Description

Energy storage system and method for identifying connection interface of inverter and battery pack
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of energy storage, in particular to an energy storage system and a method for identifying a connection interface between an inverter and a battery pack.
Background
With the further overcoming of the technical difficulties of lithium batteries and the like, energy storage products are developed at a high speed, the updating of the products is more and more advanced, and meanwhile, users also put forward various requirements on the energy storage products; in the market, there are mobile energy storage series products which are convenient for moving and have 1 inverter dragging several battery packs, that is, the scheme that 1 inverter drags several battery packs is adopted, two interfaces are designed and reserved for charging and discharging interfaces of the inverter, and two charging and discharging interfaces of the battery packs are also adopted, so that in the use stage, the inverter and the battery packs are connected in various ways, for example, 4 battery packs are matched for 1 inverter, and the connection way has various combination connection methods, wherein, two common connection methods are shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2. The first wiring mode: four battery packs 20 (specifically, a first battery pack 201, a second battery pack 202, a third battery pack 203, and a fourth battery pack 204) are equally divided at charging and discharging ports of the inverter 10, that is, the first battery pack 201 and the second battery pack 202 are connected to one interface of the inverter 10, the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204 are connected to the other interface of the inverter 10, and the second connection mode: the four battery packs (including the first battery pack 201, the second battery pack 202, the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204) are pulled by hand, that is, the first battery pack 201, the second battery pack 202, the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204 are all connected to the same interface of the inverter. In the first connection mode, the number of the battery packs attached to the two interfaces of the inverter 10 is balanced, so that the inverter 10 can work reliably and fully; in the second connection mode, only one interface of the inverter 10 is provided with 4 battery packs to work, so that the inverter 10 cannot output full power or the connection line is easy to overload, and potential safety hazards exist. The inverter in the prior art cannot recognize which way the battery pack is connected thereto.
In order to allow the inverter to operate reliably and at full power and to fully function with the battery pack, most designers currently adopt the following method to avoid the problem that the inverter cannot identify the mode in which the battery pack is connected to the battery pack: 1. by adopting a manual instruction mode, users are informed of wiring according to a first wiring mode; 2. thickening a cable for connecting the inverter and the battery pack, wherein the key point is a current-carrying power cable so as to achieve the purpose of safe use under the full-power working condition; in the method 1, because the related users are wide, all users cannot be guaranteed to notice the problem, and potential safety hazards exist in use; in the method 2, although the potential safety hazard can be avoided, the cost of connecting the cable is high, and meanwhile, the battery pack at the tail end needs to be connected with the inverter through four connecting wires, particularly the design scheme of the low-voltage battery pack, so that the loss of the cable is not negligible. Thus, the connection result of the first connection mode is desired, and the inverter needs to be able to recognize in which mode the battery pack is connected; the advantages of the first wiring mode include: 1. the sum of the current carrying capacities of the cables respectively connected to the interface 1 and the interface 2 of the inverter is larger than the current carrying required when the inverter is fully loaded; 2. the distance from the last battery pack to the inverter is shortened, and the loss of a current-carrying wire is low. In actual use, because the products relate to a wide range of users, it is often difficult to operate all the products according to the first wiring mode.
The above background disclosure is only for the purpose of assisting understanding of the concept and technical solution of the present invention and does not necessarily belong to the prior art of the present patent application, and should not be used for evaluating the novelty and inventive step of the present application in the case that there is no clear evidence that the above content is disclosed at the filing date of the present patent application.

a1: the inverter establishes communication connection with all the battery packs connected with the inverter;
specifically, the pins 1 and 2 in the a interface 122 of the inverter 10 and the pins 1 and 2 in the B interface 132 are correspondingly connected, so that the pins 1 and 2 in the C interface 222 in the first battery pack 201, the second battery pack 202, the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204 are simultaneously and correspondingly connected with the pins 1 and 2 in the a interface 122 and the B interface 132, so that the inverter 10 simultaneously establishes the CAN communication connection with all the battery packs 20.
A2: the inversion control unit respectively generates identification signals through each inversion I/O interface and sends the identification signals to the battery identification signal interfaces of each battery pack through the inversion identification signal interfaces, wherein the identification signals output by each inversion I/O interface are different, and the positions where the identification signals output by each inversion I/O interface are different at least comprise different serial numbers of inversion identification signal pins connected with each inversion I/O interface;
specifically, the inversion control unit 11 generates identification signals through the I/O1 interface 111 and the I/O2 interface 112, respectively, wherein the I/O1 interface 111 generates a square wave signal with a duty ratio of 50% and a frequency of 1KHz, and the I/O2 interface 112 generates a square wave signal with a duty ratio of 50% and a frequency of 1.5 KHz; the I/O1 interface 111 transmits the identification signal (square wave signal with 50% duty ratio and 1KHz frequency) to 5 pins of the C interface 222 and 5 pins of the D interface 232 in the first battery pack 201 and the second battery pack 202 through 5 pins of the a interface 122, and the I/O2 interface 112 transmits the identification signal (square wave signal with 50% duty ratio and 1.5KHz frequency) to 6 pins of the C interface 222 and 6 pins of the D interface 232 in the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204 through 6 pins of the B interface 123.
In the present embodiment, wherein 5 pins of the a interface 122 of the inverter 10 are simultaneously and correspondingly connected with 5 pins of the C interface 222 and 5 pins of the D interface 232 in the first battery pack 201 and the second battery pack 202, 6 pins of the a interface 122 of the inverter 10 are simultaneously and correspondingly connected with 6 pins of the C interface 222 and 6 pins of the D interface 232 in the first battery pack 201 and the second battery pack 202; the 5 pins of the B interface 132 of the inverter 10 are simultaneously connected to the 5 pins of the C interface 222 and the 5 pins of the D interface 232 of the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204, respectively, and the 6 pins of the B interface 132 of the inverter 10 are simultaneously connected to the 6 pins of the C interface 222 and the 6 pins of the D interface 232 of the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204, respectively.
A3: the battery control unit of each battery pack determines interface connection information of the battery pack and the inverter according to the received identification signal and the serial number of the battery I/O interface corresponding to the received identification signal, and sends the interface connection information to the inverter;
specifically, the battery control units 21 of the first battery pack 201 and the second battery pack 202 determine interface connection information between the battery packs and the inverter (the first battery pack 201 and the second battery pack 202 are respectively connected to the a interface unit 12 of the inverter) according to the received identification signal (the square wave signal with the duty ratio of 50% and the frequency of 1 KHz) and the serial numbers (I/O3 interfaces 211) of the battery I/O interfaces corresponding to the received identification signal, and send the interface connection information (the first battery pack 201 and the second battery pack 202 are respectively connected to the a interface unit 12 of the inverter) to the inverter 10. The battery control units 21 of the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204 determine interface connection information between the battery pack and the inverter (the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204 are respectively connected to the B interface unit 13 of the inverter) according to the received identification signal (the square wave signal with the duty ratio of 50% and the frequency of 1.5 KHz) and the serial number (I/O4 interface 212) of the battery I/O interface corresponding to the received identification signal, and send the interface connection information (the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204 are respectively connected to the B interface unit 13 of the inverter) to the inverter 10.
A4: and the inverter determines the connection condition of each battery pack and each inversion interface unit according to the interface connection information sent by each battery pack.
The inverter determines that the first battery pack 201 and the second battery pack 202 are respectively connected with the a interface unit 12 of the inverter according to the interface connection information (the first battery pack 201 and the second battery pack 202 are respectively connected with the a interface unit 12 of the inverter), and determines that the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204 are respectively connected with the B interface unit 13 of the inverter according to the interface connection information (the third battery pack 203 and the fourth battery pack 204 are respectively connected with the B interface unit 13 of the inverter).
Therefore, in the above steps A3 and A4, the identification step can be directly performed in the following manner: after the I/O3 interface 211 and the I/O4 interface 212 of each battery pack 20 respectively receive the square wave signals with different frequencies, the serial number of the battery I/O interface and the corresponding square wave frequency are returned to the inverter 10 through CAN communication, the I/O3 interface 211 is a 1kHz square wave signal, the I/O4 interface 212 is low level, and the corresponding battery pack is connected with the a interface unit 12 of the inverter 10; the I/O3 interface 211 is at low level, and the I/O4 interface 212 is a 1.5kHz square wave signal, and the corresponding battery pack is connected to the B interface unit 13 of the inverter 10. In some other embodiments, the square wave signals output by the I/O1 interface 111 and the I/O2 interface 112 may also be the same, and the interface units connected to the battery pack can be identified only by the square wave signal or the low level signal, and the square wave signals with different frequencies are used, so that the distinguishing effect can be further enhanced.
In other embodiments, the signal mode may also be a level signal, where a pin 5 of the a interface 122 of the inverter outputs a high level signal and a pin 6 outputs a low level signal, and a pin 5 of the B interface 123 outputs a low level signal and a pin 6 outputs a high level signal; the MCU of each battery pack encodes an I/O interface (for example, defined as I/O3 and I/O4) for receiving the identification signal, after the I/O3 and the I/O4 receive the level, the I/O interface encodes and the level state corresponding to the I/O interface is returned to the inverter through CAN communication, the I/O3 is high level, the I/O4 is low level, and the corresponding battery pack is connected with an A interface 122 (namely, an A interface unit 12) of the inverter; I/O3 is low and I/O4 is high, then the corresponding battery pack is connected to the B interface 132 (i.e., B interface unit 13) of the inverter. Thus, the inverter 10 can receive the interfaces connected to the battery packs 20, and make corresponding actions by judging whether the connection mode of the battery packs meets the preset rules; for example, when the number difference of the battery packs connected with the A/B interface exceeds 1, an alarm prompt is sent out or the output power of the inverter is reduced.
In practical application, the mode of 50% of square wave duty ratio adopted in the embodiment of the invention is more advantageous than the level mode, so that the condition that a receiving circuit device in the battery pack is damaged can be eliminated, the I/O interface of the battery pack MCU receives a certain specific level and is misjudged to be connected with the interface A or the interface B, and the reliability of identification is improved.
In the embodiment, the CAN communication is adopted as the communication mode between the inverter and the battery pack, so that the CAN communication has higher communication speed and more reliable communication quality, and the time required by automatic identification CAN be shortened; and secondly, under the working condition that the number of the inverters is one, the communication between the inverters and the battery pack is more reliable, and meanwhile, the condition of an interface can be identified on line.
After the connection mode of the inverter and the battery pack is identified through the invention, the connection mode is judged to be the first connection mode shown in fig. 1 or a corresponding desired connection mode, the inverter of the energy storage system provides output according to a normal mode, and if the connection mode is not the first connection mode or is not the corresponding desired connection mode (for example, the number difference of the battery packs connected by the interface A and the interface B is more than 1), corresponding derating limit output can be set, and corresponding measures such as abnormal connection prompt alarm and the like are synchronously output to inform a user of correcting the connection mode. The specific workflow steps may be: calculating the number of the battery packs respectively connected to each inversion interface unit in the inverter, calculating the difference value of the number of the battery packs connected to each two inversion interface units, and judging that the inverter provides output for a normal mode if all the difference values are less than or equal to 1; if the difference value is larger than 1, the inverter is judged to provide output for the abnormal mode, and an alarm prompt is sent out or the output power of the inverter is reduced.

With reference to fig. 8, at the inverter 10 end, the only difference between the first embodiment and the second embodiment is that only 5 pins are respectively disposed on the a interface 122 and the B interface 132, where only one pin is disposed on the identification signal interface, that is, 5 pins are identification signal pins, 5 pins of the a interface 122 correspondingly output a square wave signal with a duty cycle of 50% and a frequency of 1KHz, and 5 pins of the B interface 132 correspondingly output a square wave signal with a duty cycle of 50% and a frequency of 1.5 KHz. And the 5 pin of the a interface 122 is connected to the I/O1 interface 111 to be able to output a square wave signal with a duty ratio of 50% and a frequency of 1KHz, and the 5 pin of the B interface 123 is connected to the I/O2 interface 112 to be able to output a square wave signal with a duty ratio of 50% and a frequency of 1.5 KHz.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the interface connected to the battery pack is identified by the different identification signals of the 5 pins of the a interface 122 and the B interface 132, so that, unlike the embodiment, in this embodiment, the difference between the identification signals output by the respective inverted I/O interfaces (I/O1 interface 111 and I/O2 interface 112) includes the difference in frequency of the identification signals, that is, the frequencies of the signals output by the 5 pins of the a interface 122 and the B interface 132 must be different, for example, the signals may be square wave signals with different frequencies, or level signals with different frequencies, or one square wave signal, one level signal, and the like.
