[0031] This application provides a vehicle power grid system 100. The vehicle power grid system 100 of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Without conflict, the features in the following embodiments and implementation manners can be combined with each other.

[0032] Referring Figure 1 As shown, this application provides a vehicle power grid system 100, including a first power receiving device 120, a second power receiving device 120, a voltage conversion circuit 130, and a voltage coordinator 140. Among them, the rated voltage of the first power receiving device 120 is different from that of the second power receiving device 120. The voltage conversion circuit 130 is used to convert the voltage of the vehicle's battery into a voltage that can be used to supply power to the first power receiving device 120. The voltage conversion circuit 130 includes a first output terminal 131 and a second output terminal 132, and the second output terminal 132 is electrically connected to the ground terminal 150. The first power receiving device 120 is electrically connected between the first output terminal 131 and the ground terminal 150, and the voltage conversion circuit 130 supplies power to the first power receiving device 120. The voltage coordinator 140 includes a first connection terminal 141, a second connection terminal 142, and a third connection terminal 143. The voltage coordinator 140 is electrically connected to the voltage conversion circuit 130 through the first connection terminal 141. The second power receiving device 120 is electrically connected between the second connection terminal 142 and the ground terminal 150, and the voltage coordinator 140 supplies power to the second power receiving device 120 through the second connection terminal 142. The second power receiving device 120 is connected between the second connection terminal 142 and the third connection terminal 143. The third connection terminal 143 is electrically connected to the ground terminal 150.

[0033] The voltage output by the voltage conversion circuit 130 is converted into a voltage that matches the rated voltage of the second power receiving device 120 through the voltage coordinator 140. Herein, matching the rated voltage of the second power receiving device 120 means being equal to or slightly greater than the rated voltage of the second power receiving device 120. The second power receiving device 120 is powered by the voltage coordinator 140, thereby enabling the rapid installation of the first power receiving device 120 and the second power receiving device 120 with different rated voltages on the same vehicle power grid system 100, reducing the steps of improving and developing the voltage of the first power receiving device 120 or the second power receiving device 120, reducing the development cycle and development cost, and thus reducing the costs of the first power receiving device 120, the second power receiving device 120, and the vehicle power grid system 100. At the same time, there is no need to set up multiple voltage conversion circuits to supply power to the first power receiving device 120 and the second power receiving device 120 respectively, which is beneficial to the conversion efficiency of the voltage conversion circuit, and reduces the overall weight and manufacturing cost of the vehicle power grid system 100.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 As shown in the optional embodiment, the vehicle power grid system 100 further includes a first battery 160. The first battery 160 is connected in parallel with the second power receiving device 120, that is, both ends of the first battery 160 are respectively connected to both ends of the second power receiving device 120. Herein, the voltage output by the second connection end 142 of the voltage coordinator 140 is at least greater than the rated voltage of the first battery 160 to charge the first battery 160. The first battery 160 powers the second power receiving device 120.

[0035] Through the above settings, the second power receiving device 120 is powered jointly by the first battery 160 and the voltage coordinator 140, which can provide the constant power required by the second power receiving device 120; and can satisfy the operation of the second power receiving device 120 with various rated powers; the output of the first battery 160 is stable and reliable, which can effectively reduce the traffic safety accidents caused by the failure of the vehicle power grid system 100, and is applicable to the situation where the second power receiving device 120 is related to traffic safety or is the controller of the main device, etc.; when the voltage conversion circuit 130 or the voltage coordinator 140 fails, the normal operation of the second power receiving device 120 can be maintained.

[0036] Reference Figure 3As shown, in an alternative embodiment, the vehicle electrical network system 100 further includes a second battery 170. The second battery 170 is connected in series with the first battery 160. The positive terminal of the second battery 170 is electrically connected to the first output terminal 131 of the voltage conversion circuit 130, and the negative terminal of the second battery 170 is connected to the positive terminal of the first battery 160. The second connection terminal 142 of the voltage coordinator is electrically connected between the positive terminal of the first battery 160 and the negative terminal of the second battery 170. The second battery 170 and the first battery 160 are commonly connected in parallel to the first power receiving device 120, and the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 jointly supply power to the first power receiving device 120.

[0037] With the above arrangement, the first battery 160, the second battery 170 and the voltage conversion circuit 130 jointly supply power to the first power receiving device 120, which can provide the constant power required by the first power receiving device 120; and can meet the operation of the first power receiving device 120 with various rated powers; the outputs of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 are stable and reliable, which can effectively reduce the driving safety accidents caused by the failure of the vehicle electrical network system 100, and is applicable to the situation where the first power receiving device 120 is related to driving safety or is the controller of the main device, etc.; when the voltage conversion circuit 130 or the voltage coordinator 140 fails, the normal operation of the first power receiving device 120 can be maintained.

[0038] In an alternative embodiment, the voltage coordinator 140 includes a voltage detection module and a voltage control module electrically connected to the voltage detection module. The voltage detection module respectively detects the output voltage of the first battery 160 and the output voltage of the second battery 170 through the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142. Specifically, the third connection terminal 143 is electrically connected to the ground terminal 150, and the voltage value measured by the voltage detection module through the second connection terminal 142, that is, the difference between the second connection terminal 142 and the third connection terminal 143 is the output voltage of the first battery 160; the difference between the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142 is the output voltage of the second battery 170. The voltage control module is used to receive the output voltage of the first battery 160 and the output voltage of the second battery 170, and control the output voltage of the second connection terminal 142 according to the output voltage of the first battery 160 and the output voltage of the second battery 170, so that the first battery 160 and / or the second battery 170 are charged or discharged.

[0039] By means of the voltage detection module, the output voltages of the first storage battery 160 and the second storage battery 170 are obtained, and the working states of the first storage battery 160 and the second storage battery 170 can be obtained in a timely manner, including the normal working, power shortage and overcharging states of the first storage battery 160 and the second storage battery 170, and can be adjusted in a timely manner through the voltage control module to balance the power of the first storage battery 160 and the second storage battery 170, and reduce the risk that the power shortage of the first storage battery 160 and the second storage battery 170 affects the service life of the first storage battery 160 and the second storage battery 170; or the risk that the overcharging of the first storage battery 160 and the second storage battery 170 causes overvoltage of the first power receiving device 120 or the second power receiving device 120, which is beneficial to the use safety of the vehicle power grid system 100.

[0040] When the voltage detection module detects that the output voltage of the first storage battery 160 is greater than the output voltage of the second storage battery 170 through the first connection end 141 and the second connection end 142, the voltage control module controls the output voltage of the second connection end 142 to be between the output voltage of the first storage battery 160 and the output voltage of the second storage battery 170. At this time, the voltage across the first storage battery 160 is less than the output voltage of the first storage battery 160, causing the first storage battery 160 to discharge to the second power receiving device 120; at the same time, the voltage across the second storage battery 170 is greater than the output voltage of the second storage battery 170, causing the voltage conversion circuit 130 to charge the second storage battery 170 through the first output end 131; thus coordinating the power between the first storage battery 160 and the second storage battery 170. For example, when the output voltage of the first storage battery 160 is 14V and the output voltage of the second storage battery 170 is 13V, the voltage of the first output end 131 is 27V, and the output voltage of the second connection end 142 is 13.5V. At this time, the voltage between the second connection end 142 and the third connection end 143 is less than the output voltage of the first storage battery 160, and the first storage battery 160 discharges; the voltage between the first connection end 141 and the second connection end 142 is 13.5V, which is greater than the output voltage of the second storage battery 170, and the second storage battery 170 is charged.

[0041] When the voltage detection module detects that the output voltage of the first battery 160 is equal to the output voltage of the second battery 170 through the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142, the voltage control module controls the output voltage of the second connection terminal 142 to be consistent with the rated voltage of the first battery 160 and the rated voltage of the second battery 170, and the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 have no charge or discharge; or the voltage conversion circuit 130 charges the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 simultaneously, that is, the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 are in the same state. The voltage conversion circuit 130 supplies power to the first power receiving device 120, and the voltage coordinator 140 supplies power to the second power receiving device 120. For example, when the output voltage of the first battery 160 is 13.5V and the output voltage of the second battery 170 is 13.5V, the voltage of the first output terminal 131 is 27V, and the output voltage of the second connection terminal 142 is 13.5V. At this time, the voltage between the second connection terminal 142 and the third connection terminal 143 is equal to the output voltage of the first battery 160; the voltage between the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142 is equal to the output voltage of the second battery 170. At this time, if the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 are required to supply power to the first power receiving device 120 and the second power receiving device 120, the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 discharge simultaneously, the voltage conversion circuit 130 charges the first battery 160 and the second battery 170, and the voltage coordinator 140 charges the second battery 170. At this time, if the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 do not need to supply power to the first power receiving device 120 and the second power receiving device 120, then the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 are idle simultaneously.

[0042] When the voltage detection module detects that the output voltage of the first battery 160 is less than that of the second battery 170 through the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142, the voltage control module controls the output voltage of the second connection terminal 142 to be between the output voltage of the first battery 160 and the output voltage of the second battery 170, and greater than half of the voltage output by the first output terminal 131 of the voltage conversion circuit 130. At this time, the voltage across the first battery 160 is greater than the output voltage of the first battery 160, enabling the voltage coordinator 140 to charge the first battery 160 through the second connection terminal 142; the voltage across the second battery 170 is greater than the output voltage of the second battery 170, causing the second battery 170 to discharge to the first battery 160. In some embodiments, when the output voltage of the first battery 160 is 13V and the output voltage of the second battery 170 is 14V, the voltage of the first output terminal 131 is 27V, and the output voltage of the second connection terminal 142 is 13.7V. At this time, the voltage between the second connection terminal 142 and the third connection terminal 143 is greater than the output voltage of the first battery 160, and the first battery 160 is charged; the voltage between the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142 is 13.3V, which is less than the output voltage of the second battery 170, and the second battery 170 discharges.

[0043] During the use of the vehicle power grid system 100, the power of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 is coordinated according to the above three situations, so that the power of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 is balanced, reducing the risk that the loss of power of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 affects the service life of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170; or the overcharging of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 causes the risk of overvoltage in the first power receiving device 120 or the second power receiving device 120, which is beneficial to the use safety of the vehicle power grid system 100.

[0044] In an alternative embodiment, the voltage output by the second connection terminal 142 of the voltage coordinator 140 changes with the voltage output by the first output terminal 131 of the voltage conversion circuit 130, and the voltage output by the second connection terminal 142 of the voltage coordinator 140 is at least half of the voltage output by the first output terminal 131 of the voltage conversion circuit 130.

[0045] In some embodiments, the voltage output from the second connection terminal 142 of the voltage coordinator 140 is half of the voltage output from the first output terminal 131 of the voltage conversion circuit 130. The voltage between the second connection terminal 142 and the first connection terminal 141 is equal to the voltage between the second connection terminal 142 and the first output terminal 131, that is, the voltage across the first battery 160 is equal to the voltage across the second battery 170. As the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 are used, the output voltages of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 will decrease. When the output voltage of the first battery 160 is less than the voltage between the second connection terminal 142 and the first connection terminal 141, the first battery 160 can be charged at any time through the voltage coordinator 140. Similarly, when the output voltage of the second battery 170 is less than the voltage between the second connection terminal 142 and the first output terminal 131, the second battery 170 can be charged at any time through the voltage conversion circuit, avoiding the reduction of the service life of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 due to discharging with insufficient power.

[0046] In other embodiments, when the output voltage of the first battery 160 is greater than the output voltage of the second battery 170, or when the output voltage of the first battery 160 is equal to the output voltage of the second battery 170, the voltage output from the second connection terminal 142 of the voltage coordinator 140 is half of the voltage output from the first output terminal 131 of the voltage conversion circuit 130, that is, the voltage across the first battery 160 is equal to the voltage across the second battery 170. When the output voltage of the first battery 160 is less than the output voltage of the second battery 170, the voltage output from the second connection terminal 142 of the voltage coordinator 140 is greater than half of the voltage output from the first output terminal 131 of the voltage conversion circuit 130, and at the same time, the voltage output from the second connection terminal 142 of the voltage coordinator 140 is less than the output voltage of the second battery 170. In the vehicle power grid system 100, the first battery 160 supplies power to the second power receiving device 120; the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 jointly supply power to the first power receiving device 120. Therefore, the power consumption speed of the first battery 160 is greater than that of the second battery 170. Through the above settings, while discharging the second battery 170, the first battery 160 can be quickly charged, avoiding the reduction of the service life of the first battery 160 due to discharging with insufficient power.

[0047] In an alternative embodiment, after the voltage coordinator 140 is powered on, the voltage detection module continuously detects the output voltage of the first battery 160 and the output voltage of the second battery 170 through the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142. Specifically, after the vehicle power grid system 100 is powered on, the voltage of the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142 can be continuously detected by the voltage coordinator 140 for 10 to 30 seconds, and the output voltage of the first battery 160 and the output voltage of the second battery 170 can be obtained according to the average value obtained from the continuous detection.

[0048] Through the above settings, each time the vehicle power grid system 100 is powered on, by detecting the output voltage of the first battery 160 and the output voltage of the second battery 170, it is possible to timely detect the output voltage conditions and power consumption conditions of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170, determine the health status of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170, and reduce the risk that the loss of power of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 affects the service life of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170; or the risk that overcharging of the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 causes overvoltage in the first power receiving device 120 or the second power receiving device 120, enabling the first battery 160 and the second battery 170 to stably supply power to the first power receiving device 120 and the second power receiving device 120, which is beneficial to maintaining the stable operation of the first power receiving device 120 and the second power receiving device 120.

[0049] In an alternative embodiment, the voltage detection module periodically detects the output voltage of the first battery 160 and the output voltage of the second battery 170 through the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142. Specifically, after the vehicle power grid system 100 is powered on, the voltage of the first connection terminal 141 and the second connection terminal 142 can be detected by the voltage coordinator 140 every set interval duration.
