As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the present invention provides a street lamp 100 with a charging post function, which includes a lamp holder 110, an illumination lamp 120 disposed at a terminal 111 of the lamp holder, and a charging post 130 disposed at a lower portion of the lamp holder 110; the charging pile 130 is provided with a power module 131, an ac-to-dc module 132 connected to the power module 131, a charging module 133 connected to the power module 131, an illumination lamp 120 connected to the ac-to-dc module 132, and a charging head 140 connected to the charging module 133. According to the invention, the functions of the charging pile and the street lamp are integrated, so that the occupied space of the charging pile is reduced, and meanwhile, after the integration, the overall cost is reduced, so that the cost for laying the charging pile in a large area is reduced, and the charging pile occupation ratio is increased.
The charging pile 130 of the invention can meet the following requirements:
(1) rated output power: 15kW, the front stage rectifier needs to reach 16 kW;
(2) input voltage: 304-456 VAC;

Correspondingly, the charging module 133 includes a pre-stage converter and a post-stage converter. In order to realize power factor correction and reduce harmonic content, and a charging pile does not need reverse feedback of energy, the design requirement can be met as long as unidirectional circulation of the energy is met, so a VIENNA rectifier is adopted in the preceding stage; the rear stage adopts a scheme of two paths of three-level half-bridge LLC topology interleaving parallel connection to realize voltage-stabilizing output and isolation functions, and two-stage conversion is realizedThe chemists communicate through SCI to communicate and exchange data.
