Definitions
- the invention relates to a charging device for charging an electrical energy store of an electrically operable vehicle and a method for charging an electrical energy store of an electrically operable vehicle with such a charging device.
- an additional 400 V/800 V DC converter is required to charge the vehicle's electrical energy storage device at a 400 V charging station.
- DE 102019003459 A1 discloses a charging device for charging a high-voltage battery with a DC voltage connection for connecting the charging device to an external charging connection.
- the charging device includes an AC voltage connection for connecting the charging device to a second external charging connection and a DC voltage converter for converting a first DC voltage of the first charging connection into a second DC voltage with which the high-voltage battery is supplied.
- the charging device also includes an on-board charger for converting an AC voltage of the second charging connection into the second DC voltage, it being possible to convert the first DC voltage into the second DC voltage, which is higher than the first DC voltage, by connecting the DC voltage converter and the on-board charger in parallel.
- the charging device is a charging unit of an electrically operable vehicle, with which a high-voltage battery of the electrically operable vehicle can be charged. Due to the parallel connection of the DC voltage converter and the on-board charger, a lower DC voltage of the first external Charging connection are converted to a battery voltage of the high-voltage battery in the second DC voltage.
- DC voltage converters also called DC/DC converters
- DC/DC converters have been known in power electronics for a long time and in a variety of ways, also in the interconnection of the components themselves, and also, for example, in the literature in the book “Basic course in power electronics” by Joachim Specovius in the 3rd edition from 2009 in chapter 18 "DC converter”.
- the DC-DC converters can be subdivided into buck converters, boost converters and buck-boost converters.
- a step-up converter shown there is designed, for example, as a so-called half-bridge converter, in which the voltage from the input to the output is essentially unchanged at a first pole and the voltage from the input is applied at a lower voltage to the second pole through the components and corresponding circuits Output is converted with a higher voltage.
- a so-called charge pump can also serve as a step-up converter, which is also referred to as a charge doubler because of a fixed conversion ratio of 1:2 and is also known to the person skilled in the art from the general prior art.
- DC-DC converters there is the possibility for all types, especially with galvanically coupled DC-DC converters, to choose a version of the DC-DC converter in which the voltage level at one pole between input and output is directly coupled and therefore unchangeable, so that then at the other pole the voltage level between the input and the output is changed and thus converted.
- One object of the invention is to create an improved charging device for charging an electrical energy store of an electrically operable vehicle.
- a further object is to specify a method for charging an electrical energy store of an electrically operable vehicle with such an improved charging device.
- a charging device for charging an electrical energy store of an electrically operable vehicle with a charging connection for electrically connecting the charging device to an external voltage supply, a charging unit for converting a first DC voltage present at the charging connection into a second DC voltage, which is used for charging of the electrical energy store is provided, and a power distribution unit with a first and a second output for providing the first DC voltage present at the charging connection and/or the second DC voltage converted by the charging unit to the electrical energy store connected to the outputs.
- the power distribution unit has a first electrical connection for the charging connection and a second electrical connection for the charging unit.
- the power distribution unit has switches with which the charging connection is switched to the first and second output in a first charging state, and in a second charging state a first output of the charging unit is connected to one of the outputs of the power distribution unit and a second output of the charging unit is connected to the other of the outputs the power distribution unit is connected.
- the first DC voltage of the charging connection can be connected to the first and second output of the power distribution unit in the charging device in the first charging state
- the second DC voltage converted by the charging unit can be connected to the first and second output of the power distribution unit in the second charging state.
- the energy store which is connected to the outputs of the power distribution unit and which has a target voltage of 800 V, for example, can be charged directly via a DC voltage of likewise 800 V present at the charging connection.
- this first DC voltage can be converted to a second DC voltage of 800 V by the DC voltage converter of the charging unit, and the energy store can thus also be charged with 800 V.
- the first output of the charging unit can be connected via the first switch of the power distribution unit to a first pole of the charging connection and directly to the first output of the power distribution unit be wired.
- the second output of the charging unit can be connected to the second output of the power distribution unit, and an input of the charging unit can be connected to a second pole of the charging connection.
- a switch is provided in the charging unit, which switches through the input of the charging unit to an input of a DC voltage converter of the charging unit.
- the first output of the charging unit is also used at the same time as an input of the charging unit.
- the first direct voltage can be switched through to the charging unit, can be converted into the second direct voltage and this second direct voltage can be switched through to the outputs of the power distribution unit.
- a three-pole wiring harness is required for the connection between the power distribution unit and the charging unit.
- the charging unit of the charging device is not, as in the prior art, arranged between the charging connection and the power distribution unit and thus has two inputs and two outputs, but can be switched on from the power distribution unit and only requires three connections for this purpose. Accordingly, a direct connection between the charging connection and the power distribution unit is thus possible. This corresponds to the function of a bypass circuit of the charging unit, which then no longer takes place via the charging unit.
- the power distribution unit contains all other charging-relevant components, as well as components of a so-called high-voltage intermediate circuit with, for example, components for connecting the energy store to the high-voltage vehicle electrical system.
- the charging unit can have a standard DC-DC converter, which is designed as a step-up converter, so that an electric vehicle (EV) with a high-voltage vehicle electrical system with a higher voltage, for example 800 V, can also be connected to a DC charging station with a lower voltage, for example. 400V can be charged.
- EV electric vehicle
- a high-voltage vehicle electrical system with a higher voltage for example 800 V
- a DC charging station with a lower voltage for example. 400V can be charged.
- the wiring of the charging device has advantages, especially in the contacting and in the wiring harness, especially in the case of high-voltage cables.
- the same functions can be implemented as with a conventional charging device and yet a direct connection between the charging connection and the power distribution unit can be used for simple charging with direct current (DC), in which the charging voltage corresponds to the system voltage of the vehicle electrical system or the energy store will.
- DC direct current
- the loading unit is not loaded.
- the charging current is also not routed via the charging unit, which means that the wiring harness simplified, requires fewer contact points and is therefore better at heat development and cooling.
- the charging unit is advantageously integrated with a DC voltage converter as a galvanically coupled converter into the existing high-voltage vehicle electrical system architecture.
- a DC voltage converter as a galvanically coupled converter into the existing high-voltage vehicle electrical system architecture.
- 800V and 400V are of course example values to illustrate the advantages and advantages of the invention and, as is also known to a person skilled in the art, they are not fixed values that are permanently present, but depend on the state of charge of the energy storage device or the charging station in a wide range of tensions symbolized by these values.
- the charger requires only one high current two-pin connector (e.g. a 500A two-pin connector) to connect the charging port, while only two lower power three-pin connectors (e.g. two 125A three-pin connectors) are required to connect the charger to the power distribution unit .
- high current two-pin connector e.g. a 500A two-pin connector
- lower power three-pin connectors e.g. two 125A three-pin connectors
- the bypass switch for example a high-voltage contactor, can be dispensed with.
- the installation space can be reduced since there are no high-current busbars.
- the charging unit does not heat up as a result of the high-current path usually having to be looped through as a bypass through the charging unit.
- the charging unit only needs to be designed for lower charging capacities, so that the charging unit can be made more compact and lighter.
- the charging unit and the switches installed in or on the charging unit, as well as connectors and cables, only need to be designed for the charging unit's own nominal current.
- the integration of the charging device into the vehicle is also simplified, since the charging device has only one high-voltage connection on the power distribution unit and smaller bending radii of the high-voltage lines.
- CHAdeMO Charge de Move” as a standard developed in Japan with a charging capacity of up to 50 kW in most cases
- GB/T as a standard developed in China.
- the charging device can also be used to advantage with future standards such as ChaoJi (for CHAdeMO standard 3.0 with a charging capacity of up to 500 kW) and MegaWatt charging, which does not have to be routed via the charging unit with charging voltages equal to the high-voltage on-board voltage and analogous to the
- future standards such as ChaoJi (for CHAdeMO standard 3.0 with a charging capacity of up to 500 kW) and MegaWatt charging, which does not have to be routed via the charging unit with charging voltages equal to the high-voltage on-board voltage and analogous to the
- the advantages of charging at an 800 V charging station are that the charging unit does not heat up as a result of the high-current path usually being looped through as a bypass through the charging unit.
- the charging device not only has current advantages when charging at 800 V charging stations and 400 V charging stations, but can also be used in a future-proof manner with future charging standards and also offers the same advantages.
- the arrangement and connection of the charging unit with the DC-DC converter means that new electric vehicles in particular with a high-voltage on-board voltage of more than 500 V, for example 800 V, can not only be charged directly at DC charging stations that also have the same high charging voltage, but also backward compatible via the charging unit of the charging device to charging stations with lower voltage, such as 400 V.
- the DC-DC converter can be designed as a step-up converter.
- a first direct voltage of 400 V can thus be advantageously converted into a second direct voltage of 800 V required for charging an energy store with a target voltage of 800 V.
- the first switch and the second switch can be closed and the third switch can be open in the first charging state, in particular in which the first DC voltage at the charging connection is greater than or equal to the setpoint voltage of the electrical energy store.
- the first DC voltage is present between the first output and the second output of the power distributor. In this way, the DC voltage present at the charging connection can be switched through directly to the outputs of the power distribution unit and thus to an input of the energy store.
- the first electrical connection of the power distribution unit can have a two-pole high-current plug connector. Conveniently, only one cable with such a plug connector is required to connect the charging connection to the power distribution unit.
- the second electrical connection of the power distribution unit can have a three-pole plug connector.
- the charging unit can thus advantageously be connected to the power distribution unit via a cable with two three-pin plug connectors.
- a two-pin plug connector and a one-pin plug connector can also be provided here, so that instead of a one-piece plug connector with three poles, two plug connectors are arranged, one with two poles and one with one pole.
- the two connectors can then be connected to one another separately via two independent connecting devices, in particular two cables, or via a common cable, also as a cable harness, or a single cable with two connection devices for the two connectors, one with one pole and one with two Poland.
- the connection can also be provided as three individual plug connectors, each with a single pole, but this is somewhat more complex and also more error-prone due to the larger number of plug connectors.
- the second electrical connection of the power distribution unit and the third electrical connection of the charging unit can be complementary, so that the second electrical connection of the power distribution unit can be connected directly to the third electrical connection of the charging unit without a connecting device.
- a socket can be arranged directly on the housing of the power distribution unit and the matching counterpart can be arranged as a plug directly on the housing on the charging unit, so that a direct connection between the power distribution unit and the charging unit can be established via the plug-socket connection on the two housings can be made.
- a connecting device can also be used instead of a cable as a connecting device between the plug connections, regardless of whether it is a plug connector with three poles or two plug connectors with one pole and one two poles, which can also be done, for example, via busbars, i.e. fixed, preformed line devices a so-called direct connection is also possible.
- a direct connection there is no connection device between the plug connector of the charging unit and the plug connector of the power distribution unit and the plug connector of the charging unit is directly connected to the plug connector of the power distribution unit, ie plugged into one another.
- a connecting device in particular a cable, be dispensed with, which saves weight and costs, but also an improvement in conductivity and a reduction in error sources can be achieved due to the smaller number of contacts.
- a third electrical connection can be provided on the charging unit, which is connected to the second electrical connection of the power distribution unit.
- the third electrical connection can have a three-pole plug connector.
- the charging unit can thus advantageously be connected to the power distribution unit via a cable with two three-pin plug connectors.
- only one two-pin high-current connector is used to connect the charging connection to the power distribution unit, and only two three-pin connectors are used to connect the charging unit to the power distribution unit Connectors required, which are designed for lower nominal currents of the charging unit.
- the positive pole of the poles of the charging connection in the second charging state, can represent a common reference of the first DC voltage present at the charging connection and the second DC voltage present at the first output and the second output of the power distribution unit.
- this connection can be made using a cable with only three poles. Alternatively or reinterpreted, the same also applies to the negative pole of the poles.
- a method for charging an electrical energy store of an electrically operable vehicle with a charging device as described above includes at least the following steps: comparing a maximum voltage that the charging station can provide as the first DC voltage with a maximum voltage required for charging the electrical energy store as the setpoint voltage of the electrical energy store.
- the maximum voltage that the charging station can provide as the first DC voltage is normally determined or exchanged during charging via communication between the vehicle and the charging station, or requested by the vehicle and transmitted by the charging station.
- the voltage can also be measured before the charging contactors close to ensure that the voltage difference between the charging voltage and a pre-charging of a high-voltage intermediate circuit is not too great, so as not to damage the contactors when they close.
- the first DC voltage always refers to the maximum possible voltage that the charging station can supply and the target voltage to the maximum required voltage of the electrical energy store that is necessary for charging.
- the method further includes the steps: closing a first and a second switch of a power distribution unit for connection the charging port having a first output and a second output of the power distribution unit; switching the first DC voltage to the first output and the second output via the first and second switches; Charging the electrical energy store with the first DC voltage.
- the method further comprises the steps: closing the first switch to connect a first pole of the charging connection to the first output of the electrical energy store and a first output of a charging unit; opening the second switch of the power distribution unit and connecting an input of the charging unit to a second pole of the charging port; closing a third switch of the charging unit to connect the input of the charging unit to an input of a DC/DC converter of the charging unit; switching a second DC voltage converted by the charging unit to the first output and the second output of the power distribution unit; Charging the electrical energy store with the second DC voltage.
- the first DC voltage present at the charging connection in a first charge state in which the first DC voltage is greater than or equal to the target voltage of the electrical energy store, the first DC voltage present at the charging connection can be switched through directly to the outputs of the power distribution unit. An energy store electrically connected to the outputs can thus be charged with the first DC voltage.
- the first direct voltage in a second charge state, in which the first direct voltage is lower than the target voltage of the electrical energy store, the first direct voltage can be switched to the input of the charging unit. Furthermore, by opening the second switch of the power distribution unit, the connection of the charging port to the output of the power distribution unit is broken. In the charging unit, the first DC voltage is converted by a DC voltage converter into a second, higher DC voltage, which is then switched to the outputs of the power distribution unit via the outputs of the charging unit. An energy store electrically connected to the outputs can thus be charged with the second direct voltage.

- FIG. 3 shows a flow chart of a method for charging an electrical energy store of an electrically operable vehicle according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 1 shows a system overview of charging device 100 for charging an electrical energy store 60 of an electrically operable vehicle 200 according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention.
- Charging device 100 includes a charging connection 50 for electrically connecting charging device 100 to an external power supply (not shown), a charging unit 10 for converting a first DC voltage present at charging connection 50 into a second DC voltage, which is provided for charging electrical energy store 60, and a Power distributor unit 30 with a first and a second output 36, 38 for providing the first DC voltage present at the charging connection 50 and/or the second DC voltage converted by the charging unit 10 to the electrical energy store 60 connected to the outputs 36, 38.
- the energy store 60 is connected directly to the outputs 36, 38 of the power distribution unit 30 and comprises a row of battery cells 66, which are indicated only schematically with a battery symbol and which are switched on for charging via two contactors 62, 64.
- the outputs 36, 38 of the power distribution unit 30 can be connected to other, not shown, charging-relevant components of a high-voltage intermediate circuit of a high-voltage vehicle electrical system, such as other switches.
- the power distribution unit 30 has a first electrical connection 52 for the charging connection 50 and a second electrical connection 56 for the charging unit 10 .
- the power distribution unit 30 has switches 32, 34, with which, in a first charging state, the charging connection 50 can be switched to the first and second output 36, 38 by closing the switches 32, 34. In the first charging state, a first DC voltage present at the charging connection 50 is therefore connected to the first and second output 36 , 38 of the power distribution unit 30 .
- the charging unit 10 has a connection 54 via which an input 24 and two outputs 20, 22 of the charging unit 10 can be contacted with the connection 56 of the power distribution unit 30.
- the input 24 of the charging unit 10 is connected to a second pole 42 of the charging connection 50 .
- a switch 18 is provided in the charging unit 10, which switches through the input 24 of the charging unit 10 to an input 26 of a DC-DC converter 12 of the charging unit 10.
- the DC-DC converter 12 is designed as a step-up converter and has an input capacitance 14 at its input and an output capacitance 16 at its output. By connecting the output 20 of the charging unit 10 to the output capacitance 16 and the input capacitance 14, the output 20 is also used as an input of the charging unit 10 at the same time.
- it is a galvanically coupled DC-DC converter 12 with a coupling in the upper path, ie in the plus path, with the outputs 20, 22 and the input 24 and the output 20 as a simultaneous additional input.
- first switch 32 and second switch 34 of power distribution unit 30 are closed and third switch 18 of charging unit 10 open.
- the first DC voltage is thus present between the first output 36 and the second output 38 of the power distributor 30 and the energy store 60 can be charged with the first DC voltage.
- the first output 20 of the charging unit 10 is switched to one of the outputs 36, 38 of the power distribution unit 30, to the first output 36 in the exemplary embodiment in FIG.
- the second output 22 of the charging unit 10 is connected to the other of the outputs 36, 38 of the power distribution unit 30, to the second output 38 in FIG. As shown, this path can be secured with an optional fuse 46 .
- first switch 32 In the second state of charge, in which in particular the first DC voltage at charging connection 50 is less than the setpoint voltage of electrical energy store 60, first switch 32 is closed and thus first output 20 of charging unit 10 is also closed via closed first switch 32 of power distribution unit 30 connected to the first pole 40 of the charging connection 50 and directly to the first output 36 of the power distribution unit 30 .
- the second switch 34 of the power distribution unit 30 remains open.
- the second output 22 of the charging unit 10 is permanently connected to the second output 38 of the power distribution unit 30 .
- the input 24 of the charging unit 10 is thus connected to the second pole 42 of the charging connection 50 .
- the third switch 18 of the charging unit 10 is closed.
- the input 26 of the DC voltage converter 12 is thus connected to the second pole 42 of the charging connection 50 .
- the first DC voltage present at the charging connection 50 is therefore applied directly to the DC-DC converter 12 and can be converted by it into a second DC voltage, which is then switched to the first and second outputs 36, 38 of the power distribution unit 30.
- the energy store 60 can thus be charged with the second direct voltage.
- the positive of the two poles 40, 42 of the charging connection 50, here pole 40 thus represents a common reference in the second state of charge of the first DC voltage present at the charging connection 50 and the second DC voltage present at the first output 36 and the second output 38 of the power distribution unit 30 In this way, it is advantageously possible to connect the charging unit 10 to the power distribution unit 30 by means of three-pole connections 54, 56.
- an electrical energy store 60 with a target voltage of more than 500 V, for example 800 V can also be charged at a charging station with an output voltage of less than 500 V, for example 400 V.
- the first DC voltage can be switched through directly to the outputs 36, 38 of the power distribution unit 30 in the first state of charge and the energy store 60 can be charged with a high current, for example 500 A.
- the first electrical connection 52 of the power distribution unit 30 has a two-pole high-current plug connector.
- the first direct voltage is not switched through directly, but rather is fed to the input 26 of the direct-current converter 12, which converts the first direct voltage of 400 V into a second direct voltage of 800 V.
- This second DC voltage of 800 V is then switched to the outputs 36, 38 of the power distribution unit 30 and the energy store 60 is thus charged.
- This charging process can advantageously be carried out with a lower current, for example 125 A for a charging capacity of 50 kW, so that the two plug connectors 54, 56 between the charging unit 10 and the power distribution unit 30 only have to have three-pin plug connectors for the lower rated current of the DC/DC converter 12.
- FIG. 2 shows a vehicle 200 with a charging device 100 according to the invention in a schematic representation.
- the vehicle 200 is shown in a plan view.
- charging connection 50 is shown, which in turn is electrically connected to power distribution unit 30 .
- the power distribution unit 30 has electrical connections to the charging unit 10 and the electrical energy store 60 .
- FIG. 3 shows a flow chart of a method for charging an electrical energy store 60 of an electrically operable vehicle 200 according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention.
- the method starts with a first DC voltage present at the charging connection 50 being determined in step S100 and being compared with a setpoint voltage of the electrical energy store 60 in step S102.
- the determination of the adjoining The first DC voltage normally takes place using communication between the vehicle and the charging station, in which the charging station transmits the maximum available voltage to the vehicle as the first DC voltage.
- step S104 the first and the second switches 32, 34 of the power distribution unit 30 for connecting the charging connection 50 to the first output 36 and the second output 38 of the power distribution unit 30 are closed.
- the first DC voltage is thus switched to the first output 36 and the second output 38 via the first and second switches 32, 34 in step S106.
- the electrical energy store 60 can thus be charged with the first direct voltage in step S108.
- the first switch 32 for connecting is activated in step S110 of the first pole 40 of the charging connection 50 with the first output 36 of the electrical energy store and the first output 20 of the charging unit 10 closed.
- step S112 the second switch 34 of the power distribution unit 30 remains open.
- the input 24 of the charging unit 10 is connected to the second pole 42 of the charging connection 50 .
- the closed switch 34 is opened in step S112.
- step S114 the third switch 18 of the charging unit 10 for connecting the input 24 of the charging unit 10 to the input 26 of the DC-DC converter 12 of the charging unit 10 is closed.
- step S116 the second DC voltage converted by the charging unit 10 is switched to the first output 36 and the second output 38 of the power distribution unit 30.
- the electrical energy store 60 can thus be charged with the second DC voltage in step S118.
