[0029] The first current terminal of the fusible three-terminal fuse 11 is connected to the positive terminal B+ of the battery through the temperature protection circuit 14. The temperature protection circuit 14 includes a temperature switch 141, a transistor Q1, resistors R11, R12, and R13, and a MOSFET Q1.

[0030] The input terminal of the second switch is connected to the first current terminal of the three-terminal fuse 11, and the output terminal of the second switch is connected to one end of the temperature switch 141. The other end of the temperature switch 141 is connected to the positive terminal B+ of the battery. The input terminal of the second switch is also connected to the control terminal of the second switch through resistor R13.

In this embodiment, the first switching transistor is transistor Q1, the collector of transistor Q1 is the input terminal of the first switching transistor, the emitter of transistor Q1 is the output terminal of the first switching transistor, and the base of transistor Q1 is the control terminal of the first switching transistor.

[0033] The working principle will be explained in general terms below:

[0034] When the battery management system's overvoltage protection IC is working normally during charging, the control signal output from the overvoltage protection control terminal CHG of the protection IC is at a high level. At this time, the gate of MOSFET Q3 is at a high level, MOSFET Q3 is in the conducting state, the positive terminal of diode D1 is at a low level, the gate of MOSFET Q4 is pulled down to a low level by resistor R4, MOSFET Q4 is in the cut-off state, the fuse control terminal of the three-terminal fuse 11 (also known as F1 in the figure) is at a high level, the three-terminal fuse 11 (also known as F1 in the figure) is not triggered to blow, at the same time, the MCU's GPIO pin outputs a high level, turning on transistor Q1, turning on MOSFET Q2, and the temperature switch is in the normally conducting state, thereby realizing the connection between the positive terminal B+ of the battery and the charging input terminal C+, thus realizing the charging of the battery;

[0035] When the lithium battery is overcharged but has not reached the operating temperature of the temperature switch 141, the control signal output by the overvoltage protection control terminal CHG of the protection IC is low. At this time, the gate of MOSFET Q3 is low, and MOSFET Q3 is in the off state. The positive terminal of diode D12 is pulled up to a high level through resistor R3, and the gate of MOSFET Q4 is also high, and MOSFET Q4 is in the conducting state. The fuse control terminal of the three-terminal fuse 11 (also known as F1 in the figure) is set to a low level through diode D22 and MOSFET Q4. The internal heating wire of the three-terminal fuse 11 (also known as F1 in the figure) is triggered to blow, cutting off the charging circuit from the charging input terminal C+ to the positive terminal B+ of the battery, stopping charging, and realizing overvoltage protection.

[0036] When the fuse control circuit 12 fails and the operating temperature of the temperature switch 141 is reached, the temperature switch opens, cutting off the charging circuit from the charging input terminal C+ to the positive terminal B+ of the battery, stopping charging, and realizing overvoltage protection.

[0037] When the lithium battery does not need to be charged, the MCU's GPIO pin outputs a low level, turning off transistor Q1, cutting off MOSFET Q2, and disconnecting the temperature switch from diode D3, thus disabling the temperature protection circuit 14.

[0038] When the protection IC fails and cannot detect voltage, the overvoltage protection control terminal CHG of the protection IC has no output control signal. At this time, the gate of MOSFET Q3 is pulled down to a low level through resistor R2, and MOSFET Q3 is in the off state. The positive terminal of diode D1 is pulled up to a high level through resistor R3, and the gate of MOSFET Q4 is also at a high level, and MOSFET Q4 is in the conducting state. The fuse control terminal of the three-terminal fuse 11 (also known as F1 in the figure) is set to a low level through diode D22 and MOSFET Q4. The internal heating wire of the three-terminal fuse 11 (also known as F1 in the figure) is triggered to blow, cutting off the charging circuit from the charging input terminal C+ to the positive terminal B+ of the battery, stopping charging, and realizing overvoltage protection.

[0039] The key design feature of this utility model is that it connects a temperature protection circuit in series between the fusible three-terminal fuse and the positive terminal B+ of the battery. This allows for rapid power cut-off when the fuse control circuit fails, cutting off the charging circuit from the charging input terminal C+ to the positive terminal B+ of the battery, stopping charging, and ensuring the reliability and stability of overvoltage protection.

[0040] Secondly, through the failure control circuit, when the protection IC fails and cannot perform voltage detection, the charging circuit from the charging input terminal C+ to the positive terminal B+ of the battery can be cut off in time, stopping the charging and further ensuring the reliability and stability of the overvoltage protection.

[0041] Furthermore, the overall circuit structure is cleverly and reasonably designed to ensure the stability and reliability of the toolbox during use.

[0042] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
