An embodiment of the present application provides an air conditioner, as shown in fig. 1, including:
an outdoor unit 101, wherein a compressor is provided in the outdoor unit 101;
an indoor unit 102, wherein the indoor unit 102 is provided with an indoor fan;
further comprises:
the power supply module 103, as shown in fig. 2, comprises a direct current bus, wherein the direct current bus is not connected with an electrolytic capacitor for smoothing the bus voltage, the power supply module 103 further comprises a brake protection circuit, the brake protection circuit comprises a driving chip (i.e. a driving IC), a power switch tube and a power resistor, the driving chip is connected with the power switch tube, and the power switch tube and the power resistor are connected in series between the positive pole and the negative pole of the direct current bus;
a controller 104 (i.e., MCU) connected to the driving chip and configured to:
if the voltage value of the direct current bus is detected to be larger than a first preset voltage value and not larger than a second preset voltage value, an opening instruction is sent to the driving chip so that the driving chip controls the power switch tube to be conducted;
if the power switch tube is in a conducting state and the voltage value is detected to be reduced to be not more than the first preset voltage value, a closing instruction is sent to the driving chip, so that the driving chip controls the power switch tube to be closed;
the first preset voltage value is the highest value of the bus voltage in a preset fluctuation range.
The national power grid can generate 10% fluctuation of the regulated power supply voltage, so that the air conditioner can be ensured to normally operate in the range, and an accurate range is determined in advance through the operation of all working conditions and all loads, wherein the factors such as reliability, measurement error, reaction time lag, transmission time and the like need to be considered. After the normal working range is determined, the bus voltage is set to be the first preset voltage value under the normal condition.
The controller detects the voltage value of the direct current bus in real time, optionally based on a special voltage division detection circuit or based on a voltage transformer.
If the voltage value of the direct current bus is detected to be larger than the first preset voltage value and not larger than the second preset voltage value, the bus voltage is increased but the amplitude and the energy are not large under the condition, so that the direct current bus can be processed by adopting a brake protection circuit, and an opening instruction is sent to the driving chip so that the driving chip can control the power switch tube to be conducted. Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the driving chip controls the power switch tube to be turned on, because the power resistor and the power switch tube are directly connected in series between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the direct current bus, the power switch tube has almost no resistance value after being turned on, which is equivalent to instantly turning on the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the bus through the power resistor, thereby rapidly releasing the energy for pushing up the voltage of the direct current bus to rise in the form of heat energy of the power resistor, reducing the voltage of the direct current bus, and optionally, the continuous working time of the power resistor is longer than a preset threshold value.
If the power switch tube is in a conducting state and the voltage value is detected to be not more than the first preset voltage value, the voltage value of the direct current bus is indicated to be recovered to be normal under the action of the brake protection circuit, and the controller sends a closing instruction to the driving chip so that the driving chip controls the power switch tube to be closed, the brake protection circuit is closed, the power resistor is powered off, and the direct current bus is recovered to be in a normal state.

To further ensure the reliability of the dc bus, in some embodiments of the application, the controller is further configured to:
after a closing instruction is sent to the driving chip, if the voltage value is larger than the first preset voltage value and not larger than the second preset voltage value, the opening instruction is sent to the driving chip, so that the driving chip controls the power switch tube to be conducted.
In this embodiment, after a closing instruction is sent to the driving chip to stop the operation of the brake protection circuit, if the voltage value of the dc bus is increased to be greater than the first preset voltage value and not greater than the second preset voltage value, the brake protection circuit may be turned on again, and the opening instruction is sent to the driving chip, so that the driving chip controls the power switch to be turned on, so that the brake protection circuit may be operated for multiple times, the dc bus voltage may be restored to be normal without affecting the normal operation of the air conditioner, optionally, the number of times of operation of the brake protection circuit within a preset time period may be recorded, after the number of times reaches a specified number, an abnormality that the circuit cannot recover from exists may be described, and an alarm message may be sent to prompt a maintainer to process in time.
To further improve the reliability of the dc bus, in some embodiments of the application, the controller is further configured to:
and if the voltage value is detected to be larger than the second preset voltage value and not larger than the third preset voltage value, controlling the outdoor unit to stop and keeping the indoor fan to run until the first preset time is reached, and restarting the outdoor unit.
In this embodiment, if the voltage value is detected to be greater than the second preset voltage value and not greater than the third preset voltage value, it is indicated that the dc bus voltage is higher and the rising time is faster, the energy is larger, and the processing cannot be performed through the brake protection circuit, at this time, the outdoor unit is controlled to stop and keep operating until reaching the first preset time, and then the outdoor unit is restarted, specifically, the outdoor unit includes a compressor, and the outdoor unit is controlled to stop and equivalent to disconnect a part of the load on the dc bus, such as a compressor variable frequency power supply, so that the dc bus voltage can be reduced, in order not to affect the use of the user, the indoor fan is kept to continue operating, and the outdoor unit is restarted after reaching the first preset time, so that the air conditioner resumes normal operation, and by temporarily stopping only the outdoor unit, the user experience is not affected while the bus voltage is reduced.
To further improve the reliability of the dc bus, in some embodiments of the application, the controller is further configured to:
if the voltage value is detected to be larger than the second preset voltage value and not larger than the third preset voltage value after restarting the outdoor unit, controlling the outdoor unit to stop and keep the indoor fan running until the first preset time is reached, restarting the outdoor unit, and adding one to the retry number;
and if the retry times reach the preset times within the second preset time, stopping the indoor unit and the outdoor unit, and sending out stop alarm information.
Specifically, if the voltage value is greater than the second preset voltage value and not greater than the third preset voltage value, after the outdoor unit is controlled to stop for a first preset time period and restart the outdoor unit, the voltage value of the direct current bus is increased to be greater than the second preset voltage value and not greater than the third preset voltage value, the outdoor unit can be controlled to stop again and keep the indoor fan running, the outdoor unit is restarted until the first preset time period is reached, the retry number is increased by one, and if the retry number reaches the preset number in the second preset time period, for example, three times, the problem is that other reasons cause abnormal need to alert and prompt a professional to maintain, so as to protect the safety of air conditioning equipment, the indoor unit and the outdoor unit are stopped, and stop alarm information is sent out.
In order to ensure the safety of the direct current bus, in some embodiments of the present application, the direct current bus is further connected with a protection element in series, and the controller is further configured to:
and if the voltage value is detected to be larger than the third preset voltage value and the protection element is triggered to be disconnected, sending out shutdown alarm information.
In this embodiment, if it is detected that the voltage value is greater than the third preset voltage value, the bus voltage is very high and the rising time is very fast, so that the energy is huge, and the shutdown protection may not be performed, so as to protect other functional components, a protection element is connected in series to the dc bus, and the protection element is a component that can be replaced quickly, for example: and the fuse, the pressure sensor and the like are used for triggering the protection element to be disconnected when the voltage value is larger than the third preset voltage value, disconnecting the direct current bus to protect other devices and generating shutdown alarm information so as to prompt maintenance personnel to process.
By applying the above technical solution, the controller of the air conditioner is configured to: if the voltage value of the direct current bus is detected to be larger than the first preset voltage value and not larger than the second preset voltage value, enabling the brake protection circuit to act; if the power switch tube is in a conducting state and the voltage value is detected to be reduced to be not more than the first preset voltage value, stopping the action of the brake protection circuit, wherein the first preset voltage value is the highest value of the bus voltage in a preset fluctuation range, so that the direct-current bus voltage is accurately controlled when the direct-current bus is not connected with the electrolytic capacitor;
if the voltage value is detected to be larger than the second preset voltage value and not larger than the third preset voltage value, controlling the outdoor unit to stop and keeping the indoor fan to run, restarting the outdoor unit until the first preset time is reached, and accurately controlling the voltage of the direct current bus on the premise of not affecting the use of a user by adopting software protection measures;
and if the voltage value is detected to be larger than the third preset voltage value, triggering the protection element to be disconnected, sending out shutdown alarm information, and ensuring the safety of the direct current bus based on hardware protection measures.
In order to further explain the technical idea of the application, the technical scheme of the application is described with specific application scenarios.
The air conditioner product has no electrolytic capacitor and the DC bus voltage is equal to the loss of protection. After the air conditioner is started, the voltage of the direct current bus is in a regular oscillation state after the compressor starts to operate, as the ascending load of the compressor increases, the voltage oscillation of the direct current bus also increases, the oscillation is in the control range of the electroless frequency conversion scheme and is normal, but if abnormal conditions such as power failure, abnormal chip reset, rapid frequency reduction or step-out of the compressor occur in the period, the rapid rising of the voltage of the direct current bus can be generated, the overvoltage of devices in the period is damaged, so that the abnormal abrupt change of the voltage of the direct current bus is prevented, and related electric parts are protected, and aiming at the problem, the embodiment of the application provides a voltage control method which is applied to the air conditioner comprising an outdoor unit and an indoor unit, and the air conditioner further comprises:
the power supply module comprises a direct current bus, wherein the direct current bus is not connected with an electrolytic capacitor for smoothing the bus voltage, the power supply module further comprises a brake protection circuit, the brake protection circuit comprises a driving chip, a power switch tube and a power resistor, the driving chip is connected with the power switch tube, and the power switch tube and the power resistor are connected in series between the positive pole and the negative pole of the direct current bus;
the controller is connected with the driving chip;
as shown in fig. 3, the method includes:
step one, monitoring the voltage value of a direct current bus in real time when the air conditioner is in normal operation.
If the voltage value is abnormal, judging the abnormal level, dividing the abnormal level into a level 1 condition, a level 2 condition and a level 3 condition according to the magnitude of the voltage value, setting the bus voltage to be M at the highest under the normal condition, and setting the bus voltage to be X (X > M) when the bus voltage exceeds the normal value under the level 1 condition; the bus voltage exceeds a normal value under the condition of the level 2, and is set as Y (Y > X); and in the case of the 3-stage, the bus voltage exceeds a normal value and is set as Z (Z > Y).
Step three, if the voltage value is X, the step 1 is entered, the step 1 is processed, including brake opening, so that the brake protection circuit acts, as shown in fig. 2, the driving chip works to control the power switch tube to be conducted, and as the power resistor and the power switch tube are directly connected in series between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the direct current bus, the power switch tube has almost no resistance value after being conducted, which is equivalent to instantly conducting the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the bus through the power resistor, thereby rapidly releasing the energy for pushing up the voltage of the direct current bus in the form of heat energy of the power resistor, and reducing the voltage of the direct current bus. The brake protection circuit can act for many times, and if the voltage value of the direct current bus is recovered to be normal, the brake is closed, and the brake protection circuit is closed.
Step four, if the voltage value is detected to be Y, entering a 2-level condition, performing 2-level processing, and starting soft protection, wherein the step four comprises the following steps: and controlling the outdoor unit to stop and keeping the indoor fan running until the first preset time is reached, and restarting the outdoor unit. If the bus voltage rises to enter the level 2 again in a short time after the air conditioner is recovered to normal operation, repeating the processing process, wherein the retry is allowed for three times at most, and the condition that the air conditioner is in abnormal condition due to other reasons is considered to be in need of stopping for alarming after the retry is allowed for three times, so that professional staff is prompted to maintain the air conditioner, and the safety of the air conditioner is protected.
And fifthly, if the voltage value is detected to be Z, entering a 3-level condition, performing 3-level processing, triggering a safety mechanism (namely a protection element) to act, and sending out a shutdown alarm message to prompt a professional to check and maintain.
In summary, aiming at the characteristic of unstable bus voltage of the electrolytic capacitor-free frequency conversion scheme, the problems can be effectively solved through the mode of combining real-time monitoring, three-stage protection control and software and hardware, the normal operation of an air conditioner is ensured to the greatest extent, the loss of faults is minimized, the level of the conventional electrolytic capacitor frequency conversion scheme can be achieved in use, but the method is superior to the electrolytic capacitor frequency conversion scheme in the aspects of economy, service life, processability and the like.
