[0032] Embodiment 1:

[0033] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 The three-phase AC voltage self-contained bypass type motor soft start intelligent control device provided by the present invention comprises a housing 1, a control box 2 arranged in the housing 1 and three sets of drive components 4, wherein the drive component 4 comprises a bypass switch 401, an incoming line row 402, an outgoing line row 403, a current transformer 404, a heat sink 405 and a thyristor 406, wherein the bypass switch 401 is a single-phase sealed structure, which is easy to install and does not produce arcing, making the entire device safer and more reliable. The current transformer 404 is arranged on the outgoing line row 403 for detecting current, the two terminals of the bypass switch 401 are electrically connected to the incoming line row 402 and the outgoing line row 403, the heat sink 405 is connected in parallel with the bypass switch 401, the thyristor 406 is connected in series in the heat sink 405, and the control box 2 is electrically connected to the bypass switch 401, the current transformer 404 and the thyristor 406. The present invention integrates the bypass switch 401 into the interior of the soft starter, so that the overall structure is compact, the space occupied and the production cost are saved, and the assembly and maintenance are more convenient.

[0034] During operation, the bypass switch 401 is first disconnected, so that the current passes through the heat sink 405 and the thyristor 406 from the incoming line row 402 in sequence, and finally reaches the outgoing line row 403. The thyristor 406 is used to gradually increase the current to avoid excessive starting current. When the motor is started, the bypass switch 401 connects the main line again, thereby completing the smooth start of the motor.

[0035] The heat sink 405 is connected in parallel with the bypass switch 401 through the connecting row 408. The connecting row 408, the bypass switch 401 and the incoming line row 402 (outgoing line row 403) are connected together. The current flowing in from the incoming line row 402 can flow from the branch of the bypass switch 401 or the branch of the connecting row 408 respectively.

[0036] The heat sink 405 includes an upper heat sink and a lower heat sink, and the thyristor 406 is connected in series between the upper heat sink and the lower heat sink, providing efficient heat dissipation for the thyristor 406 to prevent the circuit from overheating.

[0037] The incoming line rows 402 in the three drive components 4 are all arranged on insulating support rods 409, and the insulating support rods 409 are fixed to the housing 1 by bolts, so that the three drive components 4 can be firmly fixed to the housing 1 while having good insulation performance.

[0038] A mounting bracket 410 is also provided in the drive assembly 4, and the heat sink 405 is fixedly provided on the mounting bracket 410. An insulator 411 is provided at the bottom of the mounting bracket, and both the incoming line row 402 and the outgoing line row 403 extend to the outside of the housing 1 through the insulating sheath 412. The use of the insulator 411 and the insulating sheath 412 not only improves the insulation performance of the entire soft starter, but also greatly reduces the vibration amplitude of the device when it is started due to a large current, thereby reducing noise.

[0039] The three groups of drive components 4 are arranged side by side, and an insulating plate 5 is arranged on the outside of each group of drive components 4 to improve the insulation performance of each group of drive components 4. At the same time, the insulating plate 5 on the outside of each group of drive components 4 is used as an air duct, and a temperature sensor 413 and a temperature control fan 414 are also arranged in each group of drive components 4. When the temperature control fan 414 is started, it can provide heat dissipation for each group of drive components 4 separately, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation capacity of the device. The temperature sensor 413 and the temperature control fan 414 are both electrically connected to the control box 2, and the control box 2 controls the temperature control fan 414 through the signal of the temperature sensor 413, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the temperature control of the single group of drive components 4. When in use, the temperature control fan 414 does not start when the device is in standby mode. When the device is running, when the temperature of the radiator 405 is higher than 35 degrees, the fan starts, and when the temperature drops below 35 degrees, the fan stops. When the temperature of the radiator 405 is higher than 60 degrees, the device reports a high temperature fault, the device stops, and the fan stops. When the temperature reaches 85 degrees, the fan stops after running for another 10 minutes.

[0040] Embodiment 2:

[0041] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6, the difference between this embodiment 2 and embodiment 1 is that: multiple bypass switches 401 are set in parallel. The present invention adopts a method of connecting multiple bypass switches in parallel to expand the rated current, and its current carrying capacity gradually increases according to the number of bypass switches 401 connected in parallel. For example, in a motor soft starter with a three-phase AC voltage of 400V, the applicable range of a single sealed bypass switch is 45A-300A; the two-stage parallel sealed bypass switch is applicable to 390A, 480A and 580A; the three-stage parallel sealed bypass switch is applicable to 780A and 960A. The soft starter can use multiple small-capacity bypass switches to handle larger current loads, thereby saving costs and space, and meeting the current carrying requirements while ensuring the safe operation of the circuit. The current transformer 404 arranged on the outlet row 403 is used to detect the current to determine the working condition of the bypass switch 401.

[0042] All bypass switches 401 in each group of drive components 4 are arranged in parallel, and the two wiring terminals of all bypass switches 401 in each group are connected in parallel through two wiring blocks 407, and the two wiring blocks are fixedly connected to the incoming line block 402 and the outgoing line block 403 by bolts. The parallel arrangement can easily connect the wiring blocks to all bypass switches 401 to prevent loose wiring and virtual connection. This not only improves the connection efficiency, but also indirectly connects and fixes all bypass switches 401 together, thereby improving the structural strength of the soft starter.

[0043] Embodiment 3:

[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, a circuit control board 3 is arranged in the control box 2, and an insulating mounting plate 6 is arranged at the bottom of the circuit control board 3 to ensure the safety of the circuit control board 3. The present invention controls the normal operation of the entire device through the circuit control board 3.

[0045] Reference Figure 7, the circuit schematic diagram provided by the present invention, the bypass switch 401 of the present invention adopts a dual-coil control mode, and the characteristics of the dual-coil control mode are: the pull-in current is large and the holding current is small. The contactor often generates a large pull-in current at the moment of pull-in, especially multiple contactors used in parallel will generate a huge impact current at the moment of pull-in. The impact of this impact current on the power supply is large and may cause circuit instability. In order to meet the needs of large impact currents, the stability, dynamic response, and heavy-load regulation characteristics of the power supply are often required to be high. Ordinary power supplies cannot meet the requirements. The use of a larger power supply design will lead to complex design and high cost. Based on the difficulty of design and cost considerations, the present invention adopts a circuit control board 3 as a super-capacitor design. The super-capacitor has the characteristics of simple design, good stability, high impact resistance, low cost, etc. The super-capacitor is mainly composed of multiple supercapacitors in series, plus some balancing circuits and protection circuits, which can meet the requirements of multiple contactors working in parallel at the same time. At the same time, supercapacitors of different sizes and capacitances can be replaced according to the actual number of contactors used, so as to achieve the optimal configuration.

[0046] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
