[0046] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0047] The circuits, apparatus, methods, household appliances and their power supply circuits, and computer-readable storage media for suppressing DC bus voltage fluctuations proposed in the embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0048] like Figure 1a As shown, the circuit for suppressing DC bus voltage fluctuations proposed in this embodiment of the invention includes a rectifier bridge 10, a first filter unit 20, and a second filter unit 30.

[0049] The rectifier bridge 10 includes a first AC terminal, a second AC terminal, a first DC terminal, and a second DC terminal. The rectifier bridge 10 receives the input AC power through the first AC terminal and the second AC terminal, and performs rectification and power factor correction on the input AC power to output DC bus voltage through the first DC terminal and the second DC terminal.

[0050] refer to Figure 1a As shown, the rectifier bridge 10 can be a single-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit, specifically including a first switching transistor S. Au Second switch S Bu Third switch S Ad and the fourth switch S Bd First switching transistor S Au The first terminal and the second switching transistor S Bu After the first end is connected, it is connected to the first DC end of the rectifier bridge 10, and the first switching transistor S Au The second and third switching transistors S Ad The first terminal is connected to the first AC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10, and the second switch S Bu The second terminal and the fourth switching transistor S Bd The first terminal is connected to the second AC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10, and the third switch S Ad The second terminal and the fourth switching transistor S Bd The second terminal is connected to the second DC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10, wherein the first switching transistor S is controlled by... Au Second switch S Bu Third switch S Ad and the fourth switch S BdThis allows the rectifier bridge to rectify and correct the power factor of the input AC power, and output a DC bus voltage. Additionally, a DC bus capacitor C can be connected in parallel between the first and second DC terminals of the rectifier bridge 10. dc Through the DC bus capacitor C dc The DC bus voltage is filtered to obtain a stable DC bus voltage for the load. In this example, the use of a full-bridge structure to simultaneously achieve rectification and power factor correction results in lower conduction losses and higher efficiency compared to using a diode plus PFC circuit.

[0051] like Figure 1a As shown, the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 are connected in series between the first AC terminal and the second AC terminal, and node J between the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 is connected to the second DC terminal to form a common-mode circuit. Thus, the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 absorb the high-order harmonics generated when the rectifier bridge is operating through their corresponding common-mode circuits. For example, refer to... Figure 1a As shown, the common-mode circuit formed may include: the first DC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10 (i.e., the DC bus capacitor C) dc (one end) First switching transistor S Au The second DC terminal (i.e., DC bus capacitor C) of the first filter unit 20 and the rectifier bridge 10 dc The other end) forms a common-mode circuit, and the first DC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10 (i.e., the DC bus capacitor C) dc (one end) and the second switch S Bu The second DC terminal (i.e., DC bus capacitor C) of the second filter unit 30 and the rectifier bridge 10 dc A common-mode loop is formed at the other end. Through this common-mode loop, high-order harmonics such as the second harmonic of the DC bus voltage can be introduced to the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30. That is, the circuit has the ability to inject high-order harmonic energy such as the second harmonic from the DC side to the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 on the AC side. Then, the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 filter out the high-order harmonics such as the second harmonic of the injected DC bus voltage, thereby solving the problem that it is not only costly but also has limited filtering capability due to the need to increase the DC bus capacitance to increase the filtering capability.

[0052] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the circuit for suppressing DC bus voltage fluctuations forms a common-mode circuit by connecting a first filter unit and a second filter unit in series between a first AC terminal and a second AC terminal, and connecting the node between the first filter unit and the second filter unit to a second DC terminal. In this way, the first filter unit and the second filter unit can absorb the high-order harmonics generated when the rectifier bridge is working through the corresponding common-mode circuit. Thus, the high-order harmonics of the DC bus voltage can be effectively eliminated without increasing the DC bus capacitance, ensuring that the DC bus voltage has high stability.

[0053] Figure 1b This is a schematic diagram of a device for suppressing DC bus voltage fluctuations according to an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to... Figure 1b As shown, the device for suppressing DC bus voltage fluctuations may include: the circuit for suppressing DC bus voltage fluctuations described in the above embodiments and the control unit 40, that is, the device for suppressing DC bus voltage fluctuations includes a rectifier bridge 10, a first filter unit 20, a second filter unit 30 and a control unit 40.

[0054] The rectifier bridge 10 includes a first AC terminal, a second AC terminal, a first DC terminal, and a second DC terminal. The rectifier bridge 10 receives the input AC power through the first AC terminal and the second AC terminal, and performs rectification and power factor correction on the input AC power to output DC bus voltage through the first DC terminal and the second DC terminal.

[0055] refer to Figure 1b As shown, the rectifier bridge 10 can be a single-phase full-bridge rectifier circuit, specifically including a first switching transistor S. Au Second switch S Bu Third switch S Ad and the fourth switch S Bd First switching transistor S Au The first terminal and the second switching transistor S Bu After the first end is connected, it is connected to the first DC end of the rectifier bridge 10, and the first switching transistor S Au The second and third switching transistors S Ad The first terminal is connected to the first AC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10, and the second switch S Bu The second terminal and the fourth switching transistor S Bd The first terminal is connected to the second AC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10, and the third switch S Ad The second terminal and the fourth switching transistor S Bd The second terminal is connected to the second DC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10, and the first switching transistor S Au Control terminal, second switch S Bu Control terminal, third switch S Ad The control terminal and the fourth switch S BdThe control terminals of the four transistors are connected to the control unit 40, which controls the switching on and off of the transistors to rectify and correct the power factor of the input AC power and output the DC bus voltage. Additionally, a DC bus capacitor C can be connected in parallel between the first and second DC terminals of the rectifier bridge 10. dc Through the DC bus capacitor C dc The DC bus voltage is filtered to obtain a stable DC bus voltage for the load. In this example, the use of a full-bridge structure to simultaneously achieve rectification and power factor correction results in lower conduction losses and higher efficiency compared to using a diode plus PFC circuit.

[0056] The first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 are connected in series between the first AC terminal and the second AC terminal, and the node J between the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 is connected to the second DC terminal to form a common-mode circuit. For example, refer to Figure 1b As shown, the common-mode circuit formed may include: the first DC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10 (i.e., the DC bus capacitor C) dc (one end) First switching transistor S Au The second DC terminal (i.e., DC bus capacitor C) of the first filter unit 20 and the rectifier bridge 10 dc The other end) forms a common-mode circuit, and the first DC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10 (i.e., the DC bus capacitor C) dc (one end) and the second switch S Bu The second DC terminal (i.e., DC bus capacitor C) of the second filter unit 30 and the rectifier bridge 10 dc A common-mode loop is formed at the other end. Through this common-mode loop, high-order harmonics such as the second harmonic of the DC bus voltage can be introduced to the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30. That is, the device has the ability to inject high-order harmonic energy such as the second harmonic from the DC side to the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 on the AC side. Then, the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 filter out the high-order harmonics such as the second harmonic of the injected DC bus voltage, thereby solving the problem that it is not only costly but also has limited filtering capability due to the need to increase the DC bus capacitance to increase the filtering capability.

[0057] The control unit 40 generates a differential-mode component based on the DC bus voltage, the input AC voltage, and the input AC current, and generates a common-mode component based on the DC bus voltage. It also generates a control signal based on the differential-mode component and the common-mode component to control the switching transistors in the rectifier bridge 10, so that the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 absorb the high-order harmonics generated by the switching transistors through a set of common-mode loops.

[0058] The control unit 40 can obtain the DC bus voltage V through a DC voltage detection circuit disposed between the first DC terminal and the second DC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10. dc The input AC voltage V is obtained through an AC voltage detection circuit located at the AC power source. ac And the input AC current i is obtained through an AC current detection circuit located at the AC power source. ac Then, based on the DC bus voltage v dc Input AC voltage v ac and the input AC current i ac Generate differential mode components and based on the DC bus voltage v dc The common-mode component is generated, and control signals such as PWM control signals are generated based on the differential-mode component and the common-mode component. Finally, the four switching transistors in the rectifier bridge 10 are turned on and off according to the control signals. In the process of rectifying and power factor correction of the input AC power and outputting DC bus voltage, the high-order harmonics of the DC bus voltage are introduced to the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 through the above two common-mode circuits. The first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 absorb the high-order harmonics of the DC bus voltage, such as the second harmonic, thereby obtaining a stable DC bus voltage. This effectively solves the problem that increasing the DC bus capacitance to increase the filtering capability results in not only high cost but also limited filtering capability.

[0059] According to an embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 2 As shown, the first filter unit 20 includes a first inductor L1 and a first capacitor C1. One end of the first inductor L1 is connected to a first AC terminal, and the other end of the first inductor L1 is connected to one end of the first capacitor C1. The other end of the first capacitor C1 is connected to a second DC terminal. The second filter unit 30 includes a second inductor L2 and a second capacitor C2. One end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the other end of the first capacitor C1, and the other end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to one end of the second inductor L2. The other end of the second inductor L2 is connected to a second AC terminal. That is, both the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30 can be LC filter units, which absorb high-order harmonics of the DC bus voltage.

[0060] It is understandable that other filtering circuits can also be used, such as capacitor filtering circuits, CLC filtering circuits, LCL filtering circuits, etc. The specific settings can be made according to actual needs, and there are no restrictions here.

[0061] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the capacitance value of the first capacitor C1 is equal to the capacitance value of the second capacitor C2, so that the filtering capabilities of the two common-mode circuits are the same, ensuring that they have the same filtering effect at different times.

[0062] According to an embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 3 As shown, the first AC terminal and the second AC terminal of the rectifier bridge 10 are also connected to an EMI filter 50. The EMI filter 50 shares a first capacitor C1 and a second capacitor C2 with the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30. Both the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 are X capacitors, and the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 are connected in parallel at the output terminal of the EMI filter 50.

[0063] Specifically, an EMI filter 50, or electromagnetic interference filter, can be installed on the AC side of the rectifier bridge 10 to suppress electromagnetic interference. The EMI filter 50 can be a CLC filter, specifically including a third capacitor C3, a common-mode inductor L, and a fourth capacitor. The fourth capacitor can be formed by connecting the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 in series. That is, the EMI filter 50 shares the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 with the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30. This not only suppresses electromagnetic interference and absorbs high-order harmonics of the DC bus voltage, but also effectively reduces hardware cost and footprint. Since the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 are shared by the EMI filter 50 and the first filter unit 20 and the second filter unit 30, and are used to achieve different functions, the capacitance values ​​of these two capacitors need to be comprehensively considered when designing. Optionally, the capacitance values ​​of the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 can be twice the capacitance value of the fourth capacitor.

[0064] According to an embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 4 As shown, the control unit 40 may include a differential mode component generation unit 401, a common mode component generation unit 402, and a control unit 47. The differential mode component generation unit 401 generates the differential mode component based on the DC bus voltage, a preset DC bus reference voltage, the input AC voltage, and the input AC current. The common mode component generation unit 402 generates the common mode component based on the DC bus voltage and a zero voltage signal. The control unit 47 is connected to both the differential mode component generation unit 401 and the common mode component generation unit 402, and generates the control signal based on the differential mode component and the common mode component.

[0065] Furthermore, such as Figure 4As shown, the differential-mode component generation unit 401 includes a first controller 41, a phase-locked loop 42, a multiplier 43, and a second controller 44. The common-mode component generation unit 402 includes a filter 45 and a third controller 46. Specifically, the first controller 41 performs PI regulation based on the DC bus voltage and a preset DC bus reference voltage to output a first amplitude signal; the phase-locked loop 42 performs phase-locked loop processing on the input AC voltage to output a phase angle signal; the multiplier 43 generates an AC reference current based on the first amplitude signal and the phase angle signal; and the second controller 44 generates differential-mode components based on the AC reference current and the input AC current. The filter 45 filters the DC bus voltage to output a voltage fluctuation signal; and the third controller 46 generates a common-mode component based on the difference between the voltage fluctuation signal and the zero-voltage signal.

[0066] Specifically, the DC bus reference voltage v can first be controlled by the first controller 41, such as a PI controller. dc_ref With DC bus voltage v dc The difference between them is PI-regulated to output the first amplitude signal, while the input AC voltage V is regulated through the phase-locked loop 42. ac A phase-locked loop (PLL) process is performed, and the phase angle signal is output. Then, multiplier 43 multiplies the first amplitude signal and the phase angle signal to obtain the AC reference current i. ac_ref Next, the AC reference current i is controlled by the second controller 44, such as the PR controller. ac_ref With the input AC current i ac The difference between them is proportionally resonantly adjusted to output the differential mode component, while the DC bus voltage V is filtered by a filter 45, such as a high-pass filter. dc The voltage fluctuation signal is filtered to output a voltage fluctuation signal. The third controller 46 generates a common-mode component based on the difference between the voltage fluctuation signal and zero. Finally, the control unit 47, such as a PWM controller, generates a control signal, such as a PWM control signal, based on the differential-mode component and the common-mode component. The control signal is used to control the switching transistors in the rectifier bridge 10 to rectify and correct the power factor of the input AC power.
