The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood in specific cases to those skilled in the art.
As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the present invention provides a leakage detecting circuit, a leakage protection circuit and a household appliance.
Fig. 1 is a schematic circuit diagram of the leakage detecting circuit 101. The electric leakage detection circuit 101 comprises a live conductor G with alternating current, a connection end H is arranged on the detected conductor B, and the connection end H is connected with a voltage detection circuit; the voltage detection circuit comprises a first coupling capacitor C1, a sampling resistor R1 and a second coupling capacitor C2 which are connected in sequence; the first coupling capacitor C1 is connected with the tested conductor B, and the second coupling capacitor C2 is grounded.
The junction of the sampling resistor R1 and the second coupling capacitor C2 forms a reference point E for detecting the voltage at two ends of the sampling resistor R1.
The live conductor G has a first state and a second state, when the voltage at the two ends of the sampling resistor R1 is smaller than a set threshold, the live conductor G is in the first state, at the moment, the live conductor G does not leak electricity, and the live conductor G is disconnected from the tested conductor B equivalently; when the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold value, and the live conductor G is in the second state, the live conductor G leaks current, which is equivalent to the live conductor G being connected to the tested conductor B.
In detail, as shown in fig. 1, the circuit structure includes a power system, and the power system includes a ground, a transformer T output winding, a live conductor L, a live conductor G, and a measured conductor B. The transformer T is a neutral-grounded transformer, and the phase terminal pair of the winding has an ac voltage to ground, and the outgoing line becomes the hot line L. The live conductor is connected to the live line, and therefore, the live conductor has an alternating voltage to earth.
When the live conductor G does not leak, the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 in the voltage detection circuit is smaller than the set threshold, and at this time, the live conductor G and the detected conductor B are in the first state, that is, the live conductor G and the detected conductor B are disconnected, so that no current flows through the voltage detection circuit connected to the connection terminal H and the detected conductor B, or the current is very small.
When the live conductor G leaks electricity, the live conductor G and the detected conductor B are connected at the leakage point a, and at this time, the live conductor G and the detected conductor B are connected, so that the current in the live conductor G flows through the voltage detection circuit through the connection end H, a loop is formed between the current and the ground, and a potential difference exists between the access point D of the sampling resistor R1 in the voltage detection circuit and the reference point E, that is, the voltage at two ends of the sampling resistor R1 is greater than or equal to a set threshold value. In this case, it means that the current also flows through the conductor B to be measured.
Therefore, whether the leakage point exists in the electrified conductor G can be determined according to whether the alternating voltage acquired by the sampling resistor is higher than a certain set threshold value.
The tested conductor B can be the shell of a household appliance or a conductor which should not be electrified but is possibly electrified. For example, when the tested conductor B is the housing of the household appliance and the insulating layer of the live conductor G is damaged, the live conductor G has a leakage point a, so that the tested conductor B, i.e. the housing of the household appliance, is conducted with the live conductor G.
When the voltage detection circuit is electrically connected to the live conductor G, the first coupling capacitor C1 and the second coupling capacitor C2 have a characteristic of "alternating current and direct current", and therefore a loop having a current is formed between the live conductor G, the voltage detection circuit, and the ground.
At this time, the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 can be detected by connecting a voltmeter to the ends of the sampling resistor R1, where the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 has a constant voltage. For example, when a multimeter is used to detect the voltage across the sampling resistor R1, and two terminals of the multimeter are connected to two ends of the sampling resistor R1, respectively, the multimeter will display the value of the specific voltage across the sampling resistor R1 at that time.
In other words, if a multimeter is used to detect that the voltage is present across the sampling resistor R1, it indicates that the live conductor G is leaking current, and the housing of the household appliance may be live, and if the housing is touched, there is a risk of electric shock.
On the contrary, if the universal meter is adopted to detect the voltages at the two ends of the sampling resistor R1, the voltage is not detected, which indicates that no leakage phenomenon occurs in the electric conduction, the shell is not electrified, and the risk of electric shock when a user touches the shell is very small and almost zero.
In the leakage detecting circuit 101 of the present invention, when leakage occurs, one end of the voltage detecting circuit is connected to the live conductor G, and the other end is grounded. The junction of the sampling resistor R1 and the second coupling capacitor C2 is the reference point E when the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 is obtained.
In the process, the scheme adopted by the invention is that the ground is used as a reference potential point, and the second coupling capacitor C2 is arranged, so that when the voltage at two ends of the sampling resistor R1 is detected, the reference point E and the reference potential point form stronger and more stable coupling, and the reference point E of the voltage acquisition circuit becomes a reliable reference.
Furthermore, by arranging the second coupling capacitor C2, a circuit loop combining electric connection and capacitive coupling is completely erected, so that the measurement is stable and reliable.
In a further scheme, a voltage dividing resistor R2 is further disposed between the first coupling capacitor C1 and the sampling resistor R1.
In detail, the voltage dividing resistor R2 is arranged to make the voltage value at the two ends of the sampling resistor R1 smaller, so as to facilitate the comparison between the voltage of the sampling resistor R1 and the comparator.
For example, when a transistor conduction voltage is used as the comparison voltage, the required set threshold should be about 0.7 v.
In the above scheme, the voltage dividing resistor R2 is arranged, so that the voltage at two ends of the sampling resistor R1 can be acquired more accurately, the implementation is convenient, and the debugging is also convenient.
In a further aspect, the second coupling capacitor C2 may be an electronic component with a capacitive characteristic, or a capacitor formed by two metal structures close to each other.
In detail, the second coupling capacitor C2 is used to form a stronger and more stable coupling between the two ends of the second coupling capacitor C2, i.e., the reference point E and the reference potential point F.
Therefore, the second coupling capacitor C2 of the present invention only needs to be able to conduct the reference point E and the reference potential point F in an ac state.
Preferably, in some embodiments, in order to simplify the circuit structure, an electronic component having a capacitive characteristic may be selected as the second coupling capacitor C2.
In other embodiments, in order to fully utilize the existing structure of the circuit, the second coupling capacitor C2 is designed as two metal structures close to each other, so that the two metal structures close to each other form a capacitor, and the capacitor has the characteristic of "alternating current and direct current".
In a further aspect, the first coupling capacitor C1 is an electronic component with a capacitive characteristic, or a capacitor formed by two metal structures close to each other.
In detail, the first coupling capacitor C1 functions to form a stronger and more stable coupling between two ends of the first coupling capacitor C1.
Therefore, the first coupling capacitor C1 of the present invention only needs to be able to conduct in an ac state.
Preferably, in some embodiments, in order to simplify the circuit structure, an electronic component having a capacitive characteristic may be selected as the first coupling capacitor C1.
In other embodiments, in order to fully utilize the existing structure of the circuit, the first coupling capacitor C1 is designed as two metal structures close to each other, so that the two metal structures close to each other form a capacitor, and the capacitor has the characteristic of "alternating current and direct current".
In a further scheme, two ends of the sampling resistor R1 are connected to a voltage acquisition circuit for detecting voltages at two ends of the sampling resistor R1.
For example, a voltmeter is connected between both ends of the sampling resistor R1.
Still alternatively, the sampling resistor R1 itself may be configured to include a combination of a high impedance resistor and an indicator light, similar to the test pencil principle, that illuminates when the voltage across the indicator light reaches a certain value.
The invention also provides an electric leakage protection circuit which comprises the electric leakage detection circuit 101 and the detection circuit 102.
As shown in fig. 2, the voltage acquisition circuit uses the detection circuit 102 to amplify and process the voltage across the sampling resistor R1. When a sufficiently large ac voltage is present across the sampling resistor R1, a display or alarm signal will be generated by the detection circuit 102.
The leakage detection circuit 101 obtains the voltage across the sampling resistor R1, and when the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 is lower than a set threshold, no leakage occurs, and the leakage protection circuit 10 is maintained in a normal state. When the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 is greater than or equal to the set threshold, indicating that an electrical leakage has occurred, the electrical leakage protection circuit 10 sends out a warning message or directly cuts off the power supply source of the live conductor G.
Note that the sensitivity of the leakage detection circuit 101 can be adjusted by adjusting the magnitude of the set threshold. The sensitivity is low, and the current flowing through the human body is too large, so that the leakage protection effect cannot be realized; the sensitivity is too high, which causes the leakage protector to malfunction due to normal tiny leakage of the circuit or the electrical equipment, and the power supply is cut off, so the leakage protector needs to be adjusted to the most appropriate value.
For example, when the leakage protection requirement is high, the set threshold value may be set to a small value, and the sensitivity of leakage detection is high, so that the leakage protection requirement can be satisfied. When the requirement for leakage protection is slightly low, the set threshold value can be set to be a relatively large value, so that the sensitivity of leakage detection is relatively low, and misoperation caused by small leakage can be avoided.
As shown in fig. 3, in one embodiment, the leakage protection circuit 10 includes a leakage detection circuit 101 and a detection circuit 102, wherein the detection circuit 102 includes a voltage conditioning circuit 1021, a comparison circuit 1022 and an alarm circuit 1023.
The voltage conditioning circuit 1021 is connected to two ends of the sampling resistor R1 in the leakage detection circuit 101, and is configured to condition the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 and output the conditioned voltage to the comparison circuit 1022.
The voltage conditioning circuit 1021 may include one or more of voltage conversion, rectification, filtering, amplification, and the like, and convert the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 into a suitable voltage and output the suitable voltage to the comparison circuit 1022.
The comparison circuit 1022 is configured to compare the conditioned voltage with a reference voltage in the comparison circuit 1022, and output a comparison result to the warning circuit 1023.
The warning circuit 1023 sends out warning information according to the comparison result.
In detail, since the voltage of the ac commercial power of 220 v is introduced to the live line L, when the live conductor G leaks, the transformer T is provided, as if the ac power is connected to the leakage detecting circuit, and the coupling capacitor provides an ac channel for the leakage detecting circuit, so that an ac voltage is generated across the sampling resistor R1. Because the voltage amplitude, period, noise and other factors of the voltage cannot be directly used for detection, and the voltage is output after being processed by the conditioning circuit, the voltage conditioning circuit 1021 has the function of performing voltage amplitude conversion, rectification, filtering, amplification and other processing on the voltage at the two ends of the sampling resistor R1, so that the alternating-current voltage at the two ends of the resistor corresponds to a direct-current output voltage with a proper amplitude. Then, the adjusted voltage is outputted to the comparison circuit 1022.
The comparison circuit 1022 is provided with a reference voltage, and the comparison circuit 1022 compares and outputs the output voltage of the conditioning circuit with the reference voltage, so as to judge the amplitude of the voltage at the two ends of the sampling resistor R1. Preferably, the reference voltage is a set threshold. For example, when the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 is greater than a set threshold, that is, the input voltage of the comparison circuit 1022 is greater than the reference voltage of the comparison circuit 1022, the comparison circuit 1022 outputs a high level signal; when the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 is less than the set threshold, i.e., the input voltage of the comparison circuit 1022 is less than the reference voltage of the comparison circuit 1022, the comparison circuit 1022 outputs a low level. The comparison result is output to the alert circuit 1023 regardless of whether it is high or low.
The alert circuit 1023 may be a light alert, a sound alert, or a combination of both. For example, when the warning circuit 1023 receives a high level, it controls the light to flash and the warning whistle to indicate that a current leakage occurs, and prompts the user or the operator to perform the next operation to cut off the power supply to the live conductor G. When warning circuit 1023 receives the low level, control light or whistle and keep the state of not giving out light, not whistling, show that the electric leakage phenomenon does not take place this moment, can continue to supply power to electrified conductor G, make the equipment normal operating of being connected with electrified conductor G.
As shown in fig. 4, in another embodiment, the leakage protection circuit 10 includes a leakage detection circuit 101 and a detection circuit 102, wherein the detection circuit 102 includes a voltage conditioning circuit 1021, a comparison circuit 1022, and a switch circuit 1024. The switch circuit 1024 is used to control the conduction and disconnection between the live conductor G and the power supply terminal.
The voltage conditioning circuit 1021 is connected to two ends of the sampling resistor R1 in the leakage detection circuit 101, and is configured to convert the ac voltage at two ends of the sampling resistor R1 to a dc output voltage with an appropriate amplitude, and output the dc output voltage to the comparison circuit 1022.
In detail, the voltage conditioning circuit 1021 may include one or more of voltage conversion, rectification, filtering, amplification, and the like, and convert the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 into a suitable voltage and output the suitable voltage to the comparison circuit 1022.
The comparison circuit 1022 is configured to compare the conditioned voltage with a reference voltage, and output a comparison result to the switch circuit 1024.
The switching circuit 1024 is turned off or on according to the comparison result.
In detail, since the voltage introduced to the live conductor G is 220 v ac mains, when the live conductor G leaks, the live conductor G further includes a transformer T, which is connected to the leakage detection circuit, and the coupling capacitor provides an ac channel for the leakage detection circuit, so that an ac voltage is generated across the sampling resistor R1. The ac voltage cannot be directly detected due to factors such as voltage amplitude, period, noise, etc., but is output after being processed by the conditioning circuit, and the voltage conditioning circuit 1021 performs voltage amplitude conversion, rectification, filtering, amplification, etc. on the voltage at the two ends of the sampling resistor R1, so that the ac voltage at the two ends of the resistor corresponds to a dc output voltage with a proper amplitude. Then, the adjusted voltage is outputted to the comparison circuit 1022.
The comparison circuit 1022 is provided with a reference voltage, and the comparison circuit 1022 compares and outputs the output voltage of the conditioning circuit with the reference voltage, so as to judge the amplitude of the voltage at the two ends of the sampling resistor R1. For example, when the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 is greater than a set threshold, that is, the input voltage of the comparison circuit 1022 is greater than the reference voltage of the comparison circuit 1022, the comparison circuit 1022 outputs a high level signal; when the voltage across the sampling resistor R1 is less than the set threshold, i.e., the input voltage of the comparison circuit 1022 is less than the reference voltage of the comparison circuit 1022, the comparison circuit 1022 outputs a low level. The comparison result is output to the switching circuit 1024 regardless of whether it is high or low.
For example, when the switching circuit 1024 receives a high level, it indicates that a leakage phenomenon occurs at this time, and controls the switching circuit 1024 to turn off to cut off the power supply to the live conductor G. When the switch circuit 1024 receives a low level, it indicates that no leakage occurs, and the switch circuit 1024 is controlled to be turned on, so that power can be continuously supplied to the live conductor G, and the device connected to the live conductor G can normally operate.
In the above-mentioned scheme, the voltage conditioning circuit 1021, the comparing circuit 1022, the warning circuit 1023 and the switch circuit 1024 have various implementation forms, and the present invention does not limit the specific structures of the voltage conditioning circuit 1021, the warning circuit 1023 and the switch circuit 1024, and any structure capable of implementing the above-mentioned scheme of the present invention is within the protection scope of the present invention.
In the above scheme, the leakage detection circuit 101 with the second coupling capacitor C2 is adopted to form a strong and stable coupling between the detection reference point E and the reference potential point F, so that the detection reference point E becomes a reliable reference, the measurement is stable and reliable, and the leakage or the false alarm is not caused.

Further, the household appliance is a gas water heater, an electric water heater or a heat pump water heater.
