Description

LEDランプ点灯制御回路、および、LEDランプ点灯制御方法LED lamp lighting control circuit and LED lamp lighting control method
 本発明は、LEDランプ点灯制御回路、および、LEDランプ点灯制御方法に関する。 The present invention relates to an LED lamp lighting control circuit and an LED lamp lighting control method.
 従来、例えば、2輪車などのヘッドランプは、一般的に、バルブなどのランプが用いられている(例えば、特許第4597194号、特許第4480817号参照。)。 Conventionally, for example, lamps such as bulbs are generally used for headlamps such as motorcycles (see, for example, Japanese Patent No. 4597194 and Japanese Patent No. 4480817).
 しかし、上記従来技術で適用されるバルブランプは、消費電力が大きい問題がある。そこで、2輪車などのヘッドランプに抵抗値が小さいLEDランプの適用が考えられる。 However, the bulb lamp applied in the above prior art has a problem of large power consumption. Therefore, it is conceivable to apply an LED lamp having a small resistance value to a headlamp such as a motorcycle.
 ここで、従来のLEDランプのLEDランプ点灯制御回路100Aは、単相交流発電機GのコイルLに接続されたダイオードおよびサイリスタで構成される整流回路と、この整流回路を制御する制御回路CONと、を備える(図4)。 Here, the LED lamp lighting control circuit 100A of the conventional LED lamp includes a rectifier circuit composed of a diode and a thyristor connected to the coil L of the single-phase AC generator G, and a control circuit CON that controls the rectifier circuit. (FIG. 4).
 このLEDランプ点灯制御回路100Aは、制御回路CONにより整流回路を制御して、単相交流発電機Gで発電した電力をバッテリBに充電し、このバッテリBからLEDランプに電力を供給する。 The LED lamp lighting control circuit 100A controls the rectifier circuit by the control circuit CON, charges the battery B with the electric power generated by the single-phase AC generator G, and supplies the electric power from the battery B to the LED lamp.
 しかし、上記従来のLEDランプ点灯制御回路100Aでは、例えば、LEDランプの逆電圧VRが低く、負荷などから負サージが発生した場合、または、バッテリBの逆接時の逆電圧が印加された場合などにおいて、LED素子を保護するためのダイオードが別途必要になる。 However, in the conventional LED lamp lighting control circuit 100A, for example, when the reverse voltage VR of the LED lamp is low and a negative surge occurs from a load or the like, or when a reverse voltage at the time of reverse connection of the battery B is applied, etc. In this case, a diode for protecting the LED element is required separately.
 また、上記従来のLEDランプ点灯制御回路100Aでは、LED素子に電力を供給するためのバッテリBが必要となるため、バッテリBを搭載しない車両には適用できない。 In addition, the conventional LED lamp lighting control circuit 100A requires a battery B for supplying power to the LED elements, and therefore cannot be applied to a vehicle not equipped with the battery B.

An LED lamp lighting control method according to an embodiment according to an aspect of the present invention includes:
A first input terminal to which the other end of the coil of the single-phase AC generator whose one end is connected to the ground is connected, and a second input to which the cathode side of the LED element whose anode side is connected to the ground is connected A first terminal having one end connected to the first input terminal and the other end connected to the second input terminal; an output terminal to which a load is connected; a ground terminal to which the ground is connected; A switch element; a first control circuit that controls the first switch element; a second switch element having one end connected to the output terminal and the other end connected to the first input terminal; A second control circuit for controlling the second switch element, and an LED lamp lighting control method by an LED lamp lighting control circuit comprising:
In the case where the output voltage of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator has the first polarity, and the magnitude of the output voltage is equal to or higher than a target voltage, the first control circuit causes the first control circuit to 1 switch element is turned on,
On the other hand, when the output voltage has the second polarity, the first control circuit turns off the first switch element.
 本発明の一態様に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路は、第1の入力端子に一端が接続され、第2の入力端子に他端が接続された第1のスイッチ素子(第1のサイリスタ)と、第1のスイッチ素子を制御する第1の制御回路と、出力端子に一端が接続され、第1の入力端子に他端が接続された第2のスイッチ素子(第2のサイリスタ)と、第2のスイッチ素子を制御する第2の制御回路と、を備える。 An LED lamp lighting control circuit according to an aspect of the present invention includes a first switch element (first thyristor) having one end connected to a first input terminal and the other end connected to a second input terminal; A first control circuit for controlling the first switch element; a second switch element (second thyristor) having one end connected to the output terminal and the other end connected to the first input terminal; And a second control circuit for controlling the switch element.
 第1の制御回路は、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、第1のスイッチ素子をオンする。一方、第1の制御回路は、出力電圧が第2極性(正の極性)の場合において、第1のスイッチ素子をオフする。 The first control circuit turns on the first switch element when the output voltage of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator has the first polarity (negative polarity). On the other hand, the first control circuit turns off the first switch element when the output voltage has the second polarity (positive polarity).

 このため、従来技術において課題となっていた、負荷などから負サージが発生した場合、または、バッテリBの逆接時の逆電圧が印加される場合などにおいても、本発明に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、LED素子を保護するための追加のダイオードが、不要になる。 For this reason, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present invention has been a problem in the prior art even when a negative surge occurs from a load or the like, or when a reverse voltage at the time of reverse connection of the battery B is applied. Then, an additional diode for protecting the LED element is not necessary.
 したがって、本発明に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路は、ランプにLEDランプを適用して消費電力を低減することにより、単相交流発電機の負荷の低減を図りつつ、バッテリを搭載しない車両にも適用可能にすることができる。 Therefore, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present invention is also applied to a vehicle not equipped with a battery while reducing the power consumption by applying the LED lamp to the lamp to reduce the power consumption. Can be possible.

 出力端子TOUTは、負荷(図示せず)が接続されるようになっている。 The output terminal TOUT is connected to a load (not shown).
 接地端子TGは、接地が接続されるようになっている。 The ground terminal TG is connected to the ground.
 第1のスイッチ素子S1は、第1の入力端子TIN1に一端が接続され、第2の入力端子TIN2に他端が接続されている。 The first switch element S1 has one end connected to the first input terminal TIN1 and the other end connected to the second input terminal TIN2.
 この第1のスイッチ素子S1は、例えば、第1の入力端子TIN1にカソードが接続され、第2の入力端子TIN2にアノードが接続された第1のサイリスタである。 The first switch element S1 is, for example, a first thyristor having a cathode connected to the first input terminal TIN1 and an anode connected to the second input terminal TIN2.
 第1の制御回路CON1は、第1のスイッチ素子(第1のサイリスタ)S1のゲートに信号を出力することにより、第1のスイッチ素子S1を制御するようになっている。 The first control circuit CON1 controls the first switch element S1 by outputting a signal to the gate of the first switch element (first thyristor) S1.
 例えば、第1の制御回路CON1は、単相交流発電機Gから出力された第1の入力端子TIN1の出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、例えば、出力電圧の大きさが目標電圧以上になると、第1のスイッチ素子S1をオンするようになっている。 For example, when the output voltage of the first input terminal TIN1 output from the single-phase AC generator G is the first polarity (negative polarity), the first control circuit CON1 has, for example, the magnitude of the output voltage. When the voltage exceeds the target voltage, the first switch element S1 is turned on.
 一方、第1の制御回路CON1は、出力電圧が第2極性(正の極性)の場合において、第1のスイッチ素子S1をオフするようになっている。 On the other hand, the first control circuit CON1 is configured to turn off the first switch element S1 when the output voltage has the second polarity (positive polarity).
 なお、後述の実施例のように、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合に、LED素子Aに電力を供給するコンデンサ(図示せず)に所定レベルの電荷が充電されるまで、第1のスイッチ素子S1をオンするようにしてもよい。この場合、上記コンデンサに、所定レベルの電荷が充電された後、このコンデンサがある程度放電する(コンデンサがLED素子Aにある程度電力を供給する)まで、第1のスイッチ素子S1はオフされる。 In the case where the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity) as in the examples described later, until a predetermined level of charge is charged in a capacitor (not shown) that supplies power to the LED element A, The first switch element S1 may be turned on. In this case, after the capacitor is charged with a predetermined level of charge, the first switch element S1 is turned off until the capacitor is discharged to some extent (the capacitor supplies power to the LED element A to some extent).
 また、第2のスイッチ素子S2は、出力端子TOUTに一端が接続され、第1の入力端子TIN1に他端が接続されている。 Further, one end of the second switch element S2 is connected to the output terminal TOUT, and the other end is connected to the first input terminal TIN1.
 この第2のスイッチ素子S2は、出力端子TOUTにカソードが接続され、第1の入力端子TIN1にアノードが接続された第2のサイリスタである。 The second switch element S2 is a second thyristor having a cathode connected to the output terminal TOUT and an anode connected to the first input terminal TIN1.
 第2の制御回路CON2は、第2のスイッチ素子(第2のサイリスタ)S2のゲートに信号を出力することにより、第2のスイッチ素子(第2のサイリスタ)S2を制御するようになっている。 The second control circuit CON2 controls the second switch element (second thyristor) S2 by outputting a signal to the gate of the second switch element (second thyristor) S2. .
 この第2の制御回路CON2は、第1の入力端子TIN1と接地端子TGとの間の電圧、及び出力端子TOUTと接地端子TGとの間の電圧に基づいて、第2のスイッチ素子S2を制御するようになっている。 The second control circuit CON2 controls the second switch element S2 based on the voltage between the first input terminal TIN1 and the ground terminal TG and the voltage between the output terminal TOUT and the ground terminal TG. It is supposed to be.
 例えば、第2の制御回路CON2は、出力電圧が第2極性(正の極性)の場合において、出力端子TOUTと接地との間に接続されたバッテリBの充電電圧が規定電圧未満のときは、第2のサイリスタS2をオンするようになっている。 For example, when the output voltage is the second polarity (positive polarity) and the charging voltage of the battery B connected between the output terminal TOUT and the ground is less than the specified voltage, the second control circuit CON2 The second thyristor S2 is turned on.
 一方、第2の制御回路CON2は、バッテリBの充電電圧が規定電圧以上のときは、第2のサイリスタS2をオフするようになっている。 On the other hand, the second control circuit CON2 is configured to turn off the second thyristor S2 when the charging voltage of the battery B is equal to or higher than the specified voltage.
 次に、以上のような構成を有するLEDランプ点灯制御システム1000におけるLEDランプ点灯制御回路100によるLEDランプ点灯制御方法の一例について、説明する。 Next, an example of the LED lamp lighting control method by the LED lamp lighting control circuit 100 in the LED lamp lighting control system 1000 having the above configuration will be described.
 例えば、第1の制御回路CON1は、単相交流発電機Gから出力された第1の入力端子TIN1の出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、例えば、出力電圧の大きさが目標電圧以上になると、第1のスイッチ素子S1をオンする。 For example, when the output voltage of the first input terminal TIN1 output from the single-phase AC generator G is the first polarity (negative polarity), the first control circuit CON1 has, for example, the magnitude of the output voltage. When the voltage exceeds the target voltage, the first switch element S1 is turned on.
 これにより、単相交流発電機Aの出力電圧の負側の成分が複数のLED素子Aに供給される。 Thereby, the negative component of the output voltage of the single-phase AC generator A is supplied to the plurality of LED elements A.
 すなわち、LEDランプ点灯制御回路100は、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、出力電圧の大きさが目標電圧以上になると、LED素子Aを点灯させる。 That is, when the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity), the LED lamp lighting control circuit 100 lights the LED element A when the magnitude of the output voltage is equal to or higher than the target voltage.
 一方、第1の制御回路CON1は、出力電圧が第2極性(正の極性)の場合において、第1のスイッチ素子S1をオフする。 On the other hand, the first control circuit CON1 turns off the first switch element S1 when the output voltage is the second polarity (positive polarity).
 これにより、単相交流発電機Aの出力電圧の正側の成分が複数のLED素子Aに供給されない。 Thereby, the positive component of the output voltage of the single-phase AC generator A is not supplied to the plurality of LED elements A.
 また、例えば、第2の制御回路CON2は、出力電圧が第2の極性(正の極性)の場合において、出力端子TOUTと接地との間に接続されたバッテリBの充電電圧が規定電圧未満のときは、第2のサイリスタS2をオンする。 Further, for example, when the output voltage is the second polarity (positive polarity), the second control circuit CON2 is such that the charging voltage of the battery B connected between the output terminal TOUT and the ground is less than the specified voltage. When the second thyristor S2 is turned on.
 これにより、単相交流発電機Aの出力電圧の正側の成分がバッテリBに供給され、バッテリBが充電される。 Thereby, the positive component of the output voltage of the single-phase AC generator A is supplied to the battery B, and the battery B is charged.
 また、第2の制御回路CON2は、バッテリBの充電電圧が規定電圧以上のときは、第2のサイリスタS2をオフする。 The second control circuit CON2 turns off the second thyristor S2 when the charging voltage of the battery B is equal to or higher than the specified voltage.
 これにより、バッテリBが過充電されないようになっている。 This prevents battery B from being overcharged.
 以上のように、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路は、第1の入力端子に一端が接続され、第2の入力端子に他端が接続された第1のスイッチ素子(第1のサイリスタ)と、第1のスイッチ素子を制御する第1の制御回路と、出力端子に一端が接続され、第1の入力端子に他端が接続された第2のスイッチ素子(第2のサイリスタ)と、第2のスイッチ素子を制御する第2の制御回路と、を備える。 As described above, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment has the first switch element (first thyristor) having one end connected to the first input terminal and the other end connected to the second input terminal. ), A first control circuit for controlling the first switch element, a second switch element (second thyristor) having one end connected to the output terminal and the other end connected to the first input terminal And a second control circuit for controlling the second switch element.
 第1の制御回路は、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、出力電圧が目標電圧以上になると、第1のスイッチ素子をオンする。一方、第1の制御回路は、出力電圧が第2極性(正の極性)の場合において、第1のスイッチ素子をオフする。 When the output voltage of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator is the first polarity (negative polarity) and the output voltage becomes equal to or higher than the target voltage, the first control circuit Turn on the element. On the other hand, the first control circuit turns off the first switch element when the output voltage has the second polarity (positive polarity).
 これにより、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の第1極性(負の極性)の出力電圧がLEDランプに供給される。一方、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の第2極性(正の極性)の出力電圧はLEDランプ(LED素子A)に供給されない。 Thereby, the output voltage of the first polarity (negative polarity) of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator is supplied to the LED lamp. On the other hand, the output voltage of the second polarity (positive polarity) of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator is not supplied to the LED lamp (LED element A).
 すなわち、単相交流発電機で発電された電力の負の成分がLEDランプに供給される。 That is, the negative component of the electric power generated by the single-phase AC generator is supplied to the LED lamp.
 さらに、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、第1のスイッチ素子(第1のサイリスタ)により電流が制限される。 Furthermore, in the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment, the current is limited by the first switch element (first thyristor).
 このため、従来技術において課題となっていた、負荷などから負サージが発生した場合、または、バッテリの逆接時の逆電圧が印加される場合などにおいても、本発明に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、LED素子を保護するための追加のダイオードが、不要になる。 For this reason, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present invention also has a problem in the prior art, such as when a negative surge occurs from a load or when a reverse voltage is applied when the battery is reversely connected. An additional diode for protecting the LED element is not necessary.
 さらに、従来技術では、例えば、バッテリBの出力電流を制限してLEDを点灯させる場合、LEDの直列接続数が増加してLEDの順方向降下電圧VFの合計が12V以上になると、LED素子を点灯させることができない。例えば、白色LEDの順方向降下電圧VFは、1個あたり3~4Vあるので、4個以上の直列接続では点灯できない。 Further, in the prior art, for example, when the LED is turned on by limiting the output current of the battery B, when the total number of LEDs connected in series increases and the total forward drop voltage VF of the LED becomes 12 V or more, the LED element is Cannot be lit. For example, since the forward voltage drop VF of the white LED is 3 to 4 V per one, it cannot be lit with four or more connected in series.
 一方、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、単相交流発電機の負側の電圧を全てLED点灯に使用する。 On the other hand, in the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment, all of the negative side voltage of the single-phase AC generator is used for LED lighting.
 そして、単相交流発電機は、通常、バッテリを充電するためにピーク電圧はバッテリ電圧以上になるよう設計される。アイドリングなど単相交流発電機の回転数の低い時でも、充電量が確保できるように、例えば、1000rpmで20V、1500rpmで30V程度の電圧を発生させる。この電圧を使ってLED素子を点灯させることができるので4個以上の直列接続されたLED素子でも点灯させることができる。 And, the single-phase AC generator is usually designed so that the peak voltage is higher than the battery voltage in order to charge the battery. For example, a voltage of about 20 V at 1000 rpm and about 30 V at 1500 rpm is generated so that the amount of charge can be secured even when the rotational speed of the single-phase AC generator is low, such as idling. Since the LED element can be lit using this voltage, even four or more LED elements connected in series can be lit.
 したがって、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路は、ランプにLEDランプを適用して消費電力を低減することにより、単相交流発電機の負荷の低減を図りつつ、バッテリを搭載しない車両にも適用可能にすることができる。 Therefore, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment reduces the power consumption by applying the LED lamp to the lamp, thereby reducing the load on the single-phase AC generator and also for the vehicle not equipped with a battery. Can be made applicable.

 ダイオードDは、第1の分圧抵抗DR1の他端にアノードが接続されている。 The anode of the diode D is connected to the other end of the first voltage dividing resistor DR1.
 平均化コンデンサCaは、ダイオードDのカソードと接地端子TGとの間に接続されている。 The averaging capacitor Ca is connected between the cathode of the diode D and the ground terminal TG.
 発振回路OSCは、ノコギリ波または三角波である発振信号を生成し出力するようになっている。 The oscillation circuit OSC generates and outputs an oscillation signal that is a sawtooth wave or a triangular wave.
 平均化抵抗Raは、ダイオードのカソードに一端が接続されている。 The averaging resistor Ra has one end connected to the cathode of the diode.
 抵抗RYは、コンパレータCOMPの出力とサイリスタS1のゲートとの間に接続されている。 The resistor RY is connected between the output of the comparator COMP and the gate of the thyristor S1.
 コンパレータCOMPは、抵抗RYを介して、第1のサイリスタS1のゲートに信号を出力することにより、第1のサイリスタS1の動作を制御するようになっている。 The comparator COMP controls the operation of the first thyristor S1 by outputting a signal to the gate of the first thyristor S1 via the resistor RY.
 このコンパレータCOMPは、発振信号と平均化抵抗Raの他端の比較電圧とが入力され、発振信号と比較電圧とを比較した結果に基づいて、第1のサイリスタS1を制御するようになっている。 The comparator COMP receives the oscillation signal and the comparison voltage at the other end of the averaging resistor Ra, and controls the first thyristor S1 based on the result of comparing the oscillation signal with the comparison voltage. .
 例えば、コンパレータCOMPは、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、比較電圧の大きさが発振信号の大きさ未満のときは、第1のサイリスタS1をオフするようになっている。 For example, the comparator COMP is configured to turn off the first thyristor S1 when the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity) and the magnitude of the comparison voltage is less than the magnitude of the oscillation signal. .
 また、コンパレータCOMPは、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、比較電圧の大きさが発振信号の大きさ以上のときは、第1のサイリスタS1をオンするようになっている。 The comparator COMP turns on the first thyristor S1 when the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity) and the magnitude of the comparison voltage is greater than or equal to the magnitude of the oscillation signal. .
 一方、コンパレータCOMPは、出力電圧が第2の極性(正の極性)の場合において、第1のサイリスタS1をオフするようになっている。 On the other hand, the comparator COMP is configured to turn off the first thyristor S1 when the output voltage is the second polarity (positive polarity).
 次に、以上のような構成を有するLEDランプ点灯制御システム2000におけるLEDランプ点灯制御回路200によるLEDランプ点灯制御方法の一例について、説明する。 Next, an example of the LED lamp lighting control method by the LED lamp lighting control circuit 200 in the LED lamp lighting control system 2000 having the above configuration will be described.
 例えば、LEDランプ点灯制御回路200(コンパレータCOMP)は、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、比較電圧の大きさが発振信号の大きさ未満のときは、第1のサイリスタS1をオフする。 For example, when the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity) and the magnitude of the comparison voltage is less than the magnitude of the oscillation signal, the LED lamp lighting control circuit 200 (comparator COMP) has the first thyristor S1. Turn off.
 これにより、単相交流発電機Aの出力電圧の負側の成分は、この負側の成分が所定の大きさ(目標電圧)未満のときに、複数のLED素子Aに供給されない。 Thus, the negative component of the output voltage of the single-phase AC generator A is not supplied to the plurality of LED elements A when the negative component is less than a predetermined magnitude (target voltage).
 また、LEDランプ点灯制御回路200(コンパレータCOMP)は、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、比較電圧の大きさが発振信号の大きさ以上のときは、第1のサイリスタS1をオンする。 Further, the LED lamp lighting control circuit 200 (comparator COMP) has a first thyristor S1 when the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity) and the comparison voltage is larger than the oscillation signal. Turn on.
 これにより、単相交流発電機Aの出力電圧の負側の成分は、この負側の成分が所定の大きさ(目標電圧)以上になると、複数のLED素子Aに供給される。 Thus, the negative side component of the output voltage of the single-phase AC generator A is supplied to the plurality of LED elements A when the negative side component becomes a predetermined magnitude (target voltage) or more.
 一方、LEDランプ点灯制御回路200(コンパレータCOMP)は、出力電圧が第2の極性(正の極性)の場合において、第1のサイリスタS1をオフするようになっている。 On the other hand, the LED lamp lighting control circuit 200 (comparator COMP) turns off the first thyristor S1 when the output voltage has the second polarity (positive polarity).
 これにより、単相交流発電機Aの出力電圧の正側の成分が複数のLED素子Aに供給されない。 Thereby, the positive component of the output voltage of the single-phase AC generator A is not supplied to the plurality of LED elements A.
 なお、LEDランプ点灯制御回路200のその他の動作は、実施例1に示すLEDランプ点灯制御回路100の動作と同様である。 The other operations of the LED lamp lighting control circuit 200 are the same as the operations of the LED lamp lighting control circuit 100 shown in the first embodiment.
 以上のように、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路は、実施例1と同様に、第1の入力端子に一端が接続され、第2の入力端子に他端が接続された第1のスイッチ素子(第1のサイリスタ)と、第1のスイッチ素子を制御する第1の制御回路と、出力端子に一端が接続され、第1の入力端子に他端が接続された第2のスイッチ素子(第2のサイリスタ)と、第2のスイッチ素子を制御する第2の制御回路と、を備える。 As described above, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment is similar to the first embodiment in that the first input terminal is connected to the first input terminal and the other end is connected to the second input terminal. A switch element (first thyristor), a first control circuit for controlling the first switch element, and a second switch element having one end connected to the output terminal and the other end connected to the first input terminal (Second thyristor) and a second control circuit for controlling the second switch element.
 第1の制御回路は、実施例1と同様に、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、第1のスイッチ素子をオンする。一方、第1の制御回路は、実施例1と同様に、出力電圧が第2極性(正の極性)の場合において、第1のスイッチ素子をオフする。 As in the first embodiment, the first control circuit sets the first switch element when the output voltage of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator is the first polarity (negative polarity). Turn on. On the other hand, as in the first embodiment, the first control circuit turns off the first switch element when the output voltage has the second polarity (positive polarity).
 これにより、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の第1極性(負の極性)の出力電圧がLEDランプに供給される。一方、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の第2極性(正の極性)の出力電圧はLEDランプ(LED素子A)に供給されない。 Thereby, the output voltage of the first polarity (negative polarity) of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator is supplied to the LED lamp. On the other hand, the output voltage of the second polarity (positive polarity) of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator is not supplied to the LED lamp (LED element A).
 すなわち、単相交流発電機で発電された電力の負の成分がLEDランプに供給される。 That is, the negative component of the electric power generated by the single-phase AC generator is supplied to the LED lamp.
 さらに、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、第1のスイッチ素子(第1のサイリスタ)により電流が制限される。 Furthermore, in the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment, the current is limited by the first switch element (first thyristor).
 このため、従来技術において課題となっていた、負荷などから負サージが発生した場合、または、バッテリBの逆接時の逆電圧が印加される場合などにおいても、本発明に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、LED素子を保護するための追加のダイオードが、不要になる。 For this reason, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present invention has been a problem in the prior art even when a negative surge occurs from a load or the like, or when a reverse voltage at the time of reverse connection of the battery B is applied. Then, an additional diode for protecting the LED element is not necessary.
 さらに、既述のように、従来技術では、例えば、バッテリBの出力電流を制限してLEDを点灯させる場合、LEDの直列接続数が増加してLEDの順方向降下電圧VFの合計が12V以上になると、LED素子を点灯させることができない。例えば、白色LEDの順方向降下電圧VFは、1個あたり3~4Vあるので、4個以上の直列接続では点灯できない。 Further, as described above, in the conventional technique, for example, when the LED B is turned on by limiting the output current of the battery B, the number of LEDs connected in series increases and the total forward drop voltage VF of the LED is 12 V or more. Then, the LED element cannot be turned on. For example, since the forward voltage drop VF of the white LED is 3 to 4 V per one, it cannot be lit with four or more connected in series.
 一方、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、単相交流発電機の負側の電圧を全てLED点灯に使用する。 On the other hand, in the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment, all of the negative side voltage of the single-phase AC generator is used for LED lighting.
 そして、単相交流発電機は、通常、バッテリを充電するためにピーク電圧はバッテリ電圧以上になるよう設計される。アイドリングなど単相交流発電機の回転数の低い時でも、充電量が確保できるように、例えば、1000rpmで20V、1500rpmで30V程度の電圧を発生させる。この電圧を使ってLED素子を点灯させることができるので4個以上の直列接続されたLED素子でも点灯させることができる。 And, the single-phase AC generator is usually designed so that the peak voltage is higher than the battery voltage in order to charge the battery. For example, a voltage of about 20 V at 1000 rpm and about 30 V at 1500 rpm is generated so that the amount of charge can be secured even when the rotational speed of the single-phase AC generator is low, such as idling. Since the LED element can be lit using this voltage, even four or more LED elements connected in series can be lit.
 したがって、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路は、実施例1と同様に、ランプにLEDランプを適用して消費電力を低減することにより、単相交流発電機の負荷の低減を図りつつ、バッテリを搭載しない車両にも適用可能にすることができる。 Therefore, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment, like the first embodiment, reduces the power consumption by applying the LED lamp to the lamp, thereby reducing the load of the single-phase AC generator, It can be applied to a vehicle not equipped with a battery.
 本実施例3においては、LEDランプ点灯制御回路の第1の制御回路の構成を具体的にした構成の他の例について説明する。 In the third embodiment, another example of a specific configuration of the first control circuit of the LED lamp lighting control circuit will be described.

For example, the target voltage of the output voltage that causes the LED element A to emit light can be adjusted by adjusting the breakdown voltage of the Schottky barrier diode DX.

 この第2のコンデンサC2は、LED素子Aを発光させるための電力を蓄積するようになっている。したがって、第2のコンデンサC2の容量値は、第1のコンデンサC1の容量値よりも大きくなるように設定されている。 The second capacitor C2 stores electric power for causing the LED element A to emit light. Therefore, the capacitance value of the second capacitor C2 is set to be larger than the capacitance value of the first capacitor C1.
 また、既述のように、第2の入力端子TIN2と接地との間で、電流を制限する制限抵抗RXが、LED素子Aと直列に、接続されている。 Further, as described above, the limiting resistor RX for limiting the current is connected in series with the LED element A between the second input terminal TIN2 and the ground.
 次に、以上のような構成を有するLEDランプ点灯制御システム3000におけるLEDランプ点灯制御回路300によるLEDランプ点灯制御方法の一例について、説明する。 Next, an example of the LED lamp lighting control method by the LED lamp lighting control circuit 300 in the LED lamp lighting control system 3000 having the above configuration will be described.
 先ず、例えば、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、第1のコンデンサC1の充電電圧が低いとき、ショットキーバリアダイオードDXがオフし、第1のPNP型バイポーラトランジスタTr1がオフし、第2のPNP型バイポーラトランジスタTr2がオンする。 First, for example, when the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity), when the charging voltage of the first capacitor C1 is low, the Schottky barrier diode DX is turned off and the first PNP-type bipolar transistor Tr1 is turned off. Then, the second PNP bipolar transistor Tr2 is turned on.
 これにより、第1のサイリスタS1がオンし、LED素子Aは、第1極性(負の極性)の電流が流れて発光するとともに、第2のコンデンサC2が充電される。 
 すなわち、LEDランプ点灯制御回路300は、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、第1のサイリスタS1をオンする。
As a result, the first thyristor S1 is turned on, and the LED element A emits light when a first polarity (negative polarity) current flows, and the second capacitor C2 is charged.
That is, the LED lamp lighting control circuit 300 turns on the first thyristor S1 when the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity).
 そして、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、第1のコンデンサC1の充電電圧が高くなると、ショットキーバリアダイオードDXがオンし、第1のPNP型バイポーラトランジスタTr1がオンし、第2のPNP型バイポーラトランジスタTr2がオフする。 When the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity), when the charging voltage of the first capacitor C1 is increased, the Schottky barrier diode DX is turned on, the first PNP bipolar transistor Tr1 is turned on, The second PNP bipolar transistor Tr2 is turned off.
 これにより、第1のサイリスタS1がオフする。このとき、LED素子Aは、第2のコンデンサC2に蓄積された電力により発光する。 Thereby, the first thyristor S1 is turned off. At this time, the LED element A emits light by the electric power stored in the second capacitor C2.
 したがって、本実施例3においては、出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、第1のサイリスタS1がオフに制御され得る。 Therefore, in the third embodiment, when the output voltage is the first polarity (negative polarity), the first thyristor S1 can be controlled to be turned off.
 一方、例えば、出力電圧が第2極性(正の極性)の場合において、第2のPNP型バイポーラトランジスタTr2がオフする。 On the other hand, for example, when the output voltage has the second polarity (positive polarity), the second PNP-type bipolar transistor Tr2 is turned off.
 これにより、第1のサイリスタS1がオフする。このとき、LED素子Aは、第2のコンデンサC2に蓄積された電力により発光する。 Thereby, the first thyristor S1 is turned off. At this time, the LED element A emits light by the electric power stored in the second capacitor C2.
 すなわち、LEDランプ点灯制御回路300は、出力電圧が第2の極性(正の極性)の場合において、第1のサイリスタS1をオフするようになっている。 That is, the LED lamp lighting control circuit 300 is configured to turn off the first thyristor S1 when the output voltage has the second polarity (positive polarity).
 これにより、単相交流発電機Aの出力電圧の正側の成分が複数のLED素子Aに供給されない。 Thereby, the positive component of the output voltage of the single-phase AC generator A is not supplied to the plurality of LED elements A.
 なお、LEDランプ点灯制御回路300のその他の動作は、実施例1に示すLEDランプ点灯制御回路100の動作と同様である。 The other operations of the LED lamp lighting control circuit 300 are the same as the operations of the LED lamp lighting control circuit 100 shown in the first embodiment.
 以上のように、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路は、実施例1と同様に、第1の入力端子に一端が接続され、第2の入力端子に他端が接続された第1のスイッチ素子(第1のサイリスタ)と、第1のスイッチ素子を制御する第1の制御回路と、出力端子に一端が接続され、第1の入力端子に他端が接続された第2のスイッチ素子(第2のサイリスタ)と、第2のスイッチ素子を制御する第2の制御回路と、を備える。 As described above, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment is similar to the first embodiment in that the first input terminal is connected to the first input terminal and the other end is connected to the second input terminal. A switch element (first thyristor), a first control circuit for controlling the first switch element, and a second switch element having one end connected to the output terminal and the other end connected to the first input terminal (Second thyristor) and a second control circuit for controlling the second switch element.
 第1の制御回路は、実施例1と同様に、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の出力電圧が第1極性(負の極性)の場合において、第1のスイッチ素子をオンする。一方、第1の制御回路は、実施例1と同様に、出力電圧が第2極性(正の極性)の場合において、第1のスイッチ素子をオフする。 As in the first embodiment, the first control circuit sets the first switch element when the output voltage of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator is the first polarity (negative polarity). Turn on. On the other hand, as in the first embodiment, the first control circuit turns off the first switch element when the output voltage has the second polarity (positive polarity).
 これにより、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の第1極性(負の極性)の出力電圧がLEDランプに供給される。一方、単相交流発電機から出力された第1の入力端子の第2極性(正の極性)の出力電圧はLEDランプ(LED素子A)に供給されない。 Thereby, the output voltage of the first polarity (negative polarity) of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator is supplied to the LED lamp. On the other hand, the output voltage of the second polarity (positive polarity) of the first input terminal output from the single-phase AC generator is not supplied to the LED lamp (LED element A).
 すなわち、単相交流発電機で発電された電力の負の成分がLEDランプに供給される。 That is, the negative component of the electric power generated by the single-phase AC generator is supplied to the LED lamp.
 さらに、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、第1のスイッチ素子(第1のサイリスタ)により電流が制限される。 Furthermore, in the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment, the current is limited by the first switch element (first thyristor).
 このため、従来技術において課題となっていた、負荷などから負サージが発生した場合、または、バッテリBの逆接時の逆電圧が印加される場合などにおいても、本発明に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、LED素子を保護するための追加のダイオードが、不要になる。 For this reason, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present invention has been a problem in the prior art even when a negative surge occurs from a load or the like, or when a reverse voltage at the time of reverse connection of the battery B is applied. Then, an additional diode for protecting the LED element is not necessary.
 さらに、既述のように、従来技術では、例えば、バッテリBの出力電流を制限してLEDを点灯させる場合、LEDの直列接続数が増加してLEDの順方向降下電圧VFの合計が12V以上になると、LED素子を点灯させることができない。例えば、白色LEDの順方向降下電圧VFは、1個あたり3~4Vあるので、4個以上の直列接続では点灯できない。 Further, as described above, in the conventional technique, for example, when the LED B is turned on by limiting the output current of the battery B, the number of LEDs connected in series increases and the total forward drop voltage VF of the LED is 12 V or more. Then, the LED element cannot be turned on. For example, since the forward voltage drop VF of the white LED is 3 to 4 V per one, it cannot be lit with four or more connected in series.
 一方、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路では、単相交流発電機の負側の電圧を全てLED点灯に使用する。 On the other hand, in the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment, all of the negative side voltage of the single-phase AC generator is used for LED lighting.
 そして、単相交流発電機は、通常、バッテリを充電するためにピーク電圧はバッテリ電圧以上になるよう設計される。アイドリングなど単相交流発電機の回転数の低い時でも、充電量が確保できるように、例えば、1000rpmで20V、1500rpmで30V程度の電圧を発生させる。この電圧を使ってLED素子を点灯させることができるので4個以上の直列接続されたLED素子でも点灯させることができる。 And, the single-phase AC generator is usually designed so that the peak voltage is higher than the battery voltage in order to charge the battery. For example, a voltage of about 20 V at 1000 rpm and about 30 V at 1500 rpm is generated so that the amount of charge can be secured even when the rotational speed of the single-phase AC generator is low, such as idling. Since the LED element can be lit using this voltage, even four or more LED elements connected in series can be lit.
 したがって、本実施例に係るLEDランプ点灯制御回路は、実施例1と同様に、ランプにLEDランプを適用して消費電力を低減することにより、単相交流発電機の負荷の低減を図りつつ、バッテリを搭載しない車両にも適用可能にすることができる。 Therefore, the LED lamp lighting control circuit according to the present embodiment, like the first embodiment, reduces the power consumption by applying the LED lamp to the lamp, thereby reducing the load of the single-phase AC generator, It can be applied to a vehicle not equipped with a battery.
 なお、実施例は例示であり、発明の範囲はそれらに限定されない。 In addition, an Example is an illustration and the range of invention is not limited to them.
