The full-bridge boost circuit 4 includes: a second MOS tube Q2, a third MOS tube Q3, and a primary coil L connected to the transformer 3.

The source of the second MOS tube Q2 is connected to the output end of the first inductor Lm, and the drain is grounded. The source of the third MOS tube Q3 is electrically connected to the output end of the first inductor Lm, and the drain is grounded. The negative electrode of the power input terminal 1 is grounded. Through the orderly control of the first MOS tube Q1, the second MOS tube Q2, the third MOS tube Q3 and the fourth MOS tube Q4 and the coordination of the first inductor Lm and the first capacitor Cr TX The energy storage characteristic of the power supply input terminal 1 is used to step up the voltage input thereto and transmit it to the transformer 3.

[0026] The full-bridge boost circuit 4 of the present invention realizes storing energy in the first inductor Lm and then supplying energy to the primary coil L of the transformer 3 through the first MOS transistor Q1, the second MOS transistor Q2, the third MOS transistor Q3 and the fourth MOS transistor Q4 which are controlled in an orderly manner.

There is no diode on the primary side of the transformer 3 to lose electric energy, which can reduce the loss of the conversion rate of the overall electric energy converter, thereby improving the conversion rate and solving the problems of the prior art.

[0028] In the above embodiment, the power converter further includes a second capacitor Cr RX , the second capacitor Cr RX The two ends of the transformer 3 are connected to the secondary coil L RX The bridge rectifier circuit 5 is electrically connected to the bridge rectifier circuit 5. The bridge rectifier circuit 5 includes a first diode D1, a second diode D2, a third diode D3 and a fourth diode D4. The input end of the first diode D1 and the input end of the fourth diode D4 are both grounded. The output end of the first diode D1 is connected to the second capacitor Cr.

RX Keep away from the second capacitor Cr RX At one end, the AC power generated by the transformer 3 is converted into DC power using a bridge rectifier circuit 5 composed of four diodes.

[0029] In order to protect the first MOS transistor Q1 , the second MOS transistor Q2 , the third MOS transistor Q3 , and the fourth MOS transistor Q4 , the first MOS transistor Q1 , the second MOS transistor Q2 , the third MOS transistor Q3 , and the fourth MOS transistor Q4 are all connected in parallel with a fifth diode and a fourth capacitor.

[0030] Specifically, in order to achieve voltage raising and reduce control difficulty, the orderly control includes:

[0031] Step 1: At time t 0 -t 1 The first MOS transistor Q1 and the third MOS transistor Q3 are turned on at the same time, and a loop is formed between the power input terminal 1, the first MOS transistor Q1, the first inductor Lm, and the third MOS transistor Q3. In this way, the direct current input from the power input terminal 1 can store energy in the first inductor Lm after passing through the first MOS transistor Q1.

[0032] Step 2: At time t 1 -t 2 The third MOS tube Q3 is disconnected, and the fourth MOS tube Q4 is turned on at the same time, the power input terminal 1, the first MOS tube Q1, the first inductor Lm, the fourth MOS tube Q4, the first capacitor CrTX and the primary coil Lm of the transformer 3 are connected. TX The power input from the power input terminal 1 and the electric energy stored in the first inductor Lm are sequentially transmitted through the fourth MOS tube Q4 and the first capacitor Cr. TX , the primary coil L of transformer 3 TX Transmitted to the secondary coil L of transformer 3 RX Then, through the second capacitor Cr RX , the second diode D2, the second inductor L 0 , the power supply output terminal 2 outputs, and the second inductor L 0 At this time, the voltage output by the first inductor Lm is the sum of the power input from the power input terminal 1 and the electric energy stored in the first inductor Lm.

[0033] Step 3: At time t 2 -t 3 The first MOS tube Q1 is disconnected, and the second MOS tube Q2 is turned on. The first inductor Lm, the second MOS tube Q2, and the primary coil L of the transformer 3 are TX 、The first capacitor Cr TX The electric energy on the first inductor Lm is sequentially transmitted through the second MOS transistor Q2, the primary coil L of the transformer 3, and the fourth MOS transistor Q4. TX Transmitted to the secondary coil L of transformer 3 RX , the secondary coil L of transformer 3 RX The fourth diode D4, the third diode D3, the second inductor L0 , power supply output terminal 2, first diode D1, second capacitor Cr RX A loop is formed between the secondary coil L of transformer 3. RX The generated electric energy is rectified by the fourth diode D4 and the third diode D3 and then passes through the second inductor L 0 Output.

[0034] Step 4: Repeat step 1, disconnect the second MOS tube Q2 and the fourth MOS tube Q4, and simultaneously turn on the first MOS tube Q1 and the third MOS tube Q3, and form a loop between the power input terminal 1, the first MOS tube Q1, the first inductor Lm, and the third MOS tube Q3. The first inductor Lm stores energy. And the second inductor L 0 , and the power supply output terminal 2, the freewheeling diode D f The tubes form a loop, and the second inductor L 0 The electric energy on the power supply is output from the power supply output terminal 2. Then, step 2 and step 3 are performed again and again, and the power supply output terminal 2 can output power continuously and stably.

[0035] Specifically, the power input to the power input terminal 1 is set to Vin, and the power output to the power output terminal 2 is set to V 0 , the current of the switch is I Lon The current cut off by the switch is represented by I Loff The duty cycle is represented by D, the period of the duty cycle is TS, and the inductor boost energy storage is represented by Lm, and the following formula can be obtained: I Lon =Vin*D*TS / Lm; I Loff =V 0 *(1-D)*TS / Lm.

[0036] And because the current on the inductor cannot change suddenly and according to the volt-second balance law of the inductor voltage, the volt-second balance law of the inductor voltage means that for a DC-DC power converter that has been working stably in a steady state, the forward volt-second applied to the inductor when the active switch is turned on must be equal to the reverse volt-second applied to the inductor when the active switch is turned off. It can be obtained that I Lon =I Loff , that is, Vin*D*TS / Lm=V 0 *(1-D)*TS / Lm, and by simplifying this, we can get V 0 =(Vin*D) / (1-D), which is different from the traditional wireless charging boost full-bridge power converter voltage gain of V 0 =(Vin*D) / (1-D), and can reduce components and parts, and cooperate with orderly control, which can reduce the control difficulty of the power converter of the present invention and effectively reduce the cost.

[0037] The above description is only an implementation mode of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, improvements can be made without departing from the creative concept of the present invention, but these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
