As shown in fig. 2, the battery self-heating apparatus 100 may include: a power battery pack 10, a bidirectional DC-DC converter 20, and a control module 30. Wherein, the power battery pack 10 comprises a first sub-battery pack 11 and a second sub-battery pack 12, and the first sub-battery pack 11 is connected in series with the second sub-battery pack 12. The input terminal of the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 is connected to the first sub-battery pack 11, and the output terminal of the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 is connected to the second sub-battery pack 12. The control module 30 is connected to the first sub-battery pack 11, the second sub-battery pack 12, and the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20, respectively.
In the present invention, the control module 30 may be configured to control the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 to operate to perform the reciprocal charging and discharging of the first sub-battery pack 11 and the second sub-battery pack 12, and the generated alternating current may generate heat in the internal resistance of the first sub-battery pack 11 and the second sub-battery pack 12. For example, the input end of the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 may be connected in parallel to the positive and negative ends of the first sub-battery pack 11, and the output end of the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 may be connected in parallel to the positive and negative ends of the second sub-battery pack 12, the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 is controlled by the control module 30 to operate so as to perform cyclic reciprocal charging and discharging on the first sub-battery pack 11 and the second sub-battery pack 12, during which an alternating current may be generated, and when the generated alternating current flows through the internal resistances of the batteries in the first sub-battery pack 11 and the second sub-battery pack 12, the internal resistances of the batteries in the first sub-battery pack 11 and the second sub-battery pack 12 may generate heat, so that the temperature of the single batteries in the first sub-battery pack 11 and the second sub-battery pack 12 may be rapidly increased.

For example, the first sub-battery pack 11 may be composed of a plurality of single batteries connected in series; the second sub-battery 12 may also be composed of a plurality of single batteries connected in series. That is to say, the utility model discloses a split into two sub-batteries group with the power battery group, first sub-battery group 11 and second sub-battery group 12 establish ties and constitute power battery group 10. Wherein, the sum of the voltages of the first sub-battery pack 11 and the second sub-battery pack 12 is consistent with the total voltage of the power battery pack 10, that is, the total voltage V0 of the power battery pack 10, the voltage V1 of the first sub-battery pack 11, and the voltage V2 of the second sub-battery pack 12 satisfy the following relations: v0 ═ V1+ V2.
That is, the power battery pack 10 of the present invention can be formed by connecting a plurality of battery cells in series, and the present invention divides the power battery pack 10 formed by a plurality of battery cells into two parts, which are divided into a first sub-battery pack 11 and a second sub-battery pack 12, and connects the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 between the first sub-battery pack 11 and the second sub-battery pack 12 in parallel, so that, in a low temperature environment, the control module 30 may start the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 to operate, so that the first sub-battery pack 11 and the second sub-battery pack 12 are charged and discharged reciprocally, the current of the discharging sub-battery pack is direct current (low-temperature discharge has no influence on the performance of the battery pack), the current of the charging sub-battery pack is triangular wave or sine wave, thus, the power battery pack 10 has a cyclic and controllable alternating current flowing through it, so that its internal resistance is rapidly triggered.Heat and power P ═ I2And R, wherein I is an alternating current effective value, and R is the internal resistance of the battery of the power battery pack.
In order to ensure that the current obtained when the energy flows is consistent, optionally, in the present invention, the total voltage of the first sub-battery group 11 is consistent with the total voltage of the second sub-battery group 12.

Since there is a mapping relationship between the input and output voltages of the bidirectional DC-DC converter and the gain characteristic of the converter, in order to ensure that the current obtained when the energy flows is consistent, optionally, in the present invention, the difference between the total voltage of the first sub-battery pack 11 and the total voltage of the second sub-battery pack 12 may be smaller than a target value, wherein the magnitude of the target value is determined by the gain range of the bidirectional DC-DC converter. That is, due to the gain characteristic of the bidirectional DC-DC converter, there is a certain difference between the input voltage and the output voltage of the bidirectional DC-DC converter, and in order to ensure that the currents obtained when the energy flows are the same, there is a certain difference between the voltage of the first sub-battery pack 11 and the voltage of the second sub-battery pack 12, and the difference between the voltages of the two sub-battery packs is determined by the gain range of the bidirectional DC-DC converter.
In order to save costs and achieve the charging and discharging of the two battery packs separated by the power battery pack, the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 may be an isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter. That is to say, the power battery pack can be divided into a first sub battery pack and a second sub battery pack, the two separated battery packs are charged and discharged mutually through an external isolation type bidirectional DC-DC converter, and the self-heating technology of heating through the internal resistance of the battery is adopted.
Fig. 3 is a schematic circuit diagram of a battery self-heating device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Among them, the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter 21 may include: the first bridge arm is formed by connecting a first switching tube T1 and a second switching tube T2 in series, the second bridge arm is formed by connecting a third switching tube T3 and a fourth switching tube T4 in series, the third bridge arm is formed by connecting a fifth switching tube T5 and a sixth switching tube T6 in series, the fourth bridge arm is formed by connecting a seventh switching tube T7 and an eighth switching tube T8 in series, and the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, the first capacitor C1, the second capacitor C2 and the transformer T are connected in series. Two ends of the first bridge arm are respectively connected to the positive end and the negative end of the first sub-battery pack 11, and the half-bridge midpoint of the first bridge arm is connected to one end of a first inductor L1; the other end of the first inductor L1 is connected to one end of the primary side of the transformer T; two ends of the second bridge arm are respectively connected to the positive end and the negative end of the first sub battery pack 11, and the half bridge midpoint of the second bridge arm is connected to the other end of the primary side of the transformer T through a first capacitor C1; one end of the secondary side of the transformer T is connected to the middle point of the half bridge of the fourth bridge arm through a second capacitor C2; the other end of the secondary side of the transformer T is connected to the midpoint of the half bridge of the third bridge arm through a second inductor L2; two ends of the third bridge arm are respectively connected to the positive end and the negative end of the second sub-battery pack 12, and two ends of the fourth bridge arm are respectively connected to the positive end and the negative end of the second sub-battery pack 12.
In the present invention, as shown in fig. 4, the battery self-heating apparatus 100 may further include: a temperature sensor 40. Wherein, the temperature sensor 40 can be respectively connected with the power battery pack 10 and the control module 30, and the temperature sensor 40 can be used for measuring the temperature of the power battery pack 10 and sending the measured temperature of the power battery pack 10 to the control module 30. The control module 30, upon receiving the temperature of the power battery pack 10 from the temperature sensor 40, may control the operation of the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 according to the temperature of the power battery pack 10 measured by the temperature sensor 40. The temperature of the power battery pack 10 measured by the temperature sensor 40 may be an average temperature of the power battery pack 10, which may be obtained by averaging the temperatures of all the battery cells in the power battery pack 10.
For example, when receiving the temperature of the power battery pack 10 sent by the temperature sensor 40, the control module 30 may determine whether the power battery pack 10 needs to be heated by itself at present according to the current temperature of the power battery pack 10, for example, when determining that the current temperature of the power battery pack 10 is less than the first threshold, the power battery pack may be considered to be in a low-temperature environment at present, and at this time, the control module may control the on-off operation of the switching tube in the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 based on the target pulse width modulation control signal, so as to switch the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 between the forward operating state and the reverse operating state.
In the process of controlling the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 to switch between the forward working state and the reverse working state through the control module 30, the temperature sensor 40 may measure the temperature of the power battery pack 10 in real time, and send the measured temperature to the control module 30, and when the control module 30 determines that the current temperature of the power battery pack 10 is greater than the second threshold (where the second threshold is greater than the first threshold), the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 may be controlled to stop working, that is, the power battery pack 10 is heated up at this time, and the temperature of the core of the power battery pack may meet the use requirement, so that the charging capability of the power battery pack is recovered to be normal along with the temperature rise. That is, when the temperature T of the power battery pack reaches the second threshold, i.e., the preset temperature T1, the control module 30 may control the bidirectional DC-DC converter 20 to stop operating, and the charging and discharging processes of the first sub-battery pack and the second sub-battery pack are terminated. When no heating is required, the battery system is not affected because the bi-directional DC-DC converter is in an off state.
In the present invention, taking the bidirectional DC-DC converter as an isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter as an example, the current flow when the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter is in the forward working state can be as shown in fig. 5. The control module can control a first switch tube T1, a second switch tube T2, a third switch tube T3 and a fourth switch tube T4 in the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter to be switched on, a fifth switch tube T5, a sixth switch tube T6, a seventh switch tube T7 and an eighth switch tube T8 are switched off, and control waveforms of the switch tubes T1-T8 can be shown in FIG. 6, wherein the switch tubes T1 and T4 are in phase, and the switch tubes T2 and T3 are in phase. The control module can control the on-off operation of a switch tube in the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter based on a pulse width modulation control signal as shown in FIG. 6, so as to adjust the gain of the converter and control the current by controlling the voltage in the circuit. During the forward operation of the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter, the system energy flows from the primary to the secondary through the transformer T, and the first sub-battery pack 11 charges the second sub-battery pack 12 through the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter 21. And setting the charging time period delta t1 for the second sub-battery pack 12 each time, and when the charging time period t is delta t1, controlling the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter to stop the forward operation and switch to the reverse operation by the control module.
The current flow when the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter is in the reverse operating state can be as shown in fig. 7. The control module can control a first switch tube T1, a second switch tube T2, a third switch tube T3 and a fourth switch tube T4 in the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter to be switched off, a fifth switch tube T5, a sixth switch tube T6, a seventh switch tube T7 and an eighth switch tube T8 are switched on, and control waveforms of the switch tubes T1-T8 can be shown in FIG. 8, wherein the switch tubes T5 and T8 are in phase, and the switch tubes T6 and T7 are in phase. The control module can control the on-off operation of a switch tube in the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter based on a pulse width modulation control signal as shown in FIG. 8, so as to adjust the gain of the converter and control the current by controlling the voltage in the circuit. During the reverse operation of the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter, the system energy flows from the secondary to the primary through the transformer T, and the second sub-battery 12 charges the first sub-battery 11 through the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter 21. Setting the charging time period delta t2 for the first sub battery pack 11 each time, and when the charging time period t is delta t2, the control module controls the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter to stop reverse operation. And then, the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter is controlled to switch between a forward working state and a reverse working state in a circulating and reciprocating mode, at the moment, forward and reverse flowing alternating currents are generated on the first sub battery pack and the second sub battery pack, and the alternating currents flow through the internal resistance of the power battery pack, so that the power consumption of the internal resistance can enable the temperature of the power battery pack to rise.
It is worth noting that in the utility model discloses in, two-way DC-DC converter is the same during the first time that is in forward operating condition at every turn and during the second time that is in reverse operating condition at every turn, and the first time is long and the second is long to be decided by the alternating current frequency that the power battery group can bear the biggest. That is, assuming that the charging period (i.e., the above-mentioned first period of time) is Δ t1 each time the first sub-battery pack is used to charge the second sub-battery pack (i.e., each time the bidirectional DC-DC converter is in the forward operation state), the charging period (i.e., the above-mentioned second period of time) is Δ t2 each time the second sub-battery pack is used to charge the first sub-battery pack (i.e., each time the bidirectional DC-DC converter is in the reverse operation state), Δ t1 and Δ t2 should satisfy: Δ t2 is Δ t 1. The first time period Δ t1 and the second time period Δ t2 may be determined by the maximum sustainable ac frequency of the power battery pack, which may be 100 hz, for example. It is understood that charging in a low temperature environment causes a great loss of the battery, and lithium precipitation occurs to reduce the life of the battery. For charging and discharging of the lithium ion battery for the vehicle, when the frequency is higher, the current is increased without causing any damage to the battery, and the lithium separation phenomenon is more difficult to generate when the frequency is higher. Therefore, based on this characteristic, in order to make the alternating current that produces the forward and reverse flow on first sub-group battery and second sub-group battery, make the internal resistance of group battery produce heat through the alternating current who produces to it is battery temperature rise, the utility model discloses in, this alternating current frequency can be 100 hertz.

It should be noted that, in an embodiment of the present invention, the power battery pack can be split into a plurality of parts, that is, into two or more sub-battery packs, and the two or more sub-battery packs are externally connected to a plurality of bidirectional DC-DC converters to realize the cyclic reciprocal charging and discharging of the two or more sub-battery packs. For example, the power battery pack can be split into 2N sub-battery packs, N is a positive integer, and a bidirectional DC-DC converter is connected in parallel between every two sub-battery packs, so that the two sub-battery packs connected in parallel with the bidirectional DC-DC converter can be charged and discharged in a reciprocating manner, alternating current is generated in the process, and the current passes through internal resistance of the battery, so that the internal resistance of every two sub-battery packs generates heat, and the effect of self-heating of the battery is achieved.
In order to realize the embodiment, the utility model also provides a vehicle.
