All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
When the induction heating equipment works, if the working frequency is larger than the resonant frequency, the induction heating equipment works in the inductive area, and if the working frequency is smaller than the resonant frequency, the induction heating equipment works in the capacitive area.
When the induction heating equipment works in the capacitive area, the loss of the driving module can be improved, the driving module is extremely easy to damage, and the heating safety is affected.
The resonant frequency is determined by the input voltage, the resonant coil parameters and the cooking appliance placed during induction heating, and because the materials of the cooking appliance used by the user are various, the resonant frequency is difficult to determine, and in order to avoid the induction heating device operating in the capacitive area, the inductance parameters of the resonant coil are increased in the related art so as to reduce the resonant frequency, but this reduces the heating efficiency of the induction heating device and increases the cost of the resonant coil.
In order to improve the above-described problems, the inventors propose a detection circuit, a method, an induction heating apparatus, and a storage medium, provided by the present application, the detection circuit including: the driving module is used for providing driving electric energy; the resonance module is connected with the driving module and is used for carrying out resonance work according to the driving electric energy; the detection module comprises a detection mutual inductance unit; the detection module is used for determining a detection signal according to the voltage of the detection mutual inductance unit; the control module is connected with the detection module and the driving module, and is used for determining the direction of the working current of the resonance module according to the detection signal and executing protection measures when the resonance module is determined to work in the capacitive area according to the direction of the working current and the working state of the driving module. According to the application, the direction of the working current is determined through the detection signal, so that the resonant module is accurately determined to work in the capacitive area according to the direction of the working current, and protection measures are executed when the resonant module works in the capacitive area, thereby reducing the loss of the driving module and ensuring the heating safety.
The detection circuit provided by the embodiment of the application will be described in detail through specific embodiments.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a detection circuit according to an embodiment of the application. As shown in fig. 1, the detection circuit 100 in fig. 1 includes a driving module 110, a resonance module 120, a detection module 130, and a control module 140.
In some embodiments, the driving module 110 is configured to provide driving power for the resonant module 120 to operate.
In some embodiments, the driving module 110 includes a switching module including at least two switching transistors, and the magnitude of the driving power provided by the driving module 110 may be adjusted by adjusting the switching frequency of the switching transistors.
Optionally, the switching tube may be a triode, a MOS (MOSFET, field effect transistor), a thyristor, an insulated gate bipolar transistor (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor, IGBT), or the like, which may be specifically selected according to the actual use requirement, which is not limited in the present application.
In some embodiments, the driving module 110 further includes a diode rectifier bridge for rectifying the ac power provided by the ac power source into dc power, and the switching module converts the dc power into the driving power required for the operation of the resonant module 120.
In some embodiments, the resonance module 120 is connected to the driving module 110; the resonance module 120 is used for performing resonance operation according to driving power; the resonance module 120 includes a resonance coil 121 and a resonance mutual inductance unit 122; wherein the resonant transformer 122 is the primary side of the current transformer.
Alternatively, the resonant transformer 122 is connected in series with the resonant coil 121.
In some embodiments, the detection module 130 includes a detection mutual inductance unit 131, and the detection module 130 is configured to determine a detection signal according to a voltage of the detection mutual inductance unit 131; wherein the detection mutual inductance unit 131 is a secondary side of the current transformer.
Specifically, the current transformer consists of a closed iron core and a winding, and is an instrument for converting primary side large current into secondary side small current according to an electromagnetic induction principle for measurement.
It will be appreciated that the resonant transformer unit 122 and the detection transformer unit 131 constitute a current transformer, by which the direction of the operating current in the resonant module 120 is changed when the direction of the operating current in the detection module 130 is changed, so that the direction of the operating current in the resonant module 120 can be determined by the detection module 130, as will be described in detail in the following embodiments.
In some embodiments, the control module 140 is connected to the detection module 130 and the driving module 110, and the control module 140 is configured to determine a direction of an operating current of the resonance module 120 according to the detection signal, and to perform a protection measure when it is determined that the resonance module 120 is operating in the capacitive region according to the direction of the operating current and an operating state of the driving module 110.
Specifically, when the resonance module 120 is operated in the capacitive region, the voltage change lags behind the current change, and when the resonance module 120 is operated in the inductive region, the current change lags behind the voltage change, so that when the resonance module 120 is operated in the capacitive region and the inductive region respectively, the direction of the operating current of the resonance module 120 when the operating state of the driving module 110 is changed is opposite, and thus the operating state of the driving module 110 can be obtained, and the direction of the inductive current when the resonance module 120 is operated in the inductive region in the operating state can be determined.
Specifically, if the direction of the operating current is the same as the direction of the inductive current, it is determined that the resonant module 120 is operating in the inductive region, and if the direction of the operating current is different from the direction of the inductive current, it is determined that the resonant module 120 is operating in the capacitive region, which will be described in the following embodiments.
In some embodiments, the control module 140 may employ an MCU (Microcontroller Unit; micro control unit), an MPU (Microprocessor Unit; microprocessor), a CPU (Central Processing Unit; central processing unit), etc., which may be specifically selected according to actual use needs, which is not limited by the present application.
In this way, the present application can determine whether the resonant module 120 works in the capacitive area through the direction of the working current, and perform the protection measures when the resonant module 120 works in the capacitive area, so as to avoid the driving module 110 from working when the induction heating device works in the capacitive area, reduce the loss of the driving module 110 and ensure the heating safety.
Compared with the related art, the technical scheme provided by the application does not need to increase the inductance parameter of the resonant coil, saves the production cost and improves the heating efficiency in the induction heating process.
Referring to fig. 2 again, fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a detection module according to an embodiment of the application. As shown in fig. 2, the detection module 130 includes a detection mutual inductance unit 131 and a comparison unit 132.
In some embodiments, the first input end 1321 of the comparing unit 132 is connected to the first end 1311 of the detecting transformer unit 131, the second input end 1322 of the comparing unit 132 is connected to the first constant voltage node, the output end 1323 of the comparing unit 132 is connected to the control module, and the comparing unit 132 is configured to determine the detecting signal according to the voltage of the first end 1311 of the detecting transformer unit 131 and the voltage of the first constant voltage node.
In the above manner, the comparing unit 132 may determine the detection signal by detecting the voltage of the first end 1311 of the mutual inductance unit 131, and the detection signal may reflect the direction of the operating current of the resonance module 120 to detect the direction of the operating current of the resonance module 120 in real time.
In some embodiments, the second terminal 1312 of the detection transformer 131 is connected to a second constant voltage node, wherein the voltage of the second constant voltage node is equal to the voltage of the first constant voltage node.
The input end of the comparing unit 132 cannot identify the negative voltage signal, the voltage of the detecting transformer 131 is a sine wave, and the voltage of the negative half cycle is less than zero and cannot be identified by the comparing unit 132; the second constant voltage node is thus provided to raise the zero point of the detection transformer unit 131 so that the voltage of the first end 1311 of the detection transformer unit 131 is always greater than zero.
Referring to fig. 3 again, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a voltage waveform of a first end of a detection transformer according to an embodiment of the application. As shown in fig. 3, the horizontal axis represents time t, the vertical axis represents voltage U at the first end of the detection transformer unit, and the zero point coordinate represents (0, voltage at the second constant voltage node).
When the voltage of the detecting transformer 131 is at the positive half cycle and the negative half cycle of the sine wave, the working current of the resonant module 120 is in the first direction and the second direction; the comparing unit 132 is configured to compare the voltage at the first end 1311 of the detecting transformer 131 with the voltage at the first constant voltage node, so that the detecting signals output by the comparing unit 132 are different level signals when the voltage of the detecting transformer 131 is respectively in the positive half cycle and the negative half cycle of the sine wave, so as to accurately detect the working current of the resonant module 120, and the voltage at the second constant voltage node needs to be equal to the voltage at the first constant voltage node.
If the voltage of the first constant voltage node is equal to the voltage of the second constant voltage node, in fig. 3, when the voltage of the first end 1311 of the detecting transformer 131 is greater than the voltage of the second constant voltage node, the detecting signal output by the comparing unit 132 is a first level signal, which is used to indicate that the working current of the resonant module 120 is located in the first direction; when the voltage of the first end 1311 of the detecting transformer 131 is smaller than the voltage of the second constant voltage node, the detecting signal output by the comparing unit 132 is a second level signal, which is used to indicate that the working current of the resonant module 120 is located in the second direction.
In some embodiments, the voltage of the second constant voltage node may be not equal to the voltage of the first constant voltage node, but close to the voltage of the first constant voltage node, so as to start to perform protection measures when the resonant module 120 operates in the inductive area but is close to the capacitive area, so as to more strictly protect the heating process of the induction heating device.
Referring to fig. 4 again, fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of another detection module according to an embodiment of the application. As shown in fig. 4, the detection module 130 includes a detection mutual inductance unit 131, a first comparison unit 133, and a second comparison unit 134.
In some embodiments, to improve detection accuracy, the detection module 130 includes a first comparison unit 133 and a second comparison unit 134.
The first input end 1331 of the first comparing unit 133 is connected to the first end 1311 of the detecting transformer unit 131, the second input end 1332 of the first comparing unit 133 is connected to the third constant voltage node, the output end 1333 of the first comparing unit is connected to the control module 140, and the first comparing unit 133 is configured to determine a first detecting signal according to the voltage of the first end 1311 of the detecting transformer unit 131 and the voltage of the third constant voltage node.
The first input end 1341 of the second comparing unit 134 is connected to the first end 1311 of the detecting mutual inductance unit 131, the second input end 1342 of the second comparing unit 134 is connected to the fourth constant voltage node, the output end 1343 of the second comparing unit 134 is connected to the control module, and the second comparing unit 134 is configured to determine the second detecting signal according to the voltage of the first end of the detecting mutual inductance unit 131 and the voltage of the fourth constant voltage node;
the control module 140 is configured to determine a direction of an operating current of the resonance module according to the first detection signal and the second detection signal.
In some embodiments, in order for the first comparing unit 133 and the second comparing unit 134 to be used for detecting the operating currents of the resonant modules 120 in different directions, respectively, the first input terminal of the first comparing unit 133 is a forward input terminal, and the first input terminal of the second comparing unit 134 is a reverse input terminal.
In the above manner, when the detection signals output by the first comparing unit 133 and the second comparing unit 134 are opposite level signals, that is, when the first detection signal output by the first comparing unit 133 is a high level signal, the second detection signal output by the second comparing unit 134 is a low level signal; when the first detection signal output by the first comparing unit 133 is a low level signal, the second detection signal output by the second comparing unit 134 is a high level signal, so that the control module 140 determines the direction of the working current according to the first detection signal and the second detection signal, respectively, and the detection accuracy of the direction of the working current is improved.
In some embodiments, the second end of the detecting transformer 131 is connected to a fifth constant voltage node, and in order to avoid misjudging the direction of the working current by the first comparing unit 133 and the second comparing unit 134, the voltage of the fifth constant voltage node is less than or equal to the voltage of the third constant voltage node, and the voltage of the fifth constant voltage node is greater than or equal to the voltage of the fourth constant voltage node.
Referring to fig. 5 again, fig. 5 is another schematic diagram of detecting a voltage at a first end of a mutual inductance unit according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 5, the horizontal axis represents time t, the vertical axis represents voltage U at the first end of the detection transformer unit, and the zero point coordinate represents (0, voltage at the fifth constant voltage node).
In fig. 5, when the voltage of the first end 1311 of the detecting transformer 131 is greater than the voltage of the third constant voltage node, the detecting signal output by the first comparing unit 133 is a first level signal, for indicating that the working current of the resonant module 120 is located in the first direction; when the voltage of the first end 1311 of the detecting transformer 131 is smaller than the voltage of the fourth constant voltage node, the detecting signal output by the second comparing unit 134 is a first level signal, which is used to indicate that the working current of the resonant module 120 is located in the second direction.
In fig. 5, the third constant voltage node is greater than the voltage of the fifth constant voltage node, and the voltage of the fourth constant voltage node is less than the voltage of the fifth constant voltage node, so as to avoid misjudgment of the working capacitive area of the induction heating device by the control module due to fine fluctuation of the voltage, and improve the recognition accuracy of the direction of the working current.
Further, the voltage values of the third constant voltage node and the fourth constant voltage node may be unequal to set different detection voltage points for the first detection unit 133 and the second detection unit 134, so that the detection process may be automatically adjusted according to actual needs, and the recognition accuracy is improved.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is another schematic diagram of a detection circuit according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 6, the detection circuit 100 includes a driving module 110, a resonance module 120, a detection module 130, and a control module 140.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 6, the driving module 110 includes a diode rectifier bridge, a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, a first switching tube IGBT1, and a second switching tube IGBT2.
The diode rectifier bridge takes an AC input (ALTERNATING CURRENT ) through ports L1 and N1 and rectifies the alternating current into direct current.
The first switching tube IGBT1 is connected with the control module 140 through a first resistor R1 and is used for receiving a first driving signal PWM-H sent by the control module 140, and the first driving signal PWM-H is used for controlling the first switching tube IGBT1 to be turned on or turned off; the second switching tube IGBT2 is connected to the control module 140 through a second resistor R2, and is configured to receive a second driving signal PWM-L sent by the control module 140, where the second driving signal PWM-L is used to control the second switching tube IGBT2 to be turned on or off.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 6, the resonance module 120 includes a resonance coil X1, a resonance mutual inductance unit, a first resonance unit, and a second resonance unit; the first resonance unit comprises a capacitor C1, the second resonance unit comprises a capacitor C2, the resonance mutual inductance unit comprises a primary side of the current transformer TL1, and the primary side of the current transformer TL1 is a 1-end to 2-end part of the current transformer TL 1.
Further, the resonant coil X1, the resonant transformer, the capacitor C1 and the driving module 110 form a first resonant circuit, and when the first switching tube IGBT1 is turned on and the second switching tube IGBT2 is turned off, the resonant module 120 works under the first resonant circuit; the resonant coil X1, the resonant transformer, the capacitor C2 and the driving module 110 form a second resonant circuit, and when the first switching tube IGBT1 is turned off and the second switching tube IGBT2 is turned on, the resonant module 120 operates in the second resonant circuit.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 6, the direction of the operating current of the resonance module 120 when the resonance module 120 operates under the first resonance loop is defined as a positive direction, and the current flows from the resonance coil X1 to the resonance transformer unit to the capacitor C1.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 6, the direction of the operating current of the resonant module 120 when the resonant module 120 operates in the second resonant tank is defined as a negative direction, and the current flows from the capacitor C2 to the resonant transformer unit to the resonant coil X1.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 6, the detection module 130 includes a first comparison unit, a second comparison unit, a detection mutual inductance unit, a third resistor R3, a fourth resistor R4, a fifth resistor R5, a sixth resistor R6, a seventh resistor R7, an eighth resistor R8, and a power source VCC; the first comparison unit comprises a comparator U1A, the second comparison unit comprises a comparator U1B, the detection mutual inductance unit comprises a secondary side of the current transformer, and the secondary side of the current transformer is a 3-end to 4-end part of the current transformer TL 1.
Specifically, the first end, i.e. the 3 end, of the detecting transformer unit is connected to the forward input end of the U1A and the reverse input end of the U1B, the second end, i.e. the 4 end, of the detecting transformer unit is connected to the fifth constant voltage node B, and the voltage at the point B is the voltage of the eighth resistor R8, so that the voltage of the detecting transformer unit is a sine wave, and the zero point of the sine wave is the voltage at the point B.
It is understood that the resistance values of the fifth resistor R5 and the eighth resistor R8 may be set in advance so that the voltage of the eighth resistor R8, that is, the voltage of the point B, is constant, or a variable resistance device such as a sliding resistor may be used instead of the fifth resistor R5 or the eighth resistor R8 to adjust the voltage of the point B at any time.
Further, the resonant transformer in the resonant module 120 is the same as the current direction of the detection transformer in the detection module 130.
Therefore, when the direction of the working current of the resonance module 120 is the positive direction, the direction of the current in the detection mutual inductance unit is from 3 end to 4 end, and the voltage of the 3 end of the detection mutual inductance unit is larger than the voltage of the point B; when the direction of the working current of the resonance module 120 is a negative direction, the direction of the current in the detection mutual inductance unit is from 4 end to 3 end, and the voltage of the 3 end of the detection mutual inductance unit is smaller than the voltage of the point B.
Specifically, the positive input end of the comparator U1A is connected to the first end, i.e. the 3 end, of the detection transformer unit, and the negative input end of the comparator U1A is connected to the third constant voltage node C.
When the 3-terminal voltage is greater than the C-point voltage, if the B-point voltage is less than or equal to the C-point voltage, the first detection signal output by the U1A is a high-level signal, and at this time, the current flowing from the 3-terminal to the 4-terminal of the detection transformer unit is reflected, that is, the direction of the working current of the resonant module 120 is a positive direction.
It is understood that the resistance values of the third resistor R3 and the fifth resistor R5 may be set in advance so that the voltage of the fifth resistor R5, that is, the voltage of the point C is constant, or a variable resistance device such as a sliding rheostat may be used instead of the third resistor R3 or the fifth resistor R5 to adjust the voltage of the point B at any time.
Specifically, the reverse input end of the comparator U1B is connected to the first end, i.e. the 3 end, of the detection transformer unit, and the forward input end of the comparator U1B is connected to the fourth constant voltage node D.
When the 3-terminal voltage is smaller than the D-point voltage, if the B-point voltage is greater than or equal to the D-point voltage, when the second detection signal output by the U1A is a high-level signal, the current flowing from the 4-terminal to the 3-terminal of the detection transformer unit is reflected, that is, the direction of the working current of the resonant module 120 is a negative direction.
