When the brake is released, the safety and comfort of the elevator will be affected. Generally, the elevator needs to be stopped under two working conditions.

It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0034] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, when a certain component “includes” another component, unless otherwise stated, other components are not excluded and other components may be further included.

[0035] The present application embodiment provides a power supply circuit for supplying power to a brake coil; Figure 1 As shown, the power supply circuit includes: an AC source module 1, a first switch module 2, an AC / DC conversion module 3, a voltage conversion module 4, a freewheeling module 5, a second switch module 6 and an energy absorption module 7.

[0036] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the first switch module 2 and the AC / DC conversion module 3 are arranged in series at the first end of the AC source module 1 (such as Figure 1 L end as shown) and the second end (as shown Figure 1The two input terminals of the voltage conversion module 4 are electrically connected to the positive and negative poles of the AC / DC conversion module 3 respectively; the freewheeling module 5, the second switch module 6 and the energy absorption module 7 are sequentially arranged in series between the positive and negative poles of the voltage conversion module 4; the brake coil L is arranged in parallel with the energy absorption module 7.

[0037] Among them, the AC source module is used to provide an AC signal to the AC-DC conversion module; the first switch module is used to remain disconnected during the release period of the brake and remain closed during the lifting period of the brake; the AC-DC conversion module is used to convert the AC signal output by the AC source module into a first DC signal during the lifting period of the brake; the voltage conversion module is used to convert the first DC signal output by the AC-DC conversion module into a second DC signal during the lifting period of the brake, wherein the voltage values ​​of the second DC signal and the first DC signal are different.

[0038] The second switch module is used to remain disconnected in the first time period within the release cycle of the brake, and remain closed in other time periods except the first time period, wherein the first time period is any time period within the release cycle of the brake; the freewheeling module is used to form a freewheeling loop with the second switch module, the brake coil and the voltage conversion module when the second switch module remains closed; the energy absorption module is used to absorb the energy released by the brake coil when the second switch module remains disconnected.

[0039] The above-mentioned power supply circuit is used to supply power to the brake coil; when the brake coil is energized, the brake can be controlled to be in a released state (i.e., the brake is released); when the brake coil is not energized, the brake can be controlled to be in a locked state (i.e., the brake is locked).

[0040] The specific structure of the AC source module is not limited. By way of example, the AC source module may include an AC source having a voltage of 220V.

[0041] The specific structure of the first switch module is not limited. For example, the first switch module may include at least one contact switch or at least one group of contact switches; or the first switch module may include other types of switches.

[0042] The AC / DC conversion module may include a rectifier. The type of the rectifier is not limited here, as long as it can convert AC into DC.

[0043] The voltage conversion module may include a transformer or a DCDC converter, etc., and the first DC signal is converted into a second DC signal.

[0044] The above-mentioned freewheeling module may include at least one crystal diode. The type of the crystal diode is not limited here and can be selected according to actual requirements.

[0045] The above-mentioned second switch module may include at least one MOS (Metal Oxide Semiconductor, N-type metal oxide semiconductor) tube or at least one transistor, etc. The MOS tube may be an NMOS (Negative-channelMetal Oxide Semiconductor, N-type metal oxide semiconductor) tube or a PMOS (Positive-channelMetal Oxide Semiconductor, P-type metal oxide semiconductor) tube, which is not limited here; the transistor may be an NPN transistor or a PNP transistor, which is not limited here.

[0046] The energy absorption module may include a voltage regulator tube and a crystal diode connected in series, and may also include other structures, which are not limited here.

[0047] In the power supply circuit provided by the embodiment of the present application, during the release cycle of the brake, the first switch module remains disconnected, and power cannot be supplied to the brake coil; during the first period of the release cycle of the brake, the second switch module remains disconnected, and at this time the brake coil quickly releases a large amount of energy through the energy absorption module; during the other periods of the release cycle of the brake except the first period, the second switch module remains closed, and at this time the freewheeling module, the second switch module, the brake coil and the voltage conversion module form a freewheeling loop, and the brake coil slowly releases the remaining energy through the freewheeling loop. Compared with the prior art that uses a freewheeling loop to release the energy of the brake coil during the release cycle of the brake, the power supply circuit provided by the embodiment of the present application can significantly reduce the release response time and noise of the brake under normal working conditions, thereby improving comfort.

[0048] It should be noted that the duration of the first time period and the position of the time period within the brake release cycle will directly affect the comfort.

[0049] The time period position of the first time period within the release cycle of the brake is provided below.

[0050] In one or more embodiments, reference Figure 2 As shown in the curve a, the starting time t2 of the first time period M1 is greater than the starting time t0 of the release cycle M of the brake, and the ending time t3 of the first time period M1 is less than the ending time t1 of the release cycle M of the brake.

[0051] If the duration of the first period is too long, the brake coil may quickly release all the energy through the energy absorption module, so that the brake will stop quickly, which is not conducive to further reducing noise and further improving comfort; if the duration of the first period is too short, the brake coil can only release a small amount of energy through the energy absorption module, which is not conducive to further shortening the release response time; therefore, the duration of the first period needs to be compatible with shortening the response time and improving comfort.

[0052] In order to better shorten the response time, further reduce noise and improve comfort, the duration of the first period is the time required for the energy absorption module to absorb the preset energy value, and the percentage of the preset energy value to the energy value released by the brake coil is in the range of [40%, 80%]. The percentage of the preset energy value to the energy value released by the brake coil can be 40%, 50%, 60%, 70% or 80%, etc.

[0053] Under normal working conditions, only the freewheeling circuit is used to discharge the brake coil. Figure 1 As shown, at this time, the second switch module remains closed in the brake release period M0, and the corresponding discharge curve of the brake coil in the freewheeling state can be as follows: Figure 3 As shown, after a large number of measurements, the time required for the brake coil current to slowly drop from 100% to the critical value of brake release (about 20%) is between 400 and 800 ms, which exceeds the regulatory requirement of 500 ms.

[0054] Figure 2 The discharge curve of the brake coil in the freewheeling state corresponding to the middle curve a can be shown as Figure 4 As shown, in the 3-9ms period at the beginning of the brake release cycle, the second switch module is disconnected, and the brake coil is rapidly discharged through the energy absorption module, and the energy is released to about 30%; then the second switch module is closed, and the brake coil slowly releases the remaining energy through the freewheeling circuit; Figure 3 In comparison, this method can significantly shorten the release response time of the brake while ensuring good elevator comfort, while better controlling noise. This method can adopt different follow-up control times for different brakes, and has more extreme performance.

[0055] Another time period position of the first time period within the brake release cycle is provided below.

[0056] In one or more embodiments, reference Figure 2 As shown in the curve b, the starting time t4 of the first time period M1 is greater than the starting time t0 of the release cycle M of the brake, and the ending time t5 of the first time period M1 is equal to the ending time t5 of the release cycle M of the brake.

[0057] Here, the duration of the first period can be selected as required, as long as the overall release response time meets the regulatory requirements. For example, the duration of the first period can range from [10ms, 200ms], and the duration of the first period can be 10ms, 20ms, 30ms, 50ms, 70ms, 100ms, 150ms or 200ms, etc.

[0058] Figure 2 The discharge curve of the brake coil in the freewheeling state corresponding to the middle curve b can be shown as Figure 5 As shown, in the early and middle stages of the brake release cycle, the second switch module is closed, and the brake coil slowly releases part of the energy through the freewheeling circuit. The duration of this stage can be 300-400ms; in the late stage of the brake release cycle, the second switch module is disconnected, and the brake coil quickly discharges the remaining energy through the energy absorption module, thereby shortening the brake release response time and ensuring that regulatory requirements are met. Figure 3 In comparison, this method can shorten the release response time of the brake and adopt the same follow-up control time for different brakes, thereby obtaining more consistent noise control and response time. It has wider adaptability and consistency and is more suitable for general scenarios.

[0059] In addition, refer to Figure 2 As shown, in an emergency condition (i.e., when emergency braking is required), the second switch module can be quickly disconnected (such as disconnecting the second switch module at time t7), so that the brake coil is quickly discharged through the energy absorption module, thereby achieving rapid braking.

[0060] In one or more embodiments, reference Figure 1 As shown, the voltage conversion module 3 includes a transformer B, the second switch module 6 includes a first MOS tube or a first crystal triode T1, the freewheeling module 5 includes a first crystal diode D1, and the energy absorption module 7 includes a voltage regulator tube DZ and a second crystal diode D2 connected in series. Figure 1 The second switch module 6 including the first transistor T1 is taken as an example for illustration.

[0061] refer to Figure 1As shown, the two ends of the primary coil L1 of the transformer B are electrically connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the AC / DC conversion module 3 respectively, the positive electrode of the secondary coil L2 of the transformer B is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the first crystal diode D1, the negative electrode of the first crystal diode D1 is electrically connected to the first end of the first MOS tube or the first crystal triode T1, the second end of the first MOS tube or the first crystal triode T1 is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the voltage regulator tube DZ, the negative electrode of the voltage regulator tube DZ is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the second crystal diode D2, the positive electrode of the second crystal diode D2 is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the secondary coil L2 of the transformer B, one end of the brake coil L is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the voltage regulator tube DZ, and the other end is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the second crystal diode D2.

[0062] The first MOS tube may include a source, a drain and a gate. The first end of the first MOS tube may be a source end and the second end may be a drain end; or, the first end of the first MOS tube may be a drain end and the second end may be a source end, which is not limited here and can be determined according to the type of the first MOS tube. The gate end of the first MOS tube may be connected to a driving voltage, so that the first MOS tube is opened or closed under the control of the driving voltage. The first transistor may include a base, a collector and an emitter. The first end of the first transistor may be a collector end and the second end may be an emitter end; or, the first end of the first transistor may be an emitter end and the second end may be a collector end, which is not limited here and can be determined according to the type of the first transistor. Figure 1 In the figure, the first transistor T1 is illustrated as a PNP transistor. At this time, the first end of the first transistor T1 is the emitter terminal e, and the second end is the collector terminal c.

[0063] The above-mentioned series-connected voltage regulator and the second crystal diode can form a TVS tube (Transient Voltage Suppressor), which has an extremely fast response time and a relatively high surge absorption capacity. When its two ends are subjected to a momentary high-energy impact, the TVS tube can change the impedance value between the two ends from high impedance to low impedance at a very high speed to absorb a momentary large current and clamp the voltage between its two ends to a predetermined value, thereby protecting the subsequent circuit components from the impact of transient high-voltage spike pulses.

[0064] In one or more embodiments, in order to filter the signal generated by the transformer to obtain a signal with better quality, reference Figure 1 As shown, the power supply circuit also includes a first capacitor C1, one end of the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to the cathode of the first crystal diode D1, and the other end is electrically connected to the cathode of the secondary coil L2 of the transformer B; the first capacitor C1 can filter the signal transmitted by the secondary coil L2 to reduce noise.

[0065] In one or more embodiments, reference Figure 1 As shown, the AC source module 1 includes an AC source AC, the first switch module 2 includes a first group of contact switches 21 and a second group of contact switches 22, both groups of contact switches include a contact switch K1 of a first relay and a contact switch K2 of a second relay connected in series, and the AC-DC conversion module 3 includes a rectifier TB; the first end of the AC source AC, the first group of contact switches 21 and the first input end of the rectifier TB are electrically connected in sequence, and the second end of the AC source AC, the second group of contact switches 22 and the second input end of the rectifier TB are electrically connected in sequence.

[0066] The brake coil can only be powered when the first and second contact switches are closed at the same time; when any one of the first and second contact switches is disconnected, the brake coil is powered off.

[0067] In one or more embodiments, reference Figure 1 As shown, the power supply circuit also includes a resistor R, a second capacitor C2 and a second MOS tube or a second transistor T2; one end of the resistor R is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the rectifier TB, and the other end is electrically connected to the first end of the primary coil L1 of the transformer B; the first end of the second MOS tube or the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the second end of the primary coil L1 of the transformer B; the second end of the second MOS tube or the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the rectifier; one end of the second capacitor C2 is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the rectifier TB, and the other end is electrically connected to the first end of the primary coil L1 of the transformer B.

[0068] Figure 1 The second transistor T2 is used as an example for illustration. The description of the first end and the second end of the second MOS transistor and the second transistor can refer to the description of the first MOS transistor and the first transistor, which will not be repeated here. Figure 1 In the embodiment, the second transistor T2 and the first transistor T1 are both PNP transistors.

The second MOS tube or the second transistor can perform PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) processing on the signal to achieve signal wave spreading.

[0070] In one or more embodiments, in order to better control the first switch module and the second switch module, the power supply circuit further includes a control module, and the control module is used to control the opening and closing of the first switch module and the second switch module.

Compared with the prior art that uses a freewheeling loop to release the energy of the brake coil during the release cycle of the brake, the electronic device provided by the embodiment of the present application can significantly reduce the release response time and noise of the brake under normal working conditions, thereby improving comfort.

[0072] The electronic device may be an elevator, which may be used in various buildings such as residences, office buildings, shopping malls, etc. Under normal working conditions, the electronic device has a short brake release response time, low noise, and good comfort.
