as an illustration, the power source of the magnetic field excitation system is connected to a power supply grid, and is powered by the power supply grid;
as an application example, the transmitting antenna directly adopts a transmitting coil winding of the transmitting coil to act, and the frequency of an electromagnetic field excited and emitted is in the range of 30KHz to 300 KHz;
furthermore, the magnetic resistance sensor groups are arranged at four corners of the receiving coil and used for detecting the magnetic induction intensity of each point of the electromagnetic field distributed in the parking space area, wherein the electromagnetic field is emitted by the magnetic field excitation system;

as an example of an application, the tunnel magnetoresistance element has the advantages of high precision, high reliability, fast response speed, high sensitivity, low cost, etc., and a magnetoresistance sensor using the tunnel magnetoresistance element has the advantages that under the action of a magnetic field, the change of magnetic induction intensity causes the resistance change of the internal magnetoresistance element, when the internal circuit of the magnetic resistance sensor adopts a Wheatstone bridge structure, the change of the magnetic induction intensity can cause the change of the output voltage of the internal circuit of the magnetic resistance sensor, when the magnetic resistance sensor is internally provided with circuits such as signal amplification, filtering and the like, in the linear range, the output voltage of the magnetic resistance sensor is in a direct proportion relation with the magnetic induction intensity of an external magnetic field, and a voltage signal output by the magnetic resistance sensor is accessed to an analog input end of the vehicle-mounted communication control unit for conversion, processing and analysis, so that the magnetic induction intensity information of corresponding positions and directions can be obtained;
as an application example, the magnetoresistive sensor group may also be installed outside the receiving coil, and needs to be maintained in the same plane with the receiving coil when installed, the number and distribution of the sensors are the same as those when installed at four corners of the receiving coil, three magnetoresistive sensors in the three-axis direction of X ' Y ' Z ' have a fixed positional relationship with one corner of the receiving coil, and coordinates obtained by the magnetoresistive sensors may be conveniently converted into positional coordinates of the four corners of the receiving coil;
the electric automobile wireless charging coil guiding and aligning method comprises the following steps:
step one, when an automobile to be charged approaches or enters a parking space capable of being charged wirelessly, the electric automobile opens a vehicle-mounted communication control unit and establishes communication with a ground communication control unit;
secondly, the ground communication control unit sends a confirmation instruction to the vehicle-mounted communication control unit, starts to guide alignment operation, and sends parking space information, a magnetic field positioning calibration value and a pairing check code value to the vehicle-mounted communication control unit;
as an illustration, the parking space information includes: the length and width of the parking space, the width of the marking line and the size data of the installation position of the transmitting coil;
by way of illustration, the magnetic field location calibration includes: corresponding magnetic induction B within the permissible deviation rangez1Magnetic induction B of the magnetic field corresponding to the perfect alignment of the coilz0
Step three, when the electric automobile is guided to align to work, the ground communication control unit controls the magnetic field excitation system to generate an electromagnetic field; the transmission of the electromagnetic field is divided into two periods, and no signal is transmitted by the electromagnetic signal in the first period; the second period is that the electromagnetic field is emitted to the upper space by the emitting coil; in the first period, the magnetic induction intensity of the ambient magnetic field is measured by the magnetic resistance sensor group; in the second period, the magnetic induction intensity measured by the magnetic resistance sensor group is subtracted from the environmental magnetic induction intensity in the first period, so that the magnetic induction intensity of the magnetic field distributed at the position where the electromagnetic field emitted by the transmitting coil is located can be obtained;
step four, guiding the alignment operation of the electric automobile to adopt an image positioning mode, shooting a panoramic overlook picture of the parking space by a panoramic camera of an image positioning system, converting the picture into a gray picture by an image processing unit through visual angle conversion, identifying a sign line of the parking space according to the color and the geometric characteristics of the sign line of the parking space, reconstructing an outer contour image of the parking space through image processing and correction, and establishing an image coordinate system (shown in figure 3) with image pixels as units according to the resolution of the image processing unit;
the position relation between the transmitting coil and the parking space is fixed, the installation position of the receiving coil on the electric automobile is also fixed, and the image pixel deviation values of the four corners of the receiving coil and the four corners of the transmitting coil on an X-Y plane can be determined according to the position of the panoramic camera and an image coordinate system established by an image positioning system; the image pixel coordinates of four corners of the receiving coil on an X-Y plane can be determined by taking the center (0,0,0) of the transmitting coil as an origin; the geometric dimension of the parking space is known, and the actual dimension value corresponding to the image pixel can be obtained according to the geometric dimension of the parking space, including the length and the width of the parking space or the width of the sign line and other dimension values, so that the actual dimension coordinate of four corners of the receiving coil on an X-Y plane can be determined;
as an example, in order to make the image positioning system better identify and reconstruct the parking space, other mark positions such as a straight line, a geometric figure, a grid and the like can be added in the parking space, and the mark positions and the parking space mark line and the transmitting coil form a fixed position relationship;
step five, the image processing unit sends the obtained four-corner coordinates of the receiving coil to the vehicle-mounted communication control unit, and the four-corner coordinates of the receiving coil are continuously updated by the image positioning system in the process of traveling;
when the guiding alignment operation of wireless charging is manually operated by a driver, deviation between coils can be displayed through terminals such as a mobile phone and a vehicle-mounted center console, a parking path aligned with the coils is indicated according to position deviation planning between the coils, and driving instructions for adjusting the traveling direction such as steering direction and steering angle are displayed for the driver;
when automatic parking or automatic driving is adopted, the coordinates of the four corners of the receiving coil are sent to a parking system, and the parking system plans an automatic parking path and realizes the alignment of the coil;
the electric automobile is operated through the manual operation or the automatic parking system, so that the X' axis of the receiving coil and the X axis of the transmitting coil are superposed when the electric automobile moves, and the electric automobile gradually approaches to the transmitting coil;
step six, when the electric automobile approaches to the position of the transmitting coil gradually, the strength of the electromagnetic field signal sent by the magnetic field excitation system is received by the magnetic resistance sensor group to be increased gradually, because the measurement of the panoramic camera may have delay of processing speed and some calculation deviation, and meanwhile, the external environment may have interference, when the magnetic induction strength of the magnetic field sent by the magnetic field excitation system is enough to cover all the magnetic resistance sensors, the positioning guide operation of the electric automobile is switched to adopt the coordinate data generated by the magnetic resistance sensor group to guide alignment operation in real time;
seventhly, the vehicle-mounted communication control unit sends the continuously acquired magnetic induction intensity, namely 4 × 3 magnetic induction intensity values in the three-axis directions of the four corners X ' Y ' Z ' of the receiving coil, voltage values generated by the change of the magnetic induction intensity are sent to an analog quantity conversion circuit of the vehicle-mounted communication control unit to be processed and converted into digital signals, magnetic field magnetic induction intensities in the three-axis directions of the four corners of the receiving coil are obtained, and four three-axis coordinates of the four corners of the receiving coil are obtained through the conversion of a distribution data model of the magnetic field magnetic induction intensities;
as an example, the magnetic induction intensity distribution data model may adopt a magnetic dipole model, that is, the transmitting coil is idealized to be a magnetic dipole, and the magnetic induction intensity B of the magnetic field in the XYZ triaxial directions at each point in the magnetic field coverage space can be obtainedx、ByAnd BzWhen the transmitting coil center (0,0,0) is taken as the origin of the XYZ triaxial coordinatesMagnetic induction (B) of magnetic field in three-axis direction of certain point (x, y, z)x,By,Bz) Respectively, the following formulas:
wherein,BTthe parameters are fixed parameters related to the transmitting coil, related to the coil turns, material, diameter and other parameters, and need to be calibrated in advance according to different transmitting coils;
according to the model, three-axis coordinates (X, Y, z) of the measuring point can be obtained, so that the coordinates of the four corners of the receiving coil on an X-Y plane can be continuously obtained according to the magnetic induction intensity of the three-axis magnetic field measured by the four corners of the receiving coil;
the deviation of the four corners of the electric automobile driven to the receiving coils in the X axis and the Y axis is reduced to be within the allowable deviation range between the coils when the wireless charging system is charged through the manual operation of a driver or the automatic parking of the automobile and the adjustment of the automatic driving system to the automobile, and the electric automobile is aligned as accurately as possible;
step eight, in the final alignment stage, namely when the projection of the receiving coil and the transmitting coil are overlapped, the final alignment state can be judged or assisted to be judged by adopting a magnetic field positioning calibration value, namely a magnetic field magnetic induction intensity value B corresponding to the magnetic resistance sensor in the Z' axis direction within the allowable coil deviation range is calibrated in advance according to different transmitting coilsz1And magnetic induction B of magnetic field corresponding to the magnetoresistive sensor in the Z' -axis direction when the transmitter coil and the receiver coil are completely alignedz0
When receiving coils with four Z' axesThe magnetic induction intensity of the magnetic field received by the four magnetic resistance sensors is not lower than a calibration value Bz1When the charging is carried out, the transmitting coil and the receiving coil are considered to be aligned, and the position deviation is within the allowable range of charging; when the magnetic field magnetic induction intensity received by the Z' -axis sensors at four corners of the receiving coil is equal or the deviation value is minimum, and the received magnetic field magnetic induction intensity values are not lower than the calibration value Bz0When the transmitter coil and the receiver coil are considered to be perfectly aligned;
and ninthly, after the transmitting coil is aligned with the receiving coil, a checking electromagnetic field is sent through excitation of the transmitting coil, when four magnetoresistive sensors at four corners of the Z axis receive electromagnetic signals with amplitude values exceeding a certain intensity, the long-period electromagnetic signals are taken as 1, the short-period electromagnetic signals are taken as 0, and a binary code consisting of 01 is consistent with a pairing checking code value sent through communication, the checking is successful, the checking process of guiding alignment of the coil is completed, the ground communication control unit sends a signal to the vehicle-mounted communication control unit, confirms that the wireless charging condition is met, and the wireless charging operation is started.
Has the advantages that:
with the rapid development of intelligent driving technology, vision systems such as a look-around camera and the like are increasingly configured on an electric automobile, the accurate position relation between a transmitting coil and a receiving coil can be obtained when the automobile approaches a parking space or just enters the parking space through the image processing of the look-around camera, a driving path can be planned, and a driver or a parking system is guided to complete the alignment of the coils, so that the technical problem that the alignment operation of the electric automobile is easy to fail because the electric automobile needs to approach a detection magnetic field excitation source to obtain guidance data in the related technology is solved;
on the other hand, the magneto-resistive sensor has high sensitivity and detection precision, can provide high-precision coordinate analysis within the action distance, and improves the accuracy and reliability of coil alignment by finishing the final alignment, inspection and verification of the coil by the magneto-resistive sensor;
the invention has scientific and reasonable design, has higher alignment precision, safe and reliable work and higher cost performance compared with the coil alignment operation of wireless charging in the prior art;
