Those of skill in the art will explicitly and implicitly appreciate that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of an overcharge protection circuit provided herein, and the overcharge protection circuit 100 includes a battery 10, a charge circuit and a discharge circuit formed by the battery 10, and a control unit 20, wherein the discharge circuit includes the battery 10, a first switch 31 and a resistor 40, and the charge circuit includes the battery 10, a second switch 32 and a charging unit 50.
The battery 10 is a lithium battery of an electric vehicle, and in one embodiment, the battery 10 includes a plurality of battery boxes connected in series, and each battery box includes a plurality of battery cells connected in series. Of course, in other embodiments, the battery 10 may include only one battery compartment or one battery cell.
The first switch 31 and the second switch 32 may be relays, such as electromagnetic relays. Specifically, the electromagnetic relay may include two path terminals and two control terminals, wherein a voltage is applied between the two control terminals to cause coils therein to generate a magnetic field, thereby controlling conduction between the two path terminals of the electromagnetic relay.
Specifically, the first control terminal and the second control terminal of the second switch 32 are connected to the control unit 20, the first path terminal of the second switch 32 is connected to the positive electrode of the battery 10, and the second path terminal of the second switch 32 is connected to the charging unit 50. When the control unit 20 applies a voltage to the first control terminal and the second control terminal of the second switch 32. The first and second path terminals of the second switch 32 are turned on, and the battery 10 and the charging unit 50 form a charging circuit, and the charging unit 50 charges the battery 10.
Specifically, the first control terminal and the second control terminal of the first switch 31 are connected to the control unit 20, the first path terminal of the first switch 31 is connected to the second path terminal of the second switch 32, and the second path terminal of the first switch 31 is connected to the resistor 40. When the control unit 20 applies a voltage to the first control terminal and the second control terminal of the first switch 31. The first and second path ends of the first switch 31 are turned on, and the battery 10 and the resistor 40 form a discharge circuit on the premise that the second switch 32 is also turned on, and the resistor 40 consumes electric energy by generating heat.
It will be appreciated that the resistor 40 is a braking resistor (braking resistor), which is one type of ripple resistor, and is mainly used in a mechanical system in which a frequency converter controls a motor to stop rapidly, so as to help the motor convert regenerated electric energy generated by the rapid stopping into heat energy.
In the present embodiment, the control unit 20 is configured to control the first switch 31 to be periodically turned on and off to discharge the battery 10 using the discharge circuit when the electric quantity of the battery 10 is greater than the set proportion threshold value, and to control the first switch 31 to be turned off when the electric quantity of the battery 10 is less than the set proportion threshold value.
The set proportion threshold may be set according to practical situations, and in an embodiment, the set proportion threshold may be set to 98%. In other embodiments, the scaling threshold may be set to any value between 95% and 100%.
It will be appreciated that the above procedure is to prevent overcharging of the battery 10, and therefore, the second switch 32 may default to be conductive, i.e., during charging.
As can be appreciated, in the present embodiment, the control unit 20 controls the first switch 31 to be turned on and off periodically when controlling the discharge, so as to prevent the problem of excessive temperature caused by heat generation of the resistor 40 during the discharge, and thus intermittent on and off is adopted.
Alternatively, in an embodiment, the control unit 20 may control the on and off of the first switch 31 based on a preset pulse signal.
As shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a control pulse of the first switch in an embodiment. The pulse signal may include n periods (cycles), and the duty ratio of the pulse signal may be set according to actual requirements, and in an embodiment, the duty ratio may be set to 30%.
Further, in one embodiment, the pulse signal includes 6 periods, each of which lasts for 5 minutes, i.e., the entire discharge process lasts for 30 minutes.
For example, in one mode, when it is detected that the electric quantity of the battery 10 is greater than 98%, the discharging process is performed for 30 minutes in the above-described mode, and after the discharging process is finished, the electric quantity of the battery 10 is detected again, and whether to continue discharging is determined again.
For example, in another mode, when the electric quantity of the battery 10 is detected to be greater than 98%, the discharging process is performed for 30min in the above mode, the electric quantity of the battery 10 can be detected in real time during the discharging process, and when the electric quantity of the battery 10 is less than a certain proportion threshold value, the discharging can be stopped in real time, that is, the first switch 31 is turned off.
It will be appreciated that the charging unit 50 described above may be an engine. Specifically, in a normal form of the electric vehicle, the battery 10 drives the engine through the driving circuit, thereby driving the form of the electric vehicle, while in a special scene such as a downhill, the vehicle does not need to provide driving current along with inertial movement of the vehicle, but rather generates feedback current to charge the battery 10.
It will be appreciated that the first switch 10 may employ a relay since the first switch 10 is turned on and off based on a pulse signal, but the period of the pulse signal is long (e.g., 5 min). In other embodiments, the first switch 10 may also consider using a MOS transistor if the period of the pulse signal is short.
The overcharge protection circuit provided in this embodiment includes: the discharging loop comprises a battery, a first switch and a resistor; the control unit is connected with the battery and the first switch, and is configured to control the first switch to be periodically turned on and off when the electric quantity of the battery is larger than a set proportion threshold value so as to discharge the battery by utilizing the discharge loop, and control the first switch to be turned off when the electric quantity of the battery is smaller than the set proportion threshold value. By means of the mode, the battery is discharged based on the electric quantity of the battery in the charging process of the automobile battery, and the problem of battery damage caused by overcharging due to some special form scenes such as a downhill slope is avoided.

The current collection unit 70 is connected to the control unit 20, and the current collection unit 70 is configured to collect the current of the battery 10. The first temperature acquisition unit 81 is connected to the control unit 20, and the first temperature acquisition unit 81 is configured to acquire the temperature of the battery 10.
Alternatively, the voltage collecting unit 60 may perform voltage detection on the positive electrode of the battery 10 by using a resistor voltage division method, the current collecting unit 70 may perform current detection on the negative electrode of the battery 10 by using a hall sensor, the first temperature collecting unit 81 may be an NTC thermistor for performing temperature detection on the battery 10, and the NTC thermistor may be attached to the outer side of the battery 10.
It can be understood that the voltage acquisition unit 60, the current acquisition unit 70 and the first temperature acquisition unit 81 in this embodiment mainly detect the health status of the battery 10 in real time, and the control unit 20 may further perform corresponding calculation to determine the health status of the battery according to the detected parameters of the battery 10.

Further, the overcharge protection circuit 100 further includes a second temperature acquisition unit 82, the second temperature acquisition unit 82 being connected to the control unit 20, the second temperature acquisition unit 82 being configured to acquire the temperature of the resistor 40, the control unit 20 being configured to control the first switch 31 to be turned on when the temperature of the resistor 40 is less than a set temperature threshold value, and to control the first switch 32 to be turned off when the temperature of the resistor is greater than the set temperature threshold value, when the temperature of the resistor is controlled to be periodically turned on and off.
It will be appreciated that this embodiment performs control of turning on and off of the first switch 31 by detecting the temperature of the resistor 40, unlike the manner in which the first embodiment periodically turns on and off.
The set temperature threshold may be set correspondingly according to the parameters of the resistor 40.
Specifically, when the amount of electricity of the battery 10 is greater than 98%, the first switch 31 is alternately turned on and off, wherein when the temperature of the resistor 40 is greater than the set temperature threshold, the first switch 32 is turned off, and when the temperature of the resistor 40 is less than the set temperature threshold, the first switch 32 is turned on.
