也即是说,步骤011可以由电池管理模块10配合已接入电池210实现。步骤012可以由电池管理模块10配合待接入电池220实现。步骤013可以由待接入电池220配合供电接口20实现。电机管理模块10可以是一个或多个能实现电池管理的通用或者专用处理器。In other words, step 011 can be implemented by the battery management module 10 in cooperation with the battery 210 that has been connected.

具体地,已接入电池210为已经与供电接口20接通并给无人机100进行供电的电池200,待接入电池220为未与供电接口20接通且并没有给无人机100进行供电的电池200。在无人机100接入了已接入电池210且已接入电池210与供电接口20接通后即可正常开机上电,在想要添加新的待接入电池220为无人机100进行供电时,先将待接入电池220安 装到无人机100上,此时无人机100的电池管理模块10可与待接入电池220电性连接,从而电池管理模块10可与待接入电池220进行通信以获取到待接入电池220的电池信息,电池管理模块10还可以与已接入电池210进行通信以获取已接入电池210的电池信息。Specifically, the connected battery 210 is the battery 200 that has been connected to the power supply interface 20 and supplies power to the drone 100, and the to-be-connected battery 220 is not connected to the power supply interface 20 and does not provide power to the drone 100. Powered by battery 200. After the drone 100 is connected to the connected battery 210 and the connected battery 210 is connected to the power supply interface 20, it can be powered on normally. When you want to add a new battery 220 to be connected, the drone 100 can perform When supplying power, first install the battery 220 to be connected to the drone 100. At this time, the battery management module 10 of the drone 100 can be electrically connected to the battery 220 to be connected, so that the battery management module 10 can be connected to the battery 220 to be connected. The battery 220 communicates to obtain the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected, and the battery management module 10 may also communicate with the connected battery 210 to obtain the battery information of the connected battery 210.
其中,电池信息可包括电池类型和电性参数,电池类型主要包括该电池200所使用的材料信息,例如该电池200为锂电池、锂聚合物电池等,无人机100对电池类型一般有要求,当不符合要求的电池类型的电池200接入后,可能引发各种安全问题,例如无法供电、电池200损坏、甚至电池200爆炸等电池200的安全问题。电性参数主要包括电池200的电压和电量中至少一种,当然,电性参数还可包括更多的信息如电流、功率等等,本申请以电性参数包括电压和电量为例进行说明。当待接入电池220的电性参数和已接入电池210的电性参数差异过大时,可能导致供电异常。例如,当待接入电池220的电压和已接入电池210的电压差异过大时,会导致待接入电池220和已接入电池210发生互充现象,从而带来不必要的电量损耗,降低电池200的使用效率;再例如,当待接入电池220的电量和已接入电池210的电量差异过大时,可能使得一个电池200(电量较少的电池200,如已接入电池210)已经快消耗完了,另一个电池200(如待接入电池220)仅消耗少部分电量,已接入电池210不仅无法继续供电,而且还相当于增加了无人机100的负重,加重了电量的消耗,影响无人机100的续航能力。因此,在待接入电池220的电量和已接入电池210的电量差异过大时,可更换电量较少的电池200以保证无人机100的续航能力。Among them, the battery information may include battery type and electrical parameters. The battery type mainly includes material information used by the battery 200. For example, the battery 200 is a lithium battery, a lithium polymer battery, etc., and the drone 100 generally has requirements for the battery type. When the battery 200 of the battery type that does not meet the requirements is connected, various safety problems may be caused, such as the safety problems of the battery 200 such as failure to supply power, damage to the battery 200, or even explosion of the battery 200. The electrical parameters mainly include at least one of the voltage and power of the battery 200. Of course, the electrical parameters may also include more information such as current, power, etc. The present application takes the electrical parameters including voltage and power as an example for description. When the electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected and the electrical parameters of the battery 210 are too different, the power supply may be abnormal. For example, when the difference between the voltage of the battery 220 to be connected and the voltage of the battery 210 connected is too large, the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 connected to each other will be charged mutually, thereby causing unnecessary power loss. Reduce the use efficiency of the battery 200; for another example, when the power of the battery 220 to be connected and the power of the connected battery 210 are too large, one battery 200 (the battery 200 with less power, such as the battery 210 is connected ) Is almost exhausted. Another battery 200 (such as the battery 220 to be connected) consumes only a small amount of power. The connected battery 210 not only cannot continue to supply power, but also increases the weight of the drone 100 and increases the power. The consumption affects the endurance of UAV 100. Therefore, when the difference between the power of the battery 220 to be connected and the power of the battery 210 is too large, the battery 200 with less power can be replaced to ensure the endurance of the drone 100.
电池管理模块10在获取到待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池信息后,匹配待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池信息,在待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池信息匹配时,待接入电池220才可以与供电接口20接通变为后接入电池230以和已接入电池210一起为无人机100供电,后接入电池230和已接入电池210实质上均为与供电接口20接通并为无人机100进行供电的电池200,也即是说,后接入电池230也是已接入电池210。例如,如图2所示的待接入电池220在与已接入电池210匹配后即变为后接入电池230。后续接入的待接入电池220,不仅要和已接入电池210匹配,还需要与实际上作为已接入电池210的后接入电池230进行匹配。After the battery management module 10 obtains the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 that has been connected, it matches the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 that has been connected. When the battery information of 210 matches, the connected battery 220 can be connected to the power supply interface 20 and then connected to the battery 230 to power the drone 100 together with the connected battery 210, and then connected to the battery 230 and connected The input battery 210 is essentially a battery 200 that is connected to the power supply interface 20 and supplies power to the drone 100, that is to say, the battery 230 is also connected to the battery 210 after it is connected. For example, the battery 220 to be connected as shown in FIG. 2 becomes the battery 230 after being connected after being matched with the battery 210 already connected. The battery 220 to be connected subsequently connected not only needs to be matched with the connected battery 210, but also needs to be matched with the rear connected battery 230 that is actually the connected battery 210.
其中,待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池信息匹配包括:待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池类型匹配,例如,待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池类型需要相同,已接入电池210为锂电池,则待接入电池220也需要为锂电池;或者,待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电性参数匹配,例如待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电性参数的差值需要在预定范围内;或者,待接入电池220的电池类型与已接入电池210的电池类型匹配,及待接入电池220的电性参数与已接入电池210的电性参数匹配,例如,待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池类型要相同,且待接入电池220和已接入电池210的 电性参数的差值在预定范围内。在待接入电池220和已接入电池210不匹配时,待接入电池220无法与供电接口20接通以为无人机100供电,避免了与已接入电池210不匹配的待接入电池220为无人机100供电导致的无人机100的异常问题的出现。Wherein, the battery information matching between the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 connected includes: the battery type of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected are matched, for example, the battery to be connected 220 and the battery of the battery 210 are connected The types need to be the same. The connected battery 210 is a lithium battery, and the battery 220 to be connected also needs to be a lithium battery; or the electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected match, for example, the battery 220 to be connected The difference between the electrical parameters and the electrical parameters of the connected battery 210 needs to be within a predetermined range; or, the battery type of the battery 220 to be connected matches the battery type of the connected battery 210, and the electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected Match the electrical parameters of the connected battery 210, for example, the battery type of the connected battery 220 and the connected battery 210 should be the same, and the difference between the electrical parameters of the connected battery 220 and the connected battery 210 Within the predetermined range. When the battery 220 to be connected does not match the battery 210 that has been connected, the battery 220 to be connected cannot be connected to the power supply interface 20 to supply power to the drone 100, which avoids the battery to be connected that does not match the battery 210 that has been connected The abnormal problem of the UAV 100 caused by 220 power supply to the UAV 100 occurs.
可以理解,现有的无人机100若采用类似本申请的多个电池200的方案进行供电,由于缺乏合理的电池管理策略,在接入第一个电池200开机后,若需要再次接入第二个电池200,一般需要将无人机100断电,将第二个及之后插入的电池200接入后,再进行开机上电操作以防止供电出现异常,严重影响了多电池200使用的便利性,无法实现电池200的动态拔插,且当待接入电池220和已接入电池210不匹配时还可能导致无人机100发生如无法供电、电池200损坏、供电效率降低等异常问题。It is understandable that if the existing drone 100 adopts a scheme similar to the multiple batteries 200 of the present application for power supply, due to the lack of a reasonable battery management strategy, after the first battery 200 is switched on, if the first battery 200 needs to be switched on again, Two batteries 200, generally need to power off the drone 100, connect the second and later batteries 200 inserted, and then turn on the power to prevent abnormal power supply, which seriously affects the convenience of using the multi-battery 200 The battery 200 cannot be dynamically plugged and unplugged, and when the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected do not match, it may also cause the drone 100 to have abnormal problems such as power failure, damage to the battery 200, and reduced power supply efficiency.
本申请的电池管理模块10可获取待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池信息,无需将无人机100断电后再接入待接入电池220,而是在无人机100上电状态即可插入,插入后不会立刻供电,而是先判断待接入电池220和已接入电池210是否匹配,在待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池信息匹配(即待接入电池220不会产生供电异常问题)时才将待接入电池220和供电接口20接通,不仅可实现动态拔插,多电池200的使用便利性较强,且可防止与已接入电池210不匹配的待接入电池220为无人机100进行供电时导致的无人机100的异常问题的出现,从而保证了供电安全性。The battery management module 10 of the present application can obtain the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 that has been connected. There is no need to power off the drone 100 and then connect to the battery 220 to be connected, but on the drone 100 It can be plugged in when it is in the power state. After plugging in, it will not supply power immediately, but first determine whether the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected match. When the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected match (that is, the battery information to be connected) Connecting the battery 220 will not cause abnormal power supply problems). Only connect the battery 220 to be connected to the power supply interface 20, which can not only realize dynamic plugging and insertion, but also the convenience of using the multi-battery 200, and it can prevent the connection with the connected battery. The abnormal problem of the UAV 100 caused by the unmatched battery 220 to be connected to the UAV 100 when the battery 210 is not matched to power the UAV 100, thereby ensuring the safety of power supply.
请参阅图2和图3,在某些实施方式中,在待接入电池220的电池信息与能给无人机100供电的电池200的预设信息匹配,且待接入电池220的电池信息与已接入电池210的电池信息匹配时,待接入电池220与供电接口20电性接通变成后接入电池230并与已接入电池210一起给无人机100供电。2 and 3, in some embodiments, the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected matches the preset information of the battery 200 that can power the drone 100, and the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected When the battery information matches the battery information of the connected battery 210, the battery 220 to be connected is electrically connected to the power supply interface 20 and then the battery 230 is connected and the battery 210 is connected to power the drone 100 together.
具体地,为了进一步确认待接入电池220是否适用当前无人机100,除了判断待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池信息是否匹配外,还需要判断待接入电池220的电池信息和能够给无人机100进行供电的电池200的预设信息是否匹配,其中,预设信息包括预设电池类型和预设电性参数,当然,预设信息还可包括更多与电池性能参数有关的信息,在此不做限制,本申请仅以预设信息包括预设电池类型和预设电性参数进行说明。预设电池类型指的是能够给无人机100进行供电的电池200的类型,例如无人机100要求的电池类型为锂电池、锂聚合物电池等,预设电性参数包括电压、电量等信息,例如无人机100要求的供电电压为5V,要求的电量为4000毫安时。由于可能存在待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池信息匹配,但待接入电池220并不能适用当前无人机100的情况,例如,无人机100要求的预设电性参数包括预设电压,预设电压为9伏(V)到11V,要求待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电压差不超过2V,而已接入电池210在用户使用无人机100一段时间后,已接入电池210由于电量的损耗,实际供电电压由原本的11V变为了10V, 当待接入电池220的电压为12V时,待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电压差为2V,满足待接入电池220和已接入电池210的电池信息的匹配标准。然而,待接入电池220的电压不在能给无人机100供电的电池的预设电压的范围内,因此,待接入电池220不应该给无人机100进行供电。Specifically, in order to further confirm whether the battery 220 to be connected is suitable for the current drone 100, in addition to determining whether the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected match, it is also necessary to determine the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected Whether it matches the preset information of the battery 200 capable of supplying power to the drone 100, where the preset information includes preset battery types and preset electrical parameters. Of course, the preset information may also include more battery performance parameters. Relevant information is not limited here, and this application only describes the preset information including the preset battery type and preset electrical parameters. The preset battery type refers to the type of battery 200 that can power the drone 100. For example, the battery type required by the drone 100 is lithium battery, lithium polymer battery, etc., and the preset electrical parameters include voltage, power, etc. Information, for example, the power supply voltage required by the UAV 100 is 5V, and the required power amount is 4000 mAh. Since there may be a match between the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 that has been connected, the battery 220 to be connected is not applicable to the current situation of the drone 100. For example, the preset electrical parameters required by the drone 100 include The preset voltage, the preset voltage is 9V (V) to 11V, it is required that the voltage difference between the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected does not exceed 2V, and the battery 210 is connected after the user has used the drone 100 for a period of time , Due to the power loss of the connected battery 210, the actual power supply voltage is changed from the original 11V to 10V. When the voltage of the battery 220 to be connected is 12V, the voltage difference between the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected is 2V , To meet the matching standard of the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 that has been connected. However, the voltage of the battery 220 to be connected is not within the preset voltage range of the battery that can supply power to the drone 100. Therefore, the battery 220 to be connected should not supply power to the drone 100.
为了防止上述情况的出现,无人机100可以在待接入电池220的电池信息与能给无人机100供电的电池200的预设信息匹配,且待接入电池220的电池信息与已接入电池210的电池信息匹配时,才确定待接入电池220符合无人机100的电池200要求。其中,待接入电池220的电池信息与能给无人机100供电的电池200的预设信息匹配包括:待接入电池220和预设电池类型匹配,例如,待接入电池220和预设电池类型需要相同,预设电池类型为锂电池,则待接入电池220也需要为锂电池;或者,待接入电池220和预设电性参数匹配,例如待接入电池220和预设电性参数的差值需要在预定范围内;或者,待接入电池220的电池类型与预设电池类型匹配,及待接入电池220的电性参数与预设电性参数匹配,例如,待接入电池220和预设电池类型要相同,且待接入电池220和预设电性参数的差值在预定范围内。在匹配完成后,再将待接入电池220与供电接口20电性接通变成后接入电池230并与已接入电池210一起给无人机100供电。在待接入电池220的电池信息与能给无人机100供电的电池200的预设信息匹配,且待接入电池220的电池信息与已接入电池210的电池信息匹配时,待接入电池220与供电接口20电性才接通变成后接入电池230并与已接入电池210一起给无人机100供电,能够进一步提升电池使用的安全性。In order to prevent the occurrence of the above situation, the drone 100 can match the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected with the preset information of the battery 200 that can power the drone 100, and the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected is the same as that of the connected battery. When the battery information of the input battery 210 matches, it is determined that the battery 220 to be connected meets the requirements of the battery 200 of the drone 100. Wherein, the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected to match the preset information of the battery 200 that can power the drone 100 includes: the battery to be connected 220 matches the preset battery type, for example, the battery to be connected 220 and the preset information The battery types need to be the same. If the preset battery type is a lithium battery, the battery to be connected 220 also needs to be a lithium battery; or, the battery to be connected 220 matches the preset electrical parameters, for example, the battery to be connected 220 and the preset battery The difference of the electrical parameters needs to be within a predetermined range; or, the battery type of the battery 220 to be connected matches the preset battery type, and the electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected match the preset electrical parameters, for example, the battery to be connected The input battery 220 and the preset battery type must be the same, and the difference between the battery 220 to be connected and the preset electrical parameter is within a predetermined range. After the matching is completed, the battery 220 to be connected to the power supply interface 20 is electrically connected to the battery 230 to be connected and the battery 210 is connected to power the drone 100 together. When the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected matches the preset information of the battery 200 that can power the drone 100, and the battery information of the battery 220 to be connected matches the battery information of the battery 210 that has been connected, the battery is to be connected The battery 220 is electrically connected to the power supply interface 20, and then the battery 230 is connected to the battery 230 and together with the connected battery 210 to supply power to the drone 100, which can further improve the safety of battery use.
另外,当无人机100接入第一块电池200进行上电时,此时由于没有已接入电池210,只需要判断该电池200是否和能给无人机100供电的电池200的预设信息匹配即可,从而保证所有接入无人机100的电池200均适用当前无人机100,保证电池200的使用安全性。In addition, when the drone 100 is connected to the first battery 200 to be powered on, since the battery 210 is not connected at this time, it is only necessary to determine whether the battery 200 is compatible with the preset battery 200 that can power the drone 100 The information can be matched to ensure that all batteries 200 connected to the UAV 100 are suitable for the current UAV 100, and the safety of the battery 200 is ensured.
在某些实施方式中,电性参数包括电压和电量,待接入电池220的电性参数与已接入电池210的电性参数匹配可以是待接入电池220的电性参数与已接入电池210对应的电性参数之间的差值的绝对值在预定范围内。In some embodiments, the electrical parameters include voltage and power. The electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected and the electrical parameters of the connected battery 210 may match the electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected and the electrical parameters of the connected battery 220. The absolute value of the difference between the electrical parameters corresponding to the battery 210 is within a predetermined range.
具体地,预定范围包括预定电压范围和预定电量范围,在判断待接入电池220的电性参数与已接入电池210的电性参数是否匹配时,可以分别判断待接入电池220的电压和已接入电池210的电压的差值的绝对值是否在预定电压范围内,再判断待接入电池220的电量和已接入电池210的电量的差值的绝对值是否在预定电量范围内,在待接入电池220的电压和已接入电池210的电压的差值的绝对值在预定电压范围内,且待接入电池220的电量和已接入电池210的电量的差值的绝对值在预定电量范围内时,才确定待接入电池220的电性参数与已接入电池210的电性参数匹配。例如,预定电压范围为0V到3V,预定电量范围0毫安时(mAh)到1000mAh。待接入电池220的电压为5V,电量为3000mAh。 已接入电池210的电压为7V,电量为3500mAh。待接入电池220的电压和已接入电池210的电压的差值的绝对值|5-7|=2V,处于预定电压范围内,待接入电池220的电压与已接入电池210的电压相匹配。待接入电池220的电量和已接入电池210的电量的差值的绝对值|3000-3500|=500mAh,处于预定电量范围内,待接入电池220的电量与已接入电池210的电量相匹配。因此,待接入电池220的电性参数与已接入电池210的电性参数匹配。如此,无人机100可准确地判断待接入电池220的电性参数与已接入电池210的电性参数是否匹配。Specifically, the predetermined range includes a predetermined voltage range and a predetermined power range. When determining whether the electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected and the electrical parameters of the battery 210 to be connected match, the voltage and the voltage of the battery 220 to be connected can be determined respectively. Whether the absolute value of the difference between the voltage of the connected battery 210 is within the predetermined voltage range, and then determine whether the absolute value of the difference between the power of the battery 220 to be connected and the power of the connected battery 210 is within the predetermined power range, The absolute value of the difference between the voltage of the connected battery 220 and the voltage of the connected battery 210 is within a predetermined voltage range, and the absolute value of the difference between the power of the connected battery 220 and the power of the connected battery 210 When it is within the predetermined power range, it is determined that the electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected match the electrical parameters of the battery 210 that has been connected. For example, the predetermined voltage range is 0V to 3V, and the predetermined power range is 0 milliampere hour (mAh) to 1000mAh. The voltage of the battery 220 to be connected is 5V, and the power is 3000 mAh. The voltage of the connected battery 210 is 7V, and the power is 3500mAh. The absolute value of the difference between the voltage of the battery 220 to be connected and the voltage of the battery 210 that has been connected |5-7|=2V, within the predetermined voltage range, the voltage of the battery 220 to be connected and the voltage of the battery 210 that have been connected Match. The absolute value of the difference between the power of the battery 220 to be connected and the power of the battery 210 that has been connected |3000-3500|=500mAh, which is within the predetermined power range, the power of the battery 220 to be connected and the power of the battery 210 that have been connected Match. Therefore, the electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected match the electrical parameters of the battery 210 that has been connected. In this way, the drone 100 can accurately determine whether the electrical parameters of the battery 220 to be connected and the electrical parameters of the battery 210 that have been connected match.
而在待接入电池220的任一电性参数和已接入电池210的对应的电性参数不匹配时,确定待接入电池220和已接入电池210不匹配。例如,电性参数包括电压和电量,预定电压范围为0V到2V,预定电量范围0毫安时(mAh)到1000mAh。待接入电池220的电压为5V,电量为3000mAh。已接入电池210的电压为6V,电量为4500mAh。待接入电池220的电压和已接入电池210的电压的差值的绝对值|5-6|=1V,处于预定电压范围内,待接入电池220的电压与已接入电池210的电压相匹配。待接入电池220的电量和已接入电池210的电量的差值的绝对值|3000-4500|=1500mAh,不处于预定电量范围内,待接入电池220的电量与已接入电池210的电量不匹配,由于存在一个电性参数不匹配,则可确定待接入电池220和已接入电池210不匹配。如此,可保证待接入电池220和已接入电池210的匹配准确性。When any electrical parameter of the battery 220 to be connected does not match the corresponding electrical parameter of the battery 210 connected, it is determined that the battery 220 to be connected does not match the battery 210 connected. For example, the electrical parameters include voltage and power, the predetermined voltage range is 0V to 2V, and the predetermined power range is 0 milliampere hour (mAh) to 1000mAh. The voltage of the battery 220 to be connected is 5V, and the power is 3000 mAh. The voltage of the connected battery 210 is 6V, and the power is 4500 mAh. The absolute value of the difference between the voltage of the battery 220 to be connected and the voltage of the battery 210 that has been connected |5-6| = 1V, within a predetermined voltage range, the voltage of the battery 220 to be connected and the voltage of the battery 210 that have been connected Match. The absolute value of the difference between the power of the battery 220 to be connected and the power of the battery 210 that has been connected |3000-4500|=1500mAh, which is not within the predetermined power range, the power of the battery 220 to be connected and the power of the battery 210 that have been connected The electric quantity does not match. Since there is an electrical parameter mismatch, it can be determined that the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected do not match. In this way, the matching accuracy of the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 already connected can be guaranteed.

Wherein, the voltage conversion module 203 and the power conversion module 30 may be any device capable of realizing high and low voltage conversion, and the voltage conversion module 203 and the power conversion module 30 may include a transformer or a voltage conversion chip.
具体地,本申请的电池200为带有控制芯片202(如微控制单元(Microcontroller Unit;MCU)的智能电池200,控制芯片202可实时获取电池200的电池信息(如前述提到的电池类型、电性参数等信息)。已接入电池210的电压转换模块203(下称第一电压转换模块)可将已接入电池210的电芯201(下称第一电芯)提供的第一电压转换为第二电压,提供给已接入电池210的控制芯片202(下称第一控制芯片),使得第一控制芯片通电工作,由于只需维持第一控制芯片的正常工作,第二电压可低于第一电压,例如,第一电压为强电,如为11.5V,第二电压可以为弱电,如为5V。电源转换模块30可将第一电芯输出的第一电压转换为第三电压,以给无人机100的电池管理模块10进行供电,由于单独给电池管理模块10进行供电,第三电压可低于第一电压,例如,第一电压为强电,如为11.5V,第三电压可以为弱电,如为5V,第三电压可以和第二电压相同,也可以不同。通电后工作的电池管理模块10可与通电后工作的第一控制芯片进行通信(电池管理模块10不通电就不会工作,第一控制芯片不通电也不会工作),从而电池管理模块10可以获取到第一控制芯片内的已接入电池210的电池信息。如此,电池管理模块10与控制芯片202在接入弱电时即可进行通信,从而电池管理模块10可以快速获取到已接入电池210的电池信息,只有待接入电池220的电池信息与已接入电池210的电池信息匹配时,待接入电池220与供电接口20电性才接通变成后接入电池并与已接入电池210一起给无人机1000提供强电;或者,只有待接入电池220的电池信息与能给无人机100供电的电池200的预设信息匹配,且待接入电池220的电池信息与已接入电池210的电池信息匹配时,待接入电池220与供电接口20电性才接通变成后接入电池230并与已接入电池210一起给无人机100供电。Specifically, the battery 200 of the present application is a smart battery 200 with a control chip 202 (such as a Microcontroller Unit (MCU)).

Since only the normal operation of the first control chip needs to be maintained, the second voltage can be used. Lower than the first voltage, for example, the first voltage is a strong current, such as 11.5V, and the second voltage can be a weak current, such as 5V. The power conversion module 30 can convert the first voltage output by the first cell into a third The voltage is used to supply power to the battery management module 10 of the drone 100.

请参阅图2、图3和图5,在某些实施方式中,在电池200作为已接入电池210为无人机100供电之前,电池200管理方法包括:Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 3, and FIG. 5, in some embodiments, before the battery 200 is used as the connected battery 210 to power the drone 100, the battery 200 management method includes:
014:电池200的电压转换模块203将电池200的电芯201输出的第一电压转换为第二电压以提供给电池200的控制芯片202及电池管理模块10;014: The voltage conversion module 203 of the battery 200 converts the first voltage output by the cell 201 of the battery 200 into a second voltage to provide the control chip 202 of the battery 200 and the battery management module 10;
015:电池管理模块10与电池200的控制芯片202通信以获取电池200的电池信息;015: The battery management module 10 communicates with the control chip 202 of the battery 200 to obtain battery information of the battery 200;
016:在电池200的电池信息与能给无人机100供电的电池200的预设信息匹配时,电池200的控制开关204导通以将电池200接入而为无人机100供电。016: When the battery information of the battery 200 matches the preset information of the battery 200 that can power the drone 100, the control switch 204 of the battery 200 is turned on to connect the battery 200 to power the drone 100.
也即是说,步骤014可以由电压转换模块203配合电芯201实现,步骤015可以由电池管理模块10与控制芯片202实现,步骤016可以由控制开关204实现。In other words, step 014 can be implemented by the voltage conversion module 203 in cooperation with the battery cell 201, step 015 can be implemented by the battery management module 10 and the control chip 202, and step 016 can be implemented by the control switch 204.
具体地,在电池200作为已接入电池210为无人机100供电之前(即,此时不存在已接入电池210,无人机100准备接入第一块电池200进行上电),电池200的电芯201提供的第一电压(强电)会被电池200的电压转换模块203转换为第二电压(弱电)并提供给 电池200的控制芯片202,以使控制芯片202在第二电压下工作。控制芯片202控制电池200的控制开关204断开,以使电池200的电芯201与无人机100的供电接口20断开,以防止电池200直接以第一电压给无人机100供电,其中,控制开关204可以是场效应晶体管,例如金属-氧化物半导体场效应管(metal-oxide semiconductor FET,简称MOS-FET)。此时,由于电池200的电芯201未以第一电压直接为无人机100供电,因此,电源转换模块30无法将第一电压转换为第三电压以提供给电池管理模块10,此时电池200的电压转换模块203可将电池200的电芯201提供的第一电压(强电)转换为第二电压(弱电),并提供给无人机100的电池管理模块10,以为电池管理模块10供弱电。电池管理模块10在第二电压(弱电)下工作后,电池管理模块10可与控制芯片202进行通信以从控制芯片202处获取电池信息,并判断电池信息是否和给无人机100进行供电的电池的预设信息(如前述的预设电池类型和预设电性参数等信息)相匹配,在电池信息和预设信息相匹配时,电池管理模块10可发出接通指令给控制芯片202,控制芯片202控制电池200的控制开关204导通,以使电池200的电芯201与无人机100的供电接口20接通,从而使得电池200的电芯201以第一电压为无人机100进行供电(供强电),此时,第一块电池200即作为已接入电池210为无人机100进行供电(供强电),电池200的电压转换模块203无需再为无人机100的电池管理模块10供第二电压的弱电。在此之后,若是电池管理模块10还要与该第一块电池200的控制芯片202通信以获取该第一块电池200的电池信息,则是由无人机100的电源转换模块30将第一电压转换为第三电压以为电池管理模块10进行供弱电,在弱电环境下,电池管理模块10与该第一块电池200的控制芯片202通信。如此,电池管理模块10可在电池200的电芯201以第一电压为无人机100进行供电前,先判断电池信息和给无人机100进行供电的电池200的预设信息是否匹配,保证只有适用无人机100的电池200才能够以第一电压为无人机100的所有部件进行供电。Specifically, before the battery 200 is used as the connected battery 210 to power the drone 100 (that is, there is no connected battery 210 at this time, and the drone 100 is ready to be connected to the first battery 200 for power-on), the battery The first voltage (strong current) provided by the battery cell 201 of the 200 will be converted into the second voltage (weak current) by the voltage conversion module 203 of the battery 200 and provided to the control chip 202 of the battery 200 so that the control chip 202 is at the second voltage Work down. The control chip 202 controls the control switch 204 of the battery 200 to be turned off, so that the cell 201 of the battery 200 is disconnected from the power supply interface 20 of the drone 100, so as to prevent the battery 200 from directly supplying power to the drone 100 at the first voltage. The control switch 204 may be a field effect transistor, such as a metal-oxide semiconductor FET (MOS-FET for short). At this time, since the cell 201 of the battery 200 does not directly supply power to the drone 100 with the first voltage, the power conversion module 30 cannot convert the first voltage to the third voltage to provide to the battery management module 10. At this time, the battery The voltage conversion module 203 of the 200 can convert the first voltage (strong current) provided by the cells 201 of the battery 200 into a second voltage (weak current), and provide the second voltage (weak current) to the battery management module 10 of the drone 100 to form the battery management module 10 Supply weak electricity. After the battery management module 10 works under the second voltage (weak current), the battery management module 10 can communicate with the control chip 202 to obtain battery information from the control chip 202, and determine whether the battery information is compatible with the power supply for the drone 100 The preset information of the battery (such as the aforementioned preset battery type and preset electrical parameters) matches. When the battery information matches the preset information, the battery management module 10 can issue a switch-on instruction to the control chip 202. The control chip 202 controls the control switch 204 of the battery 200 to be turned on, so that the cell 201 of the battery 200 is connected to the power supply interface 20 of the drone 100, so that the cell 201 of the battery 200 uses the first voltage as the drone 100. Power supply (power supply), at this time, the first battery 200 is used as the connected battery 210 to power the drone 100 (power supply), and the voltage conversion module 203 of the battery 200 does not need to be the drone 100 anymore The battery management module 10 provides a weak current at the second voltage. After that, if the battery management module 10 still needs to communicate with the control chip 202 of the first battery 200 to obtain the battery information of the first battery 200, the power conversion module 30 of the drone 100 will The voltage is converted into a third voltage to supply weak current to the battery management module 10. In a weak current environment, the battery management module 10 communicates with the control chip 202 of the first battery 200. In this way, the battery management module 10 may first determine whether the battery information matches the preset information of the battery 200 that supplies power to the drone 100 before the battery cell 201 of the battery 200 uses the first voltage to supply power to the drone 100, so as to ensure Only the battery 200 applicable to the drone 100 can supply power to all the components of the drone 100 with the first voltage.
另外,在第一电芯201提供第一电压给无人机100进行供电时,无人机100内部设置的电源转换模块30可将第一电压转换为无人机100内部各部件所需要的电压以使得无人机100内的各个部件以各自的工作电压正常运行。例如,第一电压为11.5V,电源转换模块30可将第一电压转换为5V、7V、12V等,分别提供给无人机100的电池管理模块10、飞控系统、动力装置等部件以使它们正常工作。In addition, when the first battery 201 provides the first voltage to supply power to the drone 100, the power conversion module 30 provided inside the drone 100 can convert the first voltage into the voltage required by the components inside the drone 100 In this way, the various components in the drone 100 operate normally at their respective operating voltages. For example, if the first voltage is 11.5V, the power conversion module 30 can convert the first voltage into 5V, 7V, 12V, etc., and provide them to the battery management module 10, flight control system, power unit and other components of the drone 100 respectively to enable They work normally.

0121:待接入电池220的电压转换模块203用于将待接入电池220的电芯201输出的第四电压转换为第五电压以提供给待接入电池220的控制芯片202,第五电压低于第四电 压;0121: The voltage conversion module 203 of the battery 220 to be connected is used to convert the fourth voltage output by the cell 201 of the battery 220 to be connected into a fifth voltage to provide to the control chip 202 of the battery 220 to be connected, the fifth voltage Lower than the fourth voltage;
0122:电池管理模块10与待接入电池220的控制芯片202通信以获取待接入电池220的电池信息。0122: The battery management module 10 communicates with the control chip 202 of the battery 220 to be connected to obtain battery information of the battery 220 to be connected.
也即是说,步骤0121可以由待接入电池220的电压转换模块203和待接入电池220的电芯201配合实现,步骤0122可以由电池管理模块10和待接入电池220的控制芯片202实现。In other words, step 0121 can be implemented by the voltage conversion module 203 of the battery 220 to be connected to the battery 220 and the battery core 201 of the battery 220 to be connected, and step 0122 can be implemented by the battery management module 10 and the control chip 202 of the battery 220 to be connected achieve.
具体地,待接入电池220用于输出第四电压,第四电压可以和已接入电池210的第一电压相同,也可以不同,例如第四电压可大于第一电压,或第四电压可小于第一电压,只需第四电压和第一电压的差值的绝对值在预定范围内,即,待接入电池220和已接入电池210匹配即可。待接入电池220的电压转换模块203(下称第二电压转换模块)可将待接入电池220的电芯201(下称第二电芯)输出的第四电压转换为第五电压,以提供给待接入电池220的控制芯片202(下称第二控制芯片),使得第二控制芯片通电工作,由于只需要维持第二控制芯片的正常工作,第五电压可低于第四电压,例如第四电压为强电,如为11.5V,第五电压可以为弱电,如为5V。在第二控制芯片以第五电压工作后,通电后工作的电池管理模块10和通电后工作的第二控制芯片进行通信即可从第二控制芯片处获取待接入电池220的电池信息。如此,电池管理模块10可在待接入电池220的电芯201以第四电压为无人机100进行供电前,获取到待接入电池220采集的电池信息。Specifically, the battery 220 to be connected is used to output the fourth voltage. The fourth voltage may be the same as or different from the first voltage of the connected battery 210. For example, the fourth voltage may be greater than the first voltage, or the fourth voltage may be Less than the first voltage, only the absolute value of the difference between the fourth voltage and the first voltage is within a predetermined range, that is, the battery 220 to be connected and the battery 210 to be connected match. The voltage conversion module 203 of the battery 220 to be connected (hereinafter referred to as the second voltage conversion module) can convert the fourth voltage output by the cell 201 (hereinafter referred to as the second cell) of the battery 220 to be connected into a fifth voltage to Provided to the control chip 202 (hereinafter referred to as the second control chip) of the battery 220 to be connected, so that the second control chip is energized to work. Since only the normal operation of the second control chip needs to be maintained, the fifth voltage can be lower than the fourth voltage, For example, the fourth voltage may be a strong current, such as 11.5V, and the fifth voltage may be a weak current, such as 5V.
