Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electric spark wire cutting processing, and in particular relates to a narrow pulse discharge driving circuit for an electric spark wire cutting machine tool. Background Art

[0002] Wire EDM is also called wire cutting. Its basic working principle is to use a continuously moving thin metal wire (called electrode wire) as an electrode to perform pulse spark discharge to erode metal and cut the workpiece into shape.

[0003] Wire EDM technology is a special processing technology. It is different from traditional processing technology that needs mechanical force and mechanical energy to cut. It mainly uses electrical energy to process materials. Therefore, wire EDM technology is not limited by material properties and can process any hardness, strength, and brittle materials. It occupies a very important position in the current mechanical processing.

[0004] At present, the narrow pulse signal of existing EDM wire cutting is a small pulse width square wave signal directly generated by the controller to drive the power tube to discharge, so that the system outputs a narrow pulse. However, during the EDM wire cutting process, the fixed pulse voltage applied to the workpiece and the molybdenum wire cannot discharge immediately, and a breakdown time is required, and the breakdown time is also variable, so the effective discharge rate is relatively low, that is, most of the pulses are invalid pulses.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to design a driving circuit that can obtain a real narrow pulse current signal to improve the effective discharge rate. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the above problems in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a narrow pulse discharge drive circuit for an electric spark wire cutting machine tool, which outputs a feedback signal by comparing the output signal with the set value, thereby relying on the logic transformation of the drive circuit to shut down the output signal in time, so that the output signal can be shut down immediately after the breakdown is completed, thereby improving the effective discharge rate.

[0007] A narrow pulse discharge drive circuit for an electric spark wire cutting machine tool is used to turn off an output signal through logic transformation according to the breakdown time of a narrow pulse to improve an effective discharge rate. The drive circuit includes an input signal and an output signal. The input signal includes a drive signal and a feedback signal. The drive circuit includes:

[0008] The first part is used to receive the driving signal and the feedback signal, and output the output signal through logical transformation;

[0009] The second part is used to receive the output signal, compare the output signal with the comparator and then output a feedback signal;

[0012] The feedback signal is input to the circuit between the second resistor and the second switch.

[0013] In order to determine whether the output signal has completed breakdown, the second part includes a MOS tube and a comparator, the output signal is electrically connected to the gate of the MOS tube, the drain and source of the MOS tube are respectively connected to resistor four and resistor three, the other end of the resistor four is electrically connected to the LDC, the other end of the resistor three is grounded, the source of the MOS tube is also connected to the inverting input end of the comparator, the non-inverting input end of the comparator is grounded through resistor five, and the signal output by the comparator is a feedback signal.

[0014] The process of the driving circuit shutting down the output signal includes four stages, and the four stages include:

[0015] In the first stage, there is no pulse input, the drive signal and the feedback signal are both high level, at this time, switch 1 is open, switch 2 is closed, the output signal is high level, and the feedback signal output after the output signal is compared by the comparator is high level;

[0016] The second stage, in which there is a pulse input, the drive signal is low level, and the feedback signal is high level. At this time, switch 1 is disconnected, switch 2 is closed, the output signal is low level, and the feedback signal output after the output signal is compared by the comparator is low level;

[0017] The third stage, in which there is a pulse input, the drive signal is at a low level, and the feedback signal is at a low level. At this time, the switch 1 is closed, the switch 2 is open, the output signal is at a high level, and the feedback signal output after the output signal is compared by the comparator is at a high level;

If the output signal does not exceed the set value, the feedback signal output by the comparator is a high level. If the output signal exceeds the set value, the feedback signal output by the comparator is a low level.

The drive circuit includes a first part for receiving the drive signal and the feedback signal and outputting the output signal through logic transformation and a second part for receiving the output signal and outputting the feedback signal after comparing the output signal with a comparator.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the driving signal is the Plus signal output by the controller, the driving signal is input to the circuit between the resistor 1 and the switch 1, and the driving signal input is connected to the two input terminals of the NAND gate 5; the feedback signal is the Current signal generated after the output signal is compared by the comparator, the feedback signal is input to the circuit between the resistor 2 and the switch 2, and the output signal is the Out signal output by the NAND gate 6.

[0031] Among them, the first part includes a loop formed by resistor 1, switch 1, switch 2, and resistor 2 connected in series in sequence, and the circuit between switch 1 and switch 2 is connected with NAND gate 1, NAND gate 2, NAND gate 3, and NAND gate 4 in sequence, and the circuit between resistor 1 and switch 1 is connected with NAND gate 5 5 and NAND gate 6 6 in sequence, the output end of NAND gate 6 6 is electrically connected to the second part, the output end of NAND gate 5 5 is connected to one input end of NAND gate 6 6, and the other input end of NAND gate 6 6 is connected to two input ends of NAND gate 1 1.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the two input ends of NAND gate 1 are connected to the circuit between switch 1 and switch 2, the output end of NAND gate 1 is connected to one input end of NAND gate 2, the other input end of NAND gate 2 is connected to the input end of NAND gate 6, the output end of NAND gate 2 is connected to two input ends of NAND gate 3, the output end of NAND gate 3 is connected to two input ends of NAND gate 4, the output end of NAND gate 4 is electrically connected to switch 2, the output end of NAND gate 3 is also electrically connected to switch 1, the signal output by NAND gate 3 is used to control the state of switch 1, and the signal output by NAND gate 4 is used to control the state of switch 2.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, switch 1 and switch 2 are voltage-controlled analog switches. When point A is at a high level, switch 1 is closed and turned on, and when point A is at a low level, switch 1 is opened; similarly, when point B is at a high level, switch 2 is closed and turned on, and when point B is at a low level, switch 2 is opened.

[0034] The initial state of the driving circuit is: the driving signal is at a high level, the feedback signal is at a high level, the switch 1 is disconnected, and the switch 2 is closed and turned on.

[0035] The second part includes a MOS tube and a comparator, the output signal is electrically connected to the gate of the MOS tube, the drain and source of the MOS tube are respectively connected to resistor four and resistor three, the other end of the resistor four is electrically connected to the LDC, the other end of the resistor three is grounded, the source of the MOS tube is also connected to the inverting input end of the comparator, the non-inverting input end of the comparator is grounded through resistor five, and the signal output by the comparator is a feedback signal.

The voltage signal on the sampling resistor is compared with the reference voltage signal on resistor five by a comparator to output a feedback signal, wherein the reference voltage signal on resistor five is adjustable.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, the Plus signal is converted into the Out signal, which can improve the effective discharge rate. The process of the driving circuit turning off the output signal includes four stages, which include:

If the output signal exceeds the set value, the feedback signal output by the comparator is a low level.

[0043] like Figure 3As shown, when the drive circuit is in the first stage, the output is turned off if there is no pulse input, and then it is determined whether there is a pulse input. If so, it enters the second stage and the output is turned on. If not, it remains in the first stage. After entering the second stage, it is determined whether the output signal exceeds the set value. If so, it enters the third stage and the output is turned off. If not, it remains in the second stage and continues to output. After entering the third stage, it can enter the fourth stage and keep the output turned off.
