Charging device 1 possesses signal processing part (transmission unit) 10, zero phase current transformer 11, detection of electrical leakage portion 12, opening/closing portion 13, communication control unit (control unit) 14, charge cable 15, charge connector 16 etc.In addition, charging device 1 is arranged on the position near the parking space (garage) of electric automobile (motor vehicle) 200, and the branch circuit (being the branch circuit breaker 41 of downside right-hand member in FIG) branched out with the branch circuit breaker 41 by house dish 4 is connected.Charge cable 15 forms with insulation sheaths covering supply lines 150 and transmission line 151, its fore-end is provided with charge connector 16, wherein, flow through the supply electric current (charging current) supplied to electric automobile 200 in this supply lines 150, this transmission line 151 is for transmitting pilot signal described later.Charge connector 16 and the insert port (import) of the car body being arranged at electric automobile 200 plug freely carries out insertion and is connected.And, when charge connector 16 insertion is connected to insert port, electric power (charging power) can be supplied via house dish 4 and charging device 1 from electric power system 100, and pilot signal can be transmitted between the signal processing part 10 of charging device 1 and the charging ECU (electronic control unit, not shown) of electric automobile 200.
Opening/closing portion 13 has the electromagnetic relay (not shown) of the supply path being inserted into from branch circuit breaker 41 to supply lines 150, by correspondingly close/being disconnected by electromagnetic relay with the instruction from signal processing part 10, carry out the above-mentioned supply path of opening and closing.The unsymmetrical current flowing through supply path is detected in detection of electrical leakage portion 12 by zero phase current transformer 11, when the detection level of this unsymmetrical current exceedes threshold value, be judged as there occurs electric leakage, controls opening/closing portion 13 and supply path is disconnected.Communication control unit 14 has communication function and adjustment function, this communication function to carry out communicating between the Department of Communication Force 22 of electric power monitoring device 2 function of (serial communication of RS485 standard), and this adjustment function adjusts the function to the charging current that electric automobile 200 supplies as described later.Such communication control unit 14 is made up of the integrated circuit etc. of microcomputer and serial communication.In addition, electric power monitoring device 2 possesses the current sensor (the second current sensor) 212 for measuring the charging current supplied from house dish 4 to electric automobile 200.And, in electric power monitoring device 2, measured the electric current (charging current) supplied via charging device 1 pair of electric automobile 200 by current sensor 212.
At this, the sequential chart with reference to Fig. 3 illustrates the basic charging action of charging device 1.First, when charge connector 16 being connected to the insert port of electric automobile 200 in t ' 0 moment, apply the voltage V1 (such as V1=12 volt) of regulation from signal processing part 10 pairs of transmission lines 151.And, the voltage (voltage between lines) being applied to transmission line 151 becomes the transmission medium controlling pilot tone (CPLT) signal (hereinafter referred to as pilot signal), with its voltage level and duty cycle correspondingly, various information of giving and accepting between charging ECU and signal processing part 10 as described later.
Charging ECU is when the pilot signal of voltage V1 being detected, carry out contact resistance by the closed switch be inserted between transmission line 151 and ground connection, make the voltage level of pilot signal be depressured to V2 (such as V2=9 volt) (t ' 1 moment) from V1 thus.Signal processing part 10, when detecting that pilot signal is reduced to V2 from V1, exports the pilot signal (t ' 2 moment ~) with the pulse type of assigned frequency (such as 1kHz).The signal level of this pilot signal is ± V1, but boundary level is pumped down to V2.
The duty cycle of pilot signal represents the higher limit of charging current.Each charging device 1 is preset to the higher limit of the charging current corresponding with duty cycle.Such as in SAE standard, about the pilot signal that charging device 1 sends out, be defined as in the scope of duty cycle more than 10% and below 85%, duty cycle is multiplied by the numerical value (ampere) of 0.6 gained as higher limit (such as when duty cycle is 10%, higher limit is 6 amperes).In addition, be defined as when duty cycle be greater than 85% and below 96%, duty cycle is deducted be multiplied by 2.5 gained after 64 numerical value (ampere) as higher limit.That is, the information (value) of higher limit is transmitted with the be added to voltage between lines of transmission line 151 of pulse-width signal by pilot signal.In addition, about the pilot signal that charging device 1 sends out, in SAE standard, be defined as and be less than in duty cycle the situation that 10% (except 5%) and duty cycle be greater than 96% and represent error condition or do not allow charging.In addition, the situation that to be defined as in duty cycle be 5% represents to be needed to carry out digital communication (with reference to SAEJ1772).
When charging ECU identifies the higher limit of charging current when the duty cycle detecting pilot signal, the voltage level (such as by contact resistance) of pilot signal is depressured to V3 (such as 6 volts) (t ' 3 moment) from V2.Signal processing part 10 is when detecting that the signal level of pilot signal is reduced to V3 from V2, and closed opening/closing portion 13 starts to supply charging power.
Charging uses ECU according to the higher limit of the charging current notified from charging device 1, current value (higher limit of≤charging current) till setting is used for that the charging level of storage battery is charged to target level, and export charging instruction to the charger (not shown) being equipped on electric automobile 200.Receive the charger of charging instruction while carry out adjustment in the mode making charging current be no more than the current value set by charging ECU to charging current while charge (t ' 3 moment ~) to storage battery.When the charging level of storage battery reaches target level, charging ECU terminates the charging to storage battery to charger output charging END instruction, and makes the voltage level of pilot signal return to V2 (t ' 4 moment) from V3.Charger, when receiving charging END instruction, terminates the charging to storage battery.
Signal processing part 10, when detecting that pilot signal is changed to V2 from V3, disconnects opening/closing portion 13 and stops supplying alternating electromotive force.In addition, charge and carry out off resistance with ECU by disconnecting the switch that is connected with transmission line 151, make the voltage level of pilot signal return to V1 (t ' 5 moment) originally thus.Signal processing part 10, when the voltage level of pilot signal returns to V1, stops the vibration of assigned frequency, the voltage level of pilot signal is maintained V1, returns holding state (t ' 6 moment).
The supply of the charging power to electric automobile 200 is connected and cut off to charging device 1 as described above, and to the higher limit that the charging of electric automobile 200 indicates charging current with ECU, control the charging to the storage battery being equipped on electric automobile 200 thus.
But, electric automobile 200 is charged and usually needs the large charging current of tens amperes ~ tens Amps.On the other hand, in common house, the rated current of backbone circuit breaker 40 (being limiter and backbone circuit breaker 40 when being provided with limiter) is set to 30 amperes ~ 60 Amps.Thus, when electric automobile 200 being charged when using the such current sinking of electromagnetic kitchen range, air regulator large load equipment, if flow through the charging current reaching the higher limit preset in charging device 1, then backbone circuit breaker 40, limiter is likely caused to trip.
Therefore, the control part 20 of electric power monitoring device 2 termly (such as one second interval) makes Department of Communication Force 22 send instruction (adjustment instruction), and this instruction is the instruction that current value for the higher limit of charging current being set to current charging current deducts the current value of the difference gained of all current sinkings and rated current.That is, the current value that electric power monitoring device 2 calculates charging current deducts the value of the difference gained of the rated current of all current sinkings and house dish 4, and by this value notice to communication control unit 14.In addition, all current sinkings are the summations of the current sinking (load consumed current) of charging current and load equipment.Such as use the current sensor 210,211 be arranged between electric power system 100 and backbone circuit breaker 40 to measure all current sinkings.
Change a kind of saying, the control part 20 of electric power monitoring device 2 makes Department of Communication Force 22 send instruction (adjustment instruction) termly, and this instruction is the instruction of the difference for the higher limit of charging current being set to rated current and load consumed current.
In charging device 1, the higher limit of charging current is set to below the higher limit indicated by adjustment instruction by the communication control unit 14 index signal handling part 10 receiving the adjustment instruction sent from electric power monitoring device 2.And signal processing part 10, when receiving the instruction from communication control unit 14, changes the duty cycle of pilot signal according to the adjustment instruction indicated from communication control unit 14.Such as, when the current capacity (can flow through the tolerance of the electric current of charge cable 15) of charge cable 15 is 30 amperes, be originally 50% duty cycle such as reduce to 40% ~ 20%, result is that the higher limit of charging current is adjusted to than ampere low value of 30 originally (such as 15 amperes).But, if the higher limit of last time is identical with this higher limit, then do not change duty cycle.In addition, communication control unit 14 also can use from Department of Communication Force 22 by adjusting the value repeatedly of the value indicated by instruction.Such as, communication control unit 14 also can be the structure etc. of the higher limit indicating charging current based on the mean value of value repeatedly to signal processing part 10.
The charging ECU of electric automobile 200 sets the current value of charging current again according to the higher limit after adjustment, and exports charging instruction to charger.Receive the charger of charging instruction while adjust charging current while charge to storage battery in the mode being no more than the new current value set by charging ECU.The charging current consequently supplied electric automobile 200 is below the higher limit of signal processing part 10 setting, therefore, it is possible to avoid all current sinkings to exceed the rated current of backbone circuit breaker 40.
But, in order to make charging device 1 reduce charging current, being indicated to till the actual minimizing in electric automobile 200 side charging current from sending electric automobile 200, producing quite long time of delay.Such as, if suppose that receive adjustment instruction from communication control unit 14 needs time T2, needs time T3, then the delay of generation time T1 (=T2+T3) to electric automobile 200 and pilot signal correspondingly reduce charging current to changing the duty cycle of pilot signal.Consequently in backbone circuit breaker 40 at least continue time of delay T1 flow through overload electric current, therefore, when time of delay, T1 exceeded the trip operation time of backbone circuit breaker 40, likely cause backbone circuit breaker 40 to trip.Further, in most cases different according to the car type of electric automobile 200, the time T2 needed to changing the duty cycle of pilot signal is different.
Therefore, in order to prevent the backbone circuit breaker 40 when reducing the higher limit of charging current from tripping, preferably making charging ECU brief interruption charge, when again starting to charge, the higher limit of charging current being adjusted to than value low before interruption.At this, as illustrated in the prior art, stop needing during charging to notify that charging stops to electric automobile 200 at charging device 1.As illustrated in the prior art, notify the method that charging stops to there is the method duty cycle of pilot signal being set to 100% as from charging device 1.But, when transformation period etc. in the state variation defining pilot signal, when the duty cycle of pilot signal being set to value (such as 80%) being again set smaller than 100% after 100% in charging process, different according to the car type of electric automobile 200, likely produce the exception of not expecting.
In addition, as other problem points, when the value of charging current is little, because there is internal resistance etc., therefore sufficient electric power cannot be supplied from distribution board to charger.Thus, such as in SAE standard not regulation charging current be set to be less than 6 amperes.Therefore, such as when SAE standard followed by charging device 1, when the use due to load equipment etc., the feasible value of charging current is reduced to less than 6 ampere-hours, and charging device 1 (such as the duty cycle of pilot signal being set to 100%) interrupts charging.In this case, when the duty cycle of pilot signal being set to the value being again set smaller than 100% after 100% in charging process, different according to the car type of electric automobile 200, likely produce the exception of not expecting.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, when again starting after having interrupted the charging to electric automobile 200, after the voltage between lines of transmission line 151 to be set to below assigned voltage (continuing the stand-by time of regulation) by communication control unit 14 control signal handling part 10, signal processing part 10 is transmitted duty cycle to be set smaller than the pilot signal of the value (such as 80%) of 100%.On the other hand, when the duty cycle of pilot signal becomes 100%, charge with ECU make immediately charger stop charging.Further, when the voltage between lines of transmission line 151 becomes below assigned voltage, charging is judged as charge connector 16 from insert port removal with ECU.
Thus, charging device 1 according to the present embodiment, when again starting after interrupting the charging to electric automobile 200, can make the charging ECU of electric automobile 200 be identified as " charge connector 16 is from insert port removal ".In addition, assigned voltage is judged as charge connector 16 from the threshold value of insert port removal for charging with ECU, such as, is set as several volts ~ zero volt.Wherein, preferred assigned voltage is zero volt.In the following description, suppose that assigned voltage is set to zero volt.
Namely, the duty cycle of pilot signal is set to 100% by communication control unit 14, afterwards the voltage between lines of transmission line 151 is set to assigned voltage (zero volt), if have passed through the stand-by time of regulation afterwards, then signal processing part 10 is made to start to transmit the pilot signal that duty cycle is set smaller than the value (such as 80%) of 100% by (vibration).Charging ECU is judged as that when receiving above-mentioned pilot signal charge connector 16 has inserted and is connected to insert port.Afterwards, charging ECU is according to the common flow process illustrated (flow process shown in Fig. 3), and the higher limit detected according to the duty cycle based on pilot signal sets the current value of charging current, exports charging instruction to charger.Receive the charger of charging instruction while adjust charging current while charge to storage battery in the mode being no more than the new current value set by charging ECU.
At this, with reference to the sequential chart of Fig. 2, further describe the charging action of above-mentioned charging device 1.In addition, in the following description, assuming that be defined as 6 amperes for the threshold value of the higher limit of charging current, do not allow when charging current is restricted to and is less than threshold value to charge to electric automobile 200.
First, insert the insert port that is connected to electric automobile 200 and from signal processing part 10 to after transmission line 151 is applied with voltage V1 at charge connector 16, in the t1 moment, charging is depressured to V2 by the voltage level of pilot signal from V1 with ECU.Now, when the adjusted value indicated from the control part 20 of electric power monitoring device 2 is less than 6 amperes, the communication control unit 14 of charging device 1 is judged as not allowing (not allowing) to charge to electric automobile 200 from electric power monitoring device 2, does not carry out the vibration of pilot signal.When not starting the vibration of pilot signal, duty cycle is maintained 100%, charge with ECU not to charger output charging instruction.
Then, when the adjusted value that current sinking reduces when the use etc. stopping load equipment, indicate from the control part 20 of electric power monitoring device 2 is changed to more than 6 amperes, the communication control unit 14 of charging device 1 is judged as allow for from electric power monitoring device 2 charging to electric automobile 200.Then, communication control unit 14 makes signal processing part 10 stop applying voltage to transmission line 151, makes voltage between lines become zero volt (t2 moment).If have passed through the stand-by time of regulation from the t2 moment, then communication control unit 14 makes signal processing part 10 again start to apply voltage to transmission line 151.When applying voltage to transmission line 151, charging is set to V2 (t3 moment) with ECU by voltage between lines.Signal processing part 10, when detecting that voltage between lines becomes V2, starts the vibration (t4 moment ~) of pilot signal.
When charging ECU identifies the higher limit of charging current when the duty cycle detecting pilot signal, the voltage level of pilot signal is depressurized to V3 from V2.Signal processing part 10 is when detecting that the signal level of pilot signal is reduced to V3 from V2, and closed opening/closing portion 13 starts to supply charging power.Further, charging ECU sets the current value for the charging level of storage battery being charged to target level according to the higher limit of the charging current sent from signal processing part 10, and exports charging instruction to charger.
In charging process, when changing to below 6 amperes from the adjusted value that the control part 20 of electric power monitoring device 2 indicates when all current sinking increases etc., the communication control unit 14 of charging device 1 is judged as not allowing to charge to electric automobile 200.Then, communication control unit 14 makes signal processing part 10 stop the vibration of pilot signal, duty cycle is maintained 100% (t5 moment ~).When the vibration termination of pilot signal, duty cycle is maintained 100%, charging stops exporting charging instruction to charger with ECU.
Afterwards, when the adjusted value indicated from the control part 20 of electric power monitoring device 2 changes to more than 6 amperes again, the communication control unit 14 of charging device 1 makes signal processing part 10 stop applying voltage to transmission line 151, makes voltage between lines become zero volt (t6 moment).If have passed through stand-by time from the t6 moment, then communication control unit 14 makes signal processing part 10 again start to apply voltage to transmission line 151.When applying voltage to transmission line 151, charging makes voltage between lines become V2 (t7 moment) with ECU.Signal processing part 10, when detecting that voltage between lines becomes V2, starts the vibration (t8 moment ~) of pilot signal again.
When charging ECU identifies the higher limit of charging current when the duty cycle detecting pilot signal, the voltage level of pilot signal is depressurized to V3 from V2.Signal processing part 10 is when detecting that the signal level of pilot signal is reduced to V3 from V2, and closed opening/closing portion 13 starts to supply charging power.Further, charging ECU sets the current value for the charging level of storage battery being charged to target level according to the higher limit of the charging current sent from signal processing part, and exports charging instruction to charger.
As mentioned above, in the charging device 1 of present embodiment, control unit (communication control unit 14) is when interrupting again starting after the charging of electric automobile 200, after the voltage between lines of transmission line 151 being set to zero volt (continuing the stand-by time of regulation), transmission unit (signal processing part 10) is made to transmit signal transmission.That is, by making the voltage between lines of transmission line 151 become zero volt, the charging ECU of electric automobile 200 can be made to be identified as charge connector 16 from insert port removal.Therefore, if signal processing part 10 pairs of transmission lines 151 apply voltage between lines, again start the vibration of pilot signal, then charging ECU can be judged as that charge connector 16 inserts again and be connected to insert port, starts to charge with common flow process.Consequently normally again can start charging after interruption charging.
