Description
本発明は暖房などの熱源として用いることのできるPTCヒータの制御装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a control device for a PTC heater that can be used as a heat source for heating or the like.
従来、この種のPTCヒータ制御装置は、供給電圧の通電オン/オフ時間の割合を変えてヒータ温度を制御するようにしている。 Conventionally, this type of PTC heater control device controls the heater temperature by changing the ratio of the energization on / off time of the supply voltage.
図5は、前記従来のPTCヒータ制御装置を示すもので、電流検出部51と、温度設定部52と、この温度設定部52で設定された温度とPTCヒータ53の温度との偏差を演算し、通電のオン/オフ時間を制御するコントロール部54と、電源オン/オフ部55から構成されている。 FIG. 5 shows the conventional PTC heater control device, which calculates a current detection unit 51, a temperature setting unit 52, and a deviation between the temperature set by the temperature setting unit 52 and the temperature of the PTC heater 53. The control unit 54 controls the on / off time of energization, and the power on / off unit 55.
なお、56は電源、57は電源スイッチを示す(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
しかしながら、前記従来の構成では、供給電圧の通電オン/オフ時間の割合を変えてヒータ温度を制御しているので、供給電圧に依存した立上がり時間となり、立上がり時間を速くできず、また、通電オフ時に温度が下降しているのを感じるために、例えば暖房用熱源使用感が悪いという課題を有していた。 However, in the conventional configuration, since the heater temperature is controlled by changing the ratio of the energization on / off time of the supply voltage, the rise time depends on the supply voltage, the rise time cannot be increased, and the energization is off. In order to feel that the temperature is sometimes lowered, for example, there is a problem that the feeling of using the heating heat source is bad.
本発明は、前記従来の課題を解決するもので、立上がり時間が速く、温度安定時の温度変化を感じない快適なPTCヒータ制御装置を提供することを目的とする。 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-described conventional problems, and an object thereof is to provide a comfortable PTC heater control device that has a fast rise time and does not feel a temperature change when the temperature is stable.
前記従来の課題を解決するために、本発明のPTCヒータ制御装置は、PTCヒータの電流を検出する電流検出部と、前記PTCヒータの温度設定を行う温度設定部と、PTCヒータの温度を制御するコントロール部と、PTCヒータの電圧を可変する電圧可変部と、PTCヒータの電圧を入/切する電源オン/オフ部とを備え、前記コントロール部は温度と抵抗値の関係を示すPTC特性データを有し、供給電源電圧を検出して、前記電流検出部で検出した電流値、検出供給電源電圧、PTC特性データからPTCヒータの温度を算出し、前記温度設定部の温度設定との偏差を演算し、立上がり時のヒータ温度のオーバーシュートを抑えつつ立上がりが最速となるようPTCヒータの電圧を可変制御するものである。 In order to solve the conventional problems, a PTC heater control device according to the present invention controls a current detection unit for detecting a current of a PTC heater, a temperature setting unit for setting the temperature of the PTC heater, and a temperature of the PTC heater. PTC characteristic data indicating a relationship between temperature and resistance value, a control section for controlling, a voltage variable section for varying the voltage of the PTC heater, and a power on / off section for turning on / off the voltage of the PTC heater. The power supply voltage is detected, the temperature of the PTC heater is calculated from the current value detected by the current detection unit, the detected supply power supply voltage, and the PTC characteristic data, and the deviation from the temperature setting of the temperature setting unit is calculated. The voltage of the PTC heater is variably controlled so that the rise is fastest while suppressing overshoot of the heater temperature at the rise.
これによって、供給電源電圧に依存することなくPTCヒータの電圧を昇圧して立上がり時間が速くでき、PTCヒータの電圧を可変制御して立上がり時のPTCヒータの温度のオーバーシュートを抑え、温度安定時の温度変化を感じない快適感を提供できる。 As a result, the rise time can be increased by boosting the voltage of the PTC heater without depending on the supply voltage, and the PTC heater voltage can be variably controlled to suppress the overshoot of the temperature of the PTC heater at the time of temperature stabilization. It can provide a comfortable feeling without feeling the temperature change.
