Embodiment 1 FIG.
FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram showing a configuration of a high pressure discharge lamp lighting device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.
The high pressure discharge lamp lighting device of the present embodiment shown in the figure includes a DC power supply circuit 1, a half-bridge type inverter circuit, a load circuit, an igniter starting circuit, and a control circuit 14. The DC power supply circuit 1 includes, for example, a rectifier circuit that rectifies the power of the AC power supply into DC power, and a step-up PFC (Power Factor Control) circuit connected between the outputs of the rectifier circuit. This step-up PFC circuit is provided with an inductor, a switching element for stepping up the output of the rectifier circuit based on on / off control of the control circuit 14 and the like.

前記のインバータ回路は、直流電源回路1の出力間に直列に接続された第1のスイッチング素子2及び第2のスイッチング素子3と、これらスイッチング素子2,3に並列に接続され、第1の電解コンデンサ4及び第2の電解コンデンサ5の直列回路とから構成されている。負荷回路は、第1及び第2のスイッチング素子2,3の接続点と第1及び第2の電解コンデンサ4,5の接続点との間に、後述する昇圧トランス8の2次巻線8bを介在して直列に接続されたインダクタ6及び高圧放電灯9と、この高圧放電灯9及び前記2次巻線8bに並列に接続されたコンデンサ7とで構成されている。前述した高圧放電灯9として、HIDランプ(高圧水銀ランプ)、高圧ナトリウムランプ、メタルハライドランプ等が用いられている。   The inverter circuit includes a first switching element 2 and a second switching element 3 connected in series between the outputs of the DC power supply circuit 1, and is connected in parallel to the switching elements 2 and 3. It consists of a series circuit of a capacitor 4 and a second electrolytic capacitor 5. The load circuit includes a secondary winding 8b of a step-up transformer 8 described later between a connection point of the first and second switching elements 2 and 3 and a connection point of the first and second electrolytic capacitors 4 and 5. The inductor 6 and the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 are connected in series with each other, and the capacitor 7 is connected in parallel with the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 and the secondary winding 8b. As the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 described above, an HID lamp (high-pressure mercury lamp), a high-pressure sodium lamp, a metal halide lamp, or the like is used.

イグナイタ始動回路は、直流電源回路1の出力間に直列に接続された抵抗10、ダイオード11及び充放電コンデンサ12と、2次巻線8bが前述の如くインダクタ6及び高圧放電灯9の間に挿入され、1次巻線8aの一端がダイオード11及び充放電コンデンサ12の接続点に接続された昇圧トランス8と、昇圧トランス8の1次巻線の他端及び充放電コンデンサ12の負極側の間に挿入された2端子サイリスタ13とから構成されている。なお、前述した抵抗10、ダイオード11及び充放電コンデンサ12により充放電回路が構成されている。   In the igniter starting circuit, the resistor 10, the diode 11 and the charge / discharge capacitor 12 connected in series between the outputs of the DC power supply circuit 1 and the secondary winding 8b are inserted between the inductor 6 and the high pressure discharge lamp 9 as described above. And between the other end of the primary winding of the step-up transformer 8 and the negative electrode side of the charge / discharge capacitor 12. One end of the primary winding 8 a is connected to the connection point of the diode 11 and the charge / discharge capacitor 12. And a two-terminal thyristor 13 inserted into the. Note that a charge / discharge circuit is configured by the resistor 10, the diode 11, and the charge / discharge capacitor 12 described above.

制御回路14は、動作説明時に詳述するが、負荷回路の高圧放電灯9を始動する際、充放電回路の充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13を導通させる電圧値、即ち2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧に達する電圧値となるように直流電源回路1を制御し、高圧放電灯9が点灯した後は、その充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13を非導通させる電圧値(ブレークオーバー電圧より低い電圧値)となるように直流電源回路1を制御する。高圧放電灯9が点灯したか否かの判別は、図1には図示していないが、例えば電圧検出回路により検出された高圧放電灯9の電圧が予め設定された電圧値より低くなったときに、高圧放電灯9が点灯したと判別する。なお、これに代えて、電流検出回路の検出電流から高圧放電灯9が点灯したか否かを判別するようにしても良い。この場合、その検出電流が予め設定された電流値よりも高くなったときに、高圧放電灯9が点灯したと判別する。   The control circuit 14 will be described in detail when explaining the operation. When starting the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 of the load circuit, the control circuit 14 sets the voltage value at which the charging voltage of the charging / discharging circuit makes the two-terminal thyristor 13 conductive, that is, the breakover of the two-terminal thyristor 13. After the DC power supply circuit 1 is controlled to reach a voltage value that reaches the voltage and the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 is lit, the charging voltage is a voltage value that makes the two-terminal thyristor 13 non-conductive (a voltage value lower than the breakover voltage). The DC power supply circuit 1 is controlled so that The determination as to whether or not the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 is lit is not shown in FIG. 1, but for example, when the voltage of the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 detected by the voltage detection circuit becomes lower than a preset voltage value. Then, it is determined that the high pressure discharge lamp 9 has been turned on. Instead of this, it may be determined whether or not the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 has been lit based on the current detected by the current detection circuit. In this case, when the detected current becomes higher than a preset current value, it is determined that the high pressure discharge lamp 9 has been turned on.

次に、本実施の形態の高圧放電灯点灯装置の動作について説明する。
制御回路14は、高圧放電灯9を始動する際、第1のスイッチング素子2及び第2のスイッチング素子3を交互にオン・オフすると共に、直流電源回路1を制御し、かつ、電圧検出回路の検出電圧を通じて高圧放電灯9が点灯したか否かを判別する。第1及び第2のスイッチング素子2,3の制御は、予め設定された第1の期間、第1のスイッチング素子2のみを高周波でオン・オフし、次いで、第2の期間、第2のスイッチング素子3のみを高周波でオン・オフし、この第1及び第2の期間の切り替えを低周波で繰り返し行っている。また、直流電源回路1側の制御は、抵抗10及びダイオード11を介して充放電コンデンサ12に充電される電圧が2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧に達する電圧値となるように行っている。
Next, the operation of the high pressure discharge lamp lighting device of the present embodiment will be described.
When starting the high-pressure discharge lamp 9, the control circuit 14 alternately turns on and off the first switching element 2 and the second switching element 3, controls the DC power supply circuit 1, and the voltage detection circuit. It is determined whether or not the high pressure discharge lamp 9 has been turned on through the detection voltage. The first and second switching elements 2 and 3 are controlled by turning on / off only the first switching element 2 at a high frequency for a preset first period, and then for the second period. Only the element 3 is turned on / off at a high frequency, and the switching between the first and second periods is repeated at a low frequency. The control on the DC power supply circuit 1 side is performed so that the voltage charged to the charge / discharge capacitor 12 via the resistor 10 and the diode 11 reaches a voltage value that reaches the breakover voltage of the two-terminal thyristor 13.

この制御により、充放電コンデンサ12の充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧に達する毎に放電され、その電圧が昇圧トランス8の1次巻線8aに間欠的に印加され、2次巻線8bに高電圧パルスが発生し、第1及び第2のスイッチング素子2,3の動作による点灯周波数の矩形波電圧に重畳し、高圧放電灯9に繰り返し印加される。一方、制御回路14は、昇圧トランス8の2次巻線8bに高電圧パルスを発生させているときに、電圧検出回路の検出電圧が予め設定された電圧値より低くなったことを検知すると、高圧放電灯9が点灯したと判別して、充放電コンデンサ12の充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧より低くなるように直流電源回路1を制御し、昇圧トランス8の2次巻線8bに発生する高電圧パルスを停止させる。   By this control, the charging voltage of the charging / discharging capacitor 12 is discharged every time it reaches the breakover voltage of the two-terminal thyristor 13, and the voltage is intermittently applied to the primary winding 8 a of the step-up transformer 8. A high voltage pulse is generated in 8b, is superimposed on a rectangular wave voltage of the lighting frequency by the operation of the first and second switching elements 2 and 3, and is repeatedly applied to the high pressure discharge lamp 9. On the other hand, when the control circuit 14 generates a high voltage pulse in the secondary winding 8b of the step-up transformer 8, and detects that the detection voltage of the voltage detection circuit is lower than a preset voltage value, It is determined that the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 has been turned on, and the DC power supply circuit 1 is controlled so that the charging voltage of the charging / discharging capacitor 12 is lower than the breakover voltage of the two-terminal thyristor 13, and the secondary winding 8 b of the step-up transformer 8. The high-voltage pulse generated in is stopped.

以上のように実施の形態1によれば、負荷回路の高圧放電灯9を始動する際、充放電コンデンサ12の充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧に達する電圧値となるように直流電源回路1を制御し、高圧放電灯9が点灯した後は、その充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧より低い電圧値となるように直流電源回路1を制御するようにしたので、充放電回路と2端子サイリスタ13をそれぞれ一部品で済み、このため、イグナイタ始動回路の構成が簡単になり、小型化を図れるという効果がある。   As described above, according to the first embodiment, when starting the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 of the load circuit, the DC power supply is set so that the charging voltage of the charging / discharging capacitor 12 reaches a voltage value that reaches the breakover voltage of the two-terminal thyristor 13. After the circuit 1 is controlled and the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 is lit, the DC power supply circuit 1 is controlled so that the charging voltage is lower than the breakover voltage of the two-terminal thyristor 13. Since the circuit and the two-terminal thyristor 13 are each one component, the configuration of the igniter starting circuit is simplified and the size can be reduced.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram showing a configuration of a high pressure discharge lamp lighting device according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same or equivalent part as Embodiment 1 demonstrated in FIG. 1, and description is abbreviate | omitted.
In the first embodiment, a charging / discharging circuit in which a resistor 10, a diode 11, and a charging / discharging capacitor 12 are connected in series is provided between the outputs of the DC power supply circuit 1. However, in the present embodiment, the inductor 6 and the A charging / discharging circuit in which a resistor 10, a diode 11, and a charging / discharging capacitor 12 are connected in series between a connection point of the secondary winding 8b of the step-up transformer 8 and the negative electrode side (ground side) of the DC power supply circuit 1. It is provided.

本実施の形態におけるイグナイタ始動回路の2端子サイリスタ13は、実施の形態1と同様に、充放電コンデンサ12に昇圧トランス8の1次巻線8aを介して接続されており、始動時に高圧放電灯9に印加される電圧よりブレークオーバー電圧が低く、高圧放電灯9が点灯した後の電圧よりもブレークオーバー電圧が高い特性を有するものが選定されている。また、制御回路14は、高圧放電灯9を始動する際、実施の形態1と同様に、まず、第1の期間、第1のスイッチング素子2のみを高周波でオン・オフし、次いで、第2の期間、第2のスイッチング素子3のみを高周波でオン・オフし、この切り替えを低周波で繰り返し行う。   Similarly to the first embodiment, the two-terminal thyristor 13 of the igniter starting circuit in the present embodiment is connected to the charge / discharge capacitor 12 via the primary winding 8a of the step-up transformer 8, and at the time of starting the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 having a characteristic that the breakover voltage is lower than the voltage applied to 9 and the breakover voltage is higher than the voltage after the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 is lit. When starting the high-pressure discharge lamp 9, the control circuit 14 first turns on and off only the first switching element 2 at a high frequency for the first period, and then the second During this period, only the second switching element 3 is turned on / off at a high frequency, and this switching is repeated at a low frequency.

次に、本実施の形態の高圧放電灯点灯装置の動作について説明する。
制御回路14は、負荷回路の高圧放電灯9を始動する際、前述したように、第1の期間、第1のスイッチング素子2のみを高周波でオン・オフし、次いで、第2の期間、第2のスイッチング素子3のみを高周波でオン・オフし、この切り替えを低周波で繰り返し行う。第1のスイッチング素子がオン・オフ動作しているときにインダクタ6を介して流れる電流が充放電コンデンサ12に充電され、その充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧に達したときに、その充電電圧が放電されて昇圧トランス8の1次巻線8aに印加し、その2次巻線8bに高電圧パルスが発生し、第1及び第2のスイッチング素子2,3の動作による点灯周波数の矩形波電圧に重畳して、高圧放電灯9に印加される。
Next, the operation of the high pressure discharge lamp lighting device of the present embodiment will be described.
As described above, when starting the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 of the load circuit, the control circuit 14 turns on / off only the first switching element 2 at a high frequency in the first period, and then in the second period, Only the second switching element 3 is turned on / off at a high frequency, and this switching is repeated at a low frequency. When the first switching element is on / off, the current flowing through the inductor 6 is charged into the charge / discharge capacitor 12, and when the charge voltage reaches the breakover voltage of the two-terminal thyristor 13, The charging voltage is discharged and applied to the primary winding 8a of the step-up transformer 8, a high voltage pulse is generated in the secondary winding 8b, and the lighting frequency due to the operation of the first and second switching elements 2 and 3 is increased. The voltage is applied to the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 while being superimposed on the rectangular wave voltage.

一方、制御回路14は、高電圧パルスの印加により高圧放電灯9が点灯すると、第1及び第2のスイッチング素子2,3を高周波で交互にオン・オフし、高圧放電灯9の点灯を継続する。この時、高圧放電灯9に印加される電圧が低下するので、放電コンデンサ12の充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧より低くなり、昇圧トランス8の2次巻線8aに発生する高電圧パルスを停止する。なお、制御回路14による高圧放電灯9の点灯判別は、電圧検出回路の検出電圧が予め設定された電圧値より低くなったことを検知したときである。   On the other hand, when the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 is lit by application of a high voltage pulse, the control circuit 14 alternately turns on and off the first and second switching elements 2 and 3 at a high frequency, and continues lighting the high-pressure discharge lamp 9. To do. At this time, since the voltage applied to the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 decreases, the charging voltage of the discharge capacitor 12 becomes lower than the breakover voltage of the two-terminal thyristor 13, and the high voltage generated in the secondary winding 8 a of the step-up transformer 8. Stop the pulse. Note that the lighting determination of the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 by the control circuit 14 is when it is detected that the detection voltage of the voltage detection circuit has become lower than a preset voltage value.

以上のように実施の形態2によれば、高圧放電灯9の始動時には、充放電コンデンサ12への充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧に達する毎に昇圧トランス8の2次巻線8bに高電圧パルスが発生し、高圧放電灯9が点灯した際には、充放電コンデンサ12への充電電圧が2端子サイリスタ13のブレークオーバー電圧より低くなって昇圧トランス8の2次巻線8bに発生する高電圧パルスが停止するので、高圧放電灯9の点灯時の直流電源回路1の出力電圧の変更に対する制御が不要になり、このため、イグナイタ始動回路を簡素化及び小型化できるという効果に加え、制御回路14の構成を実施の形態1と比べ簡素化できる。   As described above, according to the second embodiment, when the high-pressure discharge lamp 9 is started, the secondary winding 8b of the step-up transformer 8 every time the charging voltage to the charge / discharge capacitor 12 reaches the breakover voltage of the two-terminal thyristor 13. When a high voltage pulse is generated and the high pressure discharge lamp 9 is turned on, the charge voltage to the charge / discharge capacitor 12 becomes lower than the breakover voltage of the two-terminal thyristor 13 and is applied to the secondary winding 8b of the step-up transformer 8. Since the generated high voltage pulse stops, it becomes unnecessary to control the change of the output voltage of the DC power supply circuit 1 when the high pressure discharge lamp 9 is turned on. For this reason, the igniter start circuit can be simplified and miniaturized. In addition, the configuration of the control circuit 14 can be simplified as compared with the first embodiment.
