Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a power supply apparatus.
  • a related art inverter device generates a DC power supply from an AC power supply, acquires an AC output from a DC output through a smoothing circuit composed of a reactor and a smoothing capacitor by controlling turn-on/off of a switching device of an inverter circuit, and applies high-frequency AC power to a heating coil for induction heating.
  • a discharge resistor for discharging the smoothing capacitor with a predetermined discharge time constant is connected in parallel to the smoothing capacitor (see, e.g., JP3419641B2).
  • the smoothing capacitor When the discharge resistor is connected in parallel to the smoothing capacitor, power is always consumed by the discharge resistor. When the resistance value of the discharge resistor is increased to reduce the power consumed by the discharge resistor, the discharge time constant is increased, and quite a long time is required for discharging the smoothing capacitor. When charge is left in the smoothing capacitor, the charge may serve as an obstacle to checking or repairing the circuit. Thus, when an abnormality occurs in the apparatus, the smoothing capacitor is required to be rapidly discharged (e.g., within 10 seconds).
  • the related art inverter device is used for induction heating of a cooking utensil such as a pan, and has a relatively small output, and the smoothing capacitor also has a relatively low capacitance. Therefore, although the resistance value of the discharge resistor is increased to raise the discharge time constant, the influence is slight. As an example, when the smoothing capacitor has a capacitance of 9 ⁇ F and the discharge resistor has a resistance value of 240 k ⁇ , the discharge time constant is set to about 2 seconds.
  • a smoothing capacitor also has a high capacitance.
  • the power supply apparatus used for welding an electric resistance welded tube is required to have a low ripple, and the smoothing capacitor used for this kind of power supply apparatus has an extremely high capacitance of tens of thousands of ⁇ F.
  • the capacitance of the smoothing capacitor is as high as the above value, the increase in resistance value of the discharge resistor significantly raises the discharge time constant.
  • the resistance value of the discharge resistor is decreased, the amount of power consumed by the discharge resistor is increased.
  • a plurality of resistors may be needed in the relationship between the power consumption and the rating of the resistor. In this case, the manufacturing cost and operation cost of the power supply apparatus may be increased while the size of the power supply apparatus is increased.
  • Illustrative aspects of the present invention provide a power supply apparatus which can rapidly discharge a capacitor included in a smoothing unit in case of an abnormality, and reduce a loss at normal times.
  • a power supply apparatus includes a rectifier configured to convert AC power into DC power, the AC power being supplied from an AC power supply, a smoothing unit configured to smooth the DC power output from the rectifier, the DC power containing a ripple, an inverter configured to convert the DC power smoothed by the smoothing unit into the AC power, a casing in which the rectifier, the smoothing unit and the inverter are accommodated, and an abnormality detection unit configured to detect an abnormality of at least one of the rectifier, the inverter and the casing.
  • the smoothing unit includes at least one capacitor connected in parallel to an output of the rectifier, a first discharge resistor configured to discharge the capacitor, and a switching device connected in series to the first discharge resistor. The switching device is closed by the abnormality detection unit when an abnormality is detected by the abnormality detection unit, and the capacitor is discharged by the first discharge resistor when the switching device is closed.

  • the capacitor 10 is connected in parallel to the output of the rectifier 3, and removes or reduces a ripple included in the DC power of the rectifier 3.
  • the capacitance of the capacitor 10 is properly set depending on an output of the power supply apparatus 1. For example, when the output of the power supply apparatus 1 is set to about 300 kW, the capacitance of the capacitor 10 can be set to about 20,000 ⁇ F (however, the capacitance is a value of a power supply apparatus with a significantly low ripple). At this time, an electrolytic capacitor whose capacitance can be easily increased may be used as the capacitor 10, but the capacitor 10 is not limited to the electrolytic capacitor.
  • the reactor 11 is interposed between a positive electrode of the output of the rectifier 3 and a terminal of the capacitor 10 connected to the positive electrode side.

  • the breaker 6 cuts off power supply to the rectifier 3 when an over-current flows from the AC power supply 2 to the rectifier 3, and transmits an abnormality signal indicating an abnormality of the rectifier 3 to the control unit 8 when cutting off the power supply to the rectifier 3.
  • the control unit 8 includes a processor as a main part, for example.
  • the control unit 8 controls a switching operation of the power semiconductor device of the inverter 5, and controls the conduction of a semiconductor device such as a thyristor when the semiconductor device is used in the rectifier 3.

  • the capacitor 10 When the switching device 14 is closed, the capacitor 10 is discharged through the first discharge resistor 12 in addition to the second discharge resistor 13.
  • the resistance value (e.g., several hundreds of ⁇ ) of the first discharge resistor 12 is smaller than the resistance value (e.g., several tens of k ⁇ to several hundreds of k ⁇ ) of the second discharge resistor 13, and a most portion of charge stored in the capacitor 10 flows to the first discharge resistor 12.
  • the discharge resistor has a smaller resistance value with respect to an inter-terminal voltage of the capacitor 10, the current flowing through the discharge resistor increases.
  • the capacitor 10 can be rapidly discharged by the first discharge resistor 12 having a small resistance value. For example, when the capacitor 10 has a capacitance of 20,000 ⁇ F and the first discharge resistor 12 has a resistance value of 300 ⁇ , a discharge time constant is set to about six seconds.
  • a resistor to which electricity is conducted at all times is operated at about 1/4 of the rated power.
  • the switching device 14 is closed in case of an abnormality, the charge stored in the capacitor 10 only flows to the first discharge resistor 12, and heat generation associated with the conduction of the first discharge resistor 12 is temporary.

Therefore, the phase shift between the current I1 and the voltage V1 can be detected through the simple circuit configuration.
  • the abnormality detection circuit 31 includes the mask unit 57 which compares the current value of the current I1 supplied to the load 9 to the preset reference value, and continuously outputs the reset signal to the data flip-flop 52 until the value of the current I1 becomes higher than the reference value.
  • the phase shift detection operation of the abnormality detection circuit 31 is temporarily paused, which makes it possible to prevent the power supply apparatus 1 from being forcibly stopped immediately after the power supply apparatus 1 has been activated.
  • the abnormality detection unit which is constituted by the breaker 6 and the control unit 8 and detects an abnormality of the rectifier 3, the abnormality detection unit which is constituted by the door opening detection unit and the control unit 8 and detects an abnormality of the casing 7, and the abnormality detection unit which is constituted by the current transformer 32, the voltage transformer 33 and the control unit 8 including the abnormality detection circuit 31 and detects an abnormality of the inverter 5 may be independently used or combined and used.
