Some embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments and features of the embodiments may be combined with each other without conflict.
Referring to fig. 1, a schematic structure of a battery system 10 according to a preferred embodiment of the invention is shown. In the embodiment of the invention, the battery system 10 includes a first housing 11, a second housing 12, and a battery unit 13. The first housing 11 cooperates with the second housing 12 to form a closed space, and the battery unit 13 is disposed in the closed space to realize the power supply function of the battery system 10.
In this embodiment, the first housing 11 cooperates with the second housing 12 to form a closed space that is isolated from the outside, and the closed space is not in gas exchange with the outside. Specifically, the sealing level of the enclosed space may be IP67 level or a sealing level higher than IP67 level. In view of the production cost and difficulty of the manufacturing process of the battery system 10, in the present embodiment, it is preferable to use a sealed space formed by the first case 11 and the second case 12 having a sealing level conforming to the IP67 level to accommodate the battery cells 13.
In this embodiment, the battery unit 13 is a core component for implementing the power supply function of the battery system 10, and the battery unit 13 may include a battery module, an electrical component (such as a relay) for implementing the power supply function in cooperation with the battery module, and a thermal management device for protecting the battery module. The battery module is matched with the electric component and the thermal management device to realize the power supply function of the battery system 10.
It will be understood, of course, that the above-mentioned battery module, electrical component and thermal management device are only one implementation of the battery unit 13 provided by the embodiment of the present invention, and the present invention may also include more implementations of the battery unit 13.
Referring to fig. 2, a block diagram of a battery system instability detection apparatus 100 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown. The battery system instability detection device 100 is applied to the battery system 10 to detect the instability of the battery system 10 in real time, and send an alarm prompt when the battery system 10 is in an unstable state, so as to avoid serious loss. In the embodiment of the present invention, the battery system instability detection apparatus 100 includes an air pressure acquisition device 110 for acquiring air pressure data and an alarm device 120 for sending an alarm prompt. The air pressure acquisition device 110 and the alarm device 120 are in communication connection with each other to realize data transmission or interaction. In this embodiment, the communication connection between the air pressure acquisition device 110 and the alarm device 120 may be a wired communication connection connected through a wired network, or may be a wireless communication connection connected through a wireless network.
Specifically, referring to fig. 1 again, in this embodiment, the air pressure collecting device 110 is disposed in a closed space formed by the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 in the battery system 10, the alarm device 120 is disposed outside the closed space, and the air pressure collecting device 110 and the alarm device 120 establish communication connection through a wired network or a wireless network.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the air pressure collecting device 110 includes an air pressure collecting box 111, a bi-directional ventilation valve 112, a first air pressure collector 113 and a second air pressure collector 114. The air pressure collecting box 111 is disposed in the closed space, and the bidirectional ventilation valve 112 is disposed on one box body side surface of the air pressure collecting box 111, so that the air pressure collecting box 111 performs air exchange through the bidirectional ventilation valve 112. The first air pressure collector 113 is disposed in the air pressure collecting box 111, the second air pressure collector 114 is disposed outside the air pressure collecting box 111 and is located in the closed space, the first air pressure collector 113 and the second air pressure collector 114 collect air pressure data in the air pressure collecting box 111 and air pressure data in the closed space outside the air pressure collecting box 111 respectively, and send the collected air pressure data to the alarm device 120.
In this embodiment, the air pressure collecting box 111 is a closed cavity structure, and the air pressure collecting box 111 performs air exchange with the closed space outside the air pressure collecting box 111 only through the bidirectional ventilation valve 112. Specifically, a closed cavity is disposed in the air pressure collecting box 111, and the closed cavity is isolated from the outside and is communicated with the closed space outside the air pressure collecting box 111 only through the bidirectional ventilation valve 112.
In this embodiment, the air pressure collecting box 111 may be fixed in the closed space by being fixed to the inner wall of the first housing 11 or the inner wall of the second housing 12. Specifically, the air pressure collecting box 111 may be integrally formed with the first housing 11 or the second housing 12, so that the air pressure collecting box 111 is fixed on the inner wall of the first housing 11 or the inner wall of the second housing 12; the air pressure collecting box 111 is independent of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, and the air pressure collecting box 111 may be fixed on the inner wall of the first housing 11 or the inner wall of the second housing 12 by means of fastening, adhesion, etc.
In this embodiment, the bi-directional ventilation valve 112 performs gas exchange at a certain rate. Specifically, the gas exchange rate of the bi-directional gas permeable valve 112 when the battery system 10 is in a normal state is equal to the gas exchange rate of the bi-directional gas permeable valve 112 when the battery system 10 is in a unstable state, wherein the normal state refers to a state when the battery system 10 is operating normally, and the unstable state refers to a state when the battery unit 13 in the battery system 10 is subject to an accident (such as a fire of a battery module in the battery unit 13, a malfunction of an electrical component, or damage of a thermal management device), thereby causing the battery system 10 to become unstable, and the gas pressure value in the closed space increases sharply, which is very liable to cause a fire and cause serious loss.
In this embodiment, the first air pressure collector 113 is disposed in the closed cavity in the air pressure collecting box 111, and the second air pressure collector 114 is disposed in the closed space outside the air pressure collecting box 111, so that the first air pressure collector 113 and the second air pressure collector 114 collect the air pressure data in the air pressure collecting box 111 and the air pressure data in the closed space outside the air pressure collecting box 111 respectively.
In this embodiment, the distance between the first air pressure collector 113 and the second air pressure collector 114 is smaller than a preset distance, where the preset distance is a set distance that enables the air pressure data collected by the first air pressure collector 113 to be close to the air pressure data collected by the second air pressure collector 114. Specifically, when the battery system 10 is in a normal state, the distance between the first air pressure collector 113 and the second air pressure collector 114 is smaller than the preset distance, so that the air pressure data collected by the first air pressure collector 113 and the air pressure data collected by the second air pressure collector 114 tend to be consistent. When the battery system 10 is in a destabilizing state, because the rate of gas exchange performed by the bidirectional ventilation valve 112 is fixed, the gas pressures inside and outside the gas pressure collecting box 111 cannot be balanced in time, and compared with the gas pressure data collected by the first gas pressure collector 113 when the battery system 10 is in a destabilizing state and the gas pressure data collected by the first gas pressure collector 113 when the battery system 10 is in a normal state, the gas pressure data in the gas pressure collecting box 111 has a very small change rate, but the gas pressure data collected by the second gas pressure collector 114 correspondingly increases sharply due to the sharply increased temperature in the closed space, and the absolute value of the difference value between the gas pressure data in the corresponding gas pressure collecting box 111 and the gas pressure data outside the gas pressure collecting box 111 correspondingly increases sharply, so that the gas pressure data collected by the first gas pressure collector 113 reaches the standard of alarming by the alarming device 120 at a faster speed, thereby improving the sensitivity of the destabilizing detection of the battery system.
Referring to fig. 3, a block diagram of a first air pressure collector 113 according to a preferred embodiment of the invention is shown. In this embodiment, the first air pressure collector 113 includes an air pressure sensor 210 for collecting air pressure data and a data transmission unit 220 for transmitting data. The data transmission unit 220 is electrically connected to the air pressure sensor 210, so as to transmit the air pressure data collected by the air pressure sensor 210 to the alarm device 120. In this embodiment, the first air pressure collector 113 and the second air pressure collector 114 belong to the same air pressure collector, and the second air pressure collector 114 also includes the air pressure sensor 210 and the data transmission unit 220.
In this embodiment, the air pressure sensor 210 may be a pressure sensor, and the data transmission unit 220 may include a wired data transmission module and a wireless data transmission module. The data transmission unit 220 may send the air pressure data collected by the air pressure sensor 210 to the alarm device 120 through a wired data transmission module connected with the alarm device 120 in a wired communication manner, and the data transmission unit 220 may also send the air pressure data collected by the air pressure sensor 210 to the alarm device 120 through a wireless data transmission module connected with the alarm device 120 in a wireless communication manner, where specific data transmission manners may be set differently according to requirements.
In this embodiment, the alarm device 120 receives the air pressure data in the air pressure collecting box 111 collected by the first air pressure collector 113 and the air pressure data in the airtight space outside the air pressure collecting box 111 collected by the second air pressure collector 114, determines whether the battery system 10 is unstable according to the two corresponding sets of air pressure data, and alarms when the battery system 10 is determined to be in an unstable state, so as to realize the detection of the instability of the battery system 10.
Specifically, please refer to fig. 4, which is a block diagram of the alarm device 120 shown in fig. 2. In the embodiment of the present invention, the alarm device 120 includes a data receiving unit 121 for receiving the air pressure data sent by the first air pressure collector 113 and the second air pressure collector 114, a data processing unit 122 for processing the air pressure data, and an alarm unit 123 for sending an alarm prompt.
In this embodiment, the data processing unit 122 is electrically connected to the data receiving unit 121, so as to process the air pressure data received by the data receiving unit 121, and determine whether the battery system 10 is in a unstable state according to the result obtained by the processing.
In this embodiment, the alarm unit 123 is electrically connected to the data processing unit 122, so as to send an alarm prompt when the data processing unit 122 determines that the battery system 10 is in a unstable state, where the alarm unit 123 may include an alarm generator.
In this embodiment, the alarm device 120 may further include a memory 124. The memory 124 may store the air pressure data sent by the first air pressure collector 113 and the second air pressure collector 114, or may store a software function module and a computer program required by the data processing unit 122 to process the air pressure data, and determine whether the battery system 10 is in a unstable state according to a result obtained by the processing.

The battery system instability detection method is applied to the battery system instability detection apparatus 100 described above, and the specific flow and steps of the battery system instability detection method shown in fig. 5 are described in detail below.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the method for detecting instability of a battery system may include the steps of:

In this embodiment, the data receiving unit 121 in the alarm device 120 is respectively connected to the data transmitting unit 220 in the first air pressure collector 113 and the data transmitting unit 220 in the second air pressure collector 114 in a communication manner, so as to receive the air pressure data in the air pressure collection box 111 collected by the first air pressure collector 113 and the air pressure data in the air pressure collection box 111 outside the air pressure collection box 111 collected by the second air pressure collector 114. The data processing unit 122 in the alarm device 120 processes the two sets of air pressure data received by the data receiving unit 121, and determines whether the battery system 10 is in a unstable state according to the result of the processing.
Specifically, please refer to fig. 6, which is a flowchart illustrating the sub-steps included in step S320 in fig. 5. In an embodiment of the present invention, the step S320 may include:
in sub-step S321, the air pressure data in the air pressure collection box 111 received by the alarm device 120 is subtracted from the air pressure data in the corresponding airtight space outside the air pressure collection box 111, so as to obtain the absolute value of the corresponding air pressure difference.
In this embodiment, the data processing unit 122 performs subtraction operation on the air pressure data in the air pressure collecting box 111 received by the data receiving unit 121 and two sets of air pressure data corresponding to the air pressure data in the airtight space outside the air pressure collecting box 111 to obtain a corresponding air pressure difference value, and then performs absolute value operation on the air pressure difference value to obtain an absolute value of the corresponding air pressure difference value.
Substep S322, comparing the absolute value of the air pressure difference with the preset air pressure value stored in the alarm device 120, and determining whether the battery system 10 is in a unstable state according to the comparison result.
In this embodiment, the memory 124 in the alarm device 120 may also store a preset air pressure value for determining whether the battery system 10 is in a unstable state. The preset air pressure value is greater than the absolute value of the maximum air pressure difference between the inside and the outside of the air pressure collection box 111 corresponding to the normal state of the battery system 10, and is smaller than the absolute value of the minimum air pressure difference between the inside and the outside of the air pressure collection box 111 corresponding to the unstable state of the battery system 10.
Specifically, please refer to fig. 7, which is a flowchart illustrating the sub-steps included in step S322 in fig. 6. In an embodiment of the present invention, the substep S322 may include:
substep S3221, when the absolute value of the air pressure difference value is smaller than the preset air pressure value, it is determined that the battery system 10 is in the normal state.
In this embodiment, when the battery system 10 is in a normal state, the bi-directional ventilation valve 112 may enable the air pressure collecting box 111 to exchange air with the air pressure collecting box 111 external sealing space, balance air pressures inside and outside the air pressure collecting box 111, and the air pressure data in the air pressure collecting box 111 external sealing space will tend to be consistent, and the absolute value of the corresponding air pressure difference will be smaller than the preset air pressure value. Therefore, when the absolute value of the air pressure difference value corresponding to the air pressure data collected by the air pressure collecting device 110 is smaller than the preset air pressure value, it may be determined that the battery system 10 is in a normal state.
Substep S3222, when the absolute value of the air pressure difference value is greater than the preset air pressure value, it is determined that the battery system 10 is in a unstable state.
In the present embodiment, when the battery system 10 is in a unstable state, the temperature in the closed space increases sharply, and the air pressure data of the closed space outside the air pressure collecting container 111 increases sharply accordingly. Because the air exchange rate of the bi-directional ventilation valve 112 is fixed, the air pressures inside and outside the air pressure collection box 111 cannot be balanced in time, and the air pressure data of the air pressure collection box 111 when the battery system 10 is in a unstable state is very small compared with the air pressure data of the air pressure collection box 111 when the battery system 10 is in a normal state, the air pressure data in the air pressure collection box 111 has very small change, and the absolute value of the corresponding air pressure difference value is larger than the preset air pressure value. Therefore, when the absolute value of the air pressure difference value corresponding to the air pressure data collected by the air pressure collecting device 110 is greater than the preset air pressure value, it may be determined that the battery system 10 is in a unstable state.
In step S330, when the alarm device 120 determines that the battery system 10 is in a unstable state, the alarm device 120 generates an alarm signal and sends out an alarm prompt to implement the detection of the instability of the battery system 10.
In the present embodiment, when the data processing unit 122 in the alarm device 120 determines that the battery system 10 is in a destabilizing system, the data processing unit 122 generates an alarm signal and sends the alarm signal to the alarm unit 123 in the alarm device 120. After receiving the alarm signal, the alarm unit 123 correspondingly sends out an alarm prompt to realize the real-time instability detection of the battery system 10, so as to avoid serious loss.
Fig. 8 is a schematic flow chart of a method for detecting instability of a battery system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. In an embodiment of the present invention, the method for detecting instability of a battery system may further include:
step S309, a preset air pressure value is set and stored in the alarm device 120.
In this embodiment, the preset air pressure value may be set at the alarm device 120 by a user or a manufacturer of the battery system instability detection apparatus 100, and stored in the memory 124.
