Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a driver circuitry for an electronic control unit for irrigation systems, which is adapted to control AC solenoid electrovalves and DC bistable solenoid electrovalves.
  • Irrigation systems for broad areas such as gardens, parks, golf courses etc. include a plurality of electrovalves intended to start and interrupt the supply of water to a plurality of irrigation devices distributed at appropriate positions in the areas to be irrigated.
  • control units may be one or more for each irrigation system and may be distributed at different positions, even far from one another, each being dedicated to the control of a respective plurality of electrovalves.
  • control units may be one or more for each irrigation system and may be distributed at different positions, even far from one another, each being dedicated to the control of a respective plurality of electrovalves.
  • the remote programming thereof is usually provided by means of a single PC which may be connected in different manners.
  • the electrovalves used in irrigation systems may include AC solenoids or DC solenoids, in this case of the bistable type.
  • Each type has its advantages and drawbacks and it is usually the installer who decides which one is to be used depending on the cost, on the electric power available, on the operation safety and so on.
  • control units are selected depending on the type of solenoid employed, even if control units are known which allow to switch from one to the other of two different operating conditions, for AC solenoids and for DC bistable solenoids.
  • a driver circuitry for an electronic control unit characterised in that it includes a first circuit for the power supply of an AC solenoid, a second circuit for the reversible polarity power supply of a DC bistable solenoid, an input terminal for said first circuit which may be connected to an AC voltage source, an output terminal for said first circuit to which a common terminal of the solenoid may be connected, an input terminal for said second circuit which may be connected to a DC voltage source as an alternative to said first circuit input terminal, an output terminal for said second circuit to which said common terminal of the solenoid may be connected as an alternative, a control device for the driver current of the solenoid interposed between a second terminal of the solenoid and ground and a microprocessor dedicated to the control of said control device depending on the AC or DC voltage that may be detected at said input terminals.
  • the same control unit is allowed to drive an AC solenoid or a DC bistable solenoid by simply connecting the common terminal of the solenoid to the output terminal of the first or second power supply circuit.
  • microprocessor which detects the type of voltage applied and accordingly controls the driving of the control device of the solenoid.
  • a selector may be included providing the microprocessor with information about the operating mode.
  • the above said circuitry includes a first circuit CT1 adapted to supply AC current and a second circuit CT2 adapted to supply reversible polarity DC current.
  • An AC voltage Vac is applied to an input terminal 1 of the circuit CT1, the AC voltage Vac occurring again at an output terminal 3 of the same circuit, whereas a DC voltage +Vdc is applied to an input terminal 2 of the circuit CT2, the DC voltage +Vdc occurring again with the same polarity or with an inverted polarity at an output terminal 4 of the circuit CT2.
  • the circuitry in Figure 1 also includes a driver device for the solenoid L, which consists of a triac T provided with a control gate G in turn controlled by an appropriately programmed microprocessor.
  • the solenoid L has a first terminal or common terminal 5 and a second terminal or output terminal 6, the first of which may be connected to the output terminal 3 of the circuit CT1 if the solenoid L is of the AC type and to the output terminal 4 of the circuit CT2 if the solenoid L is of the DC bistable type, whereas the second terminal is connected in any case to the input terminal 7 of the triac T, the output terminal 8 of which is grounded.
  • control unit always has the possibility of driving the solenoid of the electrovalve to which it is connected, whether the solenoid employed is of the DC bistable type or of the AC type.
  • the microprocessor M may be allowed to detect the type of power supply (AC or DC current) and accordingly drive the gate of the triac T.
  • FIG. 2 shows a more detailed example of the circuitry according to the present invention, in which the circuit CT1 consists of a simple lead powered by a voltage Vac.
  • the circuit CT2 instead includes a step-up voltage transformer TM, the secondary of which is provided with a central tap 30 to the ground potential.
  • the primary of the transformer M is connected to an inlet circuit which includes a Zener diode Z1, a transistor Q1, a resistor R1 and a capacitor C1 and is supplied to the clamp P with a variable duty-cycle, square wave voltage Vp, whereas the secondary provides the simultaneous charge of the capacitors Con and Coff through the diodes D1 and D2 connected to one another by means of a Zener diode Z2.
  • the clamp Pon is connected through a resistor R4 to the base of a transistor Q2 of the NPN type, which has the source connected to ground, as well as to the base of the same transistor by means of a resistor R5, and the collector connected by means of the resistors R3 and R2 to the source of a transistor Q1 of the PNP type which is interposed between the capacitor Con and the terminal Vdc and has the base connected to an intermediate node between the resistors R2 and R3.
  • the clamp Poff is in turn connected through a resistor R8 to the base of a transistor Q4 of the PNP type, which has the collector connected to ground, as well as to the base of the same transistor by means of a resistor R9, and the source connected by means of resistors R7 and R6 to the source of a transistor Q3 of the NPN type which is interposed between the capacitor Coff and the terminal Vdc and has the base connected to an intermediate node between the resistors R6 and R7.
  • the capacitor Con charged with +Vdc, may discharge on the solenoid L at the same time as the enabling of the gate G of the triac T, thus activating the solenoid itself.
  • the capacitor Coff By enabling Poff, the capacitor Coff, charged with -Vdc, may discharge on the solenoid L at the same time as the enabling of the gate G of the triac T, thus deactivating the solenoid itself.
  • the circuit with the transformer in figure 2 halves the time otherwise needed for the control of the solenoid with the inverter circuit.
