Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below, by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings.
An apparatus, a method, a charging system, and a vehicle for charging according to embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to fig. 1 to 5.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural view of an apparatus for charging according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the apparatus 100 for charging includes: a charging input interface 101, a charging output interface 102, an instruction receiving module 103, a signal processing module 104, a timing control module 105, and a control response module 106.
Wherein the charging input interface 101 is connected with a power supply device. The power supply device can be an ac power supply device or a dc power supply device, and the structure and the size of the charging input interface 101 are adjustable, so that the charging input interface 101 can be connected with different ac power supply devices and dc power supply devices in an adaptive manner, thereby meeting two charging requirements of dc charging and ac charging and improving applicability.
The charging output interface 102 is connected to a powered device. The electric equipment can be a vehicle power battery and the like, and the structure and the size of the charging output interface 102 are adjustable, so that the charging output interface 102 can be connected with different electric equipment in an adaptive manner, the interface requirements of different electric equipment can be met, and the applicability is improved.
The instruction receiving module 103 is configured to receive a reserved charging instruction input by a user after being activated by the user. That is, the reservation charging instruction input by the user is received only after the instruction receiving module 103 is activated by the user, thereby improving charging safety. It will be appreciated that the user, i.e. the owner of the device 100, has corresponding activation information, such as an authorization code, and the instruction receiving module 103 is activated only after the authorization code is entered and verified, and the subsequent reservation charging function can be used after activation, thereby improving charging security. That is, the device 100 has a charging protection function, which can prevent the unauthorized device owner, i.e. other unauthorized users, from performing illegal operation setting on the charging process, so that the charging function of the device 100 can not be started or changed by external environmental factors or unintended artificial factors, and the charging safety is improved.
The signal processing module 104 is configured to receive the reserved charging instruction sent by the instruction receiving module 103, convert the reserved charging instruction into a corresponding reserved charging time signal, receive a timing completion signal sent by the timing control module 105, and send a reserved charging control signal according to the timing completion signal.
The timing control module 105 is connected to the signal processing module 104, and is configured to send a timing completion signal to the signal processing module 104 when the timing time satisfies the reserved charging time signal. It is understood that the reserved charge time signal includes a charge start time, i.e., when to start charging. For example, the current time is 8 a.m.: 30, the reserved charge time signal represents a time of 9 a in the morning: 30, i.e. to start charging after reserving one hour, the timing control module 105 starts timing after receiving the reserved charging time signal, when the timing reaches 1 hour, i.e. 9 a in the morning: 30, a timing completion signal, that is, a charge start time indicating that the reservation is reached, is sent to the signal processing module 104.
The control response module 106 is connected with the signal processing module 104, and is used for being respectively connected with the charging input interface 101 and the charging output interface 102 after receiving the reserved charging control signal, so that the power supply equipment charges the electric equipment through the device. That is, after receiving the reserved charging control signal, it is considered that the reserved charging start time is reached, and charging can be performed, and then the control response module 106 is connected with the charging input interface 101 and the charging output interface 102 respectively, so as to form a path, so that the power supply device can charge the electric equipment through the control response module 106, thereby realizing the reserved charging function.
It will be appreciated that control response module 106 contains electrical connection components through which connection to charge input interface 101 and charge output interface 102 is made.
Therefore, the device 100 for charging in the embodiment of the invention can realize the reserved charging function, and the reserved charging instruction is input and set by the device owner with the use authority, so that the device 100 has high safety, does not need to put forward software programs and other response requirements on electric equipment and power supply equipment, has low cost and better convenience and flexibility, and can be used for the situation that the electric equipment and/or the power supply equipment does not support the reserved charging function, so that the device 100 has higher applicability.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the instruction receiving module 103 is further configured to receive a charge suspension control instruction input by a user. It can be appreciated that, when charging, if the user needs to use the vehicle immediately, the charging process needs to be interrupted immediately, and then the user can input a command for stopping the charging control to the command receiving module 103, so as to implement the function of actively interrupting the charging process. It should be noted that, the command receiving module 103 receives a command to suspend charging control on the premise that it is activated, that is, the authority of the user is verified, thereby improving charging security.
The timing control module 105 is further configured to send a charging completion signal when a time for the power supply apparatus to charge the electric device through the apparatus 100 reaches a preset time. I.e. after the charging starts, the timing control module 105 counts time, and when the charging process continues for a preset time, the electric equipment is considered to be fully charged, i.e. the charging is completed, the timing control module 105 sends a charging completion signal.
The preset time is an empirical value, and can be set by combining relevant charging parameters of the power supply equipment and the electric equipment, such as discharging power or charging power, and the like, and the basis of the value is to accurately evaluate whether the electric equipment is fully charged or not as much as possible. I.e. when this value is met, the consumer is considered to be fully charged.
The control response module 106 is further configured to disconnect the charging input interface 101 and the charging output interface 102 when receiving a charging suspension control instruction or a charging completion signal. That is, when the user actively interrupts the charging process or determines that the charging is completed through timing, the control response module 106 disconnects the charging input interface 101 and the charging output interface 102, so as to disconnect the charging loop between the power supply device and the electric device, stop charging, thereby improving the flexibility of use, improving the user experience, and in addition, avoiding the continuous use of the power supply device and the electric device, thereby reducing the service life of the device.
In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in connection with fig. 2, the apparatus 100 further comprises: a first locking structure 107, a second locking structure 108 and an electric lock control unit 109.
The first locking structure 107 is used for locking the connection between the charging input interface 101 and the power supply device; the second locking structure 108 is used for locking the connection between the charging output interface 120 and the electric device; the electric lock control unit 109 is used to control the locked state of the first locking structure 107 and the second locking structure 108.
Specifically, the first locking structure 107 may be disposed at the charging input interface 101, for example, when the power supply device charges the electric device through the apparatus 100, the connection between the charging input interface 101 and the power supply device is locked, that is, the locking function is implemented, so that the charging input interface 101 and the power supply device may be firmly connected, and the connection interruption caused by external factors may be prevented, thereby ensuring the reliability and safety of the charging process.
The second locking structure 108 may be disposed at the charging output interface 102, for example, when the power supply device charges the electric device through the device, the connection between the charging output interface 102 and the electric device is locked, that is, the locking function is implemented, so that the charging output interface 102 and the electric device can be firmly connected, and the connection interruption caused by external factors can be prevented, thereby ensuring the reliability and safety of the charging process.
It can be appreciated that the specific structures and dimensions of the first locking structure 107 and the second locking structure 108 are adjusted according to actual requirements, so as to meet the interface requirements of different power supply devices and electric equipment, and improve flexibility and adaptability.
The electric lock control unit 109 may control the first locking structure 107 or the second locking structure 108 to interrupt locking when receiving a charge completion signal or a charge suspension control instruction. That is, when the charging is completed or the user actively interrupts the charging process, the first locking structure 107 or the second locking structure 108 stops locking the connection between the power supply device and the electric device, so that the connection between the power supply device and the electric device is conveniently disconnected, the user can use the vehicle in time, other users can use the power supply device as soon as possible, and the device 100 can be prevented from falling off.
That is, in the embodiment of the present invention, the apparatus 100 may be mounted on a power supply device (such as a charging pile, etc.), and may also be mounted on a powered device (such as a vehicle, etc.).
In a specific example, the electric lock control unit 109 may control the first locking structure 107 and the second locking structure 108 to perform a locking action when receiving that the device 100 completes connection with the power supply apparatus and the electric apparatus (or starts a reserved time); or when receiving a charge completion signal or suspending a charge control instruction, controls the first lock structure 107 or the second lock structure 108 to suspend the locking action. That is, when the charging is completed or the user actively interrupts the charging process, the first locking structure 107 or the second locking structure 108 stops locking the connection between the power supply device and the electric device, so that the connection between the power supply device and the electric device is conveniently disconnected, the user can use the power supply device in time, or other users can use the power supply device as soon as possible, and the device 100 can be protected from losing or falling.
It can be understood that, when the ownership of the electric device and the apparatus 100 is under the premise that the user (i.e. the apparatus 100 is mounted on the electric device) and when the charging is completed or the user actively and remotely controls to interrupt the charging process, the electric lock control unit 109 controls the first locking structure 107 to interrupt the locking and controls the second locking structure 108 to keep locking, so that the apparatus 100 can be ensured to keep locking with the electric device after completing the charging task, and the apparatus 100 is prevented from being lost or falling from the electric device.
On the other hand, when the power supply and the ownership of the device 100 do not belong to the user, the user and the electric equipment thereof only obtain the temporary use right of the device 100 (i.e. the device 100 is installed on the power supply equipment), and when the charging is completed or the user actively and remotely controls to interrupt the charging process, the electric lock control unit 109 controls the second locking structure 108 to interrupt the locking and controls the first locking structure 107 to keep locking, so that the device 100 can be ensured to keep locking with the power supply equipment after the charging task is completed, and the device 100 is prevented from being lost or falling off from the power supply equipment.
In one embodiment of the invention, the apparatus 100 further comprises a charge adjustment module 110.
The charging adjustment module 110 is configured to adjust a charging parameter and/or a charging mode during a process of charging the power supply device to the powered device through the apparatus 100. The charging parameters include, for example, a charging voltage, etc. That is, the charging parameters in the charging process, such as the step-up or step-down of a DC/DC (DC-DC converter), may be adjusted according to the actual requirement, and the charging modes, such as the DC charging mode, the ac charging mode, the switching between the DC and ac modes, may be adjusted according to the requirement, so as to facilitate the improvement of the charging efficiency and the expansion of the charging scene, thereby meeting the different charging requirements and improving the charging experience.
In a specific embodiment, the charging mode may be adjusted by the inverter device, such as an ac-dc charging mode, a dc-ac charging mode, an ac-dc inverter charging mode, and a dc-ac inverter charging mode, so that the application scenario and functions of the device 100 are more abundant.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the instruction receiving module 103 is further configured to receive an instant charging instruction input by a user; the signal processing module 104 is further configured to convert the instant charging instruction into a corresponding instant charging control signal; the control response module 106 is further configured to connect with the charging input interface 101 and the charging output interface 102 after receiving the instant charging control signal, so that the power supply device charges the electric device through the device. That is, the device 100 can also achieve instant charging. For example, the user currently has a charging requirement, and then the instant charging instruction can be sent without reservation, so that the instant charging is realized, the requirement of the user is met, and the user experience is improved.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the instruction receiving module 103 includes: an activating unit, an instruction receiving unit and an instruction transmitting unit.
The activating unit is used for controlling the instruction receiving module 103 to activate after receiving a target unlocking key input by a user; the instruction receiving unit is used for receiving a reserved charging instruction or an instant charging instruction input by a user; the instruction sending unit is configured to send the reserved charging instruction or the instant charging instruction to the signal processing module 104.
