Background technology
Frequency-converter device is the power inverter of the three-phase alternating current of a kind of electric power with assigned frequency impulse form of being converted to optional frequency.Frequency-converter device is because having the advantages such as energy-conservation and easy control output, so through being usually used in driving the motor that is widely used in the electric products such as washing machine, refrigerator, air-conditioning.
Usually, correctly control motor in order to utilize above-mentioned frequency-converter device, adopt following method: detect and put on the phase current of motor, and according to the phase current that detects, control the electric current that puts on motor by pulse width modulation (PWM) mode.
When detecting the phase current of motor, usually adopt Hall current sensor (Hall CT).The waveform of each the phase phase current that detects by Hall current sensor at this moment, is shown in the (a) and (b) of Fig. 9, (c).In Fig. 9, be the current waveform that utilizes the W phase that Hall current sensor detects (a), (b) be the current waveform of V phase, (c) be the current waveform of U phase.Shown in the (a) and (b) of Fig. 9, (c), although the waveform of the phase current of each phase that detects by Hall current sensor comprises a small amount of high-frequency harmonic, roughly be sinusoidal wave form.
With regard to general universal frequency converter device, all has the circuit overcurrent protection for the protection of frequency-converter device.Fig. 1 shows the decision circuitry in the circuit overcurrent protection of existing frequency-converter device.In the decision circuitry of Fig. 1, amplify by the phase current of operational amplifier to the sine wave of each phase of being detected by above-mentioned Hall current sensor, and calculate the phase current sum of each phase after the amplification, this phase current sum that then will calculate compares with the reference current value that predetermines, and judges whether overcurrent has occured in frequency-converter device.Under the phase current sum is situation more than the reference current value, reduce the output frequency of frequency-converter device or disconnect all switch elements, flow and initiating failure in frequency-converter device to avoid excessive electric current, thus the protection frequency-converter device.
But, with regard to cheapness, low capacity frequency-converter device, do not adopt the aforesaid method that detects phase current by Hall current sensor, and adopt following phase current detection method: the bottom brachium pontis at each brachium pontis (Leg) of this frequency-converter device arranges arm resistance (shunt resistance), utilizes the both end voltage of this arm resistance to detect phase current.This is because it is not only cheap to utilize arm resistance to detect the method for phase current, and the parts of the method take up space also little much than Hall current sensor, so has lot of advantages aspect mechanism design.
Utilize the waveform of the electric current that flows through each arm resistance R1, R2, R3 that arm resistance detects shown in (d), (e) of Fig. 9, (f).(d) of Fig. 9 is the waveform of the electric current among the arm resistance R3 that flows through on the bottom brachium pontis that is arranged on the brachium pontis that is connected with the W phase phase line of frequency-converter device, (e) being the waveform of the electric current among the arm resistance R2 that flows through on the bottom brachium pontis that is arranged on the brachium pontis that is connected with the V phase phase line of frequency-converter device, (f) is the waveform of the electric current among the arm resistance R1 that flows through on the bottom brachium pontis that is arranged on the brachium pontis that is connected with the U phase phase line of frequency-converter device.Shown in (d), (e) of Fig. 9, (f), the electric current that flows through each arm resistance R1, R2, R3 has interrupted waveform, therefore according to the phase angle of output waveform, can be difficult to detect the interval of electric current, and, the form of the phase current of each phase that calculates according to such electric current that flows through each arm resistance also has interrupted waveform, also can not have sinusoidal wave form as the phase current that detects by Hall current sensor.
About utilizing arm resistance to detect method and the interrupted concrete reason of waveform of such electric current, the later on again narration of the phase current of each phase.
The degree that such current waveform is interrupted can become more serious along with the increase (along with pulse duration becomes large) of the operating frequency in the V/F running.If operating frequency becomes more than the assigned frequency (being generally rated frequency), then under extreme situation, also might can't detect electric current by arm resistance.Under such operating condition, the two ends of arm resistance do not produce voltage, therefore can't detect phase current.
Under these circumstances, certainly can calculate by the electric current that the arm resistance on other brachium pontis is flow through in detection the phase current of this phase.But, calculate electric current by software, then need the regular hour, this can make as to operate time sensitivity the circuit overcurrent protection of protective circuit can't give full play to defencive function.Its result, the problem that can cause the stability of whole system to reduce.
That is, if the phase current that will detect by the phase current detection method that utilizes arm resistance is directed into the decision circuitry of existing circuit overcurrent protection as shown in Figure 1, then the actual time that can detect electric current can be restricted according to the polarity of electric current.Therefore, constant although the grade that overcurrent suppresses is not subjected to the impact of polarity of electric current, when the detection error because of electric current was judged as overcurrent, the asymmetric situation of electric current can occur.

Below, with reference to accompanying drawing, specific embodiments of the invention are elaborated.
Fig. 2 is the structure chart of the frequency-converter device with excess current protective function of one embodiment of the invention.
As shown in Figure 2, the frequency-converter device with excess current protective function of one embodiment of the invention, on the basis of common converter circuit, also comprise phase current test section 7 and be arranged at phase current test section 7 and control part 6 between over-current judging section 8.Wherein, common converter circuit comprises: rectification part 2, industrial power 1 is carried out the rectification line output of going forward side by side; Frequency conversion section 3 will convert the three-phase alternating voltage (U, V, W) of the pulse mode with optional frequency to and supply with efferent 4 from the direct voltage of above-mentioned rectification part 2 outputs by pulse width modulation (PWM), thus the drive motor even load; Modulation portion 5 receives that carrier wave (switch) the signal Uc input and input signal Ur generate the pwm signal pattern and to 3 outputs of above-mentioned frequency conversion section, thereby drives above-mentioned frequency conversion section 3; Control part 6 by inputing to modulation portion 5 for carrier signal Uc and input signal Ur that the pwm signal pattern occurs, is controlled the action of frequency conversion section 3.
Above-mentioned rectification part 2 can comprise: diode sequence 21, the alternating current (R, S, T) of industrial power 1 is carried out rectification; Smmothing capacitor 22 carries out smoothing processing to the voltage from 21 outputs of diode sequence; Charging circuit 23 prevents from producing excessive inrush current when smmothing capacitor 22 is carried out initial charge; When braking circuit 24, motor are brought back to life (produce power) in operation process, prevent that the voltage of smmothing capacitor 22 from excessively rising.
Above-mentioned frequency conversion section 3 is common switching circuit, each brachium pontis of above-mentioned frequency conversion section 3 is connected with each phase line of load (for example being motor) respectively, arbitrary brachium pontis in each brachium pontis like this, the connected node that this brachium pontis is connected with the phase line of load by this brachium pontis is divided into top brachium pontis and bottom brachium pontis, be respectively equipped with for the switch element that comes this brachium pontis of on/off according to the said PWM signal pattern at above-mentioned top brachium pontis and bottom brachium pontis, the above-mentioned frequency conversion section 3 PWM switch element sequence by being consisted of by so a plurality of switch elements, direct voltage is converted to three-phase alternating voltage (U, V, W), and with this three-phase alternating voltage supply with the motor even load.
Usually, with be located in two switch elements on each brachium pontis some connections then the mode of another disconnection frequency conversion section 3 is controlled, therefore, when all on off states of expression frequency conversion section 3, usually utilize switch element VT1, the VT3 on the brachium pontis of top, the state of VT5 to represent.
Above-mentioned control part 6 is controlled the action of frequency conversion section 3 by existing pulse width modulation (PWM) mode.In order to control the speed of motor, with the expectation input signal Ur(of each phase usually the phase difference of the input signal of each phase be 120 degree) and the expectation carrier signal Uc(that produces of clock generator (not shown) by switching frequency each can share between mutually) input to modulation portion 5, wherein, this expectation carrier signal Uc refers to, the reference waveform that the maximum level of the input signal Ur of each phase of peakedness ratio is larger (triangular wave or sawtooth waveforms).
In modulation portion 5, come this carrier signal Uc is compared with each input signal Ur mutually by comparator, forming the PWM modulation is the pwm signal pattern with waveform.
Fig. 7 is the figure that schematically shows the relation between the maximum current upstroke slope of pwm signal pattern, input signal, carrier signal and phase current of common frequency-converter device.
Their resulting PWM modulation of carrier signal Uc and input signal Ur and comparison with impulse waveform as shown in Figure 7.With regard to any of upper switches element VT1, VT3, VT5, at the input signal of the phase of answering with this upper switches elements relative during greater than carrier signal, the pwm signal pattern becomes " H ", less than carrier signal the time, the pwm signal pattern becomes " L " (with reference to the pwm signal pattern of the VT1 among Fig. 7).Its result, the pwm signal pattern forms the impulse waveform that the on/off ratio is directly proportional with input signal.
Above-mentioned phase current test section 7 comprises: 3 arm resistance R1, R2, R3 are separately positioned on the bottom brachium pontis of each brachium pontis of frequency conversion section 3; Current detecting part 71 detects the voltage at each arm resistance R1, R2, R3 two ends, and exports the phase current of each phase according to the voltage detecting result.
Fig. 3 utilizes the phase current test section of one embodiment of the invention to detect the figure of method of the phase current of each phase for explanation, wherein simply shows each switch element VT1~VT6, and is connected with three-phase alternating-current motor at efferent 4.
Below, with reference to Fig. 3, above-mentioned phase current test section 7 and the method that detects the phase current of each phase by this phase current test section 7 are elaborated.
Above-mentioned current detecting part 71 comprises: current detector 71A, 71B, 71C, detection is separately positioned on the voltage at the two ends of 3 arm resistance R1, R2 on the bottom brachium pontis of each brachium pontis of frequency conversion section 3, R3, and Flow is crossed the electric current of each arm resistance R1, R2, R3 thus; Phase current operational part 711 according to the current value that current detector 71A, 71B, 71C calculate, calculates and exports phase current iu, iv, the iw of each phase. Current detector 71A, 71B, 71C can use integrated operational amplifier (integratedoperational amplifier).
On the other hand, can be illustrated by following formula to each arm resistance R1, R2 of phase current test section 7, the voltage that the two ends of R3 apply.
u=i×R+l×di/dt
Wherein, u is the voltage at arm resistance two ends, and i is the electric current that flows through arm resistance, and l is the stray inductance of arm resistance, and di/dt is the differential value of electric current for the time.
Can find out from above-mentioned formula, in order to ensure the correctness of Current calculation, preferably should eliminate as much as possible the impact that the stray inductance of arm resistance is brought to voltage.Therefore, preferably adopt noninductive resistance.
And as mentioned above, the frequency-converter device of one embodiment of the invention utilizes pulse width modulation (PWM) to control the action of 6 switch elements.And, to be located at the some connections mode of another disconnection then in two switch elements on each brachium pontis, the switch element of frequency conversion section 3 is controlled, usually, be shown as 1 or 0 by the state with upper switches element VT1, VT3, VT5, represent the open/close state of all switch elements.At this moment, 1 expression switch connection and the state of switching on, the state that 0 expression switch disconnects.
In situation about controlling in such pulse width modulation (PWM) mode, the switch element of frequency conversion section 3 is in a certain state in 6 kinds of on off states corresponding with the combination of the on/off of each switch element VT1~VT6.Modulation portion 5 is controlled each switch element by corresponding with above-mentioned 6 on off states respectively pwm signal pattern occurs.
Fig. 4 is the space vector of voltage figure when using the frequency-converter device of one embodiment of the invention, and " 100 "~" 101 " that mark on hexagonal each summit correspond respectively to the on/off state of each upper switches element VT1, VT3, VT5.And, the on/off state of lower switches element VT4, VT6, VT2 respectively with the on/off opposite states of upper switches element VT1, VT3, VT5.
Situation when Fig. 3 shows space vector of voltage and is arranged in the first sector of space vector of voltage figure shown in Figure 4.
With reference to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, the phase current values that will flow through each phase line of three-phase alternating-current motor is made as respectively iu, iv, iw, to be made as iu_ad, iv_ad, iw_ad from the current value of each current detector 71A, 71B, 71C output, to be made as to the sense of current that three-phase alternating-current motor flows into "+" direction, to be made as from the sense of current that three-phase alternating-current motor flows out "-" direction, so, as shown in table 1 below corresponding to the current value that flows through each arm resistance under the on off state of each sector and the relational expression between each phase current.
Therefore in addition, in the situation that three-phase alternating-current motor does not break down, the load on each phase line symmetrical (that is, each phase load value is identical) under on off state is 110,101 and 011 situation, also can calculate the phase current of each phase.For example, be in 110 the situation on off state, since symmetrical in each load of going up mutually, relational expression iu=iv=iw/2=iw_ad/2 therefore set up.Similarly, be in 101,011 the situation, also can draw relational expression as shown in table 1 below on off state.
Table 1
Namely, in above-mentioned phase current test section, the voltage that current detector 71A, 71B, 71C detect the two ends of each arm resistance R1, R2, R3 calculates the current value that flows through each arm resistance R1, R2, R3, phase current operational part 711 utilizes each relational expression shown in the above-mentioned table 1, calculates and export the instant value of the phase current of each phase according to the current value from current detector 71A, 71B, 71C output.
But as shown in Figure 9, the electric current that flows through each arm resistance has interrupted waveform, and at this moment, the output current of phase current test section 7 also has interrupted waveform.
Fig. 5 is the figure for the interrupted reason of the waveform of the output current phase of the phase current test section of the frequency-converter device of explanation one embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 6 is the figure for the interrupted reason of the waveform of the output current phase of the phase current test section of the frequency-converter device of explanation one embodiment of the invention.
Below, with reference to Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, the interrupted concrete reason of waveform of the output current phase of the phase current test section of the frequency-converter device of one embodiment of the invention is described.
The interrupted concrete reason of the waveform of the output current phase of phase current test section 7 is, as shown in Figure 5, if upper switches element VT1 keeps on-state, then as mentioned above, the lower switches element VT4 corresponding with upper switches element VT1 is in off-state, so electric current does not flow through arm resistance R1, the voltage at the two ends of arm resistance R1 becomes 0, therefore can't detect voltage.As shown in Figure 6, only be switched on and electric current when flowing through arm resistance R1 at lower switches element VT4, just can detect the electric current that flows through arm resistance R1.Because such reason, the electric current that flows through arm resistance that current detector 71A detects has interrupted form.
Such as Fig. 7 diagram, along with the variation that the phase place of input signal Ur is namely exported the phase place of phase voltage, can there be the interval elongated zone of conducting of upper switches element VT1.If the conducting interval of upper switches element VT1 is elongated, then the ON time of lower switches element VT4 shortens, so the time that electric current flows through arm resistance shortens.At this moment, as shown in Figure 9, the waveform that flows through the electric current of each arm resistance is the form of discontinuous sine wave.Therefore, the form of the phase current of each phase that calculates according to such electric current that flows through each arm resistance also has interrupted waveform, and has sinusoidal wave form unlike the phase current that is detected by Hall current sensor.
The degree that such current waveform is interrupted can become more serious along with the increase (along with pulse duration becomes large) of the operating frequency in the V/F running.In other words, if the raising operating frequency, then the turn-on time of upper switches element VT1 is elongated, relative therewith, can shorten the turn-on time of lower switches element VT4, so the interrupted degree of the waveform of the phase current that phase current test section 7 is exported can become more obvious.
If operating frequency is more than the assigned frequency (being generally rated frequency), then in extreme situation, may there be the interval of lower switches element VT4 connection, thereby can't detects the electric current that flows through arm resistance.Under these circumstances, do not produce voltage at the two ends of arm resistance, therefore can't detect phase current.
Under these circumstances, certainly can calculate by the electric current that the arm resistance on other brachium pontis is flow through in detection the phase current of this phase of current switch periods.But; to calculate electric current by software; then need the regular hour, thus if the phase current of each phase that will obtain like this is directed in the existing circuit overcurrent protection, then as to operate time sensitivity the circuit overcurrent protection of protective circuit can't give full play to defencive function.
Therefore, such as Fig. 2 diagram, the over-current judging section 8 of present embodiment comprises: phase current A/D converter section 81, carry out the A/D conversion to the phase current values that receives from phase current test section 7; Prospective current operational part 82 will be based on the phase current of the current switch periods of the switch motion of pwm signal pattern as benchmark, prediction and calculation after switch periods in the prospective current value that may occur; Comparing section 83, prospective current value and predefined overcurrent fiducial value that prospective current operational part 82 is calculated compare, and export the result of this comparison to control part 6.
When the prospective current value is that the overcurrent fiducial value is when above; control part 6 is judged as frequency-converter device the output overcurrent has occured; reduce the output frequency of frequency-converter device or disconnect all switch elements; avoiding excessive electric current in frequency-converter device, to flow and initiating failure, thus the protection frequency-converter device.
When selected above-mentioned overcurrent fiducial value, calculate the overcurrent fiducial value according to the capacity of frequency-converter device take the rated current of frequency-converter device as benchmark.Usually, with 2~3 times value of the rated current of frequency-converter device as the overcurrent fiducial value.But, this overcurrent fiducial value is not limited to aforesaid benchmark, and according to the difference of frequency-converter device producer and difference, and so long as in the overload running (usually, the value that frequency-converter device is destroyed 150%, one minute kind of output-current rating) gets final product.Selected overcurrent fiducial value inputs to comparing section 83 by not shown input part.
The method of prospective current operational part 82 prediction and calculation prospective current values is as follows.
Fig. 7 shows turn-on time of lower switches element VT4 and situation about shortening and electric current form of under these circumstances phase current iu elongated along with the turn-on time of upper switches element VT1.With reference to Fig. 7, prospective current operational part 82 is according to the phase current values of the first switch periods of being changed by phase current A/D converter section 81A/D, next switch periods that always calculated in advance is adjacent with the first switch periods is the Current rise value based on maximum current upstroke slope slope in second switch cycle, and calculates the phase current values in second switch cycle according to this Current rise value.
The calculating of maximum current upstroke slope can be adopted following several method.
For example, so long as those skilled in the art are clear, if the inductance value Ls of known electric motor and the voltage Vs that puts on motor then can calculate maximum current upstroke slope slope between the adjacent switch periods by following formula.
slope=Δiu/Ts=(iu2-iu1)/Ts=Vs/Ls
