Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example

[0019] See also Figures 1-4 , the present invention provides the following technical solutions: A fully digital AC voltage regulating device 8 can provide a controllable excitation current for the motor rotor. The fully digital AC voltage regulating device 8 includes converters 4 and 5 connected in parallel with main circuit power supplies 1 and 2, and a main control board 6. Converters 4 and 5 are used to convert the input three-phase AC voltage into controllable three-phase AC voltage and current, which can realize the regulation and control of the motor excitation current. The fully digital AC voltage regulating device is provided with an Ethernet communication module 9, which is used to communicate with digital equipment.

[0020] In this embodiment, the motor excitation current is adjusted by three pairs of anti-parallel controllable voltage regulators using rotor phase angle control. During this process, the motor excitation output power frequency does not change and is the same as the relevant power supply frequency.

[0021] Converters 4 and 5 are responsible for regulating and controlling the motor's excitation current to ensure optimal motor operation. They convert the input standard three-phase AC voltage into variable three-phase voltage and current that can be adjusted as needed to accommodate load requirements under different operating conditions. The main control board 6, serving as the system's core control unit, manages the entire device's operational processes, including starting, stopping, and fault detection.

[0022] The motor's excitation current is regulated by controlling the rotor phase angle, achieving fine adjustment using three pairs of anti-parallel controllable voltage regulators.

This allows for precise control of motor performance and improved energy efficiency in large-scale machinery in industries such as metallurgy, petrochemicals, and papermaking. By employing advanced control strategies and techniques, this device not only significantly improves system response speed and stability, but also effectively reduces energy consumption and extends equipment life.

[0023] For details, please refer to Figures 1-4Inverters 4 and 5 adjust the AC voltage by changing the triggering sequence and conduction angle of the thyristors. The change in the triggering sequence is dynamically calculated and adjusted in real time by a software algorithm. The control of the thyristor AC voltage regulator is achieved by the thyristor gate circuit trigger unit. Through the line-synchronized trigger pulse, the control electronic unit is separated from the main power circuit by the trigger unit.

[0024] In this embodiment, converters 4 and 5 regulate the AC voltage by changing the triggering sequence and conduction angle of the thyristors (SCRs). Adjusting the timing of the SCR conduction within each cycle controls the output voltage amplitude. The triggering sequence is dynamically calculated and adjusted in real time by a software algorithm. The SCRs are controlled by a trigger unit in the SCR gate circuit.

The Ethernet communication module 9 is equipped with a four-port Ethernet interface. These four ports all support a data transmission rate of 10 / 100Mbps and can be connected to a subnet, so that the voltage regulating device has complete Ethernet communication functions. The four ports not only support connections with other PROFINET devices, but also can build complex network topologies, such as ring or star networks, which improves the flexibility of the system. The Ethernet communication module 9 supports real-time communication (IRT) mode, which ensures low latency and high reliability of signal processing in industrial environments. High reliability requirements, in addition, it also supports isochronous real-time communication, and can achieve accurate time synchronization in the network, which is especially important for application scenarios that require highly coordinated control.

[0032] See also Figures 1-4 , the present invention provides the following technical solutions: A fully digital AC voltage regulating device 8 can provide controllable voltage and current for a slip-ring motor. The fully digital AC voltage regulating device 8 includes converters 4 and 5 connected in parallel with main circuit power supplies 1 and 2, and a main control board 6. Converters 4 and 5 are used to convert the input three-phase AC voltage into controllable three-phase AC voltage and current, which are used for speed regulation of a three-phase winding gear lifting motor with a slip-ring rotor. The fully digital AC voltage regulating device 8 is provided with an Ethernet communication module 9, which is used to communicate with digital equipment.

[0033] In applications for speed control of AC motors with extremely slippery windings, two additional thyristor modules in the parallel branch of the controllable current section drive torque conversion, thereby driving four-quadrant operation of the converter 4Q. During the automatic commutation phase, the phase sequence on the outputs of converters 4 and 5 is electrically reversed. Depending on the load conditions, converters 4 and 5 function in reverse braking mode, a very powerful yet extremely gentle drive cycle, eliminating the need for conventional stator reversing contactors. For details, please refer to Figures 1-4 Inverters 4 and 5 can achieve four-quadrant operation and have automatic commutation function, which can realize reverse braking and driving functions under different load conditions. During the automatic commutation stage, the phase sequence on the output of inverters 4 and 5 is electrically reversed. Depending on the load conditions, the function of the inverter can be switched between reverse braking mode and driving mode. The circuit design to realize this function includes two additional thyristor modules in the parallel branch to promote torque conversion.

[0034] In this embodiment, four-quadrant operation refers to the ability of converters 4 and 5 to operate in four operating modes: forward motoring (driving), forward power generation (regenerative braking), reverse motoring (reverse driving), and reverse power generation (reverse regenerative braking). These modes cover all motor operating states under varying load conditions. Converters 4 and 5 utilize advanced power electronics technology and control algorithms to achieve four-quadrant operation under varying load conditions. During the automatic commutation phase, the phase sequence at the outputs of converters 4 and 5 is electrically reversed, allowing converters 4 and 5 to switch between reverse braking mode and drive mode. In reverse braking mode, converters 4 and 5 generate reverse torque by altering the phase sequence, achieving rapid braking. In drive mode, converters 4 and 5 provide forward torque, enabling normal motor operation. Converters 4 and 5 incorporate two additional thyristor modules in the parallel branches. These two modules work together in different operating modes, precisely controlling the on and off states of the thyristors to achieve smooth torque conversion. The control logic is implemented by software algorithms on the main control board. These algorithms dynamically adjust the thyristor triggering and phase sequence based on real-time monitoring of load conditions and system status, ensuring that converters 4 and 5 always operate optimally. Converters 4 and 5 significantly improve the system's response speed and dynamic performance, reducing mechanical shock and energy loss. Advanced circuit design and control algorithms enable four-quadrant operation and automatic commutation. This design not only enhances system flexibility but also dynamically adjusts operating modes based on load conditions, ensuring efficient and stable motor operation under various operating conditions.

[0035] For details, please refer to Figures 1-4 The fully digital AC voltage regulator 8 can also use stator phase angle control to achieve a high level of control power and improve speed regulation performance. Stator phase angle control achieves precise speed and torque control by adjusting the phase angle of the motor. The control method improves the response speed and stability of the system and is suitable for high-precision control applications.

[0036] In this embodiment, stator phase angle control achieves precise control of the motor's speed and torque by adjusting the phase angle of the motor's stator windings. The primary goal of stator phase angle control is to achieve precise speed and torque control, improving the system's responsiveness and stability. The system uses sensors to monitor the motor's operating status in real time, including parameters such as speed, torque, and current. This data is transmitted to the main control board 6 for real-time adjustment of the stator phase angle. The main control board 6 dynamically adjusts the stator phase angle based on the real-time monitoring data and a pre-set control algorithm. These algorithms typically include PID control and fuzzy control to ensure optimal system performance under various operating conditions. Precise adjustment of the stator phase angle enables precise control of even small speed changes, improving the system's speed regulation accuracy and responsiveness. Furthermore, stator phase angle control effectively suppresses torque fluctuations and improves system stability. Stator phase angle control works in conjunction with converters 4 and 5 to achieve precise control of the motor. The voltage regulator is responsible for regulating the AC voltage, while the stator phase angle control adjusts the phase angle. Combining these two functions enables more efficient energy conversion and more precise control. Dynamically adjusting the output voltage and current based on changes in the stator phase angle ensures stable motor operation under various operating conditions. Adjusting the stator phase angle enables precise control of the motor's speed and torque, improving system response speed. This is particularly useful in industries such as metallurgy, petrochemicals, and papermaking, where motors are often used to drive large machinery. The AC voltage regulator achieves smooth speed and torque control for AC motors with slip-coated windings by precisely regulating the generator speed and varying the triggering sequence of the thyristors and the stator phase angle. Converters 4 and 5 support four-quadrant operation, enabling both reverse braking and drive functions under varying load conditions. This ensures stable motor performance during forward and reverse rotation, as well as acceleration and deceleration. During the automatic commutation phase, the phase sequence at the converter output is electrically reversed. Depending on the load, the converter can switch between reverse braking mode and drive mode, ensuring efficient motor operation under various operating conditions.
