Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a circuit for safety shutdown an AC operating circuit for discharge lamps, in particular low-pressure discharge lamps according to the preamble of Claim 1.
  • operating circuits for several lamps are also meant, that is operating circuits for at least one lamp.
  • Discharge lamps come with AC power operated, usually with a high frequency power.
  • For DC decoupling one is connected in series with the lamp Coupling capacitor used.
  • C. H. Sturm and E. Klein Ole. Klein "Operating Devices and Circuits for Electric Lamps", 6. Edition 1992, Siemens AG.
  • Circuits with safety shutdown devices that are based on the Address lamp voltage, that is to say on the discharge path of the lamp falling voltage.
  • the invention accordingly starts from one Circuit for AC operation of a discharge lamp via a Coupling capacitor connected in series with the lamp for DC isolation with a safety shutdown device as used in ballasts OSRAM QTEC are known.
  • EP-A-696 157 describes a circuit for AC operation of a discharge lamp described with a safety shutdown on a DC voltage at the coupling capacitor through a through the lamp flowing DC component responds.
  • the electronic ballast includes AC operation of a discharge lamp, a safety shutdown, the am by a direct current component flowing through the lamp Coupling capacitor is triggered.
  • the object of the invention is to improve the circuit in such a way that that the threshold switching of the safety shutdown in addition to the DC voltage at the coupling capacitor also to an excessive DC link voltage the operating circuit responds.
  • the same threshold switching the lamp voltage is also monitored, i.e. the threshold switching is also triggered by an excessive lamp voltage.
  • This can be done by connecting a fraction of the lamp voltage to one Part of the voltage divider circuit is applied by a circuit that is designed so that the lamp voltage fraction of the applied Fraction of the intermediate circuit voltage superimposed.
  • a connection point of the voltage divider circuit via a Trigger diode connected to a suitable point of the threshold circuit be so that the threshold switching on both Polarities of the DC voltage responds.
  • An embodiment of the circuit according to the invention provides before, the connection point of the trigger diode or a potential adjacent connection point via a lamp filament to connect to the voltage divider circuit and between this connection point of the trigger diode or a potential adjacent connection point and one of the poles of the DC link voltage as the base potential of the safety shutdown device or another suitable base potential to switch a resistor.
  • This resistance is so dimensioned so that when the lamp is removed from its socket or if the lamp filament breaks, the potential of the named Connection point to the potential or so far in the direction pulls to the potential of the pole so that the threshold circuit is triggered via the trigger diode.
  • the threshold circuit is a bistable multivibrator, such as a thyristor equivalent circuit with two transistors.
  • a discharge lamp is powered by a push-pull frequency generator operated with two transistors. Then can the safety shutdown device be constructed so that after their response via a shutdown transistor Control of one of the two transistors suppressed, for example the base of a bipolar transistor with low resistance to ground connects.
  • Fig. 1 there is an upper one in the double-lined frame Part RE1, RE2 of a voltage divider circuit RE1, RE2, R1 shown, the resistor RE1, a coupling capacitor C3 with a falling DC voltage UC3 in the event of a fault is connected in parallel.
  • RE1 is clear greater than the AC resistance of C3 at the operating frequency the lamp.
  • the voltage Umeß falling across the resistor R1 is when a threshold voltage UZ of a Zener diode is exceeded DZ1 a connection point of a bistable multivibrator in the form of a thyristor equivalent circuit of two Bipolar transistors supplied.
  • This toggle switch has one stable state in which both transistors are conducting, and another stable state in which both transistors do not lead.
  • the output signal line is drawn the base of an NPN turn-off transistor, not shown controlled so that it becomes conductive and the Base of a transistor, also not shown, the Lamp operating push-pull frequency generator with low resistance shorts to ground.
  • the flip-flop on the emitter side of the top Transistors supplied with voltage in a suitable manner, so that a separate power supply is unnecessary.
  • the circuit shown in Fig. 2 corresponds to that just described except for the double-framed additional Trigger diode D3 between the base of the upper transistor the flip-flop and a connection point between the resistor RE2 and the coupling capacitor C3 or here the Lamp filament.
  • the reason for the trigger diode is that the voltage divider circuit only one opposite the intermediate circuit voltage E. Charging or voltage UC3 on the coupling capacitor C3 into a trigger signal through the Zener diode DZ1 implemented because only then the measuring voltage Umeß increases becomes. With opposite charging of the coupling capacitor C3 the potential at the upper connection point drops the trigger diode D3, so that this then the potential at the Pull down the base of the upper flip-flop transistor and thus trigger the flip-flop in the conductive state can.
  • FIG. 3 shows the same circuit as FIG. 2, but additionally with a resistor R3 connected between the upper connection point of the trigger diode D3 and the lower pole of the intermediate circuit voltage E, here a "pulldown resistor".
  • R3 connected between the upper connection point of the trigger diode D3 and the lower pole of the intermediate circuit voltage E, here a "pulldown resistor”.
  • This is dimensioned such that it pulls the potential of its upper connection point in the direction of the potential of the lower pole of the intermediate circuit voltage E in the absence of a lamp, filament breakage or the like, ie it is significantly lower-impedance than RE2.
  • the flip-flop is triggered via the trigger diode D3 even if the filament breaks or the lamp is removed.
  • the last-described function of the circuit from FIG. 3 is particularly practical when a lamp, for example in a larger lighting system with many lamps, removed shall be. Then there is no need to switch off the whole lighting system, so that faster and with normal lighting can be worked.
