The midpoints of the phase legs in motor inverter 210 collectively form the ac output of motor inverter 210. Each phase of bridge arm comprises an upper bridge arm and a lower bridge arm, and power switches are arranged on the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm.

Referring to fig. 3-4, in some embodiments, the battery self-heating mode includes:
in the battery discharging and bus capacitor 250 charging phase, the controller controls the first switch 230 and the second upper leg 212 of the motor inverter 210 to be turned on and controls the first lower leg 242 of the first leg 240 to be turned off, so that the battery, the second upper leg 212 of the motor inverter 210, the motor winding 221, the first switch 230, the first upper leg 241 of the first leg 240 and the bus capacitor 250 form a first battery heating loop for discharging the battery and charging the bus capacitor 250;
in the battery charging and bus capacitor 250 discharging phase, the controller controls the first switch 230 and the first upper arm 241 of the first arm 240 to be turned on and controls the second lower arm 213 of the motor inverter 210 to be turned off, so that the bus capacitor 250, the first upper arm 241 of the first arm 240, the first switch 230, the motor winding 221, the second upper arm 212 of the motor inverter 210 and the battery form a second battery heating loop for charging the battery and discharging the bus capacitor 250.
In this embodiment, the battery self-heating mode at least includes a battery discharging and bus capacitor 250 charging stage and a battery charging and bus capacitor 250 discharging stage, and the controller can control the above two stages to perform repeated cyclic operation to realize continuous self-heating of the battery.
In the battery discharging and bus capacitor 250 charging phase, the controller controls the first switch 230 and the second upper leg 212 of the motor inverter 210 to be on and controls the first lower leg 242 of the first leg 240 to be off, so that the battery, the second upper leg 212 of the motor inverter 210, the motor windings 221, the first switch 230, the first upper leg 241 of the first leg 240, and the bus capacitor 250 form a first battery heating loop for discharging the battery and charging the bus capacitor 250. The battery charges the bus capacitor 250 through the first battery heating loop. Since the first lower bridge arm 242 is turned off, the electric quantity output by the battery flows to the bus capacitor 250 through the first diode 2431 of the first IGBT243 in the first upper bridge arm 241 after passing through the first switch 230, so as to charge the bus capacitor 250 by the battery. The first battery heating circuit is shown by an arrow in fig. 3, and the pointing direction of the arrow is the current direction in the first battery heating circuit.
In the battery charging and bus capacitor 250 discharging phase, the controller controls the first switch 230 and the first upper arm 241 of the first arm 240 to be turned on and controls the second lower arm 213 of the motor inverter 210 to be turned off, so that the bus capacitor 250, the first upper arm 241 of the first arm 240, the first switch 230, the motor winding 221, the second upper arm 212 of the motor inverter 210 and the battery form a second battery heating loop for charging the battery and discharging the bus capacitor 250. The bus capacitor 250 charges the battery through the second battery heating loop. Since the second lower bridge arm 213 is turned off, the electric quantity output by the bus capacitor 250 flows to the battery through the third diode 2141 of the third IGBT214 in the second upper bridge arm 212 after passing through the motor winding 221, so as to realize that the bus capacitor 250 charges the battery. The second battery heating circuit is shown by the arrow in fig. 4, and the pointing direction of the arrow is the current direction in the second battery heating circuit.
It should be appreciated that during the battery discharging and bus capacitor 250 charging phase, a certain amount of power is charged in motor winding 221, and motor winding 221 freewheels bus capacitor 250 such that the voltage of bus capacitor 250 is greater than the battery charging voltage, to achieve charging of the rechargeable battery by bus capacitor 250 during the battery charging and bus capacitor 250 discharging phase.
In addition, due to the characteristics of the bridge arms, only one of the upper and lower bridge arms of the bridge arm can be conducted at the same time. For example, when the upper arm of the arm is in an on state, the lower arm is in an off state. In this context, the controller controls the on/off of the first upper arm 241, the first lower arm 242, the second upper arm 212, and the second lower arm 213, and essentially controls the on/off of the power switches in the upper and lower arms. For example, the controller controls the first upper leg 241 to conduct, essentially the controller controls the first IGBT243 to conduct.

In this embodiment, the battery is discharged and the motor winding 221 charging phase can be used to achieve that the battery alone charges the motor winding 221, so that the motor winding 221 is pre-charged with a larger amount of power. The electric quantity in the motor winding 221 freewheels into the bus capacitor 250 to improve the electric quantity and voltage in the bus capacitor 250, so as to improve the charging current of the bus capacitor 250 to the battery and improve the self-heating effect of the battery.
The third battery heating circuit is shown by an arrow in fig. 5, and the pointing direction of the arrow is the current trend in the third battery heating circuit.
It should be appreciated that in this stage, more charge can be placed in the motor winding 221 than in the manner in which the battery simultaneously charges the motor winding 221 and the bus capacitor 250. In this way, when the motor winding 221 freewheels the bus capacitor 250 in the subsequent stage, the charging current of the bus capacitor 250 to the battery can be increased when the battery is charged and the bus capacitor 250 is discharged, and the self-heating effect of the battery is improved.
Referring to fig. 6, in some embodiments, the battery self-heating mode further includes:
in the charging phase of the motor winding 221 and the bus capacitor 250, the controller controls the first switch 230 to be turned on and controls the first lower leg 242 of the first leg 240 to be turned off, so that the motor winding 221, the first switch 230, the first upper leg 241 of the first leg 240, the bus capacitor 250 and the second lower leg 213 of the motor inverter 210 form a fourth battery heating loop for discharging the motor winding 221 and charging the bus capacitor 250.
