Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of charging pile testing equipment, and particularly relates to a charging pile tester integrating AC and DC. Background Art
[0002] Electric vehicles and charging piles conduct millions of interaction activities every day. In these charging activities, a large number of charging failures occur, and even charging accidents may happen. Therefore, it has become a very important task to carry out charging compatibility tests on charging piles and electric vehicles. In the current existing technologies, the tests of AC charging piles and DC charging piles are carried out separately, that is, the test of a DC charging pile and the test of an AC charging pile are two different devices. Generally speaking, a charging station often includes two types of charging piles, namely DC charging piles and AC charging piles. If tests are to be carried out, two different charging pile testers need to be equipped. This results in a large variety of equipment, which is not convenient to carry and work with, and also increases the procurement cost. As the scale of charging station construction is getting larger and larger, the pressure for testing and inspection of AC and DC charging piles is also increasing. In this case, if two types of charging pile testers are still equipped, it will bring various inconveniences in procurement, management, and use.
[0003] For example, the patent application document with the Chinese invention patent application number CN202210761608.0 discloses a test system for an AC charging pile, including: a first interface simulator, a second interface simulator, and a centralized control device. Among them, the first interface simulator is connected to the interface of the target vehicle and is used to respond to a first instruction, where the first instruction is used to adjust the resistance value of a first resistor in the first interface simulator;
[0004] The second interface simulator is connected to the interface of the AC charging pile and is used to respond to a second instruction, where the second instruction is used to adjust the resistance value of a second resistor in the second interface simulator;
[0005] The centralized control device is connected to the target vehicle and the AC charging pile and is used to collect target data according to the first instruction and the second instruction. The target data at least includes the charging current data of the target vehicle and the output current data of the AC charging pile, and at least based on the target data, the AC charging pile is tested.
[0006] The above-mentioned existing technology only supports the test of AC charging piles, that is, there are the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0007] Based on the problems existing in the prior art, the utility model provides a charging pile tester integrating AC and DC. Summary of the Utility Model
