Description

Adhesion fault detection circuit of low-side contactor
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of battery management, in particular to an adhesion fault detection circuit of a low-side contactor.
Background
A Battery Management System (BMS), which is a Battery protection device and is also a bridge between a Battery and a load terminal, provides protection functions such as overcharge, overdischarge, and over-temperature for the Battery according to the actual usage state of the Battery monitored on line, and ensures that the Battery is safely used. The battery management system BMS is widely used in various fields such as electric vehicles, communication base stations, and robots.
Taking an electric vehicle as an example, in a vehicle-mounted power battery system (hereinafter referred to as a power battery system), a direct current contactor (hereinafter referred to as a contactor) is generally adopted as a switching device of a high-voltage loop of the battery system, and is a key electrical component in the battery system, and the on-off of the direct current contactor is controlled by a BMS or a vehicle-mounted electronic control system. In practical use, because the impact of heavy current, can take place contactor contact adhesion trouble sometimes for there is high pressure still at power battery system's positive negative pole both ends, will cause very big safety risk to vehicle and operating personnel this moment.
Among them, so cause vehicle and operating personnel safety risk, the reason that exists includes: the BMS does not carry out adhesion detection to the contactor contact, can't detect contactor contact adhesion trouble, consequently can not in time report to the police to remind operating personnel to break high-voltage circuit manually earlier before the maintenance.
In view of the above problems, some prior art schemes adopt an optocoupler chip to directly sample high voltages at two ends of a power battery system to detect a contactor contact adhesion fault, but these schemes can only preliminarily judge the contactor contact adhesion fault but cannot determine whether the contactor contact adhesion fault is true. If need judge whether for contact adhesion trouble, when judging for contact adhesion trouble, still need further manual work to investigate the reason of specific trouble: whether the contacts are not open because the contactor coil power is not turned off or indeed because a contact stick fault has occurred.
In addition, current detection technical scheme is owing to be direct detection high pressure, so the price of the opto-coupler chip of choosing for use is also very high, leads to BMS hardware cost higher.

For the external coil driving circuit, the coil power signal provided by the external coil driving circuit has two states: high and low potentials, wherein the high coil power signal indicates: the contactor coil is energized (i.e., the low side contactor coil is energized), and a low potential coil power signal indicates: the contactor coil has disconnected power (i.e., the low side contactor coil has disconnected power).

In the invention, the invention only utilizes the high and low potential signals of the coil power supply provided by the existing external coil driving circuit.
It should be noted that, in fig. 1, the low-N series battery pack and the low-side contactor KL2 are not included in the technical solution of the present invention, and are shown only for facilitating understanding of the technical solution of the present invention.
In order to more clearly understand the technical solution of the present invention, the following takes the detection of the low-side contactor KL2 as an example to illustrate the working principle of the invention:
when the low-side contactor KL2 is detected, a first input end VP2 of the contact detection input circuit 100 is connected with a positive end BL + of a low-N series battery pack in the power battery system, and a second input end is connected with a negative end HVN of the power battery system;
it should be noted that, in a normal state, before the high voltage power-up and after the high voltage power-down, the contact of the low-side contactor KL2 should be opened, the voltage VP2 at the first input end of the contact detection input circuit 100 and the voltage at the second input end of the contact detection input circuit 100 are 0V, the input signal KLC received at the input end of the coil start detection circuit 300 is at a low level (the coil of the low-side contactor KL2 is not powered, and the state of the coil power signal provided by the external coil driving circuit is a low-level coil power signal), the coil start detection signal a output by the output end a of the coil start detection circuit 300 and the contact detection signal B output by the output end B of the contact detection output circuit 200 are at a low level.
Therefore, for the invention, before the power battery system is powered on at high voltage and after the power battery system is powered off at high voltage, in order to detect and judge whether the low-side contactor KL2 works normally, the BMS main control chip 400 judges whether the low-side contactor KL2 has a contact adhesion fault according to the combinational logic of the coil start detection signal a output by the output end a of the coil start detection circuit 300 and the contact detection signal B output by the output end B of the contact detection output circuit 200, and the judgment conditions are as follows:
when a coil starting detection signal A and a contact detection signal B are both low level, judging that the contact of a low-side contactor KL2 is not adhered;
and secondly, when the coil starting detection signal A is at a low level and the contact detection signal B is at a high level, judging that the contact of the low-side contactor KL2 is adhered.
It should be noted that, in a normal state, when the coil is powered on at a high voltage, the input signal KLC of the input terminal KLC of the coil start detection circuit 300 changes from a low level to a high level (because the coil of the low-side contact KL2 is powered on at this time, so that the coil power signal provided by the external coil driving circuit is a high-level coil power signal), the contact of the low-side contact KL2 is pulled in, the voltage between the voltage VP2 of the first input terminal of the contact detection input circuit 100 and the second input terminal is the voltage of the low N series battery pack, so that the contact detection signal B output by the output terminal B of the contact detection output circuit 200 and the coil start detection signal a output by the output terminal a of the coil start detection circuit 300 change from a low level to a high level. When the high voltage is electrified, the coil starting detection signal A and the contact detection signal B are kept in a high level state.
Therefore, for the invention, in order to detect and judge whether the low-side contactor KL2 works normally, when the power battery system is electrified at high voltage, the BMS main control chip 400 judges whether the low-side contactor KL2 is activated at high voltage according to the combinational logic of the detection signal B output by the output terminal B of the contact detection output circuit 200 and the coil start detection signal a output by the output terminal a of the coil start detection circuit 300, and the judgment condition is as follows:
firstly, a coil starting detection signal A and a contact detection signal B are both in high level, and the low-side contactor KL2 is judged to be activated by high voltage;
second, the coil start detection signal a and the contact detection signal B are at low levels, and it is determined that the low-side contactor KL2 is not activated by high voltage.

the 4 th pin of the optical coupler Q1 is grounded;
the 1 st pin of the resistor R4 is respectively connected with the 2 nd pin of the resistor R6 and the base electrode of the switching tube Q2;
the 1 st pin of the resistor R6 is connected to the 2 nd pin of the resistor R5 and the emitter of the switching tube Q2, respectively.
In the present invention, referring to fig. 2, in a specific implementation, the contact detection output circuit 200 includes: resistance R5, switch Q2 and resistance R7, wherein:
the 1 st pin of the resistor R5 is connected with an external direct-current power supply 5V;

In the present invention, in a specific implementation, referring to fig. 2, the coil start detection circuit 300 includes: resistance R8, switch Q3 and resistance R9, wherein:
the base electrode of the switching tube Q3 is used as the second input end of the coil starting detection loop 300 and is connected with the 3 rd pin of the optocoupler Q1;
the emitter of the switching tube Q3 is connected with the 2 nd pin of the resistor R8;
a 1 st pin of the resistor R8, which is a first input terminal of the coil start detection circuit 300, is used for connecting an external coil driving circuit, and is used for receiving a coil start signal sent by the external coil driving circuit, where the coil start signal is a signal KLC;
the collector of the switch tube Q3 is connected to the output terminal a of the coil start detection circuit 300 and the 1 st pin of the resistor R9, respectively;
pin 2 of resistor R9 is connected to ground.
In the invention, in terms of specific implementation, for the low-side contactor KL2, before the power battery system is electrified at high voltage and after the power battery system is electrified at high voltage, the normal state should be as follows: the coil power supply of the low-side contactor KL2 is not energized, the signal KLC of the input end KLC of the coil start detection circuit 300 is at a low potential (because the coil of the low-side contactor KL2 is powered off at this time, so that the coil power signal provided by the external coil driving circuit is a low-potential coil power signal, i.e., a low-potential KLC signal), the contact of the low-side contactor KL2 is disconnected, the switch K1 is controlled to be turned off by a KC1 switch control signal (a low level signal according to the present invention) output from the output terminal KC1 of the BMS main control chip 400, the voltage between the first input terminal VP2 and the second input terminal of the contact detection input circuit 100 is 0V, the optical coupler Q1 is cut off, so that the switch tube Q2 and the switch tube Q3 are also cut off, the output end B of the contact detection output loop 200 is pulled down to a low level by the resistor R7, the output a of the coil start detection loop 300 is pulled low by the resistor R9.
The method is characterized in that when adhesion detection is carried out before the power battery system is electrified under high voltage, the switch K1 is firstly closed; when the adhesion detection is finished after high voltage electricity, the switch K1 is finally turned off; at power-up of the high voltage, the switch K1 is always closed.
It should be noted that, when the adhesion detection is finished after the power battery system is charged under a high voltage, the output terminal KC1 of the BMS main control chip 400 outputs a KC1 switch control signal (a low level signal according to the present invention) to the signal input terminal of the switch K1, so as to disconnect the switch K1, with the purpose that: when there is a contact adhesion fault, the contact input detection loop 100 does not consume battery power.
The adhesion fault detection operation before the high-voltage electrification and after the high-voltage electrification of the power battery system is as follows: before high-voltage power-on and after high-voltage power-off, the coil of the low-side contactor KL2 is not electrified, the signal KLC at the input end KLC of the coil start detection circuit 300 is at a low potential (at this time, the state of the coil power signal provided by the external coil driving circuit is a low-potential coil power signal), if the contact of the low-side contactor KL2 is not disconnected due to adhesion, the voltage between the first input end and the second input end of the contact detection input circuit 100 is still equal to the voltage of the low-N series battery pack, after the voltage is divided by the resistor R1 and the resistor R2, the voltage detection end V1 between the resistors R1 and R2 keeps at a high potential, so that the optical coupler Q1 is continuously conducted, the switching tube 2 and the switching tube Q3 are kept in a conducting state, the contact detection signal B at the output end B of the contact detection circuit 200 keeps at a high level, and the coil start detection signal A at the output end A of the, at this time, the BMS main control chip 400 determines that the contact of the low-side contactor KL2 is stuck, and outputs a low-level switch control signal KC1 to turn off the switch K1 after the sticking fault is recorded, and the sticking detection is finished.

Whether the low-side contactor is activated or not during high-voltage electrification of the power battery system is detected as follows: when the high voltage is electrified, a coil of a contactor KL2 is powered on, a signal KLC of an input end KLC of the coil starting detection loop 300 is at a high potential (at the moment, the state of a coil power signal provided by an external coil driving circuit is a coil power signal at the high potential), a contact of a low-side contactor KL2 is pulled in, an output end KC1 of a BMS main control chip outputs a high-level KC1 switch control signal to a signal input end of a switch K1 in the contact detection input loop 100 so as to control to close the switch K1, the voltage between a first input end and a second input end of the contact detection input loop 100 is equal to the voltage of a low-N series battery pack, an optical coupler Q1, a switch tube Q2 and a switch tube Q3 are all conducted, and a coil starting detection signal A of an output end A of the coil starting detection loop and a contact detection signal B of an output end B of the contact detection output loop are both at the, at this time, the BMS main control chip 400 determines that the low side contact KL2 is activated at a high voltage, and the high voltage power-on is successful, otherwise, determines that the low side contact KL2 is not activated at a high voltage, and the high voltage power-on fails.
It should be noted that when the BMS main control chip 400 determines that the low-side contactor KL2 is not activated by the high voltage, it may alarm the existing vehicle-mounted electronic control system located outside and notify that the high voltage power-on fails.
In the present invention, it should be noted that, in terms of specific implementation, the BMS host chip 400 may use a currently commonly used brand, series and model, such as MC9S12 series of NXP, TC265 series of TC2 series of english-flying slush, etc., and the model of the BMS host chip 400 is not within the protection scope of the present invention.
