Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to an energy storage and converter device, and more particularly to an intelligent energy storage and converter device. Background Technology

[0002] An energy storage converter is a device in an electrochemical energy storage system that connects the battery system to the power grid to provide continuous power. When the energy storage converter is operating in voltage source mode and connected to the grid, it can still operate and supply power uninterruptedly when the grid power supply fails. However, when the failed grid power supply is restored or another backup power supply is connected and supplies power, the voltage, frequency, and phase are often inconsistent with the current voltage, frequency, and phase of the operating energy storage converter, which can cause the connection and power supply system to fail.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design an intelligent energy storage and converter device that can provide stable power supply during power outage recovery and prevent power system paralysis. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to propose an intelligent energy storage converter that improves the stability of the power supply system during the power outage and power restoration process.

[0005] This application is implemented as follows: The intelligent energy storage and converter device includes a battery pack and a bidirectional converter module connected via a DC bus, as well as a protection circuit and a control circuit. The DC output terminal of the battery pack is connected to the DC input terminal of the bidirectional converter module. The output terminal of the bidirectional converter module is an AC output port, which is connected to the power supply bus and then to the load circuit. The power supply bus is also connected to the main power supply. The battery pack and the bidirectional converter module constitute a bidirectional converter power path. The DC output terminal of the protection circuit is connected to the DC input terminal of the bidirectional converter module via the DC bus. The protection circuit also has one DC input terminal and one DC output terminal. The control circuit is connected to the main power supply. The control circuit is connected to the protection circuit, the battery pack, and the bidirectional converter module via the control bus to form a control communication path.

[0006] Among them, the DC input terminal of the protection circuit is connected to the electronic control switch after passing through the protection circuit, and then connected to the bidirectional converter module after passing through the DC bus. The output terminal of the bidirectional converter module is output to the power supply bus, forming the second DC power supply converter path.

[0007] The DC input terminal of the protection circuit is connected to the battery pack via the DC output terminal after passing through the protection circuit, thus forming a DC power transfer path.

[0008] The battery pack includes a first battery pack and a second battery pack connected in parallel. The DC output terminals of the first battery pack and the second battery pack are connected to the DC input terminal of the bidirectional converter module via a DC bus after being connected to an electronic control switch.

[0009] The battery pack includes a first battery pack and a second battery pack connected in parallel. The DC output terminals of the first battery pack and the second battery pack are connected to the DC input terminals of the first bidirectional converter module and the second bidirectional converter module, respectively. The two bidirectional converter modules are connected in parallel to the power supply bus. An electronic control switch is installed on the power supply bus between the two bidirectional converter modules. Another electronic control switch is connected in the connection line between the first battery pack and the first bidirectional converter module and the second battery pack and the second bidirectional converter module.

[0010] By implementing the above technical solution, this application utilizes the technical characteristic of bidirectional converter modules that can still operate and supply power without interruption when encountering grid power failure during grid-connected operation in voltage source mode. By controlling the electronic control switch to realize system structure changes, a multi-power seamless switching AC-DC-AC power supply structure is constructed. When the grid power failure is repaired and power supply is restored or the backup power supply is available for access, controlled switching seamless conversion is realized.

[0021] Example: Figure 1-2As shown, the intelligent energy storage and converter device includes a battery pack and a bidirectional converter module connected via a DC bus, as well as a protection circuit and a control circuit. The DC output terminal of the battery pack is connected to the DC input terminal of the bidirectional converter module. The output terminal of the bidirectional converter module is an AC output port, which is connected to the power supply bus and then to the load circuit. The power supply bus is also connected to the main power supply. The battery pack and the bidirectional converter module constitute a bidirectional converter power path. The DC output terminal of the protection circuit is connected to the DC input terminal of the bidirectional converter module via the DC bus. The protection circuit also has one DC input terminal and another DC output terminal. The control circuit is connected to the main power supply. The control circuit is connected to the protection circuit, the battery pack, and the bidirectional converter module via the control bus to form a control communication path.

[0022] Among them, the DC input terminal of the protection circuit is connected to the electronic control switch after passing through the protection circuit, and then connected to the bidirectional converter module after passing through the DC bus. The output terminal of the bidirectional converter module is output to the power supply bus, forming the second DC power supply converter path.

[0023] The DC input terminal of the protection circuit is connected to the battery pack via the DC output terminal after passing through the protection circuit, thus forming a DC power transfer path.

[0024] The battery pack, bidirectional converter module, protection circuit, and control circuit in this application are all existing technologies. The protection circuit is used for overcurrent protection, and the control circuit is used to control the operation of other components and electronic switches, as well as to monitor the status of components. The circuits of these components are not the inventive point of this application and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the battery pack includes a first battery pack and a second battery pack connected in parallel. The DC output terminals of the first battery pack and the second battery pack are connected to the DC input terminal of the bidirectional converter module via a DC bus after being connected to an electronic control switch.

[0026] Furthermore, the control circuit is connected to the electronic switch circuit. The control circuit can control the opening and closing of the electronic switch, thereby controlling...

[0027] In this configuration, the main power supply continuously supplies power to the load, while at least one electronically controlled switch in the first and second battery banks is closed. When the main power supply fails, at least one of the first and second battery banks continues to supply power to the load, maintaining a seamless and uninterrupted power supply.

[0028] Furthermore, such as Figure 2As shown, the battery pack includes a first battery pack and a second battery pack connected in parallel. The DC output terminals of the first battery pack and the second battery pack are connected to the DC input terminals of the first bidirectional converter module and the second bidirectional converter module, respectively. The two bidirectional converter modules are connected in parallel to the power supply bus. An electronic control switch is installed on the power supply bus between the two bidirectional converter modules. Another electronic control switch is connected in the connection line between the first battery pack and the first bidirectional converter module and the second battery pack and the second bidirectional converter module. The two electronic control switches are controlled by a control circuit.

[0029] In this configuration, the main power supply continuously supplies power to the load. The electronic control switch between the two bidirectional converter modules is normally closed, while the other electronic control switch can be selectively closed or opened. When the main power supply fails, the electronic control switch between the two bidirectional converter modules is opened, ensuring that at least the second battery pack continues to supply power to the load, maintaining a seamless and uninterrupted power supply. When the second battery pack is nearly fully discharged, the other electronic control switch is closed, allowing the first battery pack to continue supplying power to the load.

[0030] The above technical features constitute the embodiments of this application, which have strong adaptability and implementation effect. Non-essential technical features can be added or removed according to actual needs to meet the needs of different situations.
