Description

[0002] Nowadays, electric vehicles have become an indispensable means of transport when people travel daily.

[0003] The battery repeatedly charges and discharges during use, and as the number of uses and time increases, the electric vehicle battery will have aging problems, especially its capacity will be reduced. The reduction of capacity will greatly affect the driving range of the electric vehicle. At this time, it is necessary to replace the battery to ensure the working condition of the electric vehicle. Therefore, the capacity detection of the battery has become a necessary link.

[0004] The existing battery detection technology usually uses a load with constant resistance to discharge the fully charged battery for detection, but it needs manual real-time monitoring of the working state of the discharge detection instrument, and because the discharge resistance is constant, the decrease of the discharge current caused by the decrease of the battery voltage during discharge cannot guarantee the constant current discharge of the battery. Since the standard for determining whether the battery is normal or not is the discharge time under constant current discharge, this detection method will produce a large error, thus greatly reducing the accuracy of the detection data. In addition, the traditional detection equipment also needs to manually disassemble the battery pack before detecting the single battery, and also needs to provide additional working power, which makes the detection process very inconvenient. In addition, the operator needs to adjust the discharge current size and pay attention to whether the discharge is completed at any time during detection, and turn off the instrument in time when the discharge is completed, otherwise it will cause the battery to be over-discharged and damaged, and finally the operator needs to calculate the discharge time data and other work, which reduces the working efficiency of the operator and greatly reduces the practicability.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0025] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the passive automatic battery tester disclosed herein includes a housing body 1. An ammeter 2, a voltmeter 3, a selection button 6, a display 4, a controller switch 5, a timer 7, a load resistor 8, a ceramic column 9, and a fan 11 are fixedly connected to the outside of the housing body 1. The load resistor 8 is made of constantan wire and wound around the ceramic column 9. The selection button 6 has three buttons: a voltage selection button, a current selection button, and a confirmation button. The operating voltage and current of the tester are selected by pressing the voltage and current selection buttons, and the instrument starts working by pressing the confirmation button. The display 4 shows the currently set and real-time discharge voltage and current values. The operator controls the automatic battery tester to turn on and off using the controller switch 5. The fan 11 dissipates heat from the battery tester to ensure its normal operation.

[0026] like Figures 1-2As shown, in the present disclosure, the surface of the shell body 1 is also fixedly embedded with an air switch 10, one end of which is connected with the current controller 12 and the voltage converter 18 through the wire 16, and the other end is fixedly connected with a positive connection wire 21.1, and the other negative connection wire 21.2 is introduced into the instrument interior through the hole on the back of the shell body 1 and is connected with the input end of the current controller 12 and the voltage converter 18 through the wire 16, and one end of the two positive and negative connection wires 21 is fixedly connected with the crocodile clamp 20 respectively.

[0027] Thus, according to the sequence of the circuit from the positive to the negative, the positive connection wire 21.1 enters the instrument interior through a protective air switch 10, is first connected with the current controller 12, then a hole is punched on the back of the shell 1, the wire 16 is introduced through the hole and connected with the load resistor 8, then returns to the instrument interior and is connected with the MOS tube 26 on the core circuit board 17 through the wire 16, then is connected with the main terminal of the shunt 19 through the wire 16, then passes through the current controller 12, then is connected with the negative connection wire 21.2 through the hole on the shell body 1, and constitutes a discharge detection loop. The staff connects the positive and negative poles of the measured battery through the crocodile clamp 20 and carries out detection.

[0028] As Figures 2-5As shown, in the present disclosure, the inside of the shell body 1 is fixedly provided with a current controller 12, a current regulating potentiometer 13, a shaft coupling 14, a motor 15, a wire 16, a core circuit board 17, a voltage converter 18 and a shunt 19. The current controller 12 is connected with the air switch 10 through the wire 16. One end of the motor 15 is connected with the motor driving module 24 on the core circuit board 17 through the wire 16, and the other end is connected with one end of the current regulating potentiometer 13 through the shaft coupling 14. The other end of the current regulating potentiometer 13 is connected with the current controller 12 through the wire 16. The output end of the voltage converter 18 is connected with the core circuit board 17 through the wire 16, and the input end is connected with the air switch 10 and the negative connection line 21.2 through the wire 16. The main terminal of the shunt 19 is connected between the current controller 12 and the MOS tube on the core circuit board 17 through the wire 16. The auxiliary terminal of the shunt 19 is connected with the current detection module 22 on the core circuit board 17 through the wire 16. A plurality of wires 16 are led out from the core circuit board 17 to each instrument and controller switch on the front of the instrument to display voltage, current and other related data and open and close the core controller 28. The core circuit board 17 is integrated with the current detection module 22, the voltage detection and comparison module 23, the motor driving module 24, the timer control module 25, the MOS tube 26, the buzzer 27, the core controller 28 and the power module 29. Thus, the voltage is converted to 12V by the voltage converter 18 to supply power to each module inside the instrument. The current detection is performed by the current detection module 22, and the feedback is given to the core controller 28. The core controller 28 controls the motor 15 to adjust the current regulating potentiometer 13 and further controls the current controller 12 in the PWM output duty cycle of the discharge detection loop. The equivalent load resistance value changes with the measured battery voltage, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the constant current. The core controller 28 displays the current setting and real-time discharge voltage and current value through the display 4. At the same time of starting discharge, the core controller 28 sends a pulse signal to the timer control module 25 to control the timer 7 to start timing. The timer 7 has a power-off protection function to prevent accidental power-off. The voltage detection and comparison module 23 continuously works. When the measured battery voltage is lower than the rated undervoltage value, the core controller 28 controls the MOS tube 26 to cut off the discharge current, so as to automatically stop discharge and avoid causing the measured battery to be damaged due to over-discharge. When the rated undervoltage value is reached, the core controller 28 sends a signal while cutting off the discharge current, and at the same time, the timer 7 stops timing, the buzzer 27 works and emits an alarm sound to prompt the staff that the discharge is completed.

In addition, operating personnel needs to pay attention to discharge whether end at any time during detection, and instrument is closed in time when discharge ends, otherwise will lead to battery overdischarge and cause power loss damage, finally still need to calculate discharge time data etc. work, therefore this greatly reduces the accuracy of detection data, operating personnel needs real-time supervision and reduces the working efficiency of operating personnel greatly reduces practicability.
