Description

ELECTRIC POWER CONVERTER APPARATUS FOR CONVERTING ELECTRIC POWER BETWEEN DIRECT CURRENT AND ALTERNATING CURRENT The present invention relates to an improvement of the main circuit construction in an electric power converter apparatus such as an inverter apparatus using self-arcextinguishing switching elements.
In the past, the constructions of snubber circuit provided to a self-arc-extinguishing switching element in an inverter apparatus having a comparatively large capacity are disclosed in, for example, (1) Japanese Utility Model Application Laid Open No.59-149489, (2) Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No.61-156490, (3) Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No.62-41389, (4) Japanese Patent Application Laid Open No.62-217864 and (5) Japanese Patent Application Laid Open No.5-284731. That is, the snubber circuit is constructed by connecting a series-connected body of a capacitor and a diode to a switching element in parallel, and connecting a resistor between a direct current lines in the opposite side of the junction point of the capacitor and the diode.
Therewith, serge energy generated at switching-off time of the switching element is absorbed with the capacitor and the absorbed serge energy is consumed by the resistor, which is called as a polarized snubber circuit.
In the above conventional technology, it is necessary that all the serge energy generated at switching-off time of the switching element is absorbed with the capacitor in the polarized snubber circuit. Therefore, there is a disadvantage in that the capacity of the capacitor becomes large and the capacity of the resistor for consuming the absorbed energy also becomes large.
The object of the present invention is to realize a compact electric power converter apparatus such as an inverter apparatus and a snubber by reducing the snubber capacity.
In an inverter apparatus comprising self-arc-extinguishing switching elements in each positive arm and each negative arm of each phase connected to a direct current power source, an inverter for converting a direct current electric power to a variable voltage and variable frequency alternating electric power, a polarized snubber containing a series-connected body of a first capacitor and a diode connected to a self-arcextinguishing switching element in each of the arms in parallel, a resistor connected between the direct current power lines in the opposite side of the series junction point of the first capacitor and the diode, the inverter apparatus according to the present invention is characterized, in one aspect, by comprising a second capacitor connected between the positive and negative lines of the direct current power in parallel source so as to stride across the positive and the negative arms in series for each phase.
In another aspect, the present invention is characterized by containing the first series-connected body of capacitor and diode and the second capacitor for one phase in a package together.
By adding the second capacitor in addition to the polarized snubber, the first and the second capacitors share to absorb the serge energy generated at switching-off time of the switching element, and the capacity of the polarized snubber can be decreased. In this case, as to increasing the capacity, it is better to connect and arrange the first and the second capacitors separately than to simply increasing only number of the first capacitors. Because, in the case of separate arrangement, the wiring distance from the switching element to the capacitor can be decreased, and the capacity of each element in the snubber circuit can be effectively decreased. Therefore, the apparatus can be decreased in size and in weight.
Further, by containing the first capacitor, the diodes and the second capacitor in a package to form a module, the wiring distance between the switching element and the snubber circuit element can be minimized, Therefore, the capacity of the snubber circuit element can be effectively decreased.

FIG.5 is a front view showing an embodiment of an inverter apparatus in accordance with the present invention.
FIG.1 is a diagram showing an embodiment of an inverter circuit in accordance with the present invention.
A direct current electric power is supplied to an inverter 4 from a direct current power source 1, 2 through a smoothing capacitor 3. The inverter 4 converts the direct current into a variable voltage and variable frequency (VVVF) alternating electric power to be supplied to a three phase induction motor 5. The induction motor 5 rotates a sheave 7 through a gearbox 6 to drive an elevator car 8 and a counterweight 9 upward and downward.
The inverter 4 has a positive and a negative arms for each phase with self-arc-extinguishing switching elements, for example, self-arc-extinguishing switching elements (IGBTs) 101-106. These IGBTs are PWM controlled by a gate signal generating circuit 11.
The self-arc-extinguishing switching element requires a snubber for absorbing energy at arc-extinguishing (switchingoff) time. As the same as a construction in the prior art, series-connected bodies of capacitors 201-206 and diodes 301306 are connected to the self-arc-extinguishing switching elements (IGBTs) 101-106 in parallel, respectively. The series junction points of these series-connected bodies are connected to the direct current electric power source line N or P through resistors 401-406, respectively.
Further, in this embodiment according to the present invention, second capacitors 501-503 for respective phase are connected between the positive and the negative lines P, N of the direct current electric power source so as to stride across the series-connected positive and negative arms for respective phase in parallel.
Function of the snubber will be described below, taking U-phase as an example.
Now, taking a case where the switching element 101 is to be arc-extinguished under a condition that the switching element 101 is in an arcking state and the switching element 102 is in an arc-extinguishing state. The current flowing in the switching element 101 is rapidly cut off, and a serge voltage generated between the both terminals of the switching element 101. Then, the same voltage is applied to the seriesconnected body of the capacitor 201 and the diode 301, and the diode 301 immediately becomes conducting to absorb the serge energy in the capacitor 201. That is, the capacitor 201 is charged in the direction shown by +, - in the figure.Then, when the switching element 101 is turns on again, the energy absorbed in such a manner is consumed while flowing through the route, the capacitor 201 (+) - the direct current line P - IGBT 101 - the alternating current line U - the induction motor 5 - the alternating current line V - IGBT 104 (or, the alternating current line W - IGBT 106) - the direct current line N - the resistor 401 - the capacitor 201 (-).
Similarly, when the switching element 102 is arcextinguished under a condition that the switching element 101 is in an arcking state and the switching element 102 is in an arc-extinguishing state, the current flowing in the switching element 102 is rapidly cut off, and a serge voltage generated between the both terminals of the switching element 102. Then, the same voltage is applied to the series-connected body of the capacitor 202 and the diode 302, and the diode 302 immediately becomes conducting to absorb the serge energy in the capacitor 201. That is, the capacitor 202 is charged in the direction shown by +, - in the figure.Then, when the switching element 102 is turns on again, the energy absorbed in such a manner is consumed while flowing through the route, the capacitor 202 (+) - the resistor 402 - the direct current line P - IGBT 103 - the alternating current line V (or, IGBT 105 - the alternating current line W) - the induction motor 5 - the alternating current line U - IGBT 102 - the direct current line N - the capacitor 202 (-).
In the above cases, when the charged voltage of the capacitor 201 or 201 exceeds the voltage of the electric power source, the serge energy is absorbed in the capacitor 501 at the same time in either case. Then the energy is returned to the power source or consumed in the whole circuit wiring.That is, the charge of the capacitor 201 exceeding the electrical power source voltage of the direct current source 1, 2 is absorbed in the capacitor 501 through the capacitor 201 (+) - the capacitor 501 - the direct current line N - the resistor 401 - the capacitor 201 (-).On the other hand, the charge of the capacitor 202 exceeding the electrical power source voltage of the direct current source 1, 2 is absorbed in the capacitor 501 through the capacitor 202 (+) - the resistor 402 - the direct current line P - the capacitor 501 - the capacitor 202 (-).
Then, the energy absorbed in the capacitor 501 is resonated between the smoothing capacitor 3 in the direct current power source side with the inductance contained in the wiring to be dispersed in the whole circuit wiring, and is consumed and disappears.
Therein, not only the capacity of the capacitors 201, 202 can be decreased by the amount corresponding to the energy absorbed by the capacitor 501, but also the capacity of the diodes 301, 302 can be decreased since the in-flow energy decreases by the decreased capacity of the capacitors 201, 202.
Further, since the amount of energy to be consumed is decreased, the capacity of the resistors 401, 402 can be also decreased.
FIG.2 is a perspective view showing a snubber module 601 in which the capacitors 201, 202, 501 and the diodes 301, 302 are contained in a package. The module 601 has terminals 741, 751 for connecting to the resistors as well as the direct current terminals 711, 721 and the alternating current terminals 731 shown in FIG.1. By minimizing the wiring distance between the elements in such a manner, the inductance of the wiring can be decreased, the capacitor 501 effectively absorbs energy, and consequently the capacity of each of the elements can be further decreased.
FIG.3 to FIG.5 are a plan view, a side view and a front view showing the construction of the inverter shown in FIG.1.
IGBT modules 81 to 83 are fixed to and mounted on a cooling fin 80 with spacing. Further, snubber modules 601 to 603 are mounted on the IGBT modules 81 to 83, respectively.
Specifically, three terminals of the snubber modules 601 to 603, that is, the direct current terminals 711, 721 and the alternating current terminal 731 are used as screws for fixing. By doing so, the wiring distance between each of the switching elements and the snubber can be minimized, and the snubber can be decreased in capacity and in size.
The snubber resistors 401-406 are contained in a resistor box 84 together and cooled separately.
According to the present invention, the capacity of the snubber apparatus can be decreased and the main circuit of an electric power converter apparatus such as an inverter can be decreased in size.
