Detailed Description

In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the technical solutions in the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

Referring to fig. 1, a schematic structural diagram of a charging pile provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown. The charging pile is usually used as an energy supply device of the electric automobile and can rapidly charge a storage battery of the electric automobile. However, the conventional charging pile does not support charging of low-speed electric vehicles such as electric motorcycles, electric bicycles, and electric tricycles. Based on this, this application embodiment provides a fill electric pile of wide area electric current and voltage output, can support the power demand of electric power storage device such as electric automobile, electric motorcycle, electric bicycle and electric tricycle.

Referring to fig. 2, a schematic view of a general charging process provided in the embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in fig. 2, the whole process of charging the electric vehicle by using the charging pile comprises six stages: the method comprises the steps of physical connection completion, low-voltage auxiliary power-on, a charging handshake phase, a charging parameter configuration phase, a charging phase and a charging end phase.

The charging handshaking stage is divided into a handshaking starting stage and a handshaking identification stage, when the physical connection between the charging pile and the electric automobile is completed and the charging pile is electrified, the low-voltage auxiliary power supply is started, the handshaking starting stage is started to send a handshaking message, and then insulation monitoring is carried out. And entering a handshake identification stage after insulation monitoring is finished, and sending identification messages by the two parties to determine necessary information of the charging pile and the electric automobile.

After the charging handshake phase is completed, the charging pile and the electric automobile enter a charging parameter configuration phase. At this stage, the charging pile sends a message of the maximum output capacity of the charging pile to the electric automobile, and the electric automobile judges whether the charging can be carried out according to the maximum output capacity of the charging pile.

And after the charging configuration stage is completed, the charging pile and the electric automobile enter the charging stage. In the whole charging stage, the electric automobile sends the battery charging demand to the charging pile in real time, and the charging pile adjusts the charging voltage and the charging current according to the battery charging demand so as to ensure that the charging process is normally carried out. In the charging process, the charging pile and the electric automobile send respective charging states. Besides, the electric automobile can send specific state information of the power storage battery, voltage, temperature and other information to the charging pile according to requirements.

The electric automobile judges whether to finish charging according to whether the charging process is normal, whether the battery state reaches the charging finishing condition set by the electric automobile and whether a charging stopping message of the charging pile is received; and the charging pile judges whether to finish charging according to whether a charging stopping instruction is received, whether the charging process is normal, whether a manually set charging parameter value is reached or not, or whether an electric automobile charging stopping message is received or not.

And after the charging pile and the electric automobile stop charging, the charging end stage is started. At this stage, the electric automobile sends charging statistical data in the whole charging process to the charging pile, wherein the charging statistical data comprises an initial SOC, a final SOC, a lowest voltage and a highest voltage of the battery; and after receiving the charging statistical data of the electric automobile, the charging pile sends information such as output electric quantity, accumulated charging time and the like in the whole charging process to the electric automobile, and finally stops outputting the low-voltage auxiliary power supply.

The charging overall process is the charging process of the charging pile for the electric automobile. However, the charging pile provided by the embodiment of the application not only needs to charge the electric automobile, but also needs to charge low-speed electric vehicles such as an electric motorcycle, an electric bicycle and an electric tricycle. The details will be described below.

Referring to fig. 3, a structural block diagram of a charging pile provided in the embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in fig. 3, the charging pile provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a first filtering submodule, a first AC/DC conversion module, a DC/high frequency AC conversion module, a power conversion module, a second AC/DC conversion module, a second filtering submodule, and an output interface. The first filtering submodule, the first AC/DC conversion module, the DC/high-frequency AC conversion module, the power conversion module, the second AC/DC conversion module, the second filtering submodule and the output interface are sequentially connected through a current transmission line to transmit current.

In addition, the first filtering submodule, the first AC/DC conversion module, the DC/high-frequency AC conversion module, the power conversion module, the second AC/DC conversion module, the second filtering submodule and the output interface are respectively connected to a control bus, and a controller, a communication module, a signal detection module and a power distribution module are further hung on the communication bus, so that information transmission among the modules is facilitated.

In the embodiment of the present application, the power source may be input from the power grid to charge the power storage device, or may be input from the power storage device to charge the power grid.

When the power storage device is charged through the power grid, the first filtering submodule filters the power input by the power grid and transmits the filtered power to the first AC/DC conversion module. It can be understood that, since the power output by the power grid is AC, the power transmitted to the first AC/DC conversion module is also AC. The first AC/DC conversion module converts alternating current input by the first filtering submodule into direct current and then transmits the direct current to the DC/high-frequency AC conversion module; the DC/high-frequency AC conversion module converts the direct current into high-frequency alternating current and transmits the high-frequency alternating current to the power conversion module; the power conversion module converts the high-frequency alternating current into power matched with the electric storage device and transmits the power to the second AC/DC conversion module; the second AC/DC conversion module converts the alternating current input by the power conversion module into direct current and transmits the direct current to the second filtering submodule; the second filtering submodule filters the direct current and transmits the filtered direct current to the output interface; the output interface outputs direct current to charge an electric storage device connected with the direct current interface. Thus, the whole power transmission and conversion process is completed.

Besides the transmission and conversion of the power supply, when the charging pile works, the charging pile also needs to be correspondingly controlled, and information detection and interaction are carried out. In one possible implementation manner, the controller, the communication module, the signal detection module, the power distribution module, the first filtering sub-module, the first AC/DC conversion module, the DC/high frequency AC conversion module, the power conversion module, the second AC/DC conversion module, the second filtering sub-module, and the output interface are connected through a communication bus. The first filtering submodule, the first AC/DC conversion module, the DC/high-frequency AC conversion module, the power conversion module, the second AC/DC conversion module, the second filtering submodule and the output interface can transmit information based on a communication bus. Of course, those skilled in the art can adopt other communication modes according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present application is not particularly limited thereto.

Specifically, the communication module is used for information interaction with the power storage device to be charged. For example, the communication module and the power storage device complete charging handshake and charging parameter configuration according to a preset communication protocol or rule. The charging parameter configuration specifically includes that a charging pile sends a message of the maximum output capacity of the charging pile to an electric storage device, and the electric storage device judges whether charging can be carried out according to the maximum output capacity of the charging pile; or the electric storage device sends a charging demand to the charging pile so that the charging pile can control and output corresponding current and voltage according to the charging demand.

The detection module is used for detecting the power storage device to be charged, for example, checking relevant parameters of a storage battery of the power storage device, including information of voltage, temperature and the like of the storage battery.

It can be understood that when the controller judges that the information interaction result of the communication module and the detection result of the detection module meet the preset requirement, the controller can control the output port to output a corresponding power supply to charge the power storage device; when the controller judges that the information interaction result of the communication module and the detection result of the detection module do not meet the preset requirement, the charging of the power storage device can be refused. Specifically, when the information interaction result of the communication module and the detection result of the detection module meet preset requirements, a control instruction is sent to the power conversion module, and the power conversion module is used for converting the output power of the charging pile according to the control instruction, so that the output power of the output interface is matched with the required power of the to-be-charged power storage device.

In an alternative embodiment, the number of the output interfaces is two or more, so as to charge two or more electrical storage devices at the same time. In practical applications, the two or more power storage devices may have different requirements for charging power, and therefore, the embodiment of the present application distributes the output power to the two or more output interfaces through the power distribution module.

In an alternative embodiment, the output power of the output interface corresponds to a voltage range and a current range of 48-600V and 10-500A respectively, and the corresponding output power is 5-50 kw. The requirements for charging power, voltage and current may be adjusted accordingly based on the electrical storage device.

In addition, the charging pile provided by the embodiment of the application can also reversely supply power to a power grid. In this case, the output interface is used for receiving power input from the power storage device. It can be understood that, when the power storage device supplies power to the power grid, the current is transmitted in the reverse direction, and for the specific content, reference may be made to the above description of the embodiment of "charging the power storage device by the power grid", and for brevity, details are not described herein again. In the embodiment of the application, the current can reversely flow into the power grid from the power storage devices to supply power to the power grid, so that all the power storage devices form an energy internet through the power grid, and the power is allocated in different time periods and regions through the power grid.

In an alternative embodiment, the semiconductor devices in the functional modules in the charging pile are GaN and/or SiC semiconductor devices, such as GaN triodes, SiC triodes, and the like. Compared with Si, GaN has lower Static On-Resistance (RDS (ON)) and internal capacitance (Coss) than SiC, so that the conduction loss and the switching loss (switchingloss) can be reduced, and the efficiency of the power supply can be improved. In addition, because the GaN and/or SiC semiconductor device can support higher working frequency, the no-load loss of the transformer in the charging device is reduced, the output power is increased, and the efficiency of the transformer is further improved. Because the GaN and/SiC semiconductor device can support higher working frequency, and the capacitance and the inductance can be made smaller under high frequency, the volume and the total amount of the charging device can be reduced, and the energy density of the charging device is improved. Under the same size, the current density is larger, the charging current can be increased by multiple times, and the charging speed is increased by multiple times.

It should be noted that the high frequency referred to in the embodiments of the present application generally means a frequency higher than 100M, and may even be as high as 1G. Whereas conventional Si devices typically have frequencies below 100K. It will be appreciated that the higher the frequency, the smaller the size the charging device can be made, and the greater the energy density.

In addition, the embodiment of the application realizes the conversion from alternating current to direct current through the first AC/DC conversion module, the DC/high-frequency AC conversion module and the second AC/DC conversion module. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, the alternating current is first converted into the direct current, and then the direct current is converted into the high-frequency alternating current. Since the high frequency is a main cause of reducing the volume and the total volume of the charging device, the volume and the total volume of the charging device can be reduced by adopting the arrangement mode. On the contrary, if an AC/DC conversion module is directly used to convert AC power to DC power, the charging device loses the advantage of high frequency.

In addition, in an alternative embodiment, the first AC/DC conversion module and the DC/high frequency AC conversion module may be combined to directly modulate a high frequency alternating current at a low frequency alternating current power, but this arrangement may easily cause the quality of the electrical signal to deteriorate.

It should be understood that fig. 3 is only one possible implementation manner listed in the present application, and should not be taken as a limitation to the scope of the present application, and those skilled in the art can delete, supplement, combine, disassemble, or adjust the sequence of the relevant functional modules according to actual needs, and all of them should fall within the scope of the present application.

For example, in an alternative embodiment, only one filtering module may be used, and the filtering module may be disposed at the front end (on the side close to the power grid) or the back end (on the side close to the output interface) for filtering, or the filtering module may not be disposed.
