Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Ansteuerverfahren nach der Gattung des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1 bzw. des Anspruchs 3.The invention relates to a control method according to the Genus of the preamble of claim 1 and Claim 3.

Bei bekannten Wärmegeräten ist mittels eines zu einem Heizwiderstand in Reihe geschalteten Schalters eine feinfühlige Beeinflussung der Temperatur der abgegebenen Warmluft in Abhängigkeit eines einstellbaren Sollwertes möglich. Hierfür wird der Schalter in bekannter Weise mit einer Impulspaketsteuerung gesteuert. Die vom Heizwiderstand abgegebene Heizleistung wird dabei durch impulsartiges Ansteuern des Schalters, im allgemeinen eines Triac, im Spannungsnulldurchgang eingestellt. Da das Verhältnis von Impulslängen zu Impulspausen beliebig gewählt werden kann, kann die Heizleistung auf diese Weise zwischen Null und der maximal durch den Heizkörper umsetzbaren Leistung nahezu beliebig variiert werden.In known heating devices is one to one Heating resistor in series switch one sensitive influence on the temperature of the dispensed Warm air depending on an adjustable setpoint possible. For this purpose, the switch is used in a known manner controlled by a pulse packet controller. The ones from The heating power output is given by pulsed activation of the switch, generally one Triac, set in the voltage zero crossing. Since that Any ratio of pulse lengths to pulse pauses can be selected, the heat output in this way between zero and the maximum by the radiator feasible performance can be varied almost arbitrarily.

An die Spannungsrückwirkung auf Stromnetze werden in jüngster Zeit erhöhte Anforderungen gestellt (Flickernorm EN 61000-3-3). So sind zum Beispiel bei einer für Handhaartrockner oder Trockenhauben gebräuchlichen zu schaltenden Leistung von normalerweise > 1000 W vorschriftsbedingt so große Schaltintervalle erforderlich, daß die Zeitkonstanten schneller Heizkörpersysteme deutlich überschritten werden und somit zu starke Temperaturschwankungen der Ausblasluft auftreten. Die erlaubten Schaltzeiten werden erst bei für Handhaartrocknern und Trockenhauben deutlich zu geringeren Nennleistungen annehmbar klein. Eine Lösung nach der DE 40 23 250 A1 geht den Weg, den Heizkörper in zwei oder mehrere Teilwiderstände niedriger Leistung aufzuteilen, und ein schnell aufeinanderfolgendes, gleichzeitiges Schalten der Teilwiderstände in geeigneter Weise zu verhindern. Dieses Verfahren ist jedoch technisch/konstruktiv aufwendig und zur Nachrüstung in bestehenden Geräten nur beschränkt geeignet.At the voltage feedback on power grids are in Recently, increased demands have been made (flicker standard EN 61000-3-3). For example, one for Hand-held hair dryers or drying hoods are used too switching power of normally> 1000 W According to regulations, such large switching intervals are required that the time constants of fast radiator systems are clear exceeded and thus excessive temperature fluctuations the exhaust air occur. The allowed Switching times are only for hand hair dryers and Drying hoods significantly lower nominal power acceptably small. A solution according to DE 40 23 250 A1 goes the way, the radiator in two or more Split resistors of low power, and a rapid successive, simultaneous switching of the To prevent partial resistances in a suitable manner. This However, the process is technically / constructively complex only limited for retrofitting in existing devices suitable.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, ein flickerminimiertes Ansteuerverfahren zu schaffen, das durch einfache Maßnahmen ein Beibehalten eines ungeteilten Heizkörpers erlaubt, wahlweise aber auch in Systemen mit aufgeteilten Heizsträngen einsetzbar ist.The object of the present invention is therefore a to create a flicker-minimized control process that simple measures to maintain an undivided Radiator allowed, but optionally also in systems with divided heating strands can be used.

Diese Aufgabe wird nach dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 bzw. des Anspruchs 3 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen gehen aus den Unteransprüchen hervor.This task is performed according to the distinctive part of the Claim 1 and claim 3 solved. advantageous Further training results from the subclaims.

Figur 1 zeigt ein prinzipielles Blockschaltbild einer flickerminimierten Leistungssteuerung mittels elektronischer Schalter für mindestens ein Heizelement eines netzbetriebenen Wärmegeräts, wobei ein Mikrokontroller mittels einer Nulldurchgangserkennung der Netzhalbwellen positive und negative Halbwellen erkennt und einen Leistungsschalter mit entsprechenden Halbwellen-Pulspaketen ansteuert. Über eine Leistungseinstelleinrichtung kann eine bestimmte Leistung vorgegeben werden.Figure 1 shows a basic block diagram of a Flicker-minimized power control using electronic switch for at least one heating element a network-operated heating device, wherein a Microcontroller by means of a zero crossing detection of the Network half-waves detects positive and negative half-waves and a circuit breaker with corresponding half-wave pulse packets controls. Via a power setting facility a certain performance can be specified.

Ein prinzipielles Blockschaltbild einer temperaturabhängigen (geregelten) Leistungssteuerung zeigt Figur 2, wobei ein Temperatur-Sollwert vorgegeben wird, der mittels eines mit dem Heizelement thermisch gekoppelten Temperatursensors erfaßten Temperatur-Istwerts vom Mikrokontroller verglichen wird und den Leistungsschalter mit entsprechenden Pulspaketen ansteuert.A basic block diagram of a temperature-dependent (regulated) power control is shown in FIG. 2, whereby a temperature setpoint is specified, which by means of one thermally coupled to the heating element Temperature sensor detected actual temperature from Microcontroller is compared and the circuit breaker controlled with appropriate pulse packets.

In der Figur 3 wird am Beispiel von sieben Pulspaketen 2, 3, 11-14, 21 das Leistungssteuerverfahren in einem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel näher beschrieben. Die Leistung pro Periode T wird über die Größe von Pulspaketen 1-21 gesteuert. Die Pulspakete 1-21 bestehen aus einer Reihe von Netzhalbwellen A, B, C, wobei die Halbwellen A, B einer ersten Polarität in gleicher Anzahl in Abhängigkeit von der Leistung anfangs- und endseitig der Periode T aufeinanderfolgend angeordnet sind. Bei über 50 % Leistungssteuerung werden dem Pulspaket 12-21 in Abhängigkeit von einer weiteren Leistung weitere Halbwellen C einer zweiten Polarität aufeinanderfolgend zugeordnet, wobei die Polaritäten der Netzhalbwellen A, B, C nach jeder Periode T zyklisch getauscht werden. Das zyklische Tauschen hat den Vorteil, daß das Netz mit wenig Gleichstromanteilen belastet wird. Aus Darstellungsgründen ist hier (wie auch nach der Figur 4) eine Periodenzeit T entsprechend 20 Netzvollwellen (= 40 Netzhalbwellen) gewählt. In der Praxis dürfte eine Periodenzeit T entsprechend 50 Netzvollwellen (= 50 Hz = 1 s) gebräuchlich sein. Nach der gewählten Periode T sind 21 Leistungsstufen von 0 % bis 100 % möglich, was die folgende Tabelle zeigt. Halbwellen Leistung in % Pulspaket A B C 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 5 2 2 2 0 10 3 3 3 0 15 4 4 4 0 20 5 5 5 0 25 6 6 6 0 30 7 7 7 0 35 8 8 8 0 40 9 9 9 0 45 10 10 10 0 50 11 10 10 2 55 12 10 10 4 60 13 10 10 6 65 14 10 10 8 70 15 10 10 10 75 16 10 10 12 80 17 10 10 14 85 18 10 10 16 90 19 10 10 18 95 20 10 10 20 100 21 In FIG. 3, the power control method in a first exemplary embodiment is described in more detail using the example of seven pulse packets 2, 3, 11-14, 21. The power per period T is controlled via the size of pulse packets 1-21. The pulse packets 1-21 consist of a series of network half-waves A, B, C, the half-waves A, B of a first polarity in the same number being arranged in succession depending on the power at the beginning and end of the period T. With more than 50% power control, the pulse packet 12-21 is assigned further half-waves C of a second polarity in succession as a function of a further power, the polarities of the network half-waves A, B, C being exchanged cyclically after each period T. Cyclical swapping has the advantage that the network is loaded with few DC components. For reasons of illustration, a period T corresponding to 20 full network waves (= 40 network half-waves) is selected here (as also according to FIG. 4). In practice, a period T corresponding to 50 full network waves (= 50 Hz = 1 s) should be common. After the selected period T, 21 power levels from 0% to 100% are possible, which is shown in the following table. half-wave Performance in% pulse packet A B C 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 5 2 2 2 0 10 3 3 3 0 15 4 4 4 0 20 5 5 5 0 25 6 6 6 0 30 7 7 7 0 35 8th 8th 8th 0 40 9 9 9 0 45 10 10 10 0 50 11 10 10 2 55 12 10 10 4 60 13 10 10 6 65 14 10 10 8th 70 15 10 10 10 75 16 10 10 12 80 17 10 10 14 85 18 10 10 16 90 19 10 10 18 95 20 10 10 20 100 21

Die Halbwellen C können - wie dargestellt - mittig wie auch anfangs - oder endseitig der Periode T angeordnet sein.The half-waves C can - as shown - in the middle as well be arranged at the beginning or end of the period T.

In der Figur 4 wird am Beispiel von sieben Pulspaketen 2', 3', 11'-14', 21' das Leistungssteuerverfahren in einem zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel näher beschrieben. Die Leistung pro Periode T wird über die Größe von Pulspaketen 1'-21' gesteuert. Die Pulspakete 1'-21' bestehen aus einer Reihe von Netzhalbwellen D, E, wobei die Halbwellen D einer ersten Polarität anfangsseitig der Periode T und die Halbwellen E einer zweiten Polarität endseitig der Periode T in gleicher Anzahl in Abhängigkeit von der Leistung aufeinanderfolgend angeordnet sind. Auch hier sind von den 21 Pulspaketen 1'-21' (entsprechend 21 Leistungsstufen) nur die Pulspakete 2', 3', 11'-14' und 21' dargestellt. Die entsprechenden 21 Leistungsstufen könnten manuell mittels eines entsprechenden Stufenschalters oder dergleichen über einen Mikrokontroller gesteuert oder wahlweise eine Temperaturregelung nach der Figur 2 vorgesehen werden. Nach der gewählten Periode T sind die 21 Leistungsstufen (0 % bis 100 %) in 5 %-Leistungsschritten aufgebaut, was die folgende Tabelle zeigt. Halbwellen Leistung in % Pulspaket D E 0 0 0 1' 1 1 5 2' 2 2 10 3' 3 3 15 4' 4 4 20 5' 5 5 25 6' 6 6 30 7' 7 7 35 8' 8 8 40 9' 9 9 45 10' 10 10 50 11' 11 11 55 12' 12 12 60 13' 13 13 65 14' 14 14 70 15' 15 15 75 16' 16 16 80 17' 17 17 85 18' 18 18 90 19' 19 19 95 20' 20 20 100 21' In FIG. 4, the power control method is described in more detail in a second exemplary embodiment using the example of seven pulse packets 2 ', 3', 11'-14 ', 21'. The power per period T is controlled via the size of pulse packets 1'-21 '. The pulse packets 1'-21 'consist of a series of network half-waves D, E, the half-waves D of a first polarity at the beginning of the period T and the half-waves E of a second polarity at the end of the period T being successively arranged in an equal number depending on the power , Here too, of the 21 pulse packets 1'-21 '(corresponding to 21 power levels) only the pulse packets 2', 3 ', 11'-14' and 21 'are shown. The corresponding 21 power levels could be controlled manually by means of a corresponding step switch or the like via a microcontroller, or a temperature control according to FIG. 2 could optionally be provided. After the selected period T, the 21 power levels (0% to 100%) are built up in 5% power steps, which is shown in the following table. half-wave Performance in% pulse packet D e 0 0 0 1' 1 1 5 2 ' 2 2 10 3 ' 3 3 15 4 ' 4 4 20 5 ' 5 5 25 6 ' 6 6 30 7 ' 7 7 35 8th' 8th 8th 40 9 ' 9 9 45 10 ' 10 10 50 11 ' 11 11 55 12 ' 12 12 60 13 ' 13 13 65 14 ' 14 14 70 15 ' 15 15 75 16 ' 16 16 80 17 ' 17 17 85 18 ' 18 18 90 19 ' 19 19 95 20 ' 20 20 100 21 '

Ab einer Leistung von 55 % gehen die Halbwellen D, E - je nach weiterer Leistungshöhe - in entsprechende Vollwellen über. Der sich ergebende Gleichanteil ist in seinem maximal zulässigen Wert in der Norm EN 61000-3-2 eingearbeitet und darf maximal ca. 1160 W bei reiner Halbwellenansteuerung betragen. Zur weiteren Entlastung des Stromnetzes wird vorgeschlagen, die Polarität der Pulspakete in für die Flickernorm unschädlichen Zeitabständen, zyklisch zu tauschen, um im Mittelwert den Gleichanteil zu reduzieren (Figur 6). Desweiteren wird so die Gleichstrombelastung von Kontakten u. ä. reduziert. Wie Messungen zeigen, kann bei guter Regelgüte und schnellem ungeteiltem Heizkörpersystem mehr als 1000 W unter Einhaltung der Grenzwerte der Norm EN 6100-3-2 mit diesem Verfahren eine Kurzzeitleistung Pst (Power short time/Meßzeit = 10 Minuten) auf Werte weit unter den Grenzwert von 1 gesenkt werden.From an output of 55%, the half-waves D, E go - each after further power - in corresponding full waves about. The resulting DC component is at its maximum permissible value incorporated in the standard EN 61000-3-2 and may be a maximum of approx. 1160 W with pure half-wave control be. To further relieve the power grid suggested the polarity of the pulse packets in for the Flickernorm harmless intervals, cyclically too swap in order to reduce the average component (Figure 6). Furthermore, the direct current load of Contacts u. reduced. As measurements show, at good control quality and fast undivided radiator system more than 1000 W in compliance with the limit values of the EN standard 6100-3-2 with this method a short-term power Pst (Power short time / measuring time = 10 minutes) to values far can be reduced below the limit of 1.

In der Figur 5 sind zwei aufeinanderfolgende Perioden T1 und T2 mit zwei gleichen Pulspaketen 13', 13' (Figur 4) dargestellt, wobei hier beim Periodenwechsel ein Vollwellensprung X entsteht, der in einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung nach der Figur 6 dadurch vermieden wird (wie auch die Dauer von Halbwellen gleicher Polarität), daß die Polaritäten der Halbwellen D', E' nach jeder Periode T1 zyklisch getauscht werden (T1, T2 usw.).FIG. 5 shows two successive periods T 1 and T 2 with two identical pulse packets 13 ', 13' (FIG. 4), a full wave jump X occurring here when the period changes, which is avoided in a further development of the invention according to FIG. 6 (as well as the duration of half-waves of the same polarity) that the polarities of the half-waves D ', E' are exchanged cyclically after each period T 1 (T 1 , T 2 etc.).

In der Figur 7 sind zwei Pulspakete 13, 13 (Figur 3) dargestellt, wobei die Polaritäten der Halbwellen A, B, C der Periode T1 zyklisch getauscht werden (T2 = A', B', C'/T1 = A, B, C), wodurch der Gleichanteil minimiert wird.FIG. 7 shows two pulse packets 13, 13 (FIG. 3), the polarities of the half waves A, B, C of the period T 1 being exchanged cyclically (T 2 = A ', B', C '/ T 1 = A , B, C), whereby the DC component is minimized.

Für ein Ansteuern über ein Heizelement hinaus wird vorgeschlagen, daß ein erstes Heizelement mit der ersten und ein zweites Heizelement mit der zweiten Polarität von Halbwellen A, B, C bzw. D, E beaufschlagt wird, oder daß zyklisch ein erstes Heizelement mit der ersten Periode T1 und ein zweites Heizelement mit der zweiten Periode T2 beaufschlagt wird. In einer Weiterbildung ist das Leistungsverfahren in einer Temperaturregelung integriert, wobei als Wärmegerät ein Wärmebehandlungsgerät für Kopfhaar vorgesehen werden kann.For actuation beyond a heating element, it is proposed that a first heating element with the first and a second heating element with the second polarity of half-waves A, B, C or D, E be applied, or that a first heating element cyclically with the first period T 1 and a second heating element with the second period T 2 is applied. In one development, the power process is integrated in a temperature control, and a heat treatment device for head hair can be provided as the heating device.
