TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of elevator equipment, and in particular to an elevator safety gear driving circuit, method, driver and system. BACKGROUND
[0002] The safety gear is a safety protection device of the elevator, which can stop the elevator car and clamp it on the track in case of breakage and slack of the suspension rope when the running speed of the elevator exceeds the limit speed set by the elevator speed limiter. That is, the safety gear, as an emergency braking device of the elevator, can respond quickly when the elevator is abnormal or dangerous, lock the guide rail, and make the elevator instantaneously stop at a safe position. Therefore, the safety gear provides effective protection for the safe operation of the elevator.
[0003] The traditional elevator safety protection device is a speed limiter + safety gear, which is a semi-automatic device. The use of the speed limiter and the safety gear together can provide passive protection for the elevator, but the device occupies a large space. The electronic safety gear overcomes the shortcomings of the traditional elevator safety protection device and has been widely used. Usually, the electronic safety gear needs to be used with a driver. When the driver receives a signal triggering the action of the safety gear, the driver controls the action of the safety gear.
[0004] When the electronic components inside the driver fail, the safety gear cannot act, resulting in failure of the safety gear function. In case of abnormal operation of the elevator or danger, if the driver fails and the safety gear function fails, the elevator cannot be braked, which will have unpredictable consequences. Therefore, how to timely detect the failure of the safety gear and how to improve the effective braking of the electronic safety gear when the driver fails are important problems to be solved.

For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0061] In order to improve the effective braking of the electronic safety clamp when the drive fails, see Figure 1 , Figure 1 The drive circuit 1000 of the elevator safety clamp provided in the present application, as shown in Figure 1 , the circuit 1000 includes: power supply circuit 100, detection and diagnosis circuit 200, first sampling circuit 300, second sampling circuit 400, drive control circuit 500 and overcurrent detection circuit 600, wherein the drive control circuit 500 includes drive signal generation circuit 501, high-side switch 502 and low-side switch 503.
[0062] The power supply circuit 100 is electrically connected with the first sampling circuit 300, the detection diagnosis circuit 200 is electrically connected with the first sampling circuit 300, the second sampling circuit 400, the drive control circuit 500 and the overcurrent detection circuit 600 respectively, the overcurrent detection circuit 600 is electrically connected with the drive signal generation circuit 501, the output end of the drive signal generation circuit 501 is electrically connected with the control end of the high-side switch 502 and the control end of the low-side switch 503 respectively, the first end of the high-side switch 502 is electrically connected with the positive pole of the first working voltage 9VB, the second end of the high-side switch 502 is electrically connected with the positive pole of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear, the first end of the low-side switch 503 is electrically connected with the negative pole of the first working voltage 9VB, and the second end of the low-side switch 503 is electrically connected with the negative pole of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear.
[0063] The power supply circuit 100 is used for accessing a power supply voltage and converting the power supply voltage to output a first working voltage 9VB.
[0064] The first sampling circuit 300 is used for collecting the power supply voltage and the first working voltage 9VB to obtain a power supply sampling signal.
[0065] The second sampling circuit 400 is used for collecting the voltage between the positive pole and the negative pole of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear to obtain a loop voltage signal.
[0066] The overcurrent detection circuit 600 is used for monitoring the current of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear, and obtaining a loop overcurrent signal when the current of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear is greater than a preset current threshold.
[0067] The detection diagnosis circuit 200 is used for outputting a PWM diagnosis signal to the drive control circuit 500 at a timing, and is also used for outputting a fault signal according to the power supply sampling signal, the loop voltage signal and the loop overcurrent signal.
[0068] The drive signal generation circuit 501 is used for receiving and outputting a drive signal according to a trigger signal, a loop overcurrent signal and a PWM diagnosis signal, so that the high-side switch 502 and the low-side switch 503 control their own switching states based on the drive signal.
[0069] The elevator safety gear driving circuit in the application can be a circuit module or a circuit in a driver of an electronic safety gear, and the application does not make specific limitation thereon. In addition, the elevator safety gear in the application is an electronic safety gear, which needs to be driven by a driver, the electronic safety gear includes an electromagnet, and whether the positive pole and the negative pole of the electromagnet are electrified is controlled to control the electromagnet to be in an attraction state or a release state, so as to control the state of the safety gear, and further to achieve the purpose of controlling the running or braking of the elevator.
[0070] In one application scenario of the application, referring to Figure 1The elevator safety gear driving circuit can be electrically connected with an external circuit or device, and the external circuit or device provides the power supply (including the positive electrode of the power supply and the ground), the safety ground, the trigger signal, the positive electrode and the negative electrode interface of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear, and the fault port required by the elevator safety gear driving circuit.
[0071] Referring to Figure 1 In an example, the trigger signal can be provided by turning on or turning off the trigger switch, the control of the safety gear is realized by the driving control circuit, and the state of the elevator is controlled, for example, when the trigger switch is turned on, the electromagnet is attracted by the driving control circuit, the safety gear is released, and the elevator runs normally; when the trigger switch is turned off, the electromagnet is released by the driving control circuit, the safety gear is attracted, the elevator is braked, and the elevator car is clamped.
[0072] The power supply circuit converts the input power supply voltage to a first working voltage, and the first working voltage can be connected to the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the electromagnet to supply power to the electromagnet, so that the electromagnet is attracted, the safety gear is released, and the elevator runs normally. The power supply voltage can be 36VDC or 48VDC, and the first working voltage can be 9VDC.
[0073] The first sampling circuit monitors the power supply voltage and the first working voltage in real time, monitors the power supply by collecting the input voltage and the output voltage of the power supply circuit, obtains a power supply sampling signal, and sends the power supply sampling signal to the detection and diagnosis circuit, so that the detection and diagnosis circuit can monitor the key voltage (i.e. the input voltage and the output voltage of the power supply circuit) and handle it in time when the key voltage is too high or too low.
[0074] The second sampling circuit is electrically connected with the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear, collects the voltage between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the electromagnet, obtains a loop voltage signal, and sends the loop voltage signal to the detection and diagnosis circuit, so that the detection and diagnosis circuit can monitor the switch loop of the electromagnet (i.e. the loop formed by the electromagnet, the high-side switch and the low-side switch) and handle it in time when the switch loop of the electromagnet fails.
[0075] The overcurrent detection circuit monitors the current of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear. When the electromagnet has a large current or a short circuit, the current of the electromagnet will be greater than a preset current threshold, an overcurrent signal of the loop is output, and the overcurrent signal of the loop is sent to the detection and diagnosis circuit and the driving signal generation circuit, so that the detection and diagnosis circuit can monitor the electromagnet and handle it in time when the electromagnet has a short circuit; and the driving signal generation circuit controls the high-side switch and the low-side switch to turn off by outputting a driving signal when the electromagnet has a short circuit. The preset current threshold can be set by the user as needed.
[0076] The detection and diagnosis circuit outputs a PWM diagnosis signal to the drive control circuit in a timing manner, the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear is driven by the drive control circuit, and the voltage between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear changes after the detection and diagnosis circuit outputs the PWM diagnosis signal in a timing manner. The second sampling circuit is used for real-time monitoring and diagnosis of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear and the switching circuit thereof. The first sampling circuit is used for monitoring the key voltage (i.e. the input voltage and the output voltage of the power supply circuit), and the detection and diagnosis circuit judges whether the key voltage is abnormal. The overcurrent detection circuit is used for monitoring the current of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear, and the detection and diagnosis circuit judges whether the electromagnet is overcurrent. When the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear and the switching circuit thereof are faulty, the key voltage is abnormal, or the electromagnet is overcurrent, a fault signal is output, and the fault signal is reported to the elevator controller through the fault port. It can be understood that the detection and diagnosis circuit outputs the PWM diagnosis signal in a timing manner, which does not affect the normal work of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear.
[0077] The drive signal generation circuit outputs a drive signal according to the trigger signal, the loop overcurrent signal and the PWM diagnosis signal, so that the high-side switch and the low-side switch control their own switching states based on the drive signal. The high-side switch and the low-side switch receive the drive signal and control their own switching states according to the drive signal. For example, when the drive signal is high, the high-side switch and the low-side switch are in a conducting state, the electromagnet is attracted, the safety gear is released, and the elevator runs normally; when the drive signal is low, the high-side switch and the low-side switch are in an off state, the electromagnet is released, the safety gear is attracted, and the elevator is braked.
[0078] The high-side switch and the low-side switch designed in the application are redundantly designed, the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the first working voltage are electrically connected with the first end of the high-side switch and the first end of the low-side switch respectively, the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear are electrically connected with the second end of the high-side switch and the second end of the low-side switch respectively, and a current loop is formed by the high-side switch and the low-side switch. By designing two switches, when one of the switches is short-circuited and cannot drive the elevator safety gear to act, the other switch can still drive the elevator safety gear to act according to the drive signal, ensuring the braking effect of the elevator safety gear and providing double safety protection for the elevator.
[0079] In the embodiment of the present application, through the redundant design of the high-side switch and the low-side switch, when one of the switches has a short circuit fault, the other switch can still drive the elevator safety gear to act according to the driving signal, thereby improving the effective braking of the elevator safety gear. In addition, the PWM diagnosis signal is output by the detection and diagnosis circuit at a fixed time, and the condition of the key voltage, the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear and the switching loop thereof is monitored and diagnosed in real time based on the first sampling circuit, the second sampling circuit and the overcurrent detection circuit. When the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear and the switching loop thereof have a fault, the key voltage has an abnormality or the electromagnet has an overcurrent, a fault signal is output, and the fault signal is timely reported to the elevator controller, so that the fault can be timely found and processed.

In the case that the power supply input voltage of the external circuit is powered off, the power supply stored in the super capacitor circuit can continue to maintain the circuit working for a period of time, thereby avoiding the misoperation of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear due to the short-time power-off of the external circuit.

[0102] The second grid connection circuit merges and processes the first working voltage 9VB and the power supply voltage, obtains a drive voltage according to the principle of high-voltage priority output, and transmits the drive voltage to the positive electrode of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear, so as to drive the elevator safety gear.
[0103] The first end of the excitation switch accesses the power supply voltage, the second end of the excitation switch is electrically connected with the first input end of the second grid connection circuit, and can provide high voltage for the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear, so that the electromagnet is effectively attracted. The second control end of the excitation switch is electrically connected with the output end of the delay circuit, and the state of the excitation switch can be controlled through the delay signal output by the delay circuit.
[0104] The excitation switch only functions in the initial stage of attracting the electromagnet of the safety gear and then releasing the brake of the elevator car, specifically, in the initial working stage of the first power-on operation after the elevator is installed or when the elevator car needs to be released after being braked by the safety gear, after the driving signal generation circuit outputs the driving signal, the excitation switch, the high-side switch and the low-side switch are all turned on, and based on the principle of high-voltage priority output of the second grid-connected circuit, since the supply voltage is higher than the first working voltage, at this time, the second grid-connected circuit outputs the supply voltage, so that the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear is attracted, that is, the elevator safety gear normally works under the driving of the supply voltage; in order to save electric energy during normal operation of the elevator, it is necessary to start timing after the elevator normally operates, and output a delay signal after the preset delay time, through the delay signal, the supply voltage output by the excitation switch is turned off, at this time, the second grid-connected circuit outputs the first working voltage, and the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear continues to be attracted under the action of the first working voltage, and the elevator can still normally operate.
[0105] In a possible embodiment, the circuit 1000 further comprises a protection circuit 700.
[0106] An input end of the protection circuit 700 is used for accessing the power input voltage, and an output end of the protection circuit 700 is electrically connected with the input end of the power supply circuit 100.
[0107] The protection circuit 700 is configured to perform anti-reverse connection and anti-surge protection on the power input voltage, and output a supply voltage.
[0108] The power input voltage is accessed from an external circuit, and needs to be protected against reverse connection and surge before being input to the power supply circuit, in an example, the protection against reverse connection and surge can be performed by a diode and a TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) tube.
[0109] The embodiment of the application further provides an elevator safety gear driving method, and the method is as follows.
[0110] S1, monitoring the supply voltage and the first working voltage to obtain a power supply sampling signal.
[0111] S2, monitoring the voltage between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear to obtain a loop voltage signal.
[0112] S3, monitoring the current of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear, and obtaining a loop overcurrent signal when the current of the electromagnet of the elevator safety gear is greater than a preset current threshold.
[0113] S4, timing output of a PWM diagnosis signal.
[0114] S5, based on the power sampling signal, the circuit voltage signal and the circuit overcurrent signal, output a fault signal.
[0115] S6 receives and outputs a drive signal based on the trigger signal, the loop overcurrent signal, and the PWM diagnostic signal, so that the high-side switch and the low-side switch control their own switching states based on the drive signal.
[0116] In one possible embodiment, after performing step S6 above, the method further includes:
[0117] S7, obtain the delayed signal.
[0118] S8, according to the drive signal, outputs a power supply voltage to make the electromagnet of the elevator safety clamp engage.
[0119] S9, upon receiving the delayed signal, the power supply voltage is no longer output so that the electromagnet of the elevator safety clamp continues to engage under the control of the first working voltage.
[0120] This application also provides a driver, including the elevator safety gear drive circuit as described above. This driver is used in conjunction with the elevator safety gear to drive the elevator safety gear.
[0121] This application also provides an elevator safety clamp drive system, see [link]. Figure 1 ,like Figure 1 As shown, the system includes: a trigger switch, an elevator safety gear, an elevator controller, and the aforementioned driver; the driver is electrically connected to the trigger switch, the elevator safety gear, and the elevator controller, respectively.
[0122] Trigger switch, used to output trigger signal.
[0123] The elevator controller is used to receive fault signals.
[0124] The elevator controller can control the operation of the elevator. After receiving a fault signal, it processes the fault signal and makes a decision on whether to control the elevator to continue running based on the fault signal.
[0125] See Figure 1 This application provides an elevator safety clamp drive system. In one example, the system can be a test device for the drive, wherein the trigger switch, elevator safety clamp, and elevator controller are all external circuits. At the same time, the external circuits also provide the drive with power (i.e., power input voltage and power ground) and safety ground.
[0126] The test device for the driver can provide a trigger signal by triggering the state of the switch, so that the driving signal generation circuit outputs the driving signal. For example, when the trigger switch is turned on, the electromagnet is attracted by the driving signal, the safety clamp is released, and the elevator runs normally; when the trigger switch is turned off, the electromagnet is released by the driving signal, the safety clamp is attracted, the elevator is braked, and the elevator car is clamped.
[0127] The detection and diagnosis circuit outputs a fault signal when determining the fault of the elevator safety clamp, and transmits the fault signal to the elevator controller to determine the operation, fault prompt, etc. of the elevator through the elevator controller.
[0128] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2 A working flow chart of an elevator safety clamp driving system provided by the embodiment is shown in Figure 2 , and the working flow is as follows:
[0129] First, the power input voltage of the external circuit is connected, and the voltage is used to charge the super capacitor circuit until the charging is completed, obtaining all the voltages required inside the elevator safety clamp driving circuit.
[0130] Second, detect whether the trigger switch is turned on. When the trigger switch is turned off, the electromagnet is released by the driving signal, the safety clamp is attracted, the elevator is braked, and the elevator car is clamped. When the trigger switch is turned on, the driving signal generation circuit outputs the driving signal to the excitation switch, the high-side switch and the low-side switch, the electromagnet of the elevator safety clamp is attracted after receiving the supply voltage output by the excitation switch, at this time, the safety clamp is released, the elevator runs normally, before the delay time arrives, the electromagnet of the elevator safety clamp is attracted under the action of the supply voltage output by the excitation switch, the elevator runs normally; after the delay time arrives, the delay circuit outputs a delay signal, the supply voltage output by the excitation switch is turned off through the delay signal, at this time, the second grid-connected circuit outputs the first working voltage 9VB, the electromagnet of the elevator safety clamp continues to be attracted under the action of the first working voltage 9VB, and the elevator can still run normally.
[0131] Before the timing time is up, whether the trigger switch is turned on is detected, when the trigger switch is turned off, the electromagnet is released by using the driving signal, the safety clamp is attracted, the elevator is braked, the elevator car is clamped, when the trigger switch is turned on, the electromagnet of the elevator safety clamp continues to be attracted under the action of the first working voltage 9VB, and the elevator can still operate normally. After the timing time is up, the PWM diagnosis signal is output to the driving control circuit by the detection diagnosis circuit, the voltage between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the electromagnet is collected by the second sampling circuit, and whether the switch loop of the electromagnet (that is, the loop formed by the electromagnet, the high-side switch and the low-side switch) has a short circuit or an open circuit fault is judged by the detection diagnosis circuit; the key voltage (that is, the input voltage and the output voltage of the power supply circuit) is monitored by the first sampling circuit, and whether the key voltage is abnormal is judged by the detection diagnosis circuit; the current of the electromagnet of the elevator safety clamp is monitored by the overcurrent detection circuit, and whether the electromagnet has an overcurrent is judged by the detection diagnosis circuit, when any one of the above faults occurs, the detection diagnosis circuit outputs a fault signal, and reports the fault signal to the elevator controller, when the above faults do not occur, whether the trigger switch is turned on is continued to be detected. After the fault signal is reported to the elevator controller, whether the trigger switch is turned on is continued to be detected.
