Abstract
The invention relates to a three-phase asynchronous electric motor for domestic appliances, comprising power elements, such as traics or relays, for charge control. The power elements other than the relays are controlled by at least one microcontroller with the aid of an optical insulation means, ensuring electronic programming and also control of the motor with the aid of a command. The microcontroller or microcontrollers are references to a zero potential of a recovery and filter block feeding the motor. The controller can be applied to a washing machine in order to control the electric motor which rotationally drives the drum.
Description
- The present invention relates to electronic circuits for domestic electrical appliances, the main field of use of the invention being that of washing machines. This invention relates in particular to an electronic card equipped with a controller for three-phase asynchronous motor or a chopper for universal motor.
- The types of electric motor recently used in this field, such as three-phase asynchronous motors, require a more complex control than the universal electric motors or single-phase asynchronous motors conventionally used in domestic electrical appliances. Normally, an electronic card separate from that of the programmer is used, dedicated to this new motor control requirement, which raises complex problems of interfacing the two electronic cards and the need to be able to modify and adapt these electronic cards significantly for them to communicate.
- In order to overcome these drawbacks, a choice can be made to combine the two programmer and motor control functions on one and the same electronic card, which can, because in this case only one card is used instead of two, be a way of reducing the corresponding costs and simplifying the power supply.
- However, the two programmer and motor control functions cannot be referenced to the same potentials. In practice, the electronic programmer card is normally referenced to the neutral potential to be able to control the load control triacs, whereas the motor control card is placed after a rectifying diode bridge and is therefore referenced to the neutral potential but also to the phase, alternately.
- To make these two programmer and motor control functions communicate, it is therefore necessary to electrically insulate the communication. There is also a need for a microcontroller for each of these two functions and referenced to the reference of the function. More particularly, the programmer microcontroller must be referenced to the neutral potential, whereas the motor control microcontroller is referenced to the “zero” potential of the rectifying diode bridge, each microcontroller having a separate power supply.
- In order to overcome these constraints, it has already been proposed to move the optical communication insulation, so that the two functions are referenced to the same potential.
- Based on this principle, a known solution consists in referencing these two functions to the neutral potential. In this case, it is necessary to place the optical insulation in the power part of the motor control function. However, the optical insulation is more restrictive when it comes to the motor control power, because the frequencies of the signals are high (from 16 to 24 kHz) and the delays induced by the insulation must be low. This in why the components capable of providing this function are expensive. Furthermore, given that the control power part of the motor is insulated from the microcontroller, the latter cannot directly perform, on the control power part of the motor, the current or voltage measurements necessary for the control function. This solution is therefore costly and is not suitable for all motor control contexts.
- The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks by proposing a simple and cost-effective solution based on the general principle of shifting the optical communication insulation, so that the two functions are referenced to the same potential.
- To this end, the main subject of the invention is a controller for three-phase asynchronous electric motor or for chopper for universal motor, comprising power units such as triacs or relays, for controlling loads, characterized in that the power units other than the relays are controlled via an insulation means, by at least one microcontroller acting as electronic programmer and, via a control, the motor control function, said microcontroller being referenced to the “zero” potential of a rectification and filtering block supplying power to the motor.
- Thus, the inventive idea is to shift the optical insulation of the “programmer—motor” controln communication to the load control triacs, and to reference the two functions to the “zero” potential of the diode bridge of the rectification block.
- The insulation means can be an optical means of the optotriac or optocoupler type, or even an electromagnetic means of the relay or transformer type. In the case of the optocouplers, it is essential to provide an insulated power supply for the triac control power.
- The low voltage power needed for the microcontrollers can be supplied by one and the same power supply.
- The microcontroller power supply can thus be very simple and also power a user interface card.
- Overall, the solution provided by the present invention proposes a simple and cost-effective device for controlling motors, in particular three-phase asynchronous motor, which represents a considerable asset in an industrial and commercial context where there is a need for rapid adaptation to new requirements.
- The invention will be better understood from the description that follows, given with reference to the appended schematic diagram representing, by way of example, one embodiment of this electric motor controller.
-
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a current solution, with electrical insulation at communication level; -
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the solution that is the subject of the present invention, with optically insulated load control; -
FIG. 3 is a partial schematic view of an exemplary embodiment of the invention applied to a washing machine. -
FIG. 1 illustrates the state of the art explained above. It represents a three-phase asynchronous electric motor 1 and its controller, and power units 2, such as triacs or relays, for load control. The power units 2 are controlled by a first microcontroller 4 forming an electronic programmer. Asecond microcontroller 5 handles control of the motor 1 via acontrol 6. A low voltage power supply 9 powers the first microcontroller 4, thesecond microcontroller 5 being powered by a separate power supply. - Optocouplers 3 in this case insulate the communication between the first microcontroller 4 referenced to the neutral potential and the
second microcontroller 5 referenced to the “zero” potential of a rectification and filtering block 7 which powers the motor 1 via aninverter 8. -
FIG. 2 , in which the elements that correspond to those described previously are denoted by the same numeric references, indicates the principle of the solution proposed by the present invention. - This figure again represents a three-phase asynchronous electric motor 1, and its controller, and power units 2, such as triacs 2 a or relays 2 b, for load control. Among these power units 2, the triace 2 a are controlled by the first microcontroller 4, constituting an electronic programmer, via an optotriac 13; the relays 2 b, insulated by themselves, are directly controlled by the first microcontroller 4. A
second microcontroller 5 controls the motor 1 via acontrol 6. - The two
microcontrollers 4 and 5 are referenced to the “zero” potential of a rectification and filtering block 7 which powers the motor 1 via aninverter 8. - The low voltage power needed for the two
microcontrollers 4 and 5 is supplied by one and the same low voltage power supply 9, which also powers a user interface card (not shown). -
FIG. 3 is a partial diagrammatic view of an exemplary embodiment applied to a washing machine, to control an electric motor 1 driving the drum of this washing machine rotation-wise. - This figure represents four load control assemblies 2 a, 2 b, 2 c and 2 d made up of triacs, for the hot water 10 a and
cold water 10 b solenoid valves, a drain pump 10 c and aproduct dispenser 10 d. Each load control assembly is insulated by anoptotriac - It should be noted that, in the case of low loads, in the order of 100 mA, it is possible to use the
optotriac - The more sophisticated the washing machine is, the greater the number there are of triacs, for example for the drain pump, the recirculation pump, for the prewash, wash solenoid valves, for the door interlock, and so on, which means that the cost overhead due to the optical insulation is a function only of the required options and will be proportional to the range level of the machine.
- There will be no departure from the framework of the invention, as defined in the appended claims:
-
- by combining the motor and programmer control functions on a single microcontroller;
- by using all types of electronic components to produce the functions of the device;
- by applying the device to the programmed control of electric motors of all types, in particular for a universal motor chopper;
- by designing the device for other domestic electrical appliances with electric motors, such as dishwashers, tumble driers, refrigerators, freezers, etc.
