    摘要: The disclosure relates to a power replenishment wake-up apparatus and method for a low-voltage battery. The low-voltage battery is applied to a vehicle, and the power replenishment wake-up apparatus includes: a timing unit, a charge monitoring unit, a voltage monitoring unit, and a comparison unit. The timing unit is configured to: start timing when the vehicle enters a vehicle sleep state. The charge monitoring unit and the voltage monitoring unit are respectively configured to monitor a state of charge and a voltage of a low-voltage battery. The comparison unit is configured to: receive a time value from the timing unit, and compare the time value with a first time threshold; receive a value of the state of charge from the charge monitoring unit, and compare the value of the state of charge with a charge threshold; receive a value of the voltage from the voltage monitoring unit, and compare the value of the voltage with a voltage threshold; and send a wake-up signal for power replenishment of the low-voltage battery when the time value is greater than the first time threshold, and/or the value of the state of charge is less than the charge threshold and/or the value of the voltage is less than the voltage threshold for a second time threshold.

The system is applied to a battery swap station, and a charging pile is arranged outside the battery swap station. The system includes: a battery swap summoning unit, an energy replenishment confirmation unit, and a charging summoning unit. The battery swap summoning unit is configured to: arrange a battery swap station for a vehicle to have a battery swapped, and if the arranged battery swap station is capable of meeting battery swap requirements of the vehicle, dispatch a battery swap task to the battery swap station such that the vehicle enters the battery swap station to attempt a battery swap. The energy replenishment confirmation unit is configured to: after the vehicle has attempted a battery swap, determine whether the battery swap for the vehicle is successful; if the battery swap is not successful, further determine whether there is a possibility that the vehicle attempts a battery swap again; if there is a possibility that the vehicle attempts a battery swap again, summon the vehicle to attempt a battery swap again; and if there is no possibility that the vehicle attempts a battery swap again, further determine whether the vehicle meets charging conditions. The charging summoning unit is configured to: if the energy replenishment confirmation unit confirms that the vehicle meets the charging conditions, notify the vehicle to complete energy replenishment by charging at the charging pile.
