Detailed implementation

[0047] The following uses specific specific examples to illustrate the implementation manners of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific implementation manners. Various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0048] Please refer to Figures 1 to 12 . It should be noted that the illustrations provided in this embodiment only schematically illustrate the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, only the components related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, rather than being drawn according to the number, shape, and size of the components in actual implementation.

The structures, ratios, sizes, etc. shown in the drawings of this specification are only used to cooperate with the content disclosed in the specification for those skilled in this technology to understand and read, and are not used to limit the limiting conditions under which the present invention can be implemented. Therefore, they do not have technical substance. Any modification of the structure, change of the proportional relationship, or adjustment of the size, without affecting the effects that the present invention can produce and the purposes that can be achieved, should still fall within the scope that can be covered by the technical content disclosed in the present invention. At the same time, the terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "middle", and "one" cited in this specification are only for the convenience of clear narration, rather than being used to limit the scope within which the present invention can be implemented. The change or adjustment of their relative relationships, without substantial change in technical content, should also be regarded as the scope within which the present invention can be implemented.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 , Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a drive control circuit, including:

[0050] A plurality of converter modules 10, each of the converter modules 10 includes a primary coil and a first control unit. The output end of the primary coil is connected to the first control unit, and the input end of the primary coil is used to access a drive signal. Two adjacent converter modules 10 are connected in parallel. For example, the number of converter modules 10 can be set to 2, 3, ……, n, where n≥2 and n is a positive integer. Without changing the architecture of the drive control circuit and adding extra components, adding multiple primary coils can store more energy. When each primary coil needs to release energy externally, the output power of the primary coil to the outside can be increased.

[0051] An output module 20, the output module 20 includes a secondary coil, and each of the primary coils is matched with the secondary coil. When the drive of the output power is required, the drive signal is accessed at the input end of the primary coil, and the first control unit controls the output end of the primary coil to conduct. When the primary coil completes energy storage, the first control unit controls the output end of the primary coil to open. At this time, the magnetic induction intensity of the primary coil changes, thereby exciting the secondary coil and completing energy conversion. After the energy conversion is completed, the secondary coil outputs power externally. By connecting multiple primary coils in parallel, more energy can be stored, and thus the purpose of increasing the output power of the secondary coil can be achieved without adding redundant components, effectively reducing costs.

[0052] Embodiment 2 provides an implementation scheme of a drive control circuit. In this embodiment, two converter modules are used for exemplary illustration. During the implementation process, the number of converter modules / primary coils can be selected according to specific product requirements and actual working conditions. For example, the drive control circuit includes 3 converter modules / primary coils. Another example is that the drive control circuit includes 4 or more converter modules / primary coils. Please refer to Figure 2, the driving signal is input through DC-IN. Since the primary coils T1 and T2 are connected in parallel and the input ends of the primary coils T1 and T2 are both connected to the driving signal, the first controllers Q1 and Q2 respectively conduct the output ends of the primary coils T1 and T2. Therefore, the primary coils T1 and T2 form a path and store energy in the primary coils T1 and T2. When the primary coils T1 and T2 store energy, the electrical energy of the driving signal is converted into electromagnetic energy. When the primary coils T1 and T2 complete energy storage, the first controllers Q1 and Q2 respectively conduct open-circuit control on the output ends of the primary coils T1 and T2. At this time, the stored electromagnetic energy of the primary coils T1 and T2 decays, and then the primary coils T1 and T2 both convert the electromagnetic energy into electrical energy with the secondary coil T0, and finally complete the driving control of the output power for one cycle. Because the total impedance in the driving control circuit is relatively low when accessing the driving circuit, the heat loss is correspondingly small, and at the same time, the temperature rise caused by the resistance loss will also be reduced. For example, the temperature rise can be reduced by about 30%.

[0053] To protect the output ends of the primary coils T1 and T2 against overcurrent and to absorb the reverse spike voltage when the output ends of the primary coils T1 and T2 are open-circuited, the converter module further includes a first diode. The input end of the first diode is connected to the output end of the primary coil, and the output end of the first diode is connected to the first control unit. For example, a first diode D1 is provided at the output end of the primary coil T1. The input end of the first diode D1 is connected to the output end of the primary coil T1, and the output end of the first diode D1 is connected to the first controller Q1. A first diode D2 is provided at the output end of the primary coil T2. The input end of the first diode D2 is connected to the output end of the primary coil T2, and the output end of the first diode D2 is connected to the first controller Q2. At the same time, the first diode D1 and the first diode D2 can also be set as isolation diodes, which can also eliminate the interference problem caused by the difference between the primary coils T1 and T2. By connecting the two primary coils T1 and T2 in parallel, the output power can be increased by 45% - 64%, and the cost only increases by about 5%, having good product performance and cost advantages.

[0054] To further absorb the reverse spike voltage when the output ends of the primary coils T1 and T2 are open-circuited, an RC circuit unit is provided between the input end and the output end of the primary coil to avoid the instantaneous reverse spike voltage generated when the primary coil is open-circuited and to avoid the breakdown effect on the entire driving control circuit.

[0055] To avoid the RC circuit unit from absorbing too much energy stored in the primary coil and also avoid reducing the output power of the drive, the RC circuit unit includes a first resistor, a first capacitor, and a second diode. The first resistor and the first capacitor are connected in parallel, and both the first resistor and the first capacitor are connected in series with the output terminal of the second diode. The input terminal of the second diode is connected to the output terminal of the primary coil. For example, in the first converter module, the RC circuit unit includes a first resistor R1, a first capacitor C1, and a second diode D3. When the primary coil T1 completes energy storage and the output terminal is open, the primary coil T1 releases energy to the secondary coil T0. The second diode D3 conducts the released energy unidirectionally, and the first diode D1, the first resistor R1, and the first capacitor C1 absorb the reverse spike voltage. Another example is that in the second converter module, the RC circuit unit includes a first resistor R2, a first capacitor C2, and a second diode D4. When the primary coil T2 completes energy storage and the output terminal is open, the primary coil T2 releases energy to the secondary coil T0. The second diode D4 conducts the released energy unidirectionally, and the first diode D2, the first resistor R2, and the first capacitor C2 absorb the reverse spike voltage. Furthermore, the primary coil T1 and the primary coil T2 simultaneously release energy to the secondary coil T0 to complete the drive control of the output power for one cycle.

[0056] To balance the response timing between two adjacent converter modules and adjust the difference in output power, the drive control circuit further includes a second resistor. The second resistor is respectively connected to the output terminals of two adjacent primary coils. For example, a second resistor RD can be set between the output terminals of the primary coil T1 and the primary coil T2. Another example is that one end of the second resistor RD is set between the output terminal of the first diode D1 and the first controller Q1, and the other end of the second resistor RD is set between the output terminal of the first diode D2 and the first controller Q2.

[0057] To facilitate the signal control of the first control unit and also facilitate the conduction and interruption of the output terminal of the primary coil, the first control unit includes at least one of the following: a field-effect transistor, a relay, and a changeover switch. For example, the field-effect transistor can be a MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor). Also, for example, the control unit includes a signal input terminal, a signal output terminal, and a signal control terminal. The signal input terminal is connected to the output terminal of the secondary coil, the signal output terminal is connected to the ground wire of the converter module, and the signal control terminal is used to receive a control signal. For example, the signal input terminal and the signal output terminal can be the source or drain of the field-effect transistor, and the signal control terminal can be the gate of the field-effect transistor. By applying a control signal to the gate of the field-effect transistor, conduction between the source and drain can be achieved, and by applying a control signal to the gate of the field-effect transistor, cut-off or interruption between the source and drain can also be achieved. For example, the signal input terminal and the signal output terminal can be the input terminal and output terminal of a normally-closed relay. By controlling the closing and opening of the signal control terminal of the normally-closed relay with a control signal, the conduction and interruption of the primary coil can be controlled. Also, for example, the first control unit can also be a normally-closed changeover switch. When energy storage of the primary coil is required, the output terminal of the primary coil is conductive. When energy release from the primary coil to the secondary coil is required, the first control unit can be changed from a normally-closed to a normally-open changeover switch to complete the interruption of the output terminal of the primary coil.

[0058] To implement the control of the control signal, the converter module further includes a second control unit. The second control unit includes a control signal input terminal GATE, a third resistor RS, and a fourth diode DR. The third resistor RS is respectively connected in series with each of the signal control terminals. For example, the third resistor RS is respectively connected in series with the signal control terminal of the first controller Q1 and the signal control terminal of the first controller Q2. The input terminal of the fourth diode DR is connected to each of the signal control terminals, and the output terminal of the fourth diode DR is connected to the control signal input terminal GATE.

[0059] To prevent the secondary coil from generating a reverse voltage to the primary coil, the output module further includes a third diode D and a second capacitor C. The input terminal of the third diode D is connected to the secondary coil T0, the output terminal of the third diode D is connected to the output terminal OUT of the output module, and the second capacitor C is respectively connected to the output terminal of the third diode D and the ground wire FGND of the output module.

[0070] Please refer to Figure 3 Embodiment 3 provides a drive control method, including:

[0071] S1: Connect a driving signal to the input ends of several primary coils and store energy in the primary coils. The process of storing energy in each primary coil is: the process of converting the electrical energy of the driving signal into electromagnetic energy of the primary coil. Among them, two adjacent primary coils are connected in parallel. Through the parallel connection of several primary coils, the driving signal can be received for excitation simultaneously, thereby completing the energy storage of several primary coils. Without changing the circuit structure and without adding redundant components, the energy stored in the primary coil can be increased, and the output power when the primary coil releases energy to the secondary coil can be increased;

[0072] S2: When the energy storage of each primary coil is completed, open the output ends of each primary coil. At this time, the electromagnetic energy stored in each primary coil gradually decays;

[0073] S3: The decaying primary coil excites the secondary coil, and the conversion of electromagnetic energy into electrical energy and power output occur in the secondary coil. Each primary coil releases energy to a secondary coil, completing the drive control of the output power for one cycle. By releasing energy from several parallel primary coils to the secondary coil, the magnitude of the output power generated by this drive is increased.

[0074] To facilitate the control of the output ends of each primary coil and meet the drive control of energy storage and energy release of each parallel primary coil, a first control unit is used to control the conduction or interruption of the output ends of each primary coil.

[0075] In some implementation processes, the first control unit includes at least one of the following: a field effect transistor, a relay, and a change-over switch. For example, the field effect transistor can be a MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor). Also for example, the control unit includes a signal input terminal, a signal output terminal, and a signal control terminal. The signal input terminal is connected to the output terminal of the secondary side coil. The signal output terminal is connected to the ground wire of the converter module. The signal control terminal is used to receive a control signal. For example, the signal input terminal and the signal output terminal can be the source or drain of the field effect transistor, and the signal control terminal can be the gate of the field effect transistor. By applying a control signal to the gate of the field effect transistor, conduction between the source and the drain can be achieved, and by applying a control signal to the gate of the field effect transistor, cut-off or open circuit between the source and the drain can also be achieved. For example, the signal input terminal and the signal output terminal can be the input terminal and the output terminal of a normally closed relay. By controlling the closing and opening of the signal control terminal of the normally closed relay with a control signal, conduction and open circuit of the primary side coil can be controlled. Also for example, the first control unit can also be a normally closed change-over switch. When energy storage of the primary side coil is required, the output terminal of the primary side coil is conducted. When energy needs to be released from the primary side coil to the secondary side coil, the first control unit can be changed from a normally closed change-over switch to a normally open change-over switch to complete the open circuit of the output terminal of the primary side coil.

[0076] To further control the response of the signal control terminal, the control signal is generated by a second control unit and used to control the signal control terminal. The second control unit includes a control signal input terminal, a third resistor, and a fourth diode. The third resistor is connected in series with each of the signal control terminals respectively. The input terminal of the fourth diode is connected to each of the signal control terminals, and the output terminal of the fourth diode is connected to the control signal input terminal.

[0077] To further absorb the reverse spike voltage when the output terminals of each of the primary side coils are open circuited, an RC circuit unit is provided between the input terminal and the output terminal of the primary side coil. When each of the primary side coils releases energy to a secondary side coil, the RC circuit unit absorbs the voltage signal released by the secondary side coil.

[0078] To prevent the RC circuit unit from absorbing too much energy stored in the primary side coil and avoid reducing the output power of the drive, the RC circuit unit includes a first resistor, a first capacitor, and a second diode. The first resistor and the first capacitor are connected in parallel, and both the first resistor and the first capacitor are connected in series with the output terminal of the second diode. The input terminal of the second diode is connected to the output terminal of the primary side coil.

[0079] To balance the response timings between two adjacent converter modules and adjust the difference in output power, the timings between two adjacent primary coils are balanced by a second resistor, and the second resistor is respectively connected to the output ends of the two adjacent primary coils.

[0080] To prevent the secondary coil from generating a reverse voltage to the primary coil, the output end of the primary coil is unidirectionally conducted by a first diode, the input end of the first diode is connected to the output end of the primary coil, and the output end of the first diode is connected to the first control unit.

[0081] In Embodiment 4, a drive control method is provided for driving and controlling the energy storage and release of two parallel primary coils. In this embodiment, two primary coils are used for exemplary illustration. During implementation, the number of primary coils can be selected according to specific product requirements and actual working conditions. For example, the drive control can be performed on three parallel primary coils, or for example, on four or more parallel primary coils.

[0082] Please refer to Figure 4 , the signal flow direction in one of the primary coils T1 is as follows:

[0083] S10: The drive signal is accessed by DC-IN;

[0084] S20: The primary coil T1 is excited and conducted;

[0085] S30: The first diode D1 is unidirectionally conducted;

[0087] S50: The negative electrode GND is conducted;

[0088] S60: The primary coil T1 completes energy storage;

[0089] S70: The first controller Q1 is open-circuited;

[0090] S80: The primary coil T1 releases energy to the secondary coil T0;

[0091] S90: The first diode D1, the first resistor R1, and the first capacitor C1 absorb the reverse spike voltage;

[0092] S100: Completes the drive control of the output power for one cycle.

[0093] Similarly, the signal flow direction in the other primary coil T2 is as follows:

[0094] S11: The drive signal is accessed by DC-IN;

[0095] S21: The primary coil T2 is excited and conducts;

[0096] S31: The first diode D2 conducts unidirectionally;

[0097] S41: The first controller Q2 conducts;

[0098] S51: The negative electrode GND conducts;

[0099] S61: The primary coil T2 completes energy storage;

[0100] S71: The first controller Q2 is open-circuited;

[0101] S81: The primary coil T2 releases energy to the secondary coil T0;

[0102] S91: The first diode D2, the first resistor R2, and the first capacitor C2 absorb the reverse spike voltage;

[0103] S101: Completes the drive control of the output power for one cycle.

[0104] The drive control of the output power for the secondary coil T0 is performed through the primary coils T1 and T2, improving the magnitude of the output power.

[0105] Please refer to Figure 5 , Embodiment 5 provides a drive control device, including:

[0106] A plurality of converter modules 10, each of the converter modules 10 includes a primary coil and a first control unit, the output end of the primary coil is connected to the first control unit, the input end of the primary coil is used to access a drive signal, and two adjacent converter modules 10 are connected in parallel;

[0107] An input module, the input module is used to output the drive signal, and the output end of the input module is connected to the input end of the primary coil; and

[0108] An output module 20, the output module includes a secondary coil, and each of the primary coils is matched with the secondary coil. When drive of the output power is required, the input end of the primary coil accesses the drive signal through the input module, the first control unit controls the output end of the primary coil to conduct, and when the primary coil completes energy storage, the first control unit controls the output end of the primary coil to be open-circuited. At this time, the magnetic induction intensity of the primary coil changes, thereby exciting the secondary coil and completing energy conversion. By the way of connecting multiple primary coils in parallel, more energy can be stored, and thus the purpose of increasing the output power of the secondary coil can be achieved without adding redundant components.
