Description

本発明は、電池システムに搭載された電池に充電器を接続し、充電器から電池に充電電力を供給して電池を充電する充電システム及びその制御方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a charging system in which a charger is connected to a battery mounted on a battery system, charging power is supplied from the charger to the battery, and the battery is charged.

電池を搭載した電池システムとしては、例えば、電気自動車やハイブリッド車がある。また、鉄道車両においても電池を搭載したものがある。さらには、据置型電池システム、例えば、電池を使った無停電電源システムもある。このような電池システムの電池を充電するには充電器から充電することになる。現状においては、充電器としては電力変換器を用いて交流電力を直流電力に変換し、電池の充電特性に合わせて、充電器側で電力変換器の出力である直流電力を調整し電池への充電電力を得るようにしている。   Examples of a battery system equipped with a battery include an electric vehicle and a hybrid vehicle. Some railcars are equipped with batteries. There is also a stationary battery system, for example, an uninterruptible power supply system using a battery. To charge the battery of such a battery system, the battery is charged from a charger. At present, the charger converts the AC power into DC power using a power converter, and adjusts the DC power, which is the output of the power converter, on the charger side according to the charging characteristics of the battery. I try to get charging power.

図4は、従来の充電システムの構成図である。電池システム11は電池12と電池情報送信部13とを有し、電池12には電源線14aが接続され、電池情報送信部13には通信線15aが接続されている。電源線14a及び通信線15aは一つのケーブル16aにまとめられて外部に引き出され端部にコネクタ17aが設けられている。電池情報送信部13は電池12の種類や電池12の端子電圧等の電池情報を送信するものである。   FIG. 4 is a configuration diagram of a conventional charging system. The battery system 11 includes a battery 12 and a battery information transmission unit 13, a power line 14 a is connected to the battery 12, and a communication line 15 a is connected to the battery information transmission unit 13. The power supply line 14a and the communication line 15a are combined into one cable 16a and drawn out to the outside, and a connector 17a is provided at the end. The battery information transmission unit 13 transmits battery information such as the type of the battery 12 and the terminal voltage of the battery 12.

一方、充電器18は、電池システム11の電池12を充電するための電力を供給するための電源部19と、電源部19からの出力電力を示す電気量を検出する電気量検出器29と、電池システム11に搭載された各種電池12に対応して予め定められた複数個の充電パターンを記憶するメモリ21と、メモリ21に記憶された充電パターンに基づいて充電の基準値を発生する基準値発生回路26と、電気量検出器29で検出された電気量が基準値発生回路26で発生した充電の基準値になるように電源部19からの出力電力を制御する制御装置20とを有している。   On the other hand, the charger 18 includes a power supply unit 19 for supplying electric power for charging the battery 12 of the battery system 11, an electric quantity detector 29 for detecting an electric quantity indicating output power from the power supply unit 19, A memory 21 for storing a plurality of predetermined charging patterns corresponding to various batteries 12 mounted in the battery system 11, and a reference value for generating a charging reference value based on the charging patterns stored in the memory 21 And a control device 20 that controls the output power from the power supply unit 19 so that the amount of electricity detected by the amount-of-electricity detector 29 becomes the reference value of the charge generated by the reference value generation circuit 26. ing.

さらに、電源部19は交流電源22の交流電力を直流電力に変換する電力変換器23と、制御装置20からの指令に基づいて電力変換器23のゲートをオンオフ制御するゲート制御回路24とを有し、電気量検出器29は電源部19の電力変換器23の端子電圧を検出する電圧変成器PT及び電力変換器23の端子電流を検出する電流変成器CTを有している。   Furthermore, the power supply unit 19 includes a power converter 23 that converts AC power of the AC power supply 22 into DC power, and a gate control circuit 24 that controls on / off of the gate of the power converter 23 based on a command from the control device 20. The electric quantity detector 29 includes a voltage transformer PT that detects a terminal voltage of the power converter 23 of the power supply unit 19 and a current transformer CT that detects a terminal current of the power converter 23.

そして、電力変換器23には電源線14bが接続され、制御装置20には通信線15bが接続されている。電源線14b及び通信線15bは一つのケーブル16bにまとめられて外部に引き出され端部にコネクタ17bが設けられている。   A power line 14 b is connected to the power converter 23, and a communication line 15 b is connected to the control device 20. The power supply line 14b and the communication line 15b are combined into a single cable 16b and drawn to the outside, and a connector 17b is provided at the end.

電池システム11の電池12を充電するには、電池システム11のケーブル16aのコネクタ17aと充電器18のケーブル16bのコネクタ17bとを接続する。これにより、電池システム11の電源線14a及び通信線15aが充電器18の電源線14b及び通信線15bにそれぞれ接続される。この状態で充電器18の基準値発生回路26は、電池システム11の電池情報送信部13から電池システム11の電池12の種類や電池12の端子電圧等の情報を入力し、また、入力した電池12の種類に対応する充電パターンをメモリ21から読み出し、電気量検出器29で検出された電源部19の電気量に基づいて充電の基準値を発生する。   In order to charge the battery 12 of the battery system 11, the connector 17a of the cable 16a of the battery system 11 and the connector 17b of the cable 16b of the charger 18 are connected. Thereby, the power supply line 14a and the communication line 15a of the battery system 11 are connected to the power supply line 14b and the communication line 15b of the charger 18, respectively. In this state, the reference value generation circuit 26 of the charger 18 inputs information such as the type of the battery 12 of the battery system 11 and the terminal voltage of the battery 12 from the battery information transmission unit 13 of the battery system 11, and the input battery The charging patterns corresponding to the 12 types are read from the memory 21, and a charging reference value is generated based on the amount of electricity of the power supply unit 19 detected by the electricity amount detector 29.

制御装置20は電気量検出器29で検出された電源部19の電気量を監視しながら電源部19の出力電力を制御する。すなわち、制御装置20は基準値発生回路26からの充電の基準値に基づいて電池システム11の電池12の種類に対応した充電パターンに従って、電力変換器23から電池12に電力を供給できるようにゲート制御回路24を制御する。 The control device 20 controls the output power of the power supply unit 19 while monitoring the amount of electricity of the power supply unit 19 detected by the electric quantity detector 29. That is, the control device 20 gates the power converter 23 so as to supply power to the battery 12 according to the charge pattern corresponding to the type of the battery 12 of the battery system 11 based on the charge reference value from the reference value generation circuit 26. The control circuit 24 is controlled.

ここで、電気量検出器29は、電力変換器23の端子電圧を検出する電圧変成器PT及び電力変換器29の端子電流を検出する電流変成器CTを有したものを示しているが、制御装置20や基準値発生回路26が電池システム11の電池12を充電する際に必要とする電気量が電圧及び電流のいずれか一方である場合には、電圧及び電流のうちの必要とするいずれか一方を入力し、電圧及び電流を必要とする場合には電圧及び電流の双方を入力することになる。   Here, the electric quantity detector 29 has a voltage transformer PT that detects a terminal voltage of the power converter 23 and a current transformer CT that detects a terminal current of the power converter 29. When the amount of electricity required when the device 20 or the reference value generation circuit 26 charges the battery 12 of the battery system 11 is either voltage or current, any of the voltage and current required If one is input and voltage and current are required, both voltage and current are input.

このように、従来の充電システムでは、充電器18に電池システム11が接続されたときは、充電器18は電池システム11に搭載された電池12の種類や電圧等の電池情報を入力し、その電池情報に適した充電パターンをメモリ21から抽出して、その充電パターンに従って電池システム11の電池12を充電するようにしている。   Thus, in the conventional charging system, when the battery system 11 is connected to the charger 18, the charger 18 inputs battery information such as the type and voltage of the battery 12 mounted on the battery system 11, and A charging pattern suitable for the battery information is extracted from the memory 21, and the battery 12 of the battery system 11 is charged according to the charging pattern.

ここで、バッテリ駆動機器および充電器に対してバッテリからその種類や現在の使用条件に関する情報を供給することにより、バッテリ駆動機器が適切にバッテリの残量表示や終止制御または充電を行うことができるようにしたものがある(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
特開平8−37036号公報
Here, by supplying information on the type and current use conditions from the battery to the battery-driven device and the charger, the battery-driven device can appropriately display the remaining amount of the battery, perform termination control, or charge. There is something like that (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
JP-A-8-37036

しかし、従来の充電システムでは、充電器18側で電池システム11に搭載された電池12の種類や電圧等の電池情報を判断し、その電池情報に適した充電パターンに従って電池システム11の電池12を充電するようにしているので、充電器18側で電池12の種類に応じた充電パターンを予め記憶しておかなければならない。従って、新たな電池12が登場する度に、充電器18側でその電池12に対応する充電パターンを用意しなければならない。特に移動体の場合は電池システム11の電池12を充電する充電器18は、現在のガソリンスタンドに当たる箇所に設置されることから、新たな電池12が登場する度に、すべての充電器18に対して一斉に新たな充電パターンを用意することは事実上困難である。新たな充電パターンを用意できなかった場合には、その新たな電池12に対して充電ができない場合が発生したり、充電できたとしてもその電池特性に適した充電パターンでの充電はできないので、電池の寿命に悪影響を与えることがある。   However, in the conventional charging system, battery information such as the type and voltage of the battery 12 mounted on the battery system 11 is determined on the charger 18 side, and the battery 12 of the battery system 11 is replaced according to the charging pattern suitable for the battery information. Since charging is performed, a charging pattern corresponding to the type of the battery 12 must be stored in advance on the charger 18 side. Therefore, each time a new battery 12 appears, a charging pattern corresponding to the battery 12 must be prepared on the charger 18 side. In particular, in the case of a mobile object, the charger 18 for charging the battery 12 of the battery system 11 is installed at a location corresponding to the current gas station. Therefore, every time a new battery 12 appears, It is practically difficult to prepare new charging patterns all at once. If a new charge pattern could not be prepared, the new battery 12 may not be charged, or even if it can be charged, it cannot be charged with a charge pattern suitable for the battery characteristics. May adversely affect battery life.

また、同じ種類の電池12であっても経年変化や使用年数によって充電特性が変化するので、充電パターンを固定せずに充電パターンを変更した方が電池寿命にとっては好ましいことがある。特許文献1のものでは、バッテリの種類や現在の使用条件に関する情報をも考慮に入れて充電を行うものであるが、バッテリの種類や現在の使用条件に関する情報は充電器側で判断して、そのバッテリの特性に適した充電制御を行うものであるので、充電器側でバッテリに適した充電パターン等を予め記憶しておく必要がある。 In addition, even with the same type of battery 12 , the charging characteristics change depending on aging and years of use, so it may be preferable for the battery life to change the charging pattern without fixing the charging pattern. In Patent Document 1, charging is performed taking into account information on the type of battery and current usage conditions, but information on the type of battery and current usage conditions is determined on the charger side, Since charging control suitable for the characteristics of the battery is performed, it is necessary to store in advance a charging pattern suitable for the battery on the charger side.

本発明の目的は、電池システムに搭載された電池の種類によらずその電池の充電特性に従って充電器から充電することができる充電システム及びその制御方法を提供することである。   An object of the present invention is to provide a charging system that can be charged from a charger according to the charging characteristics of the battery regardless of the type of battery mounted in the battery system, and a control method thereof.

電池システム11の電池12を充電するには、電池システム11のケーブル16aのコネクタ17aと充電器18のケーブル16bのコネクタ17bとを接続する。これにより、電池システム11の電源線14aと充電器18の電源線14bとが接続されるとともに、電池システム11の通信線15aと充電器18の通信線15bとがそれぞれ接続される。この状態で充電器18の制御装置20は、通信線15a、15bを介して電池システム11の基準値発生回路26から充電の基準値を入力し、電気量検出器29で検出された電源部19の電気量を監視しながら、その基準値に従って電源部19の出力電力を制御する。つまり、基準値発生回路26からの充電の基準値に従って、電力変換器23から電池12に電力が供給できるようにゲート制御回路24を制御する。ここで、制御装置20は、電池システム11の電池12を充電制御する際に必要とする電気量が電圧及び電流のいずれか一方である場合には、電圧及び電流のうちの必要とするいずれか一方を電気量検出器29から入力し、電圧及び電流を必要とする場合には電圧及び電流の双方を電気量検出器29から入力することになる。 In order to charge the battery 12 of the battery system 11, the connector 17a of the cable 16a of the battery system 11 and the connector 17b of the cable 16b of the charger 18 are connected. Thereby, the power supply line 14a of the battery system 11 and the power supply line 14b of the charger 18 are connected, and the communication line 15a of the battery system 11 and the communication line 15b of the charger 18 are respectively connected. In this state, the control device 20 of the charger 18 inputs the charging reference value from the reference value generating circuit 26 of the battery system 11 via the communication lines 15 a and 15 b, and the power supply unit 19 detected by the electric quantity detector 29. While monitoring the amount of electricity, the output power of the power supply unit 19 is controlled according to the reference value. That is, the gate control circuit 24 is controlled so that power can be supplied from the power converter 23 to the battery 12 in accordance with the charging reference value from the reference value generating circuit 26. Here, when the amount of electricity required for controlling charging of the battery 12 of the battery system 11 is one of voltage and current, the control device 20 is one of the voltage and current required. One is input from the electrical quantity detector 29, and when voltage and current are required, both voltage and current are input from the electrical quantity detector 29.

図2は、電池システム11のメモリ27に予め記憶される電池12の充電パターンの例示の説明図である。図2では、電池12の種類に応じて採り得る適切な4個の充電パターン1〜4を例示している。充電パターンは充電の基準値を発生させるためのパターンである。   FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of the charging pattern of the battery 12 stored in advance in the memory 27 of the battery system 11. In FIG. 2, four appropriate charging patterns 1 to 4 that can be taken according to the type of the battery 12 are illustrated. The charging pattern is a pattern for generating a reference value for charging.

充電パターン1は、充電の基準値として充電開始時に所定の一定電流値I1で充電を行い、電池12の端子電圧が所定値になったら(時点t1)、充電電流値を単調減少させていき、電池12の端子電圧が充電最大電圧値になったら(時点t2)、充電を終了する充電パターンである。   The charging pattern 1 is charged with a predetermined constant current value I1 at the start of charging as a reference value for charging. When the terminal voltage of the battery 12 reaches a predetermined value (time point t1), the charging current value is monotonously decreased. When the terminal voltage of the battery 12 reaches the maximum charging voltage value (time point t2), the charging pattern ends charging.

充電パターン2は、充電の基準値として充電開始時は電流値I2で充電を行い、電池12の端子電圧の上昇とともに、段階的に小さくなる電流値で充電を行う充電パターンであり、電池12の端子電圧が充電最大電圧値になったら、充電を終了する充電パターンである。   The charging pattern 2 is a charging pattern in which charging is performed at a current value I2 at the start of charging as a reference value for charging, and charging is performed at a current value that decreases stepwise as the terminal voltage of the battery 12 increases. When the terminal voltage reaches the maximum charging voltage value, the charging pattern ends charging.

充電パターン3は、充電の基準値として充電開始から充電終了まで一定電流値I3で充電を行う充電パターンであり、電池12の端子電圧が充電最大電圧値になったら、充電を終了する充電パターンである。   The charging pattern 3 is a charging pattern in which charging is performed at a constant current value I3 from the start of charging to the end of charging as a reference value for charging. When the terminal voltage of the battery 12 reaches the maximum charging voltage value, the charging pattern ends charging. is there.

充電パターン4は、充電の基準値として充電開始から充電終了まで一定電流値I4で断続的に充電を行う充電パターンであり、電池12の端子電圧が充電最大電圧値になったら、充電を終了する充電パターンである。ここで示した4個の充電パターン1〜4では、充電の基準値として電流基準値を発生する場合について示しているが電圧基準値とすることも可能である。   The charging pattern 4 is a charging pattern in which charging is intermittently performed at a constant current value I4 from the start of charging to the end of charging as a reference value for charging. When the terminal voltage of the battery 12 reaches the maximum charging voltage value, the charging ends. It is a charge pattern. In the four charging patterns 1 to 4 shown here, a case where a current reference value is generated as a reference value for charging is shown, but it is also possible to use a voltage reference value.

電池システム11のメモリ27には、このような電池12の充電パターンのうち、電池12の種類に応じた適切な充電パターンが予め記憶されており、基準値発生回路26は、電気量検出器25で時々刻々検出される電気量に基づいて電池12の充電状態を判断し、その電池12の充電状態で適切な充電の基準値を充電パターンに従って出力する。例えば、電池12の充電状態に基づいて充電パターンの充電開始時の電流値I1〜I4や電池12の充電最大電圧値を決定したり、また、充電パターン2の場合には段階的に小さくする電流値、充電パターン4の場合には断続する間隔を決定したりして充電の基準値を発生する。従って、基準値発生回路26で発生する充電の基準値は、同じ充電パターンであっても充電開始時の電流値I1〜I4や充電電流を供給する時間間隔が異なり、また、電池12の充電状態により時々刻々変化する。   In the memory 27 of the battery system 11, among the charge patterns of the battery 12, an appropriate charge pattern corresponding to the type of the battery 12 is stored in advance, and the reference value generation circuit 26 includes the electric quantity detector 25. Then, the state of charge of the battery 12 is determined based on the amount of electricity detected from time to time, and an appropriate charging reference value is output according to the charge pattern in the state of charge of the battery 12. For example, the current values I1 to I4 at the start of charging of the charging pattern and the charging maximum voltage value of the battery 12 are determined based on the charging state of the battery 12, or in the case of the charging pattern 2, the current is gradually reduced. In the case of the value and the charge pattern 4, a reference value for charging is generated by determining an intermittent interval. Therefore, the reference value of the charge generated by the reference value generation circuit 26 is different in the time values for supplying the current values I1 to I4 and the charge current at the start of charging even in the same charge pattern, and the charging state of the battery 12 It will change from time to time.

基準値発生回路26で発生した充電の基準値は、前述したように充電器18に送信され、充電器18の制御装置20は、送信されてきた充電の基準値に基づいてゲート制御回路24にゲート指令を出力し電源部19の出力電力を制御する。   The reference value of charging generated by the reference value generating circuit 26 is transmitted to the charger 18 as described above, and the control device 20 of the charger 18 sends the reference value of charging to the gate control circuit 24 based on the transmitted reference value of charging. A gate command is output to control the output power of the power supply unit 19.

ここで、充電器18の制御装置20は、電池システム11の基準値発生回路26から充電の基準値による制御ができないとき、つまり、充電器18の能力を超える充電の基準値であるときは、充電器18の性能(最大電圧、最大電流)を電池システム11の基準値発生回路26に送信する。基準値発生回路26は、充電器18の性能を考慮して、再度、充電の基準値を演算し出力することになる。   Here, when the control device 20 of the charger 18 cannot be controlled by the reference value of the charge from the reference value generation circuit 26 of the battery system 11, that is, when the reference value of the charge exceeds the capacity of the charger 18, The performance (maximum voltage, maximum current) of the charger 18 is transmitted to the reference value generation circuit 26 of the battery system 11. The reference value generation circuit 26 calculates and outputs the reference value for charging again in consideration of the performance of the charger 18.

第1の実施の形態によれば、電力の供給を受ける電池システム11の電池12の種類に合わせて、電池システム11の基準値発生回路26が充電の基準値を充電器18に送信し、充電器18は電池システム11からの充電の基準値に基づいて充電電力を供給するので、充電器18は多種多様な電池システム11の電池12に対して充電を行うことができる。   According to the first embodiment, the reference value generation circuit 26 of the battery system 11 transmits the reference value for charging to the charger 18 in accordance with the type of the battery 12 of the battery system 11 that receives power supply, and charging is performed. Since the charger 18 supplies charging power based on the reference value for charging from the battery system 11, the charger 18 can charge the batteries 12 of various battery systems 11.

(Second Embodiment)
FIG. 3 is a configuration diagram of a charging system according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In the second embodiment, a battery state information storage unit 28 for storing battery state information related to the life of the battery 12 is additionally provided to the first embodiment shown in FIG. is there. The same elements as those in FIG. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.

電池状態情報蓄積部28は、電池12の寿命に関連する電池状態情報を蓄積するものであり、電池12の固有情報に加え時々刻々変動する変動情報も蓄積している。電池12の固有情報は、最大電圧、最大電流、最大温度、経年劣化度合、充電特性等であり、変動情報は、電池電圧、電池温度、電池使用開始からの経過時間、充電経過時間、使用年数(年齢)、使用履歴、充電履歴等である。   The battery state information accumulating unit 28 accumulates battery state information related to the life of the battery 12, and accumulates fluctuation information that changes every moment in addition to the unique information of the battery 12. The specific information of the battery 12 is the maximum voltage, the maximum current, the maximum temperature, the aging deterioration degree, the charging characteristics, and the like. (Age), usage history, charging history, and the like.

そして、基準値発生回路26は、電気量検出器25で時々刻々検出される電気量に加え、電池状態情報蓄積部28に蓄積された電池状態情報も加味して充電の基準値を発生する。また、電池システム11のメモリ27には、複数個の充電パターンが記憶されており、電池状態情報も加味して充電パターンを変更した方が良い場合には充電パターンも変更できるようになっている。 The reference value generation circuit 26 generates a reference value for charging in consideration of the battery state information stored in the battery state information storage unit 28 in addition to the amount of electricity detected every moment by the electricity detector 25. The memory 27 of the battery system 11 stores a plurality of charging patterns. When it is better to change the charging pattern in consideration of the battery state information, the charging pattern can be changed. .

例えば、基準値発生回路26は、電池12の使用年数及び経年劣化度合から判断して、充電パターンiであったものを充電パターンxに変更した方が電池12の長寿命化が図れる場合には、所定の使用年数が経過したときには充電パターンxに変更する。また、最大電流以上となる使用履歴や、急速充電が所定回数以上である充電履歴がある場合には、充電開始時の初期電流値を低めの電流値にしたりして、電池12に掛かる負担を軽減できるような充電の基準値を発生する。
For example, the reference value generation circuit 26 determines the life of the battery 12 by changing the charge pattern i to the charge pattern x based on the age of the battery 12 and the degree of deterioration over time. When the predetermined age has elapsed, the charging pattern is changed to x. In addition, when there is a usage history that exceeds the maximum current or a charging history in which quick charging is a predetermined number of times or more, the initial current value at the start of charging is set to a lower current value, and the load on the battery 12 is reduced. A reference value for charging that can be reduced is generated.

第2の実施の形態によれば、第1の実施の形態の効果に加え、電池12に対し充電による負担を軽減できるので、電池12の長寿命化を図ることができる。   According to the second embodiment, in addition to the effects of the first embodiment, the burden on the battery 12 due to charging can be reduced, so the life of the battery 12 can be extended.
