The present disclosure relates to the technical field of batteries, and specifically, to a battery system of a vehicle, a charging and discharging method, and a vehicle.
In recent years, the development of new energy vehicles is vigorously promoted, which also greatly drives the development of power batteries. Therefore, safety of power batteries is becoming more important. In order to ensure the safety of the power batteries during use and after-sales maintenance, manual service disconnect (MSD) has become a mainstream configuration of the power batteries.
With the popularity of electric vehicles, a passenger vehicle gradually began to use a battery system of a high-voltage platform (for example, 800 V platform). However, there are two specifications of charging piles on the market (for example, 400 V low-voltage platform and 800 V high-voltage platform). As a result, an electric vehicle with a battery of the high-voltage platform cannot be charged by a low-voltage charging pile. This reduces convenience of the vehicle, and cannot meet a use demand of a user, resulting in a decline of product competitiveness.
At present, when an internal local fault (such as aging of a unit cell, overvoltage, or undervoltage) occurs on the battery system of the passenger vehicle, for the safety of the vehicle and a driver, the system cannot be discharged, resulting in loss of power or breakdown of the vehicle. In this case, only situ waiting for rescue or towing is feasible, which reduces the safety of the vehicle and cannot meet the use demand of the user, resulting in the decline of product competitiveness.
When a high-voltage battery system (for example, the 800 V platform) is used on the passenger vehicle, but a power-driven device uses a low-voltage platform (for example, the 400 V platform), discharging of a partial voltage (for example, 400 V) needs to be performed.
At present, other similar inventions for realizing switching between different voltage platforms adopt a method for turning on and off a relay, a contactor, or other power relays, resulting in a risk of an internal short circuit.
Therefore, it is urgent to propose a battery system of a vehicle, a charging and discharging method, and a vehicle, to switch a battery system to a fault-free low-voltage mode in case of a local battery fault, such that a battery can output partial power to continue to drive the vehicle, and perform charging or discharging based on different electricity or charging demands.

For example, as shown in
When an external 800 V high-voltage charging pile is available for the system, the first inter-battery switch 11 is closed on the second outgoing line terminal 113, the second inter-battery switch 12 is closed on the first outgoing line terminal 112, the first relay 13 and the second relay 14 are closed, and the third relay 15, the fourth relay 16, the fifth relay 21, and the sixth relay 22 are opened. In this case, the system is equivalently composed of the first battery pack 17 and the second battery pack 18 that are connected in series, and a total voltage is equivalent to a sum of the voltages of the first battery pack 17 and the second battery pack 18, namely, 800 V. In this case, the voltages of the battery packs match a voltage of the external charging pile, and a charging demand can be met. In this case, if the third relay 15, the fourth relay 16, the first inter-battery switch 11, and the second inter-battery switch 12 run abnormally, no internal short circuit is caused to the system.
When an external 400 V low-voltage charging pile is available for the system, the first inter-battery switch 11 is closed on the first outgoing line terminal 112, the second inter-battery switch 12 is closed on the second outgoing line terminal 113, and the first relay 13, the second relay 14, the third relay 15, the fourth relay 16, the fifth relay 21, and the sixth relay 22 are closed. This is equivalent to that the two battery packs of a low-voltage platform are connected in parallel, and the total voltage is equal to the voltage of each battery pack, namely, 400 V. In this case, the voltage of the battery pack matches a voltage of the external charging pile, and a charging demand can be met. In this case, if the third relay 15, the fourth relay 16, the first inter-battery switch 11, and the second inter-battery switch 12 run abnormally, no internal short circuit is caused to the system.
When the system needs to be discharged in a mode of a high-voltage platform, the first inter-battery switch 11 is closed on the second outgoing line terminal 113, the second inter-battery switch 12 is closed on the first outgoing line terminal 112, the first relay 13 and the second relay 14 are closed, and the third relay 15 and the fourth relay 16 are opened. In this case, the system is equivalently composed of the first battery pack 17 and the second battery pack 18 that are connected in series, and the total voltage is equivalent to the sum of the voltages of the first battery pack 17 and the second battery pack 18, namely, 800 V. In this case, if the third relay 15 and the fourth relay 16 are abnormally closed, the system is not affected.
When an external low-voltage discharging voltage available for the system is 400 V, the first inter-battery switch 11 is closed on the first outgoing line terminal 112, the second inter-battery switch 12 is closed on the second outgoing line terminal 113, and the first relay 13, the second relay 14, the third relay 15, and the fourth relay 16 are closed. This is equivalent to that the two battery packs of the low-voltage platform are connected in parallel, and the total voltage is equal to the voltage of each battery pack, namely, 400 V. In addition, the voltage of the battery pack matches a voltage of an external low-voltage power-driven device, and a discharging demand can be met.
When an internal problem such as a local insulation problem or a cell problem occurs on a battery pack, if it is determined by the control unit that the problem occurs on the first battery pack 17 or the second battery pack 18, the system can be correspondingly converted into a low-voltage 400 V platform in the protective charging or discharging mode.
If the problem occurs on the first battery pack 17, the first inter-battery switch 11 is opened or closed on the second outgoing line terminal 113, the second inter-battery switch 12 is closed on the second outgoing line terminal 113, the second relay 14 and the fourth relay 16 are closed, and the first relay 13 and the third relay 15 are opened. Therefore, the system can be charged and discharged by the second battery pack 18.
Based on the above embodiments, in an embodiment of this specification, the inter-battery switch includes the first inter-battery switch 11 and the second inter-battery switch 12, and both the first inter-battery switch 11 and the second inter-battery switch 12 are SPDT switches; and before the controlling opening or closing of the inter-battery switch based on received charging and discharging parameter information and a working status, such that the battery pack is charged or discharged in one of a high-voltage charging or discharging mode, a low-voltage charging or discharging mode, and a protective charging or discharging mode, the method further includes:
Based on the above embodiments, in an embodiment of this specification, the working status information includes a fault status message, and the charging and discharging parameter information includes a charging pile recognition message; and
Based on the above embodiments, in an embodiment of this specification,
Based on the above embodiments, in an embodiment of this specification,
For example, when a battery system of a vehicle is provided with the first inter-battery switch 11, the second inter-battery switch 12, the first battery pack 17, the second battery pack 18, the first relay 13, the second relay 14, the fifth relay 21, the sixth relay 22, the charging interface, the discharging interface, and the control unit, the control unit can monitor working statuses of each switch, relay, and battery pack.
When the vehicle is charged, after the control unit establishes a physical connection to a charging pile, power can be supplied to the control unit at a low voltage to start the control unit.
After it is determined that insulation detection is normal, the charging pile regularly sends a charger handshake message (CHM) to the control unit every 250 ms. The message may carry a communication protocol version number of the charging pile. After receiving the CHM, the control unit regularly sends a BMS handshake message (BHM) to the charging pile every 250 ms. The message carries a maximum allowable total charging voltage of the control unit. The maximum allowable total charging voltage is a rated voltage of the energy storage apparatus 1.
When the maximum allowable total charging voltage (800 V) is less than or equal to an output voltage (400 V) of the charging pile, a handshake is completed.
The control unit can control opening or closing of the first inter-battery switch 11, the second inter-battery switch 12, the first battery pack 17, the second battery pack 18, the first relay 13, the second relay 14, the fifth relay 21, and the sixth relay 22 based on the output voltage of the charging pile, working status information of the first battery pack 17 and the second battery pack 18, and a position of each relay or inter-battery switch, to realize low-voltage charging based on the output voltage of the charging pile. In this case, the first inter-battery switch 11 is closed on the first outgoing line terminal 112, the second inter-battery switch 12 is closed on the second outgoing line terminal 113, the first relay 13 and the second relay 14 are closed, and the fifth relay 21 and the sixth relay 22 are closed.
During charging, the charging pile can regularly send a charging pile recognition message to the control unit every 250 ms to confirm that a communication link between the charging pile and the control unit is correct. The charging pile recognition message may carry the communication protocol version number of the charging pile.
After receiving the charging pile recognition message, the control unit can regularly send a BRM to the charging pile every 250 ms.
After detecting that each battery pack or the energy storage apparatus 1 is completely charged, the control unit controls the fifth relay 21 and/or the sixth relay 22 to be opened to complete charging.
In a discharging process, there is no handshake between the charging pile and the control unit, and other procedures are the same. Therefore, details are not provided herein again.
