专利说明:
[0001] The present invention relates to a method and system for balancing batteries, in particular to a method and system for balancing batteries of an electric vehicle. Background of the Invention
[0002] With the development of electric vehicles, a variety of energy replenishment means have also appeared for the power batteries of battery vehicles. At present, commonly used means include charging by using household AC charging piles (commonly known as: slow charging), charging by using public or dedicated DC charging piles (commonly known as: fast charging) and fast battery replacement (commonly known as: battery replacement). A battery replacement station is generally equipped with a fast charging facility or a slow charging facility to charge a power-lost battery.
[0003] Under different energy replenishment measures such as fast charging, slow charging, battery replacement or the like, and different user habits, the attenuation degrees of the power batteries of the electric vehicle is seriously inconsistent, and some batteries are prematurely attenuated due to unhealthy use, thus affecting the service lives of the batteries.
[0004] If slow charging is applied to the batteries in the battery replacement station all the time, the turnover efficiency of the batteries is greatly reduced, and the number of standby batteries needs to be increased; and if the slow charging is used all the time, a serious decline in the number of battery cycles is caused, which seriously shortens the service lives of the batteries.
[0005] In addition, the inconsistency of the service lives of the batteries mentioned above will lead to serious imbalance in the states of batteries put into use in the same batch. In the battery replacement station, for two batteries with a large difference in the state of health (State of Health, abbreviated as SOH), after being fully charged, even if the state of charge (State of Charge, abbreviated as SOC) is the same value, but the actual mileages that can be driven under the same driving conditions are very different, which causes trouble to the use of the vehicle of a user and seriously affects the user experience.

[0040] In order to further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted in the present invention to achieve the intended purpose of the invention, specific embodiments, structures, features and effects of a battery balancing method proposed in accordance with the present invention are described in detail below, in conjunction with the drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0041] Please refer to Fig. 1, a battery balancing method proposed by the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps.
[0042] Step S101: historical energy replenishment information is obtained, the historical energy replenishment information includes use degree information, such as a fast charging use degree, and a slow charging use degree. The energy replenishment includes fast charging, slow charging and battery replacement.
[0043] The historical energy replenishment information can be historical energy replenishment information about the battery, such as recording of the health degree of the battery, the past energy replenishment time of the battery, the energy replenishment mode, voltage, current and other information, can also be historical energy replenishment information about a battery user (or vehicle owner), in fact, the historical energy replenishment information about the user is equivalent to the energy replenishment habit information of the user, for example, whether the user has a slow charging device dedicated to the user such as a household slow charging pile, and historical information, such as the times, proportion, frequency or the like of the user using various energy replenishment modes or energy replenishment facilities (for example, the dedicated slow charging device, a slow charging device, a fast charging device, a battery replacement device or the like).
[0044] The use degree information refers to information that can represent the impact of energy replenishment or use on the service life of the battery, and the use degree information also includes a battery use degree and a user use degree. For example, the fast charging use degree or the slow charging use degree includes the use degree of a battery using fast charging/slow charging and the use degree of the user using the fast charging device/the slow charging device.
[0045] The use degree information can be from the start to present and can also be within a preset time period, for example, various battery use degrees can be the impact of the energy replenishment or use on the service life of the battery within the entire battery life period starting from the use, and can also be the impact of the energy replenishment or use within a short period (for example, several times of recent energy replenishment) on the service life of the battery, and various user use degrees can be recorded all the past energy replenishment habits of the user and can also be the energy replenishment habits in recent times.
[0046] In addition, the historical energy replenishment information can be recorded in the cloud in advance, and can be obtained from the cloud when needed. The use degree information can also be queried by reading a vehicle battery ID or reading a user ID through the Internet of Vehicles.
[0047] Step S102: whether an actual value of the obtained fast charging use degree is higher than a preset target value of the fast charging use degree is judged, and/or, whether the actual value of the obtained slow charging use degree is higher than a preset target value of the slow charging use degree is judged, and an energy replenishment strategy of the battery is determined according to the judgment result.
[0048] The determining an energy replenishment strategy at least includes: determining an energy replenishment mode to be adopted as fast charging, slow charging or battery replacement. In addition, it can include determining other information, for example, determining the specific voltage and current of charging, determining which battery should be replaced, determining to use which one of the same kind of energy replenishment devices in a battery replacement station, or determining which one of multiple battery replacement stations should be selected.
[0049] The target value of the fast charging use degree and the target value of the slow charging use degree are thresholds of performing a reasonable charging mode. When the slow charging use degree is higher than the target value of the slow charging use degree or the fast charging use degree is lower than the target value of the fast charging use degree, the energy replenishment mode to be adopted by the battery can be determined as a fast charging mode, and when the fast charging use degree is higher than the target value of the fast charging use degree or the slow charging use degree is lower than the target value of the slow charging use degree, the energy replenishment mode to be adopted by the battery can be determined as a slow charging mode, so as to perform energy replenishment on the battery according to the reasonable charging mode, and the states of health of multiple batteries (such as the same batch of batteries) can be balanced to be basically consistent. It should be noted that the specific value of the target value of the use degree can be set in advance, or the specific value of the target value of the use degree can be obtained in a battery balancing process.
[0050] The energy replenishment strategy is determined based on judging whether the battery use degree reaches the target value. Specifically, the energy replenishment can be performed according to a certain ratio of fast charging and slow charging in various ways.
[0051] In a specific mode, the fast charging use degree includes a battery fast charging ratio for representing a proportion of the fast charging times of the battery to the total charging times of the battery starting from the use of the battery or within a preset time period. The process of the step S102 specifically includes: judging whether the actual value of the fast charging ratio of the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform reaches or exceeds a preset target value of the fast charging ratio, if the judgment result is yes, determining the present energy replenishment mode as slow charging, or otherwise, determining the present energy replenishment mode as fast charging.
[0052] In a specific mode, the slow charging use degree includes a battery slow charging ratio for representing a proportion of the slow charging times of the battery to the total charging times of the slow starting from the use of the battery or within a preset time period. The process of the step S102 specifically includes: judging whether the actual value of the slow charging ratio of the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform reaches or exceeds a preset target value of the slow charging ratio, if the judgment result is yes, determining the present energy replenishment mode as fast charging, or otherwise, determining the present energy replenishment mode as slow charging.
[0053] In a specific mode, the fast charging use degree includes the fast charging times of the battery within a charging mode cycle period, and the charging mode cycle period refers to a period composed of successive multiple charging operations of the battery. The process of the step S102 specifically includes: judging whether the fast charging times of the battery within the recent charging mode cycle period reach or exceed a preset target value of the fast charging times, if the judgment result is yes, performing energy replenishment on the battery in the slow charging mode, or otherwise, performing the energy replenishment on the battery in the fast charging mode. In one example, one charging mode cycle period is set as the duration of five times of charging (including fast charging and slow charging) of the battery, and the corresponding target value of the fast charging times is set as 1; and the fast charging times of the battery within the previous four times of charging are obtained, whether the fast charging times reach or exceed once is judged, if yes, the present energy replenishment mode is determined as slow charging, or otherwise, the present energy replenishment mode is determined as fast charging.
[0054] In a specific mode, the slow charging use degree includes the slow charging times of the battery within a charging mode cycle period, and the charging mode cycle period refers to a period composed of successive multiple charging operations of the battery. The process of the step S102 specifically includes: judging whether the slow charging times of the battery within the recent charging mode cycle period reach or exceed a preset target value of the slow charging times, if the judgment result is yes, performing energy replenishment on the battery in the fast charging mode, or otherwise, performing the energy replenishment on the battery in the slow charging mode.
[0055] In yet another specific mode, the use degree information includes historical information of the charging times and the charging mode of the battery, and the target value of the use degree includes a set fast charging interval period, which can be four times, for example. The process of the step S102 specifically includes: querying the data of the previous four times in the charging history information of the battery, if the fast charging times are not less than one, then scheduling to use the slow charging service, or scheduling to use the battery replacement service and performing slow charging energy replenishment on the replaced battery; and if the fast charging times are zero, then scheduling to use the fast charging service, or scheduling to use the battery replacement service and performing fast charging energy replenishment on the replaced battery.
[0056] The principle of formulating the energy replenishment strategy according to a certain ratio of fast charging and slow charging is that the current power battery is not expected to be continuously charged quickly, for example, most batteries are best to be charged in a charging mode in which the ratio of fast charging to slow charging is 1: 4 (once fast charging, 4 times of slow charging), which has little impact on the service life of the battery. Therefore, a periodic fast and slow interval energy replenishment strategy can be implemented. For example, 5 times are used as a fast and slow interval period, within a fast and slow interval period, 4 times of slow charging and once fast charging are used to perform the slow charging and fast charging ratio, and the charging mode can be set as "slow, slow, slow, slow, fast, slow, slow, slow, slow, fast, slow, slow, slow, slow ...".
[0057] When the historical energy replenishment information obtained in the step S101 of the present method includes energy replenishment habit information of the user, and the fast charging use degree includes a degree of the user using a fast charging device, or the slow charging use degree includes a degree of the user using a slow charging device, the process of the step S102 of the present method can include: judging whether the actual value of the degree of the user using the slow charging device/the degree of the user using the fast charging device of the battery reaches a preset target value, and determining the energy replenishment strategy of the battery according to the judgment result. In one example, the step S102 includes: judging whether the actual value of the ratio of the user using a dedicated slow charging device of the battery exceeds a preset target value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device, and whether the battery is not replaced within a preset battery replacement period, and if the judgment result is yes, determining the energy replenishment mode to be adopted as battery replacement. The ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device is used for representing the proportion of the times of the user using the dedicated slow charging device such as a household slow charging pile to perform energy replenishment to the total energy replenishment times of the user, starting from the initial energy replenishment of the user (the initial energy replenishment is initial energy replenishment relative to all batteries used by the user) or within a preset time period. It should be noted that the user use degree is not limited to be determined by the ratio manner, but can also be determined by a variety of manners such as the cycle period manner.
[0058] Further, the energy replenishment strategy can be determined by setting multiple target values of the same kind of use degree or by synthesizing multiple use degrees. For example, the battery use degree and the user use degree can be judged at the same time; the energy replenishment strategy can also be determined by using multiple fast charging use degrees (for example, through the ratio manner and the cycle period manner at the same time); and the fast charging use degree and the slow charging use degree can also be judged at the same time, for example, in one example, the preset target value of the fast charging times and the preset target value of the slow charging times can be considered in a charging mode cycle period at the same time, if the actual value of the fast charging times reaches the target value of the fast charging times, slow charging is performed, if the actual value of the slow charging times reaches the target value of the slow charging times, fast charging is performed, otherwise, energy replenishment is performed according to the selection of the user, therefore the fast charging and slow charging of the battery can be limited at the same time to better achieve battery balance.
[0059] In addition, it should be noted that, in order to prevent the situation that a new battery is always scheduled to perform battery replacement and fast charging at the beginning of use according to the steps of the foregoing method (in fact, because there is no enough historical energy replenishment information), the several times of energy replenishment mode of the new battery at the beginning can be preset to be fixed, for example, the previous five times of energy replenishment mode of the new battery (or a battery with insufficient historical energy replenishment information) are fixed as slow, slow, slow, slow and fast, or, the energy replenishment strategy can be determined according to the step S102 after the battery is charged for certain times.
[0060] Step S103: energy replenishment scheduling is performed according to the determined energy replenishment strategy. The energy replenishment scheduling can include scheduling of the battery, and can also include guidance to the user using the battery.
[0061] The above scheduling can be specifically implemented in a variety of ways, including: Battery replacement station scheduling, in the same battery replacement station, based on the energy replenishment strategy obtained by analyzing the state of health and the use condition of each battery in a batch of batteries, different charging modes are implemented on the batteries, or, flexible charging is performed on the batteries; or, among multiple battery replacement stations, based on the obtained energy replenishment strategy, and based on the obtained conditions and number of various energy replenishment devices configured in the battery replacement stations and/or the conditions and number of idle devices in various energy replenishment devices (for example, some battery replacement stations mainly perform fast charging, and some battery replacement stations mainly perform slow charging), the battery is scheduled or the user is guided to the battery replacement station using the charging mode corresponding to the state of health and the use condition of the battery or the battery replacement station corresponding to the largest number of idle devices of the corresponding type; cloud scheduling, personal or group historical energy replenishment information is collected from a cloud database, and the battery is scheduled to adopt the suitable energy replenishment strategy through the data analysis of the cloud; and user-guided scheduling, the user is encouraged and guided to adopt an appropriate energy replenishment mode to schedule more batteries to enter the replaceable field or maintain more batteries to remain in the replaceable field. For example, the user guidance can be conducted through user operation means such as issuing battery replacement coupons, and providing free battery replacement services or free vehicle maintenance.
[0062] By performing scheduling-based battery balancing on the batteries in a battery bank, the batteries in the battery bank can have a substantially consistent state of health. Further, by performing the scheduling-based battery balancing on the batteries put into use in the same batch in the battery bank, the batteries put into use in the same batch in the battery bank can have a substantially consistent state of health. It should be noted that the battery bank mentioned here can include batteries within a smaller range, for example, batteries within the range of one or more battery replacement stations, or batteries within a larger range, for example, batteries of all users in the entire cloud database, and by guiding the user, the range of the battery bank can be increased.
[0063] Please refer to Fig. 2, a battery balancing method according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps.
[0064] Step S201: a battery energy replenishment request of the user (vehicle owner) is received. Optionally, the battery energy replenishment request can include energy replenishment mode requirement information and/or energy replenishment time requirement information. For example, the battery energy replenishment request can specifically include whether to select time-limited service or reservation service.
[0065] Step S202: the state of health SOH of the battery is obtained.
[0066] The state of health SOH of the battery is a commonly used indicator to characterize the service life of the battery. The state of health SOH of the battery can be calculated according to known means. The state of health SOH of the battery can be pre-calculated and uploaded and stored in the Internet of Vehicles, when the state of health SOH of the battery needs to be called, the state of health SOH of the battery is obtained by reading the battery ID from the Internet of Vehicles.
[0067] Step S203: whether the state of health of the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform is lower than or equal to a decommissioning set value of the power battery, if the judgment result is yes, the energy replenishment mode to be adopted by the battery is determined as battery replacement, and the replaced battery is used step by step or withdrawn from circulation.
[0068] The decommissioning set value of the power battery is a threshold value used for judging whether the battery should be decommissioned to enter step-by-step use or withdraw from the circulation field of the power battery. The specific value of the decommissioning set value of the power battery can be preset, and the specific value of the decommissioning set value of the power battery can also be obtained in the battery balancing process. Generally, the decommissioning set value of the power battery can be 80%.
[0069] Step S204: the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device in the energy replenishment habit information of the user in the historical energy replenishment information is obtained, and the battery replacement information in the historical energy replenishment information is obtained. The dedicated slow charging device includes a household slow charging pile dedicated to the user.
[0070] Step S205: whether the actual value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device exceeds a preset target value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device, and whether the battery is not replaced within a preset battery replacement period are judged, and if the judgment result is yes, the battery is scheduled or the user is guided to perform energy replenishment in the battery replacement mode. Therefore, through the battery replacement means, the battery undergoing excessive healthy use of the user flows into the energy replenishment scheduling range of the battery bank from the user, and the controllable range of energy replenishment scheduling is expanded.
[0071] In one example, the target value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device is preset as 80%, the battery replacement period is preset as three months, and when it is judged that the actual value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device reaches or exceeds 80 % and that the user does not perform battery replacement within three months, the user is guided to perform battery replacement on the battery being used at present.
[0072] Step S206: the fast charging times of the battery within the recent charging mode cycle period in the historical energy replenishment information are obtained. Here, the length of one charging mode cycle period is set as five times in advance, and the target value of the fast charging times is set as once.
[0073] Step S207: whether the obtained fast charging times of the battery within the recent charging mode cycle period reach a preset target value of the fast charging times, if the actual value of the fast charging times is 1, energy replenishment is performed on the battery in the slow charging mode, or, battery replacement energy replenishment is performed, and slow charging energy replenishment is performed on the replaced battery, and if the actual value of the fast charging times is zero, energy replenishment is performed on the battery in the fast charging mode, or fast charging energy replenishment is performed on the replaced battery.
[0074] Step S208: the state of charge (State of Charge, abbreviated as SOC) of the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform is obtained. The state of charge SOC of the battery is used for indicating the dump energy of the battery.
[0075] Step S209: according to the battery energy replenishment request and the state of charge of the battery, if it is judged that energy replenishment is performed according to the charging mode determined in the previous step, and that the requirements of the energy replenishment time and energy replenishment mode in the battery energy replenishment request cannot be satisfied, the battery is scheduled or the user is guided to perform energy replenishment in the battery replacement mode, and the energy replenishment is performed on the replaced battery according to the charging mode determined in the previous step; and if the requirements of the energy replenishment time and energy replenishment mode can be satisfied, the energy replenishment is performed according to the originally determined charging mode. It should be noted that, in fact, an estimated charging time can be obtained by using the state of charge and the charging current and voltage to be adopted.
[0076] In one example, the battery energy replenishment request can select to perform the time-limited service or the reservation service, after it is judged that the slow charging energy replenishment should be performed on the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform, whether the time-limited service or the reservation service is selected in the battery energy replenishment request initiated by the user is judged, if the time-limited service is selected, then the battery is scheduled to move to the battery replacement station to use the battery replacement service, and if the reservation service is selected, then the battery is scheduled to use the slow charging service, or, the battery is scheduled to use the battery replacement service, and the slow charging energy replenishment is performed on the replaced battery.
[0077] After the energy replenishment strategy is determined, energy replenishment scheduling is performed according to the energy replenishment strategy.
[0078] The battery balancing method of the present invention can be implemented through a cloud server, cloud analysis, and/or cloud scheduling. Please refer to Fig. 3, in some embodiments, the battery balancing method of the present invention includes the following steps: Step S301: the historical energy replenishment information is recorded in the cloud server in advance. Each power battery can be monitored for the entire life cycle from the first time it is put into use, the battery information can be recorded in the Internet of Vehicles or the cloud server, and the battery information can include: the state of health of the battery, the charging times, every charging mode (specifically can be charging current and voltage, or AC or DC, or fast charging or slow charging can be directly recorded), the state of charge or the dump energy or the like. Similarly, the energy replenishment habit information of the vehicle user can also be stored in the Internet of Vehicles or the cloud server. Step S302: the historical energy replenishment information is obtained from the cloud server. Step S303: the obtained historical energy replenishment information is analyzed through the cloud to determine the energy replenishment strategy. Step S304: cloud-based scheduling is performed on the battery or cloud-based guidance is performed on the user of the battery according to the determined energy replenishment strategy.
[0079] Optionally, the batteries put into use in the same batch (or at the same time) can be actively counted according to the method of the foregoing embodiment periodically (for example, a period of three months), among users who do not periodically perform battery replacement, the users who often use household charging piles or users who frequently use fast charging piles are guided, suggested or scheduled to guide them to perform battery replacement, so as to ensure that the same batch of batteries can be used in a balanced manner, the overall efficiency is improved, and the service life is prolonged. In some embodiments, the battery balancing method of the present invention includes: for batteries put into use in the same batch, periodically obtaining the historical energy replenishment information, periodically determining the energy replenishment strategy, and periodically guiding the user of the battery according to the energy replenishment strategy.
[0080] The above-mentioned guidance can be conducted through user operation means such as issuing battery replacement coupons, and providing free battery replacement services or free vehicle maintenance, etc.
[0081] Please refer to Fig. 4, the embodiment of the present invention further provides a battery balancing system, including the following modules.
[0082] A historical energy replenishment information obtaining module 410 is configured to obtain historical energy replenishment information. The historical energy replenishment information includes use degree information, such as a fast charging use degree, and a slow charging use degree. The energy replenishment includes fast charging, slow charging and battery replacement.
[0083] The historical energy replenishment information can be historical energy replenishment information about the battery, such as recording of the health degree of the battery, the past energy replenishment time of the battery, the energy replenishment mode, voltage, current and other information, can also be historical energy replenishment information about a battery user (or vehicle owner), in fact, the historical energy replenishment information about the user is equivalent to the energy replenishment habit information of the user, for example, whether the user has a slow charging device dedicated to the user such as a household slow charging pile, and historical information, such as the times, proportion, frequency or the like of the user using various energy replenishment modes or energy replenishment facilities (for example, the dedicated slow charging device, a slow charging device, a fast charging device, a battery replacement device or the like).
[0084] The use degree information refers to information that can represent the impact of energy replenishment or use on the service life of the battery, and the use degree information also includes a battery use degree and a user use degree. For example, the fast charging use degree or the slow charging use degree includes the use degree of a battery using fast charging/slow charging and the use degree of the user using the fast charging device/the slow charging device.
[0085] The use degree information can be from the start to present and can also be within a preset time period, for example, various battery use degrees can be the impact of the energy replenishment or use on the service life of the battery within the entire battery life period starting from the use, and can also be the impact of the energy replenishment or use within a short period (for example, several times of recent energy replenishment) on the service life of the battery, and various user use degrees can be recorded all the past energy replenishment habits of the user and can also be the energy replenishment habits in recent times.
[0086] In addition, the historical energy replenishment information can be recorded in the cloud in advance, and can be obtained from the cloud when needed. The use degree information can also be queried by reading a vehicle battery ID or reading a user ID through the Internet of Vehicles.
[0087] An analysis and decision module 420 is configured to judge whether an actual value of the obtained fast charging use degree is higher than a preset target value of the fast charging use degree, and/or, judge whether the actual value of the obtained slow charging use degree is higher than a preset target value of the slow charging use degree, and determine an energy replenishment strategy of the battery according to the judgment result. The determining an energy replenishment strategy at least includes: determining an energy replenishment mode to be adopted as fast charging, slow charging or battery replacement. In addition, it can include determining other information, for example, determining the specific voltage and current of charging, determining which battery should be replaced, determining to use which one of the same kind of energy replenishment devices in a battery replacement station, or determining which one of multiple battery replacement stations should be selected.
[0088] The target value of the fast charging use degree and the target value of the slow charging use degree are thresholds of performing a reasonable charging mode. When the slow charging use degree is higher than the target value of the slow charging use degree or the fast charging use degree is lower than the target value of the fast charging use degree, the energy replenishment mode to be adopted by the battery can be determined as a fast charging mode, and when the fast charging use degree is higher than the target value of the fast charging use degree or the slow charging use degree is lower than the target value of the slow charging use degree, the energy replenishment mode to be adopted by the battery can be determined as a slow charging mode, so as to perform energy replenishment on the battery according to the reasonable charging mode, and the states of health of multiple batteries (such as the same batch of batteries) can be balanced to be basically consistent. It should be noted that the specific value of the target value of the use degree can be set in advance, or the specific value of the target value of the use degree can be obtained in a battery balancing process.
[0089] The energy replenishment strategy is determined based on judging whether the battery use degree reaches the target value. Specifically, the energy replenishment can be performed according to a certain ratio of fast charging and slow charging in various ways.
[0090] In a specific mode, the fast charging use degree includes a battery fast charging ratio for representing a proportion of the fast charging times of the battery to the total charging times of the battery starting from the use of the battery or within a preset time period. The analysis and decision module 420 includes a first decision sub-module, configured to judge whether the actual value of the fast charging ratio of the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform reaches or exceeds a preset target value of the fast charging ratio, if the judgment result is yes, determine the present energy replenishment mode as slow charging, or otherwise, determine the present energy replenishment mode as fast charging.
[0091] In a specific mode, the slow charging use degree includes a battery slow charging ratio for representing a proportion of the slow charging times of the battery to the total charging times of the slow starting from the use of the battery or within a preset time period. The analysis and decision module 420 includes a second decision sub-module, configured to judge whether the actual value of the slow charging ratio of the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform reaches or exceeds a preset target value of the slow charging ratio, if the judgment result is yes, determine the present energy replenishment mode as fast charging, or otherwise, determine the present energy replenishment mode as slow charging.
[0092] In a specific mode, the fast charging use degree includes the fast charging times of the battery within a charging mode cycle period, the charging mode cycle period refers to a period composed of successive multiple charging operations of the battery, and the specific value of the charging mode cycle period can be preset. The analysis and decision module 420 includes a third decision sub-module, configured to judge whether the fast charging times of the battery within the recent charging mode cycle period reach or exceed a preset target value of the fast charging times, if the judgment result is yes, perform energy replenishment on the battery in the slow charging mode, or otherwise, perform the energy replenishment on the battery in the fast charging mode. In one example, one charging mode cycle period is set as the duration of five times of charging (including fast charging and slow charging) of the battery, and the corresponding target value of the fast charging times is set as 1; and the fast charging times of the battery within the previous four times of charging are obtained, whether the fast charging times reach or exceed once is judged, if yes, the present energy replenishment mode is determined as slow charging, or otherwise, the present energy replenishment mode is determined as fast charging.
[0093] In a specific mode, the slow charging use degree includes the slow charging times of the battery within a charging mode cycle period, the charging mode cycle period refers to a period composed of successive multiple charging operations of the battery, and the specific value of the charging mode cycle period can be preset. The analysis and decision module 420 includes a fourth decision sub-module, configured to judge whether the slow charging times of the battery within the recent charging mode cycle period reach or exceed a preset target value of the slow charging times, if the judgment result is yes, perform energy replenishment on the battery in the fast charging mode, or otherwise, perform the energy replenishment on the battery in the slow charging mode.
[0094] In yet another specific mode, the use degree information includes historical information of the charging times and the charging mode of the battery, and the target value of the use degree includes a set fast charging interval period, which can be four times, for example. The analysis and decision module 420 includes a sub-module, configured to query the data of the previous four times in the charging history information of the battery, if the fast charging times are not less than one, then schedule to use the slow charging service, or schedule to use the battery replacement service and perform slow charging energy replenishment on the replaced battery; and if the fast charging times are zero, then schedule to use the fast charging service, or schedule to use the battery replacement service and perform fast charging energy replenishment on the replaced battery.
[0095] The principle of formulating the energy replenishment strategy according to a certain ratio of fast charging and slow charging is that the current power battery is not expected to be continuously charged quickly, for example, most batteries are best to be charged in a charging mode in which the ratio of fast charging to slow charging is 1: 4 (once fast charging, 4 times of slow charging), which has little impact on the service life of the battery. Therefore, a periodic fast and slow interval energy replenishment strategy can be implemented. For example, 5 times are used as a fast and slow interval period, within a fast and slow interval period, 4 times of slow charging and once fast charging are used to perform the slow charging and fast charging ratio, and the charging mode can be set as "slow, slow, slow, slow, fast, slow, slow, slow, slow, fast, slow, slow, slow, slow ...".
[0096] When the historical energy replenishment information obtained by the historical energy replenishment information obtaining module 410 includes energy replenishment habit information of the user, and the fast charging use degree includes a degree of the user using a fast charging device, or the slow charging use degree includes a degree of the user using a slow charging device, the analysis and decision module 420 includes a sub-module, configured to judge whether the actual value of the degree of the user using the slow charging device/the degree of the user using the fast charging device of the battery reaches a preset target value, and determine the energy replenishment strategy of the battery according to the judgment result. In one example, the analysis and decision module 420 includes a fifth decision sub-module 425, configured to judge whether the actual value of the ratio of the user using a dedicated slow charging device of the battery exceeds a preset target value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device, and whether the battery is not replaced within a preset battery replacement period, and if the judgment result is yes, determine the energy replenishment mode to be adopted as battery replacement. The ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device is used for representing the proportion of the times of the user using the dedicated slow charging device such as a household slow charging pile to perform energy replenishment to the total energy replenishment times of the user, starting from the initial energy replenishment of the user (the initial energy replenishment is initial energy replenishment relative to all batteries used by the user) or within a preset time period. It should be noted that the user use degree is not limited to be determined by the ratio manner, but can also be determined by a variety of manners such as the cycle period manner.
[0097] Further, various sub-modules of the analysis and decision module 420 can be used for setting multiple target values of the same kind of use degree, or, the analysis and decision module 420 can have multiple different kinds of sub-modules at the same time to synthesize multiple use degrees to determine the energy replenishment strategy. For example, the analysis and decision module 420 can include a sub-module for judging the battery use degree and a sub-module for judging the user use degree at the same time; the energy replenishment strategy can also be determined by using multiple sub-modules for judging different fast charging use degrees (or different slow charging use degree modules); and the analysis and decision module can also include a sub-module for judging the fast charging use degree and the slow charging use degree at the same time, for example, in one example, the analysis and decision module 420 can include a sub-module, configured to consider the preset target value of the fast charging times and the preset target value of the slow charging times in a charging mode cycle period at the same time, if the actual value of the fast charging times reaches the target value of the fast charging times, perform slow charging, if the actual value of the slow charging times reaches the target value of the slow charging times, perform fast charging, otherwise, perform energy replenishment according to the selection of the user, therefore the fast charging and slow charging of the battery can be limited at the same time to better achieve battery balance.
[0098] In addition, it should be noted that, in order to prevent the situation that a new battery is always scheduled to perform battery replacement and fast charging at the beginning of use according to the steps of the foregoing method (in fact, because there is no enough historical energy replenishment information), the several times of energy replenishment mode of the new battery at the beginning can be preset to be fixed, for example, the previous five times of energy replenishment mode of the new battery (or a battery with insufficient historical energy replenishment information) are fixed as slow, slow, slow, slow and fast, or, the energy replenishment strategy can be determined by the analysis and decision module 420 after the battery is charged for certain times.
[0099] A scheduling module 430 is configured to perform energy replenishment scheduling according to the energy replenishment strategy. The energy replenishment scheduling can include scheduling of the battery, and can also include guidance to the user using the battery.
[0100] The scheduling performed by the scheduling module 430 can be specifically implemented in a variety of ways, including: Battery replacement station scheduling, in the same battery replacement station, based on the energy replenishment strategy obtained by analyzing the state of health and the use condition of each battery in a batch of batteries, different charging modes are implemented on the batteries, or, flexible charging is performed on the batteries; or, among multiple battery replacement stations, based on the obtained energy replenishment strategy, and based on the obtained conditions and number of various energy replenishment devices configured in the battery replacement stations obtained by a battery replacement station information obtaining module and/or the conditions and number of idle devices in various energy replenishment devices (for example, some battery replacement stations mainly perform fast charging, and some battery replacement stations mainly perform slow charging), the battery is scheduled or the user is guided to the battery replacement station using the charging mode corresponding to the state of health and the use condition of the battery or the battery replacement station corresponding to the largest number of idle devices of the corresponding type; cloud scheduling, personal or group historical energy replenishment information is collected from a cloud database, and the battery is scheduled to adopt the suitable energy replenishment strategy through the data analysis of the cloud; and user-guided scheduling, the user is encouraged and guided to adopt an appropriate energy replenishment mode to schedule more batteries to enter the replaceable field or maintain more batteries to remain in the replaceable field. For example, the user guidance can be conducted through user operation means such as issuing battery replacement coupons, and providing free battery replacement services or free vehicle maintenance.
[0101] By performing scheduling-based battery balancing on the batteries in a battery bank, the batteries in the battery bank can have a substantially consistent state of health. Further, by performing the scheduling-based battery balancing on the batteries put into use in the same batch in the battery bank, the batteries put into use in the same batch in the battery bank can have a substantially consistent state of health. It should be noted that the battery bank mentioned here can include batteries within a smaller range, for example, batteries within the range of one or more battery replacement stations, or batteries within a larger range, for example, batteries of all users in the entire cloud database, and by guiding the user, the range of the battery bank can be increased.
[0102] Please refer to Fig. 5, a battery balancing system according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the following modules.
[0103] An energy replenishment request receiving module 440 is configured to receive a battery energy replenishment request of the user (vehicle owner). Optionally, the battery energy replenishment request can include energy replenishment mode requirement information and/or energy replenishment time requirement information. For example, the battery energy replenishment request can specifically include whether to select time-limited service or reservation service.
[0104] A battery state of health obtaining module 450 is configured to obtain the state of health SOH of the battery.
[0105] The state of health SOH of the battery is a commonly used indicator to characterize the service life of the battery. The state of health SOH of the battery can be calculated according to known means. The state of health SOH of the battery can be pre-calculated and uploaded and stored in the Internet of Vehicles, when the state of health SOH of the battery needs to be called, the state of health SOH of the battery is obtained by reading the battery ID from the Internet of Vehicles.
[0106] A decommissioning detection module 460 is configured to judge whether the state of health of the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform is lower than or equal to a decommissioning set value of the power battery, if the judgment result is yes, determine the energy replenishment mode to be adopted by the battery as battery replacement, and perform step-by-step use on or withdraw the replaced battery from the circulation field.
[0107] The decommissioning set value of the power battery is a threshold value used for judging whether the battery should be decommissioned to enter step-by-step use or withdraw from the circulation field of the power battery. The specific value of the decommissioning set value of the power battery can be preset, and the specific value of the decommissioning set value of the power battery can also be obtained in the battery balancing process. Generally, the decommissioning set value of the power battery can be 80%.
[0108] The historical energy replenishment information obtaining module 410 is configured to obtain historical energy replenishment information. Specifically, the historical energy replenishment information obtaining module 410 is configured to: obtain the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device in the energy replenishment habit information of the user; obtain battery replacement information in the historical energy replenishment information, wherein the dedicated slow charging device includes a household slow charging pile dedicated to the user; and obtain the fast charging times of the battery within the recent charging mode cycle period in the historical energy replenishment information; and here, the length of one charging mode cycle period is set as five times in advance, and the target value of the fast charging times is set as once.
[0109] A fifth decision sub-module 425 of the analysis and decision module 420 is configured to judge whether the actual value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device exceeds a preset target value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device, and whether the battery is not replaced within a preset battery replacement period, and if the judgment result is yes, schedule the battery or guide the user to perform energy replenishment in the battery replacement mode. Therefore, through the battery replacement means, the battery undergoing excessive healthy use of the user flows into the energy replenishment scheduling range of the battery bank from the user, and the controllable range of energy replenishment scheduling is expanded.
[0110] In one example, the target value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device is preset as 80%, the battery replacement period is preset as three months, and when the fifth decision sub-module 425 judges that the actual value of the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device reaches or exceeds 80 % and that the user does not perform battery replacement within three months, the user is guided to perform battery replacement on the battery being used at present.
[0111] A third decision sub-module 423 of the analysis and decision module 420 is configured to judge whether the obtained fast charging times of the battery within the recent charging mode cycle period reach a preset target value of the fast charging times, if the actual value of the fast charging times is 1, perform the energy replenishment on the battery in the slow charging mode, or, perform battery replacement energy replenishment, and perform slow charging energy replenishment on the replaced battery, and if the actual value of the fast charging times is zero, perform the energy replenishment on the battery in the fast charging mode, or perform fast charging energy replenishment on the replaced battery.
[0112] A state of charge obtaining module 470 is configured to obtain the state of charge (State of Charge, abbreviated as SOC) of the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform. The state of charge SOC of the battery is used for indicating the dump energy of the battery.
[0113] A sixth decision sub-module 426 of the analysis and decision module 420 is configured to, according to the battery energy replenishment request and the state of charge of the battery, if it is judged that energy replenishment is performed according to the charging mode determined in the previous step, and that the requirements of the energy replenishment time and energy replenishment mode in the battery energy replenishment request cannot be satisfied, schedule the battery or guide the user to perform energy replenishment in the battery replacement mode, and perform the energy replenishment on the replaced battery according to the charging mode determined in the previous step; and if the requirements of the energy replenishment time and energy replenishment mode can be satisfied, perform the energy replenishment according to the originally determined charging mode. It should be noted that, in fact, an estimated charging time can be obtained by using the state of charge and the charging current and voltage to be adopted.
[0114] In one example, the battery energy replenishment request can select to perform the time-limited service or the reservation service, after it is judged that the slow charging energy replenishment should be performed on the battery on which the energy replenishment is about to perform, whether the time-limited service or the reservation service is selected in the battery energy replenishment request initiated by the user is judged, if the time-limited service is selected, then the battery is scheduled to move to the battery replacement station to use the battery replacement service, and if the reservation service is selected, then the battery is scheduled to use the slow charging service, or, the battery is scheduled to use the battery replacement service, and the slow charging energy replenishment is performed on the replaced battery.
[0115] The scheduling module 430 is configured to, after the energy replenishment strategy is determined, perform energy replenishment scheduling according to the energy replenishment strategy.
[0116] The battery balancing system of the present invention can be implemented through a cloud server, cloud analysis, and/or cloud scheduling. In some embodiments, the battery balancing system of the present invention includes:a cloud recording module, configured to record the historical energy replenishment information in the cloud server in advance. Each power battery can be monitored for the entire life cycle from the first time it is put into use, the battery information is recorded in the cloud server, and the battery information can include: the state of health of the battery, the charging times, every charging mode (specifically can be charging current and voltage, or AC or DC, or fast charging or slow charging can be directly recorded), the state of charge or the dump energy or the like. Similarly, the energy replenishment habit information of the vehicle user can also be stored in the cloud server.
[0117] The historical energy replenishment information obtaining module 410 is specifically configured to obtain the historical energy replenishment information from the cloud server.
[0118] The analysis and decision module 420 is specifically configured to analyze the obtained historical energy replenishment information through the cloud to determine the energy replenishment strategy.
[0119] The scheduling module 430 is configured to perform cloud-based scheduling on the battery or perform cloud-based guidance on the user of the battery according to the determined energy replenishment strategy.
[0120] Optionally, the batteries put into use in the same batch (or at the same time) can be actively counted according to the method of the foregoing embodiment periodically (for example, a period of three months), among users who do not periodically perform battery replacement, the users who often use household charging piles or users who frequently use fast charging piles are guided, suggested or scheduled to guide them to perform battery replacement, so as to ensure that the same batch of batteries can be used in a balanced manner, the overall efficiency is improved, and the service life is prolonged. In some embodiments, the battery balancing system of the present invention includes: a periodic inventory module configured to, for batteries put into use in the same batch, periodically obtain the historical energy replenishment information, periodically determine the energy replenishment strategy, and periodically guide the user of the battery according to the energy replenishment strategy. The above-mentioned guidance can be conducted through user operation means such as issuing battery replacement coupons, and providing free battery replacement services or free vehicle maintenance, etc.
[0121] It should be noted that, in the foregoing various method and system embodiments, each of the actual values and target values of various use degrees (such as the aforementioned battery fast charging/slow charging ratio, the fast charging/slow charging times of the battery in one charging mode cycle period and other battery use degrees, the ratio of the user using the dedicated slow charging device and other user use degrees) can be a specific, absolute values that only considers a single battery or a single user, and is used for representing the specific conditions of past energy replenishment of the single battery itself or a single battery user, and can also be a ranked, relative value that considers multiple batteries or multiple users within a large range. For example, the ranking battery use degree of a battery can be used for representing the ranking of the battery among all batteries in the battery bank (or the ranking of battery among multiple or all batteries in the same batch) for the battery use degree, and the ranking user use degree of one user can be used for representing the ranking of a battery user among all users (or multiple users using the same batch) for the user use degree.
