Description

SAFETY COUPLING FOR A FREQUENCY CONVERTER CONTROLLED MOTOR DRIVE
The object of the invention is a safety coupling in a frequency converter controlled motor drive according to the preamble of Claim 1.
In explosive atmospheres, potentially dangerous situations must be prevented and the damage caused by any accidents must be limited with safety measures to a minimum. Design guidelines and standards contain instructions and regulations that must be met when working in a danger zone and when manufacturing or operating machines in explosive atmospheres or in the vicinity of such atmospheres. For example, an electrical machine using brushes, the use of which may in normal operation include spark formation, cannot be used in explosive atmospheres.
Explosive atmospheres appear in the process industry, particularly in oil and gas refining industry. Conveyors, pumps and other continuously or periodically operating drives are frequently used as actuators in these industries. Among the motors driving actuators, frequency converter controlled motors with small air gaps may be particularly problematic.
Safety measures include the use of mechanical or corresponding safety guards to protect the equipment that may cause an unforeseen increase in the total accident risk. For example, bearing and shaft voltages in a motor or generator caused by a voltage source frequency converter may endanger the bearings and may also directly ignite an explosion. Removal of these above-mentioned unwanted voltages for example by using various filters or insulation of bearing surfaces is expensive and inconvenient.
The objective of the invention is to create a new, safe and functionally reliable frequency converter controlled motor drive for dangerous areas. In order to achieve this, the invention is characterized by the features specified in the characteristics section of Claim 1. The characteristics of some other preferred embodiments of the invention are characterized by dependent claims.
According to the invention, an actuator in an explosive atmosphere is driven by a motor that is controlled with a dual bridge inverter (DBI), in which the motor output of the frequency converter consists of two synchronized branches with opposite phases, both of which may consist of one or more parallel inverter bridges. The motor output branches are controlled with simultaneous control signals with opposite phases, created in a control unit common to both branches. Due to the simultaneousness requirement of control signals it is essential that the motor output branches are not controlled with higher level signals generally used for the so-called master-slave drives, such as current, frequency, speed or moment, the use of which does not guarantee simultaneous branch connections, as it is well known. Separate cables will be used to connect the branches of the said motor output to the two branch windings of the motor driving the said actuator. The polarity of one of these branch windings is reversed. The said branch windings may consist of one or more internal branches. With the invention, a dual-bridge inverter (DBI) can be utilized to prevent common-mode voltages from accessing the electrical machine or an actuator driven by the machine.
According to one embodiment of the invention, the stator winding will have an even number of branches, in which case the first bridge is used to control the odd branches of each branch pair, and the other bridge will supply the even branch of each branch pair, the control signals to the even branch being reverse to and simultaneous with the control pulses of the first bridge.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the frequency converter is connected to a power grid with a dual network bridge including a first network bridge controlled by the first control pulses of the network bridge, and a second network bridge controlled by the second control pulses of the network bridge, the second control pulses being reverse to the first control pulses. This will also enable reversing the so-called front end common-mode voltage.
In the following, the invention will be described in detail with the help of certain embodiments by referring to the enclosed drawings, where
— Figure 1 illustrates a connection principle used in the invention and
- Figure 2 illustrates an application according to the invention.
Figure 1 is a schematic illustration of a coupling to enable a frequency converter to supply and control an electrical machine, implementing a solution according to the invention. The frequency converter includes a network rectifier 4 connected to an alternating-current network 2 and used to create a direct- current voltage into the frequency converter's intermediate circuit 6. A capacitor 8 has been connected to the intermediate circuit between the intermediate circuit conductors 10 and 12 using a known method. In this embodiment of the invention, direct current is conducted from the intermediate circuit to the inverter component 15, consisting of two identical inverters 14 and 16 that contain a six-pulse bridge, and using IGBT semiconductor switches. Pulse width modulation is used to convert direct voltage into alternating voltage by connecting the positive and negative voltages of the direct voltage to the stator windings of the electrical machine so that an alternating voltage according to the control is created in the windings. Alternating voltage consists of voltage pulses. When one six-pulse bridge is used to supply the motor stator windings, momentary switch positions have the effect that the common-mode voltage over the motor windings is not always zero as it is for a sinusoidally varying three-phase voltage. According to the invention, the motor stator winding consists of two separate branch windings, in which case the first branch winding 18 consists of windings U1, V1 and W1 and the second branch winding 20 consists of windings U2, V2, and W2. Branch windings 18 and 20 are parallel connected so that their conductors do not touch at any point. The first branch winding 18 is supplied by the inverter 14, and the other branch winding 20 is supplied by the inverter 16. The first and second branch winding are identical, but they are supplied from opposite ends. This is illustrated by the schematic winding diagram in Figure 1. The first ends 22, 24 and correspondingly 26 (marked with black dots) of the windings Ul, Vl and Wl of the first branch winding 18 have been connected to the output of the inverter 14, and the opposing ends have been connected to the star point 27. Correspondingly, the first ends (marked with black dots) of the windings of the second branch winding 20 have been connected to the star point 28, and the opposing ends have been connected to the output of the inverter 16.
Inverters 14 and 16 are controlled by the control device 30. The control signals generated by the device are conducted by cable 32 to the semiconductor switches of inverter 14. The same control signals are conducted by cable 34 to the reverse operator 36 and further with cable 38 to the semiconductor switches of inverter 16. The voltages supplied by inverters 14 and 16 to branch windings 18 and 20 are therefore of the same magnitude but opposite phase, resulting in the branch windings inducing a unidirectional field. Both inverters 14 and 16 generate common-mode voltages that are due to the sum of voltages over windings not equaling to zero at all times. When the switches of inverters 14 and 16 are simultaneously controlled in the opposite phases, both create common-mode voltages of identical magnitude, canceling each other out.
The sum of the output voltages of inverters 14 and 16 is zero at all times, so the inverter operation will cause no common-mode voltage. No currents caused by common-mode voltage are thus induced in the magnetic circuit of the motor. As a consequence, no circulating, spark-inducing currents closing their circuit through the bearings exist in the actuator frame components fastened to the stator and rotor of the motor. As there is no common-mode voltage, no capacitive coupled so-called bearing voltages causing danger of explosion will emerge between the motor components.
Figure 2 contains a schematic illustration of a solution according to the invention. Pump 42 driven by the motor 44 has been fitted inside the explosive atmosphere 40. Motor rotor 46 is bearing-mounted with bearings 50 to the motor end plates 48. Motor 44 is controlled by an inverter as shown in connection with Figure 1. Inverters 14 and 16 of the inverter component 15 have been installed outside the explosive atmosphere 40, and the motor is supplied by motor cables 52 taken into the explosive atmosphere.
In the above, the invention has been described with the help of certain embodiments. However, the description should not be considered as limiting the scope of patent protection; the embodiments of the invention may vary within the scope of the following claims.
