Definitions
- the invention relates to a switch arrangement with an on-load tap changer and a drive system for the on-load tap changer.
- On-load tap changers in tapped transformers are actuated using different means.
- the use of motors enables the on-load tap changers to be actuated easily.
- it is always necessary to monitor such motors since they represent a highly safety-relevant component. This applies above all to the switchover, since this takes place during operation of the tapped transformer. In extreme cases, operational disruptions can have serious technical and economic consequences.
- the invention proposes a switch arrangement comprising an on-load tap changer and a drive system for the on-load tap changer, the drive system including: a stepper motor with a motor shaft, the motor shaft being connected to the on-load tap changer; a feedback system set up for this purpose
- the improved concept is based on the idea of equipping the motor shaft of a stepper motor for driving an on-load tap changer with a feedback system that is able to record a value for a position of the motor shaft.
- the feedback system is able to query the position of the motor shaft after or during a switchover and make it available for checking. For this purpose, a feedback signal based on the position of the motor shaft is generated.
- the feedback system determines the actual position of the motor shaft and thus of the on-load tap changer.
- the feedback system has a magnet and a Hall sensor that are spatially separated from each other. This ensures that interference from the on-load tap-changer does not affect the Hall sensor.
- the implementation of the feedback system with a magnet and a Hall sensor is particularly cheap and still very reliable.
- the control device has a control unit with a motor driver.
- the control unit is connected to the motor driver and transmits to it how far and how fast the stepper motor or its motor shaft should rotate in order to actuate the on-load tap changer.
- the feedback system transmits the position of the motor shaft to the control unit by means of the feedback signal. If the position to be approached by the stepper motor or the position of the motor shaft does not match the position determined by the feedback system, the switch arrangement is shut down or moved to a safe position. Complete shutdown of the on-load tap-changer is defined as shutdown. When approaching or assuming a safe setting/position, the stepping motor and thus the on-load tap-changer are actuated again. An attempt is made to approach a specific winding tap in the selector. Thus, among other things, shutting down or starting up or assuming a safe position is to be regarded as influencing the operation of the switch arrangement by the control device within the meaning of the invention.
- the feedback system comprises a magnet and a Hall sensor, by means of which the value for the position of the motor shaft is determined.
- the Hall sensor can determine the angle through which the magnet and thus the motor shaft has rotated; this is the feedback signal. Furthermore, the Hall sensor can be used to determine the time in which the magnet or the motor shaft has rotated. This information can also be part of the feedback signal.
- the magnet is arranged on the motor shaft; the Hall sensor is located in close proximity to the magnet; the magnet is arranged at a first end of the motor shaft; the motor shaft is connected to the on-load tap changer at a second end opposite the first end.
- the Hall sensor and the magnet are always arranged in such a way that the Hall sensor can detect the changing position or setting of the magnet.
- a housing is provided with a partition wall; the partition separates a first area from a second area in the housing; the stepper motor with the motor shaft and the magnet are arranged in the first area and the Hall sensor is arranged in the second area.
- the housing of the switch assembly is preferably constructed of an electrically insulating material such as plastic or fiberglass reinforced plastic.
- the partition wall seals off the areas from each other.
- the control takes place in such a way that the control unit transmits to the motor driver how fast and by how many units the stepping motor should rotate.
- a 360° rotation of the drive shaft can be divided into 200, 400, 600 or 800 steps.
- values for the position of the motor shaft also includes those values of measured variables from which the position of the motor shaft can be clearly determined, possibly within a tolerance range.
- the control device can carry out a plausibility of the position determination or a comparison of the value and thereby increase safety or affect the operation of the switch arrangement.
- the drive system is used to drive a shaft of the on-load tap changer.
- This prompts the on-load tap changer, for example, to carry out one or more operations, for example switching between two winding taps of a piece of equipment or parts of the switching, such as load switching, selector actuation or preselector actuation.
- the motor shaft is connected directly or indirectly, in particular via one or more gears, to the on-load tap changer, in particular to the shaft of the on-load tap changer.
- the motor shaft is directly or indirectly connected to the magnet.
- a position, in particular an absolute position, of the motor shaft corresponds to a position, in particular a relative or absolute position, of the on-load tap changer. This means that the position of the motor shaft can be clearly deduced from the position of the on-load tap-changer, possibly within a tolerance range.
- affecting the operation includes have an effect on controlling, regulating, braking, accelerating or stopping the engine.
- control device comprises a control unit and a motor driver for the controlled or regulated energy supply of the stepping motor.
- the position of the motor shaft can be compared by the control device, for example, with the position to be approached by the stepper motor. In the event of a significant deviation, the control device can issue an error message or act on the switch arrangement.
- the magnet is positively connected to the motor shaft.
- the magnet is additionally connected to the motor shaft in a force-fitting or material-to-material manner, for example by means of an adhesive connection.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment of a switch arrangement according to the improved concept
- FIG. 2 shows a constructive embodiment of a switch arrangement according to the improved concept.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment of a switch arrangement 1 according to the improved concept, with an on-load tap changer 17 and a drive system 3 which is connected to the on-load tap changer 17 via a motor shaft 16 .
- the on-load tap changer 17 can be designed as an on-load tap changer with a diverter switch, selector, double turner, turner and/or preselector.
- the diverter switch of the on-load tap changer 17 can have mechanical switching contacts, vacuum interrupters or semiconductor switching elements.
- the on-load tap changer 17 can be designed as a hybrid on-load tap changer, in which case it then has both mechanical switching contacts and semiconductor switching elements in the diverter switch.
- the selector of a hybrid on-load tap changer has mechanical switching contacts.
- the drive system 3 includes a stepper motor 12 with a motor shaft 16.
- a control device 2 of the drive system 3 includes a motor driver 11 for the controlled or regulated energy supply of the stepper motor 12 and a control unit 10 for controlling the motor driver 11.
- the motor driver 11 can be used as a power unit or frequency converter be designed.
- the drive system 3 has a transmitter system 13 which serves as a feedback system 4 or is part of the feedback system 4 and is connected to the control unit 10 . Furthermore, the transmitter system 13 is partly directly or indirectly coupled to the motor shaft 16 .
- the encoder system 13 is set up to detect a value for a position, in particular an angular position, for example a relative or absolute angular position, of the motor shaft 16 .
- the encoder system 13 includes a magnet 14 and a Hall sensor 15, the magnet 14 being attached to the motor shaft 16, the position of which is clearly linked in connection with the Hall sensor 14.
- the attachment of the magnet 14 to the motor shaft 16 is implemented, for example, as a combination of a positive connection with a non-positive and/or material connection.
- the drive system 3 and in particular the control device 2, in particular the control unit 10 and/or the motor driver 11, is also set up to control and regulate the stepping motor.
- the control unit 10 transmits to the motor driver 11 how fast and how far the stepper motor 12 or its motor shaft 16 should move or rotate. This is done with the help of toothed soft iron rings inside the stepper motor, which contain the electromagnets of the stator and the permanent magnets of the rotor. These enable the motor shaft 16 of the stepper motor 12 to perform a corresponding step-by-step movement.
- the steps can be subdivided by suitable electronic control of the stator windings.
- the stepping motor 12 can divide a 360° rotation of the motor shaft into 200, 400 or 800 steps.
- the control device 2 and in particular the control unit 10 of the drive system 3 compares the actual position of the motor shaft 16 via the feedback system 4 with the position that the stepper motor 12 should have moved to.
- the feedback system 4 thus forms a type of safety device that checks whether the stepper motor 12 has actually moved to the correct position. If this is not the case, this is recognized as a fault in the drive system, and the on-load tap changer 17 is moved to a safe position/position and/or shut down.
- FIG. 2 shows a possible structural configuration or arrangement of the switching arrangement 1 according to the invention.
- the switching arrangement 1 has a housing 20 with a first area 20.1 and a second area 20.2. The areas 20.1, 20.2 are separated from one another by a partition 21.
- the magnet 14 is attached to a first end 16.1 of the motor shaft 16 and is arranged with the stepping motor 12 in the first area 20.1 of the housing 20.
- the Hall sensor 15 is arranged spatially separated by the partition 21 in the immediate vicinity of the magnet 14 in the second area 20.2.
- the magnet 14 is always arranged in such a way that the Hall sensor 15 can determine its position.
- control unit 10 and the motor driver 11 are arranged in the second region 20.2 of the housing 20.
- the control unit 10 is connected to the stepping motor 12 via the motor driver 11.
- the second end 16.2 of the motor shaft 16 is mechanically coupled to the on-load tap changer 17.
- the on-load tap changer 17 is actuated.
