Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power electronics and safe charging technology, and in particular to a centralized charging protection device. Background Technology
[0002] In the construction of large-scale projects such as housing construction, bridges, water conservancy and hydropower, and high-speed railways, a large number of precision instruments and equipment are required to ensure the accuracy and smooth completion of the project. These precision instruments and equipment are powered by batteries, which therefore need to be charged. The current charging method involves stacking multiple precision instruments together and using multi-socket power strips for charging. This method not only results in messy charging cables and chaotic on-site management, but also easily leads to accidents such as overheating or even combustion due to overvoltage or overcharging, as well as leakage caused by aging power cords or charger malfunctions.
[0003] Some solutions address the aforementioned issues using centralized charging cabinets, such as the drone lithium battery centralized charging safety management cabinet and charging control method disclosed in patent application publication number CN114793004A. This cabinet includes a cabinet body and a door, and houses a charging management and control module, multiple charging drawers, and lithium batteries. It not only enables unmanned automatic charging and discharging management of multiple battery groups but also provides various protections during the charging process. However, it still has the following two problems:
[0004] (i) It does not have a heat dissipation function. When multiple lithium batteries are charged, a large amount of heat is dissipated, especially in high-temperature environments. If the heat is not dissipated in time, it will affect the service life of the lithium batteries.
[0005] (ii) There is no storage space for backup equipment (such as lithium batteries). When backup equipment is needed, it must be searched for in other storage locations, which reduces efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a centralized charging protection device to solve the problems of environmental overheating and lack of space for storing backup equipment during the charging process.

[0009] In the above solution, by adding a heat dissipation device to the back of the cabinet and connecting the heat dissipation device to the charging layer, the heat generated during the charging process can be dissipated in a timely manner, reducing the impact of overheating of the surrounding environment on the battery. In addition, a storage cabinet is added at the bottom of the cabinet to centrally store spare equipment. When the spare equipment is needed, it can be quickly and conveniently retrieved from the storage cabinet, improving efficiency.

[0027] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other. For ease of description, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" appearing below only indicate that they correspond to the upper, lower, left, and right directions in the accompanying drawings and do not limit the structure.
[0028] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the centralized charging protection device provided in this embodiment includes a cabinet 1, a hierarchical power distribution module 2, a multi-level protection control module 3, a flame-retardant pad 4, a power socket 5, a storage cabinet 6, a heat dissipation device 7, and an input cable 8.
[0029] The cabinet 1 includes a back panel 15, side panels 14 connected to both ends of the back panel 15, and multiple partitions 11 connecting the back panel 15 and the two side panels 14. The multiple partitions 11 divide the cabinet 1 into a device layer 12 and several charging layers 13. The device layer 12 is located at the top.
[0030] The equipment layer 12 includes a hierarchical power distribution module 2 and a multi-level protection control module 3. The hierarchical power distribution module 2 includes a main circuit breaker 21 and multiple branch circuits 22 connected in parallel with the main circuit breaker 21. The power distribution structure of the branch circuits 22 is as follows: maximum single-circuit load current ≤ 16A, line impedance ≤ 0.1Ω, and adjacent circuit spacing ≥ 15mm. The main circuit breaker 21 has a rated current ≥ 63A and integrates leakage current protection (operating current ≤ 30mA). An arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) is connected in parallel to the output terminal of the main circuit breaker 21, using high-frequency sampling (200kHz) to identify characteristic arc waveforms with an arc extinguishing time ≤ 15ms (compliant with UL 1699 standard). An input cable 8 is connected to the main circuit breaker 21. The input cable 8 is connected to the mains power.
[0031] Each charging layer 13 is provided with multiple power sockets 5, and multiple branch circuits 22 are connected to the power sockets 5 one-to-one. The power sockets 5 are mounted on the inner surface of the back panel 15. The power sockets 5 are equipped with a USB-PD / QC3.0 fast charging interface and an XT60 DC interface.
[0032] Each branch circuit 22 is equipped with an air switch 221 for switching the branch circuit 22 on and off, and / or each branch circuit 22 is equipped with a current transformer 222 for switching the branch circuit 22 on and off. The air switch 221 provides electrical interlocking: if the charging interface on the power socket 5 is not fully inserted, the air switch 221 cannot close, and the corresponding charging circuit is disconnected. The current transformer 222 provides thermal interlocking: when the temperature on a branch circuit 22 is >55℃, the power supply to the three adjacent branch circuits 22 is simultaneously cut off.
[0033] As needed, a branch relay 223 for switching the branch circuit 22 on and off is provided on each branch circuit 22. The multi-level protection control module 3 includes an overvoltage protection unit 31, an overcharge protection unit 32, a temperature protection unit 33, and a charging status judgment unit 34.
[0034] The overvoltage protection unit 31 uses an LM393 voltage comparator to monitor the charging voltage on the branch circuit 22 in real time. When the voltage exceeds the set threshold Vmax, it triggers the main circuit breaker 21 or the branch relay 223 on the branch circuit 22 to disconnect the circuit. The overcharge protection unit 32 uses a DS3231 clock chip to realize timed power-off control of the branch relay 223 on the branch circuit 22.
[0035] The overcharge protection unit 32 has a power-off time error of ≤ ±2 minutes / year. The timing control logic of the overcharge protection unit 32 includes: Lithium battery charging mode: 3-stage charging (constant current → constant voltage → trickle charging), total duration T1 = battery capacity (C) / charging current (I) × 1.2 Lead-acid battery charging mode: automatic compensation of float charge voltage, compensation coefficient K = 1 + (T_amb-25) × 0.003.
[0036] The temperature protection unit 33 includes a surface-mount NTC thermistor (accuracy ±1℃) and an infrared temperature sensor, which are connected in parallel with the main circuit breaker 21 and the branch relay (223).
[0037] The charging status judgment unit 34 is configured to: collect the charging current I(t) and battery terminal voltage V(t) in real time, and determine that the battery is fully charged and trigger the tripping of the main circuit breaker 21 when the following conditions are met simultaneously:
[0038] (i) The current drop rate ΔI / Δt ≥ 5% / min, and lasts for 3 minutes;
[0039] (ii) Voltage fluctuation ΔV ≤ ±0.5%, lasting for 5 minutes;
[0040] (iii) The battery temperature gradient dT / dt ≤ 0.2℃ / min, the trip response time ≤ 50ms, and an encrypted log is generated and uploaded to the cloud after tripping.
[0041] Both the upper surface of the partition 11 forming the charging layer 13 and the upper surface of the cabinet 61 are provided with flame-retardant pads 4. The flame-retardant pads 4 are V-0 flame-retardant with an IP67 protection rating. The flame-retardant pads 4 have a three-layer composite structure, including: upper layer: ceramic fiber cloth (thickness 0.5mm, thermal conductivity ≤0.05W / m·K); middle layer: mica board (thickness 1.2mm, breakdown voltage ≥6kV); lower layer: silicone rubber pad (hardness 60±5Shore A). The lower silicone rubber pad rests on the partition 11.
[0042] The back plate 15 is equipped with a heat dissipation device 7. The heat dissipation device 7 consists of four fans with a wind speed of ≥2m / s.
[0043] The storage cabinet 6 is located at the bottom of the cabinet 1. The storage cabinet 6 includes a cabinet body 61 integrally connected to the cabinet 1, a cabinet door 62 connected to the cabinet body 61 via hinges, and a door lock 63 mounted on the cabinet door 62. The door lock 63 is an integrated electromagnetic lock. Spare equipment or tools are stored in the storage cabinet 6.
[0044] This invention effectively improves the battery charging efficiency of instruments and equipment, and reduces safety hazards caused by overcharging, overvoltage, and leakage. It implements a single-circuit, single-charge air switch with overvoltage and leakage protection functions (automatically shutting off the main power switch when the power cable or air switch overheats). The battery then passes through a time-delay, timed overcharge voltage stabilization protection module to the power socket, achieving a stable single-circuit, single-charge environment.
[0045] This utility model features a coupled design of electrical protection (overvoltage / overcurrent / leakage) and physical protection (flame retardant / heat insulation / moisture-proof) with three-level time-sequence control: real-time monitoring → threshold judgment → graded action (power reduction → alarm → power cut-off). It solves problems such as chaotic charging, multiple charging on a single line, heat dissipation defects, and lack of graded protection mechanisms, integrating various charging protection functions.
[0046] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
