[0050] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. 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 creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0051] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0052] Figure 1 A flow chart of a contactor contact adhesion detection method provided in an embodiment of the present invention is applicable to high-voltage contactor contact adhesion situations. The method can be executed by a contactor contact adhesion detection device, which can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the detection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0054] S110 , controlling the contactor to be turned on to obtain a first temperature of the heater.

[0055] Specifically, in some electric defrosting and electric heating products, high-voltage DC contactors are used. High-voltage DC contactors are mainly used to control the power on and off of high-voltage PTC heaters. After the high-voltage DC contactor is turned on, when current flows through the PTC heating element, the high-voltage PTC heater will generate a certain amount of heat. At this time, it is necessary to obtain the first temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater. Among them, the first temperature refers to the temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater when it is working after the high-voltage contactor is turned on.

[0056] S120, controlling the contactor to disconnect, and obtaining the current second temperature of the heater.

[0057] Specifically, in electric heating and electric defrosting products, the heating state is usually not always maintained. After the high-voltage PTC heater has heated for a period of time, the heating will stop. By controlling the high-voltage DC contactor to disconnect, the high-voltage PTC heater is powered off, and the second temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater at this time is obtained. The second temperature is the temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater when the high-voltage DC contactor is disconnected, that is, the stop heating temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater.

[0058] S130: After the contactor is disconnected, the fan for cooling the heater is controlled to run for a first preset time, and a third temperature of the heater when the fan stops running is obtained.

[0059] Specifically, after the high-voltage DC contactor is disconnected, the high-voltage PTC heater is powered off and stops heating, and the fan starts working, and the fan is controlled to work for the first preset time. The main function of the fan is to purge and cool the high-voltage PTC heater. The fan stops working after running for the first preset time, and the third temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater at this time is obtained. Among them, the first preset time can be set according to actual conditions, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited here. The third temperature is the temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater when the fan stops working, that is, the purging completion temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater. Exemplarily, the first preset time can be 50 seconds.

[0060] S140: After the fan runs for a first preset time, control the heater to stand for a second preset time, and obtain a fourth temperature of the heater after the heater stands still.

[0061] Specifically, after the fan purges and cools down the high-voltage PTC heater, the high-voltage PTC heater is controlled to stand still for a second preset time. Controlling the high-voltage PTC heater to stand still means that neither the high-voltage PTC heater nor the fan is running, and the high-voltage PTC heater is cooled down naturally. After the high-voltage PTC heater ends standing still, the fourth temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater is obtained. Among them, the second preset time can be set according to actual conditions, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited here. The third temperature is the temperature at the end of the high-voltage PTC heater standing still, that is, the end temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater standing still. Exemplarily, the second preset time can be 20 seconds.

[0062] S150: Determine whether the contactor contacts are stuck according to the difference between the second temperature, the third temperature, and the fourth temperature.

[0063] Specifically, after obtaining the second temperature, the third temperature and the fourth temperature of the high-voltage DC contactor, it is determined whether the contacts of the high-voltage PTC heater are sticking by the difference between the second temperature, the third temperature and the fourth temperature. The temperature difference of the high-voltage PTC heater under different states can reflect the state of the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor. Therefore, it is possible to judge whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are sticking based on the obtained second temperature, the third temperature and the fourth temperature. The implementation of the present invention can accurately judge whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are sticking by the temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater. The detection method is simple and effectively reduces the cost.

[0064] The contactor contact adhesion detection method provided in the embodiment of the present invention first obtains the second temperature when the high-voltage PTC heater stops heating, the third temperature when the fan finishes blowing the high-voltage PTC heater, and the fourth temperature when the high-voltage PTC heater ends standing. Then, the degree of difference between the second temperature, the third temperature, and the fourth temperature is used to determine whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are adhered. The detection method of the embodiment of the present invention does not require additional auxiliary detection contacts. It only needs to compare the temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater under different states to determine whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are adhered. The detection method is simple, accurate, and low-cost, thereby effectively protecting the high-voltage DC contactor and the high-voltage PTC heater and reducing losses.

[0065] Optional, Figure 2 A flow chart of another contactor contact adhesion detection method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 , the detection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0066] S210 , controlling the contactor to be turned on, and obtaining a first temperature of the heater.

[0067] S220, controlling the contactor to disconnect, and obtaining the current second temperature of the heater.

[0068] S230: After the contactor is disconnected, the fan for cooling the heater is controlled to run for a first preset time, and a third temperature of the heater when the fan stops running is obtained.

[0069] S240: After the fan runs for a first preset time, control the heater to stand for a second preset time, and obtain a fourth temperature of the heater after the heater stands still.

[0070] S250: If the third temperature is higher than the second temperature, or the difference between the third temperature and the second temperature is lower than the first threshold, determine whether the contactor contacts are stuck according to the third temperature and the fourth temperature.

[0071] Specifically, after obtaining the second temperature, the third temperature and the fourth temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater, the difference between the second temperature, the third temperature and the fourth temperature is used to determine whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are sticking. If the third temperature is higher than the second temperature, or the difference between the third temperature and the second temperature is lower than the first threshold, it is still not possible to determine whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are sticking, and it is also necessary to determine whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are sticking based on the third temperature and the fourth temperature. If the purge completion temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater is higher than the stop heating temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater when the fan stops working, or the temperature difference between the two is lower than the first threshold, it is also necessary to determine whether the high-voltage DC contactor is sticking based on the stop heating temperature and the end standing temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater when it stops standing. Among them, the first threshold can be set according to the actual situation, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited here.

[0072] Optional, Figure 3 A flow chart of another contactor contact adhesion detection method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 , the detection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0073] S310, controlling the contactor to be turned on to obtain a first temperature of the heater.

[0074] S320, control the contactor to disconnect and obtain the current second temperature of the heater.

[0075] S330: After the contactor is disconnected, the fan for cooling the heater is controlled to run for a first preset time, and a third temperature of the heater when the fan stops running is obtained.

[0076] S340: After the fan runs for a first preset time, control the heater to stand for a second preset time, and obtain a fourth temperature of the heater after the heater stands still.

[0077] S350: If the third temperature is lower than the second temperature, and the difference between the third temperature and the second temperature is higher than or equal to the first threshold, determine that the contactor contacts are not stuck.

[0078] Specifically, after obtaining the second temperature, the third temperature and the fourth temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater, the difference between the second temperature, the third temperature and the fourth temperature is used to determine whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are adhered. If the third temperature is lower than the second temperature, and the difference between the third temperature and the second temperature is higher than or equal to the first threshold, it is determined that the contacts on the high-voltage DC contactor side are not adhered. The third temperature is lower than the second temperature, and the difference between the third temperature and the second temperature is higher than or equal to the first threshold, indicating that the third temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater is much lower than the second temperature under the purging and cooling of the fan, that is, the purging completion temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater is much lower than the stop heating temperature. The high-voltage PTC heater has completed the cooling under the purging of the fan, and the reduced temperature meets the requirements. It indicates that the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are not adhered, and when the high-voltage DC contactor is controlled to be disconnected, the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are directly disconnected, and the high-voltage PTC heater stops heating.

[0079] Optional, Figure 4 A flow chart of another contactor contact adhesion detection method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 , the detection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0080] S410, controlling the contactor to be turned on to obtain a first temperature of the heater.

[0081] S420, control the contactor to disconnect, and obtain the current second temperature of the heater.

[0082] S430: After the contactor is disconnected, the fan for cooling the heater is controlled to run for a first preset time, and a third temperature of the heater when the fan stops running is obtained.

[0083] S440: After the fan runs for a first preset time, control the heater to stand for a second preset time, and obtain a fourth temperature of the heater after the heater stands still.

[0084] S450: If the third temperature is higher than the second temperature, or the difference between the third temperature and the second temperature is lower than the first threshold, determine whether the contactor contacts are stuck according to the third temperature and the fourth temperature.

[0085] S460: If the fourth temperature is lower than the third temperature, and the difference between the fourth temperature and the third temperature is higher than or equal to the second threshold, determine that the contactor contacts are not stuck.

[0086] Specifically, when the third temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater is higher than the second temperature, or the difference between the third temperature and the second temperature is lower than the first threshold, it is still not possible to determine whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are adhered, and it is necessary to further determine whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are adhered by the relationship between the third temperature and the fourth temperature. If the fourth temperature is lower than the third temperature, and the difference between the fourth temperature and the third temperature is higher than or equal to the second threshold, it is determined that the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are not adhered. The fourth temperature is the end-of-stationary temperature after the high-voltage PTC heater is left to stand for the second preset time. If the end-of-stationary temperature is lower than the purge completion temperature, and the difference between the two temperatures is higher than or equal to the second threshold. It indicates that the temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater has dropped to a reasonable temperature during the standing process, the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor have been in a disconnected state, and the high-voltage PTC heater has not been heated. It can be determined that when the high-voltage DC contactor is controlled to be disconnected, the contacts are directly disconnected and not adhered together. Among them, the second threshold can be set according to actual conditions, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited here.

[0087] S470: If the fourth temperature is higher than the third temperature, or the difference between the fourth temperature and the third temperature is lower than the second threshold, determine that the contactor contacts are stuck.

[0088] Specifically, when the third temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater is higher than the second temperature, or the difference between the third temperature and the second temperature is lower than the first threshold, it is necessary to further determine whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are adhered by the relationship between the third temperature and the fourth temperature. If the fourth temperature is higher than the third temperature, or the difference between the fourth temperature and the third temperature is lower than the second threshold, it is determined that the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are adhered together. The fourth temperature is also the end-of-stationary temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater. The end-of-stationary temperature is higher than the purge completion temperature, or the difference between the end-of-stationary temperature and the purge completion temperature is lower than the second threshold. The temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater does not decrease but increases during the standing process, or the temperature decreases in the standing process is not obvious and does not meet the requirements. It can be concluded that the high-voltage PTC heater is still heating during the standing process, and the high-voltage DC contactor is not completely disconnected due to contact adhesion when it is disconnected, resulting in the high-voltage PTC heater being in a heating state all the time. The embodiment of the present invention obtains temperature information of the high-voltage PTC heater under different states, and determines whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are stuck based on the temperature information. The judgment method is simple, does not require complicated detection steps, and can accurately judge whether the contacts of the high-voltage DC contactor are stuck without adding auxiliary contacts.

[0089] Optional, Figure 5 A flow chart of another contactor contact adhesion detection method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5, the detection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0090] S510, controlling the contactor to be turned on to obtain a first temperature of the heater.

[0091] S520: Obtain the starting temperature, ambient temperature and heating time of the heater.

[0092] Specifically, when heating the high-voltage PTC heater, it is also necessary to obtain the starting temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater and the ambient temperature at that time. It is also necessary to obtain the heating time of the high-voltage PTC heater after the high-voltage DC contactor is powered on. Among them, the starting temperature is the temperature before the high-voltage PTC heater starts heating, the ambient temperature is the temperature of the environment where the high-voltage PTC heater is located at that time, and the heating time refers to the heating time of the high-voltage PTC heater.

[0093] S530: Determine the theoretical temperature of the heater according to the starting temperature, the ambient temperature and the heating time.

[0094] Specifically, after obtaining the starting temperature, ambient temperature and heating time of the high-voltage PTC heater, the theoretical temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater can be determined according to the starting temperature, ambient temperature and heating time. The theoretical temperature refers to the temperature that the high-voltage PTC heater should reach under certain conditions. The temperature that the high-voltage PTC heater should reach is determined by obtaining the starting temperature, ambient temperature and heating time, that is, the theoretical temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater.

[0095] S540: Determine whether the temperature sensor is abnormal according to the first temperature and the theoretical temperature.

[0096] Specifically, after the theoretical temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater is determined according to the starting temperature, the ambient temperature and the heating time, whether the temperature sensor is abnormal is determined according to the difference between the theoretical temperature and the first temperature. The first temperature is the temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater measured by the temperature sensor at this time. If the difference between the first temperature and the actual temperature is large, it means that the temperature measured by the temperature sensor is inaccurate, and it can be determined that the temperature sensor is abnormal.

[0097] S550: If the difference between the first temperature and the theoretical temperature is not within a preset range, it is determined that the temperature sensor is abnormal.

[0098] Specifically, if the difference between the first temperature and the theoretical temperature is not within the preset range, it means that the temperature measured by the temperature sensor is inaccurate, and it can be determined that the temperature sensor is abnormal at this time. Among them, the preset range can be set according to the actual situation, and the embodiment of the present application is not specifically limited here. The first temperature and the theoretical temperature are not within the preset range, which means that the difference between the first temperature displayed by the temperature sensor and the theoretical temperature is too large, indicating that the temperature measured by the temperature sensor is inaccurate, and it can be determined that the temperature sensor is abnormal at this time. At this time, the high-voltage DC contactor is disconnected after the fan is controlled to run for a certain period of time. The certain time can be set according to the actual situation, and illustratively, it can be 50 seconds.

[0099] S560: If the difference between the first temperature and the theoretical temperature is within a preset range, it is determined that the temperature sensor is normal.

[0100] Specifically, if the difference between the first temperature and the theoretical temperature is within a preset range, it means that the temperature measured by the temperature sensor is not much different from the theoretical temperature of the high-voltage PTC heater, and the temperature sensor is in a normal state. At this time, it is possible to detect whether the high-voltage DC contactor contacts are sticking. The embodiment of the present invention first detects whether the temperature sensor is abnormal before detecting whether the high-voltage DC contactor contacts are sticking, thereby eliminating other factors that affect the detection results and making the detection results more accurate.

[0101] Optional, Figure 6 A flow chart of another contactor contact adhesion detection method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 , the detection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0102] S610 , controlling the contactor to be turned on to obtain a first temperature of the heater.

[0103] S620, control the contactor to disconnect, and obtain the current second temperature of the heater.

[0104] S630: After the contactor is disconnected, the fan for cooling the heater is controlled to run for a first preset time, and a third temperature of the heater when the fan stops running is obtained.

[0105] S640: After the fan runs for a first preset time, control the heater to stand for a second preset time, and obtain a fourth temperature of the heater after the heater stands still.

[0106] S650: Determine whether the contactor contacts are stuck according to the difference between the second temperature, the third temperature, and the fourth temperature.

[0107] S660: If the contactor contacts are stuck, a fault alarm will be issued and the fan will be turned on to cool the heater.

[0108] Specifically, after the contact of the high-voltage DC contactor is detected to be stuck, a fault alarm is immediately issued to notify the relevant department to handle it, and the fan is turned on to cool down the high-voltage PTC heater. After the contact of the high-voltage DC contactor is detected to be stuck, it is equivalent to the contact of the high-voltage DC contactor being unable to disconnect, and the high-voltage PTC heater is always in a heating state, and the temperature will continue to rise. An alarm is issued in time and the fan is turned on to cool down the high-voltage PTC heater to avoid damage to other components and reduce losses.
