Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments of this utility model belong to the field of battery testing technology, and more specifically, relate to a testing device for the over-temperature protection unit of a high-speed train battery. Background Technology
[0002] As a crucial energy supply unit for high-speed trains, the safety and reliability of the battery directly impacts the train's operational safety. The battery over-temperature protection unit is a key component ensuring the timely disconnection of power to the battery under abnormal temperatures, preventing overheating that could lead to fires or other safety accidents. Therefore, effectively testing the measurement and control functionality of the over-temperature protection unit is not only essential for ensuring the normal operation of the battery system but also a vital link in ensuring safe train operation. Traditional testing methods have limitations, failing to comprehensively assess the effectiveness of the over-temperature protection unit's temperature measurement and switching control. This can lead to misjudgments or omissions during actual operation, thus affecting the train's safety performance. Therefore, developing a device capable of comprehensively testing the measurement and control functionality of the over-temperature protection unit has significant practical importance and application value.
[0003] Currently, the over-temperature protection unit for high-speed train batteries typically includes two sets of temperature-sensing resistors and a power switch. When the temperature-sensing resistors detect that the battery temperature exceeds a set threshold, the over-temperature protection unit automatically shuts off the power switch to protect the battery. Before use, the measurement and control functionality of this over-temperature protection unit usually needs to be tested. The traditional testing method mainly involves directly disconnecting the temperature-sensing resistors and observing whether the power switch is turned off to check if the switch control triggering is working properly.
[0004] Although the above-mentioned existing technology is simple and easy to implement, it has the following obvious defects and improvements: (1) This method can only detect the triggerability of switch control, but cannot fully evaluate the effectiveness of temperature measurement and control signal issuance of the over-temperature protection unit; (2) Considering the convenience of measurement, for the temperature measurement effectiveness detection method, the effectiveness of temperature measurement performance can be preliminarily judged by measuring the error of the temperature measuring resistance value at room temperature and the consistency error of the two sets of temperature measuring resistance values.

[0048] Working principle of this utility model embodiment:
[0049] S100: First, hold the plug handle 104 and plug the present invention into the plug hole 301 of the battery to ensure that the plug hole 201 and the plug terminal 302 are electrically connected well, thereby completing the docking and connection of the Net1, Net2, Net3, Net4, Net5 and Net6 terminals.
[0050] S200: To start this utility model, first test the resistance values of resistors R1 and R7 at room temperature. Control S1 and S2 to disconnect, control power supply to VCCCtrl1 and VCCCtrl2, then control the resistance values of R2 and R8 to be fixed, and read the feedback parameters of AD1 and AD2, and read the main circuit current values I1 and I2, using the formula:
[0051] R1=R2*VCCCtrl1 / (R2*I1-VCCCtrl1)
[0052] R7=R8*VCCCtrl2 / (R8*I2-VCCCtrl2)
[0053] The resistance values of two temperature measuring resistors R1 and R7 of the battery at room temperature are obtained. The error between the actual value and the theoretical value is compared by the main controller to determine the resistance performance.
[0054] S300: Performs consistency error test on resistors R1 and R7. Under the action of voltage follower, it obtains the input potential of resistors R1 and R7 and prevents the original circuit from being affected. Then, the differential amplifier composed of U2 calculates the difference between the two potentials and outputs the difference value. The consistency error value can be obtained by reading AD3 through the main controller. The closer this value is to 0, the more effective the two resistors are.
[0055] S400: After checking the resistance and consistency error characteristics, the trigger characteristic test can be performed. First, the power is turned off at VCCCtrl1 and VCCCtrl2, and S1 and S2 are closed. Under the parallel action of R1 and R2, R7 and R8, the overall resistance decreases. By controlling and changing R2 and R8, the effect of the resistance change of the temperature sensing resistor after being affected by temperature is simulated. By adjusting the resistance values of R2 and R8, the high temperature resistance value is simulated to observe the switch-off state inside the battery. If it is off, it proves that the trigger characteristic is good.
[0056] In this embodiment of the invention, the resistance of the temperature-sensing resistors at room temperature is measured by a resistance measurement unit, and the difference between the two temperature-sensing resistors is measured by a consistency measurement unit to preliminarily demonstrate the effectiveness of the measurement function. A trigger characteristic detection unit is constructed by connecting resistors in parallel to simulate a high-temperature state and to detect the controllability of the switch inside the battery. This invention can comprehensively evaluate the measurement and control functionality of the over-temperature protection unit inside the battery, and solves the technical defect of the traditional method of directly disconnecting the temperature-sensing resistor for triggerability detection of switch control, which cannot detect the effectiveness of the temperature-sensing resistor and the effectiveness of the control signal, thus ensuring the safe operation of the train.
