See also Fig. 1, the early warning protector 1 of the utility model hard disk comprises sensing cell 10, connects the signal processing unit 20 and the early warning circuit 30 of sensing cell 10.The output signal of early warning circuit 30 received signal processing units 20, and send early warning signal in view of the above.The output signal of signal processing unit 20 exports the micro-control circuit 40 of hard disk 50 to, and the read-write steering order that micro-control circuit 40 receives output signals and exports hard disk is to hard disk 50, thereby stops the data read-write operation of hard disk 50.
Sensing cell 10 adopts acceleration sensing chip sensing hard disks to be subjected to outside acting force and acceleration when producing motion, for example adopts the 3-axis acceleration sensor chip of X, Y, Z axle.In this specific embodiment, adopt the sensor chip of H34C model.The acceleration sensing value that acting force produces on this sensor chip output X-axis, the Y direction is respectively AOX, AOY, but simultaneously H34C also being subjected to the gravity acceleration value that action of gravity produces and exporting sensing value during the hard disk freely falling body on the sensing vertical direction be ZeroG.When hard disk 50 of the present utility model was in the state of static or stress balance, sensing value AOX, the AOY of the output acceleration of X-axis, Y-axis was zero, and at this moment, the acceleration sensing value of ZeroG output also is zero, thereby this sensor chip is output as no-voltage.
As shown in Figure 2, signal processing circuit 20 comprises respectively first signal processing circuit 21 and the secondary signal treatment circuit 22 that electrically connects with sensing cell 10.First signal processing circuit 21 comprises the two groups of comparers 211,212 and first monostable circuit 213.Two groups of comparers 211,212 receive the AOX, the analog voltage of AOY of sensing signal output of X-axis, the Y direction of sensor chip H34C respectively, and be converted to digital signal, AOX, AOY signal input to two groups of comparers 211,212 respectively, thereby are respectively to export first monostable circuit 213 to after digital signal and the processing with AOX, AOY conversion of signals.Sensor chip H34C is the sensing signal that is subjected to outside acting force on sensing X-axis, the Y direction, according to the numerical algorithm of inside the magnitude of voltage of X, Y direction is carried out the sensing value that functional operation and output function value are AOX, AOY again, in the present embodiment, the aanalogvoltage threshold value of setting X, Y direction satisfies: minimum threshold 0.3g (1g=9.81m/s 2), max-thresholds is 4g.Thereby, voltage threshold after the magnitude of voltage on X, the Y direction is through the funtcional relationship computing is less than minimum threshold, or during greater than max-thresholds, then X, Y-axis are exported the magnitude of voltage of early warning, 21 of first signal processing circuits are converted to digital signal according to this early warning magnitude of voltage and via two groups of comparers 211,212, and export first monostable circuit, 213, the first monostable circuits, 213 outputs, first trigger pip to signal control circuit 23.In the present embodiment, signal control circuit 23 is single AND circuit 231, when the voltage threshold of the output signal on X, the Y direction after functional operation is lower than minimum threshold 0.3g, represent that then hard disk is in the state of freely falling body of non-upset or the state that the acceleration induction device is in the hard disk barycenter; If the voltage threshold of output signal after functional operation on the X, Y direction during greater than max-thresholds 4g, represents that then hard disk is in the free falling body state of rollover states.
