FIG. 15 is a flowchart illustrating an AC synchronous control type electro-paced bed temperature control method according to the present invention.

15, when the power is supplied, the microcomputer 100 controls the AC synchronous detection unit 250 to detect the zero crossing position, the positive peak point, and the negative peak point of the AC sine wave, (S111).

When the AC synchronizing signal is inputted, the microcomputer 100 judges whether the circuit is safe (or abnormal) by the input signal such as the trigger signal, the temperature detecting signal, the heater current detecting signal, and the temperature detecting line disconnection signal according to the synchronizing signal S113). The safety determination method of the circuit will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 11 to be described later.

If there is no abnormality in the circuit, the microcomputer 100 measures the temperature of the hot wire by the NTC thermistor 713 through the temperature measuring unit 800 in the temperature detecting operation period (S115).

The microcomputer 100 determines whether the temperature measured by the NTC thermistor 713 is lower than a preset reference value of the hot-wire temperature (S117).

When the measured temperature is lower than the hot-wire temperature reference value, the microcomputer 100 synchronizes with the zero-crossing detection so that the heater current can continuously flow through the heating wire heater 710 during the heating period, To the controller 720, that is, to the gate of the SCR (S119). When the heater power controller 720 outputs a trigger signal, the heater power controller 720 will normally be turned on to flow heater current.

The microcomputer 100 outputs the trigger signal to the heater power controller 720 and then determines whether the heater power controller 720 operates normally through the heater current detector 730 or the controller failure diagnosis unit 740 ).

If the heater current is not detected through the heater current detector 730 and the controller failure diagnosis unit 740 or the heater power controller conduction signal is not the heater power controller conduction signal after the output of the trigger signal, the microcomputer 100 outputs the heater power The controller 720 determines that the controller 720 is disconnected, generates an alarm, stops the operation, and indicates that the heater power controller 720 is disconnected through the display unit 400. If the display unit 400 is an LED, the heater power controller 720 can be notified that the heater power controller 720 is blown.

On the other hand, if the heater current is detected or the heater power controller conduction signal is a heater power controller conduction signal, the microcomputer 100 determines that the heater power controller 720 normally operates, The heating wire temperature is measured by the heating wire 712 and the second heating wire 714 (S123), and it is determined whether the measured resistance wire heating wire temperature is higher than a preset resistance wire heating wire temperature reference value (S125).

As a result of the determination, when the measured resistance coefficient heat ray temperature is higher than the reference value, the microcomputer 100 delays the output of the trigger signal for a predetermined number (n) cycles of the AC synchronization signal (S127), lowers the temperature of the heating wire heater 710 And the safety operation is performed by adjusting the temperature to be constant.

The microcomputer 100 compares the temperature of the NTC thermistor on the basis of the negative sinusoidal peak value of the AC synchronous signal as shown in FIG. 6 (b) And outputs the trigger signal to the SCR of the heater power controller 720 in the zero crossing.

Also, the microcomputer 100 measures and compares the heater current based on the positive peak value of the sinusoidal wave of (C) in FIG. 6, and performs the control operation according to the comparison / analysis result.

If the sinusoidal signal is cut off or cut off when the microcomputer 100 reads the waveform, it is regarded as a connection failure of the connection portion and an alarm is generated. The supply of the AC power is interrupted through the AC power cutoff unit 500 to stop the heating operation.

The alarm generation and the heating operation stop may be generated when the heater current in the heating operation section is not detected but the current is detected in the temperature detection operation section in which the heater current should not be detected in the circuit abnormality determination, It may be generated when the heater power controller ON signal is input in the temperature detection operation period or when the heating wire heater 710 is overheated.

Upon occurrence of the alarm, the microcomputer 100 determines whether an alarm has been generated due to the abnormal electrical conduction of the heater power controller 720 (S133). If the heater power controller 720 becomes abnormal and an alarm is generated, 510) to shut off the AC power (S135).

FIG. 16 is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining abnormality in a circuit of the AC synchronous control type bedding thermostat according to the present invention.

The circuit anomaly detection method will be performed during one cycle of the AC synchronization signal.

More specifically, the microcomputer 100 determines whether or not there is a heater current according to the AC synchronization, whether or not the heater power controller is in operation (S211), and determines whether the heater power controller 720 is abnormal (S213). That is, the microcomputer 100 determines whether the heater current is detected through the heater current detector 730 in the heating operation period or the heater power controller conduction signal is inputted as the heater power controller conduction signal from the controller failure diagnosis unit 740, It is checked whether the heater current is not detected during the interval or the heater power controller shut-off signal is inputted from the controller failure diagnosis unit 740 as the heater power controller continuity signal. If the heater current is not detected through the heater current detector 730 in the heating operation period or the heater power controller shutoff signal is input from the controller failure diagnosis unit 740, it is determined that the heater power controller 720 is disconnected When the heater current is detected through the heater current detector 730 in the temperature detection operation period or the heater power controller conduction signal is inputted from the controller failure diagnosis unit 740, it can be determined that the heater power controller 720 is short-circuited will be.

If it is determined that there is no abnormality such as disconnection or short-circuit of the heater power controller 720 according to whether the heater current is abnormal or whether the heater power controller 720 is conductive, the microcomputer 100 determines that the NTC thermistor 713 And the NTC thermistor 713 are disconnected (when the temperature detecting wire disconnection detecting portion 900 is provided) (S215), and it is determined whether or not the NTC thermistor 713 is short-circuited or disconnected (S217 ). If the short circuit between the first heating line 712 and the second heating line 714 results in a short-circuit determination of the NTC thermistor, the voltage of the negative power cycle of the AC power source, i.e., the temperature detection operation period becomes maximum, And it can be judged by this change value. In the disconnection judgment of the NTC thermistor 713, since the temperature signal flows through the temperature detecting wire disconnection detecting section 900 as described above at the time of disconnection of the NTC thermistor 713, the voltage value of the temperature detecting signal varies accordingly So that it can be judged that it has been broken.

If there is no abnormality in the NTC thermistor 713, the microcomputer 100 measures the temperature of the heating wire heater 710 by the NTC thermistor 713 in the temperature detecting operation period (S219). In the heating operation section, 800) to measure the temperature of the hot wire by the thermal resistance internal temperature coefficient (S221).

If the temperature of each of the heating operation section and the temperature detection operation section is measured, the microcomputer 100 compares the measured temperature with a predetermined reference temperature for determining whether or not the heating wire heater 710 is overheated (S223).

If overheating has not occurred, the microcomputer 100 completes preparation for operation (S225), and performs the processes after S115 of FIG. 10 described above.

On the other hand, if the heater power controller 720 is abnormal, the NTC thermistor 713 is shorted or disconnected, or the heating wire heater 710 is overheated, the process after S131 of FIG. 15 will be performed.
