Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fire extinguishing for electric vehicles, and in particular to an automatic fire extinguishing system for parking spaces of electric vehicles. [Background technology]
[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy automobile industry, the public's requirements for the safety of lithium-ion batteries are becoming higher and higher. At present, with the increase in sales of new energy vehicles, there are more and more accidents involving lithium-ion batteries. The spontaneous combustion situations that exist in the process of using electric vehicles are also increasing year by year, causing more and more problems for the public. As of 2021, the number of new energy vehicles nationwide was 7.84 million. In 2021 alone, there were nearly 3,000 new energy vehicle fire accidents nationwide. According to the latest data released by the Fire and Rescue Bureau of the Ministry of Emergency Management of China on April 3, 2022, in the first half of 2022, there were a total of 640 fires in new energy vehicles, an increase of 32% over the same period last year, equivalent to an average of seven new energy vehicles having combustion accidents per day.
[0003] At the Beijing Institute of Technology's Automotive Electrification Academic Exchange Forum in July 2021, the Beijing Institute of Technology laboratory classified the vehicle ignition states of new energy vehicles at the time, finding that the rate of ignition in a stationary state was 38.5% and the rate of ignition in a charging state was 27.5%.
[0004] Therefore, how to ensure the safety of battery boxes is the key to whether the new energy industry can be smoothly promoted in the future. Safety accidents caused by spontaneous combustion while parked will increase linearly, and due to a lack of protective measures when parked, the risk will increase exponentially, especially when charging while parked. Furthermore, in certain environments such as underground parking lots, small parking lots, or charging stations, fire protection resources cannot be deployed or used smoothly, posing a significant risk to public safety and property safety.
[0005] In the past two years, a few parking lots have started to use fire water spray to extinguish fires in parking spaces, such as the fire extinguishing device for new energy vehicle parking spaces CN216092001U, the fire separation system for underground parking spaces CN216169473U, the fire prevention and extinguishing device and method for parking spaces in parking lots CN113289283A, and the fire detection and isolation system and method for automobile parking spaces CN114432616A, but such external spraying does not play a real role in extinguishing fires in electric vehicles, like scratching an itch on your foot through your shoes. Electric vehicle fires are closely related to the charging and discharging of the internal power battery, and due to the limitations of the body materials of electric vehicles, external spraying cannot solve the fires of the internal batteries. Once a fire breaks out, in most cases, the entire car will burn before external firefighting can begin. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0022] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the automatic fire extinguishing system for the parking space of the electric vehicle includes a thermal runaway isolation system that isolates a single corresponding parking space, and further includes a detection system, a media system, and a firefighting access system, the detection system is installed inside the battery pack 1 of the electric vehicle and performs fire monitoring for the inside of the battery pack 1, one end of the firefighting access system extends into the inside of the body of the electric vehicle and is connected to the inside of the battery pack 1, and the other end of the firefighting access system extends from the body of the electric vehicle and communicates with the media system, the media system is installed outside the parking space of the electric vehicle, the firefighting access system includes a transport pipeline and a quick coupling mechanism, the quick coupling mechanism is installed in the transport pipeline, and by connecting and disconnecting the quick coupling mechanism, when there is a parked vehicle in the parking space, the battery pack 1 of the electric vehicle and the media system are quickly connected, and when the vehicle is about to leave the parking space, the battery pack 1 of the electric vehicle and the media system are quickly disconnected. Electric vehicles, in particular, have environmental protection characteristics of not consuming gasoline, and in recent years, with strong government support and popularization, have been on consumers' purchase lists. Electric vehicles need to be charged to obtain power, and when the battery pack 1 is charged while parked, it is easy to cause thermal runaway and even fires when the battery pack 1 is charged at high temperatures due to charging and discharging, especially when the external air temperature is also high. Since the external case of the battery pack 1 itself is required to be sealed, it is difficult to accurately extinguish the inside of the battery pack 1 in an actual electric vehicle, which is the reason why the fire protection technology in this field in recent years is limited to external spraying and separation of the parking space. Based on the technology of external spraying and separation of the parking space, the present invention innovatively proposes a technology for extinguishing a fire by accurately monitoring the battery pack 1 inside the electric vehicle, accurately preventing and controlling thermal runaway, and accurately injecting a fire extinguishing medium, and when a fire breaks out inside, it is surely effective to extinguish the fire inside.

The firefighting access system enables accurate prevention and control of the battery pack 1 inside the electric vehicle and accurate extinguishing. The one-way valve 22 can ensure that the transport pipeline only feeds in and does not discharge, and feeding only into the battery pack 1 also contributes to sealing the case of the battery pack 1.

[0032] The thermal runaway separation system includes a fire pipe and a plurality of spray heads, the fire pipe is installed above a single parking space, and the plurality of spray heads are evenly distributed on the fire pipe. The thermal runaway separation system can use the conventional technology.
[0033] The detection system and the control unit each have a built-in wireless communication module, and the detection system and the control unit realize data transmission and control through the wireless communication module. A data concentrator is integrated in the control unit, and the data concentrator is responsible for data processing and connection / cutoff control. Specifically, the wireless communication module has a wireless transmission / reception function, and establishes a connection and realizes data exchange through an internal protocol and an internal ad-hoc network method, thereby achieving the function of detecting and controlling thermal runaway. The detector of the detection system transmits detected data through the wireless communication module, and the control unit receives the data transmitted from the detector through the wireless communication module. The data concentrator processes the data transmitted from the detector, and selectively controls to inject N2 or a fire extinguishing medium into the battery pack based on the data processing result. Specifically, a wireless transmission and reception hardware circuit is installed in the detector, and a wireless transmission and reception hardware circuit is installed in the control unit. The detector and the control unit communicate data through a wireless network. The wireless network uses an ultra-low power consumption 802.15.4 system chip as the main chip and uses a 6LowPan protocol stack, which meets the low power consumption requirement, and the provided wireless connection has stronger penetration ability and longer transmission distance. The 802.15.4 system chip wireless standard provides low power consumption, low data rate PHY in multiple frequency bands without the need to apply for a license, the 802.15.4 system chip wireless standard defines a MAC layer based on trusted and verified packets, and has optional encryption and verification functions, the 6LowPan protocol stack has one 802.15.4 2.4GHz PHY and one link layer based on 802.15.4, and adds synchronization, channel frequency modulation, priority and time-based verification to the MAC layer of the 802.15.4 system chip wireless standard, the 6LowPan protocol stack has one network layer that provides path and end-to-end security, and one unreliable / reliable mesh transmission layer, and the 6LowPan protocol stack specifies slot timing, device synchronization maintenance method and slot channel frequency modulation characteristics. The 802.15.4 system chip wireless standard eliminates the barriers of current wireless communication technology.The role of the 6LowPan protocol is to realize the seamless integration of wireless communication and wired devices. A wireless network built on the basis of the protocol is a highly reliable network, and each device has multiple neighboring devices to which it can transmit data, even when the distance between the devices is tens to hundreds of meters, thereby providing the line hierarchy necessary to achieve high reliability. The current environment of new energy vehicles reduces the reliability of wireless communication, and transmitted packets are often blocked from being transmitted to the receiver. Assuming that two independent transmitters transmit data on the same channel, they may corrupt each other's signals to the radio circuit of the receiver, so that the transmitters need to retransmit, causing an increase in time and energy consumption. The wireless communication technology of the present application can well solve the problem of the low reliability of current wireless communication. The detector is responsible for collecting and reporting the current environment status information to the control unit, which is the network manager. Furthermore, the wireless communication module, which is the wireless transmission and reception hardware circuit, includes a wireless integrated chip, a power chip, a hardware encryption chip, and an antenna, and the wireless transmission and reception hardware circuit is a connection bridge between the wireless network and the detection control system, and the wireless transmission and reception hardware circuit is responsible for executing the access point wireless function and the network management algorithm, thereby ensuring the reliability of the network performance, and the wireless network enables channel frequency modulation and adjusts the duty ratio of wireless communication by using time synchronization. The hardware encryption chip ensures that the entire communication cannot be deciphered by outsiders, and the power chip is used to power the wireless transmission and reception hardware circuit. If a wireless node is suddenly turned off (failed), the neighboring nodes of this wireless node will report a route warning after a certain time, and the route warning will cause the network manager to try to recommunicate with the wireless node, and after the communication failure continues for a certain period of time, the network manager will discard the failed wireless node and rematch a new wireless node route.The main chip's strong keys and key management, whitelist settings, cryptographic quality random number generation, and message integrity checking, combined with hardware encryption chips, etc., encrypt all transmitted data, greatly improving the security of the system.
