[0026] In this document, reference to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearances of the phrase in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are they necessarily mutually exclusive of one another. As used herein, a plurality includes at least two.

[0027] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a first embodiment of a constant power load circuit according to the present application. In the embodiment, the constant power load circuit 10 includes a first power connection end 11, a second power connection end 12, a current sampling circuit 13, a control circuit 14 and a switching circuit 15.

[0029] The constant power load circuit 10 is particularly used in a power supply product, such as a welding power supply, to maintain the constant power output to the load 102 when the welding power supply is used to perform welding work, so as to ensure the load 102 to work normally under the dynamic voltage variation and avoid the over-high output voltage.

[0030] It should be noted that the welding power supply refers to the CO2 (carbon dioxide) gas shielded welding power supply, which adopts the flat characteristic or the slow descending external characteristic, and the no-load voltage is usually 38-70V.

[0031] Specifically, the first power connection end 11 and the second power connection end 12 of the constant power load circuit 10 are respectively connected to the first power supply end and the second power supply end of the external first power supply 101 to receive the first power supply 101 and connect to the external load 102 to provide the first power supply 101 to the load 102 to drive the load 102 to work.

[0032] Further, the current sampling circuit 13 is connected to the first power connection end 11 to receive the current signal sent by the first power connection end 11, i.e. the current signal corresponding to the input of the first power supply 101 through the first power connection end 11.

[0033] The control circuit 14 is further connected to the current sampling circuit 13 to receive the current signal sent by the current sampling circuit 13, compare the current signal with the preset reference current set in the control circuit 14, and generate a control signal based on the current comparison result, such as the current signal being greater than or less than the preset reference current.

[0034] It can be understood that the different comparison results correspond to different control signals, and the switch circuit 15 is connected to the current sampling circuit 13, the control circuit 14, the first power connection end 11 and the second power connection end 12 to change its conduction state, such as the time length in the conduction and off states, under the action of the control signal when receiving the current signal sent by the current sampling circuit 13 and the control signal sent by the control circuit 14, so as to adjust the current signal and return the adjusted current signal to the first power connection end 11.

[0035] Therefore, the current signal returned to the first power supply connection end 11 by the switch circuit 15 can achieve dynamic balance with the current signal corresponding to the first power supply 101 input through the first power supply connection end 11, and can be repeatedly compared with the preset reference current by the control circuit 14 to dynamically adjust it, and finally make the current signal corresponding to the preset reference current equal, so as to ensure that the current signal corresponding to the load 102 is also constant as the preset reference current, thereby avoiding the situation that the load 102 cannot work normally, or the output voltage of the first power supply 101 provided to the load 102 by the first power supply connection end 11 and the second power supply connection end 12 is too high, so as to exceed the national standard.

[0036] The above scheme can effectively maintain the constant power output to the load 102 by adopting the form of self-feedback constant power load 102 in parallel with the load 102, thereby avoiding the problem that the parallel resistance type dead load 102 has large power consumption and easily causes the electric load 102 to work effectively; and can also effectively avoid the situation that the no-load voltage exceeds the national standard, so as to cause the risk of electric shock to the workers; accordingly, the output voltage of the constant power load circuit 10 corresponding to the output to the load 102 can also follow the output voltage provided by the external first power supply 101 to quickly respond dynamically, so as to ensure that the load 102 can be in normal working state at all times when the actual application voltage dynamically changes, and avoid the situation that the output voltage is too high.

[0037] In another embodiment, the switch circuit 15 in the constant power load circuit 10 can also be directly connected to the first power supply connection end 11 without being connected to the current sampling circuit 13, to directly receive the current signal corresponding to the first power supply connection end 11; and the current sampling circuit 13 specifically samples the current of the first power supply connection end 11, and the specific acquisition is the current value of the current signal, and the current sampling circuit 13 can also specifically include an analog-to-digital conversion circuit, so as to correspondingly convert the current signal into a digital signal form of current value, and send the current value to the control circuit 14, so as to facilitate the control circuit 14 to compare the current value with the preset reference current, and generate a control signal according to the current comparison result.

[0038] In an embodiment, the control signal is specifically a pulse width modulation signal, that is, a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal, and the comparison result of the current signal corresponding to the first power supply connection end 11 with the preset reference current specifically includes that the current signal is less than the preset reference current and the current signal is greater than the preset reference current.

[0039] Wherein, the control circuit 14 determines that the current signal is less than the preset reference current, then the duty cycle of the control signal currently provided to the switching circuit 15 is increased to increase the current signal, and the first power connection end 11 is returned to send; and the control circuit 14 determines that the current signal is greater than the preset reference current, then the duty cycle of the control signal currently provided to the switching circuit 15 is reduced to reduce the current signal, and the first power connection end 11 is returned to send, so that the current signal is adjusted to be equal to the preset reference current through at least one dynamic adjustment of the current signal.

[0040] Optionally, the control circuit 14 can be any reasonable functional circuit with program processing, such as MCU (Microcontroller Unit), single-chip microcomputer or system-on-chip, etc., to facilitate users to set, reset or update the control signal generation program according to the actual application scenario of the constant power load circuit 10, which is not limited in the present application.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 is the structural schematic diagram of the second embodiment of the constant power load circuit provided in the present application. Based on the first embodiment of the constant power load circuit provided in the present application, the constant power load circuit 20 further comprises a first diode 26, and the switching circuit 25 specifically comprises a boost sub-circuit 251 and a second diode 252.

[0042] Specifically, the first end of the first diode 26 is connected to the first power connection end 21 to be able to step-down regulate the first power 101 provided by the first power connection end 21 and the second power connection end 22, and the second end of the first diode 26 is connected to the current sampling circuit 23. The first end of the boost sub-circuit 251 is connected to the current sampling circuit 23, and the second end of the boost sub-circuit 251 is connected to the first end of the second diode 252. The second end of the second diode 252 is connected to the first power connection end 21, so that the corresponding current signal is boosted and regulated by the boost sub-circuit 251, and then returned to the first power connection end 21.

[0043] Wherein, when the first power connection end 21 and the second power connection end 22 provide the first power 101 to the load 102, the first diode 26 can correspond to the second diode 252 to make the input voltage and the output voltage of the load 102 equal, that is, through the mutual clamping effect between the first diode 26 and the second diode 252, the input and output voltages of the first power connection end 21 and the second power connection end 22 of the constant power load circuit 20 corresponding to the load 102 can be equal.

[0044] For the convenience of understanding, in the case of the voltage across the first diode 26 and the second diode 252 being VF and the preset reference current I, it can be known that the constant power load circuit 20 corresponds to the follow-up constant power W output to the load 102, and through theoretical calculation, it can be obtained that W = 2*VF*I + the power consumption of the switching circuit 25.

[0045] Further, in an embodiment, the boost sub-circuit 251 further includes an inductor 2511 and a switching tube 2512, and the first end of the inductor 2511 is specifically connected to the current sampling circuit 23, the second end of the inductor 2511 is connected to the first end of the switching tube 2512 and the first end of the second diode 252, the second end of the switching tube 2512 is connected to the control circuit 24, and the third end of the switching tube 2512 is connected to the second power supply connection end 22.

[0046] It can be understood that the control circuit 24 specifically controls the switching tube 2512 to be turned on or turned off by sending a corresponding pulse width modulation signal to the second end of the switching tube 2512, so as to dynamically adjust the corresponding current signal and finally enable the current signal to correspond to the preset reference current.

[0047] Further, in an embodiment, the constant power load circuit 20 further includes a filter circuit 27, the first end of the filter circuit 27 is connected to the current sampling circuit 23 and the first end of the inductor 2511, and the second end of the filter circuit 27 is connected to the third end of the switching tube 2512 and the second power supply connection end 22, so as to be able to filter and adjust the current signal corresponding to the current sampling circuit 23 sent to the boost sub-circuit 251, so as to ensure the stability of the current signal, and also be able to cooperate with the boost sub-circuit 251 to achieve a better boost effect.

[0048] Optionally, the filter circuit 27 specifically can include a capacitor, or a plurality of mutually connected capacitors and inductors 2511, so as to achieve a better filtering effect, which is not limited in the application.

[0049] In an embodiment, the constant power load circuit 20 can further include a voltage sampling circuit 28, and the voltage sampling circuit 28 is specifically connected to the first power supply connection end 21 and the control circuit 24, so as to be able to receive the voltage signal sent by the first power supply connection end 21 and send the voltage signal to the control circuit 24, so that the control circuit 24 can determine whether the voltage currently output to the load 102 exceeds the national standard or the threshold range determined according to the actual application scene according to the voltage signal sampled by the voltage sampling circuit 28.

[0050] It can be understood that in the embodiment, the first power connection end 21, the second power connection end 22, the current sampling circuit 23 and the control circuit 24 are the same as the first power connection end 11, the second power connection end 12, the current sampling circuit 13 and the control circuit 14 respectively, and details are described with reference to Figure 1 and related text content, which will not be repeated here.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a structural schematic diagram of a third embodiment of the constant power load circuit of the application. Based on the first embodiment of the constant power load circuit provided by the application, the control circuit 34 in the constant power load circuit 30 further includes a current adjusting circuit 341 and a signal driving circuit 342.

[0052] Specifically, the current adjusting circuit 341 is connected to the current sampling circuit 33 and the signal driving circuit 342, and the signal driving circuit 342 is connected to the switching circuit 35. When the current adjusting circuit 341 receives the current signal sent by the current sampling circuit 33, it can compare and adjust the current signal by a preset reference current, and send the current signal after comparison and adjustment to the signal driving circuit 342, so that the signal driving circuit 342 generates a control signal corresponding to the current signal, and sends the control signal to the switching circuit 35.

[0053] Alternatively, the adjustment of the current adjusting circuit 341 to the corresponding current signal can be current PI (proportion integral) adjustment or any other reasonable comparison adjustment, which is not limited by the application.

[0054] Further, in an embodiment, the control circuit 34 further includes a signal amplification circuit, which is specifically connected to the signal driving circuit 342 and the switching circuit 35, so that when receiving the control signal sent by the signal driving circuit 342, it can amplify the control signal, and send the control signal after signal amplification to the switching circuit 35, so as to effectively trigger the switching circuit 35 to turn on or turn off.

[0055] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 is Figure 3 the flowchart of the control circuit in the constant power load circuit adjusting the current signal.

[0056] For the convenience of understanding, taking the control signal as a PWM signal as an example, it can be known that the steps of adjusting the current signal by the control circuit 34 include:

[0057] S41: system initialization.

[0058] Start the adjustment program of the current signal.

[0059] S42: voltage detection.

[0060] The end-point voltage of the first power connection end 31 is acquired to determine whether it is within a set threshold range.

[0061] S43: current reference.

[0062] The current signal corresponding to the first power connection end 31 is acquired, or the current value of the current signal, and the current signal is compared with a preset reference current.

[0063] S44: current PI regulation.

[0064] The current signal is subjected to current PI regulation based on the comparison result.

[0065] S45: PWM driving.

[0066] A corresponding PWM signal is generated.

[0067] S46: signal amplification.

[0068] After the PWM signal is amplified, it is sent to the switching circuit to trigger the switching circuit to turn on or turn off.

[0069] It can be understood that in an embodiment, when the control circuit 34 determines that the end-point voltage of the first power connection end 31 is within a set threshold range, and after the current signal sent by the first power connection end 31 is stepped down by the first diode D1 (not shown in the figure), the current signal is compared with a preset reference current, when the current signal is less than the preset reference current, the duty cycle of the PWM signal is increased, otherwise, the duty cycle of the PWM signal is decreased, to realize the constant current dynamic balance of the current signal by repeatedly executing the above S41-S46, and after the current signal is filtered by the capacitor C (not shown in the figure), the inductor L (not shown in the figure), the power field effect transistor Q (not shown in the figure), and the second diode D2 (not shown in the figure), the corresponding current signal is returned to the first power connection end 31 to make the input and output voltages of the load 102 equal by the mutual clamping effect of the first diode D1 and the second diode D2, and voltage following is realized.

[0070] It can be understood that in the present embodiment, the first power connection end 31, the second power connection end 32, the current sampling circuit 33, and the switching circuit 35 are the same as the first power connection end 11, the second power connection end 12, the current sampling circuit 13, and the switching circuit 15 respectively, and details are described in Figure 1 and related text content, which will not be described here.

In the embodiment, the welding power supply circuit 50 comprises a power conversion circuit 51 and a constant power load circuit 52.

[0072] Specifically, the power conversion circuit 51 connects the external second power supply 103 and the constant power load circuit 52, and the constant power load circuit 52 connects the external load 102. The power conversion circuit 51 receives the second power supply 103, converts the second power supply 103 into a first power supply, and then provides the first power supply to the constant power load circuit 52, so that the constant power load circuit 52 provides the first power supply to the load 102.

[0081] Unlike the prior art, the first power connection end and the second power connection end in the constant power load circuit provided by the present application are respectively connected to the first power supply end and the second power supply end of the external first power supply, and are used to connect the external load, so as to be able to receive the first power supply and provide the first power supply to the load. The current sampling circuit can receive the current signal sent by the first power connection end, and send the current signal to the control circuit. The control circuit compares the current signal with the preset reference current, generates a control signal based on the current comparison result, and sends the control signal to the switch circuit. When the switch circuit receives the current signal sent by the current sampling circuit and the control signal sent by the control circuit, it can change its conduction state under the action of the control signal to adjust the current signal and send the adjusted current signal to the first power connection end. Thus, by adopting the form of self-feedback constant power load in parallel with the load, the constant power output to the load can be effectively maintained, so as to avoid the problem that the parallel resistance type dead load has large power consumption and easily causes the electric load to be unable to work effectively. In addition, the no-load voltage can be effectively avoided to exceed the national standard, so as to avoid the risk of personal safety of the workers.

[0082] The above is only an embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation using the content of the present application specification and drawings, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
