In a specific embodiment, as shown in fig. 1:
The active battery equalization circuit utilizing relevance of flyback transformers comprises a control unit, a driving unit and a rechargeable battery pack, wherein the control unit comprises a control singlechip, a driving circuit, a voltage sampling circuit, a current sampling circuit and a power supply circuit which are connected with the control singlechip, the driving unit comprises four groups of flyback circuit branches consisting of a driving MOS tube MA, MB, MC, MD and a flyback transformer TA, TB, TC, TD, the two groups of voltages output by the transformers are subjected to flyback rectification to be charged into battery packs A, B, C and D, the battery packs A are formed by serially connecting batteries A1 and A2, the battery packs B, C and D are respectively formed by B1, B2, C1, C2, D1 and D2, and the current sampling circuit comprises sampling resistors RA, RB, RC, RD. The circuit topology structure is described in detail below by taking a flyback circuit branch corresponding to a battery pack A as an example, an output end winding of a flyback transformer TA comprises two output ends which are respectively connected with batteries A1 and A2, one end of an input end winding of the flyback transformer TA is connected with a power supply, the other end of the input end winding of the flyback transformer TA is connected with a drain electrode of a driving MOS tube, a grid electrode of the driving MOS tube is connected with a driving circuit, a source electrode of the driving MOS tube is grounded after passing through a sampling resistor RA, and a voltage sampling circuit is correspondingly connected with an anode of the battery A2.
The output end winding of the flyback transformer TA comprises two output ends, the first output end is connected with the positive pole of the battery A2 in the morning through a diode DA2, the second output end is connected with the negative pole of the battery A1 through a reverse diode DA1, the middle point of the output end winding of the flyback transformer TA is connected with the middle points of the batteries A1 and A2 in series, and the circuit is used for reducing half of battery voltage sampling.
The power for the control system is supplied by a battery with a portion of the appropriate voltage being equalized.
The power input end of the power circuit is connected with the positive electrode of a battery with proper voltage, the embodiment is connected with the positive electrode of the battery B2, and the voltage can also be connected with the positive electrode of the battery A2 or the positive electrode of other batteries with proper voltages.
The working process of the equalizing circuit is as follows:
When the system control singlechip detects that the voltage of the battery pack A is lower than the average value, the MOS tube MA is pulsed through the driving circuit, the two symmetrical windings of the transformer TA are controlled to charge the batteries A1 and A2, and when the voltages of the batteries A1 and A2 are asymmetric, the transformer preferentially charges the battery with lower voltage. Thus, after a period of time, the voltages of the two batteries are automatically close, when the voltages of the two batteries are close, the current is automatically distributed according to the internal resistance of the batteries, and when the voltages of the two batteries reach the set voltage, the control circuit turns off the pulse of the power tube MA through the driving circuit to control the TA to turn off the charging circuit.
The control method of the equalization circuit comprises the following steps:
Step 1, testing total voltage before equalizing charge of batteries, and calculating average voltage of all battery packs;
step 2, testing the voltage of each group of battery packs in the circuit, calculating the voltage difference between the voltage of all the battery packs and the average voltage,
Step 3, judging the relation between the voltage difference value and a preset threshold value, executing step 4 when any group of voltage difference values are lower than the preset threshold value, otherwise, executing step 5;
step 4, opening a flyback transformer corresponding to the battery pack to charge the battery pack, stopping charging after a preset time is spent on charging, and returning to the step 2 and the step 3 until the voltages of all the battery packs are consistent;
And 5, stopping charging all the battery packs, waiting for a short period of time, and returning to the step 2.
In step 3 of this embodiment, the preset threshold is 1% of the average voltage, and in step 4, the preset charging time is one minute.
The small time in the step 5 can be set according to the needs, and a person skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning represented by the small time, and can set according to the needs without giving out specific time.
For example, in the figure, when the voltages of the battery groups A and C are lower than the average value, the charging circuits of the battery groups A and C are opened to charge the battery groups A and C, the voltages of the battery groups A and C are increased after charging, the voltages of the battery groups B and D are reduced, and if the voltages of the battery groups A and C are increased to the average voltage, the battery groups A and C are only charged in the next period, and the process is repeated until all the voltages are within the error range.
The equalization circuit has a charging protection function, and specifically comprises the following steps:
The charging process can be carried out at any time of charging and discharging, and the battery can be fully utilized. However, when the voltage of a certain battery is too low, the transformer for charging the battery cannot be reset, and the input current of the transformer is increased suddenly, at this time, pulse width charging is reduced, if the voltage cannot be increased after a period of charging, the battery is damaged, and the system can prompt the repair or replacement of the battery.
All power supply circuits of the equalizing circuit are provided by batteries of the system, wherein a control power supply of the system is powered by the batteries and is connected to the connection parts of the four batteries, and the batteries are unbalanced under the general condition, but because the equalization of the system happens at any time, the equalizing circuit can automatically increase current to power the power supply without influencing the equalization use of the batteries, and the control power supply can be simplified.
The working principle and working process of the sampling circuit of the equalizing circuit are as follows:
The sampling circuit of the equalizing circuit is divided into voltage sampling and current sampling, the voltage sampling corresponds to the current sampling one by one, the battery voltage of each two groups is measured, the charging current and the voltage sampling are formed by resistor voltage division, when the battery voltages are the same, the voltages on the AD sampling chips are the same, and the current sampling is amplified by an amplifier and then is sent to the AD sampling chips.
Average from the highest voltage sample, automatically equalize the battery voltage under the same transformer,
The control method for sampling pulsation sampling improves the sampling precision of the voltage, namely, a short charging period is set, sampling is not carried out during charging, charging is not carried out during sampling, and the influence of charging on sampling is avoided.
The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above. It is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the particular embodiments described above, in which circuits, devices and structures not described in detail are to be understood as being implemented in a manner common to the art, and that any person skilled in the art may make many possible variations and modifications to the technical solution of the invention using the methods and technical contents disclosed above, or be modified to equivalent embodiments without affecting the spirit of the invention, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the invention.
