Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of light-emitting module control, and particularly relates to a dimming and color-tuning circuit and a lighting fixture. Background Art

[0002] The thyristor dimming technology refers to connecting a thyristor dimmer in series between the mains power supply and the light driving power supply. After the thyristor dimmer performs phase-cutting processing on the mains power supply, the output is sent to the light driving power supply, thereby driving the light-emitting module to work. However, when the traditional dimming circuit uses a thyristor for dimming, an additional independent color-tuning circuit is required to achieve the functions of dimming and color-tuning. Therefore, the traditional thyristor dimming technology cannot perform color-tuning while dimming, resulting in low circuit working efficiency and complex circuit structure. In addition, due to low compatibility, the thyristor dimming technology is prone to stroboscopic. To eliminate stroboscopic, an additional electrolytic capacitor is usually added, and the electrolytic capacitor is connected in parallel at the input end of the light driving power supply, thereby eliminating stroboscopic. However, this solution will further reduce the power factor.

[0003] Therefore, the traditional thyristor dimming technology cannot perform color-tuning while dimming, resulting in problems of low circuit working efficiency and complex circuit structure. Summary of the Invention

[0052] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present application more clearly understood, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the 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.

[0053] It should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the present application, "a plurality" means two or more unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of the module structure of a dimming and color - tuning circuit provided by an embodiment of the present application. For the convenience of description, only the parts related to this embodiment are shown and are described in detail as follows:

[0055] A dimming and color mixing circuit is used to control at least two light-emitting modules 100 to emit light. Specifically, at least two of the light-emitting modules 100 in each path have different light-emitting colors. For example, one light-emitting module 100 emits green light, and the other light-emitting module 100 emits blue light.

[0056] The dimming and color mixing circuit includes a thyristor dimmer 10, a rectifier circuit 20, a color mixing circuit 30, and a constant current circuit 40.

[0057] Among them, the thyristor dimmer 10 is connected to the rectifier circuit 20, the color mixing circuit 30 is connected to each light-emitting module 100, and the constant current circuit 40 is connected to the rectifier circuit 20, the color mixing circuit 30, and each light-emitting module 100.

[0058] The thyristor dimmer 10 is used to access an AC signal and perform voltage regulation on the AC signal.

[0059] Specifically, the thyristor dimmer 10 generates a tangential output voltage waveform after cutting the voltage waveform of the input AC signal through the conduction angle; applying the tangential principle can reduce the effective value of the output voltage, thereby reducing the power of the load, with high adjustment accuracy, enabling linear dimming, and high efficiency.

[0060] After the rectifier circuit 20 rectifies the AC signal after voltage regulation, it outputs a DC signal; this DC signal serves as a power supply signal to supply power to each light-emitting module 100, flows into the power supply circuit of each light-emitting module 100, and is used for the color mixing circuit 30 to adjust the current and for the constant current circuit 40 to perform constant current control.

[0061] Specifically, the rectifier circuit 20 is implemented by a rectifier bridge BD1.

[0062] The color mixing circuit 30, connected to each light-emitting module 100, is used to adjust the current ratio flowing through each light-emitting module 100 according to the received color mixing signal.

[0063] Specifically, the color mixing circuit 30 adjusts the current magnitude flowing through each light-emitting module 100 respectively, so that the current ratio of each light-emitting module 100 reaches the target value. By adjusting the current flowing through each light-emitting module 100, the light-emitting ratio of each light-emitting module 100 is adjusted, and finally the color temperature adjustment is achieved.

[0064] The constant current circuit 40, connected to the rectifier circuit 20, the color mixing circuit 30, and each light-emitting module 100, is used to perform constant current control on the power supply circuit of each light-emitting module 100.

[0065] Specifically, the constant current circuit 40 also has a discharging function. When the voltage in the circuit is at the trough, the discharging function is turned on to maintain the current.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 2 , which is Figure 1 a schematic diagram of the specific structure of the dimming and color mixing circuit shown. For the sake of convenience of explanation, only the parts related to this embodiment are shown and are described in detail as follows:

[0067] In an alternative embodiment, the above-mentioned color mixing circuit 30 includes a control circuit 31, an isolation circuit 32, and at least two current adjustment circuits 33.

[0068] Among them, the control circuit 31 is connected to the isolation circuit 32, and the current adjustment circuit 33 is connected to the constant current circuit 40 and the isolation circuit 32.

[0069] The control circuit 31 is used to access a dimming instruction and correspondingly output at least two color mixing signals according to the dimming instruction.

[0070] Specifically, the above-mentioned color mixing signal is a pulse width modulation signal (PWM, Pulse Width Modulation), and the control circuit 31 correspondingly generates a PWM signal with a certain width according to the dimming instruction and outputs it to the isolation circuit 32.

[0071] The isolation circuit 32, connected to the control circuit 31, is used for optoelectronic isolation and transmission of the color mixing signal.

[0072] Through the isolation circuit 32, electrical isolation between the control circuit 31 and the current adjustment circuit is achieved, and the transmission efficiency is high, making the overall anti-interference ability of the circuit strong and extending the service life of the control circuit 31.

[0073] At least two current adjustment circuits 33, connected to the constant current circuit 40 and the isolation circuit 32, and respectively connected to each path of the light emitting modules 100 one by one, are used to receive the color mixing signals one by one and correspondingly adjust the current flowing through the corresponding light emitting modules 100 according to the color mixing signals received by them respectively.

[0074] Specifically, Figure 2 only a dimming and color mixing circuit with two current adjustment circuits (current adjustment circuit 1 and current adjustment circuit 2) is shown. This dimming and color mixing circuit drives two paths of light emitting modules (light emitting module 1 and light emitting module 2) to emit light, and the light emitting colors of these two paths of light emitting modules are different.

[0075] In an alternative embodiment, the above-mentioned constant current circuit 40 includes a constant current control circuit 42 and at least two chip select circuits.

[0076] Among them, one chip select circuit is connected to at least one current adjustment circuit, another chip select circuit is connected to the light emitting module, and the constant current control circuit 42 is connected to the rectifier circuit 20 and each chip select circuit 41.

[0077] At least two chip select circuits 41, one of the chip select circuits is connected to at least one current adjustment circuit, and the other chip select circuit is connected to the light-emitting module. Each chip select circuit switches the power supply circuit of each light-emitting module.

[0078] Specifically, the chip select circuit 41 switches the power supply circuit of each light-emitting module by changing its own working state, so that a single circuit can perform dimming and color adjustment. The working state of the chip select circuit 41 can be set by writing a program.

[0079] The constant current control circuit 42 performs constant current control on the power supply circuits of each light-emitting module 100.

[0080] Specifically, the constant current control circuit 42 also has a discharging function. When the voltage in the circuit is at the trough, the discharging function is turned on to maintain the current.

[0081] Specifically, Figure 2 Only the constant current circuit 40 with two chip select circuits is shown. The corresponding dimming and color adjustment circuit controls two light-emitting modules (light-emitting module 1 and light-emitting module 2). Each light-emitting module has two power supply circuits according to the working state of the chip select circuit.

[0082] Next, according to Figure 2 Describe the power supply circuit:

[0083] For light-emitting module 1, its first power supply circuit is: thyristor dimmer 10 - rectifier circuit 20 - light-emitting module 1 - current adjustment circuit 1 - chip select circuit 1 - constant current control circuit 42; its second power supply circuit is: thyristor dimmer 10 - rectifier circuit 20 - light-emitting module 1 - current adjustment circuit 1 - chip select circuit 2 - light-emitting module 2 - current adjustment circuit 2 - chip select circuit 1 - constant current control circuit 42.

[0084] For light-emitting module 2, its first power supply circuit is: thyristor dimmer 10 - rectifier circuit 20 - chip select circuit 2 - light-emitting module 2 - current adjustment circuit 2 - chip select circuit 1 - constant current control circuit 42; its second power supply circuit is: thyristor dimmer 10 - rectifier circuit 20 - light-emitting module 1 - current adjustment circuit 1 - chip select circuit 2 - light-emitting module 2 - current adjustment circuit 2 - chip select circuit 1 - constant current control circuit 42.

[0085] According to the above analysis, the second power supply circuits of light-emitting module 1 and light-emitting module 2 are the same. That is, at this time, light-emitting module 1 and light-emitting module 2 emit light in series.

[0086] The first power supply circuit of the light-emitting module 1 and the first power supply circuit of the light-emitting module 2 exist simultaneously, and the second power supply circuit of the light-emitting module 1 and the second power supply circuit of the light-emitting module 2 exist simultaneously. That is, there are two combinations of the operating states of the chip select circuit 1 and the chip select circuit 2. One combination of operating states enables the light-emitting module 1 to have a first power supply circuit and enables the light-emitting module 2 to have a first power supply circuit; the other combination of operating states enables the light-emitting module 1 to have a second power supply circuit and enables the light-emitting module 2 to have a second power supply circuit.

[0087] Please refer to Figure 3 , for Figure 2 the example circuit schematic diagram of the dimming and color mixing circuit shown. For the convenience of description, only the parts related to this embodiment are shown and are described in detail as follows:

[0088] In an alternative embodiment, the above isolation circuit 32 includes at least two optocouplers ( Figure 3 U11 and U13 in

[0089] The light emitter of each optocoupler is connected to the control circuit 31 to receive the adjustment signal output by the control circuit 31.

[0090] The light receiver of each optocoupler is correspondingly connected to a current adjustment circuit 33; after the light emitter converts the adjustment signal into an optical signal, the light receiver receives the optical signal and converts it into an electrical signal, and then outputs it to the corresponding current adjustment circuit 33.

[0091] In the above isolation circuit 32, after the optocoupler performs an electrical-optical-electrical conversion on the received color mixing signal, it outputs it to the correspondingly connected current adjustment circuit 33, achieving electrical isolation and improving the overall safety of the circuit.

[0092] In an alternative embodiment, the above current adjustment circuit 33 includes a first resistor R20, a second resistor R21, a third resistor R23, a fourth resistor R22, a first switching tube Q3, a second switching tube Q2, and a first diode D7.

[0093] Next, taking Figure 3 the current adjustment circuit 2 in

[0094] as an example, the circuit connection structure is described:

[0097] It should be noted that the types, quantities, and connection relationships of the electronic components in the current adjustment circuit 1 are the same as those in the current adjustment circuit 2. For the convenience of introducing the principle below, it is set that the reference numerals of the electronic components in the current adjustment circuit 1 are different from the corresponding electronic components in the current adjustment circuit 1; similarly, the reference numerals of the corresponding electronic components in the following chip selection circuit 1 and chip selection circuit 2 are also different.

[0099] Specifically, Figure 2 The shown isolation circuit 32 has two optocouplers (U11 and U12), and this adjustment circuit has two current adjustment circuits (current adjustment circuit 1 and current adjustment circuit 2). Among them, the output end G1A of the light-receiving device of the optocoupler U11 is connected to the controlled end of the first switching transistor Q3 of the current adjustment circuit 1, and the controlled end G1 of its light-emitting device is connected to the control circuit 31; the output end G2A of the light-receiving device of the optocoupler U12 is connected to the controlled end of the first switching transistor Q3 of the current adjustment circuit 2, and the controlled end G2 of its light-emitting device is connected to the control circuit 31.

[0100] The first switching transistor Q3 and the second switching transistor Q2 adjust their own working states according to the adjustment signal, and can be in a conducting state, a semi-conducting state, a cut-off state, or other conducting states.

[0101] The above-mentioned current adjustment circuit 33 is composed of simple electronic components and is controlled by a dimming signal. When the characteristic parameters of the dimming signal change, the conducting states of its first switching transistor and second switching transistor change accordingly, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the magnitude of the current flowing through the corresponding light-emitting module. The circuit uses conventional electronic components, and the cost is low.
