[0024] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 1 is a structural block diagram of a pre-charging circuit 100 provided in one embodiment of the present application.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the pre-charging circuit 100 includes: a first switch module 10 , a second switch module 40 , a third switch module 60 , a pre-charging resistor 20 , a pre-charging protection module 50 , a power supply on-off module 30 , and a control module 70 .

[0026] Specifically, the input power supply 200 is connected to the pre-charging resistor 20 through the first switch module 10, and the pre-charging resistor 20 is respectively connected to the power supply on-off module 30 and the load 300. The input power supply 200 is also connected to the load 300 through the power supply on-off module 30. The second switch module 40 is connected to the control end of the first switch module 10, and the third switch module 60 is connected to the control end of the power supply on-off module 30. The control module 70 is connected to the input power supply 200, and the control module 70 is connected to the control end of the second switch module 40. The control module 70 is also connected to the control end of the third switch module 60 through the pre-charging protection module 50.

[0027] The control module 70 is used to sample the input voltage of the input power supply 200, and when the input voltage is within a preset range, output a first control signal to the second switch module 40 and the pre-charge protection module 50. The second switch module 40 is used to turn on when receiving the first control signal to control the first switch module 10 to turn on, so that the input power supply 200 supplies power to the load 300 through the first switch module 10 and the pre-charge resistor 20. The pre-charge protection module 50 is used to transmit the first control signal to the third switch module 60 after a preset time delay when receiving the first control signal. The third switch module 60 is used to turn on when receiving the first control signal to control the power supply on-off module 30 to turn on, so that the input power supply 200 supplies power to the load 300 through the power supply on-off module 30, and at the same time, the input power supply 200 does not supply power to the load 300 through the first switch module 10 and the pre-charge resistor 20. The load 300 may be a capacitive load.

[0028] When the input voltage is not within the preset range, the control module 70 outputs a second control signal to the second switch module 40 and the pre-charge protection module 50. The second switch module 40 is used to shut down when receiving the second control signal to control the first switch module 10 to shut down. The pre-charge protection module 50 is used to transmit the second control signal to the third switch module 60 after a preset delay time when receiving the second control signal. The third switch module 60 is used to shut down when receiving the second control signal to control the power supply on-off module 30 to disconnect, so that the input power supply 200 does not supply power to the load 300 through the power supply on-off module 30. Due to the setting of the pre-charge protection module 50, the power supply on-off module 30 is disconnected only after the second switch module 40 is disconnected.

[0029] It should be noted that the preset range can be set according to actual needs and is not specifically limited here. The first control signal is used to control the conduction state of the second switch module 40, and control the pre-charge protection module 50 to transmit the first control signal to the third switch module 60 after a preset delay time. The second control signal is used to control the second switch module 40 to disconnect, and control the pre-charge protection module 50 to transmit the second control signal to the third switch module 60 after a preset delay time. In some embodiments, the first control signal is a high-level signal and the second control signal is a low-level signal. The preset time is determined by the components of the circuit and the connection relationship between the components, and is not specifically limited here.

[0030] In this embodiment, the control module 70 samples the input voltage of the input power supply 200. When the input voltage is within a preset range, the control module 70 outputs a first control signal to control the power supply 200 to transmit the electric energy to the load 300, thereby preventing the input power supply from being over-voltage. Due to the setting of the pre-charging protection module 50, the third switch module 60 is turned on after the first switch module 10 is turned on, so that the load 300 is first powered by the pre-charging resistor 20, thereby pre-charging the load 300. In addition, after the third switch module 60 is turned on, the power supply on-off module 30 is turned on, and the first switch module 10 and the pre-charging resistor 20 are bypassed to reduce the loss of electric energy by the pre-charging circuit 20. Thus, the pre-charging circuit of the present application can prevent the input power supply from being over-voltage while pre-charging, thereby improving the safety of the circuit.

[0034] In some embodiments, the control module 70 includes a sampling unit (not shown) and a control unit (not shown). Specifically, the sampling unit is connected to the input power supply 200 and the control unit, and the control unit is connected to the first switch module 40 and the pre-charge protection module 50. The sampling unit collects the input voltage of the input power supply 200, and the control unit outputs a first control signal to the second switch module 40 and the pre-charge protection module 50 when the input voltage is within a preset range. Among them, the control unit may be an MCU (Micro Control Unit) or other control device. The sampling unit may be a voltage sampling device, which is set according to actual needs and is not specifically limited here.

[0035] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 1 is a schematic diagram of the circuit structure of a pre-charging circuit 100 provided in one embodiment of the present application.

[0036] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the first switch module 10 includes: a switch tube Q440 and a resistor R440. Specifically, the first end of the switch tube Q440 is connected to the first end of the resistor R440 and the input power supply 200, respectively, the second end of the switch tube Q440 is connected to the pre-charging resistor 20, and the control end of the switch tube Q440 is connected to the second end of the resistor R440 and the second switch module 40, respectively. The switch tube Q440 can be a PNP transistor, the base of the PNP transistor is the control end of the switch tube Q440, the emitter of the PNP transistor is the first end of the switch tube Q440, and the collector of the PNP transistor is the second end of the switch tube Q440.

[0037] The second switch module 40 includes: a switch tube Q441 and a resistor R441. Specifically, the first end of the switch tube Q441 is connected to the first switch module 10 through the resistor R441, the second end of the switch tube Q441 is grounded, and the control end of the switch tube Q441 is connected to the control module 70. The switch tube Q441 is an NPN transistor, the base of the NPN transistor is the control end of the switch tube Q441, the collector of the NPN transistor is the first end of the switch tube Q441, and the emitter of the NPN transistor is the second end of the switch tube Q441.

[0038] The pre-charge protection module 50 includes: a resistor R405, a resistor R408 and a capacitor C110. Specifically, the first end of the resistor R405 is connected to the control module 70, the second end of the resistor R405 is connected to the first end of the capacitor C110, the first end of the resistor R408 and the control end of the third switch module 60, and the second end of the capacitor C110 and the second end of the resistor R408 are grounded.

[0039] The third switch module 60 includes: a switch tube Q442. Specifically, the first end of the switch tube Q442 is connected to the control end of the power supply on-off module 30, the second end of the switch tube Q442 is grounded, and the control end of the switch tube Q442 is connected to the pre-charge protection module 50. The switch tube Q442 is a MOS tube. In some embodiments, the switch tube Q442 is an NMOS tube, the gate of the NMOS tube is the control end of the switch tube Q442, the drain of the NMOS tube is the first end of the switch tube Q442, and the source of the NMOS tube is the second end of the switch tube Q442.

[0040] The power supply on-off module 30 includes: a relay RLY400. Specifically, the first coil end of the relay RLY400 is used to connect to the first power source, the second coil end of the relay RLY400 is connected to the third switch module 60, the first connection end of the relay RLY400 is connected to the input power source 200, and the second connection end of the relay RLY400 is connected to the pre-charging resistor 20 and the load 300. In some embodiments, the relay RLY400 includes a normally open contact and a coil. When there is no current in the coil or the current is too small, the normally open contact is disconnected, and when the current in the coil is sufficient, the normally open contact is closed.

[0041] The load includes a capacitor EC400 and a subsequent circuit. The positive electrode of the capacitor EC400 is connected to the pre-charging resistor RT400, the relay RLY400 and the subsequent circuit, and the negative electrode of the capacitor EC400 is grounded.

[0042] In this embodiment, if Figure 3As shown, when the input power PV supplies power to the pre-charging circuit, the control module (not shown) collects the input voltage, and when the input voltage is within the preset range, the output terminal PV_EN of the control module 70 inputs a first control signal to the switch tube Q441 and the resistor R405. Then, the switch tube Q441 is turned on when receiving the first control signal at the PV_EN terminal, and then the switch tube Q440 is turned on, and the input power PV supplies power to the capacitor EC400 through the switch tube Q440 and the pre-charging resistor RT400 for pre-charging. Since the capacitor C110, the resistor R405 and the resistor R408 form a delay circuit, the switch tube Q442 is turned on when the first control signal is input for a preset time. When the switch tube Q442 is turned on, the coil of the relay RLY400 is energized, so that the normally open contact of the relay RLY400 is closed. At this time, the input power supply PV supplies power to the load through the relay PLY400. At the same time, the relay RLY400 bypasses the switch tube Q440 and the resistor RT400. The input power supply PV does not supply power to the load through the switch tube Q440 and the resistor RT400, so as to reduce the loss of electric energy by the resistor RT400.

[0043] In this embodiment, the control module 70 samples the input voltage of the input power supply 200. When the input voltage is within a preset range, the control module 70 outputs a first control signal to control the power supply 200 to transmit the electric energy to the load 300, thereby preventing the input power supply from being over-voltage. Due to the setting of the pre-charging protection module 50, the third switch module 60 is turned on after the first switch module 10 is turned on, so that the load 300 is first powered by the pre-charging resistor 20, thereby pre-charging the load 300. In addition, after the third switch module 60 is turned on, the power supply on-off module 30 is turned on, and the first switch module 10 and the pre-charging resistor 20 are bypassed to reduce the loss of electric energy by the pre-charging circuit 20. Thus, the pre-charging circuit of the present application can prevent the input power supply from being over-voltage while pre-charging, thereby improving the safety of the circuit.
