[0039] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present disclosure, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present disclosure, and should not be construed as limiting the present disclosure.
[0040] The implementation details of the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure are described in detail below.
[0041] As shown in FIG1 , FIG1 provides a control block diagram of a vehicle collision safety protection system. The working principle of the vehicle collision safety protection system will be described in detail below in conjunction with FIG1 .
[0042] In one embodiment, a vehicle collision safety protection system includes a first protection switch unit, a second protection switch unit, at least one collision detection unit, and a control unit.
[0043] The first protection switch unit is arranged in the high-voltage circuit of the power battery. Therefore, when the first protection unit is disconnected, the high-voltage circuit of the power battery can be cut off, preventing the power battery from continuing to provide high-voltage output to the vehicle end.
[0044] The second protection switch unit is provided at the positive terminal of the power battery and is connected in series with the positive terminal of the power battery. Therefore, when the second protection switch unit is disconnected, the positive output of the power battery can be cut off.
[0045] As shown in Figure 2, which shows the electrical schematic of the vehicle collision safety protection system, the positive output terminal of the power battery is connected to the second protection switch unit, and the first protection switch unit is then connected to the high-voltage circuit of the power battery. Specifically, the input terminal of the first protection switch unit is connected to the second protection switch unit, and the output terminal of the first protection switch unit is connected to the negative terminal of the power battery, so that the second protection switch unit is placed inside the first protection switch unit. It should be noted that the position close to the power battery is referred to as the inside, and the position away from the power battery is referred to as the outside. In the electrical schematic of Figure 2, the position where the second protection switch unit is connected to the circuit is closer to the power battery than the position where the first protection switch unit is connected to the circuit.
[0046] At least one collision detection unit can detect whether the vehicle has collided using different sensors. For example, a three-axis acceleration sensor can detect changes in the vehicle's real-time acceleration to detect whether the vehicle has collided. In actual applications, to avoid situations where the collision detection unit may falsely detect a vehicle collision or fail to detect a vehicle collision due to a malfunction, multiple collision detection units can be configured to improve the accuracy of vehicle collision detection.
[0047] The control unit controller is essentially a battery management system (BMS). The main functions of BMS are to improve the utilization rate of power batteries, prevent overcharging and over-discharging of power batteries, extend the service life of power batteries, monitor battery status, and be a system that can manage, control and use power batteries.
[0048] In this embodiment, the control unit is capable of receiving information detected by the collision detection unit, so that the control unit can control the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit to disconnect when the vehicle collides. By controlling the disconnection of the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit, the purpose of disconnecting the high voltage can be achieved, thereby ensuring the safety of the vehicle after the collision. For example, timely disconnection of the vehicle's high voltage can prevent damage to the vehicle's power battery and cause an accident. In actual applications, the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit have different structures, and therefore the disconnection method and operation method of the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit are also different, resulting in different failure conditions of the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit. Therefore, if the first protection switch unit is facing a failure, the high voltage can be disconnected by the second protection switch unit, and if the second protection switch unit is facing a failure, the high voltage can be disconnected by the first protection switch unit. Therefore, in this embodiment, the simultaneous disconnection of the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit can provide dual protection. Such that if one protection switch unit cannot be disconnected, the purpose of disconnecting the high voltage can be achieved by disconnecting the other protection switch unit, thereby ensuring that the high voltage can be successfully disconnected in the event of a collision.
[0049] In one embodiment, the second protection switch unit is an intelligent fuse, wherein the intelligent fuse includes a gunpowder ignition part, a drive part and a cut-off part. When the control unit determines that the second protection switch unit needs to be controlled to be disconnected, the control unit sends a disconnection command to the second protection switch unit. When the intelligent fuse receives the disconnection command issued by the control unit, it ignites the inside of the gunpowder ignition part. When the inside of the gunpowder ignition part is ignited, a large pressure will be generated. The generated pressure can push the drive part to move quickly. During the movement of the drive part, the cut-off part can cut the copper bar back and forth and cut off the copper bar, thereby cutting off the high-voltage circuit and stopping the drive battery from supplying power to the vehicle end.
[0050] In one embodiment, the first protection switch unit is a high-voltage relay, comprising a main positive relay and a main negative relay. The main positive relay is connected in series with the second protection switch unit. The main positive relay is located on the positive side of the power battery. Specifically, one end of the second protection switch unit is connected to the positive output terminal of the power battery, and the other end of the second protection switch unit is connected to the main positive relay. The main positive relay can control the charging and discharging processes of the power battery. The main negative relay is connected in series with the negative terminal of the power battery to control the grounding of the negative terminal of the power battery, ensuring the safe operation of the battery pack.
[0051] In actual use, when the control circuits of the main positive and negative relays are energized, the coils of the main positive and negative relays are energized by the current, generating a magnetic field. This magnetic field magnetizes the iron cores in the main positive and negative relays, attracting the contacts and squeezing the springs between the contacts. This ultimately closes the contacts, connecting the main positive and negative relays and providing main power to the vehicle. In the event of a vehicle collision, the control unit can disconnect the power to the control circuit. This de-energizes the coils of the main positive and negative relays, dissipating the magnetic field and allowing the springs between the contacts to return to their original state, opening the contacts and disconnecting the main positive and negative relays. This disconnects the high-voltage circuit and stops the supply of high-voltage power to the vehicle.
[0052] In actual applications, the main positive relay and the main negative relay are prone to adhesion failure due to overcurrent and overheating, resulting in the main positive relay and the main negative relay being unable to disconnect in time, or requiring a long time to disconnect. In this case, the control unit can also control the second protection switch unit to disconnect, thereby also achieving the effect of disconnecting the high voltage.
[0053] In one embodiment, the collision detection unit includes a first collision detection unit and a second collision detection unit. The first collision detection unit includes a first collision sensor and an airbag controller. The first collision sensor can detect whether the vehicle has been involved in a collision and transmit collision information to the airbag controller. The airbag controller can control the deployment of the airbag based on the collision information. For example, the airbag controller controls the deployment of the airbag when the collision information determines that the vehicle has been involved in a collision, and controls the non-deployment of the airbag when the collision information determines that the vehicle has not been involved. In addition, when the first collision sensor detects a vehicle collision, the airbag controller can also transmit the collision information to the control unit via a controller area network (CAN) bus, so that the control unit controls the disconnection of the first and second protection switch units based on the collision information.
[0054] The second collision detection unit includes a second collision sensor, which can detect whether the vehicle has collided. When the second collision sensor detects that the vehicle has collided, it sends a collision signal to the control unit. The control unit can control the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit to disconnect according to the collision signal.
[0055] The control unit determines whether it is necessary to control the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit to be disconnected based on the collision situation of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the control unit can receive collision information sent by the airbag controller and can also receive collision signals sent by the second collision detection unit. When the control unit receives at least one of the collision information and the collision signal, it can determine that the vehicle has collided, and then control the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit to be disconnected.
[0056] In the above embodiment, the vehicle collision safety protection system is configured with a total of two protection switch units, which can simultaneously control the two protection switch units to be disconnected in the event of a vehicle collision. Therefore, if one of the protection switch units cannot be successfully disconnected, the high voltage can be cut off by disconnecting the other protection switch unit, thereby ensuring the safety of the vehicle.
[0057] The present disclosure also provides a vehicle equipped with a vehicle collision safety protection system.
[0058] The present disclosure also provides a vehicle collision safety protection method, which is applied to a vehicle, as shown in FIG3 , which shows a flow chart of a vehicle collision safety protection method, wherein the vehicle collision safety protection method includes the following steps:
[0059] Step S301: Detect whether the vehicle has collided.
[0060] Here, whether the vehicle has collided can be detected by a collision sensor on the vehicle. For example, a three-axis acceleration sensor can be used to detect changes in the real-time acceleration of the vehicle to detect whether the vehicle has collided.
[0061] Step S302: When a collision of the vehicle is detected, the second protection switch unit is controlled to be disconnected, and the first protection switch unit is controlled to be disconnected to perform double protection.
[0062] Here, the vehicle includes a first protection switch unit, a second protection switch unit and a power battery. A collision of the vehicle may easily cause the power battery of the vehicle to be squeezed or damaged, causing the power battery of the vehicle to cause a fire, etc., posing a threat to the safety of the vehicle. Based on this, when it is determined that a collision has occurred in the vehicle, the first protection switch unit is controlled to be disconnected and the second protection switch unit is controlled to be disconnected.
[0063] In actual applications, the structures of the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit are different, so the disconnection mode and operation method of the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit are also different, which leads to different failure conditions of the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit. Therefore, when the first protection switch unit is facing a failure, the high voltage can be disconnected by the second protection switch unit, and when the second protection switch unit is facing a failure, the high voltage can be disconnected by the first protection switch unit. Therefore, in this embodiment, the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit are controlled to be disconnected at the same time, and double protection can be performed. When one of the protection switch units cannot be disconnected, the purpose of disconnecting the high voltage can also be achieved by disconnecting the other protection switch unit, thereby ensuring that the vehicle can successfully disconnect the high voltage in the event of a collision.
[0064] It should be noted that the connection relationship between the first protection switch unit, the second protection switch unit, and the power battery is shown in the electrical schematic diagram of the vehicle collision safety protection system in Figure 2. Specifically, the first protection switch unit is provided in the high-voltage circuit of the power battery, and the second protection switch unit is connected in series with the positive output terminal of the power battery. The second protection switch unit is located inboard of the first protection switch unit. It should be noted that the position close to the power battery is referred to as the inboard position, and the position away from the power battery is referred to as the outboard position. In the electrical schematic diagram of Figure 2, the second protection switch unit is connected to the circuit closer to the power battery than the first protection switch unit.
[0065] In one embodiment, the second protective switch unit is a smart fuse, which includes a powder ignition unit, a drive unit, and a disconnection unit. Upon detecting a vehicle collision, a disconnection command is sent to the smart fuse. Upon receiving the disconnection command from the control unit, the smart fuse triggers an ignition signal, igniting the interior of the powder ignition unit in response to the ignition signal. The ignition of the interior of the powder ignition unit generates a high pressure, which can propel the drive unit to move rapidly. During this rapid movement, the disconnection unit can sever the copper bus, thereby severing the high-voltage circuit and stopping the drive battery from supplying power to the vehicle.
[0066] In one embodiment, the first protection switch unit is a high-voltage relay comprising a main positive relay and a main negative relay, and the second protection switch unit is an intelligent fuse comprising a powder ignition unit, a drive unit, and a disconnection unit. As shown in FIG2 , the main positive relay is connected in series with the second protection switch unit, while the main negative relay is connected in series with the negative terminal of the power battery. In actual use, when the control circuits of the main positive and negative relays are energized, the coils of the main positive and negative relays are energized by the current, generating a magnetic field. This magnetic field magnetizes the cores in the main positive and negative relays, attracting the contacts and compressing the springs between the contacts, ultimately closing the contacts and connecting the main positive and negative relays, providing high-voltage power to the vehicle. In the event of a vehicle collision, the control unit can disconnect the control circuit power supply, de-energizing the coils of the main positive and negative relays, dissipating the magnetic field, and allowing the springs between the contacts to return to their original state, opening the contacts. This disconnects the main positive and negative relays, disconnecting the high-voltage circuit and stopping the supply of high-voltage power to the vehicle.
[0067] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG4 , detecting whether a vehicle has collided includes:
[0068] Step S401: Detect whether the vehicle has collided by using a first collision sensor to receive collision information sent by an airbag controller connected to the first collision sensor, and detect whether the vehicle has collided by using a second collision sensor to receive a collision signal sent by the second collision sensor.
[0069] In this embodiment, a collision sensor is used to detect whether the vehicle has collided. The vehicle is equipped with two collision sensors. The operation of the two collision sensors will be described in detail below.
[0070] The first collision sensor can detect whether the vehicle has collided and transmit the collision information to the airbag controller. Upon receiving the collision information, the airbag controller controls the airbags based on the collision information. Specifically, if the airbag controller determines that the vehicle has collided based on the collision information, it controls the deployment of the airbags. In addition, the airbag controller can also send the collision information via the CAN bus, so that the control unit can control the disconnection of the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit based on the collision information.
[0071] The second collision sensor can also detect whether the vehicle has collided. The second collision sensor and the control unit are connected by a hard line. The second collision sensor can directly send a collision signal to the control unit, so that the control unit can control the disconnection of the first protection switch unit and the second protection switch unit according to the collision signal.
[0072] Therefore, in this embodiment, whether a vehicle has collided can be determined based on the collision information detected by the first collision sensor, and the collision signal detected by the second collision sensor can also be used to determine whether a vehicle has collided. The provision of two collision sensors can improve the accuracy of vehicle collision detection and prevent the power supply of a normally operating vehicle from being disconnected due to a detection error.
[0073] Step S402: determining whether a vehicle collision occurs based on at least one of the collision information and the collision signal.
[0074] Upon receiving collision information and a collision signal, a determination can be made as to whether the vehicle has collided based on at least one of the collision information and the collision signal. Specifically, if both the collision information and the collision signal indicate that the vehicle has collided, the vehicle is determined to have collided. If one of the collision information and the collision signal indicates that the vehicle has collided and the other indicates that the vehicle has not collided, the detection result can be re-acquired using the first collision sensor or the second collision sensor. In another feasible embodiment, if the collision information and the collision signal are different, the collision information detected by the first collision sensor can be used as the basis. This is because airbag control requires airbag deployment based on the collision information, and therefore the collision information detected by the first collision sensor can be considered to have higher accuracy.
[0075] In practical applications, after the high voltage is cut off by the first protection switch unit or the second protection switch unit, the collision fault of the vehicle may also be reported.
[0076] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG5 , FIG5 shows a flow chart of a vehicle collision safety protection method.
[0077] Step 1: Detecting a vehicle collision. Here, collision detection is performed using a first collision sensor and a second collision sensor to determine whether the vehicle has collided.
[0078] Step 2: Determine whether the first collision sensor detects a vehicle collision.
[0079] Step 3: Determine whether the second collision sensor detects a collision of the vehicle. If the second sensor detects a collision of the vehicle, execute steps 5 and 6.
[0080] Step 4: When the first collision sensor detects a collision of the vehicle, the collision information is sent to the BMS via the CAN bus.
[0081] Step 5: Control the second protection switch unit to be disconnected.
[0082] Step 6: Control the first protection switch unit to be disconnected.
[0083] In the above embodiment, when a collision of the vehicle is detected, the first protection switch unit is controlled to be disconnected, and the second protection switch unit is controlled to be disconnected. When one of the protection switch units fails, the high voltage can be cut off by the other protection switch unit, thereby providing double protection for the vehicle.
