[0037] Referring to FIG. 1 , a discharging method of a battery 10 according to an embodiment of the present application includes:

[0038] Step 001: Obtain the current temperature of the battery 10 and the valley voltage of the battery 10;

[0039] Step 002: When the current temperature of the battery 10 and the valley voltage of the battery 10 meet preset conditions, determine the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 according to the current state of charge of the battery 10 and the current temperature of the battery 10;

[0040] Step 003 : Control the battery 10 to discharge the load device 80 according to the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 .

[0041] In the above-described discharge method, when the current temperature of the battery 10 and the valley voltage of the battery 10 meet preset conditions, the maximum discharge power required by the battery 10 is adjusted, and the battery 10 then discharges the load device 80 at the corresponding maximum discharge power. This improves the discharge capability of the battery 10 under low temperature conditions and the cycle life of the battery 10 without increasing additional energy consumption.

[0042] Specifically, in one embodiment, the system can detect the current temperature of the battery 10 and the valley voltage of the battery 10. The valley voltage of the battery 10 refers to the lowest voltage of the battery 10. For example, at low temperatures, the material properties and high polarization internal resistance of the ternary lithium battery 10 can cause the voltage of the battery 10 to drop rapidly during discharge, reaching its lowest voltage. This lowest voltage is referred to as the valley voltage. The system can be configured with preset conditions. When the current temperature of the battery 10 and the valley voltage of the battery 10 meet the preset conditions, the system can determine the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 based on the current state of charge and the current temperature of the battery 10. The current state of charge of the battery 10 can be read from device records. In one embodiment, after the battery 10 determines the required maximum discharge power, the system can control the battery 10 to discharge the load device 80 at this maximum discharge power, thereby improving the battery 10's discharge capability at low temperatures and extending the battery's cycle life without increasing additional energy consumption.

[0043] It should be noted that generally the battery 10 cannot work normally at low temperatures, and a heating device is needed to heat the battery 10 to solve the problem of low temperature use. The use of a heating device increases additional energy consumption, and it takes a long heating time to heat the battery 10 at low temperatures to the normal usage temperature.

[0044] 2 , in some embodiments, the preset condition is that the current temperature of the battery 10 is within a preset temperature range, and the valley voltage of the battery 10 is greater than the undervoltage protection voltage of the battery 10 .

[0045] In this way, it can be determined that the battery 10 is discharged at the corresponding maximum discharge power.

[0046] Specifically, in the embodiment shown in Figure 2, taking the data of the maximum discharge power of a ternary lithium battery at different low temperatures as an example, the ternary lithium battery is placed in a set low-temperature box and left to stand for more than 12 hours. Then, a computer is connected to read data such as the voltage and temperature of the ternary lithium battery, and a load device 80 is connected to read the load power, and the on-load data of the ternary lithium battery is recorded in real time. In the table, the valley voltage can be represented by Un, where n = 0, 1, 2, 3,..., n, SOC represents the state of charge of the battery 10, BMS represents the battery management system, CUV represents the under-voltage protection voltage of the battery 10, T represents the temperature, and P represents the power. In this example, the under-voltage protection voltage of the battery 10 is a fixed value, and there is no need to change the under-voltage protection voltage of the battery 10. The maximum discharge power can be determined by the discharge gear, and the discharge gear can include gear 1, gear 2, gear 3, gear 4, gear 5, and gear 6.

[0047] In one example, in an environment of -10°C to 60°C, the battery 10 can discharge to any state of charge without dividing the discharge gear.

[0048] In one example, in an environment of -20°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 1.0P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 100%, the preset temperature of gear 1 can be -10°C < T ≤ -20°C, satisfying the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is not greater than the preset temperature. The valley voltage of the battery 10 can be 3.216V, satisfying the condition that the valley voltage of the battery 10 is greater than the under-voltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that it can be determined that the battery 10 discharges to any state of charge in the discharge gear of gear 1.

[0049] In one example, in an environment of -20°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 0.7P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 58%, the preset temperature of gear 2 can be -10°C < T ≤ -20°C, satisfying the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is not greater than the preset temperature. The valley voltage of the battery 10 can be 3.202V, satisfying the condition that the valley voltage of the battery 10 is greater than the under-voltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that it can be determined that the battery 10 discharges to any state of charge in the discharge gear of gear 2.

[0050] In one example, in an environment of -20°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 0.4P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 28%, the preset temperature of gear 3 can be -10°C < T ≤ -20°C, satisfying the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is not greater than the preset temperature. The valley voltage of the battery 10 can be 3.050V, satisfying the condition that the valley voltage of the battery 10 is greater than the under-voltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that it can be determined that the battery 10 discharges to any state of charge in the discharge gear of gear 3.

[0051] In one example, in an environment of -30°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 0.7P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 100%, the preset temperature of gear 4 can be -20°C < T ≤ -30°C, satisfying the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is not greater than the preset temperature. The low-voltage of the battery 10 can be 3.045V, satisfying the condition that the low-voltage of the battery 10 is greater than the under-voltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that it can be determined that the battery 10 discharges to any state of charge when the discharge gear is gear 4.

[0052] In one example, in an environment of -30°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 0.4P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 58%, the preset temperature of gear 5 can be -20°C < T ≤ -30°C, satisfying the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is not greater than the preset temperature. The low-voltage of the battery 10 can be 3.105V, satisfying the condition that the low-voltage of the battery 10 is greater than the under-voltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that it can be determined that the battery 10 discharges to any state of charge when the discharge gear is gear 5.

[0053] In one example, in an environment of -30°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 0.25P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 28%, the preset temperature of gear 6 can be -20°C < T ≤ -30°C, satisfying the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is not greater than the preset temperature. The low-voltage of the battery 10 can be 3.076V, satisfying the condition that the low-voltage of the battery 10 is greater than the under-voltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that it can be determined that the battery 10 discharges to any state of charge when the discharge gear is gear 6.

[0054] It should be noted that gear 1 can set the state of charge range of the battery 10 as 60% ≤ SOC ≤ 100%, gear 2 can set the state of charge range of the battery 10 as 30% ≤ SOC < 60%, gear 3 can set the state of charge range of the battery 10 as 0% < SOC < 30%, gear 4 can set the state of charge range of the battery 10 as 60% ≤ SOC ≤ 100%, gear 5 can set the state of charge range of the battery 10 as 30% ≤ SOC < 60%, and gear 6 can set the state of charge range of the battery 10 as 0% < SOC < 30%.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 2. In some embodiments, the discharging method includes:

[0056] When the current temperature of the battery 10 or the low-voltage of the battery 10 does not meet the preset conditions, control the battery 10 not to discharge.

[0057] In this way, it can play a role in protecting the battery 10.

[0058] Specifically, in one example, in an environment of -20°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 1.0P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 40%, and the preset temperature of gear 2 can be -10°C < T ≤ -20°C, meeting the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is within the preset temperature range. However, the low valley voltage of the battery 10 is less than the undervoltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that the current temperature of the battery 10 and the low valley voltage of the battery 10 do not meet the preset conditions, and the system can control the battery 10 not to discharge, and the state of charge of the battery 10 does not change.

[0059] In one example, in an environment of -20°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 0.7P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 20%, and the preset temperature of gear 3 can be -10°C < T ≤ -20°C, meeting the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is within the preset temperature range. However, the low valley voltage of the battery 10 is less than the undervoltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that the current temperature of the battery 10 and the low valley voltage of the battery 10 do not meet the preset conditions, and the system can control the battery 10 not to discharge, and the state of charge of the battery 10 does not change.

[0060] In one example, in an environment of -30°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 1.0P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 40%, and the preset temperature of gear 4 can be -20°C < T ≤ -30°C, meeting the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is within the preset temperature range. However, the low valley voltage of the battery 10 is less than the undervoltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that the current temperature of the battery 10 and the low valley voltage of the battery 10 do not meet the preset conditions, and the system can control the battery 10 not to discharge, and the state of charge of the battery 10 does not change.

[0061] In one example, in an environment of -30°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 0.7P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 50%, and the preset temperature of gear 5 can be -20°C < T ≤ -30°C, meeting the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is within the preset temperature range. However, the low valley voltage of the battery 10 is less than the undervoltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that the current temperature of the battery 10 and the low valley voltage of the battery 10 do not meet the preset conditions, and the system can control the battery 10 not to discharge, and the state of charge of the battery 10 does not change.

[0062] In one example, in an environment of -30°C, the load power of the load device 80 can be 0.4P, the current state of charge of the battery 10 can be 20%, and the preset temperature of gear 6 can be -20°C < T ≤ -30°C, meeting the condition that the current temperature of the battery 10 is within the preset temperature range. However, the low valley voltage of the battery 10 is less than the undervoltage protection voltage of the battery 10, so that the current temperature of the battery 10 and the low valley voltage of the battery 10 do not meet the preset conditions, and the system can control the battery 10 not to discharge, and the state of charge of the battery 10 does not change.

[0063] In addition, the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 is a voltage curve graph of discharging at a temperature of -20°C, a state of charge of the battery 10 of 30%, and a load power of the load device 80 of 0.7P in this embodiment. Point D in the figure can represent the low valley voltage in this curve state.

[0064] The embodiment shown in FIG. 4 is a voltage and state of charge curve graph of discharging at a temperature of -20°C, a state of charge of the battery of 40%, and a load power of the load device 80 of 1.0P in a comparative case. The battery discharges at a discharge power of 1.0P at the beginning. Without discharge gear control for discharging, the voltage of the battery will quickly drop to the undervoltage protection voltage of the battery, that is, the low valley voltage of the battery is less than or equal to the undervoltage protection voltage of the battery, and the state of charge of the battery can jump to 0, and the battery no longer discharges. L1 can represent the voltage of the comparative case, and L2 can represent the state of charge of the comparative case.

[0065] The embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is a voltage and state of charge curve graph of discharging at a temperature of -20°C, a state of charge of the battery 10 of 40%, and a load power of the load device 80 of 1.0P in this embodiment. At this time, it can be determined that the discharge gear of the battery 10 is gear 2, but the low valley voltage of the battery 10 is not greater than the undervoltage protection voltage of the battery 10, and the system can control the battery 10 not to discharge, and the state of charge of the battery 10 does not change. L3 can represent the voltage of this embodiment, and L4 can represent the state of charge of this embodiment.

[0066] It should be noted that in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, multiple batteries 10 can be assembled into a battery pack. L5 can represent the pressure difference between the batteries in the battery pack of the comparative case, and L6 can represent the pressure difference between the batteries 10 in the battery pack of this embodiment. It can be seen from the figure that the curve change amplitude of the pressure difference between the batteries 10 in this embodiment is smaller as the discharge time progresses, which is beneficial to maintaining the voltage consistency between the batteries 10, and thus can help improve the cycle life of the batteries 10.

[0067] Please refer to FIG. 2. In some embodiments, determining the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 according to the current state of charge of the battery 10 and the current temperature of the battery 10 includes:

[0068] determining a discharge position of the battery 10 according to a current state of charge of the battery 10 and a current temperature of the battery 10 ;

[0069] The maximum discharge power of the battery 10 is determined according to the discharge gear of the battery 10 .

[0070] In this way, the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 can be adjusted through the discharge gear.

[0071] Specifically, in one embodiment, the discharge gear can set the maximum discharge power of the corresponding battery 10. The maximum discharge power can be determined by the discharge gear, which can include gear 1, gear 2, gear 3, gear 4, gear 5, and gear 6.

[0072] In one example, the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 corresponding to gear 1 may be 1.0P. The maximum discharge power of the battery 10 corresponding to gear 2 may be 0.7P. The maximum discharge power of the battery 10 corresponding to gear 3 may be 0.4P. The maximum discharge power of the battery 10 corresponding to gear 4 may be 0.7P. The maximum discharge power of the battery 10 corresponding to gear 5 may be 0.4P. The maximum discharge power of the battery 10 corresponding to gear 6 may be 0.25P. It should be noted that the discharge rate may include discharge power and discharge current. It will be understood that in other embodiments, the discharge gear may also determine the discharge current of the battery 10, and ultimately control the discharge of the battery 10 to the load device 80.

[0073] 2 , in some embodiments, controlling the battery 10 to discharge the load device 80 according to the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 includes:

[0074] When the load power of the load device 80 is not greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 , the battery 10 is controlled to discharge the load device 80 .

[0075] In this way, the battery 10 can be controlled to discharge to the load device 80 .

[0076] Specifically, in the discharge gear, a power protection mechanism can be set for the maximum discharge power of the battery 10. When the load power of the load device 80 is not greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10, the system can control the battery 10 to discharge the load device 80.

[0077] In one embodiment, the power protection mechanism of gear 1 is that the load power of the load device 80 is not greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10, which is 1.0P. The power protection mechanism of gear 2 is that the load power of the load device 80 is not greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10, which is 0.7P. The power protection mechanism of gear 3 is that the load power of the load device 80 is not greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10, which is 0.4P. The power protection mechanism of gear 4 is that the load power of the load device 80 is not greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10, which is 0.7P. The power protection mechanism of gear 5 is that the load power of the load device 80 is not greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10, which is 0.4P. The power protection mechanism of gear 6 is that the load power of the load device 80 is not greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10, which is 0.25P.

[0078] In conjunction with FIG2 , in certain embodiments, the discharge method includes:

[0079] When the load power of the load device 80 is greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 , the battery 10 is controlled not to discharge.

[0080] In this way, the battery 10 can be controlled not to discharge.

[0081] Specifically, in one example, when it is determined that the discharge gear of the battery 10 is gear 2, the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 at gear 2 is 0.7P. If the load power of the load device 80 is 1.0P, the load power of the load device 80 is greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10. The load power of the load device 80 does not meet the power protection mechanism, and the system controls the battery 10 not to discharge.

[0082] In one example, when it is determined that the discharge gear of the battery 10 is gear 3, the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 at gear 3 is 0.4P. If the load power of the load device 80 is 0.7P, the load power of the load device 80 is greater than the maximum discharge power of the battery 10. The load power of the load device 80 does not meet the power protection mechanism, and the system controls the battery 10 not to discharge.

[0083] In one example, when it is determined that the discharge gear of the battery 10 is gear 4, the maximum discharge power of the battery 10 at gear 4 is 0.7P.
