Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of new energy vehicles, and more particularly to a device for equivalently realizing charging by an on-board charger based on a dual-winding motor control topology. [Background technology]
[0002] Batteries are an important factor restricting the development of electric vehicles. Compared with lead-acid batteries and nickel-ion batteries, lithium batteries have advantages such as high energy density, long average service life, high single-cell operating voltage and current, high power density, non-toxicity, and low cost, and are therefore widely used in the field of electric vehicles. At present, electric vehicle users generally pay attention to battery charging issues.
[0003] A charging pile is a non-onboard charging device that is usually installed at a fixed operating location and can directly supply DC voltage to the battery pack of an electric vehicle, offering the advantages of large charging power and fast charging speed. However, since the charging location is fixed and portability is poor, an onboard charger can provide a more convenient charging method than a charging pile.
[0004] Due to the limited space inside a vehicle, on-board chargers must be small in volume and weight, and from the user's perspective, high charging efficiency is required. At the same time, satisfying user requirements for functionality while minimizing hardware costs is also an important issue that developers must consider.
[0005] Currently, an on-board charger must be added to the hardware configuration of an electric vehicle as a separate module, and related optimization solutions are developed for the entire module. Therefore, in response to the above discussion, it is desirable to develop a new on-board charger alternative that can effectively resolve the space limitations of electric vehicles, reduce the overall hardware cost, and maximize charging efficiency.
[0006] For example, Chinese Patent Application No. CN202110732515.0 discloses an on-board integrated charger drive circuit based on a dual three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor drive system. The system operates in multiple functional modes, such as electric drive, charging, and V2G. The electric drive, high-rated inverter, and motor winding can all be multiplexed, eliminating the need for additional components and reducing costs. However, the technical solution in this application has problems such as low charging efficiency and large heat generation. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only for the purpose of illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0021] (Example) In an apparatus that equivalently realizes charging by an on-board charger based on a dual-winding motor control topology, as shown in Figure 1, the configuration in dual-winding motor control mode includes a battery module, a first dual-winding motor power control module, a first dual-winding motor winding module, a second dual-winding motor power control module, and a second dual-winding motor winding module.
[0022] In the battery module, the positive and negative electrodes of the battery are connected to Node 1 and Node 2, respectively. Two paths are drawn out from each, connected to the upper and lower ends of the first and second double-winding motor power control modules, respectively, and DC voltage is supplied to the two-path three-phase inverter circuits. In one of the paths, a pair of upper and lower bridge arms Q1 and Q2 are connected in parallel between the battery in the module and capacitor C1 in the first double-winding motor power control module. Each bridge arm is equipped with a power switch tube and a freewheeling diode. Relay K1 is connected to the path connected to the upper end of bridge arm Q1, and Node 1 is drawn out. Relay K2 is connected to the path connected to the lower end of bridge arm Q2, and Node 2 is drawn out. Relay K3 is drawn out from the midpoint between the upper and lower bridge arms Q1 and Q2, and Node L is drawn out. Node L is connected to the L terminal of the commercial power module. In the other path, no additional associated power devices and relay switch devices are provided. In the double-winding motor control mode, relays K1 and K2 are turned on and relay K3 is turned off, so that bridge arms Q1 and Q2 are both cut off, and bridge arms Q1 and Q2 form the first-phase bridge arms. In this mode, bridge arms Q1 and Q2 are somewhat redundant, but are an essential component in the on-board charger charging mode.
[0023] The first double-winding motor power control module comprises a capacitor C1 and a three-phase bridge arm, the upper and lower ends of which are connected to the upper and lower ends of the three-phase inverter circuit bridge arm, including a second-phase bridge arm, a third-phase bridge arm and a fourth-phase bridge arm, each phase being divided into two upper and lower bridge arms, each bridge arm being connected to a power switch tube and a freewheeling diode, the basic block UT1 being the upper bridge arm of the first-phase bridge arm, QU B1 is the 1The basic block VT1 is the lower bridge arm of the first-phase bridge arm, and the two blocks are connected to each other with their midpoints connected to the first winding La1 of the first double-winding motor winding module. The basic block VT1 is the upper bridge arm of the second-phase bridge arm, and the basic block VB1 is the lower bridge arm of the second-phase bridge arm, and the two blocks are connected to each other with their midpoints connected to the second winding Lb1 of the first double-winding motor winding module. The basic block WT1 is the upper bridge arm of the third-phase bridge arm, and the basic block WB1 is the lower bridge arm of the third-phase bridge arm, and the two blocks are connected to each other with their midpoints connected to the third winding Lc1 of the first double-winding motor winding module. The three-phase bridge arm's midpoint is connected to the three-phase winding of the first double-winding motor winding module. By controlling the gate signals of the power tubes of each bridge arm, the first double-winding motor power control module outputs PWM waves to drive the first double-winding motor winding module.
[0024] The first double-winding motor winding module is composed of a star-connected three-phase symmetrical winding consisting of a first winding La1, a second winding Lb1, and a third winding Lc1, all of which have the same electrical resistance and inductance characteristics. A double-pole double-throw switch is disposed in the link connecting the first winding La1 to the star midpoint. Relay K5 controls the connection between the first winding La1 and the star midpoint, and relay K4 controls the connection between the first winding La1 and node N, which is connected to terminal N of the commercial power supply module. When relay K4 is turned off and relay K5 is turned on, normal operation of the winding module in motor drive mode is ensured.
[0025] The second double-winding motor power control module consists of a capacitor C2 and three-phase bridge arms, including a fifth-phase bridge arm, a sixth-phase bridge arm, and a seventh-phase bridge arm. Each phase is divided into two bridge arms, one above the other, each with a power switch tube and a freewheeling diode connected to it. The basic block UT2 is the upper bridge arm of the fifth-phase bridge arm, and the basic block UB2 is the lower bridge arm of the fifth-phase bridge arm. The two blocks are connected together. The midpoints of the bridge arms are connected to the fourth set La2 of the second double-winding motor winding module, and a relay K6 is located in the path. The basic block VT2 is the upper bridge arm of the sixth-phase bridge arm, and the basic block VB2 is the lower bridge arm of the sixth-phase bridge arm. The two blocks are connected together, and the midpoints of the bridge arms are connected to the fifth winding Lb2 of the second double-winding motor winding module. The WT2 basic block is the upper bridge arm of the seventh-phase bridge arm, and the WB2 basic block is the lower bridge arm of the seventh-phase bridge arm. The two blocks are connected together, and the midpoints of the bridge arms are connected to the sixth winding Lc2 of the second double-winding motor winding module, controlling relay K6 to turn on. The midpoints of the three-phase bridge arms are connected to the three-phase windings of the second double-winding motor winding module. By controlling the gate signals of the power tubes of each bridge arm, the second double-winding motor power control module outputs PWM waves to drive the second double-winding motor winding module.
[0026] The second double-winding motor winding module is composed of a star-connected fourth winding La2, a fifth winding Lb2, and a sixth winding Lc2, which are three-phase symmetrical windings. The fourth winding La2, the fifth winding Lb2, and the sixth winding Lc2 have the same electrical resistance and inductance characteristics, and the PWM signal from the second double-winding motor power control module is wave The drive is controlled by
[0027] In the dual-winding motor control mode, the battery module simultaneously drives and controls the first dual-winding motor winding module and the second dual-winding motor winding module by the first dual-winding motor power control module and the second dual-winding motor power control module, respectively.
[0028] FIG. 2 shows the configuration of an on-board charger in charging mode according to the present invention, which includes a commercial power supply module, a PFC inverter circuit module, an inverter module, an isolation transformer module, a rectifier module, and a battery module.
[0029] For the commercial power supply module, in on-board charger charging mode, relays K3 and K4 are controlled to be on, relays K1 and K2 are turned off, the N terminal of the commercial power supply is connected to connection point N, and the L terminal of the commercial power supply is connected to connection point L, thereby realizing power transmission to the PFC inverter circuit.
[0030] In the PFC inverter circuit module, by turning off relay K5, the first winding La1 is removed from the star connection in motor control mode and placed in the PFC inverter circuit module as a single resistor-inductor element. Bridge arms Q1 and Q2 are switched from the cutoff state in dual-winding motor control mode to the enabled state, and bridge arms UT1, UB1, Q1, and Q2 form a two-phase bridge arm, with both the upper and lower ends simultaneously connected in parallel to capacitor C1. The on / off of each bridge arm is controlled by its gate signal, jointly realizing PFC inverting boost.
[0031] In the inverter module, a two-phase bridge arm is formed by bridge arm VT1, bridge arm VB1, bridge arm WT1, and bridge arm WB1, and the inverter function is realized by controlling the gate signal of each power switch tube, and a high-frequency alternating voltage is output.
[0032] In the isolation transformer module, by turning off relays K5 and K6, the first winding La1 and the fourth winding La2 are disconnected from the star connection in motor control mode, and the second winding Lb1 and the third winding Lc1 are automatically connected in series to form the primary side of the transformer. The fifth winding Lb2 and the sixth winding Lc2 are automatically connected in series to form the secondary side of the transformer. The number of turns of the two windings is rationally arranged to achieve the transformation function of the isolation transformer. The number of turns of the three-phase windings in the first double-winding motor winding module and the three-phase windings in the second double-winding motor winding module are different. This is used to control the turns ratio between the primary and secondary sides of the isolation transformer module when switching to on-board charger charging mode, thereby achieving the boost function of the module. The number of turns of the windings can be rationally set according to actual demand, and the boost demand of the isolation transformer module can be achieved.
[0033] The rectifier module consists of bridge arm VT2, bridge arm VB2, bridge arm WT2, and bridge arm WB2, which form a two-phase bridge arm. The upper and lower ends of the bridge arm are connected to both ends of capacitor C2, respectively. The rectifier function is realized by controlling the gate signals of each power switch tube, and a DC charging voltage is output to charge the battery.
[0034] At this time, the relays K1 and K2 of the battery module are controlled to be turned off, and the battery is structurally connected only to the rectifier module and is charged by receiving the power output from the rectifier module.
[0035] As shown in Figure 3, the conditions for switching between the dual-winding motor control mode and the on-board charger charging mode are as follows: In the on-board charger charging mode, relays K1, K2, K5, and K6 are controlled to be off, and relays K3 and K4 are controlled to be on; in the dual-winding motor control mode, relays K1, K2, K5, and K6 are controlled to be on, and relays K3 and K4 are controlled to be off.
[0036] All power switch tubes and relay switches in the topology structure of the present invention may be replaced by any device with similar switching characteristics.
[0037] The above-described embodiments are merely preferred solutions of the present invention, and do not limit the present invention in any way. There are other modifications and improvements available, provided that they do not exceed the technical solutions set forth in the claims.
