The Hall current sensor can realize the isolation and signal conversion between a primary side (a main loop) and a secondary side (a secondary loop), further realize the detection and monitoring of strong current and large current in a working condition circuit, and output a weak current signal or other communication signals in a certain proportion relation so as to meet the data acquisition of an upper-level control and protection system.

Most of Hall current sensors in the prior art adopt C-shaped (annular) or U-shaped traditional iron cores, and have unsatisfactory points in performance, structure and manufacturing process, and mainly comprise the following defects:

1. c-shaped iron core

When the current to be measured flows through the copper bar (i.e. the busbar) to be converged, a magnetic field is generated by surrounding along the current direction of the copper bar according to the right-hand spiral rule, and according to instrument detection and experimental analysis, the magnetic induction intensity distributed in the middle area of the wide sides (the upper wide side and the lower wide side) of the busbar converging section is the largest, i.e. the magnetic force lines are the densest; and the magnetic induction intensity distributed on the narrow side is relatively small.

Therefore, when the C-shaped iron core is matched with the copper bar for use, the four corners of the bus cross section of the copper bar are closest to the iron core and the coil, and the two wide sides are farthest from the iron core and the coil.

In addition, the C-shaped iron core has the problem of unbalanced winding of the secondary compensation coil due to the structural characteristics of the C-shaped iron core, the distance between two adjacent turns in the coil is positioned at the closer side of one side in the ring and the distance is positioned at the farther side of the outer side of the ring, so that the phenomenon that the arrangement in the ring is dense and the arrangement outside the ring is sparse occurs in the coil, and when the compensation current flows, the magnetic density gathered by the inner ring of the iron core is greater than that of the outer ring, so that the magnetic field is leaked from the center.

Referring to fig. 6, in the present embodiment, coil frames 6 are disposed between the two secondary compensation coils and the R-shaped open core 1 to facilitate coil winding. The complete coil framework 6 is formed by splicing two coil frameworks in a split manner, and a cavity formed in the spliced frameworks can just contain an iron core.

The working process of the Hall current sensor is as follows:

when the current to be measured Ip flows through the primary side busbar, the generated magnetic field is gathered by the R-shaped open core, and the magnetic field penetrates through the hall element at the open air gap of the core to induce a corresponding electrical signal. The electric signal Is amplified by the operational amplifier A to output and drive the compensating current power tube VT1 or VT2, so as to obtain a compensating current Is. The compensation current Is flows through the secondary compensation coil to generate a compensation magnetic field, and the direction of the compensation magnetic field Is opposite to that of the magnetic field generated by the measured current Ip flowing through the primary side bus bar, so that the primary side magnetic field Is compensated (weakened), and the induction output of the Hall element Is gradually reduced.

When the compensation magnetic field Is equal to the primary magnetic field, the compensation current Is not increased any more, and the Hall element plays a role of indicating zero magnetic flux at the moment, and Ip can be measured through Is. When Ip changes, balance is damaged, the Hall element has signal output, and balance can be achieved again by repeating the process.

This balance is broken by any change in the measured current; once the magnetic field is unbalanced, the Hall element has signal output, after amplification driving, corresponding current flows through the secondary compensation coil to carry out the in-field compensation on the unbalanced magnetic field, the time consumption is less than 1us theoretically from the unbalance to the rebalancing of the magnetic field, and a closed-loop control process with quick response is formed.

It is found in practical application, the contrast magnetic flux density of taking a sample under the same magnetic field intensity and magnetic conduction material strip spare, C type iron core is on average only the utility model discloses well R type open iron core's 89.47%, it is visible the utility model discloses a R type open iron core's magnetic leakage is far less than traditional C type iron core to it is higher to realize hall sensor's the degree of accuracy, can not cause great temperature drift from this.
