Embodiment
Consult Fig. 2, disclose the composition schematic diagram of fan system of the present invention.Wherein this fan system 3 mainly is made up of one drive circuit 40, a protective circuit 50, at least one protection assembly 60 and at least one fan 70; One end of this drive circuit 40 is electrically connected at a power supply unit 2; and it is made up of a switch module 41 and a driven unit 42; this protective circuit 50 is electrically connected between the other end and those protection assemblies 60 of this drive circuit 40; those protection assemblies 60 electrically are connected in series accordingly with those fans 70; and those protection assemblies 60 a wherein end are electrically connected to this protective circuit 50 jointly, use to make each protection assembly 60 fan 70 corresponding with it form an individual path independently.
This switch module 41 is electrically connected between this power supply unit 2 and this protective circuit 50 in this drive circuit 40; this driven unit 42 then is electrically connected between this power supply unit 2 and this switch module 41; the unlatching of this this switch module 41 of driven unit 42 may command or close; when this switch module 41 is opened; the power supply that this power supply unit 2 is produced can input to this protective circuit 50; this protective circuit 50 mainly has the function of storage power; and produce under the short circuit condition in arbitrary individual path; this protective circuit 50 exportable one is greater than the function of those protection assembly 60 cut-off currents (promptly can bear lowest high-current value); under normal conditions; 50 of this protective circuits are in order to the electric charge of this power supply that can store this power supply unit 2 and produced; export this electric current and voltage when complete again to those protection assembly 60 and those fans 70 and wait to store, to make those fans 70 runnings.
Please consult shown in Figure 3ly again, in present embodiment, this protective circuit 50 is by several capacitors C 2Be formed in parallel; and therefore forming one has the protective circuit 50 of big capacitance; thus; when arbitrary individual path produces short circuit condition; because the impedance minimum of short circuit paths, so the electric current that this protective circuit 50 is exported almost all flows to this short circuit paths, and because the characteristic of the big electric current that big capacitance is produced; event can force this protection assembly 60 to blow or lose efficacy, and makes the fan 70 of this individual path shut down.
It should be noted that; opening circuit of this short circuit paths; do not cause other individual path to be affected; therefore the output current of this protective circuit 50 can continue to distribute to other individual path to make those fan 70 runnings; unlikely so the disappearance of the radiating effect of this fan system 3; one unlikely this drive circuit 40 that makes is worked as machine because of the unusual of electric current, and two more effectively keep the running smoothness of these fan system 3 integral body.
In addition, the present invention is by the characteristic that makes this short circuit paths open circuit immediately, on reaction speed faster than detection reaction time of a current sensing means (not shown) set in this driven unit 42, can not close even can guarantee this driven unit 42 thus, and make back those fans 70 of level that the effect of heat radiation can't be provided again because of this switch module 41 of arbitrary individual path short circuit.
Please consult shown in Figure 4ly again, this drive circuit 40 can add the hardware framework to constitute by software in this fan system 3 of the present invention.Wherein this switch module 41 is a transistor Q 1, particularly be embodied as a N-channel MOS FET; And this driven unit 42 mainly includes an integrated circuit die I C, and this integrated circuit die I C can receive this power supply that this power supply unit 2 is produced, use control this switch module 41 unlatching or close.
Please consult shown in Figure 5ly again, this drive circuit 40 can be embodied as a soft active circuit in this fan system 3 of the present invention.Wherein this switch module 41 is a transistor Q 2, be embodied as a P channel mosfet at this; This driven unit 42 then mainly is by resistor R 1~R 5, diode D 1~D 4, transistor Q 3, capacitor C 3Constitute etc. main passive component, this driven unit 42 receives this power supply that these power supply units 2 are produced and makes this transistor Q 3During unlatching, i.e. this transistor of may command Q 2Open.
In sum; because of complying with a kind of fan system of the present invention and guard method thereof; this fan system can produce under the short circuit condition in arbitrary individual path; by this protective circuit to force this protection assembly and blow or to lose efficacy; and the guard method of this fan system; comprised the protective circuit of selecting exportable electric current greater than this protection assembly cut-off current for use; so can be when arbitrary individual path short circuit; should protect assembly to blow immediately or lost efficacy; and the unlikely normal operation that influences other individual path of the individual path that makes this generation short circuit condition, and further guarantee the heat radiation function of this fan system.
The above only is exemplary, but not is restrictive.Anyly do not break away from spirit of the present invention and category, and, all should be contained in the appending claims its equivalent modifications of carrying out or change.
