 205 is used to charge the second battery module 201 .

[0100] Among them, the function of the MPPT module 205 is the same as the function of the MPPT module 205 in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0101] As an implementation method of controlling the parallel connection process, when a battery pack 10 is connected in parallel with multiple power packs 20, the parallel connection process of the power packs and the battery pack is as follows: the control module 105 is used to obtain the voltage of each power pack 20, obtain the parallel connection sequence of the power packs 20 according to the voltage of each power pack 20, and control the power packs 20 and the battery pack 10 to be connected in parallel according to the parallel connection sequence.

[0102] Among them, the battery pack 10 and the power pack 20 communicate using the CAN protocol. When paralleling, the power pack 20 waits for the CAN synchronization data frame of the battery pack 10 after the address is successfully allocated. When the battery pack 10 detects that the number of power packs 20 is greater than or equal to 2, it broadcasts the synchronization data frame. After receiving the synchronization data frame, the power pack 20 broadcasts the voltage, capacity and other information of its own battery. After the battery pack 10 collects the information of all the power packs 20, it obtains the parallel order of the power packs according to the principle of giving priority to the power pack with the highest voltage, and sends a control instruction to the power pack 20. The power pack with the highest voltage is connected in parallel according to the parallel order, so that it forms a parallel state with the battery pack 10, until the voltage of the power pack is not the highest voltage, and then the parallel power pack is replaced.

[0103] The advantages of this embodiment are: the logical control in this embodiment enables the battery pack to automatically detect and determine the parallel order of the power packs, thereby realizing an automated parallel process. According to the voltage of the power packs, the battery pack can preferentially discharge the high-voltage power packs to achieve optimization of charging and discharging. By dynamically adjusting the parallel connection, the stability and reliability of the system during operation are ensured. This embodiment is suitable for different numbers of power packs and can dynamically adjust the parallel order according to actual conditions. It has strong adaptability and flexibility.
