[0032] Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the power unit structure according to the embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0033] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a high-frequency high-voltage inverter for a high-speed magnetic levitation fan, as Figure 1 shown, specifically including: a three-phase power grid input end, three single-phase AC power supplies, and a PWM regulation module;

[0035] The single-phase AC power supply consists of multiple pairs of phase-shifting transformers and power units; the input end of the primary winding of the phase-shifting transformer is connected to the three-phase power grid input end, and the output end of the secondary winding of the phase-shifting transformer is connected to the input end of the power unit, stepping down and phase-shifting the high-voltage three-phase power of the power grid and inputting it into the power unit; the output ends of the power units are connected in series in turn to obtain and output high-voltage single-phase alternating current;

[0036] The PWM control module receives the control signals from the main controller of the high-voltage permanent magnet synchronous motor, and controls the switching of the IGBTs in each power unit according to the frequency, amplitude, and phase of each phase of electricity in the control signals.

[0037] The output phase differences of the three single-phase AC power supplies are 120°. Connect the output terminals of the three single-phase AC power supplies into a triangular loop, and use the three vertices of the triangular loop as the three-phase output terminals; each terminal of the three-phase output terminals is respectively connected to the corresponding input terminal of the high-voltage permanent magnet synchronous motor.

[0038] In a specific embodiment, in a single-phase AC power supply, the number of phase-shifting transformers is 8, and the output current phase differences of the secondary windings of each phase-shifting transformer are 7.5°.

[0039] Specifically, the grid input voltage is three-phase 10 KV, which is transformed into 8 low-voltage, independent, phase-shifted secondary winding power supplies through phase-shifting transformers (isolation transformers, rectifier transformers); each secondary winding power supply is connected to a power unit, and after rectification, filtering, and inversion, a single-phase AC power supply is output. Thus, each phase is composed of 8 power units connected in series with an equivalent rated output voltage of 690 V, so that the rated value of the output phase voltage is 5520 V, and the equivalent line voltage of the three phases is 9561 V, close to 10 KV. Among them, the 8 secondary windings are connected in different connection methods to make the current phase differences between them 7.5°. The current waveforms reflected in the primary winding of the transformer are the superposition of the current waveforms of different phases of each secondary winding, forming a multi-step wave current waveform, eliminating a large number of harmonics, making the current waveform close to a sine wave, reducing the harmonic pollution to the grid, and the input power factor can be as high as 0.95.

[0040] In a specific embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the power unit is composed of a three-phase rectification link, a filtering link, and an inversion link;

[0041] The three-phase rectification link includes: after the three-phase AC input passes through the fuse protector, it is respectively connected to a three-phase bridge rectifier circuit composed of 6 diodes;

[0042] The filtering link includes: three capacitors connected in series in turn between the positive and negative outputs of the three-phase bridge rectifier circuit, and resistors respectively connected in parallel with the three capacitors. Due to the capacitance value deviation of the capacitors, the voltages across each capacitor may not be consistent during charging and operation. The parallel resistors can make the voltages of each capacitor tend to be balanced, avoiding damage to a certain capacitor due to excessive voltage; and after the circuit is powered off, the charges stored in the capacitors can be released through the parallel resistors, preventing residual charges from causing electric shock hazards, and at the same time preparing for the next start and reducing start-up noise.

[0043] The inverter link includes: the first IGBT, the second IGBT, the third IGBT, and the fourth IGBT, corresponding to Figure 2 S1, S2, S3, and S4 in; the collectors of the first IGBT and the third IGBT are both connected to the positive pole, the emitters of the second IGBT and the fourth IGBT are both connected to the negative pole, the emitter of the first IGBT and the collector of the second IGBT are both connected to the first port of the output terminal of the power unit, and the emitter of the third IGBT and the collector of the fourth IGBT are both connected to the second port of the output terminal of the power unit; the gates of each IGBT are respectively connected to the corresponding control signal lines of the PWM regulation module.

[0044] In a specific embodiment, in the three-phase rectification link, the diode is a 1800V rectifier diode; in the filtering link, the capacitor is an electrolytic capacitor of 400V and 90μf / A; in the inverter link, the withstand voltage value of the IGBT is 1700V.

[0045] In a specific embodiment, a diode is reversely connected in parallel with each of the first IGBT, the second IGBT, the third IGBT, and the fourth IGBT. In the inverter circuit, when the IGBT is turned off, the inductive load (the subsequent load may be inductive) generates an induced current that requires a path. At this time, the reversely connected diode provides a freewheeling path for the induced current to avoid generating too high a back electromotive force and protecting the IGBT from being broken down. When the load is in the power generation state (such as when the motor decelerates, etc.), the energy generated by the load can be fed back to the DC-side capacitor through the reversely connected diode, thereby improving the synchronization of the synchronous motor control and the efficiency of the drive system.

[0046] In a specific embodiment, the output terminals of three single-phase AC power supplies are connected into a triangular loop, specifically:

[0047] Connect the first output terminal of the first single-phase power supply to the second output terminal of the second single-phase power supply, connect the first output terminal of the second single-phase power supply to the second output terminal of the third single-phase power supply, and connect the first output terminal of the third single-phase power supply to the second output terminal of the first single-phase power supply to form a triangular loop.

[0048] In a specific embodiment, controlling the switches of the IGBTs in each power unit is specifically as follows:

[0049] Step 1: Extract the frequency, amplitude, and phase of each phase of electricity from the control signal of the main controller, and generate three-phase reference sine wave signals according to the frequency, amplitude, and phase;

[0050] Step 2: Determine the frequency of the triangular carrier signal according to the frequency of the reference sine wave signal and the set multiple, and determine the amplitude of the triangular carrier signal of each power unit in each phase according to the amplitude of the reference sine wave signal. Specifically, the ratio of the amplitude of the reference sine wave signal to the amplitude of the triangular carrier signal is set as the modulation ratio. The modulation ratio determines the duty cycle and waveform quality characteristics of the output signal. According to the voltage amplitude in the control signal of the main controller and the actual output voltage amplitude of each phase, adjust the modulation ratio so that the actual output voltage is closer to the target voltage. Further, the voltage value after filtering in the filtering link of the power unit usually still has a sine wave fluctuation. The amplitude of the sine wave fluctuation is different under different load conditions. The modulation ratio can be dynamically adjusted according to the amplitude of the fluctuation to make the output waveforms of each power unit more stable.

[0051] Step 3: Compare the triangular carrier signal of each power unit with the reference sine wave signal of the corresponding phase. When the amplitude of the reference sine wave signal is greater than the amplitude of the triangular carrier signal, the PWM pulse signal outputs a high level; otherwise, it outputs a low level. Generate the PWM pulse signals of each power unit one by one.

[0052] Step 4: Control the IGBT switch according to the PWM pulse signals of each power unit.

[0053] Specifically, the frequency of the triangular carrier signal should be much higher than the frequency of the reference sine wave signal. The higher the set multiple, the better the accuracy and effectiveness of the PWM modulation. In a PWM cycle, S1 and S2 are complementary-conducted, that is, when S1 is conducted, S2 is turned off; conversely, when S1 is turned off, S2 is conducted. Similarly, S3 and S4 are also complementary-conducted. The purpose of doing this is to avoid short-circuiting between the positive and negative poles. When the PWM signal is at a high level, the corresponding IGBT is conducted; when the PWM signal is at a low level, the corresponding IGBT is turned off. When outputting the positive half-cycle voltage, it is necessary to make S1 and S4 conducted, and S2 and S3 turned off. The current flows from the positive pole of the DC bus through S1, the load, and S4 back to the negative pole of the DC bus; when the amplitude of the reference sine wave signal is greater than the amplitude of the triangular carrier signal, a high level is output to S1 and S4. When outputting the negative half-cycle voltage, make S2 and S3 conducted, and S1 and S4 turned off. The current flows from the negative pole of the DC bus through S3, the load, and S2 back to the positive pole of the DC bus; when the amplitude of the reference sine wave signal is greater than the amplitude of the triangular carrier signal, a high level is output to S2 and S3.

[0054] In a specific embodiment, the three-phase reference sine wave signals are expressed as:

[0055]

[0056] where V a (t), V b (t), V c(t) respectively represent the reference sine wave signals of phases a, b, and c; A, B, and C are the corresponding amplitudes; are the corresponding phase shift angles respectively, t is the time, and f is the frequency.

[0057] In this specification, each embodiment is described in a progressive manner. The key point of each embodiment is to illustrate the differences from other embodiments. For the same or similar parts among the embodiments, reference can be made to each other. For the devices disclosed in the embodiments, since they correspond to the methods disclosed in the embodiments, the descriptions are relatively simple.
