Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a water flosser, and in particular to a motor start-up control method, device, storage medium and program product of the water flosser. Background Art
[0002] The water flosser is a device that uses high-pressure water to flush the oral cavity, clean the teeth, interdental spaces and gums. Its power source is a DC permanent magnet brushless motor. Figure 1 This motor includes a stator 10 composed of two magnets arranged facing each other, a rotor 20 composed of a winding coil, a brush 40 and positive and negative terminals 30. The positive and negative terminals 30 are connected to a DC power supply to form a closed loop. With the support of the DC power supply, the motor provides an inexhaustible source of power for the water flosser.
[0003] However, when the existing motor is started, a constant rated voltage is directly given to start it. As the current passes through the winding coil, the rotor continuously accelerates its rotation under the action of the magnetic field of the stator magnet. However, the distribution of the magnetic field between the two permanent magnets arranged opposite to each other is uneven. When the rotor rotates to a weak area of the magnetic field, the electromagnetic force decreases and the rotor is easily stuck. After being stuck, the coil generates excessive current under the action of the constant rated voltage, which is easy to burn the coil and smoke, causing a fire safety hazard.
[0004] The above are the shortcomings of the prior art. Summary of the invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: to provide a program product, which is stored on a storage medium and configured on a water flosser, and can implement a motor starting control method, which can avoid the phenomenon of smoke from burning coils and eliminate fire safety hazards.

[0007] Assign an initial value a to the duty cycle of the PWM signal;
[0008] Increase the duty cycle by an increment b for a period of time t;
[0009] Determine whether the duty cycle reaches a threshold value m, if yes, maintain the duty cycle output, if no, return to the previous step.
[0010] The preferred parameter range is: 35% <a<39%,
[0011] 1.5% <b<2.5%,

[0023] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] See also Figure 1 to Figure 3 The present invention is an improvement on the existing motor. The motor 30 includes a stator 10 composed of two magnets arranged opposite to each other, a rotor 20 composed of winding coils, a brush 40, and positive and negative terminals 31 and 32. The positive and negative terminals 31 and 32 are connected to a DC power supply 50 to form a closed loop.
[0025] An MCU (specific model is FT61EC22A) 60 and a driving MOS (specific model is TDM2310) 70 are designed on the closed loop formed by the DC power supply 50 and the motor 30. The driving MOS, the full name of which is MOSFET, is a voltage-controlled device. The voltage between its gate and source determines the conduction of the current between the drain and the source. In order to enable the MOSFET to be turned on and off normally, quickly and reliably, a suitable driving signal is required. Under the action of a certain driving signal, a certain conduction rate is obtained between the drain and the source, thereby obtaining a PWM signal with a certain duty cycle, which is equivalent to changing the transient voltage directly acting on both ends of the motor. In the DC motor speed regulation, PWM is widely used, and the average voltage at both ends of the motor is controlled by changing the duty cycle of the PWM signal, thereby changing the working speed of the motor. This speed regulation principle is mastered by ordinary technicians, but the idea of the present invention is to apply the above principle to the start-up stage of the motor.
[0026] Watch out Figure 3 , is a flow chart of the present invention, which can be summarized into the following steps:
[0027] First, the duty cycle of the PWM signal of the microcontroller is modulated to 37%;
[0028] Secondly, the duty cycle is increased by 2% and lasts for 200ms;
[0029] Then, determine whether the duty cycle increases to above 99%. If so, maintain the duty cycle output; otherwise, return to the previous step to continue execution.
[0030] In the prior art, the DC motor speed increases from 0 to the set speed based on directly providing the rated voltage and current of the motor, that is, the time taken for the voltage to increase from 0 to the rated voltage is 0; while the present invention adopts voltage PWM modulation and increasing duty cycle to power the oral irrigator motor. In the startup phase, the motor is given incremental voltage and matching current. The transient voltage at both ends of the motor increases slowly, avoiding the generation of excessive current in the coil. Even if the rotor is stuck in a weak position of the permanent magnet (stator) magnetic field, the coil will not be burned or smoke will not occur, thereby eliminating the fire safety hazard; and improving the stability of the power supply of the oral irrigator system.
