[0026] With the increasing demand of users for capacity and power density, battery stacking in parallel has become a key means to improve the capacity of energy storage systems. In a stacked energy storage system, each battery pack is an independent individual, and each battery management system is configured. In order to save the power consumption of each battery management system, a switch module is designed when designing the battery management system. In the traditional design, when multiple battery management systems need to be turned on or turned off, the keys of each battery management system need to be pressed in turn. In this way, the process of each startup and shutdown is very cumbersome, and the user experience is poor.

[0027] In view of this, the present application proposes a new stacked energy storage system, which can realize the function of one-key control of multiple battery management systems to start or stop.

[0028] In order to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, the following will be illustrated by specific embodiments.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the stacked energy storage system provided by the present application is shown. Among them, the stacked energy storage system refers to the connection between multiple battery packs 101 in the energy storage system in parallel.

[0030] Among them, the stacked energy storage system 10 can include:

[0031] Multiple battery packs 101( Figure 1 N battery packs 101 are shown, and in actual application, N can be a positive integer greater than or equal to 2), a plurality of battery management systems 102 corresponding to the plurality of battery packs 101, and a switch module K.

[0032] Among them, each battery management system 102 can include:

[0033] The anode of the first diode D1 is connected with the positive electrode of the corresponding battery pack 101, and the cathode is connected with the power utilization system 1022 and the first end of the switch module K through the auxiliary circuit 1021.

[0034] The auxiliary circuit 1021 is used to turn on the power utilization system 1022 when the switch module K is closed, and turn off the power utilization system 1022 when the switch module K is disconnected.

[0035] The anode of the second diode D2 is connected with the second end of the switch module K, and the cathode is connected with the negative electrode of the corresponding battery pack 101.

[0036] In some embodiments of the present application, as Figure 1 shown, the negative electrode of the battery pack 101 can be grounded. The first end of the power utilization system 1022 is connected with the auxiliary circuit 1021, and the second end can be grounded.

[0037] In the embodiments of the present application, by closing or opening the switch module K, the power supply systems 1022 of multiple battery management systems 102 can be controlled at the same time, realizing the function of one-key control of multiple battery management systems 102 to start or stop.

[0038] In some embodiments of the present application, when the switch module K is turned on, each battery management system 102 forms a drive loop with the corresponding battery pack 101 and the switch module K, so that the auxiliary circuit 1021 turns on the power supply system 1022. At this time, the battery pack 101 can supply power to the power supply system 1022, and the entire battery management system 102 can operate normally.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present application, when the switch module K is turned off, each auxiliary circuit 1021 is disconnected from the drive loop through the first diode D1 of the battery management system 102 and the pull-up of the corresponding battery pack 101, so that the auxiliary circuit 1021 turns off the power supply system 1022. At this time, the battery management system 102 has no power supply circuit, the power supply system 1022 does not work, and the battery management system 102 is in a shutdown state.

[0040] It can be understood that multiple battery packs 101 are used together, and each battery pack 101 is an independent individual. If there is no first diode D1 and second diode D2, because there is a voltage gap between multiple battery packs 101, the positive electrodes of multiple battery packs 101 are connected together through the auxiliary circuit 1021 of the battery management system 102, and the negative electrodes are short-circuited together. At this time, there will be mutual charging and discharging between different battery packs 101, so that the auxiliary circuit 1021 has a drive loop, and then the power supply system 1022 of the battery management system 102 is powered on, and the battery management system 102 is activated. Therefore, through the first diode D1 and the second diode D2, the situation that the battery management system is turned on due to mutual charging and discharging between different battery packs under the condition that the switch module K is turned off can be avoided, and the reliability of multiple battery management systems being turned off can be ensured.

[0041] The specific structure of the auxiliary circuit can be selected according to actual conditions.

[0042] In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 2 The auxiliary circuit can include a bias circuit and a switching device connected to the bias circuit.

[0043] The bias circuit can be used to provide a working voltage for the switching device.

[0044] The switching device Q can be used to turn on or turn off the power supply system.

[0045] The specific structure of the bias circuit can be selected according to actual conditions.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present application, the auxiliary circuit can include a first resistor R1 and a second resistor R2, and a switching device Q. That is, the biasing circuit can include the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2.

[0047] A first end of the first resistor R1 is connected to a first end of the switching device Q, and a second end of the first resistor R1 is connected to a first end of the second resistor R2 and a second end of the switching device Q, respectively.

[0048] Correspondingly, a first end of the second resistor R2 can be connected to the second end of the switching device Q, and a second end of the second resistor R2 can be connected to the switching module K.

[0049] Thus, the biasing circuit can achieve voltage division and provide a suitable and safe operating voltage for the switching device.

[0050] It should be noted that the first resistor R1 can be one resistor or a plurality of resistors connected in series. Similarly, the second resistor R2 can be one resistor or a plurality of resistors connected in series. The present application does not limit this.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 The above switching device Q can be a positive-negative-positive (PNP) transistor Q1, the first end of the switching device Q is the emitter of the PNP transistor, and the second end of the switching device Q is the base of the PNP transistor.

[0052] In combination Figure 3 When the switching module K is open, the auxiliary circuit 1021 composed of the PNP transistor Q1, the first resistor R1, and the second resistor R2 is pulled up by the first diode D1 and the battery pack 101, so that the PNP transistor Q1 is turned off, and the battery management system 102 is in a shutdown state. When the switching module K is closed, the current passes through the auxiliary circuit 1021 composed of the PNP transistor Q1, the first resistor R1, and the second resistor R2 from the positive pole of the battery pack 101, the first diode D1, the PNP transistor Q1, the second resistor R2, the switching module K, the second diode D2, and returns to the negative pole of the battery pack 101, forming a driving loop. At this time, the PNP transistor Q1 is turned on, the use system 1022 can operate normally, and the battery management system 102 realizes one-key start-up.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, the switch device Q can also be a Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET, MOS) tube, the first end of the switch device Q is the source of the MOS tube, and the second end of the switch device Q is the gate of the MOS tube.

[0054] Of course, the auxiliary circuit can also include other peripheral circuit devices. Moreover, the switch device Q is not limited to the above-mentioned various types of transistors, and the bias circuit is not limited to the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2. In other embodiments, devices with similar functions can also be used to realize the function of the auxiliary circuit. The present application does not limit this.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present application, the switch module K can include a switch seat, a key, and a switch triggering module arranged on the switch seat. The key is used to trigger the switch triggering module, so that the switch module K is closed or opened. In turn, the power-on or shutdown of multiple battery management systems can be triggered by the key.

[0056] In other embodiments, the switch module K can also be a touch switch, a sliding switch, or a rotary switch, and the present application does not limit this.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present application, the power consumption systems 102 of the various battery management systems 102 can be connected to each other through bus bars.

[0058] In some embodiments of the present application, each battery pack 101 can include one single battery or multiple single batteries connected in series. The number of single batteries can be selected according to the power consumption demand, and the present application does not limit this.

[0059] As shown in FIG. 1, the present application also provides a light storage device 1, which includes the above-mentioned stacked energy storage system 10. Figure 4 In this way, through the stacked battery packs 101, the light storage device 1 can improve the battery capacity and meet the increasing demand of users for capacity and power density. Through the switch module K of the stacked energy storage system 10, the function of one-key control of multiple battery management systems 102 can be realized.

[0060] In some embodiments of the present application, the light storage device 1 can also include a photovoltaic panel, a heat dissipation device, a display assembly, and other devices, and the present application does not limit this.
