Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of induction heating circuits, and in particular to an automatic detection method for the matching degree of high-frequency induction heating coils. Background Technology

[0002] In an induction heating circuit, the inverter output side is connected in series or parallel with the induction coil. Different power outputs are achieved by adjusting the state of the capacitor and the induction coil. The output capacitor is usually a fixed capacity set by the factory, while the induction coil is wound by the customer.

[0003] Each device has its fixed operating frequency range. Due to differences in winding processes among different customers, induction coil mismatch often occurs. Specifically, an induction coil that is too short or too long will result in different inductance values. During operation, this manifests as different output power values, or even excessively high or low output power, thus causing the induction heating circuit to malfunction.

[0004] Therefore, in order to assist customers in better optimizing induction coils without the need for specialized measuring tools, a testing method is proposed to detect the degree of matching between the induction coil and the relevant equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this application is to propose a testing method that can help customers better optimize induction coils in the absence of dedicated measuring tools, so as to test the degree of matching between the induction coil and related equipment.

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides an automatic detection method for the matching degree of a high-frequency induction heating coil. This automatic detection method is applied to a high-frequency induction heating system, which includes an induction heating circuit, a sampling module, and a control chip. The output terminal of the induction heating circuit is connected to the induction coil. The control chip establishes electrical and communication connections with both the induction heating circuit and the sampling module to achieve signal and data information transmission. The automatic detection method includes:

[0007] The control chip has a built-in data recording module to record the operating data collected by the sampling module; the operating data includes the operating frequency and operating power of the induction heating circuit.

[0008] The control chip analyzes the operating data to adjust the operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system;

[0009] The control chip determines whether the operating power output by the induction heating circuit within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system meets a preset ratio; the preset ratio is the ratio of the operating power of the induction heating circuit to the maximum power value of the high-frequency induction heating system.

[0010] If the preset ratio is met, the result of the determination that the induction coil and the high-frequency induction heating system are "matched" is output.

[0011] If the preset ratio is not met, the result of the determination of the induction coil and the high-frequency induction heating system is "mismatched", and the corresponding debugging prompt information is output.

[0012] Preferably, the control chip has a pre-installed data recording module to record the operating data collected by the sampling module, including:

[0014] If a signal is received indicating that the induction heating circuit has completed the first duration of operation, the sampling module records the operation data.

[0015] Preferably, the step of the control chip parsing the operating data to adjust the operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system includes:

[0016] The control chip receives and parses the operating data to obtain the average power.

[0017] The frequency change step size of the high-frequency induction heating system is modified according to the average power; the frequency change step size is the difference between the current frequency value and the next frequency value.

[0018] The operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system is reduced according to the frequency change step size, and then the induction heating circuit is driven to continue running for the first duration.

[0019] Within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system, when the maximum power point of the induction heating circuit is detected, the induction heating circuit stops operating; the maximum power point is the operating point corresponding to when the average power exceeds the maximum power value of the high-frequency induction heating system.

[0020] Preferably, after the step of modifying the frequency change step size of the high-frequency induction heating system according to the average power, the method further includes:

[0021] If a signal is received that the high-frequency induction heating system has completed the frequency change step size modification, the second operation is paused.

[0022] Preferably, after the step of stopping the induction heating circuit when the maximum power point of the induction heating circuit is detected within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system, the method further includes:

[0023] When the operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system drops to its minimum value, and the maximum power point of the induction heating circuit is still not detected, the induction heating circuit stops operating.

[0024] Preferably, the high-frequency induction heating system establishes a connection with the display to realize the transmission of signal and data information. The display is used to display a setting interface, which is preset with a result display module and a test confirmation module. Before the step of the control chip driving the induction heating circuit to start running for a first duration from the highest frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system, the method further includes:

[0025] The frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system is preset within the control chip.

[0026] If the control chip receives a signal from the user that triggers the test confirmation module, it drives the induction heating circuit to start running.

[0031] Based on the power conditions, determine whether the operating power output by the induction heating circuit within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system meets the preset ratio.

[0032] Preferably, after the step of determining whether the operating power output by the induction heating circuit within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system meets a preset ratio based on the power condition, the method further includes:

[0033] The judgment result is output as text and displayed on the result display module; the display information of the result display module includes the induction coil matching result, the maximum power point, and the frequency corresponding to the maximum power point.

[0034] Preferably, the preset ratio is 5% to 100%.

[0035] Compared with the prior art, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0036] The control chip drives the induction heating circuit to operate from the highest frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system. After a first operating period, it pauses for a second period. During this second pause, the control chip analyzes the operating power of the induction heating circuit to obtain the average power of the first operating period. Based on the average power, it reduces the frequency change step size of the high-frequency induction heating system. After the pause, it resumes the first operating period, and this cycle continues until the control chip detects the maximum power point of the induction heating circuit, at which point data recording stops. If the induction heating circuit can output the power of the device within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system, it indicates that the induction coil is matched with the device; if it does not meet the preset ratio, it indicates that the induction coil is not matched with the device, and corresponding debugging prompts are output. This automatic detection method can assist customers in better optimizing the induction coil and detecting the matching degree of the induction coil with the relevant equipment, even without dedicated measuring tools.

[0060] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the automatic detection method for coil matching degree provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating an application scenario of the automatic coil matching degree detection method provided in this embodiment of the invention. The automatic coil matching degree detection method provided in this embodiment of the invention is applied to the induction heating circuit 11. The specific implementation process of this automatic detection method is described in detail below. The method includes steps S110 to S140.

[0061] S110, The control chip 12 is equipped with a data recording module to record the operating data collected by the sampling module 13; the operating data includes the operating frequency and operating power of the induction heating circuit 11.

[0062] Please see Figure 4 In one specific embodiment, the high-frequency induction heating system establishes an association link with the display to realize the transmission of signal and data information. The display is used to display the setting interface, which is preset with a result display module and a test confirmation module.

[0063] Step S110 includes the following steps: S111, preset the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system in the control chip 12; S112, if the control chip 12 receives a signal from the user triggering the test confirmation module, drive the induction heating circuit 11 to start running; S113, the control chip 12 drives the induction heating circuit 11 to run for a first duration starting from the highest frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system; S114, if a signal is received that the induction heating circuit 11 has completed the first duration of operation, the sampling module 13 records the running data.

[0064] Since the high-frequency induction heating system is located in the relevant induction heating equipment, the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system is the frequency range set by the equipment itself at the factory. This frequency range is fixed. However, the induction coil Lr is customized according to customer requirements. The induction heating circuit 11 has different maximum power points when connected to different induction coils Lr. When using it, the maximum power point of the induction heating circuit 11 needs to be within the frequency range set by the equipment.

[0065] S120, The control chip 12 parses the operating data to adjust the operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system.

[0066] Please see Figure 5 In a specific embodiment, step S120 includes the following steps: S121, the control chip 12 receives and parses the operating data to obtain the average power; S122, the frequency change step size of the high-frequency induction heating system is modified according to the average power; the frequency change step size is the difference between the current frequency value and the next frequency value; S123, if a signal is received that the high-frequency induction heating system has completed the frequency change step size modification, the operation is paused for a second duration; S124, the operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system is reduced according to the frequency change step size, and then the induction heating circuit 11 is driven to continue operating for the first duration; S125, within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system, when the maximum power point of the induction heating circuit 11 is detected, the induction heating circuit 11 stops operating; the maximum power point is the operating point corresponding to when the average power exceeds the maximum power value of the high-frequency induction heating system.

[0067] In this embodiment, the first duration is set to 20ms, and the second duration is set to 50ms. The control chip 12 drives the induction heating circuit 11 to start operating from the highest frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system. Every 20ms of operation, the circuit pauses for 50ms. During the 50ms pause, the control chip 12 analyzes the operating power of the induction heating circuit 11 to obtain the average power during the 20ms operation period, and reduces the frequency change step size of the high-frequency induction heating system based on the average power. After the 50ms pause ends, the circuit runs for another 20ms, and this cycle continues continuously, recording relevant operating data until the control chip 12 detects the maximum power point of the induction heating circuit 11 before stopping the recording of operating data.

[0068] In one specific embodiment, step S125 is followed by: S126, when the operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system drops to its minimum value and the maximum power point of the induction heating circuit 11 is still not detected, the induction heating circuit 11 stops operating. Therefore, if the maximum power point of the induction heating circuit 11 cannot be found within the frequency range of the device, it indicates that the customer's induction coil Lr design is unreasonable and incompatible with the device. In this case, continuing the test is meaningless and the test should be stopped.

[0069] S130, the control chip 12 determines whether the operating power output by the induction heating circuit 11 within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system meets a preset ratio; the preset ratio is the ratio of the operating power of the induction heating circuit 11 to the maximum power value of the high-frequency induction heating system.

[0070] Please see Figure 6 In a specific embodiment, step S130 includes: S131, generating an operation record table based on the operation data; S132, generating a frequency-power curve of the induction heating circuit 11 based on the operation record table; S133, parsing the frequency-power curve to obtain the power status of the induction heating circuit 11 at each operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system; S134, determining whether the operating power output by the induction heating circuit 11 within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system meets a preset ratio based on the power status; S135, outputting the determination result in text form and displaying it on the result display module; the display information of the result display module includes the matching result of the induction coil Lr, the maximum power point, and the frequency corresponding to the maximum power point.

[0071] S140. If the preset ratio is met, output the determination result of the induction coil Lr and the high-frequency induction heating system as "matched".

[0072] S150. If the preset ratio is not met, output the judgment result of the induction coil Lr and the high-frequency induction heating system as "mismatch", and output the corresponding debugging prompt information.

[0073] In this embodiment, the frequency step size of the high-frequency induction heating system is limited to 1–18 kHz. The operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system in the next operating period is determined using the formula Δω = 18 - 1.7 * P. For example, if the current operating frequency is ω(n) = 450 kHz and the power is 0.4 kW, then Δω = 17.32 kHz. Therefore, the operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system in the next operating period is ω(n-1) = 450 - 17.32 = 432.68 kHz. As the operating power of the induction heating circuit 11 increases, the frequency change step size Δω gradually decreases closer to the resonance point. The power value of the induction heating circuit 11 at the maximum power value of the high-frequency induction heating system detected by the control chip 12 will be more accurate. Therefore, the data shown in the following operating record table can be obtained:

[0074] Run log table

[0075] Serial Number Operating frequency (kHz) Operating power P (kW) 1 Fmax (highest frequency) P1 2 Fmax-Δω P2 …… …… P3 N Fmin (lowest frequency) P4

[0076] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is the frequency-power curve of the induction heating circuit 11. The control chip 12 parses the operation record table and generates the frequency-power curve of the induction heating circuit 11 corresponding to a certain induction coil Lr. Based on the frequency-power curve, the power change of the induction heating circuit 11 connected to a certain induction coil Lr at various operating frequencies of the high-frequency induction heating system can be obtained.

[0077] If the induction heating circuit 11 can output 5% to 100% of the power of the device within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system, it indicates that the induction coil Lr is perfectly matched with the high-frequency induction heating system, that is, the induction coil Lr is matched with the device, and the output judgment result is "matched". The result display module of the display shows "1", and the value of the maximum power point and the value of the frequency corresponding to the maximum power point are also output. If the induction coil Lr is not matched with the device, the output judgment result is "mismatched", and the result display module of the display shows "2". At the same time, the corresponding debugging prompt information is output to inform the customer whether the frequency of the induction heating circuit 11 connected to a certain induction coil Lr is too high or too low, so that the customer can optimize the induction coil Lr.

[0078] For ease of understanding, the monitor's settings interface is as follows: Figure 7As shown, the user can click the "Start Test" button on the settings interface to generate a trigger signal for the test confirmation module. After receiving the trigger signal, the control chip 12 drives the induction heating circuit 11 to start running the test according to the preset frequency range. Taking a 10kVA handheld device as an example, after the test is completed, the control chip 12 generates the following running record table:

[0079]

[0080] In the table above, when the operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system is 395.508kHz, the operating power of the induction heating circuit 11 reaches 10.6kW, indicating that the induction heating circuit 11 can operate at full power within the frequency range of the equipment. Therefore, "1" can be displayed in the result display module of the display, with the maximum power point value being 10.6kW and the corresponding frequency value being 395.508KHz.

[0081] The implementation principle of the automatic detection method for the matching degree of a high-frequency induction heating coil according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: This automatic detection method is applied to a high-frequency induction heating system, which includes an induction heating circuit 11, a sampling module 13, and a control chip 12. The output terminal of the induction heating circuit is connected to the induction coil Lr. The induction heating circuit 11 includes a three-phase power grid, an uncontrolled rectifier module, a voltage regulation module, and a high-frequency inverter module. The control chip 12 establishes electrical and communication connections with the induction heating circuit 11 and the sampling module 13 to realize the transmission of signal and data information.

[0082] The control chip 12 has a built-in data recording module to record the operating data collected by the sampling module 13. The control chip 12 analyzes the operating data to adjust the operating frequency of the high-frequency induction heating system. The control chip 12 determines whether the operating power output by the induction heating circuit 11 within the frequency range of the high-frequency induction heating system meets a preset ratio. If the preset ratio is met, the determination result of the output coil and the high-frequency induction heating system is "matched"; if the preset ratio is not met, the determination result of the output coil and the high-frequency induction heating system is "mismatched", and corresponding debugging prompts are output. This automatic detection method can detect whether the induction coil Lr is matched with the induction heating equipment without the need for special measuring tools, thereby assisting customers in better optimizing the induction coil Lr.
