In the present application, in order to balance the electric quantity between the single batteries, the electric quantity transmission between the single batteries is considered, and the difference between the maximum state of charge value and the minimum state of charge value of the single batteries in the battery module is used as one of the standards for whether the battery module enters the electric quantity balancing mode.
Specifically, a maximum state of charge value and a minimum state of charge value are determined from the calculated state of charge values of the single batteries, wherein the electric quantity of the single battery corresponding to the maximum state of charge value is the largest, and the electric quantity of the single battery corresponding to the minimum state of charge value is the smallest.

Step S340, when it is determined that the difference is greater than the preset threshold and the operating state of each single battery meets the first trigger condition, controlling the enable of the equalization switch of one part of the single batteries first, and then controlling the enable of the equalization switch of another part of the single batteries to complete the electric quantity equalization of the battery module.
And comparing the obtained difference with a preset threshold, wherein if the preset threshold is set to be 1%, if the difference is greater than the preset threshold, it is indicated that the electric quantity difference between the single batteries is too large, and electric quantity balancing is very likely to be required, further judging whether the running states of the single batteries meet a first trigger condition, if so, firstly controlling the equalization switches of one part of the single batteries to enable, and then controlling the equalization switches of the other part of the single batteries to enable, so as to complete the electric quantity balancing of the battery module.

Specifically, the judgment can be performed by the difference between the maximum state of charge value and the minimum state of charge value and the operating state of each single battery.
If the difference between the maximum state of charge value and the minimum state of charge value is smaller than or equal to the preset threshold, it is indicated that the electric quantity difference of each single battery is not large, and the difference is determined to meet a second trigger condition, namely, the battery module is controlled to exit the electric quantity balancing mode.
