Description

Convertor device
The application is based on the PCT/JP2003/003134 (China national application number 03811292.2) that proposed on March 17th, 2003 and applies for dividing an application of (convertor device), below quotes its content.
Invention field
The present invention relates to differentiate the convertor device in the life-span of the electrolytic capacitor that uses in the convertor device.
Background technology
As everyone knows, use electrolytic capacitor in the main circuit smooth of voltage source converter device, but owing to this electrolytic capacitor life-span is limited, in general, if behind the certain hour of convertor device through design, just be considered as the life-span of electrolytic capacitor, need to change electrolytic capacitor.Yet, change because life-span of electrolytic capacitor produces significantly with the environment for use of converter device, therefore following situation is arranged sometimes, promptly passed through the certain hour of design, though electrolytic capacitor also do not worsen, will its replacing; On the contrary, though electrolytic capacitor worsen owing to also do not have certain hour through design, thus do not thought electrolytic capacitor life-span and do not change.
Disclose a kind of convertor device in the patent documentation 1 (spy opens flat 11-98854 communique), can differentiate the life-span of the electrolytic capacitor that uses in the convertor device.The convertor device that electrolytic capacitor is used for the main circuit smooth of record comprises electrolytic capacitor life-span judgement unit in the patent documentation 1, and this electrolytic capacitor life-span judgement unit is by constituting with the lower part: the discharge resistance that is connected in parallel with electrolytic capacitor; Monitor the current detection section of the both end voltage of electrolytic capacitor; With the judgement part, interrupting when the voltage of electrolytic capacitor is supplied with, measurement is by the discharge time constant t (t=CR) of discharge with the electrostatic capacitance C decision of resistance R and electrolytic capacitor, when the electrostatic capacitance of being calculated by this measured value exceeds in advance the tolerance band of electrostatic capacitance of this electrolytic capacitor of obtaining as benchmark, judge that then this electrolytic capacitor is to the life-span.
The capacitor life-span diagnostic device that it is target that patent documentation 2 (spy opens flat 11-231008 communique) discloses with accurate diagnosis life of capacitors.In patent documentation 2, supply voltage insert or apply after stopping at least one constantly, the both end voltage of multi-point sampling capacitor, when each sampled voltage is obtained time constant T, according to the T/R formula, for example be connected with capacitor in the switching power unit by known resistance value, prevent the resistance R of the resistance of inrush current, the capacitor C 0 of capacitor is obtained in computing, variation ± Δ R of the resistance R of the resistance that causes with respect to the variation of having considered environment temperature, the capacitor of the capacitance variations of capacitor+Δ C the poorest capacitor C r=T/ (R ± Δ R)+Δ C in theory, when the capacitor C 0 of judging capacitor is equal to or less than this capacitor C r, then is judged as capacitor and electric capacity has occurred and reduce.
In the disclosed main circuit power charging method of patent documentation 3 (spy opens flat 11-89264 communique), the special-purpose discharge circuit that does not use discharge to constitute with resistance is disclosed, but utilize the closed circuit current direction motor of forming with motor that makes, thereby the technology that the charging residual voltage of capacitor is discharged as load loss.In patent documentation 3, when the direct-current input power supplying to main circuit is disconnected, to control from motor driven control transfer and be discharge mode, utilization is closed circuit with the motor composition, make the current direction motor, thereby the charging voltage of capacitor is consumed discharge as load loss or as the torque energy that makes motor and load operation.
In above-mentioned patent documentation 1 or patent documentation 2, there are the following problems, promptly because of in the life-span projection of electrolytic capacitor, having used resistance (to be discharge resistance in the patent documentation 1, in the patent documentation 2 resistance that prevents inrush current), so when making the resistance value change owing to the variations in temperature around the resistance, measuring in the life-span projection of the electrolytic capacitor that carries out, be difficult to guarantee precision by time constant.
In addition, there are the following problems, if the thermal capacitance of the resistance that uses in the discharge of electrolytic capacitor is reduced, then resistance value becomes big, and the capacitor output current reduces, so mensuration that can prolong discharge time, on the contrary, if reduce resistance value, then because the power of resistance consumption becomes big to shorten the minute of discharge time, thereby the big resistance of thermal capacitance need be set, so the convertor device size will become big.
In addition, even if there are the following problems, because the resistance and the electrolytic capacitor that use in the discharge of electrolytic capacitor are adjacent, so the caloric value in the scope of application of resistance, also can make the electrolytic capacitor body temperature rise, this will become the reason of the electrostatic capacitance change that makes electrolytic capacitor.
The present invention proposes in order to address the above problem, the convertor device in purpose is life-span of obtaining judging accurately electrolytic capacitor, can accurately judge electrolytic capacitor replacing period.

The structure and the processing of the convertor device of embodiment of the present invention 4 are described according to Fig. 6.Among Fig. 6,5,6c, 8,11a, 13 identical with Fig. 3, omit its explanation.Between the side switch element of inverter main circuit 7d and the electrolytic capacitor 5 current detector 12d is set.
In addition, electrolytic capacitor electrostatic capacitance calculator 10d flows out electric current I c according to Ton turn-on time of the side switch element of the switch element of a specific phase of carrying out the on/off action, the both end voltage amount of pressure drop Δ V and the electrolytic capacitor of electrolytic capacitor 5, calculates the electrostatic capacitance C of electrolytic capacitor 5.
According to Fig. 6, the processing of calculating the electrostatic capacitance of electrolytic capacitor in the convertor device of 7 explanation embodiments of the present invention 4.
When source power supply interrupts, make the switch element of inverter main circuit 7d carry out above-mentioned on/off action, electrolytic capacitor 5 begins discharge.
Fig. 7 is illustrated in and makes V mutually and mutually side switch element normal off of W, make side switch element normal open, only the switch element of U phase carried out under the situation that on/off moves, the side switch element switches of U phase, the electrolytic capacitor when the side switch element disconnects flow out the path of electric current I c, press side switch element → motor 8 → V of electrolytic capacitor 5 → U phase, the side switch element of W phase (to V mutually with W mutually equalization flow through) → path flow of electrolytic capacitor 5.Here, be Iu when electrolytic capacitor flows out electric current I c at the electric current that flows to the U phase, the electric current that flows to the V phase is Iv, when the electric current that flows to the W phase is Iw, be Ic=Iu=Iv+Iw.
Electrolytic capacitor electrostatic capacitance calculator 10d flows out electric current I c with the detected electrolytic capacitor of current detector 12d and multiplies each other and integration with discharge time (=basis is from Ton turn-on time that goes code and obtain of ON-OFF control circuit 6c to U side switch element output mutually).In addition, electrolytic capacitor electrostatic capacitance calculator 10d utilizes formula (7), flow out electric current I c according to Ton turn-on time of the side switch element of the switch element of a specific phase of carrying out on/off action, the both end voltage amount of pressure drop Δ V and the electrolytic capacitor of electrolytic capacitor 5, calculate the electrostatic capacitance C of electrolytic capacitor 5.
Electrostatic capacitance C=∫ (Ic * Ton)/Δ V .... (7)
