[0004] For electric vehicles that currently include two or more battery packs, the multiple battery packs are connected in series. Electric vehicles are generally charged using direct current or alternating current (DC or AC) to charge all battery packs in the power system. When some of the battery packs fail, the faulty battery pack is equivalent to a short circuit, causing the entire power battery system to fail and rendering other healthy battery packs inoperable. For example, they are unable to continue providing driving force for the vehicle and are unable to charge or discharge, resulting in the electric vehicle losing power and being unable to drive normally, potentially causing the vehicle to break down. This, in turn, affects the electric vehicle's range, reduces the vehicle's safety redundancy and reliability, and increases potential safety hazards during driving, reducing driving safety.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0061] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present application, and the embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary.

[0062] 1 to 15 , an electric vehicle control system 100 and an electric vehicle 200 according to an embodiment of the present application will be described below.

[0063] FIG1 is a schematic diagram of an electric vehicle control system 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG1 , the electric vehicle control system 100 of the present application mainly includes: a charging module 120 , a drive motor 130 , and a control module 140 .

[0064] In an embodiment, an electric vehicle includes multiple battery packs, which are connected in series. The multiple battery packs connected in series supply power to the drive system of the electric vehicle, thereby providing power for the electric vehicle. The multiple battery packs are connected together to provide power for the vehicle, which can achieve safety redundancy of the electric vehicle, increase the capacity of the power battery system, and improve the vehicle's endurance.

[0065] In an embodiment, the charging module 120 is respectively connected to multiple battery packs of the electric vehicle. Specifically, the charging module 120 is respectively connected to multiple battery packs. When some of the multiple battery packs of the power battery fail, the remaining battery packs without failure can be charged through the connected charging module 120, thereby continuing to provide power for the vehicle. For example, if a vehicle is driving on a highway and multiple or a single battery pack fails, the remaining battery packs without failure can continue to provide power for the vehicle through the connected charging module 120, which can avoid the problem of the vehicle being unable to provide power to the high-voltage system due to the disconnection of multiple or a single battery pack during driving, thereby causing the vehicle to break down.

[0066] In an embodiment, the drive motor 130 is connected to a plurality of battery packs to drive the electric vehicle, that is, to provide driving force for the electric vehicle.

[0067] In an embodiment, the control module 140 is respectively connected to the multiple battery packs, the drive motor 130, and the charging module 120, and is used to control the isolation of the faulty battery packs when some of the multiple battery packs fail, and to control the charging module 120 and / or the drive motor 130 to charge the remaining battery packs. Specifically, when a single battery pack among the multiple battery packs of the power battery fails, the control module 140 can control the isolation of the faulty battery pack. Since the charging module 120 is respectively connected to the multiple battery packs, the control module 140 can control the remaining non-faulty battery packs to be charged through the connected charging module 120, thereby continuing to provide power for the vehicle. This can avoid the problem that when some battery packs fail, the charging module 120 is unable to charge the remaining non-faulty battery packs, resulting in the remaining non-faulty battery packs being unable to provide power to the vehicle, thereby causing the vehicle to break down. For example, if a vehicle is traveling on a highway, when some of the multiple battery packs fail, the remaining healthy battery packs can be controlled to charge through the connected charging module 120, thereby continuing to provide power for the vehicle. This solves the problem that when some battery packs fail, other healthy battery packs cannot be charged and cannot work, ensuring the vehicle's endurance in a short period of time, reducing the risk of the vehicle breaking down, and improving the vehicle's safety redundancy performance and reliability. At the same time, it reduces the safety hazards caused by the vehicle breaking down during driving and improves driving safety.

[0068] Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, when some of the multiple battery packs of an electric vehicle fail, the failed battery packs are controlled to be isolated, and the charging module 120 and / or the drive motor 130 are controlled to charge the remaining battery packs. Thus, the present application adjusts the circuit structure of the electric vehicle's power system so that when some battery packs fail, other remaining battery packs can continue to charge without being affected, thereby solving the problem that when some battery packs fail, other remaining battery packs cannot be charged and cannot work, ensuring the vehicle's endurance in a short period of time, reducing the risk of the vehicle breaking down, improving the vehicle's safety redundancy performance and reliability, and reducing driving safety hazards, thereby improving the vehicle's driving safety.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present application, the control module 140 is further configured to: when some of the multiple battery packs fail, control the isolation of the failed battery packs, and control the remaining battery packs to supply power to the drive motor 130 .

[0070] In an embodiment, when some of the multiple battery packs fail, the control module 140 can control the isolation of the failed battery packs and control the remaining battery packs to power the drive motor 130, thereby ensuring that the vehicle can continue to travel, avoiding the vehicle from breaking down, and improving the vehicle's endurance and reliability. Specifically, the multiple battery packs are connected in series, and the control module 140 is connected to the multiple battery packs respectively. When some of the battery packs fail, the control module 140 isolates the failed battery packs and controls the remaining battery packs to power the drive motor 130, so that the drive motor 130 can continue to provide driving force for the vehicle, and then continue to drive the electric vehicle. This can avoid the problem of the vehicle breaking down due to the failure of some battery packs during driving. When some battery packs fail, the faulty battery packs are isolated to ensure that the remaining battery packs that are not faulty work normally, which can solve the vehicle's endurance problem in a short period of time.

[0071] In one embodiment of the present application, the control module 140 is further configured to: when none of the multiple battery packs are faulty, control power balancing among the multiple battery packs.

[0072] In an embodiment, when all battery packs in the electric vehicle control system 100 are fault-free, that is, when all battery packs are operating normally, charge balancing is performed between the multiple battery packs. For example, if there are two battery packs in the electric vehicle control system 100 and both battery packs are fault-free, if there is a discrepancy in charge between the two battery packs, the control module 140 can control charge balancing between the two battery packs, thereby extending the service life of each battery pack.

[0073] Thus, in the above-mentioned electric vehicle control system 100, when some of the multiple battery packs fail, the control module 140 controls the isolation of the failed battery packs, and controls the charging module 120 and / or the drive motor 130 to charge the remaining battery packs, and can control the remaining battery packs to supply power to the drive motor 130 to provide power to the vehicle. Thus, the present application adjusts the circuit structure of the electric vehicle's power system so that when some battery packs fail, the other remaining battery packs can continue to charge unaffected, thereby solving the problem that when some battery packs fail, the other remaining battery packs cannot be charged and cannot operate, ensuring the vehicle's short-term endurance, reducing the risk of the vehicle breaking down, improving the vehicle's safety redundancy and reliability, and reducing driving safety hazards, thereby improving the vehicle's driving safety. At the same time, it can also control the power balancing between the two battery packs, thereby increasing the service life of each battery pack.

The system includes: a first battery pack U1, a second battery pack U2, an AC charging unit 150, a DC charging unit 160, a switch tube unit 170, a first pre-charging unit 180, a second pre-charging unit 190, a high-voltage power load Y1 and a control unit (not shown in the figure).

[0075] The negative electrode of the high-voltage load Y1 is connected to the positive electrode of the AC charging unit 150. The positive electrode of the high-voltage load Y1 is connected to the positive electrode of the DC charging unit 160 via the first contactor K1, and the negative electrode of the AC charging unit 150 is connected to the negative electrode of the DC charging unit 160 via the second negative contactor F2. The positive electrode of the first battery pack U1 is connected to the positive electrode of the high-voltage load Y1 via the first positive contactor F3, and then to the positive electrode of the DC charging unit 160 via the first contactor K1. The positive electrode of the second battery pack U2 is connected to the positive electrode of the AC charging unit 150 via the second contactor K2, and the negative electrode of the second battery pack U2 is connected to the negative electrode of the DC charging unit 160 via the second negative contactor F2.

One end of the switch tube unit 170 is connected to the control unit (not shown in the figure), and the other end is connected to the drive motor 130. The other end of the drive motor 130 is connected to the positive electrode of the DC charging unit 160 through the fourth contactor K4, and the DC charging unit 160 is connected in parallel with the second capacitor C2.

[0078] Specifically, the electric vehicle control system 100 divides the power battery into two battery packs, namely the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2. The drive system will be powered by the full voltage of the entire power battery pack, while other high-voltage loads will be powered by a single battery pack, namely the first battery pack U1 or the second battery pack U2, depending on the specific situation during the vehicle startup process. The midpoint of the connecting line between the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 is denoted as the midpoint Y3 of the power battery connection line. An N line (e.g., a conductor or a neutral line) is added between the midpoint Y3 of the power battery connection line and the midpoint Y2 of the intersection of the three-phase inductance of the drive motor 130. In Figure 2, the N line is a line connecting the midpoint Y3 of the power battery connection line to the intersection Y2 of the three-phase inductance of the drive motor 130 via the fifth contactor K5. The addition of the N line ensures that if only a portion of the vehicle's battery pack fails, the control module 140 can quickly isolate the battery pack containing the faulty portion, thereby ensuring that the high-voltage load Y1 continues to operate. For example, if a vehicle is traveling on a highway and the first battery pack U1 fails, the control module 140 quickly isolates the first battery pack U1. The charging module 120 can continue to power the unfaulted second battery pack U2. At this point, the electric vehicle's power battery will power the second battery pack U2, and the drive motor 130 can continue to drive the electric vehicle, ensuring the vehicle's high-voltage load Y1 continues to operate. If the unfaulted second battery pack U2 is detected to be feeding power during driving, the unfaulted second battery pack U2 is charged using the N line and the drive motor 130. This prevents the vehicle from breaking down while driving, ensuring driving safety and battery life. If both battery packs, namely the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2, are intact and unfaulted, but the power levels are inconsistent, the system can store energy for the vehicle through the N line and the drive motor 130 to balance the power levels of the two battery packs, thereby improving the service life of each battery pack and the safety and reliability of the vehicle.

When each battery pack is not faulty, the control module controls the AC charging unit 150 or the DC charging unit 160 to charge the battery pack.

[0080] In an embodiment, as shown in FIG2 , multiple battery packs, such as a first battery pack U1 and a second battery pack U2, are configured.

The positive electrode of the second battery pack U2 is connected to the positive electrode of the AC charging unit 150 via a second contactor K2, while the negative electrode of the second battery pack U2 is connected to the negative electrode of the AC charging unit 150 via a first negative contactor F1. The negative electrode of the second battery pack U2 is also connected to the negative electrode of the DC charging unit 160 via first negative contactors F1 and second negative contactors F2. When neither battery pack is faulty, the control module controls either the AC charging unit 150 or the DC charging unit 160 to charge the battery pack, thereby improving the safety redundancy and reliability of the vehicle.

Control module 140 is connected to first positive contactor F3 and first negative contactor F1, respectively, to control their on / off state, isolating any faulty battery packs. The vehicle is powered by two battery packs. If a single battery pack fails, the remaining intact pack can continue to power the high-voltage system, preventing the vehicle from stalling and improving its range.

[0098] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG2 , the electric vehicle control system 100 further includes a first pre-charging unit 180 , which is connected in parallel to the first positive contactor F3 .

[0099] In the embodiment, as shown in FIG2 , the first pre-charging unit 180 is connected in parallel to both ends of the first positive contactor F3. Specifically, connecting the first pre-charging unit 180 in parallel to both ends of the third contactor K3 can serve as a pre-charging circuit and also protect the circuit, preventing the third contactor K3 from sticking or being damaged due to high current.

[0110] In one embodiment of the present application, in combination with Figures 3 to 5, the control unit is configured to: when the first battery pack U1 fails and the second battery pack U2 is not failed, control the first battery pack U1 to be isolated, and control the first negative contactor F1 to be closed, so as to charge the second battery pack U2 through the AC charging unit 150; or, when the second battery pack U2 fails and the first battery pack U1 is not failed, control the second battery pack U2 to be isolated, control the second contactor K2 and the third contactor K3 to be closed, control the upper bridge switch unit 171 to be opened, and control the lower bridge switch unit 172 to be closed, so as to charge the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the third inductor L3 through the AC charging unit 150; at the end of charging, control the upper bridge switch unit 171 to be closed, control the lower bridge switch unit 172 to be opened, control the second contactor K2 to be opened, and control the first positive contactor F3 and the third contactor K3 to be closed, so as to charge the first battery pack U1 through the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the third inductor L3.

[0111] In this embodiment, for AC charging, if the first battery pack U1 fails and the second battery pack U2 is not faulty, AC charging can be performed on the second battery pack U2. As shown in Figure 3, when the first battery pack U1 fails, the charging gun is connected to the AC charging unit 150. The control unit controls the first positive contactor F3 of the first battery pack U1 to open, isolating the first battery pack U1, and controls the first negative contactor F1 to close. The circuit is pre-charged via the second pre-charging unit 190. After the pre-charging is complete, the unfaulty second battery pack U2 is charged via the AC charging unit 150, with the current flow shown by the arrows in Figure 3. By adjusting the circuit structure to isolate the faulty battery pack and charge the unfaulty battery pack via the AC charging unit 150, the normal operation of the high-voltage system can be ensured.

Furthermore, in combination with Figure 5, the three-phase inductance in the drive motor 130 continues to charge the first battery pack U1, that is, the three-phase inductance in the drive motor 130, namely the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2 and the third inductor L3, is used to charge the first battery pack U1, and the current flow direction is shown by the arrow in Figure 5. By adjusting the circuit structure, the faulty battery pack is isolated, and the normal battery pack is charged through the AC charging unit 150 and the drive motor 130, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the high-voltage system.

[0113] In one embodiment of the present application, in combination with Figures 6 and 7, the control unit is used to: when the first battery pack U1 fails and the second battery pack U2 is not faulty, control the first battery pack U1 to be isolated, and control the first negative contactor F1, the second negative contactor F2, the third contactor K3 and the fourth contactor K4 to be closed, so as to charge the second battery pack U2 through the DC charging unit 160; or, when the second battery pack U2 fails and the first battery pack U1 is not faulty, control the second battery pack U2 to be isolated, control the first contactor K1, the first positive contactor F3, the third contactor K3 and the second negative contactor F2 to be closed, control the fourth contactor K4 to be disconnected, control the upper bridge switch unit 171 to be disconnected, and control at least one IGBT component in the lower bridge switch unit 172 to be closed, so as to charge the first battery pack U1 through the DC charging unit 160.

[0114] In this embodiment, for DC charging, when the first battery pack U1 fails and the second battery pack U2 is not faulty, the second battery pack U2 can be charged via the DC charging unit 160. As shown in Figure 6, the charging gun is connected to the charging port of the DC charging unit 160. The control unit controls the first positive contactor F3 to open to isolate the first battery pack U1, and controls the first negative contactor F1, the second negative contactor F2, the third contactor K3, and the fourth contactor K4 to close, thereby charging the second battery pack U2 via the DC charging unit 160. The current flow is shown by the arrows in Figure 6. By adjusting the circuit structure, the faulty battery pack is isolated, and the healthy battery pack is charged by the DC charging unit 160, which ensures the normal operation of the high-voltage system.

[0115] On the other hand, when the second battery pack U2 fails and the first battery pack U1 is not faulty, the first battery pack U1 can be charged via the DC charging unit 160. As shown in Figure 7, the charging gun is connected to the charging port of the DC charging unit 160. The control unit controls the first negative contactor F1 to open to isolate the second battery pack U2, and controls the first contactor K1, the second negative contactor F2, the first positive contactor F3, and the third contactor K3 to close, and controls the fourth contactor K4 to open. At the same time, the control unit controls the upper bridge switch unit 171 to open, that is, the first IGBT component Q1, the second IGBT component Q2, and the third IGBT component Q3 are disconnected, and controls at least one IGBT component (that is, the fourth IGBT component Q4 and / or the fifth IGBT component Q5 and / or the sixth IGBT component Q6) in the lower bridge switch unit 172 to close. In the example shown in Figure 7, the fifth IGBT assembly Q5 is closed, and the second inductor L2 of the drive motor 130 is precharged via the DC charging unit 160. After the precharge is complete, the first healthy battery pack U1 can be charged, with the current flow shown by the arrows in Figure 7. By adjusting the circuit structure, the faulty battery pack is isolated, and the healthy battery pack is charged via the DC charging unit 160, ensuring the normal operation of the high-voltage system.

[0116] In one embodiment of the present application, in combination with Figures 8-9, the control unit is used to: when the first battery pack U1 fails, control the isolation of the first battery pack U1, control the closing of the first negative contactor F1 and the fifth contactor K5, so as to supply power to the drive motor 130 through the second battery pack U2; or, when the second battery pack U2 fails, control the isolation of the second battery pack U2, control the closing of the first positive contactor F3 and the sixth contactor K6, so as to supply power to the drive motor 130 through the first battery pack U1.

[0117] In this embodiment, if the first battery pack U1 fails, the second battery pack U2 can continue to power the drive motor 130, allowing the electric vehicle to continue driving. As shown in Figure 8, where the arrows indicate the direction of current flow, when the first battery pack U1 fails, the control unit controls the first positive contactor F3 to open, isolating the first battery pack U1, and controls the first negative contactor F1 and the fifth contactor K5 to close, allowing the second battery pack U2 to power the drive motor 130, allowing the vehicle to continue driving, avoiding vehicle breakdown, and ensuring the battery pack's endurance.

[0118] On the other hand, if the second battery pack U2 fails, the first battery pack U1 can continue to power the drive motor 130, allowing the electric vehicle to continue driving. As shown in Figure 9, where the arrows indicate the direction of current flow, when the second battery pack U2 fails, the control unit controls the first negative contactor F1 to open, isolating the second battery pack U2, and controls the first positive contactor F3 and the sixth contactor K6 to close. This allows the first battery pack U1 to power the drive motor 130, allowing the vehicle to continue driving, avoiding the possibility of vehicle breakdown, and ensuring the battery pack's endurance.

[0119] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG8 , the control unit is configured to control the first positive contactor F3 to disconnect to isolate the first battery pack U1 . In other words, the control unit can control the on / off state of the first positive contactor F3 to isolate the faulty first battery pack U1 .

[0120] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG7 , the control unit is configured to control the first negative contactor F1 to disconnect to isolate the second battery pack U2 . Specifically, the control unit can control the on / off state of the first negative contactor F1 to isolate the faulty second battery pack U2 .

[0121] In one embodiment of the present application, the control unit is configured to: when both the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 are not faulty, control the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 with a higher charge to charge the second battery pack U2 with a lower charge to achieve charge balance.

[0122] In an embodiment, if both battery packs, i.e., the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2, are not faulty, but the power levels of the two battery packs are inconsistent, the system can store energy for the vehicle through the N line and the drive motor 130, that is, control the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 with a higher power level to charge the one with a lower power level, so that the power levels of the two battery packs are balanced, thereby improving the service life of each battery pack and the safety and reliability of the vehicle.

[0123] In one embodiment of the present application, in combination with Figures 10 and 11, the control unit is configured to: when the charge of the second battery pack U2 is greater than the charge of the first battery pack U1, control the first positive contactor F3 to be disconnected, control the first negative contactor F1 and the third contactor K3 to be closed, control the upper bridge switch unit 171 to be disconnected, and control the lower bridge switch unit 172 to be closed, so as to charge the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the third inductor L3 through the second battery pack U2; after the charging of the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the third inductor L3 is completed, control the first positive contactor F3 and the third contactor K3 to be closed, control the first negative contactor F1 to be disconnected, control the upper bridge switch unit 171 to be closed, and control the lower bridge switch unit 172 to be disconnected, so as to charge the first battery pack U1 through the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the third inductor L3, thereby achieving charge balance between the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2.

[0124] In this embodiment, when the charge level of the second battery pack U2 is greater than that of the first battery pack, in conjunction with FIG10 , the third contactor K3 and the first negative contactor F1 on the N line are controlled to close, and the control unit controls the upper bridge switch unit 171 to open, that is, the first IGBT component Q1, the second IGBT component Q2, and the third IGBT component Q3 are disconnected, and controls the lower bridge switch unit 172 to close, that is, the fourth IGBT component Q4, the fifth IGBT component Q5, and the sixth IGBT component Q6 are closed. As a result, the three-phase inductors in the drive motor 130 are charged and stored via the second battery pack U2, with the current flow direction shown by the arrows in FIG10 . Furthermore, FIG11 illustrates the process of the three-phase inductors in the drive motor 130 charging the first battery pack U1 by freewheeling, that is, the first battery pack U1 is charged by the energy stored in the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the third inductor L3, with the current flow direction shown by the arrows in FIG11 . Thus, the second battery pack U2 can charge the first battery pack U1, thereby achieving charge balance between the first and second battery packs U1 and U2. When the charge levels of the first and second battery packs U1 and U2 are inconsistent, multiple charge and discharge cycles of the three-phase inductance in the drive motor 130 can achieve charge balance between the first and second battery packs U1 and U2, thereby achieving charge balance between the battery packs and improving the battery pack lifespan.

[0125] In one embodiment of the present application, in combination with Figures 12 and 13, the control unit is configured to: when the charge of the first battery pack U1 is greater than the charge of the second battery pack U2, control the first positive contactor F3, the first contactor K1, the fourth contactor K4, and the sixth contactor K6 to close, control the first negative contactor F1 to open, control the upper bridge switch unit 171 to open, and control the lower bridge switch unit 172 to close, so as to charge the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the third inductor L3 through the first battery pack U1; after the charging of the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the third inductor L3 is completed, control the first positive contactor F3 to open, control the first negative contactor F1, the third contactor K3, the fifth contactor K5, and the sixth contactor K6 to close, control the upper bridge switch unit 171 to close, and control the lower bridge switch unit 172 to open, so as to charge the second battery pack U2 through the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the third inductor L3.

[0126] In an embodiment, when the charge of the first battery pack U1 is greater than the charge of the second battery pack U2, as shown in FIG12 , the first positive contactor F3, the first contactor K1, the fourth contactor K4 and the sixth contactor K6 can be controlled to close, the first negative contactor F1 can be controlled to disconnect, the upper bridge switch unit 171 can be controlled to disconnect, that is, the first IGBT component Q1, the second IGBT component Q2 and the third IGBT component Q3 are disconnected, and the lower bridge switch unit 172 can be controlled to close, that is, the fourth IGBT component Q4, the fifth IGBT component Q5 and the sixth IGBT component Q6 are closed, so as to charge and store energy in the three-phase inductance in the drive motor 130 through the first battery pack U1, and the current flow direction is shown by the arrows in FIG12 .

[0127] As shown in Figure 13, after charging of the first, second, and third inductors L1, L2, and L3 is complete, the first positive contactor F3 is controlled to open, the first negative contactor F1, the third contactor K3, the fifth contactor K5, and the sixth contactor K6 are controlled to close, and the upper bridge switch unit 171 is controlled to close, that is, the first, second, and third IGBT assemblies Q1, Q2, and Q3 are closed. The lower bridge switch unit 172 is controlled to open, that is, the fourth, fifth, and sixth IGBT assemblies Q4, Q5, and Q6 are opened. This illustrates the charging process of the three-phase inductor in the drive motor 130 to charge the second battery pack U2. Specifically, the energy stored in the first, second, and third inductors L1, L2, and L3 is used to charge the second battery pack U2, with the current flow direction shown by the arrows in Figure 13. As a result, the first battery pack U1 can charge the second battery pack 2, thereby achieving energy balance between the first and second battery packs U1 and U2. When the charge levels of the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 are inconsistent, multiple charge and discharge processes of the three-phase inductance in the drive motor 130 can achieve charge balance between the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2, thereby achieving charge balance between the battery packs and improving the service life of the battery packs.

[0128] In one embodiment of the present application, in combination with Figures 10 and 14, before controlling the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 with a higher charge to charge the one with a lower charge, the control unit is further used to: control the charging module 120 to charge the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 with a higher charge until the one with a higher charge in the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 is fully charged, and the current flow direction is shown by the arrow in Figure 14.

[0129] In this embodiment, as shown in conjunction with Figures 10 and 14 , before achieving energy balancing between the battery packs, the control unit controls the first negative contactor F1 and the second contactor K2 to close, allowing the second battery pack U2 to be charged via the AC charging unit 150 until the second battery pack U2 is fully charged. Then, energy balancing between the battery packs is performed. Specifically, after the second battery pack U2 is fully charged, the control unit controls the third contactor K3 on the N line and the first negative contactor F1 to close. The control unit controls the upper bridge switch unit 171 to open, disconnecting the first, second, and third IGBT assemblies Q1, Q2, and Q3, and controls the lower bridge switch unit 172 to close, closing the fourth, fifth, and sixth IGBT assemblies Q4, Q5, and Q6. This allows the second battery pack U2 to charge the three-phase inductors in the drive motor 130 and store energy. Furthermore, the energy stored in the first, second, and third inductors L1, L2, and L3 charges the first battery pack U1. This allows the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 to charge and discharge each other, thereby achieving charge balance between the first and second battery packs U1 and U2. When the charge levels of the first and second battery packs U1 and U2 are inconsistent, multiple charge and discharge cycles of the three-phase inductance in the drive motor 130 can be used to balance the charge between the first and second battery packs U1 and U2, thereby achieving charge balance between the battery packs and improving the battery pack lifespan. Furthermore, charging the second battery pack U2 before performing charge balancing, so that the second battery pack U2 is fully charged before performing charge balancing, improves the efficiency and effectiveness of charge balancing.

[0130] In a specific embodiment, the charge balance between the battery packs can also be achieved by discharging the first battery pack U1 and charging the second battery pack U2. The implementation principle is similar to the above-mentioned principle of discharging the second battery pack U2 and charging the first battery pack U1, and will not be listed here one by one.

[0131] In a specific embodiment, while the first battery pack U1 and the second battery pack U2 are charged and discharged to achieve charge balance between them, each battery pack can also be heated. Specifically, as shown in Figures 12 and 13, in the positive half-cycle of the fundamental wave cycle, when the upper bridge switch unit 171 is disconnected and the lower bridge switch unit 172 is closed, the first battery pack U1 discharges, and the current charges the three-phase inductor of the drive motor 130 through the IGBT of the lower bridge switch unit 172 to store energy. When the upper bridge switch unit 171 is closed and the lower bridge switch unit 172 is disconnected, the three-phase inductor continues to flow to charge the second battery pack U2, forming a loop through the diodes of each IGBT component of the upper bridge switch unit 171. As shown in Figures 10 and 11, in the negative half cycle of the fundamental cycle, when the lower bridge switch unit 172 is closed and the upper bridge switch unit 171 is disconnected, the second battery pack U2 discharges to the three-phase inductor, forming a loop through the IGBT of the lower bridge switch unit 172. When the upper bridge switch unit 171 is closed and the lower bridge switch unit 172 is disconnected, the three-phase inductor continues to flow and charges the first battery pack U1 through the diodes of each IGBT component of the upper bridge switch unit 171. Therefore, the battery pack can be heated by charging and discharging the two battery packs to achieve the purpose of heating the battery pack.

[0132] In general, the electric vehicle control system 100 of the embodiment of the present application includes multiple battery packs connected in series. When some of the multiple battery packs fail, the control module 140 controls the isolation of the failed battery packs and controls the charging module 120 and / or the drive motor 130 to charge the remaining battery packs. The control module 140 can also control the remaining battery packs to supply power to the drive motor 130 to provide power to the vehicle. Thus, the present application adjusts the circuit structure of the electric vehicle's power system so that when some battery packs fail, the remaining remaining battery packs can continue to charge unaffected. This solves the problem of other remaining battery packs being unable to charge and operate when some battery packs fail, ensuring the vehicle's short-term endurance, reducing the risk of vehicle breakdown, improving the vehicle's safety redundancy and reliability, and reducing driving safety hazards, thereby improving the vehicle's driving safety. At the same time, the battery packs can also be controlled to balance the charge between the two battery packs, thereby increasing the service life of each battery pack.

As shown in FIG15 , the electric vehicle 200 of the present application includes the electric vehicle control system 100 as described in any of the above embodiments of the present application.

[0135] According to an embodiment of the present application, the electric vehicle 200 includes multiple battery packs connected in series. When some of the multiple battery packs fail, the control module 140 controls the isolation of the failed battery packs and controls the charging module 120 and / or the drive motor 130 to charge the remaining battery packs. The control module 140 can also control the remaining battery packs to supply power to the drive motor 130 to provide power to the vehicle. Thus, the present application adjusts the circuit structure of the power system of the electric vehicle 200 so that when some battery packs fail, the remaining battery packs can continue to charge unaffected, thereby solving the problem of other remaining battery packs being unable to charge and operate when some battery packs fail. This ensures the vehicle's short-term endurance, reduces the risk of vehicle breakdown, improves the vehicle's safety redundancy and reliability, and reduces potential safety hazards during driving, thereby improving the vehicle's driving safety. At the same time, the battery packs can also be controlled to balance the charge between the two battery packs, thereby increasing the service life of each battery pack.
