Definitions

  • a fluorescent tube, fitted with a stabilization ballast, is generally lit using a bimetallic starter; such means have contacts which are put out of use in the more or less long term, often being activated several times for the same ignition. This has the consequence of producing, before the final lighting, a series of beats, which is troublesome for the user, and which causes a significant blackening of the electrodes of the fluorescent tube.
  • the invention aims to remedy these drawbacks, and relates to a low-cost electronic choke as well as a small footprint, which allows the ignition of any fluorecent tube in less than two seconds and without untimely beating.
  • the timer circuit cooperates with these first two circuits, by means of a single switching device: on the one hand, to determine the preheating time, on the other hand, to prohibit the establishment of the overvoltage during this preheating, and at the end, ensure the gradual increase in the amplitude of the pulse of the overvoltage applied to the fluorescent tube, until it reaches the value necessary for the lighting of this tube.
  • a choke according to the invention As shown in the single figure, a choke according to the invention, all of the components of which it is located inside a block 111 (shown in dotted lines), has two connection points A and B respectively.
  • a fluorescent tube 1, c intended to operate with this starter and comprising a first filament FI and a second filament F2 is mini of a ballast 2.
  • the filament F1 is connected by its pad P1 to connection A, and by its pad P2 to the end B1 of the ballast 2, the other end B2 of which is connected to the terminal 10 of one of the outputs of a supply network AC, represented by the rectangle 3.
  • the element F2 is connected, to the connection B by its pad P3, and by its pad P4, to the terminal 20 of the other output of the supply network 3.
  • connection A is connected to terminal Pt2 of a thermal protection element 5, the adorns Pt2 leads to the end E1 of the secondary winding.
  • the role of the thermal protection element 5 is to cut the circuit in case of prohibitive heating of the autotransformer -1 on which it is fixed; this element can be constituted by any known means, such as for example a bimetallic element whose cont and opens with the increase in its temperature.
  • the other end of the secondary winding S comes out on the intermediate socket E2, common to the secondary winding S and to the e only primary P, of which the other exit is at E3.
  • the transformation ratio of these two windings allows, starting from the signals generated in the primary winding P, to obtain by the secondary S the overvoltage necessary for the lighting of the fluorescent tube 1, overvoltage essential for the lighting of the small tubes. diameter.
  • the capacitor C2 is connected by one of its terminals to the winding P, at E3, and by its other terminal, on the one hand, to the anode of a single switching ogane which in the example given in the description according to the invention is a thyristor Th whose cathode is brought back to the intermediate tap E2, and on the other hand to the resistor R6, which by its other end, is connected to the cathode of the diode D1, and to resistance R7 mounted in parallel with this diode.
  • the anode of the diode D1 is also connected to the intermediate tap E2. All of these elements with the autotransformer T1 constitute the ignition overvoltage generator circuit of the fluorescent tube 1; resistor R6 is also used to avoid clipping of the overvoltage in the case of certain fluorescent tubes.
  • the capacitor C1 is connected, by its positive terminal to the intermediate socket E2, and by its negative terminal and the series resistor R5, to the anode of the diode D3, itself connected by its cathode to the resistor R8, l the other end of resistor R8 is connected to connection B.
  • the capacitor C1, the resistor R5 and the diode D3 constitute a timer circuit.
  • the zener diode D4, mounted in parallel with the resistor R3, has its anode connected to the negative terminal of the capacitor C1 and its cathode connected to the resistor R2, the other end of the resistor R2 is joined to the trigger G of the thyristor Th as well as resistor R4, the other terminal of which is connected to the intermediate prize E2.
  • the resistor R1 is connected on one side to the cathode of the diode D3, to the anode of the diode D2, to the resistor R8, and on the other side to the trigger G of the thyristor Th.
  • the resistors R8 and R1 constitute a first control channel of the thyristor Th, intended for establishing the overvoltage.
  • the diode D2 with a controlled avalanche, is connected by its cathode to the anode of the thyristor Th, as well as to the resistor R6 and to the capacitors C2, C3 and C4; the other armature of the capacitor C3 is joined to the cathode of the diode D4 and to the common point of the resistors R2 and R3.
  • the capacitor C4 connected by one of its terminals to the anode, and by the other to the trigger of the thyristor Th, is used to reset the latter which, without which risks being blocked during the oscillating discharge of the capacitor C2.
  • the circuit composed of the resistor R8, the diode D2, the capacitor C3 and the resistor R2 constitute a second control channel of the thyristor Th, intended for establishing preheating.
  • connection B When the positive alternation of the supply network occurs at connection B, the diode D2 becomes conductive, and from the start of this alternation, a positive pulse is transmitted by the resistor R8, the diode D2, the capacitor C3 and the resistor R2, to the trigger G of the thyristor Th to control the latter; the latter goes into the conducting state and gives rise to a current which is used to preheat the filaments F1 and F2.
  • This current mainly limited by the resistor R8 is unidirectional.
  • filament F2 resistor R8, diode D2, thyristor Th, secondary winding S, thermal protection element 5, filament F1, ballast 2 and is closed by the supply network 3.
  • the assembly consisting of the capacitor C2 and the primary P is short-circuited by the thyristor Th which thus prevents the charging of the capacitor C2 during the preheating of the filaments F1 and F2.
  • connection B With the reverse polarity of the network, negative alternation is applied to connection B; the thyristor Th is blocked, the diode D2 is no longer conductive, but the diode D3 on the other hand, becomes conductive and allows the passage of a current which is limited by the resistance R8 and the resistance R5, of which it is the role, partially charges the capacitor C1.
  • the latter then develops a negative voltage as a function of its charge, at the level of its negative armature; a fraction of this voltage is applied to the trigger G by the resistors R3 and R2, which form a voltage divider bridge with the resistor R4.
  • This negative voltage present on the trigger G serves as a reference to the positive pulses transmitted by the capacitor C3 for the control of the thyristor Th, and from certain values which this negative voltage will reach over time, the peak level of these pulses will no longer have the level necessary to cause the conducting state of the TH thyristor.
  • the capacitor C1 develops an increasing negative voltage with each negative alternation at connection B; this twnsion is applied, as already described above, to the trigger G, where it will reach the level necessary to prevent the transition to the conducting state of the thyristor Th under the control of the pulses transmitted by the capacitor C3 and the resistor R2.
  • Another characteristic of the invention resides in the fact that the variations of this negative voltage, when the latter reaches a sufficient level, are fully applied to the resistor R2, by means of a voltage regulating element at its terminals; this allows a clear transition to be made, between the moment when the pulses transmitted by the capacitor C3 and the resistor R2 at the trigger G, manage to trigger the conduction of the thyristor Th, and the moment when they no longer succeed.
  • the voltage regulating element at its terminals can be a any known means, such as for example a zener diode, as well as in this description where it is the diode D4.
  • a choke according to the invention also has another very advantageous characteristic in terms of the reduction of the components; this characteristic resides in the fact that, the preheating circuit and the overvoltage circuit, operate thanks to a single switching member which is common to them, and which in the example described is the thyristor Th.
  • This new characteristic of the present invention makes it possible to apply to a fluorescent tube 1, an overvoltage which gradually reaches the value necessary for its ignition.
  • the fluorescent tube 1 being on, its arc voltage present between connections A and B, is lower than that of the supply network 3, causing the choke to stop operating.
  • the capacitor C1 continues to charge, and determines on the trigger G a voltage level such that the thyristor Th is no longer triggered, hence the generation of overvoltage generations. ignition.
  • a choke according to the invention can ensure the lighting of any fluorescent tube, and this in particular in applications requiring a large number of ignitions.
