Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 This utility model provides an embodiment of a charger battery connection anti-misjudgment circuit, including a power input module, a negative electrode control switch module, an output current detection module, a main control MCU module, and a battery voltage detection module. The input interface of the power input module obtains +28V and +12.6V power from the outside. The power input module is signal-connected to the negative electrode control switch module.

The output current detection module is bidirectionally connected to the main control MCU module. The main control MCU module is signal-connected to the negative electrode control switch module. The main control MCU module is bidirectionally connected to the battery voltage detection module.
[0034] Specifically, the power input module obtains +28V and +12.6V power from external sources. After filtering and other processing, it provides a stable and clean power input for the entire charger's battery connection anti-misjudgment circuit, ensuring that each module can operate under a suitable power environment. The power input module also provides operating power to the negative terminal control switch module, ensuring its normal operation under appropriate power conditions. The negative terminal control switch module enables the output current module to detect corresponding current changes. Simultaneously, the negative terminal control switch module is controlled by the main control MCU module, using MOSFET switching elements to control the on / off state of the battery's negative terminal. Furthermore, during charging and discharging, the negative terminal control... The switching module can promptly open or close the battery negative terminal circuit according to the control commands issued by the main control MCU module. The output current detection module can detect the output current during the battery charging and discharging process in real time, then convert the current signal into a LOAD current detection signal and transmit it to the main control MCU module so that the MCU can analyze and judge based on the current situation. At the same time, the main control MCU module will set or calibrate the detection parameters of the output current module. The battery voltage detection module transmits the detected battery voltage signal BAT+ to the main control MCU module for the main control MCU module to judge the battery status. Then, the main control MCU module performs parameter configuration and calibration operations on the battery voltage detection module.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The output current detection module includes a sampling resistor R74, a diode D9, a filter capacitor C41, and a voltage divider resistor R77. The sampling resistor R74 is connected in series in the output circuit. The filter capacitor C41 and the voltage divider resistor R77 form an RC filter circuit. The sampling resistor R74, the filter resistor R77, and the voltage divider capacitor C41 together form the output current detection circuit. The output terminal of the output current detection module outputs a current detection signal LOAD and transmits it to the MCU chip in the main control MCU module. The diode D9 clamps and protects the output current detection signal LOAD to prevent reverse voltage from damaging the pins of the MCU chip.
[0036] Specifically, the sampling resistor R74 converts the output current into a voltage signal, and the voltage drop across it reflects the current magnitude. An RC filter circuit consisting of filter capacitor C41 and voltage divider resistor R77 filters out high-frequency noise and interference, making the voltage signal smoother and more stable, facilitating subsequent measurement and processing. The output current detection signal LOAD allows the main control MCU module to determine the battery's charging / discharging status and whether there are abnormal conditions such as overcurrent based on the current. This allows for appropriate measures, such as adjusting the charging strategy or cutting off the circuit, to prevent overcharging and over-discharging, improving battery life and safety, and avoiding misjudgments caused by abnormal current. Diode D9 ensures the LOAD signal remains within a safe range, enhancing system reliability.

[0038] Specifically, in the power input module, the π-type filter circuit composed of filter capacitor C10 and electrolytic capacitor EC6 can filter out AC noise in the input power supply to ground, making the output voltage more stable and providing a clean DC power supply for subsequent circuits. In the charger circuit, it can make the power supply to the battery more stable, avoiding the impact of power fluctuations on charging effect and battery life. Through voltage divider resistors R116 and R117, the high positive voltage BAT+ of the battery can be divided according to a certain ratio and converted into a voltage range suitable for detection by the main control MCU module. Through the LC filter circuit composed of inductor LF7 and capacitor C17, high-frequency ripple and switching noise in the power supply can be filtered out, improving the stability of the output voltage. Relay RY2 is used to realize power on / off control, redundancy switching or safety protection.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The negative control switch module includes a MOSFET (Q13), a transistor Q8, a resistor R69, a resistor R104, a transistor Q8, and a protection diode D6. The MOSFET (Q13) is the negative control switch. The gate of the MOSFET (Q13) forms a drive circuit through the resistor R69, the resistor R104, and the transistor Q8, and is controlled by the MCU control signal. The protection diode D6 is used to clamp and protect the gate drive signal of the MOSFET (Q13) to prevent the voltage spike generated at the gate of the transistor Q8 from damaging the MOSFET when it is turned off.
[0040] Specifically, MOSFET (Q13) is used as the negative control switch, driven by the MCU control signal, to realize the conduction and cutoff of the battery negative terminal Bat- circuit. Transistor Q8, resistor R69 and R104 are used to drive the gate of MOSFET (Q13), so that MOSFET (Q13) can work normally according to the signal sent by the main control MCU module. The protection diode D6 can effectively prevent the gate-source voltage from exceeding the maximum rated value of MOSFET, avoid gate oxide layer breakdown, and thus extend the life of MOSFET (Q13).
[0041] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The battery voltage detection module includes filter capacitor C59 and filter capacitor C61, which together form a dual-capacitor filter circuit.
[0042] Specifically, the dual-capacitor filter circuit composed of filter capacitors C59 and C61 in the battery voltage detection module can effectively filter out high-frequency interference components in the battery voltage signal, ensuring that the main control MCU module acquires a stable and accurate battery voltage signal.
[0043] Working principle: The battery voltage detection module monitors the battery's positive terminal "BAT+" in real time. When properly connected, the voltage is stable. The output current detection module monitors the "LOAD" signal; a corresponding current is present during charging or discharging. Through the main control MCU module, when "BAT+" is detected as normal and "LOAD" shows current, the battery connection is determined to be normal, and normal charging and discharging control is maintained. If the detected voltage drops, the MCU sends a higher output voltage pulse. If the MCU detects the "LOAD" current signal, the battery is not actually disconnected and remains connected. If no "LOAD" current signal is detected at this time, the battery is truly disconnected, preventing false alarms.
[0044] The dual protection of diode clamping and voltage divider design prevents overvoltage damage to the MCU, improving system reliability. Detecting the battery voltage "BAT+" is the core function of the charger control circuit. By monitoring the positive terminal voltage of the battery in real time and combining it with current detection, the MCU can achieve intelligent charging management. The core control unit of the entire system, the main control MCU module, receives the LOAD signal from the output current detection module and the BAT+ voltage signal from the battery voltage detection module. Based on the set logic algorithm, it judges and controls the charging and discharging state of the battery, and sends control signals to the negative terminal control switch module to adjust the circuit's operating state. The output current detection circuit, composed of sampling resistor R74, filter resistor R77, and voltage divider capacitor C41, converts the output current signal into a voltage signal LOAD and transmits it to the main control MCU module for real-time monitoring of the output current. By using diode D9 and protection diode D6 to clamp and protect the LOAD signal and the MOSFET (Q13) drive signal, reverse voltage breakdown of the circuit can be prevented, enhancing system reliability.
