Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of power supply control, and in particular to a method and device for automatically switching and controlling a high-power bidirectional dual-path DC input. Background Art

[0002] In the field of power control technology, inverters are typically used to convert input DC power into output AC power to meet the power demands of AC loads. This process typically utilizes dual DC inputs to improve the inverter's power supply reliability. This means that if one input fails, the inverter can seamlessly switch to the other input, ensuring the inverter's DC input supply and maintaining continuous output power. Furthermore, dual DC inputs enable energy scheduling from different DC sources, allowing for the targeted selection of a primary power supply branch based on the grid system's energy scheduling needs.

[0003] The existing technologies or products rely on uncontrolled devices such as diodes to achieve DC input switching of inverter power supplies, which has the following shortcomings: (1) The switching judgment condition is single, and only the input branch with a high voltage value can be selected. When the voltage of the main branch is slightly lower but still within the normal voltage range, it is impossible to give priority to the main branch; (2) There is no voltage difference protection judgment during switching. When there is a large difference between the voltage of the branch to be switched in and the DC bus capacitor inside the power supply, direct switching will cause a large instantaneous current to charge the bus capacitor, which may cause the input voltage and output voltage of the inverter power supply to fluctuate, and even cause the voltage front-stage DC input side protection switch to operate; (3) There is no reverse channel for switching. Due to reasons such as multiple machines in parallel, grid-connected operation, motor pumping, etc., the inverter power supply may have reverse input power on the AC side, causing DC bus overvoltage. If there are no energy consumption or discharge measures, it may cause DC overvoltage protection shutdown. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide an automatic switching control method and device that adopts a dual-path input structure and can realize bidirectional power flow in each path and uninterrupted switching of dual-path DC inputs, in order to address the problems in the prior art of dual-path DC input inverter power supply in the process of power conversion, such as single switching judgment conditions, no voltage difference protection during switching, and no discharge measures.

[0005] The technical solution of the present application is to provide a high-power bidirectional dual-path DC input automatic switching control method, which is used for multiple inverter power supplies arranged in parallel, wherein adjacent inverter power supplies are connected through a DC bus switch, and a controller, an inverter circuit, a voltage sampling component, a drive circuit and two DC input branches with the same structure are arranged inside a single inverter power supply, and the two DC input branches are arranged in parallel and the output ends of the two DC input branches are respectively connected to the inverter circuit through a DC bus. The method is characterized in that the method comprises: step 1, using the two DC input branches as the main branch and the standby branch respectively, closing the DC switch between the DC power supply and the inverter power input end; step 2, using the slow-start components in the two DC input branches to limit the DC input current to a preset safety value, and after the voltage of the DC bus reaches a predetermined range, controlling the fast forward conduction positive component and the fast forward conduction negative component in the main branch to conduct through the controller, so that the main branch is forward-conducted, so that the DC power supply supplies power to the inverter circuit through the main branch; step 3, using the controller to monitor the voltage of the main branch input end and the bus in real time voltage and the state of the DC switch. When the monitoring result meets the preset conditions, the DC input branch is switched. When the monitoring result does not meet the preset conditions, the main branch continues to be used for power supply, wherein the preset conditions are: the bus voltage is lower than the first threshold value or the DC input voltage is lower than the second threshold value or the DC switch is opened; step 4, judging whether to reverse conduct the DC input branch according to the bus voltage. When the bus voltage does not exceed the preset overvoltage limit, the current DC input branch continues to be forward conducted. When the bus voltage exceeds the overvoltage limit, the controller controls the fast reverse conduction positive component and the fast reverse conduction negative component in the current DC input branch to conduct, so that the current DC input branch is reverse conducted, and the active current is fed back to the DC input terminal of the current inverter power supply, and step 4 is executed; step 5, continuing to monitor the bus voltage. When the bus voltage is less than the predetermined voltage threshold in the reverse conduction state, the current DC input branch is forward conducted again. When the bus voltage is still greater than or equal to the predetermined voltage threshold in the reverse conduction state, the DC bus tie switch is turned on to feed the active current back to the DC input terminals of all parallel inverter power supplies.

[0006] Furthermore, step 2 specifically includes: after the DC switch is turned on, the DC input current reaches the DC bus through the slow-start components in the two DC input branches, the voltage of the DC bus gradually increases, and the slow-start component limits the DC input current to a preset safety value through internal resistance. The controller monitors the voltage of the DC bus in real time through the voltage sampling component. After the voltage of the DC bus reaches a predetermined range, the controller controls the fast forward conducting positive component and the fast forward conducting negative component in the main branch through the drive circuit to turn on. The DC power supply supplies power to the inverter circuit through the main branch, and the inverter circuit converts the DC input current into AC current and outputs the AC current.

[0007] Furthermore, step 3 specifically includes: setting voltage sampling components between the positive and negative poles of the DC input branch input end and between the positive and negative poles of the DC bus, respectively; the controller monitors the main branch input end voltage and the bus DC line voltage in real time through the voltage sampling components; the controller is connected to the DC switch; the controller monitors the state of the DC switch in real time; when at least one of the conditions of the bus voltage being lower than the first threshold, the DC input voltage being lower than the second threshold, or the DC switch being opened is met, it is determined that the DC input of the current inverter power supply is in an abnormal state; the controller quickly turns on the fast forward conducting positive electrode component and the fast forward conducting negative electrode component in the standby branch through the driving circuit, and uses the standby branch to power the inverter circuit; when all conditions are not met, it is determined that the DC input of the current inverter power supply is in a normal working state, and the main branch continues to be used to power the inverter circuit.

[0008] Furthermore, step 4 specifically includes: presetting an overvoltage limit so that the overvoltage limit is less than the maximum operating voltage of all devices inside the inverter power supply, the controller monitors the bus DC line voltage in real time through the voltage sampling component, when the bus voltage does not exceed the preset overvoltage limit, it is determined that the bus voltage does not increase abnormally, and the current DC input branch continues to be forward-conducted, when the bus voltage exceeds the overvoltage limit, it is determined that the bus voltage increases abnormally, the controller turns on the fast reverse-conducting positive component and the fast reverse-conducting negative component in the current DC input branch through the drive circuit, and at the same time turns off the fast forward-conducting positive component and the fast forward-conducting negative component, and feeds back the active current at the DC bus to the DC input terminal of the current inverter power supply, so that the DC bus voltage drops to a range less than or equal to the overvoltage limit.

[0009] Furthermore, step 5 specifically includes: the controller continues to monitor the bus DC line voltage in real time through the sampling component; when the bus voltage in the reverse conduction state is less than a predetermined voltage threshold, the controller turns on the fast forward conduction positive component and the fast forward conduction negative component in the current DC input branch through the driving circuit, and at the same time turns off the fast reverse conduction positive component and the fast reverse conduction negative component; when the bus voltage in the reverse conduction state is still greater than or equal to the predetermined voltage threshold, the controller turns on the DC bus tie switch to feed back the active current to the DC input terminals of all parallel inverter power supplies, so that the DC bus voltage drops to a range not exceeding the overvoltage limit.

[0023] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of the present application, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features therein can be combined with each other in the absence of conflict.

[0024] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a high-power bidirectional dual-channel DC input automatic switching device, which is an inverter power supply with power-on slow start, voltage difference protection, and reverse current conduction functions. The device includes: a first DC input branch, a second DC input branch, a voltage sampling component, a drive circuit, a controller and an inverter circuit.

[0026] In this embodiment, the first DC input branch and the second DC input branch are two DC input branches with the same structure. The DC input branch includes a slow-start component, a fast forward conducting positive electrode component, a fast reverse conducting positive electrode component, a fast forward conducting negative electrode component and a fast reverse conducting negative electrode component. The first DC input branch and the second DC input branch are respectively introduced in detail below.

[0027] The input end of the first DC input branch is connected to the external DC power supply through a DC switch, and the output end is connected to the inverter circuit through a DC bus; specifically, a first DC input positive pole V1P and a first DC input negative pole V1N are set on the side of the first DC input branch connected to the DC power supply, the first DC input positive pole V1P is used to connect to the positive pole of the external DC power supply through the DC switch, and the first DC input negative pole V1N is used to connect to the negative pole of the external DC power supply through the DC switch, the positive and negative poles of the side of the first DC input branch connected to the inverter circuit are respectively connected to the DC bus positive pole VbusP and the DC bus negative pole VbusN, and the DC bus positive pole VbusP and the DC bus negative pole VbusN are respectively connected to the inverter circuit.

[0028] The first DC input branch includes a first slow-start component P10, a first fast forward conducting positive component P11, a first fast reverse conducting positive component P12, a first fast forward conducting negative component N11 and a first fast reverse conducting negative component N12; wherein, the first slow-start component P10, the first fast forward conducting positive component P11 and the first fast reverse conducting positive component P12 are arranged in parallel between the first DC input positive pole V1P and the DC bus positive pole VbusP, and the first fast forward conducting negative component N11 and the first fast reverse conducting negative component N12 are arranged in parallel between the first DC input negative pole V1N and the DC bus negative pole VbusN.

[0029] The first ramp-up component P10 is used to limit the DC input current to a safe value during initial power-up until the DC bus voltage reaches the preset DC input voltage. Its input is connected to the first DC input positive terminal V1P, and its output is connected to the DC bus positive terminal VbusP. The first ramp-up component P10 consists of a diode D10 and a resistor R10 connected in series. Resistor R10 slows the current rise rate, while D10 limits the current to forward conduction.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the DC input voltage is applied to the first slow-start component P10, the resistor R10 limits the increase of instantaneous current to prevent excessive current from impacting the circuit. After the resistor limits the current, the voltage of the DC bus will gradually rise and gradually approach the preset DC input voltage. This process effectively realizes the slow start and avoids the instantaneous large current caused by directly applying high voltage. D10 ensures that the current is only conducted in the forward direction to prevent the influence of reverse current and further protect the circuit.

[0031] In this embodiment, a slow-start component is used to control the rising speed of the voltage and current in the DC bus to avoid current surges or voltage mutations in the circuit at the moment of power-on, achieve smooth startup of the power input, and avoid damage to sensitive components in the circuit.

[0032] The first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11 is used to conduct forward conduction (forward conduction refers to the conduction state when the DC power supply supplies power to the inverter circuit) under the triggering of the driving circuit, so that the DC power supply supplies power to the inverter circuit. The input end of the first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11 is connected to the first DC input positive electrode V1P, and the output end is connected to the DC bus positive electrode VbusP; the first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11 consists of a silicon controlled rectifier SCR11 (Silicon A Controlled Rectifier (a semiconductor device with three terminals, whose conduction requires a trigger signal to be applied to the control electrode G), consists of a capacitor C11, a resistor R11, and a diode D11. The resistor R11 and the diode D11 are connected in parallel, and the entire combination of the resistor R11 and the diode D11 is connected in series with the capacitor C11. The entire combination of the capacitor C11, the resistor R11, and the diode D11 is connected in parallel with the thyristor rectifier SCR11. The thyristor rectifier SCR11 is used to control the on and off of the first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11 according to the trigger signal sent by the drive circuit. The capacitor C11 is used to smooth the voltage changes of the first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11 through the charging and discharging process to prevent instantaneous current surges. The resistor R11 is used to limit the amount of current passing through to prevent excessive current from damaging other components. The diode D11 is used to prevent reverse current flow in the first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11. The anode of the silicon-controlled rectifier SCR11 is directed toward the input of the first fast-forward-conducting positive electrode component P11, and the cathode of the silicon-controlled rectifier SCR11 is directed toward the output of the first fast-forward-conducting positive electrode component P11. The silicon-controlled rectifier SCR11 conducts from the positive electrode of the DC input branch to the positive electrode of the DC bus. Its control electrode G is connected to the drive circuit, and the diode D11 conducts from the positive electrode of the DC input branch to the positive electrode of the DC bus.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the driving circuit does not send a trigger signal, SCR11 is in the off state, no current flows through the branch where it is located, and capacitor C11 enters the charging state to limit the current passing through capacitor C11. R11 prevents the capacitor from charging too quickly or excessive current from occurring when SCR11 is not turned on. After the driving circuit sends a trigger signal to the control electrode G of SCR11, SCR11 is turned on, and current flows through the branch where it is located. Capacitor C11 discharges quickly when SCR11 is triggered and provides instantaneous energy to SCR11, helping the circuit to quickly establish current at the moment of turn-on. After discharging, capacitor C11 enters the charging state again. During the whole process, D11 prevents reverse current to ensure that the current flows in the expected direction when SCR11 is triggered.

[0034] The first fast reverse conducting positive electrode component P12 is used to reverse conduct when triggered by the driving circuit (reverse conduction refers to the conduction state in which the inverter circuit feeds back the active current to the DC input end of the current inverter power supply), so that the inverter circuit feeds back the active current to the input end of the DC input branch. The input end of the first fast reverse conducting positive electrode component P12 is connected to the DC bus positive electrode VbusP, and the output end is connected to the first DC input positive electrode V1P; the first fast reverse conducting positive electrode component P12 is composed of a thyristor rectifier SCR12, a capacitor C12, a resistor R12 and a diode D12. The structure and working principle of the first fast reverse conducting positive electrode component P12 are the same as those of the first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11. The conduction direction of the first fast reverse conducting positive electrode component P12 is opposite to that of the first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11. The conduction direction of the thyristor rectifier SCR12 is from the DC bus positive electrode to the DC input branch positive electrode, and its control electrode G is connected to the drive circuit. The conduction direction of the diode D12 is from the DC bus positive electrode to the DC input branch positive electrode. No further details are given here.

[0035] The first fast forward conducting negative electrode component N11 is used to conduct forward conduction when triggered by the drive circuit, so that the DC power supply supplies power to the inverter circuit. The input end of the first fast forward conducting negative electrode component N11 is connected to the first DC input negative electrode V1N, and the output end is connected to the DC bus negative electrode VbusN. The first fast forward conducting negative electrode component N11 is composed of a thyristor rectifier SCR13, a capacitor C13, a resistor R13 and a diode D13. The resistor R13 and the diode D13 are connected in parallel, and the whole composed of the resistor R13 and the diode D13 is connected in series with the capacitor C13. The whole composed of the capacitor C13, the resistor R13 and the diode D13 is connected to the thyristor. Rectifier SCR13 is connected in parallel. The silicon-controlled rectifier SCR13 is used to control the on and off of the first fast forward conducting negative electrode component N11 according to the trigger signal sent by the drive circuit. Capacitor C13 is used to smooth the voltage changes of the first fast forward conducting negative electrode component N11 through the charging and discharging process to prevent instantaneous current surges. Resistor R13 is used to limit the amount of current passing through to prevent excessive current from damaging other components. Diode D13 is used to prevent current from flowing backward in the first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11. The structure and operating principle of the first fast forward conducting negative electrode component N11 are similar to those of the first fast forward conducting positive electrode component P11. The conduction direction of the silicon-controlled rectifier SCR13 is from the negative electrode of the DC input branch to the negative electrode of the DC bus. Its control electrode G is connected to the drive circuit. The conduction direction of the diode D13 is from the negative electrode of the DC input branch to the negative electrode of the DC bus. These details will not be repeated here.

[0036] The first fast reverse conducting negative electrode component N12 is configured to reverse conduct when triggered by the drive circuit, causing the inverter circuit to feed active current back to the input of the DC input branch. The input of the first fast reverse conducting negative electrode component N12 is connected to the negative DC bus VbusN, and the output is connected to the first DC input negative electrode V1N. The first fast reverse conducting negative electrode component N12 comprises a thyristor rectifier SCR14, a capacitor C14, a resistor R14, and a diode D14. The structure and operating principle of the first fast reverse conducting negative electrode component N12 are the same as those of the first fast forward conducting negative electrode component N11. The first fast reverse conducting negative electrode component N12 and the first fast forward conducting negative electrode component N11 have opposite conduction directions. Specifically, the conduction direction of the thyristor rectifier SCR14 is from the negative DC bus to the negative DC input branch, and its control electrode G is connected to the drive circuit. The conduction direction of the diode D14 is from the negative DC bus to the negative DC input branch. Details thereof will not be repeated here.

[0037] One side of the second DC input branch is connected to the external DC power supply through a DC switch, and the other side is connected to the inverter circuit through a DC bus; specifically, a second DC input positive pole V2P and a second DC input negative pole V2N are set on the side of the second DC input branch connected to the DC power supply, the second DC input positive pole V2P is used to connect to the positive pole of the external DC power supply through the DC switch, and the second DC input negative pole V2N is used to connect to the negative pole of the external DC power supply through the DC switch, the positive and negative poles of the side of the second DC input branch connected to the inverter circuit are respectively connected to the DC bus positive pole VbusP and the DC bus negative pole VbusN, and the DC bus positive pole VbusP and the DC bus negative pole VbusN are respectively connected to the inverter circuit.

[0038] The first DC input branch and the second DC input branch are arranged in parallel in the inverter power supply. When in use, one of them is selected to be opened for power transmission. When one of the branches fails, it can be instantly switched to the other branch. For example, when the first DC input branch is opened, the first DC input positive electrode V1P and the first DC input negative electrode V1N are connected to the DC power supply through the DC switch, and the current of the DC power supply is supplied to the inverter current through the first DC input branch.

[0049] The inverter circuit is set inside the inverter power supply and is used to convert the input direct current into alternating current for output.

[0050] The high-power bidirectional dual-channel DC input automatic switching device also includes a bus tie switch SD0, which is set between two adjacent power supplies and is used to connect different DC power supplies to achieve load distribution between different power supplies and improve the reliability and flexibility of the power supply system.

[0051] Specifically, the positive and negative poles of adjacent DC power supplies are connected via bus tie switches SD0; Figure 1 As shown, inverter power supply A and inverter power supply B are connected in parallel, DC power supply VDC1 supplies power to inverter power supply A, and DC power supply VDC2 supplies power to inverter power supply B. A bus tie switch SD0 is provided between DC power supply VDC1 and DC power supply VDC2. The positive electrode of DC power supply VDC1 is connected to the positive electrode of DC power supply VDC2 through the bus tie switch SD0, and the negative electrode of DC power supply VDC1 is connected to the negative electrode of DC power supply VDC2 through the bus tie switch SD0.

[0052] This embodiment provides a high-power bidirectional dual-channel DC input automatic switching control method. The method is used for multiple inverter power supplies arranged in parallel. Adjacent inverter power supplies are connected via a DC bus tie switch SD0. A single inverter power supply is internally provided with two identical DC input branches, as well as a voltage sampling component, a drive circuit, a controller, and an inverter circuit. The two DC input branches are arranged in parallel, and the output ends of the two DC input branches are respectively connected to the inverter circuit via a DC bus. The control method includes the following steps:

[0053] Step 1: Set the two DC input branches in the inverter power supply as the main branch and the standby branch respectively, close the DC switch SD1 between the external DC power supply VDC1 and the inverter power supply input terminal, and the DC power supply VDC1 starts to supply power to the inverter power supply.

[0054] Select any DC input branch in the current inverter power supply as the main branch, close the DC switch SD1 between the DC power supply VDC1 and the main branch DC, connect the positive and negative poles of the main branch input end to the positive and negative poles of the DC power supply respectively, so that the DC power supply VDC1 supplies power to the main branch; specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the inverter power supply includes a first DC input branch and a second DC input branch. When the first DC input branch serves as the main branch, the first DC input positive pole V1P and the first DC input negative pole V1N are connected to the positive pole and negative pole of the DC power supply VDC1 respectively. When the second DC input branch serves as the main branch, the second DC input positive pole V2P and the second DC input negative pole V2N are connected to the positive pole and negative pole of the DC power supply VDC1 respectively.

[0055] In this embodiment, before the DC power supply is connected, one of the two DC input branches with the same structure can be selected as the main branch, and the other can be used as a backup branch to be switched. When a problem occurs in the main branch, the controller can instantly switch to the backup branch to continue to power the inverter circuit in the inverter power supply.

[0056] Step 2: Use the slow-start components in the two DC input branches to limit the DC input current to a preset safety value. After the voltage of the DC bus reaches a predetermined range, the controller controls the fast forward-conducting positive component and the fast forward-conducting negative component in the main branch to conduct, so that the positive main branch is conducted, and the DC power supply VDC1 supplies power to the inverter circuit through the main branch.

[0057] After turning on the DC switch SD1 between the DC power supply and the inverter power supply input terminal, the DC current output by the DC power supply VDC1 is passed into the inverter power supply, and the DC input current reaches the DC bus through the slow-start components in the two DC input branches. The voltage of the DC bus gradually increases under the action of the DC input current. During this process, the slow-start component limits the DC input current to a preset safety value through an internally set resistor. The controller monitors the voltage between the positive and negative poles of the DC bus in real time through the voltage sampling component. After the voltage of the DC bus reaches a predetermined range, the controller controls the drive circuit to send a trigger signal to the fast forward conduction positive component and the fast forward conduction negative component in the conduction main branch, so that the fast forward conduction positive component and the fast forward conduction negative component in the main branch are turned on, so that the entire main branch is forward-conducted, and the DC power supply VDC1 supplies power to the inverter circuit through the main branch. The inverter circuit converts the DC input current into AC current and outputs the AC current.

[0058] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, after the DC switch is turned on, the first slow-start component P10 and the second slow-start component P20 are used to perform DC slow-start. When the first DC input branch serves as the main branch, after slow-start, the controller controls the first fast forward conducting positive component P11 and the first fast forward conducting negative component N11 to be turned on through the driving circuit, and the DC power supply VDC1 supplies power to the inverter circuit through the first DC input branch.

[0059] In this embodiment, before the inverter power supply is ready to start, the internal DC bus voltage is close to 0. After the inverter power supply is ready to start, the voltage of the DC bus will start to rise from zero. Instantaneous fluctuations will occur in the process, and the fluctuations may cause instantaneous large currents. The DC input current can be limited to a safe range through the slow-start component and will not cause damage to the entire circuit. After the voltage of the DC bus reaches a predetermined range (that is, it remains near the steady-state value), power is supplied to the inverter circuit. When the voltage of the DC bus does not rise to the predetermined DC input voltage, the fast forward conducting positive component, the fast reverse conducting positive component, the fast forward conducting negative component and the fast reverse conducting negative component in the two DC input branches are all in the off state.

[0060] Step 3: Use the controller to monitor the main branch input terminal voltage, bus voltage and the status of the DC switch SD1 in real time. When the monitoring result meets the preset conditions, switch the DC input branch. When the monitoring result does not meet the preset conditions, continue to use the main branch for power supply. The preset conditions are: the bus voltage is lower than the first threshold or the DC input voltage (i.e., the voltage value of the DC input branch input terminal) is lower than the second threshold or the DC switch is open.

[0061] Voltage sampling components are provided between the positive and negative poles of the DC input branch input terminal and between the positive and negative poles of the DC bus. The controller monitors the main branch input terminal voltage and the bus DC line voltage in real time through the voltage sampling components. At the same time, the controller is also connected to the DC switch SD1 and can monitor the status of the DC switch SD1 in real time. When at least one of the following conditions is met: the bus voltage is lower than a preset first threshold, the DC input voltage is lower than a preset second threshold, or the DC switch is opened, it is determined that the DC input of the current inverter power supply is in an abnormal state and it is necessary to switch the DC input branch. Specifically, the controller quickly turns on the fast forward conducting positive component and the fast forward conducting negative component in another DC input branch through the driving circuit, and uses the other DC input branch to power the inverter circuit. This switching process can ensure that the AC voltage output by the inverter power supply remains unchanged. When all the conditions of the bus voltage being lower than the preset first threshold, the DC input voltage being lower than the preset second threshold, or the DC switch being opened are not met, it is determined that the DC input of the current inverter power supply is in a normal working state, there is no need to switch the DC input branch, and the main branch continues to be used to power the inverter circuit.

[0062] In this embodiment, during normal operation of the inverter power supply, its internal controller will quickly determine whether the DC input is abnormal based on multiple conditions. If any of the following conditions is true, the DC input is determined to be abnormal: 1) the DC bus voltage is lower than a first threshold (the first threshold is the preset normal bus voltage value); 2) the DC input voltage is lower than a first threshold (the first threshold is the preset normal voltage value at the input end of the DC input branch); 3) the DC input switch SD1 is abnormally tripped (i.e., the power is cut off). The use of the above multiple conditions in this embodiment can speed up detection, reduce judgment and branch switching time, and perform branch switching before the DC bus voltage drops, thereby avoiding power supply instability caused by bus voltage drops. This reduces the DC current caused by the voltage difference during the switching process (the DC current caused by the voltage difference can cause current fluctuations in the inverter power supply circuit, affecting the normal operation of the components in the circuit, and also increasing energy loss, affecting the operating stability of the inverter power supply), thereby increasing the power supply stability of the inverter power supply.

[0063] Step 4: Determine whether to reverse conduct the DC input branch based on the bus voltage. When the bus voltage does not exceed the preset overvoltage limit, continue to forward conduct the current DC input branch. When the bus voltage exceeds the overvoltage limit, control the controller to turn on the fast reverse conduction positive component and the fast reverse conduction negative component in the current DC input branch, so that the current DC input branch is reversely conducted, and the active current is fed back to the DC input terminal of the current inverter power supply, and then execute step 4.

[0064] An overvoltage limit is preset so that the overvoltage limit is less than the maximum operating voltage of all devices inside the inverter power supply. The controller monitors the bus DC line voltage in real time through the voltage sampling component. When the bus voltage does not exceed the preset overvoltage limit, it is determined that the bus voltage does not increase abnormally, and the current DC input branch continues to be forward-conducted, that is, the fast forward-conducting positive component and the fast forward-conducting negative component in the current DC input branch are kept in the on state. When it is monitored that the bus voltage exceeds the overvoltage limit, it is determined that the bus voltage has increased abnormally, and the controller turns on the fast reverse-conducting positive component and the fast reverse-conducting negative component in the current DC input branch through the drive circuit, and at the same time turns off the fast forward-conducting positive component and the fast forward-conducting negative component. Since the bus voltage is high, the active current at the DC bus can be fed back to the DC input terminal of the current inverter power supply, so that the DC bus voltage drops to a range that does not exceed the overvoltage limit (that is, the DC bus voltage returns to normal).

[0065] Step 5: Continue to monitor the bus voltage. When the bus voltage is less than the predetermined voltage threshold in the reverse conduction state, conduct the current DC input branch forward again. When the bus voltage is still greater than or equal to the predetermined voltage threshold in the reverse conduction state, turn on the DC bus tie switch SD0 to feed active current back to the DC input terminals of all parallel inverter power supplies.

[0066] After the current DC input branch is reversed, the controller continues to monitor the bus DC line voltage in real time through the sampling component. When the bus voltage is less than the predetermined voltage threshold in the reverse conduction state, the controller turns on the fast forward conduction positive component and the fast forward conduction negative component in the current DC input branch through the driving circuit, and at the same time turns off the fast reverse conduction positive component and the fast reverse conduction negative component, so that the current DC input branch is forward-conducted and the DC power supply continues to supply power to the inverter circuit. When the bus voltage is still greater than or equal to the predetermined voltage threshold in the reverse conduction state, the controller turns on the DC bus tie switch SD0, and feeds back the active current to the DC input terminals of all parallel inverter power supplies, so that the DC bus voltage drops to a range not exceeding the overvoltage limit.

[0067] In this embodiment, when there are three situations during the entire power supply process, namely, multiple inverter power supplies are connected in parallel, the inverter power supply is directly connected in parallel with the shore power grid, or the output end of the inverter power supply has a back-electromotive force load, the DC bus in the inverter power supply is prone to abnormal voltage increase. The abnormal increase in the DC bus voltage will cause the DC overvoltage protection to shut down, which is not conducive to the operation of the inverter power supply. By monitoring the bus DC line voltage in real time in the above steps 4 to 5, and when the bus voltage abnormally rises and exceeds the preset overvoltage limit, the active current at the DC bus is fed back to the DC input end in a timely manner through the reverse conduction branch and closing the DC bus switch, the DC bus voltage can be restored to normal, avoiding protection shutdown due to DC overvoltage, so that the inverter power supply can operate stably without interruption due to DC overvoltage.

[0068] The control method of the present invention introduces a voltage difference protection judgment, sets the voltage thresholds of the DC input terminal and the DC bus, and when it is monitored that the DC input voltage and the DC bus voltage are lower than the corresponding thresholds, or the DC input switch is opened, the DC input is switched to the DC in time, avoiding the impact caused by the bus voltage drop. At the same time, it also effectively reduces the instantaneous charging current caused by switching when the voltage difference is large, ensuring the smooth operation of the inverter power switching process. Compared with the control method in the prior art that switches according to the single condition of voltage size, the control method of the present invention detects abnormalities and the entire process of switching occurs before the branch voltage drops significantly, which can effectively reduce the impact of the voltage difference. The use time is within 10ms. The switching time in the prior art is between tens to hundreds of milliseconds. Compared with the prior art, the control method of the present invention is faster and safer, and improves the reliability of the operation of the DC input high-power power conversion device.

[0070] The units in the device of the present application can be combined, divided and deleted according to actual needs.
