[0041] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0042] The igniter discharge method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to burner stoves. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a burner stove provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the burner stove includes a controller 101 , a DC power supply 102 and a boost energy storage circuit 103 .

[0043] The controller 101 is connected to the DC power supply 102 and the boost energy storage circuit 103, and is used to obtain the current power supply voltage of the DC power supply in the current ignition cycle. And according to the current power supply voltage, the initial duty cycle and the target duty cycle step of the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal output to the boost energy storage circuit are determined. And starting from the first PWM cycle, according to the initial duty cycle, the target duty cycle step and the cycle sequence number of the current PWM cycle, the target duty cycle corresponding to the current PWM cycle is determined, and in the current PWM cycle, a PWM signal with a target duty cycle is output to the boost energy storage circuit to detect the energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit. Further, if the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit is greater than or equal to the energy storage voltage threshold or the target duty cycle reaches the preset duty cycle threshold, then in each subsequent PWM cycle, a PWM signal with a target duty cycle is output to the boost energy storage circuit until the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit reaches the discharge voltage.

[0044] The DC power supply 102 is connected to the boost tank circuit 103 and is used to output a PWM signal to the boost tank circuit 103 according to a target duty cycle corresponding to the PWM cycle.

[0045] The boost tank circuit 103 is used to receive the PWM signal output by the DC power supply 102. When the controller 101 detects that the energy storage voltage of the boost tank circuit 103 reaches the discharge voltage, the controller 101 controls the boost tank circuit 103 to perform high-voltage discharge.

[0046] The following will describe in detail an igniter discharge method provided by an embodiment of the present application in combination with a specific implementation method. Figure 2 A flow chart of an igniter discharge method provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the specific steps are as follows:

[0047] Step 201, in the current ignition cycle, obtaining the current power supply voltage of the DC power supply.

[0048] In practice, the burner stove uses high-voltage discharge to ignite. Among them, the burner stove includes a DC power supply and a boost energy storage circuit. Burner stoves are also widely used in households, and they need to be able to ignite when there is a power outage, so it is necessary for the DC power supply of the burner stove to be a battery. Among them, the battery can be single or double. The voltage of high-voltage discharge requires more than 10,000 volts, so the burner stove can be boosted by a two-stage transformer for inverter boosting. As the burner stove is used, the battery power becomes lower, the battery voltage becomes lower, and the voltage provided for ignition in the same time decreases, so the time to reach the high voltage during discharge also increases, resulting in a decrease in the discharge frequency, resulting in a low ignition reliability of the burner stove. The discreteness of the inductance parameters of the same model of transformers and the large differences in burners and stoves will also lead to excessive or too small discharge frequencies. If the discharge frequency is too low, it will be difficult to ignite and easy to explode; if the ignition frequency is too high, the battery power consumption is too large, and the battery life is short, resulting in low ignition reliability of the burner stove. Therefore, in each ignition cycle, it is necessary to obtain the current power supply voltage of the DC power supply, and adjust the discharge frequency of the burner stove according to the current power supply voltage. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the current power supply voltage of the DC power supply in the current ignition cycle.

[0049] Step 202: Determine an initial duty cycle and a target duty cycle step size of a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal output to the boost tank circuit according to the current power supply voltage.

[0050] In implementation, when the voltage output by the DC power supply to the boost energy storage circuit reaches the discharge voltage, the boost energy storage circuit can perform high-voltage discharge ignition. If the discharge frequency of the burner stove is to be constant, the charging time of the boost energy storage circuit is also constant. That is to say, within a fixed discharge time, the voltage output by the power supply voltage to the boost energy storage circuit needs to reach the discharge voltage, so that the ignition frequency of the burner stove can be controlled within a suitable and fixed range. In order to control the voltage output to the boost energy storage circuit, since the total resistance of the boost energy storage circuit is constant, it is to control the current output to the boost energy storage circuit. As the battery is used in the operation of the burner stove, the voltage of the battery will gradually decrease. If the DC power supply is controlled to output a constant current to the boost energy storage circuit, the voltage of the boost energy storage circuit changes linearly. Since the discharge voltage of the boost energy storage circuit is constant, by controlling the current output by the DC power supply to the boost energy storage circuit, the time for the voltage of the boost energy storage circuit to reach the discharge voltage can be controlled, thereby controlling the discharge frequency. That is to say, the discharge frequency of the burner stove can be controlled by the current output from the DC power supply to the boost energy storage circuit. Therefore, a periodic pulse width modulation PWM method can be used to control the current output from the DC power supply to the boost energy storage circuit. Since the voltage of the boost energy storage circuit needs to reach the ignition voltage within a fixed charging time, the PWM cycle method can be used so that the cycle length of the PWM cycle is also fixed. In this way, the total number of cycles can be determined based on the charging time and a PWM cycle length, making the current control more accurate. In this way, the initial duty cycle and target duty cycle step of the pulse width modulation PWM signal output by the boost energy storage circuit can be determined based on the current power supply voltage. Among them, when the PWM signal is at a high level, the DC power supply is controlled to output current to the boost energy storage circuit, and when the PWM signal is at a low level, it indicates that the DC power supply is controlled not to output current to the boost energy storage circuit. The duty cycle indicates that the duration of the high level is longer than the cycle length of the previous PWM cycle. Therefore, in order to ensure the discharge frequency of the burner stove, it is necessary to control the initial duty cycle and target duty cycle step of the pulse width modulation PWM signal output to the boost tank circuit according to the current power supply voltage of the acquired DC power supply.

[0051] Furthermore, in order to ensure the discharge frequency of the burner stove, there are two ways to determine the initial duty cycle and the target duty cycle step of the pulse width modulation PWM signal output to the boost tank circuit according to the current power supply voltage.

[0052] Method 1: In the pre-stored correspondence between the initial duty cycle and the power supply voltage, the initial duty cycle corresponding to the current power supply voltage is queried, and the target duty cycle step is a preset reference step.

[0053] In practice, in order to ensure the discharge frequency of the burner stove, it is necessary to determine the initial duty cycle according to the current power supply voltage. The technicians determine the initial duty cycle of the burner stove at the appropriate discharge frequency for different power supply voltages of the DC power supply in advance. After that, the burner stove stores the corresponding relationship between the initial duty cycle and the power supply voltage. Based on the current power supply voltage, the burner stove queries the initial duty cycle corresponding to the current power supply voltage in the above corresponding relationship. And the target duty cycle step is a preset reference step.

[0054] Method 2: In the pre-stored correspondence between the duty cycle step and the power supply voltage, the target duty cycle step corresponding to the current power supply voltage is queried, and the initial duty cycle is 0.

[0055] In practice, in order to ensure the discharge frequency of the burner stove, the duty cycle step length needs to be determined according to the current power supply voltage. The technicians determine the duty cycle step length that ensures the burner stove at a suitable discharge frequency for different power supply voltages of the DC power supply in advance. Afterwards, the burner stove stores the corresponding relationship between the duty cycle step length and the power supply voltage. Based on the current power supply voltage, the burner stove queries the target duty cycle step length corresponding to the current power supply voltage in the above corresponding relationship. And the initial duty cycle is 0.

[0056] Step 203, starting from the first PWM cycle, determine the target duty cycle corresponding to the current PWM cycle according to the initial duty cycle, the target duty cycle step and the cycle number of the current PWM cycle, and output a PWM signal of the target duty cycle to the boost tank circuit within the current PWM cycle to detect the energy storage voltage of the boost tank circuit.

[0057] In the implementation, the pulse width modulation PWM cycle is adopted. Starting from the first PWM cycle, the target duty cycle corresponding to the current PWM cycle is determined according to the obtained initial duty cycle, the target duty cycle step and the cycle number of the current PWM cycle. Based on the target duty cycle, in the current PWM cycle, the PWM signal of the target duty cycle is output to the boost energy storage circuit, and the energy storage voltage after the boost energy storage circuit receives the PWM signal of the target duty cycle is detected. This makes the current control in each cycle more accurate and makes it easier to control the discharge frequency within an appropriate range.

[0058] As an optional implementation, according to the initial duty cycle, the target duty cycle step and the cycle number of the current PWM cycle, the formula for determining the target duty cycle corresponding to the current PWM cycle is:

[0059] X PWM =A PWM +B*Y PWM

[0060] Among them, X PWM represents the target duty cycle, APWM Indicates the initial duty cycle, B indicates the cycle number of the current PWM cycle, Y PWM Indicates the target duty cycle step.

[0061] Step 204, if the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit is greater than or equal to the energy storage voltage threshold or the target duty cycle reaches the preset duty cycle threshold, then in each subsequent PWM cycle, a PWM signal with a target duty cycle is output to the boost energy storage circuit until the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit reaches the discharge voltage.

[0062] In implementation, the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit is compared with the pre-acquired energy storage voltage threshold. If the measured energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit is greater than or equal to the energy storage voltage threshold or the target duty cycle reaches the preset duty cycle threshold, then in each subsequent PWM cycle, a PWM signal with a target duty cycle is output to the boost energy storage circuit until the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit reaches the discharge voltage. The energy storage voltage threshold is the voltage of the boost energy storage circuit when the target duty cycle reaches the preset duty cycle threshold. The preset duty cycle threshold is less than the maximum duty cycle of 1. After a large number of experiments, the technicians have measured that when half of the charging time has passed, the target duty cycle reaches the maximum duty cycle. When the target duty cycle reaches the maximum duty cycle, in each subsequent PWM cycle, a PWM signal with a constant duty cycle is output to the boost energy storage circuit until the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit reaches the discharge voltage. Because, when half of the discharge time has passed, the target duty cycle reaches the maximum duty cycle, that is, the boost tank circuit reaches the energy storage threshold of the energy storage voltage threshold. And in the subsequent half of the discharge time, the current and voltage corresponding to the duty cycle corresponding to the PWM signal are output to the boost tank circuit. Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the relationship between power and discharge duration of a boost energy storage circuit provided in an embodiment of the present application. When the first PWM cycle outputs a PWM signal with an initial duty cycle to the boost energy storage circuit, and then adjusts the target duty cycle to a preset duty cycle threshold with a target duty cycle step, when half the discharge duration (t / 2) is reached, after the energy storage voltage threshold is reached, a corresponding PWM signal is output to the boost energy storage circuit with a constant PWM signal with a preset duty cycle threshold. The power (P) curve first increases linearly and then becomes constant.

[0063] Furthermore, when a DC power supply is added to the inductor (transformer primary), the current changes linearly with time. The battery is equivalent to a voltage source connected in series with an internal resistor, and the inductor also has a DC resistance. The formula is converted into the voltage on the inductor V1(t) = Vbat-i(t)*r = L*di / dt. Among them, V1 represents the voltage of the inductor, Vbat represents the voltage of the DC power supply, L represents the inductor parameter, and i represents the current on the inductor. Due to the discreteness of the transformer, L has a deviation. When Vbat and r are constant, L becomes smaller and I becomes larger. At this time, the time needs to be reduced to ensure constant power in one cycle. Therefore, the PWM duty cycle becomes smaller, and vice versa. As the battery is used for a longer time, the energy decreases, Vbat becomes smaller, and r becomes larger. When PWM is constant, the ignition frequency will change with the inductor and also with the battery.

[0064] According to the inductor energy storage formula W = 1 / 2LI 2 , the current increases linearly. When the voltage and inductance L are constant, the current is proportional to the PWM signal. Because the output power of the transformer of the boost tank circuit is equal to the input power of the capacitor of the boost tank circuit. In the rising PWM stage, w1+w2+…+wn=1 / 2CU 储能电压阈值 2. wn=n*1 / 2*L*i 2 i is the current generated per unit PWM, and n is the period number of the PWM cycle. Therefore, 1 / 2CU 储能电压阈值 2=1*1 / 2*L*i 2 +2*1 / 2*L*i 2 +…+n1*1 / 2*L*i 2 =(1+n) / 2*1 / 2*L*i 2 In the stop stepping stage n*m*1 / 2*L*i 2 =1 / 2CU 放电电压 2-1 / 2CU 储能电压阈值 2, m is the total PWM cycle number. When i and L are constant, n and m can be determined. And they are constant values. When i changes due to changes in Vbat and r, i 2 *n is constant, n changes with the formula n*m*1 / 2*L*i 2 =1 / 2CU 放电电压 2-1 / 2CU 储能电压阈值 2, it is concluded that m is related to L and remains unchanged. Set the initial PWM according to the empirical value, reduce n, and make m>>n. This method can achieve the effect of stabilizing the ignition frequency. Therefore, the energy storage threshold when the boost tank circuit reaches the energy storage voltage threshold is 1 / 3 of the total energy storage when the boost tank circuit reaches the discharge voltage. According to the capacitance calculation formula W = 1 / 2*C*U 2 It can be seen that 1 / 2*C*U 储能电压阈值 2 =1 / 3*1 / 2*C*U放电电压 2 , so, U 储能电压阈值 =√3 / 3*U 放电电压 .

[0065] For example, the capacitor C2 is charged with constant periodic power, C2 is charged to 150V, and the high-voltage circuit is discharged through the switch. Power determination method: First, set the discharge frequency. In this example, it is set to 10Hz. Assume that the energy is charged to the energy storage voltage threshold u, the energy of each PWM cycle is w, the total energy is 1 / 2CU2, and U is the discharge voltage. The PWM cycle is 10KHz, and the total PWM cycle corresponding to 10HZ is 1000 cycles. Because the power increases from 0 to w in the PWM increase stage, the power of the first half is half of the power of the second half, that is, the first half accounts for 1 / 3 of the total power, that is, 1 / 2CU2 / 3. At this time, the value of u can be calculated, that is, 1 / 2CU2 / 3=1 / 2Cu2. When U=150V, u=86V. Because the transformer coefficient and the resistor voltage divider are constant, the corresponding A / D voltage values ​​of 150V and 86V can be calculated. In the example, when PWM is small, the power generated is small, but the time occupied is long, and w is large, so a small PWM (non-0) is selected as the starting point step, so that the starting power is large, and w becomes smaller in the same 1000 cycles, that is, the charging current becomes smaller, as long as the ignition frequency is controlled within an acceptable range. When the battery voltage and internal resistance are too large, in order to maintain the ignition frequency, the ignition current must be increased. In order to limit the current, the maximum PWM value can be set according to the battery voltage, and the ignition frequency will become smaller.

[0066] Furthermore, if the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit is less than the energy storage voltage threshold and the target duty cycle does not reach the preset duty cycle threshold, the next PWM cycle is entered, and the step of determining the target duty cycle corresponding to the current PWM cycle is executed based on the initial duty cycle, the target duty cycle step and the cycle number of the current PWM cycle.

[0067] In the implementation, the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit is compared with the pre-acquired energy storage voltage threshold. If the detected energy storage voltage of the boost energy storage circuit is less than the energy storage voltage threshold and the target duty cycle does not reach the preset duty cycle threshold, the cycle number of the current PWM cycle is increased by one to enter the next PWM cycle. And the step of determining the target duty cycle corresponding to the current PWM cycle is performed according to the initial duty cycle, the target duty cycle step and the cycle number of the current PWM cycle.

[0068] Figure 4 A circuit diagram of a boost energy storage circuit provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4As shown, the circuit diagram includes a 3V DC power supply and a boost energy storage circuit. The boost energy storage circuit includes a transformer TI, a MOS tube Q2, a first diode D1, a second diode D3, a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, a third resistor R4, a first capacitor C1 and a second capacitor C2. The input of Q2 is PWM. According to the transformer boost parameters, the frequency is 8KHz, the target duty cycle is adjustable, and it is started with a PWM signal of the initial duty cycle, a pulse current is generated in the primary of T1, and a boost is generated through T1 flyback. D1 rectifies and charges C2. D3 and C1 rectify and filter to generate a voltage proportional to C2, and divide the voltage to AD detection through R1 and R4. First, due to the discreteness of the transformer inductance parameters, the PWM signal of the initial duty cycle generates a pulse boost voltage at the 5th PIN of T1. The higher the target duty cycle, the faster the rate of rise of the C2 charging voltage, and vice versa. When C2 is charged to the ignition voltage, it can be seen from the ratio that the A / D detection reaches the threshold and controls the discharge of C2. The ignition frequency is calculated by the timer, and the PWM is adjusted by the ignition frequency deviation, so that the ignition frequency in the next cycle is closer to the set discharge frequency. When the battery voltage drops, the charging rate is maintained unchanged by changing the PWM signal of the initial duty cycle to ensure the stability of the ignition frequency. When there is a deviation in the ignition frequency, the target duty cycle is adjusted cycle by cycle to make the discharge frequency close to the preset frequency.
