Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of underwater robots and electric power technology, and in particular to an underwater robot power supply system and a power supply control method. Background Art
[0002] Heavy-duty underwater vehicles, such as deep-sea ROVs, burrowing plows, trenchers, and mining vehicles, typically require power transmission over long distances and with significant voltage drop under power. This typically requires converting surface ship power to high voltage before supplying power to the underwater motors and control systems via an umbilical cable. Underwater high-voltage motors are typically started directly using a contactor connected to a step-up transformer, using a thyristor soft starter connected to a step-up transformer, or using a frequency converter connected to a step-up transformer. Each starting method has its own advantages and disadvantages: Direct starting offers high torque and simplicity, but also generates the highest starting current, which can easily cause system voltage drop and equipment malfunction, and requires a larger shipboard power supply capacity. Soft starters significantly reduce starting current, but still require 2-3 times the starting current, and significantly reduce starting torque, making starting torque insufficient for some loads. Frequency converters offer lower starting current and higher starting torque, but are more expensive, lack bypass circuitry, require long-term operation, suffer from high losses, and have low reliability.
[0003] refer to Figure 1 The current solution shown has the following problems:
[0004] 1) Both the soft starter and the inverter soft start method are one-to-one starting of one underwater motor and one soft starter or inverter, which is relatively costly;
[0005] 2) The power supply system has unbalanced loads because the underwater control power supply and surface power consumption are single-phase loads, which can easily cause ship power imbalance;
[0006] 3) The system has no reactive power compensation, low power factor, high energy consumption, large cables and large investment;
[0007] 4) Direct start and soft start require large ship power capacity, which increases investment and operating costs. Summary of the Invention

[0057] The power regulation and starting circuit comprises a power regulation circuit composed of a power regulator and a first circuit breaker QF1 connected in series, and a starting circuit composed of a second circuit breaker QF2 and a first switching switch KM41-KM4n connected in series, wherein the power regulation circuit and the starting circuit are connected in parallel.
[0058] The load power supply main circuit comprises a power supply branch, which comprises a third circuit breaker QF31-QF3n, a second switching switch KM31-KM3n, a first water surface step-up transformer T31-T3n, and an underwater motor M31-M3n connected in series, and the power supply branch is connected with the first switching switch KM41-KM4n.

[0062] In some embodiments, the first common power connection point PCC2 is the underwater single-phase control system power branch, which is used for underwater power control; the second common power connection point PCC3 is the deck single-phase control system power branch, which is used for deck power control on board; the third common power connection point PCC4 is the other three-phase power branch.
[0063] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 The topological block diagram of a power conditioner is shown. The power conditioner includes a starting unit 2-1, an incoming line filter 2-2, an incoming line converter 2-3, an outgoing line converter 2-4, an outgoing line filter 2-5, and a power conditioner control unit 2-6, which are connected in sequence.

The sinusoidal filters are used to process grid-connected harmonics and power supply harmonics. The outgoing filter reduces the peak voltage on the long-distance transmission umbilical cable, thereby affecting the insulation of the umbilical cable and the motor.

[0068] In some embodiments, the power regulator further includes processing of the following switches according to the control mode:
[0069] When the control mode is the power regulation mode, the first switching switch KM41-KM4n, the second switching switch KM31-KM3n, the third switching switch KM4 and the fast switching switch QTS are turned off, the bypass switch is closed, and the incoming line converter 2-3 and the outgoing line converter 2-4 are connected to the public power connection bus point PCC1 respectively.
[0070] When the control mode is the reactive mode, the first switching switch KM41-KM4n, the second switching switch KM31-KM3n, the third switching switch KM4 and the fast switching switch QTS are turned off, the bypass switch is opened, and the incoming line converter 2-3 is connected to the public power connection bus point PCC1.
[0071] When the control mode is the soft start mode, the switching switch is controlled to be closed according to the switching branch, the bypass switch is opened, and the fast switching switch QTS is turned off before soft start.
[0072] When the control mode is the soft stop mode, the switching switch is controlled to be closed according to the switching branch, the bypass switch is opened, and the fast switching switch QTS is turned on before soft stop and the corresponding switching switch is turned off.
[0073] In some embodiments, the power regulator and the fast switching switch are directly connected in high voltage, and the step-up transformer T31-T32 in the scheme can be cancelled, which has the same effect.
[0074] In some embodiments, the power regulator is replaced by a general frequency converter or an energy feedback frequency converter, and the main difference is the control method. The lost effect is that the system power factor regulation and load balancing cannot be realized.
[0075] In some embodiments, the fast switching switch uses IGBT, GTO and other fast switching devices, which has the same technical effect, but the cost and complexity are higher.
