Definitions
- the present invention relates to a magnetic component for an electrical and/or electronic assembly.
- Zero voltage switching Today's switched-mode power supplies, for example active rectifier stages (so-called power factor correction stages or PFC stages), are operated with high switching frequencies of a few 100 kHz in order to reduce the size of the passive components. In order to ensure high efficiency at the same time, the power semiconductors are switched on softly. This is known as “zero voltage switching” (ZVS).
- ZVS zero voltage switching
- the control of such systems while ensuring the ZVS at the same time represents a major technical challenge.
- the detection of the current zero crossing "zero current detection” (ZCD) of the inductor current has proven to be particularly helpful in order to meet both requirements at the same time.
- Classic current measurement methods such as current measurement shunts can only be used to a very limited extent for this purpose due to the low measurement voltages and the existing interference.
- CH 701847 A2 shows an alternative approach for detecting the current zero crossing.
- a highly permeable core is wound with two windings. On the one hand the useful current to be measured and on the other hand a sense winding. The core is not saturated in the area of the current zero crossing and the component behaves like a classic transformer, ie a translated output voltage is detected at the sense winding. As soon as the current in the load circuit increases, the core material saturates and the voltage across the sense winding collapses. About this pulse in the area of the current zero crossing, a Signal with very high interference immunity can be generated. A suitable evaluation circuit makes it possible to further process this pulse directly in the control hardware.
- a magnetic component for an electrical and/or electronic assembly includes a magnetic core and an electrical conductor surrounding the magnetic core.
- a bridge element is arranged on the magnetic core, with at least part of the bridge element being surrounded by an electrical measuring conductor, the electrical measuring conductor being designed for measuring a current zero crossing in the electrical conductor surrounding the magnetic core.
- the magnetic component according to the invention has the advantage that no separate component is required for measuring the current zero crossing, which must have two galvanically isolated windings.
- a ZCD transformer is integrated into the existing magnetic component, for example in an inductor or a transformer.
- an air gap of the magnetic component which can be designed as a choke or as a transformer, for example, is bridged with a highly permeable bridge element.
- An electrical measuring conductor, a so-called sense winding, is wound around the highly permeable bridge element.
- the air gap of the magnetic core can be a discrete gap in the magnetic core of the magnetic component, through which the magnetic core is interrupted.
- the air gap can also be a non-discrete so-called distributed air gap.
- the magnetic flux flows at least partially over the bridge element and not over the air gap. Due to the change in the magnetic flux in the bridge element, a voltage is induced in the electrical measuring conductor in this phase. There is a characteristic voltage peak at current zero crossing. If the magnetic flux increases, the bridge element saturates and the magnetic flux flows across the air gap of the magnetic core. As a result, there is only a small or no further change in the magnetic flux in the bridge element and no or only a very small voltage is induced in the electrical measuring conductor. The current zero crossing can be detected as a voltage peak on the electrical measuring conductor. The voltage signal induced in the electrical measuring conductor can be transmitted to the control unit of the electronics by means of a suitable evaluation circuit.
- the magnetic component according to the invention represents an advantageously compact component in which the electrical measuring conductor for detecting the zero crossing is integrated.
- the integration of the electrical measuring conductor into the magnetic component according to the invention means that no additional winding of the electrical conductor is required.
- the added bridge element has only a very small volume, so that the space required and the costs are significantly reduced.
- the magnetic component according to the invention is advantageously efficient since core losses are greatly reduced compared to the prior art.
- the magnetic component according to the invention advantageously avoids high core losses, which arise in particular when used in today's PFC stages.
- the PFC stages are operated at very high switching frequencies, while at the same time the material is operated bidirectionally down to deep saturation. Due to the reduced core losses in comparison to the prior art, less heat is generated in the magnetic component, so that advantageously less heat has to be dissipated from the magnetic component and less installation space is therefore required overall.
- the material of the bridge element has a relative magnetic permeability number of more than 500, in particular more than 1000, preferably in particular more than 2000.
- the air gap of the magnetic component are advantageously well bridged by the bridge element, so that with small load currents in the electrical conductor, the magnetic flux flows through the bridge element and not via the air gap of the magnetic component.
- a voltage is also induced in the electrical measuring conductor (sense winding). The result is the voltage peak that is characteristic of the current zero crossing. If the magnetic flux increases, the bridge element saturates and the magnetic flux flows across the air gap. As a result, little or no voltage is induced in the electrical measuring conductor (sense winding).
- the magnetic core has an axial direction and a central annular opening, and a first annular surface and a second annular surface facing away from the first annular surface are formed on the magnetic core.
- At least one gap is formed in the magnetic core, the gap in the magnetic core being bridged by the bridge element, the electrical measuring conductor surrounding at least part of the bridge element in the region of the gap.
- the electrical measuring conductor can advantageously be arranged well in the area of the gap and run at least partially in the gap. Due to the discrete gap in the magnetic core, a simple flat plate or foil can be used as a bridge element, which can be arranged across the gap on the magnetic core. The gap can then offer sufficient space for one or more windings of the electrical measuring wire around the bridge element. At the same time, the bridge element remains in contact with the magnetic core on both sides of the gap.
- the gap extends in the axial direction and in a radial direction perpendicular to the axial direction.
- the bridge element is arranged on the magnetic core on the first annular surface of the magnetic core, in particular on the first annular surface of the magnetic core rests.
- the bridging element can advantageously be well adapted, for example, to the first annular surface and bear against it over a large area, so that an advantageously large-area contact is produced between the magnetic core and the bridging element.
- the bridge element is designed as a film or as a small plate.
- a bridge element designed in this way represents an advantageously simple and cost-effective component that is suitable for detecting the current zero crossing.
- a recess is formed in the bridge element in the region of the gap, with the electrical measuring conductor running through the recess in the bridge element.
- the bridge element is advantageously tapered in the area of the recess.
- the recess divides the bridge element into two webs, for example.
- the electrical measuring conductor is wound around one of the webs and runs through the recess in the bridge element and thus forms the sense winding for detecting the current zero crossing.
- the second web can only serve for mechanical stability and have no electromagnetic function.
- the bridge element is tapered in the area in which it is surrounded by the electrical measuring conductor.
- the strength of the narrowing of the bridge element, together with the number of turns of the electrical measuring conductor, can be used to set how large the voltage signal will be at the measuring conductor and how wide the resulting pulse will be.
- An advantageously narrow signal can be generated in the measuring conductor by a tapered bridge element and the current zero crossing can thus advantageously be determined precisely.
- the magnetic component also comprises a further electrical conductor surrounding the magnetic core, with the magnetic core forming a transformer together with the electrical conductor and the further electrical conductor.
- the zero crossing of the magnetizing current can advantageously also be determined on a transformer by means of the measuring conductor.
- the magnetic core thus includes more than one load-bearing winding, namely in addition to the first electrical conductor at least one second electrical conductor. In suitable topologies, this can also bring advantages in the ZVS and in the control.
- FIG. 3 shows a longitudinal section through the exemplary embodiment of the magnetic component in a plane parallel to the axial direction
- FIG. 4 shows a cross section through the exemplary embodiment of the magnetic component in a plane perpendicular to the axial direction at the level of the magnet core
- FIG. 5 shows a further cross section through the exemplary embodiment of the magnetic component in a plane perpendicular to the axial direction at the level of the bridge element
- FIG. 6 shows an exemplary measurement curve of the measurement of the current zero crossing on the magnetic component 1.
- the magnetic component 1 comprises a magnetic core 10 and at least one electrical conductor 6 surrounding the magnetic core 10.
- the conductor 6 is wound around the magnetic core 10. If an electrical conductor 6 is wound around the magnet core 10, the magnetic component 1 can be a choke.
- the magnetic component 1 can also include another electrical conductor, not shown in the figures, which surrounds the magnetic core 10. The additional electrical conductor can be wound onto the magnet core 10 . If a further electrical conductor is provided in addition to the first electrical conductor 6, the magnetic component 1 can be designed as a transformer.
- the magnetic core 10 is designed, for example, in the form of a ring or toroid. As in the exemplary embodiment, the ring can be designed as a circular ring. However, the ring can also be designed as an angular ring, for example.
- the magnetic core 10 has an axial direction A.
- the magnet core 10 has a central annular opening 18 .
- a first annular surface 11 and a second annular surface 12 are formed on the magnetic core 10 .
- the first annular surface 11 faces away from the second annular surface 12 .
- the annular surfaces 11, 12 extend annularly around the central annular opening 18 around. In the embodiment shown in the figures, the annular surfaces 11 , 12 are interrupted by four gaps 15 .
- the annular surfaces 11, 12 thus do not completely encircle the central annular opening 18, but instead have interruptions at the gaps 15.
- the annular surfaces 11, 12 are spaced from each other in the axial direction A by a height of the magnetic core 10.
- FIG. In this exemplary embodiment, the annular surfaces 11, 12 are flat and, for example, are designed to be plane-parallel to one another.
- the annular surfaces 11, 12 are congruent with each other.
- the annular surfaces 11, 12 delimit the toroidal magnetic core 10 in the axial direction A.
- the magnetic core 10 can be made of ferrite, for example, as a cut strip core or sheet iron.
- the magnetic core 10 has a low effective permeability. As shown in the figures, the permeability of the magnetic core 10 may be reduced by one or more discrete gaps 15.
- the gaps 15 in the magnetic core 10 form air gaps of the magnetic core 10, which reduce the permeability of the magnetic core 10. In the exemplary embodiment illustrated in the figures, four gaps 15 are formed in the magnet core 10 .
- the gaps 15 interrupt the magnetic core 10. In this exemplary embodiment, the gaps 15 extend over an area in the axial direction A and in each case in a radial direction R perpendicular to the axial direction A.
- the permeability of the magnetic core 10 can also be reduced, for example, by a so-called distributed air gap, which is not configured as a discrete gap 15 in the magnetic core 10 as in the exemplary embodiment illustrated in the figures.
- a distributed air gap magnetic core 10 the permeability is intrinsically low.
- Such a magnetic core 10 can be designed, for example, as a powder core, which consists of a large number of separate ferromagnetic particles and thus forms a distributed air gap.
- the distributed air gap magnetic core may be formed of Sendust, MPP, carbonyl iron powder, or iron powder, for example.
- the magnetic component 1 also includes an electrical conductor 6.
- the electrical conductor 6 is wound onto the magnetic core 10, for example, and surrounds the magnetic core 10 in one or more turns.
- the electrical conductor 6 can form, for example, a toroidal coil together with the magnet core 10, which is also referred to, for example, as a toroidal coil or ring coil.
- the electrical conductor 6 is designed, for example, as an electrically conductive wire, for example as an insulated copper wire.
- the current flows through the electrical conductor 6 , the current zero crossing of which is determined by means of the bridge element 20 and the electrical measuring conductor 30 .
- the current zero crossing designates the point in time at which the current I through the electrical conductor 6 changes sign. A zero point with a change of sign in the current I is therefore referred to as a current zero crossing.
- the magnetic component 1 can comprise, in addition to the electrical conductor 6, a further electrical conductor not shown in the figures.
- the additional electrical conductor can also be wound onto the magnetic core 10, for example, and thereby surround the magnetic core 10 in one or more turns.
- the further electrical conductor is also designed, for example, as an electrically conductive wire, for example as an insulated copper wire.
- the magnet core 10, the electrical conductor 6 and the further electrical conductor can together form a transformer.
- the magnetic component 1 further comprises a bridge element 20 and an electrical measuring conductor 3.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 surrounds part of the Bridge element 20.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 is wound around the part of the bridge element 20.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 surrounds the part of the bridge element 20 in a winding.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 can also surround the part of the bridge element 20 in several windings. If the magnetic flux in the bridge element 20 changes, a voltage is induced in the electrical measuring conductor 30 .
- the bridge element 20 is arranged on the magnet core 10 .
- the bridge element 30 bears directly or indirectly on the magnet core 10 , for example.
- the bridging element 20 offers an additional flux path for the magnetic flux and thus bridges the air gap of the magnetic core 10.
- the bridging element 20 thus forms a flux bypass for the magnetic flux that forms in the electrical line 6 when there is a load current.
- the bridging element 20 has a high permeability, so that the air gap of the magnetic core 10 can be bridged by means of the bridging element 20 .
- the bridge element 20 is formed, for example, from a material with a relative magnetic permeability number of more than 500, in particular more than 1000, preferably in particular more than 2000.
- the bridge element 20 can be formed from ferrite, for example.
- the bridge element 20 can be designed, for example, as a film or as a small plate.
- the cross section of the bridge element 20 is typically small compared to the cross section of the magnetic core 10.
- the thickness of the bridge element 20 in the axial direction A can be less than 1.5 mm, for example, 1 mm.
- the geometric dimensions of the bridge element 20 must ensure suitable mechanical stability.
- the cross-sectional area of the part of the bridge element 20 surrounded by the electrical measuring conductor 30, together with the number of turns of the electrical measuring conductor 30, can be used to set how large the voltage signal will be at the electrical measuring conductor 30 and how wide the resulting pulse will be.
- the bridge element 20 is arranged on the magnetic core 10 in such a way that the gap 15 in the toroidal core 10 passes through the Bridge element 20 is bridged.
- the bridge element 20 has a first contact area 21 , a second contact area 22 and a bridge area 23 arranged between the first contact area 21 and the second contact area 22 .
- the first contact area 21 and the second contact area 22 rest on the magnet core 10 .
- the bridge area 23 of the bridge element 20 is arranged in the area of the gap 15 and does not rest on the magnet core 20 .
- the bridging area 23 of the bridging element 20 extends from the first contact area 21 across the gap 15 to the second contact area 22.
- the bridging element 20 thus connects the two partial areas of the magnetic core 10 separated by the gap 15 to one another.
- the bridge element 20 extends, for example, in a direction perpendicular to the radial direction R and perpendicular to the axial direction A across the gap 15.
- the shape of the bridge element 20 can be adapted to the shape of the magnet core 10 .
- the bridge element 20 is also designed in the form of a ring segment.
- the bridging element 20 can advantageously be placed well on the magnet core 10, for example on the first annular surface 11, and the contact areas 21, 22 of the bridging element are in large-area contact with the first annular surface 11.
- the bridge element 20 can be tapered in the area in which it bridges the gap 15 .
- the bridge area 23 thus has a tapered cross section compared to the first contact area 21 and/or the second contact area 22 .
- the bridge element 20 is arranged on the magnetic core 10 in such a way that the area with the narrowing of the cross section lies exactly above the gap 15 .
- a recess 25 is formed in the bridge element 20 .
- the recess 25 runs in the axial direction A through the bridge element 20 .
- the recess 25 separates the bridge area 23 of the bridge element 20 into two webs 26 .
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 runs through the recess 25 .
- the measuring conductor 30 runs through the recess 25 in such a way that the electrical measuring conductor 30 is wound around one of the webs 26 and this thus surrounds.
- the bridge element 20 can also have a plurality of recesses 25 and webs 26 . However, the bridge element 20 can also have no recess 25 .
- the bridge element 20 is arranged on the first annular surface 11 of the magnet core 10 .
- the bridge element 20 and thus the additional flux path can be arranged on all sides of the magnet core 10 .
- the impedance of the additional path formed by the bridge element is in the order of magnitude of the air gap impedance. This ensures that, in the case of small currents, a significant proportion of the flux flows via the additional path in the bridge element 20 and a significant signal can therefore be generated.
- the magnet core 10 and the bridge element 20 can be manufactured in the same operation, for example when the magnet core 10 is pressed. In such an embodiment, the magnetic core 10 is formed in one piece with the bridge element 20 . In this way, the assembly costs of the bridge element 20 on the magnetic core 10 can advantageously be saved and the magnetic component 1 can advantageously be designed to be compact and stable.
- a highly permeable bridge element 20 with an electrical Measuring line 30 can be arranged.
- the magnetic flux will flow through the highly permeable bridge element 20 for small load currents and thus generate a voltage in the electrical measuring conductor 30, the so-called sense voltage. Once the bridge element 20 saturates, no more voltage is induced in the electrical measuring lead.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 surrounds the bridge element 20.
- the measuring conductor 30 is wound around part of the bridge element 20, for example.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 can be wound around the part of the bridge element 20 in one turn.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 can also be wound around the part of the bridge element 20 in several turns.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 is in the area of the gap 15 arranged.
- the measuring conductor 30 surrounds the part of the bridge element 20 in the area of the gap where the bridge element 20 bridges the gap 15 in the magnet core 10 .
- the measuring conductor 30 is wound around the part of the bridge element 20 in this area.
- the measuring conductor can be partially arranged in the gap 15 .
- the measuring conductor 30 can be arranged, in particular wound, through a recess 25 around a part of the bridge element 20 , in particular around a web 26 of the bridge element 20 .
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 is in the form of an electrically conductive wire and can be in the form of an insulated copper wire, for example.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 is also referred to as a sense winding, for example.
- the electrical measuring conductor 30 is designed to measure a current zero crossing in the electrical conductor 6 surrounding the toroidal core 10 .
- the magnetic flux flows at least partially via the bridge element 20 and not via the air gap due to the smaller magnetic impedance. Due to the change in the magnetic flux in the bridge element 20, a voltage is induced in the electrical measuring conductor 30 in this phase. The result is the characteristic voltage peak when the current passes through zero. If the magnetic flux increases, the bridge element 20 saturates and the magnetic flux flows across the air gap of the magnetic core 10.
- the voltage signal induced in the electrical measuring conductor 30 can be transmitted to the control unit of the electronics by means of a suitable evaluation circuit.
- the 6 shows an exemplary measurement curve of the current zero crossing on the magnetic component 1, in which a square-wave voltage UL was applied to the electrical conductor 6 wound around the magnetic core 1 and the voltage UM was measured at the electrical measuring line 30 wound around the bridge element 20.
- the current I in the electrical conductor 6 was measured.
- the current l is alternating, i.e. it changes the direction of the current and alternately assumes positive and negative values.
- the current zero crossing denotes the point in time at which the current I through the electrical conductor 6 changes sign.
- the voltage UM on the electrical measuring line 30 shows the characteristic peak in the area of the zero crossing of the current I.
- further exemplary embodiments and mixed forms of the exemplary embodiments shown are also possible.
