Zur Stromversorgung verschiedener Wechselstrommotoren, die mit unterschiedlichen bzw. variablen Drehzahlen laufen, wird aus einem Wechselspannungsnetz elektrische Energie über einen Gleichrichter in einen Gleichspannungs-Zwischenkreis eingespeist. Eingangsseitig von Wechselrichtern, die mit den Elektromotoren verbunden sind, wird elektrische Energie konstanter Spannung zur Verfügung gestellt, aus dem erwähnten Gleichspannungs-Zwischenkreis. Die elektrischen Antriebe dienen für verschiedene Funktionen in der Spinnmaschine, beispielsweise zum Antrieb von Spinnspindeln, oder zur Betätigung eines Ringbankantriebs, oder für den Antrieb eines Streckwerks.Such a machine is used for example in the DE 39 004 08 A1 described. To power different AC motors that run at different or variable speeds, electrical energy is fed from an AC voltage network via a rectifier in a DC link. On the input side of inverters, which are connected to the electric motors, electrical energy of constant voltage is provided, from the mentioned DC link. The electric drives are used for various functions in the spinning machine, for example for driving spinning spindles, or for operating a ring rail drive, or for driving a drafting system.

In der DE 198 36 168 A1 ist eine Spindelanordnung beschrieben, bei der ein Elektronik-Motor als Gleichstrommotor mit elektrischer Kommutierung dargestellt ist. Der Motor weist Mittel zum Erkennen eines Lastabwurfs, oder einer zu geringen Belastung, beispielsweise nach einem Fadenbruch, und Mittel zur automatischen Abschaltung und zur Meldung einer Veränderung des Betriebszustandes an eine zentrale Steuerung auf.In the DE 198 36 168 A1 a spindle assembly is described in which an electronic motor is shown as a DC motor with electrical commutation. The motor has means for detecting a load shedding, or too little stress, for example after a yarn breakage, and means for automatic shutdown and for reporting a change in the operating state to a central control.

In der DE 41 427 07 wird ebenfalls ein einzelmotorischer Antrieb für Spindeln einer Spinnereimaschine behandelt. Aus der darin erwähnten DE 34 211 04 A1 sei bekannt, dass bei kollektorlosen Gleichstrommotoren als feststehend angebrachte Drehstellungsdetektoren auch Hallsensoren, die durch Permanentmagnete beeinflusst werden, einsetzbar sind.In the DE 41 427 07 Also, a single-motor drive for spindles of a spinning machine is treated. From the mentioned therein DE 34 211 04 A1 It is known that in brushless DC motors as a fixed mounted rotational position detectors and Hall sensors that are influenced by permanent magnets, can be used.

Es wird auch die Möglichkeit einer Drehstellungsdetektion des Rotors mit mindestens zwei Hallsensoren erwähnt. Aus diesen Drehstellungssignalen ist auch die Drehzahl der Spindel ableitbar. In der DE 41 427 07 C1 ist ein Asynchron-Motor beschrieben, der die erwähnten oder wenigstens einen der erwähnten Hall-Sensoren aufweist.It also mentions the possibility of rotational position detection of the rotor with at least two Hall sensors. From these rotational position signals and the rotational speed of the spindle can be derived.

Da in einer Spinnmaschine zahlreiche sehr unterschiedlich ausgelegte Elektromotoren Verwendung finden, muss bei der Auslegung der Stromversorgung auf die individuellen Anforderungen der einzelnen Motoren besonderer Wert gelegt werden.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt als wesentliche Erkenntnis zugrunde, dass ein uniformes Stromnetz innerhalb der Spinnmaschine nicht den unterschiedlichen Anforderungen gerecht werden kann.
Since many very differently designed electric motors are used in a spinning machine, particular importance must be attached to the individual requirements of the individual motors when designing the power supply.
The present invention is based on the essential finding that a uniform power network within the spinning machine can not meet the different requirements.

Demnach besteht die Aufgabe, innerhalb der Spinnmaschine oder auch innerhalb einer Spinnerei die Energieversorgung so zu gestalten, dass je nach Motortyp ideale Spannungsverhältnisse gegeben sind.Accordingly, there is the task within the spinning machine or even within a spinning mill to design the power supply so that, depending on the engine type ideal voltage conditions are given.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is solved by the features of the characterizing part of independent claim 1.

Insbesondere ist an der Spinnmaschine an die Netzklemmen (10) des Wechselspannungsnetzes, insbesondere Drehspannungsnetzes, je eine Primärwicklung angeschlossen, und an jede Primärwicklung sind mindestens zwei Sekundärwicklungen von sekundären Wechselspannungs- bzw. Drehspannungsnetzen angeschlossen sind, an welchen mindestens 2 Gleichrichtergruppen hängen.In particular, at the spinning machine to the power terminals (10) of the alternating voltage network, in particular three-voltage network, each connected a primary winding, and at least two secondary windings of secondary AC voltage or three-phase networks are connected to each primary winding, to which hang at least 2 rectifier groups.

Die Erfindung wird anhand der Fig. 1 und 2 in 2 Ausführungen nachfolgend im Detail beschrieben. Fig. 3 zeigt eine Schaltung, welche dazu geeignet ist, einen Gleichstrommotor auf Generatorbetrieb umzustellen.The invention is based on the Fig. 1 and 2 in 2 embodiments described in detail below. Fig. 3 shows a circuit which is adapted to convert a DC motor to generator operation.

In der Spinnmaschine oder in einer Spinnmaschinenanlage wird bzw. werden gemäss Fig. 1 aus einem Wechselspannungsnetz, beispielsweise 400 Volt Drehspannung, mit mindestens zwei Transformator-Sekundärwicklungen ein Wechselstrom bzw. Wechselströme mit niedrigerer Spannung erzeugt. Dabei ist an die Netzklemmen 10 des Wechselspannungsnetzes, insbesondere Drehspannungsnetzes, je eine Primärwicklung angeschlossen, und an jede Primärwicklung sind mindestens zwei Sekundärwicklungen eines sekundären Wechselspannungs- bzw. Drehspannungs-netzes angeschlossen. Die Sekundärwicklungen liefern über Gleichrichter Energie in mindestens zwei Gleichspannungsnetze, wobei jedes Gleichspannungsnetz mehrere oder eine Vielzahl von Motoren mit elektrischer Energie beliefert. Beispielsweise werden Spindelmotoren einer Spinnmaschine auf diese Weise mit einem Gleichstrom einer Spannung von 270 Volt versorgt. Dadurch, dass die Gleichspannungsnetze zusammen geschlossen werden können, kann auch Gleichstrom einer Spannung geliefert werden, die der Summe der Spannungen der einzelnen Gleichspannungsnetze entspricht. Während also bei dem erwähnten Beispiel die Spindelmotoren mit einer Gleichspannung von 270 Volt versorgt sind, können andere Stromabnehmer mit Gleichstrom einer Spannung von 540 Volt versorgt werden, wenn zwei Gleich-spannungsnetze von je 270 Volt vorhanden sind, und während wie erwähnt Gleichstrommotoren über Steuergeräte mit Gleichstrom versorgt werden, können zur Stromversorgung anderer Motoren, beispielsweise Synchronmotoren, Wechselrichter eingangsseitig an die Gleichspannungsnetze angeschlossen werden, wobei vorzugsweise eine erhöhte Gleichspannung von 540 Volt für die Steuerung von Streckwerksmotoren aus den zusammengeschalteten Gleichspannungsnetzen zur Verfügung steht.In the spinning machine or in a spinning machine system is or will be Fig. 1 from an alternating voltage network, such as 400 volts three-phase voltage, with at least two transformer secondary windings generates an alternating current or alternating currents with lower voltage. In this case, a primary winding is connected to the power terminals 10 of the AC voltage network, in particular three-phase voltage network, and at least two secondary windings of a secondary AC voltage or three-phase voltage network are connected to each primary winding. The secondary windings supply power via rectifier in at least two DC voltage grids, each DC power supply to several or a plurality of motors with electrical energy. For example, spindle motors of a spinning machine are supplied in this way with a direct current of a voltage of 270 volts. As a result of the fact that the DC voltage networks can be closed together, it is also possible to supply direct current to a voltage which corresponds to the sum of the voltages of the individual DC voltage networks. Thus, while in the example mentioned, the spindle motors are supplied with a DC voltage of 270 volts, other pantographs can be supplied with direct current of a voltage of 540 volts, if two DC voltage grids of 270 volts are present, and as mentioned DC motors via controllers with DC power can be connected to the power supply of other motors, such as synchronous motors, inverters input side to the DC power grids, preferably an increased DC voltage of 540 volts for the control of drafting motors from the interconnected DC power supply is available.

Bei Stromausfall des Netzes an den Netzklemmen 10 kann im Generatorbetrieb der Gleichstrommotoren 26a, 26b ein Energieaustausch über die Gleichspannungsschienen 18, 20, 22 erfolgen, womit Energie an die Wechselrichter und die daran angeschlossenen Elektromotoren 30a, b zu Verfügung gestellt wird; dies ist für ein geordnetes Herunterfahren der Spinnmaschine bei Netzausfall erforderlich.In case of power failure of the network to the power terminals 10, in the generator mode of the DC motors 26a, 26b, an energy exchange via the DC busbars 18, 20, 22 are carried out, whereby energy to the inverters and the connected electric motors 30a, b is provided; This is necessary for an orderly shutdown of the spinning machine in case of power failure.

An Netzklemmen 10, welche beispielsweise mit einem 400 Volt - Drehspannungsnetz verbunden sind, sind über Sicherungen 12 Primärwicklungen 14b eines Transformators 14 angeschlossen. Wie in Figur 1 gezeigt können hier auch Klemmen 14a für Hilfsantriebe vorgesehen sein, welche mit Wechselspannung konstanter Amplitude betrieben werden. Insbesondere weist ein Transformator 14 drei Primärwicklungen 14b sowie sechs Sekundärwicklungen 14c bzw. 14d auf, wobei je eine der drei Primär-wicklungen 14b je einer ersten und zweiten Sekundärwicklung 14c bzw. 14d zugeordnet ist. Alternativ dazu könnten auch zwei parallele Transformatoren vorgesehen werden mit je 3 Primär - und drei Sekundär-Wicklungen. In diesem Fall gibt es abweichend von der Zeichnung 6 Primärwicklungen 14b.At power terminals 10, which are connected, for example, to a 400 volt three-phase voltage network, fuses 12 are primary windings 14b of a transformer 14 connected. As in FIG. 1 shown here terminals 14a may be provided for auxiliary drives, which are operated with alternating voltage of constant amplitude. In particular, a transformer 14 has three primary windings 14b and six secondary windings 14c and 14d, wherein one of the three primary windings 14b is associated with each of a first and second secondary winding 14c or 14d. Alternatively, two parallel transformers could be provided, each with 3 primary and 3 secondary windings. In this case, there are deviating from the drawing 6 primary windings 14b.

An den Sekundärwicklungen, jeweils drei Wicklungen 14c bzw. 14d, sind Gleichrichter 16a, b angeschlossen, so dass aus den sekundären Drehspannungsnetzen bzw. aus den ersten bzw. zweiten Sekundärwicklungen 14c bzw. 14d zunächst zwei Gleichspannungsnetze hervorgehen. Die erste Gleichrichtergruppe 16a speist in das erste Gleichspannungsnetz mit den Schienen 18 und 22, die zweite Gleichrichtergruppe 16b speist in das zweite Gleichspannungsnetz mit den Schienen 22 und 20 ein. Das erste Gleichspannungsnetz wird definiert als erste Gleichspannungsschiene 18 und dritte Gleichspannungsschiene 22, während das zweite Gleichspannungsnetz durch die dritte Gleichspannungsschiene 22 und die zweite Gleichspannungsschiene 20 gebildet wird, jeweils mit Stromabnehmern zwischen je 2 Schienen. Somit können an die verschiedenen Gleichspannungsschienen je nach Erfordernis verschiedene Stromabnehmer, in erster Linie Gleichstrommotoren 26a,b, angeschlossen werden. Während zwischen der ersten Gleichspannungsschiene 18 und der dritten Gleich-spannungsschiene 22 und der dritten Gleichspannungsschiene 22 und der zweiten Gleichspannungsschiene 20 jeweils ein Gleichstrom der Spannung 270 Volt zur Verfügung steht, kann aus einem dritten Gleichspannungsnetz bestehend aus der ersten Gleichspannungsschiene 18 und der zweiten Gleichspannungsschiene 20 eine Gleichspannung von 540 Volt an Stromabnehmer gelegt werden. Durch das erste Gleichspannungsnetz, gebildet aus der ersten Gleichspannungsschiene 18 und der dritten Gleichspannungsschiene 22, werden über Sicherungen 12 Gleichstrommotoren 26a gespeist, während aus dem zweiten Gleichspannungsnetz bestehend aus der dritten Gleichspannungsschiene 22 und der zweiten Gleichspannungsschiene 20 die Gleichstrommotoren 26b versorgt werden. Diese Motoren werden alle parallel geschaltet; es ist aber jeweils nur ein einziger Motor 26a,b mit Driver 24 dargestellt. In einer Spinnmaschine, insbesondere eine Ringspinnmaschine können mehrere hundert gleichartige Motoren 26a bzw. 26b Verwendung finden. Bei diesen Motoren, die für den Antrieb der Spindeln eingesetzt werden, handelt es sich vorzugsweise um bürstenlose Gleichstrommotoren mit elektronischer Kommutierung, wie in einer der einleitend erwähnten Patentpublikationen ausgeführt, mit Sensoren, insbesondere Hall-Sensoren.
Zur Ansteuerung der Motoren bedarf es für insbesondere jeden Motor 26a, b eines Kommutierungsgeräts bzw. Drivers 24.
At the secondary windings, each three windings 14c and 14d, rectifier 16a, b are connected so that emerge from the secondary three-phase networks or from the first and second secondary windings 14c and 14d initially two DC voltage networks. The first rectifier group 16a feeds into the first DC voltage network with the rails 18 and 22, the second rectifier group 16b feeds into the second DC voltage network with the rails 22 and 20. The first DC voltage network is defined as the first DC busbar 18 and third DC busbar 22, while the second DC voltage network is formed by the third DC busbar 22 and the second DC busbar 20, each with pantographs between each 2 rails. Thus, different current collectors, primarily DC motors 26a, b, can be connected to the various DC busbars as required. While between the first DC busbar 18 and the third DC busbar 22 and the third DC busbar 22 and the second DC busbar 20 each have a DC voltage of the voltage 270 volts, can from a third DC voltage network consisting of the first DC busbar 18 and the second DC busbar 20th a DC voltage of 540 volts are applied to pantograph. By the first DC voltage network, formed from the first DC busbar 18 and the third DC busbar 22, DC motors 26a are fed via fuses 12, while from the second DC network consisting of the third DC busbar 22 and the second DC busbar 20, the DC motors 26b are supplied. These motors are all connected in parallel; but it is only one engine at a time 26a, b shown with Driver 24. In a spinning machine, in particular a ring spinning machine, several hundred similar motors 26a and 26b can be used. These motors, which are used for driving the spindles, are preferably brushless DC motors with electronic commutation, as described in one of the introductory patent publications, with sensors, in particular Hall sensors.
For controlling the motors, in particular every motor 26a, b of a commutation device or driver 24 is required.

An das dritte Gleichspannungsnetz vorzugsweise mit der Gleichspannung 540 Volt bestehend aus der ersten Gleichspannungsschiene 18 und der zweiten Gleichspannungsschiene 20, können, wie aus Figur 1 hervorgeht, verschiedene Frequenzumrichter, bzw. Wechselrichter, 28a, 28b, 28c, 28d angeschlossen sein, jeweils über Sicherungen 12. Diese Wechselrichter erzeugen aus einem Strom mit Gleichspannung eine Wechselspannung beispielsweise einer maximalen Spannung und Frequenz von 400 Volt bzw. 200 Hertz oder mehr, wobei an diese Wechselrichter Elektromotoren 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d angeschlossen sind. Für die Steuerung der verschiedenen Wechselrichter und der Kommutierungsgeräte muss eine übergeordnete Steuerung 32 vorgesehen sein, in der das Spinnprogramm verarbeitet wird. Die Motoren 30a, b, c, d dienen zum Antrieb verschiedener Funktionsträger in der Spinnmaschine, beispielsweise der Streckwerkswellen oder eines Ringrahmen-hubantriebes. Für bestimmte Anwendungsfälle in einer Spinnmaschine ist es vorteilhaft, beispielsweise bei einem Dreizylinderstreckwerk mit zwei Verzugszonen, einzelne Zylinder mit Elektromotoren 30a, 30b, 30c anzutreiben. Bei langen Maschinen ist es vorteilhaft, über die Maschinenlänge verteilt mehrere Elektromotoren 30a, 30b, 30c mit Getrieben den Streckwerkszylindern zuzuordnen. Hier können weitere Antriebe wie Asynchron-, Synchron-, oder Reluktanzmotoren zum Einsatz kommen.To the third DC voltage network preferably with the DC voltage 540 volts consisting of the first DC busbar 18 and the second DC busbar 20, as can be seen from FIG. 1 These inverters generate from a current with DC voltage an AC voltage, for example, a maximum voltage and frequency of 400 volts or 200 hertz or more, wherein electric motors 30a, 30b, 30c, 30d are connected to these inverters. To control the various inverters and the commutation devices, a higher-level controller 32 must be provided, in which the spinning program is processed. The motors 30a, b, c, d are used to drive various function carriers in the spinning machine, for example, the drafting shafts or a ring frame hubantriebes. For certain applications in a spinning machine, it is advantageous, for example, in a three-cylinder drafting system with two draft zones, to drive individual cylinders with electric motors 30a, 30b, 30c. In the case of long machines, it is advantageous to allocate a plurality of electric motors 30a, 30b, 30c with gears to the drafting unit cylinders distributed over the machine length. Here further drives such as asynchronous, synchronous or reluctance motors can be used.

Mit dem beschriebenen Energieversorgungskonzept ist es möglich, in Spinnmaschinen mit einer sehr grossen Anzahl von Spinnstellen die Spindelmotoren bei einem günstigen Wirkungsgrad zu betreiben.With the energy supply concept described, it is possible to operate the spindle motors at low efficiency in spinning machines with a very large number of spinning stations.

Figur 2 zeigt eine gegenüber der Ausführung in Figur 1 alternative Konzeption der maschineninternen Stromversorgung. An ein Wechselspannungsnetz ist über die Netzklemmen 10 ein Transformator 14 mit Mittelpunktabgriff angeschlossen, der auf der Sekundärseite eine Spannung von vorzugsweise 400 Volt (AC) zur Verfügung stellt. An der Sekundärseite ist ein Gleichrichter 16a angeschlossen, der eine Gleichstromversorgung mit einer Gleichspannung von 540 Volt ermöglicht. Weiter können Spannungen von 270 Volt gegen den Mittelpunkt des Transformators über die daran angeschlossene Gleichspannungsschiene 22 abgegriffen werden. Der Mittelpunkt des Transformators 14 dient dabei lediglich zur Potentialbestimmung; auf der Stromschiene 22 dürfen nur geringe Ausgleichsströme fliessen, was voraussetzt, dass die Motoren bzw. Motorengruppen 26a und 26b gleichmässig belastet werden. Die hauptsächlich stromführenden Leiter sind demnach die erste Gleichspannungsschiene 18 und die zweite Gleichspannungsschiene 20. Auch in dieser Variante sind an der Sekundärseite des Transformators Klemmen 14a für Hilfsantriebe vorgesehen. In Figur 2 sind nur insoweit Bezugszeichen eingefügt, als sich Unterschiede zu der Ausführung nach Figur 1 ergeben. FIG. 2 shows one opposite the execution in FIG. 1 alternative conception of the internal machine power supply. To an alternating voltage network is connected via the power terminals 10, a transformer 14 with center tap, which provides a voltage of preferably 400 volts (AC) on the secondary side. On the secondary side, a rectifier 16a is connected, which allows a DC power supply with a DC voltage of 540 volts. Further voltages of 270 volts can be tapped against the center of the transformer via the DC bus 22 connected thereto. The center of the transformer 14 serves only for potential determination; on the busbar 22 only small equalizing currents may flow, which requires that the motors or motor groups 26a and 26b be uniformly loaded. Accordingly, the mainly current-carrying conductors are the first DC voltage rail 18 and the second DC voltage rail 20. Also in this variant, terminals 14a for auxiliary drives are provided on the secondary side of the transformer. In FIG. 2 are only as far as reference signs are inserted, as differences to the execution after FIG. 1 result.

Zu einem geordneten Betrieb der Spinnmaschine ist es - wie auch bei der Ausführung nach Fig. 1 - erforderlich, dass die Kommutierungsgeräte bzw. Driver 24 sowie die Wechselrichter 28a, 28b an eine übergeordnete Steuerung 32 angeschlossen sind, die derart ausgebildet ist, dass sowohl für den normalen Spinnbetrieb, als auch für den Stromausfall bzw. Spannungsabfall die Drehzahlen der Motoren 26a, 26b, 30a, 30b nach einem vorgegebenen Drehzahl-Zeit-Programm gefahren werden können. Die übergeordnete Steuerung 32 der Gleichstrommotoren bzw. Gleichstrommotoren-Gruppen 26a,b ist so auszulegen, dass diese bei einem Netzausfall im Generatorbetrieb Strom in die Gleichspannungsschienen 18, 20, 22 liefern, und somit ein Energieaustausch zu den Wechselrichtern 28a, 28b, 28c ect. stattfinden kann.For an orderly operation of the spinning machine it is - as well as in the execution Fig. 1 required that the commutation devices or drivers 24 and the inverters 28a, 28b are connected to a higher-level controller 32, which is designed such that both for the normal spinning operation, as well as for the power failure or voltage drop, the rotational speeds of the motors 26a, 26b, 30a, 30b can be driven after a predetermined speed-time program. The higher-level controller 32 of the DC motors or DC motor groups 26a, b is designed so that they provide power in a DC power failure in the DC power rails 18, 20, 22, and thus an energy exchange to the inverters 28a, 28b, 28c ect. can take place.

Für die Steuerung der Kommutierungsgeräte bzw. Driver und anderer Elemente muss eine Gleichspannung vorzugsweise von 24 Volt DC bereitgestellt werden. An den einzelnen Motorgehäusen der Gleichstrommotoren 26a, 26b sind Ein/Ausschalter anzubringen. Insbesondere die Motoren 26a, b werden über einen BUS oder CanBUS, der an die zentrale Steuerung 32 angeschlossen ist, so geführt, dass bei einem wesentlichen Lastabfall, beispielsweise 20% infolge eines Fadenbruchs, oder bei Feststellung anderer Grenzwertüberschreitungen eine automatische Abschaltung eines Motors 26a erfolgt. Ein Netzausfall oder wesentliche Spannungseinbrüche wird oder werden von der zentralen Steuerung 32 detektiert, und es wird eine entsprechende Drehzahl- Sollwertabsenkung über einen BUS oder CanBUS an alle Driver 24 übermittelt. Dabei gehen die daran angeschlossenen Motoren 26a, b in den Generator-betrieb, wobei infolge der Drehzahlabsenkung die in den rotierenden Massen gespeicherte Energie in elektrische Energie umgewandelt wird, und den anderen Verbrauchern zugeführt wird. Die Drehzahlreduktion erfolgt dabei so, dass die Betriebsspannung von 270 Volt DC der Motoren 26a,b bis zum Erreichen des Stillstandes konstant bleibt. Bei einem kürzeren Netzausfall und wiederkehrendem Netz kann automatisch wieder auf die normale vorgegebene Betriebsdrehzahl des Spinn-programmes hochgefahren werden. Bei längerem Netzausfall werden alle Motoren 26a, 26b, 30a sowie die anderen Antriebe synchron auf Stillstand herabgefahren, wobei die Drehzahlen der Motoren 26a, 30a so geregelt werden, dass eine konstante Spannung an den Gleichspannungsschienen 18, 20, 22, mit anderen Worten am Greichstrom-zwischenkreis 18, 20 bzw. den Gleichspannungszwischenkreisen 18, 22 und 22, 20 anliegt.To control the commutation devices or drivers and other elements, a DC voltage preferably of 24 volts DC must be provided. At the individual motor housings of the DC motors 26a, 26b are on / off switch to install. In particular, the motors 26a, b are connected via a BUS or CanBUS, the is connected to the central controller 32, so guided that at a significant load drop, for example, 20% due to a thread break, or upon detection of other limit violations, an automatic shutdown of a motor 26a takes place. A power failure or substantial voltage dips is or are detected by the central controller 32, and a corresponding speed setpoint reduction is communicated to all drivers 24 via a BUS or CanBUS. In this case, the connected motors 26a, b go into the generator mode, as a result of the speed reduction, the stored energy in the rotating masses is converted into electrical energy, and the other consumers is supplied. The speed reduction is carried out so that the operating voltage of 270 volts DC of the motors 26a, b remains constant until reaching standstill. In the event of a shorter power failure and a recurring power supply, it is possible to automatically revert to the normal preset operating speed of the spinning program. In case of prolonged power failure all motors 26a, 26b, 30a and the other drives are synchronously reduced to a standstill, the speeds of the motors 26a, 30a are controlled so that a constant voltage across the DC busbars 18, 20, 22, in other words on Greichstrom -intermediate circuit 18, 20 and the DC voltage intermediate circuits 18, 22 and 22, 20 is applied.

Die übergeordnete Steuerung mit 24 V DC ist laut Fig. 1 über einen Spannungswandler 33 an ein 540 V -Gleichspannungsnetz, bzw. an die Schienen 18 und 20, angeschlossen. Parallel zu den Gleichrichtern 16a,b sind Kondensatoren zwischen den Schienen 18 bzw. 22 und 20.The higher-level controller with 24 V DC is loud Fig. 1 via a voltage converter 33 to a 540 V DC power supply, or to the rails 18 and 20, connected. Parallel to the rectifiers 16a, b are capacitors between the rails 18 and 22 and 20th

Die Motoren 26a,b können an Spinnspindeln und / oder Spinntrichtern montiert sein. Sie können ebenso wie andere Motoren 30a, b, c, d in die betreffenden Antriebe verschiedener Funktionsträger in der Spinnmaschine, insbesondere der Streckwerks-wellen oder eines Ringsrahmens, integriert sein. Bei einem Dreizylinderstreckwerk einer Spinnmaschine mit zwei Verzugszonen können einzelne Zylinder mit Elektromotoren 30a, 30b, 30c antreibbar sein; letztere können über die Maschinenlänge verteilt mit Getrieben an mehreren Stellen den Streckwerkszylindern zugeordnet sein.The motors 26a, b can be mounted on spinning spindles and / or spinning funnels. Like other motors 30a, b, c, d, they can be integrated in the respective drives of different function carriers in the spinning machine, in particular the drafting system shafts or a ring frame. In a three-cylinder drafting system of a spinning machine with two delay zones, individual cylinders with electric motors 30a, 30b, 30c can be driven; the latter can be distributed over the machine length distributed with gears in several places the drafting cylinders.

Bezüglich der Ausführung nach Fig. 2 ist festzuhalten, dass in einer in mehrere Sektionen aufgeteilten Spinnmaschine mehrere Transformatoren 14 an Netzklemmen 10 angeschlossen sein können, wobei sekundärseitig jedes Transformators 14 eine Gleichrichtergruppe 16a angeschlossen ist, mit einer Ausgangsspannung, die an zwei Gleichspannungsschienen 18, 20 anliegt, und wobei am Mittelpunkt jedes Trans-formators 14 eine weitere dritte Gleichspannungsschiene angeschlossen ist, und wobei zwischen der ersten Gleichspannungsschiene 18 und der dritten am Mittelpunkt des Transformators 14 anliegenden Gleichspannungsschiene 22 ein Gleichstrommotor bzw. eine Gleichstrommotorengruppe 26a angeschlossen ist, und zwischen der zweiten Gleichspannungsschiene 20 und der dritten Gleichspannungsschiene 22 ein weiterer Gleichstrommotor oder eine weitere Gleichstrommotorengruppe 26b gleicher Art angeschlossen ist. Es sind in diesem Fall weitere Motorengruppen je in einer Sektion vorhanden.Regarding the execution after Fig. 2 It should be noted that in a multi-section spinning machine, a plurality of transformers 14 may be connected to power terminals 10, on the secondary side of each transformer 14 is connected a rectifier group 16a having an output voltage applied to two DC bus bars 18, 20 and at the midpoint of each Trans-formators 14 is connected to a further third DC busbar, and wherein between the first DC busbar 18 and the third at the center of the transformer 14 adjacent DC rail 22, a DC motor or a DC motor group 26 a is connected, and between the second DC busbar 20 and the third DC busbar 22nd another DC motor or a further DC motor group 26b of the same kind is connected. In this case, there are further motor groups in each section.

Gemäss Fig. 3 liegt, wie auch in den Figuren 1 und 2 dargestellt, ein Gleichstrommotor 26a zwischen zwei Gleichspannungsschienen 18 und 22. Es sei angenommen, dass im normalen Spinnbetrieb (Motorbetrieb) an der Gleichspannungsschiene 18 eine positive Spannung anliegt, während die Gleichspannungsschiene 22 den Minuspol für den Motor 26a darstellt. Wenn der Motor 26a im Generatorbetrieb, also bei einer Rekuperation der kinetischen Energie in den Gleichspannungskreis 18, 22, Energie rückliefern soll, findet eine Umkehr des Potentials statt, sodass die Gleichspannungs-schiene 22 den Pluspol, und die Gleichspannungsschiene 18 den Minuspol darstellt.According to Fig. 3 lies, as well as in the FIGS. 1 and 2 a DC motor 26a between two DC rails 18 and 22. It is assumed that in normal spinning operation (motor operation) is applied to the DC bus 18, a positive voltage, while the DC busbar 22 is the negative pole for the motor 26a. If the motor 26a in the generator mode, that is to say in the case of a recuperation of the kinetic energy in the DC voltage circuit 18, 22, returns energy, a reversal of the potential takes place so that the DC rail 22 represents the positive pole and the DC voltage rail 18 represents the negative pole.

Die Ist-Drehzahl nIst wird am Motor 26a durch einen Sensor 26b, bevorzugt als Hall-Sensor ausgeführt, registriert und an den Eingang eines Drehzahlreglers 36 zurückgeführt. Es kann bei bürstenlosen Gleichstrommotoren mit elektronischer Kommutierung auch sensorlos mit einer Einrichtung zur Messung des Nulldurchgangs der freien Phase gefahren werden.The actual speed n Ist is registered at the motor 26a by a sensor 26b, preferably as a Hall sensor, and fed back to the input of a speed controller 36. With brushless DC motors with electronic commutation, it is also possible to use sensorless sensors with a device for measuring the zero crossing of the free phase.

Der Regler 36 erhält von einem von der zentralen Maschinensteuerung angesteuerten Drehzahlsteller 34 die Soll-Drehzahl nSoll. Vom Regler 36, bevorzugt als PI-Regler ausgeführt, wird auf Basis der Abweichung zwischen nIst und nSoll ein Sollwert für die Stromstärke ISoll ausgegeben. Der Ist-Wert des Motorstroms IIst wird zwischen dem Motor 26a und einem Stellelement 40 registriert und an den Eingang eines Stromreglers 38 zurückgeführt. Der Stromregler 38 führt auf Basis der Abweichung zwischen IIst und ISoll über einen Strombegrenzer 41 gemäss Fig. 3 ein Stellelement 40, welches bevorzugt als antiparalleler Transistor ausgeführt ist. Darin befinden sich zwei Dioden, welche wechselseitig auf Stromdurchgang im normalen Spinnbetrieb, bzw. im Generatorbetrieb des Motors umgestellt werden können. Dazu ist jeweils eine Diode seriell mit einem Schalter verbunden, wobei jeweils einer der Schalter geschlossen ist, so dass das Stellelement 40 wahlweise auf Stromdurchgang von der Gleichspannungsschiene 18 zur Gleichspannungsschiene 22, bzw. umgekehrt, umgeschaltet werden kann.The controller 36 receives from a controlled by the central machine control speed controller 34, the target speed n target . From the controller 36, preferably designed as a PI controller, based on the deviation between n actual and n setpoint, a setpoint value for the current intensity I setpoint is output. The actual value of the motor current I ist is between the motor Registered 26a and an actuator 40 and returned to the input of a current regulator 38. The current regulator 38 performs on the basis of the deviation between I Ist and I Soll via a current limiter 41 according to Fig. 3 an actuator 40, which is preferably designed as an antiparallel transistor. There are two diodes, which can be switched alternately to current passage in normal spinning operation, or in the generator mode of the engine. For this purpose, in each case a diode is connected in series with a switch, wherein in each case one of the switches is closed, so that the adjusting element 40 can be selectively switched to current passage from the DC busbar 18 to the DC busbar 22, or vice versa.

Wenn die übergeordnete Maschinensteuerung 32 einen Spannungsabfall oder Spannungsausfall der allgemeinen Stromversorgung, wie im Vorstehenden be-schrieben, feststellt, so gibt diese einen Steuerbefehl zur Umschaltung vom Motor- auf Generatorbetrieb an das Stellelement 40. Ferner stellt die Maschinensteuerung 32 im Generatorbetrieb über den Drehzahlsteller 34, welcher beispielsweise als Potentiometer ausgeführt ist, sicher, dass die generierte Spannung 42 gemäss einem vorgegebenen Sollwert konstant bleibt. Dies geschieht indem die Maschinensteuerung über den Drehzahlsteller 34 die Drehzahl der Spindel geführt absenkt. Ist die generierte Spannung zu klein, so wird die Drehzahl schneller abgeregelt. Ist die generierte Spannung zu gross, so wird die Drehzahl langsamer reduziert. Dies geschieht nach der sogenannten Drehzahlsteilheit. Da die Kopsmasse in Abhängigkeit seiner Garn-bewicklung bei einem Stromausfall nicht zum Voraus bekannt ist, kann die Drehzahl nicht gemäss einer vorgegebenen Drehzahlkurve abgeregelt werden, wie dies z. B. bei einer konstanten Drehmasse der Fall wäre, sondern muss wie oben beschrieben über einen Regelkreis abgesenkt werden. Auf diese Weise kann der Motor 26a laufend Energie zurückspeisen; diese zur Verwendung in anderen Abnehmern 28a, 30a.If the higher-level machine controller 32 detects a voltage drop or voltage failure of the general power supply, as described above, this gives a control command for switching from motor to generator operation to the actuator 40. Further, the machine controller 32 in the generator mode via the speed controller 34th , which is designed for example as a potentiometer, sure that the generated voltage 42 remains constant according to a predetermined setpoint. This happens by the machine control lowered via the speed controller 34, the speed of the spindle. If the generated voltage is too small, the speed is reduced faster. If the generated voltage is too high, the speed will be reduced more slowly. This happens after the so-called speed gradient. Since the Kopsmasse depending on its yarn winding in a power failure is not known in advance, the speed can not be adjusted according to a predetermined speed curve, as z. B. would be the case at a constant rotational mass, but must be lowered as described above via a control loop. In this way, the motor 26a can continuously feed back energy; these for use in other customers 28a, 30a.
