Under the standby state of the variable frequency motor, the condition that a motor winding or a connecting wire is grounded possibly occurs due to the interference or corrosion of external force, the variable frequency motor needs to be identified in time and make a shutdown action, and the device is protected from being damaged.
In the driving protection test of the variable frequency motor, the bus voltage is greatly increased before the frequency converter is found to alarm during the test of leakage protection. The analysis circuit finds that in order to charge the bootstrap capacitor when the frequency converter is started, the lower bridge wall of the frequency converter is respectively conducted, and under the condition that one phase of the compressor leaks electricity, the lower bridge wall IGBT, the press winding and the flywheel diode of the upper bridge arm of the frequency converter form a BOOST circuit to raise the voltage of the bus capacitor. It is thus contemplated that the electrical parameter variations herein may be incorporated into a control system to effect control of the earth leakage protection. Compared with the existing leakage protection, the device stress can be reduced, the success rate of protection is improved, and hardware is prevented from being increased.
A variable frequency motor comprises a three-phase winding and a driving circuit, wherein the three-phase winding comprises a first phase winding, a second phase winding and a third phase winding.
The three-phase windings are U-phase windings, V-phase windings and W-phase windings, the first phase winding is U-phase winding or V-phase winding or W-phase winding, and the second phase winding and the third phase winding correspond to the remaining two-phase windings respectively.
As shown in fig. 2, in this embodiment, a U-phase winding is taken as a first phase winding, a V-phase winding is taken as a second phase winding, and a W-phase winding is taken as a third phase winding.
The driving circuit comprises a three-phase rectifying circuit, a voltage acquisition module, a current acquisition module, a capacitor C and an inverter circuit.
The voltage acquisition module is connected to the output end of the three-phase rectifying circuit and is used for acquiring bus voltage.
The capacitor C is connected to the output end of the three-phase rectifying circuit.
The inverter circuit is connected to the output end of the three-phase rectifying circuit.
The inverter circuit comprises a first upper bridge arm, a fourth lower bridge arm, a second upper bridge arm, a fifth lower bridge arm, a third upper bridge arm and a sixth lower bridge arm, wherein the first upper bridge arm, the second upper bridge arm, the third lower bridge arm, the fifth lower bridge arm and the sixth lower bridge arm are connected in series, the first upper bridge arm comprises a transistor Q1 and a diode which are connected in parallel, the second upper bridge arm comprises a transistor Q2 and a diode which are connected in parallel, the third upper bridge arm comprises a transistor Q3 and a diode which are connected in parallel, the fourth lower bridge arm comprises a transistor Q4 and a diode which are connected in parallel, the fifth lower bridge arm comprises a transistor Q5 and a diode which are connected in parallel, and the sixth lower bridge arm comprises a transistor Q6 and a diode which are connected in parallel.
The first phase winding (U-phase winding) is connected between the first upper leg and the fourth lower leg.
The second phase winding (V-phase winding) is connected between the second upper leg and the fifth lower leg.
The third phase winding (W-phase winding) is connected between the third upper leg and the sixth lower leg.
The current acquisition module is positioned between the negative electrode of the capacitor C and the lower bridge arm.
The embodiment aims to reduce the damage rate of devices in the leakage protection by improving a control mode on the basis of not changing a hardware circuit.
The motor further includes a control module.
The control module is used for outputting a pulse opening signal to one of the lower bridge arms, acquiring the current detected by the current acquisition module, and judging the leakage of the variable frequency motor when the current detected by the current acquisition module exceeds a current set threshold value.
The width of the pulse opening signal needs to meet the condition that the instantaneous peak current of the lower bridge arm receiving the pulse opening signal when in short circuit does not exceed the maximum rated value of I FM parameters. The I FM parameter is the maximum rating specified in the specification corresponding to the transistor IGBT of the lower leg.
Because the current rises in one process, the devices on the bridge arm are not damaged by controlling the width of the pulse on signal.
Preferably, the width of the pulsed on signal is generally between 5us and 50 us.
The current setting threshold value is larger than the normal current value detected by the current acquisition module when the variable frequency motor works normally, and is smaller than the demagnetizing current of the variable frequency motor.
In the embodiment, a new control logic is adopted, a narrow pulse control signal is given to the lower bridge arm before the motor is started, the conduction time is shortened, and the leakage protection can be realized by matching with the current acquisition module, so that the stress of the lower bridge arm is reduced.
Taking the U-phase winding group as an example for explanation:
When the U phase winding is grounded, the potential at the U0 position is 0 (GND), and the potential of the cathode of the capacitor C is lower than 0 (ground). The control module gives a pulse on signal to the Q4, at the moment, current flows from U0 to the cathode of the capacitor C and is captured by the current acquisition module, the control module receives the information transmitted by the current acquisition module and judges that the current exceeds a set threshold value, and the control module stops and alarms for electric leakage. Since the on-time of Q4 is extremely short, the device stress is controllable.
The control module is used for continuously outputting PWM signals to the lower bridge arm receiving a pulse opening signal when the current detected by the current acquisition module does not exceed the current set threshold value, acquiring the voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module, and judging whether the variable frequency motor is leaked or not according to the voltage information.
Specifically, when the voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module exceeds a voltage set threshold, the leakage of the variable frequency motor is judged.
The control module judges that the response of the voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module exceeds a voltage set threshold is of ms level, so that breakdown caused by overhigh voltage at two ends of the capacitor C can be avoided, and the capacitor C is protected.
The voltage setting threshold is smaller than or equal to the withstand voltage value of the capacitor, so that the capacitor C is further protected.
Taking the example that the U-phase winding is not grounded and the V-phase winding is grounded, the following description is made:
When the V-phase winding is grounded, the potential at the V0 position is 0 (GND), and the potential of the cathode of the capacitor C is lower than 0 (ground). A pulse on signal is given to Q4 by a control module, at the moment, current flows to the cathode of an electrolytic capacitor from U0 and is captured by a current acquisition module, the control module receives information transmitted by the current acquisition module and judges that the current does not exceed a set threshold value, the control module continuously outputs PWM signals to Q4, a BOOST circuit is formed by a Q4 phase winding, a U phase winding and a Q1 anti-parallel diode, and the BOOST circuit principle is that when Q4 is on, the current flows through V0-V phase winding, U phase winding, Q4 and a capacitor C cathode to charge the U phase winding (inductance), and when Q4 is off, the current flows through the U phase winding, the Q1 anti-parallel diode and a capacitor C anode to charge the capacitor C simultaneously, and the voltage of the capacitor C is raised. The voltage acquisition module detects that the bus voltage exceeds a voltage set threshold value, and transmits information to the control module, and the control module stops and alarms for electric leakage. Overstress can not be caused to related devices in the whole process.
In the embodiment, the BOOST circuit formed by the motor winding, the lower bridge arm switch tube and the upper bridge arm anti-parallel diode is utilized, and the leakage protection is realized by detecting the busbar voltage, so that the detection method has extremely low device stress. The leakage protection function is realized without increasing the stress of the device, and the manufacturing cost is not increased.
The detection method that the U-phase winding is not grounded and the W-phase winding is grounded is the same as the detection method that the U-phase winding is not grounded and the V-phase winding is grounded, and the detection method is not repeated here.
Further, in order to avoid breakdown of the capacitor C by the voltage setting threshold judgment method, it is preferable to calculate the voltage rising rate, and advance judgment can be performed. Specifically, the control module is used for continuously outputting a PWM signal to a lower bridge arm receiving a pulse on signal when the current detected by the current acquisition module does not exceed a current set threshold value, acquiring the voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module, calculating the voltage rising rate, and judging the leakage of the variable frequency motor when the voltage rising rate exceeds the voltage rising rate set threshold value. Wherein the voltage rise rate threshold is determined in advance.
The control module is used for detecting the leakage of the variable frequency motor phase by phase, and of course, the detection sequence of the three-phase winding is not limited.
The control module is used for outputting a pulse opening signal to the fourth lower bridge arm, acquiring current detected by the current acquisition module, judging the leakage of the variable frequency motor when the current detected by the current acquisition module exceeds a current set threshold value, continuously outputting a PWM signal to the fourth lower bridge arm when the current detected by the current acquisition module does not exceed the current set threshold value, acquiring voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module, and judging the leakage of the variable frequency motor when the voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module exceeds the voltage set threshold value or the voltage rising rate exceeds the voltage rising rate set threshold value;
The control module is used for outputting a pulse opening signal to a fifth lower bridge arm, acquiring current detected by the current acquisition module, judging the leakage of the variable frequency motor when the current detected by the current acquisition module exceeds a current set threshold value, continuously outputting a PWM signal to the fifth lower bridge arm when the current detected by the current acquisition module does not exceed the current set threshold value, acquiring voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module, and judging the leakage of the variable frequency motor when the voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module exceeds the voltage set threshold value or the voltage rising rate exceeds the voltage rising rate set threshold value;
The control module is used for outputting a pulse opening signal to the sixth lower bridge arm to acquire and judge the leakage of the variable frequency motor, continuously outputting a PWM signal to the sixth lower bridge arm when the current detected by the current acquisition module does not exceed a current set threshold value, acquiring the voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module, and judging the leakage of the variable frequency motor when the voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module exceeds the voltage set threshold value or the voltage rising rate exceeds the voltage rising rate set threshold value;
And when the voltage detected by the voltage acquisition module does not exceed the voltage set threshold, judging that the variable frequency motor does not leak electricity.
As shown in fig. 3, the leakage detection method of the variable frequency motor includes the following steps:
S1, starting.
S2, a pulse opening signal is given to Q4.
S3, judging whether the current acquired by the current acquisition module exceeds a current setting threshold, if so, entering a step S6, otherwise, entering a step S4.
And S4, continuously outputting the PWM signal to the Q4.
S5, judging whether the voltage acquired by the voltage acquisition module exceeds a voltage set threshold, if so, entering a step S6, otherwise, entering a step S7.
S6, stopping the machine to give an alarm, and entering a step S7.
S7, ending.
The above embodiment first detects the U phase and then detects the V, W phases.
Of course, in some embodiments, the V phase may be detected first, and then the U, W phase may be detected, in step S2, by providing Q5 with a pulse on signal, and in step S4, continuously outputting the PWM signal to Q5.
In other embodiments, the W phase may be detected first, and then the U, V phase may be detected, in which case a pulse is applied to Q6 in step S2, and a PWM signal is continuously output to Q6 in step S4.
An air conditioner comprises the variable frequency motor, and the variable frequency motor is applied to a compressor.
