Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a device for recharging the energy storage units of a vehicle, primarily a electric vehicle, comprising a charging unit for conversion of mains distributed electrical energy to an electrical energy which is adapted to the vehicle storage units.
  • the invention also refers to a procedure for recharging the electric vehicle.
  • a electric vehicle is provided with rechargeable batteries that need regular recharging with electrical energy. Besides energy is needed for the vehicle's support apparatuses, for example climate system and temperature control of batteries.
  • an electric vehicle shall be capable of being recharged with different occurring current variations, for example with a voltage from a single-phase of 100 volt to a three-phase of 415 volt and with frequencies of 50 Hz up to 60 Hz.
  • function disturbances that influences the loading for example phase disappearance and power intermission, should be minimized.
  • an extended recharging period with lower current can give the batteries of an electric vehicle added life.
  • the purpose of the present invention is therefor to achieve a device for recharging vehicles, for example electric vehicles that fulfil the above given needs.
  • the device according to the invention is characterized in; means for measuring features of the mains distributed electrical energy, means for detection of charging needs in storage units of the vehicle and a control unit for controlling the charging unit, which is depending on input data from the measuring means and the detecting means.
  • electric vehicles can be recharged anywhere in the world and make good use of the available effect of the electric mains for an optimal utilization. Further the electric distributor can deliver its current with a more uniform power-distribution over twenty-four hours.
  • Fig. 1 shows a device according to the invention schematically as a block diagram
  • Fig. 2 shows a distribution system for electrical energy in a corresponding way.
  • Fig. 1 the reference numerals 10, 11 and 12 indicate the three phases in a distribution mains for three-phase alternating current, while 13 and 14 indicate the zero and ground of the mains respectively.
  • These conductors are in a conventional way parts in a common cable that is connectable by means of suitable connector means to a built-in charging unit 15 in a non shown electric vehicle, which charging unit is suitably constructed by switch-technique and is controlled by a control circuit 16.
  • the control unit 16 is connected to a measurement circuit 17 which among other things senses the voltage in the different phases 10-12 and sends its measured data to the control unit 16, which in its turn regulates the charging unit 15, so that accessible energy is utilized optimally without overload of the power mains.
  • the measurement circuit 17 also includes a transmitter and a receiver for communication via the power mains according to known technique.
  • the control unit 16 is also connected to a detecting circuit 18, which via electronics in the vehicle senses the requirements in the vehicle loads, for example batteries, heat storage, cooling storage or other support apparatuses, whereby the charging process can be optimized via the control unit with regard to input data from the detecting circuit 18.
  • a detecting circuit 18 via electronics in the vehicle senses the requirements in the vehicle loads, for example batteries, heat storage, cooling storage or other support apparatuses, whereby the charging process can be optimized via the control unit with regard to input data from the detecting circuit 18.
  • a keyboard 19, which is connected to the control unit 16, can be used to enter data manually, for instance regarding the power mains capacity, the nominal current of the fuse, available effect at different times a day. Besides the keyboard can be used for input of data regarding date for the next use of the vehicle, whereby the battery recharge can be controlled so that the best charge status of the batteries 20 and eventual heat- and cooling storage 21 are achieved just before the vehicle shall be used. In this way losses in the storage units can be avoided.
  • the above described device can be complemented by providing a nearby house with a local load detector on the power mains, which sends data about available electric energy (deducted from main fuses) to the measurement transmitter and receiver of the circuit 17.
  • the communication via the power mains can also be utilized in such a way that the electricity distributor announce accessible effect both central and local, which is illustrated in Fig. 2 where the reference numeral 22 indicates one central electricity distributor, 23 local electricity distributors, 24 dwelling-houses or recharging stations and 25 electric cars that are connected.
  • the reference numeral 22 indicates one central electricity distributor, 23 local electricity distributors, 24 dwelling-houses or recharging stations and 25 electric cars that are connected.
  • a favourable uniform load on a power-plant can be achieved over twenty-four hours.
  • input data from the circuit 18 can also be included, for example about the cars normal driving cycle, time and date.
  • the vehicle can send information regarding its need and thereby indicating its identity, it can also be connected to a debit system for the energy bought.
